For fixed dentures, new generations of zirconia with diverse characteristics and design choices are of significant interest. Although in vitro studies and finite element analysis (FEA) studies have been published, comprehension of various new methods of material testing and analysis remains insufficient. Young’s modulus and Poisson’s ratio of the desired materials must be available for investigators to validate FEA investigations that are accompanied by mechanical testing. The aim of this narrative review was to find recent FEA studies that report these values for newly developed commercial CAD/CAM zirconia restorative materials and compile them in a data list. A PubMed search was performed (English articles; 2018–2023; keywords: FEA, finite element, zirconia). Full-text articles (157) were examined, including studies (36) reporting the commercial materials’ names, Young’s modulus, and Poisson’s ratio. Only 21 studies had the source of their values referenced. A list of the materials and values used in these studies was compiled. Researchers are highly recommended to trace back references to determine the origins of these values for commercial materials. New research is encouraged to test the ever expanding list of new commercial esthetic monolithic CAD/CAM zirconia materials, as well as their different translucencies, to report their Young’s modulus and Poisson’s ratio.

Layered silicates with a montmorillonite structure are widely used in various fields related to adsorption, gas and water treatment, catalysis, cosmetology and medicine. Under conditions of directed hydrothermal synthesis, montmorillonites with the specified characteristics can be obtained. The influence of the preparation method for montmorillonites of two compositions (Mg3Si4O10(OH)2 H2O and Na1.5Al0.5Mg1.5Si4O10(OH)2 H2O) on their sorption properties, moisture absorption, porous textural characteristics and surface properties has been studied. The nature of the initial reagents, the pH of the reaction medium and the synthesis temperature were chosen as the variable synthesis parameters. It has been established that the synthesis conditions significantly affect the properties of montmorillonite, which, in turn, determines the possibilities of using the materials obtained in specific areas.

Ceramic ZnO-SnO2-Fe2O3 powders and transparent coatings on glasses prepared using the non-isothermal polymer-salt method demonstrate a strong ability to generate chemically active oxygen species under UV and visible irradiation. Crystal structures and morphologies of these materials were studied using the XRD and the SEM analysis. It was found that there are significant differences in the crystal structure of ceramic powders and thin coatings. The powders consist of randomly oriented oxide nanocrystals of size ~47 nm. The strong orientation of the ZnO nanocrystals due to their interaction with the glass substrate is observed in the coating structure. Experimental data show that thin ceramic coatings are transparent (~90%) in the visible spectral range and the band gap of the ceramic material is 3.44 eV. The band gap value of this multi-component ceramic material is described sufficiently using Verlag’s law. Ceramic powders and coatings demonstrate the intensive photogeneration of reactive oxygen species, both in liquid and air. High photocatalytic activity of ZnO-SnO2-Fe2O3 ceramic coatings and powders was observed upon the oxidation of the diazo dye, Chicago Sky Blue. In the presence of transparent photocatalytic coating, the value of the constant rate of the dye photodecomposition was high (k = 0.056 min−1). It was found that, in spite of their short life time, photogenerated reactive oxygen species demonstrate the ability to decompose dye molecules located up to a distance of 0.5 mm from the surface of ceramic coating. Obtained experimental results suggest that the prepared ceramic materials are promising for different practical applications of the photocatalytic materials.

The modification of ceramic PEO coatings developed for friction units is in trend of modern research aimed at the improvement of friction and wear. This study presents ceramic coatings formed on AlZn5.5MgCu aluminum alloy by microarc oxidation (PEO) in a one-stage technological process with inclusions of Al-Cu-Fe quasi-crystals. The technology of rubbing quasi-crystals into the surface of the coating during final polishing was also used. Friction and wear tests, followed by analysis of the surface and cross-sections by SEM microscopy, showed that quasicrystals affect the coating structure and frictional characteristics. The addition of a small amount of modifier to the electrolyte (0.5 percent), as well as rubbing-in technology, can reduce the coefficient of friction (up to 16 percent) and wear rate (up to 43 times) compared to pure ceramic coatings. More modifier provides a negative result.

