Physical Properties at Elevated Temperature of Seven Hot-Pressed Ceramics

Description: Report presenting an investigation of seven hot-pressed ceramics for possible gas-turbine application. The properties, short-time tensile strength, thermal-shock resistance, coefficient of liner expansion, and density were determined. The ceramics tested were magnesium oxide, titanium carbide, zirconium carbide, boron carbide, silicon carbide with boron carbide, zircon, and zirconia with lime.

Properties of Tin Oxide: Base Ceramics

Description: From summary: "Various thermal and mechanical properties were measured for sintered tin oxide-matrix compacts which nominally were composed of 99 per cent by weight of tin oxide, SnO2, and one per cent by weight of zinc oxide ZnO...The tin oxide body might be expected to give good service under conditions of severe thermal shock and in an oxidizing atmosphere at temperatures up to 1500°F."

Automatic Thermogravimetric Analysis in Ceramics

Description: Ceramic investigators often find it desirable to know the weight of reactants either immediately after a given heating period or while the specimen is still at the elevated reacting temperature. The conventional gravimetric methods render either of these goals difficult if not actually impossible. Specimens often gain weight through adsorption of water or other reactions upon cooling to room temperature. Desiccators are employed but are not completely satisfactory. Repeated heating and weighing… more

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Green-State Ceramics

Description: Proton (¹H) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) imaging techniques are investigated as a means to nondestructively characterize green-state (unfired) Si{sub 3}N{sub 4} ceramic components. Spectroscopic results indicate that the organic additives used in the injection molding of ceramics behave as soft solids, with broad spectral peak widths (T₂ <0.5 ms) and moderate multicomponent spin-lattice relaxation rates (T{sub 1} ranging from 11 ms to 1 s). Because of the intrinsically different spectral ch… more

Evaluation of Oxidation-Resistant Ceramics for High-Temperature Reactor Elements

Description: Abstract: "As a possible aid in the selection of ceramic materials for use in the fabrication of high-temperature reactor elements, the reported properties of 23 refractory oxidation-resistance ceramic compounds are tabulated. The thermal stresses and heat throughout capacities for nine of these compounds are estimated for conditions of steady heat flow and uniform heat generation in the temperature range of 1500 to 2500 F. The compounds studied have macroscopic thermal-neutron-absorption cross… more

Properties of High-Temperature Ceramics and Cermets: Elasticity and Density at Room Temperature

Description: From Introduction: "The present paper contains detailed descriptions of the methods used in calculating both the elastic constants and the statistical parameters. These detailed descriptions have been included for two reasons: (1) To leave no doubt as to the exact procedure, and (2) to act as a guide to other workers who might wish to make similar determinations."

Three-Dimensional Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Green-State Ceramics

Description: Objective is the development of nuclear magnetic resonance imaging techniques and technology applicable to the nondestructive characterization of green-state ceramics. To this end, a three-dimensional (3-D) NMR imaging technique has been developed, based on a back-projection acquisition protocol in combination with image reconstruction techniques that are based on 3-D Radon transform inversion. The method incorporates the experimental flexibility to overcome many of the difficulties associated … more

Creep and Relaxation in Metals and Ceramics : A Bibliography, 1950-March 1959

Description: "This is a selected bibliography of books, journal articles and reports published on creep and relaxation in metals and ceramics from 1950 to March 1959. Particular attention has been paid to studies on or applicable to the consideration of creep and relaxation in beryllium oxide. Emphasis has alro been placed on studies of phenomenological materials behavior and high temperature studies."

Synthesis of Advanced Ceramic Compounds by Intercalation

Description: The U.S. Bureau of Mines investigated the synthesis of advanced ceramics (SiC+AlN, SiAlON, SiC+Al 203 , and Si 3N4 +AlN) from natural clays (kaolin, halloysite, or montmorillonite) by an intercalation and heat treatment method. This process includes the steps of refining a clay, intercalating organic chemicals into its layered structure, drying the intercalated mixture, firing the treated structure at certain temperature ranges in controlled atmospheres to form desired compounds, and grinding t… more

High Temperature Corrosion of Some Metals and Ceramics in Fluorinating Atmospheres

Description: Abstract: The results of this investigation leave little doubt that diffusion of the fluorinating gas along the grain boundaries of the nickel fluoride film to react at the metal-scale interface is the primary mechanism of attack upon pure nickel and its more promising alloys.
