Introduction of Ceramic Cold Isostatic Pressing
This article primarily discusses the cold isostatic pressing technology of ceramics. Using a liquid medium, such as water, oil, glycol-mixed liquid, etc., cold isostatic pressing applies high pressure to the powder to form a green body with adequate strength, and the powder is placed in a mold with a fixed shape to keep liquid from penetrating it.
Difference Between Cubic Zirconia and Natural Diamond
Synthetic cubic zirconia is a crystal that is hard, colorless, and optically faultless. It is the most popular diamond substitute due to its inexpensive cost, durability, and close resemblance to diamond in terms of optical and hardness properties. Synthetic cubic zirconia is known as "fake" diamonds. Accordingly, this article discusses the difference between natural and "fake" diamonds succinctly.
Particle Size Requirements for α-Alumina in Different Polishing Applications
Alumina has numerous applications in the polishing industry, including car paint polishing, sapphire polishing, glass lens polishing, wafer polishing, etc. This article discusses the particle size requirements for α-alumina as an abrasive in the four applications listed above.
Performance Comparison of Several Inert Bioceramics
This article discusses the performance of several inert bioceramics. Ceramic materials having stable chemical characteristics and good biocompatibility are referred to as inert bioceramics. Existing inert bioceramics include alumina, zirconia, and medical carbon materials, etc.
Bonding Strength Between Zirconia Base Crown and Veneering Porcelain
Improving the bonding strength between the zirconia base crown and the veneering porcelain is critical for the success of the restoration. This article compares the base crown surface treatment methods of the sandblasting group, the treatment agent group, and the control group, and concludes that sandblasting the zirconia green body prior to sintering can increase the bonding strength between the base crown and the veneering porcelain.
Manufacturing Method of Silicon Nitride Ceramic Slurry for 3D Printing
This article describes a method for manufacturing silicon nitride ceramic slurry for 3D printing. By selecting the proper resin, dispersant, and initiator type and addition ratio, it is possible to generate silicon nitride ceramic slurry with good dispersion, low viscosity, and has good curing effect.
An Alumina Ceramic Additive
Alumina ceramics are ceramics comprised of alumina as the primary component and have a specific level of light transmission. Alumina ceramics have become increasingly popular in the fields of manufacturing specialized instruments, lighting technology, wireless electronic technology, optics, and high-performance computing because they possess the qualities of high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, high insulation, and high strength of the ceramic itself, as well as the optical properties of glass and incomparable advantages of many other materials, such as low electrical conductivity.
A Method to Prevent Hydrolysis of Aluminum Nitride Ceramic Powder
Aluminum nitride is highly susceptible to hydrolyze in water and air, which lowers its thermal conductivity and brings great difficulties to the subsequent process. In order to address the issue that aluminum nitride ceramic powder is easily hydrolyzed in a humid environment, this article offers a simple method to prevent this situation.
Influence of Sintering Temperature on Alumina Ceramics
The density, flexural strength, hardness, water absorption, porosity, and electromechanical properties of alumina ceramics are all impacted by properly raising the sintering temperature. Nevertheless, high-temperature sintering has high requirements for sintering equipment and is energy-consuming. Hence, lowering the Al2O3 ceramics' sintering temperature can lower manufacturing costs, save energy, and is advantageous for future applications in other industries.
