Iron ore sintering plays a pivotal role in steel production by agglomerating fine iron ore particles into a porous mass suitable for blast furnace use. The optimisation of this process is critical not ...

A new techno-economic analysis, by a team led by a researcher from WMG at the University of Warwick, shows that the energy intensive ceramic industry would gain both financial and environmental ...

While the method of flash sintering can reduce the temperatures and time required to process ceramics in comparison with traditional methods, the technique often ...

Scientists have developed a technique for creating high-density ceramic materials that requires far lower temperatures than current techniques -- and takes less than a second, as opposed to hours.

Researchers have found that applying a small electric field results in faster formation of ceramic products during manufacture at lower temperatures, and enhances the strength of the ceramic itself.

Controlled and rapid solid-state sintering process for a wide range of powder and particulate materials. It can consolidate a wide-range of metallic, ceramic, and functional materials. Capability to ...

Dublin, Sept. 21, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Global Piezoelectric Ceramics Market (2023 Edition): Analysis By Type, Application, End-User Industry: Market Insights and Forecast" report has been ...

Ordinarily, when ceramic items are manufactured, the raw material has to be fired in a kiln at temperatures exceeding 1,000 ºC (1,832 ºF). Needless to say, it's a very energy-intensive process. Now, ...
