Book ·
OSTI ID:5144383
This book presents papers and short communications concerning developments in the studies of processing, microstructure and properties of ceramic materials in the U.S.A. and China. Section I contains papers dealing with submicron powder preparation, powder control and sintering, microstructure control and orientation, controlled crystallization and microstructure of glass ceramics and grain boundary studies of ferroelectrics. Section II includes papers on reliability of ceramics, time dependent failure, toughening processes, microstructure and mechanical properties of glass ceramics, refractory materials, and silicon nitride ceramics. Section III includes papers on ferroelectric and piezoelectric materials, PLZT ceramics, ZNO varistors, and rare earth complex sulfides.
