Recent studies of mullite formation in clays and clay-based vitreous ceramic systems are
reviewed. In such systems, mullite crystals grow in a viscous aluminosilicate liquid, as …

Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopic investigation has been carried out to study the
structural changes and coordination of Al and Si in the mullite system as a function of …

Iron ore tailings (IOTs) and coal gasification slag (CGS) were used to prepare novel
ceramsites via high-temperature sintering. The IOTs were activated by NaOH to form a …

Dense mullite ceramics were successfully produced at temperatures below 1300° C from
amorphous SiO2‐coated gamma‐Al2O3 particle nanocomposites (AS‐gammaA). This …

Mullite type, I and III precursors were prepared by a sol-gel process using tetraethoxysilane
and aluminum sec.-butoxide as starting materials. The precursors were treated by 15 h …

Oxide-based ceramic matrix composites with a highly porous mullite matrix and Nextel™
720 alumino silicate fibers have been fabricated by infiltrating filaments with a mullite …

The idea of writing this book came to us when, while working on a review on ceramic
powder preparation, we discovered that there was apparently no single and compact …

The addition of waste in building materials is a technical and economical alternative for
modern construction. Self-leveling mortar (SLM) is a material used in floors because it is …

Abstract α-Alumina (alpha-alumina) powder prepared by two different techniques along with
one commercially available alumina powder was used separately in the kaolinite system to …

A low-cost and facile route to the synthesis of bimetallic glycolato zirconate (Na2Zr
(C2H4O2) 3) and homometallic glycolato cerate (Ce (C2H4O2)), which can be used as …
