Fully dense HfC and TaC-based composites containing 15 vol% TaSi2 or MoSi2 were produced by hot pressing at 1750–1900 °C. TaSi2 enhanced the sinterability of the composites and nearly fully dense materials were obtained at lower temperatures than in the case of MoSi2-containing ones. The TaC-based composites performed better than HfC composites at room temperature, showing values of mechanical strength up to 900 MPa and a fracture toughness of 4.7 MPa·m1/2. However, preliminary oxidation tests carried out in air at 1600 °C revealed that HfC-based composites have a superior high temperature stability compared to TaC-based materials.

Insufficient mechanical strength and wide pore size distribution of nanofibrous membranes are the key hindrances for their concrete applications in membrane distillation. In this work, various post-treatment methods such as dilute solvent welding, vapor welding, and cold-/hot-pressing processes were used to enhance the physical properties of styrene–acrylonitrile (SAN) nanofiber membranes fabricated by the modified electrospinning process. The effects of injection rate of welding solution and a working distance during the welding process with air-assisted spraying on characteristics of SAN nanofiber membranes were investigated. The welding process was made less time-consuming by optimizing system parameters of the electroblowing process to simultaneously exploit residual solvents of fibers and hot solvent vapor to reduce exposure time. As a result, the welded SAN membranes showed considerable enhancement in mechanical robustness and membrane integrity with a negligible reduction in surface hydrophobicity. The hot-pressed SAN membranes obtained the highest mechanical strength and smallest mean pore size. The modified SAN membranes were used for the desalination of synthetic seawater in a direct contact membrane distillation (DCMD). As a result, it was found that the modified SAN membranes performed well (>99.9% removal of salts) for desalination of synthetic seawater (35 g/L NaCl) during 30 h operation without membrane wetting. The cold-/hot-pressing processes were able to improve mechanical strength and boost liquid entry pressure (LEP) of water. In contrast, the welding processes were preferred to increase membrane flexibility and permeation.

The work presents the possibility of application of inexpensive iron-base powders in the production of sintered diamond tools. It has been shown that ball-milled Fe-Ni-Cu-Sn-C and Fe-Mn-Cu-Sn-C powders can be consolidated to a virtually pore-free condition by hot pressing at 900°C. The as-consolidated materials are characterised by a combination of high hardness, mechanical strength and resistance to abrasion. Their properties can be widely modified by changing the milling time.

Nab-alumina is a two- dimensional ionic conductor in which conducting planes of Na+ ion are separated by insulating spinel block layers. For practical use, Nab- alumina needs not only high ionic conductivity but also mechanical reliability. Therefore, we prepared preferentially oriented Nab-alumina ceramics by hot pressing and evaluated the ionic conductivity and mechanical strength. The ionic conductivity perpendicular to the c-axis-oriented plane was five times higher than that parallel to c-axis. From the preferentially oriented Nab-alumina ceramics three types of test pieces were cut for a three-point bending test. In one type of test piece, the longest side was parallel to the hot-pressing direction, while the longest sides were perpendicular to that direction in the other types of test pieces. The latter test pieces showed mechanical strength 1.5 times that of the former.

Porous hydroxyapatite/tricalcium phosphate composite block has been prepared using a hydrothermal hot pressing (HHP) technique to achieve having a high mechanical strength and controlled biodegradability. The SEM result of the sample shows that the pore sizes are ranged from 100µm to 300µm. The observed X-ray powder diffraction pattern of the sample after sintered 1200oC is composed of hydroxyapatite and tricalciumphosphste.

Low-temperature sintering (under 350°C) of hydroxyapatite was attempted by a hydrothermal hot-pressing technique. The effects of borosilicate glass addition on the characteristics of the solidified body (mechanical strength, microstructure, crystal structure, pore distribution, etc.) and on the densification process during hydrothermal reaction were investigated. The borosilicate glass increased the mechanical strength of the solidified body; compression of 50% content of apatite was 2100 kg/cm2. It is also shown that water acts as a good catalyzer during solidification under hydrothermal conditions, and micropores can increase toughness of the solidified body due to the adsorption of stress. These hydrothermal hot-pressing solidification processes are so similar to sintering with liquid phase under pressure that the initial kinetics was discussed by means of the velocity measurement of shrinkage rate. In addition, these reactions may proceed in water, and are then discussed from the point of view of a heterogeneous reaction between powder and aqueous solution. It was proposed that the solidification process was due to viscous flow with rearrangement of grains in the solidified body, and the rate-determining step followed a core model of extraction from solid to solution.
