Impact of Sol–Gel Processing on Dielectric and Energy Storage Properties of BaTiO3 Nanoceramics
Abstract: Barium titanate (BaTiO3) is a widely studied ferroelectric material because of its high dielectric permittivity and strong potential for electrostatic energy storage applications. In this study, BaTiO3 nanoceramics were synthesized using a controlled sol–gel processing route to investigate the influence of synthesis conditions on their dielectric relaxation and energy storage performance. The synthesized powders were calcined and subsequently sintered at temperatures ranging from 1100°C to 1300°C. Structural analysis using X-ray …

Dielectric Studies of 0.5Ba0.8Ca0.2TiO3.0.5CaCu3Ti4O12 Nanoceramic Fabricated by Chemo-mechanical Process
Abstract: The present investigation is aimed toward investigate a straightforward, inexpensive, and environmentally friendly chemo-mechanical method for preparing high-dielectric materials, specifically 0.5Ba0.8Ca0.2TiO3.0.5CaCu3Ti4O12 (BCT-CCTO), by combining metal nitrate combustion with solid TiO2 powder and titanium isopropoxide, Ti (OR)4. The composite was prepared by the mixing of individual materials of Ba0.8Ca0.2TiO3 and CaCu3Ti4O12 through the chemo-mechanical method. Initially, 99% pure Ba (NO3)3, Cu (NO3)2∙3H2O, TiO2 and glycine were taken in their stoichiometry ratios. …

New Generation Nanocrystalline Silicon Carbide for Implants and Prostheses
Abstract: Nanocrystalline silicon carbide (SiC) is an aspirant material for artificial heart valves primarily due to its low weight, high strength, acute hardness, wear resistance, inertness (SiC does not react with biological fluids), and deterioration resistance. Oxide ceramic materials such as alumina (Al2O3) and zirconia (ZrO2) are often used for medical applications like implants and prostheses because of their terrific biocompatibility and high wear resistance. Unfortunately, oxide ceramics cannot be used …

Interfacial and Tribo-Mechanical Performance of a TiO₂–Castor Oil Polymeric Nanofluid During Sustainable Machining of AISI 316L Stainless Steel Under MQL Conditions
Abstract: This research examines the tribo-mechanical performance and interfacial film characteristics of a TiO₂-reinforced castor-oil polymeric nanofluid during the turning of AISI 316L stainless steel under minimum-quantity lubrication (MQL). A Taguchi L9 orthogonal array was utilized to assess the synergistic effects of cutting speed, depth of cut, and coolant composition on surface integrity, while machining experiments were performed under dry, conventional, and TiO₂-nanofluid lubrication techniques. ANOVA and multiple-regression modeling were used …
