In this research, titanium carbide-nickel (TiC-Ni) composites, with tungsten carbide addition, were fabricated by using a powder metallurgy technique. The TiC-Ni mixtures containing between 0-15 wt. % tungsten carbide (WC), were compacted and then sintered at 1300°C and 1400°C, respectively. The phase formation and microstructure of the WC-added TiC-Ni composites have been investigated by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy techniques. Mechanical properties of these composites were assessed by an indentation technique. The X-ray diffraction patterns showed no evidence of tungsten rich phases in the sintered WC-added cermets. This indicates that during the sintering process, tungsten carbide particles were dissolved in metallic binder phase (Ni phase) via dissolution/re-precipitation process during liquid phase sintering. The liquid phase formed during sintering process could improve sinterability of TiC-based cermets i.e., it could lower sintering temperatures. The TiC-Ni composites typically exhibited a core-rim structure. The cores consisted of undissolved TiC particles enveloped by rims of (Ti, W)C solid solution phase. Hardness of TiC-Ni composites increased with WC content. Sintering temperature also had a slight effect on hardness values.

In this work, the piezoelectric material system of Pb (Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3 ceramics were synthesized by conventional solid state via high energy planetary mill reaction. This process were chosen in order to skip the calcinations and implement a single firing process which very effective to reduce the possibility of PbO loss. The effect of sintering parameters on structural behavior of pure PZT ceramic was discussed in detail. Comprehensive studies have been carried out in order get optimum parameter for sintering process, thus improved the performance of the pure PZT ceramics. Grain size properties of Pb (Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3 ceramics increased with increasing the sintering temperature and duration. However longer sintering condition (1200 °C, 3 hours) causes excessive PbO loss which leads to presence new phases in XRD analysis, promote grain growth behavior with inhomogenous microstructure and tend to have more pores.

In order to simplify the complexity of the conventional solid-state reaction process, Na+-β/β″-Al2O3 as a fast Na+-ionic conductive solid electrolyte was fabricated using a synthesizing-cum-sintering process combined with the double-zeta method, which is able to distribute a small amount of Li2O more homogeneously in the Na2O-Al2O3-Li2O system. Additionally, in order to enhance the ionic conductivity, MnO2 was used as a dopant to increase the Na+-ion concentration on the conduction plane in the Na+-β/β″-Al2O3 crystal structure. The relative sintered density increased with the synthesis temperature, ultimately reaching 99.7 % after synthesis at 1400 °C. The phase formation showed an overall β″-phase fraction over 90 %. The addition of MnO2 had a positive effect on the phase formation, but a negative influence on the relative density resulting from the grain growth promotion effect. The highest ionic conductivity was observed at 1.74 × 10-1 S/cm (350 °C) for the sample sintered at 1600 °C with 0.5 wt.% MnO2.

Al-rich sludge produced from industrial anodising and surface treatment processes had been tested in the fabrication of alumina-based materials, by using plastic extrusion as shaping technique. Long rods were produced using a vacuum screw extruder, by a careful control of all relevant processing parameters. Then, thick discs were obtained by cutting dried selected rods, to be tested as probes for sintering-dependent electrical properties. The sintering process was followed by common dilatometric/thermal analyses and results were interrelated with the evolution of electrical conductivity, estimated by impedance spectroscopy technique (IS). Results show that sintering-dependent morphological evolution up to 1300°C strongly affects the electrical behaviour of samples, and as a consequence IS seems to be a useful method to follow the firing process.

Gd-123 superconducting phase was prepared by solid-state reaction technique. Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) were added in Gd-123 superconducting matrix with different concentrations during the final sintering process to obtain (SWCNTs)[Formula: see text] GdBa2Cu3O[Formula: see text] (x = 0.0–0.1 wt.%) nanoparticles–superconductor composite. The influence of SWCNTs addition on the phase formation, structural, morphological, superconducting and dielectric properties of Gd-123 phase was investigated. It was found that SWCNTs addition enhance the phase formation and does not change the crystal structure of the host Gd-123 superconducting phase. The superconducting properties of Gd-123 samples were improved after the addition of SWCNTs up to x = 0.06 wt.% due to the enhancement in intergrain connectivity by healing up of micro-cracks and reduction of defects, while these properties were retarded with further increase in x. The dielectric response of (SWCNTs)[Formula: see text] Gd-123 superconducting phase with x = 0.0, 0.01, 0.04, 0.05, 0.06 and 0.1 wt.% was measured from 100 KHz to 5 MHz at 77 K. The results reveal that for both real ([Formula: see text]) and imaginary ([Formula: see text]) parts of dielectric constant, the frequency of dispersion increased by increasing SWCNTs amount up to 0.06 wt.%, then this frequency shifted to lower values for x [Formula: see text] 0.06 wt.%. The results were discussed according to the presence and interference of both interfacial and dipolar polarizations.