The purpose of this work was to investigate the effect of the burning environment on the properties and phase composition of clinker-based ceramic specimens made from loam with diatomite and bentonite clay in order to develop technological parameters for the manufacture of clinker products. The main raw material used for the experiments was local fusible loam from the Almaty deposit, which is the basis for the production of 75 and 100 grade ceramic bricks. Diatomite from Utesai deposit (Aktobe region) and highly plastic bentonite clay from Darbazin deposit (Turkestan region) were used as additives. Loam and bentonite clay were applied after grinding and sieving through a 1 mm sieve. Diatomite was applied after grinding and milling until it had completely passed through a 0.315 mm sieve. The raw materials are mixed after dosing, and then water is added in the amount required until a pliable mass is obtained. To investigate the properties of the products, standard cylinder samples were prepared with a diameter of 50 mm and a height of 50 mm. The cylinder samples were pressed on a hydraulic press at a pressure of 2–4 kN. The samples were dried in a desiccator at 95–100 °C for 2 h. After drying, the products were burning in a muffle kiln. The analysis of the properties of the burned products showed that the optimum ratio in the ceramic mixture of loam and diatomite to loam and bentonite clay is 85%:15%. After burning in a slightly oxidising environment at 1170 °C, the ceramic specimens correspond to Class 2 for the medium-density and compressive strength grades M 400 and M 500 (GOST 530-2012 (Government standard). X-ray diffractometric analysis showed that the products contain augite, quartz and anorthite as crystalline phases, with the former predominating. After burning in a reducing atmosphere, at 1170 °C, the properties of the samples have higher values compared to the samples burning in a weakly oxidising atmosphere. The resulting properties, according to the regulations, are characteristic of clinker bricks (DIN V 105-1 (technical requirements for clinker façade bricks). After burning in a reducing environment, the phase composition of the products changes qualitatively; in addition to augite and quartz, albite, diopside, orthoclase and haematite are present in the samples.
本工作的目的是研究燃烧环境对由壤土、硅藻土和膨润土制成的熟料基陶瓷试样的性能和相组成的影响,以制定生产熟料产品的工艺参数。实验使用的主要原料是阿拉木图矿床的当地易熔壤土,这是生产75和100级陶瓷砖的基础。Utesai矿床(阿克托别地区)的硅藻土和Darbazin矿床(突厥斯坦地区)的高塑性膨润土粘土被用作添加剂。壤土和膨润土粘土在研磨并通过1mm筛网筛分后施用。硅藻土在研磨和研磨后施用,直到其完全通过0.315mm的筛网。配料后混合原料,然后按所需量加入水,直到获得柔韧的物质。为了研究产品的性能,制备了直径为50 mm、高度为50 mm的标准圆柱体样品。圆柱体样品在2–4 kN的液压机上压制。样品在95–100°C的干燥器中干燥2小时。干燥后,产品在马弗窑中燃烧。烧成产物的性能分析表明,在壤土和硅藻土的陶瓷混合物中,壤土和膨润土的最佳配比为85%∶15%。在1170°C的轻微氧化环境中燃烧后,陶瓷试样符合中等密度和抗压强度等级M 400和M 500的2级(GOST 530-2012(政府标准))。X射线衍射分析表明,产物以辉石、石英和钙长石为晶相,以前者为主。在1170°C的还原气氛中燃烧后,与在弱氧化气氛中燃烧的样品相比,样品的性能具有更高的值。根据规定,由此产生的性能是熟料砖的特性(DIN V 105-1(熟料外墙砖的技术要求)。在还原环境中燃烧后,产物的相组成发生了质的变化;除辉石和石英外,样品中还存在钠长石、透辉石、正长石和赤铁矿。

