Researchers at IIT Bombay have developed predictive models capable of calculating sintering-induced shrinkage in 3D printed ...

Ceramic materials are ubiquitous in the world of construction. Building materials such as cement, bricks, tiles, or electrical insulators like porcelain are all ceramic products that we rely on in our ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Ceramics are an important class of materials with widespread applications in electronics and energy storage due to their high thermal, mechanical, and chemical stability.

ZnO varistor ceramics were synthesised by cold sintering/spark plasma sintering and post-annealing treatment. Intriguingly, the ZnO varistor ceramics present ultrahigh potential gradient, high ...

A sintering process that can produce 0.5m3 (1.6ft3) parts in around 10h is the focus of a three-year, £650,000 UK project that could lead to aerospace components 50% lighter than today. The automated, ...

Material sciences researchers are often looking for ways to improve the strength and viability of materials for a wide range of industries, including the construction industry. The need for processes ...

Researchers have developed advanced mathematical models and hybrid machine learning tools that accurately predict how ...
