Zirconium nitride nano-particulate reinforced Alon composites: Fabrication, mechanical properties and toughening mechanisms

Mechanical and In Vitro Biological Performance of Graphene Nanoplatelets Reinforced Calcium Silicate Composite

“…The increase in the modulus of elasticity of 0.5 and 1 wt.% GNP/CS samples is due to the high modulus of elasticity of graphene, the high relative density, and smaller grain sizes. On the other hand, porosity has been reported to be a major factor governing the modulus of elasticity for some ceramic materials, with greater porosity correlated with a lower modulus of elasticity [43] . This explains the reduction of the modulus of elasticity in 1.5 and 2 wt.% GNP/CS samples.…”

Ion size, loading, and charge determine the mechanical properties, surface apatite, and cell growth of silver and tantalum doped calcium silicate

“…The increase of the elastic modulus of TCS5 could be due to the higher relative density, and smaller grain size in comparison with other specimens. 50 This explains the reduction of the elastic modules of TCS10 and TCS15 specimens. With increasing amounts of Ta in the CS structure, the Young's modulus decreased to values of 121 AE 7 GPa and 118 AE 5 GPa for TCS10 and TCS15 respectively.…”

Effect of surface modification on silicon carbide particles with nanocrystalline spinel LZO for enhanced damping and mechanical property

“…So far, various modification techniques exist in the literature such as formation of SiO 2 by photocatalytic oxidation of SiC surface with TiO 2 [18], TiO 2 coated b-SiC sustained by cobalt catalyst for FischerTropsch synthesis [19] and coating with inorganic materials like Al 2 O 3 by sol-gel technique [11,20]. The excellent melting point (2715°C) and high corrosion resistance of zirconia (ZrO 2 ) make it an important ceramic for toughening and a promising candidate for the high temperature applications [21][22][23]. http Metal matrix composites (MMCs) having high stiffness, better damping capacity and mechanical properties are extremely desirable in automobile, aerospace, electronic packaging, construction, internal combustion engine components, power transmission tower and a variety of recreational products are most promising where structural elements are exposed to dynamic loads [24][25][26][27][28].…”