This study regards the development of lightweight geopolymer composites through the valorization of various construction and demolition wastes. Brick waste was utilized as the sole aluminosilicate precursor for the geopolymerization reactions, expanded polystyrene and polyurethane wastes were used as artificial lightweight aggregates, and short polyethylene fibers developed from CDWs reinforced the geopolymer matrix. The curing conditions of the geopolymer synthesis were optimized to deliver a robust geopolymer matrix (T = 25–80 °C, t = 24–72 h). Both raw materials and products were appropriately characterized with XRD and SEM, while the mechanical performance was tested through compressive strength, flexural strength, Poisson’s ratio and Young’s modulus measurements. Then, a comprehensive durability investigation was performed (sorptivity, wet/dry cycles, freeze/thaw cycles, and exposure to real weather conditions). In contrast to polyurethane waste, the introduction of expanded polystyrene (0.5–3.0% wt.) effectively reduced the final density of the products (from 2.1 to 1.0 g/cm3) by keeping sufficient compressive strength (6.5–22.8 MPa). The PE fibers could enhance the bending behavior of lightweight geopolymers by 24%; however, a geopolymer matrix–fiber debonding was clearly visible through SEM analysis. Finally, the durability performance of CDW-based geopolymers was significantly improved after the incorporation of expanded polystyrene aggregates and polyethylene fibers mainly concerning freeze/thaw testing. The composite containing 1.5% wt. expanded polystyrene and 2.0% v/v PE fibers held the best combination of properties: Compr. Str. 13.1 MPa, Flex. Str. 3.2 MPa, density 1.4 g/cm3, Young’s modulus 1.3 GPa, and sorptivity 0.179 mm/min0.5.

The paper studies the influence of diamond grinding, lapping, and polishing on the surface layer and defectiveness of the Al2O3/TiC and SiAlON ceramic samples. The index of defectiveness ID, which is the product of the defect density and the defective layer’s thickness (Rt), and a method for its evaluation are proposed to quantify the defectiveness of the ceramic surfaces. Lapping reduces the Rt parameter by 2.6–2.7 times when the density of defects was decreased by 2 times. After polishing, the Rt parameter decreases to 0.42 μm for Al2O3/TiC and 0.37 μm for SiAlON samples. The density of defects decreases many times after polishing: up to 0.005 and 0.004, respectively. The crack resistance of the polished samples increased by 5–7%. The volumetric wear of polished samples decreased by 1.5–1.9 times compared to the ground ones after 20 min of abrasion wear. The polished samples show a decrease in the coefficient of friction at 800 °C and a decrease in the volumetric wear by 1.5 and 1.3 times, respectively, compared to the ground ones after 200 m of friction distance. The volumetric wear at high-temperature friction of sliding for polished specimens was 55% and 42% less than for the ground ones, respectively.

The phase formation processes in 0.25ZnO–0.25Al2O3–0.25WO3–0.25Bi2O3 ceramics with variation in the thermal annealing temperature were evaluated in this study. According to the obtained data on the phase composition dependent on the annealing temperature, the phase transformation dynamics, which can be written in the form of ZnO/Bi2O3/WO3/Al2O3 → ZnBi38O60/ZnO/Bi2WO6/WO3 → Bi2Al4O9/ZnBi38O60/Bi2WO6/ZnO/WO3 → ZnWO4/Bi2WO6/ZnAl2O4/ZnO → ZnWO4/Bi2WO6/ZnAl2O4 → Bi2WO6/ZnWO4/ZnAl2O4 → ZnAl2O4/Bi2WO6/Bi2W2O9, were established. It has been found that the formation of phases of complex oxides of the ZnWO4, Bi2WO6 and Bi2W2O9 types in the composition of ceramics leads to an increase in the density of ceramics up to 8.05–8.10 g/cm3, which positively affects the shielding efficiency and strength characteristics. According to the data on the change in strength characteristics, it was found that a change in the density of ceramics from 6.3 to 8.05–8.10 g/cm3 leads to strengthening and an increase in the crack resistance of ceramics by 75–80%, which indicates a high strength of ceramics and their increased resistance to external influences. As shown by the evaluation of the shielding characteristics, an increase in the density of ceramics due to a phase composition change leads to an increase in the shielding efficiency and a decrease in gamma intensity by a factor of 3–3.5. At the same time, on the base of the data presented, it can be concluded that ceramics obtained in the range of 900–1100 °C have both high shielding characteristics and high strength and resistance to external influences.

