In this study, 3D multilayer scaffolds were fabricated by sol–gel and polymeric replication methods. The principal objective was to fabricate scaffolds based on a core of Ca2SiO4/Ca2P6O17 (C2S/P6) to obtain mechanical resistance following by external layers with composition Ca2SiO4 (C2S) doped with several amount of SrCO3 (Sr = 0–2.5 wt%) to generate modulated bioactivity.
This scaffold was characterized from the physical, chemical and mineralogical point of view. Finally, the effect of the dopant on the surface morphology and how it affects the bioactivity was carried out according to the ISO 23317.2017 standard.
The obtained scaffolds exhibited an open porosity of 80–90% and a maximum mechanical strength of 1.2 ± 0.1 MPa. The scaffolds containing Sr2+ demonstrated bioactivity that could be modulated according to the Sr content. The results revealed that bioactivity occurred only when the scaffolds were coated with outer layers of strontium. Scaffolds doped with 1 and 1.5 wt% Sr displayed bioactivity after 3 days in simulated body fluid (SBF), while the 2.5 wt% Sr sample did not show bioactivity at any time.

Selective laser sintering (SLS) is a novel additive manufacturing technique that has been recently applied to the sintering of powdered materials. In this work, radiation with laser was applied to a ceramic oxide powder blend to develop semi-transparent ceramic spheres. The powders bed consisted of different ceramics oxides which were irradiated with a continuous CO2 laser (λ = 10.6 μm) with a power density of 155 W/cm2, at both; static (punctually radiated) and non-static (dynamic) conditions. X-ray diffraction confirmed the presence of silicate phases, “gehlenite type”. Punctually radiated samples show semi-spheres with a completely sintered surface without visible cracks, however there were aggregates that did not fuse in the matrix. On the contrary, the use of dynamic radiation decreased the number of aggregates in the ceramic spheres, and a homogeneous sintered surface was obtained. Raman spectra show the introduction of the ceramic oxides into the silica matrix when the powder blend is punctually radiated with laser, while the dynamic parameters aid the crystallization of the silica matrix. Therefore, laser sintering using a continuous laser source with non-static radiation is a better alternative to produce semi-transparent ceramic spheres from a ceramic oxide powder bed with greater densification and better optical properties in transmittance–reflectance.

In this current research endeavor, a comprehensive exploration into the properties of ceramic coatings has been undertaken, utilizing bauxite, talc, and kaolin clay. The primary focus lies in the meticulous analysis of the mechanical strength of ceramic proppants. The proppant raw material employed is kaolin clay, treated through a dry coating technique and subsequently sintered at 1300 °C. Evaluation of sample performance is based on the establishment of coating and substrate shrinkage. Shrinkage and density assessments are separately conducted for the coating mixtures and substrate. X-ray diffraction (XRD) is employed to discern the crystalline phases within the coatings, while structural characterization is facilitated through scanning electron microscopy (SEM) coupled with energy dispersive X-ray (EDX). Density and mechanical strength of proppants are meticulously investigated using picnometry and crush tests. The performances of the coated and uncoated samples were compared and investigated. Interestingly, the coated proppants demonstrate slightly higher density than their uncoated counterparts. Remarkably, the specimen featuring a coating composition of bauxite (72 wt%) + clay (25 wt%) + talc (3 wt%) yields optimal results for mechanical strength. The sole crystalline phase detected in the coating is mullite, with a minimum coating thickness of 10 μm.

The synthesis progression of the crystalline silica polymorph tridymite has been investigated through the crystallization evolution using X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique. The impact of various synthesis variables on the crystallization of tridymite was examined, including the crystallinity of the raw material, the type and concentration of the mineralizer used, as well as the effect of the maximum furnace temperature and soaking time. The evolution of the crystal structure was analyzed using X-ray diffraction, and the best-synthesized final product was characterized by X-ray fluorescence, scanning electron microscopy and specific surface area. Due to the inherently sluggish nature of the tridymite transition, it was not possible to synthesize tridymite without the presence of an alkali in the composition. While all the variables studied influenced the synthesis of tridymite to some extent, the concentration and nature of the nucleation agent were identified as the key parameters to optimize the synthesis process. As a result of this research, a synthetic silica product with high crystalline tridymite phase content was successfully obtained, which could be deemed suitable for use as a secondary reference material in the quantification of crystalline silica, given the lack of reference materials for this kind of structure.
