Tailoring multiphase and composite ceramics; Proceedings of the Twenty-first University Conference on Ceramic Science, Pennsylvania State University, University Park, July 17-19, 1985

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5828997

The present conference considers topics in the processing and fabrication of multiphase ceramics, structure-property relations in multiphase ceramics, multiphase electroceramics, fiber- and whisker-reinforced composites, and high-temperature multiphase ceramics. Attention is given to the role of shear in composite sintering, phase relationships in Y-Si-Al-O-N ceramics, ceramic eutectic composites, CVD processing of ceramic-ceramic composites, porous and dense sol-gel composites, and displacive transformation mechanisms in zirconia. Also discussed are the microstructure and hardness of composite tool ceramics, electroceramic composites, composite thermistors, the processing of heterogeneous ceramics for dielectric applications, fiber-reinforced glasses and glass-ceramics, fiber-reinforced composites via the sol-gel route, the toughness anisotropy of an SiC/SiC laminate, ultrahigh-temperature ceramic composites, and the creep rupture of siliconized SiC.