It has been found that the formation of phases of complex oxides of the ZnWO4, Bi2WO6 and Bi2W2O9 types in the composition of ceramics leads to an increase in the density of ceramics up to 8.05–8.10 g/cm3, which positively affects the shielding efficiency and strength characteristics. According to the data on the change in strength characteristics, it was found that a change in the density of ceramics from 6.3 to 8.05–8.10 g/cm3 leads to strengthening and an increase in the crack resistance of ceramics by 75–80%, which indicates a high strength of ceramics and their increased resistance to external influences. As shown by the evaluation of the shielding characteristics, an increase in the density of ceramics due to a phase composition change leads to an increase in the shielding efficiency and a decrease in gamma intensity by a factor of 3–3.5. At the same time, on the base of the data presented, it can be concluded that ceramics obtained in the range of 900–1100 °C have both high shielding characteristics and high strength and resistance to external influences.","PeriodicalId":33263,"journal":{"name":"Ceramics-Switzerland","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2023-03-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46496684","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Because new zirconia materials are constantly being developed, the aim was to identify and qualitatively synthesize research on how processing and time-related factors affect the properties of high translucent (HT) zirconia intended for monolithic restorations. Cochrane Library, PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and reference lists were searched for in vitro and clinical studies. Eligibility and risk of bias were assessed. A synthesis of 142 publications was performed. HT 3Y-TZP was the most common, followed by 5YSZ, 4YSZ, and multilayer. In the laboratory, HT 3Y-TZP should be sintered according to the manufacturer’s recommendation and polished before glazing to favour strength, roughness, and wear behaviour. In the clinic, polishing is necessary after grinding to favour roughness and aging resistance. Over time, when using hydrothermal aging, t–m phase transformation and reduced translucency are expected, without affecting the strength and roughness. The strength of 4YSZ and 5YSZ is unaffected. However, the time-related methods are of questionable clinical significance. The evidence of all other factors’ effects on the properties of HT zirconia is lacking or limited; thus, these factors are of relevance for future research. There is a high heterogeneity of study designs and methods, and the results are brand-dependent.
由于新的氧化锆材料正在不断开发中,其目的是识别和定性地综合研究加工和时间相关因素如何影响用于单片修复的高透光(HT)氧化锆的性能。检索了Cochrane图书馆、PubMed、Scopus、Web of Science和参考文献列表中的体外和临床研究。评估了资格和偏倚风险。对142份出版物进行了综合。HT 3Y-TZP最常见,其次是5YSZ、4YSZ和多层。在实验室中,HT 3Y-TZP应根据制造商的建议进行烧结,并在上釉前进行抛光,以提高强度、粗糙度和磨损性能。在临床上,研磨后必须进行抛光,以提高粗糙度和抗老化性。随着时间的推移,当使用水热老化时,预计会发生t–m相变和半透明性降低,而不会影响强度和粗糙度。4YSZ和5YSZ的强度不受影响。然而,与时间相关的方法具有值得怀疑的临床意义。所有其他因素对HT氧化锆性能影响的证据缺乏或有限;因此,这些因素对未来的研究具有相关性。研究设计和方法存在高度异质性,结果依赖于品牌。

The problem of the formation and estimation of a thermoradiant and temperature field in ceramics Thermal- Environmental-Barrier Coatings (TBC/EBC) has been considered with complex heat transfer but under the influence of the penetrating intense radiant component. The authors proposed to analyze not only TBC but also EBC from the point of view of the optics of semitransparent scattering and absorbing media in the range of ~0.4–4 μm of external radiant action. This paradigm allows us to continue the study of ceramic fibers embedded in ceramic matrix CMCs (C/C, C/SiC, SiC/SiC) as a traditional class of opaque materials. However, at the same time, mullites, Al2O3/Al2O3 have been reviewed as a class of semitransparent elements for designing CMCs. The relevance of studying the effect of oriented fibers on the formation of thermoradiation and temperature fields in a semitransparent material was noted. Modeling the scattering asymmetry coefficient influence (scattering phase function) on the generation of the subsurface thermal radiation source was carried out. The methodology for calculating the thermoradiative field in a semitransparent medium (with relative absorption, scattering indexes, and scattering asymmetry coefficient) was used under a one-dimensional two-flux model as the first approximation for solving the radiative heat transfer equation. Calculations of temperature profiles in opaque and semitransparent ceramics were presented under heat load typical for the combustion chambers operating regime of diesel and gas turbine engines.
