A Study on the Sintering Behavior of Al2O3/Y2O3 Doped ZrO2 Composites
Abstract: AbstractZirconia ceramics are widely used as cutting tools due to their very high hardness, excellent fracture toughness, flexural strength, and wear-resistance properties. Tetragonal zirconia exhibits better mechanical properties due to the transformation toughening of zirconia. The superior mechanical properties in zirconia are mainly due to higher density and controlled microstructure. In the present work, an attempt has been made to prepare near full-dense zirconia bodies with controlled microstructure by optimizing …

Investigation of Dielectric Properties of Lead-Free BaTiO3 Ceramic at Different Sintering Temperatures
Abstract: In the present study, Barium titanate (BaTiO3) was produced using the conventional solid-state sintering technique at three distinct sintering temperatures: 1000, 1100, and 1200°C. It was confirmed by the X-ray diffraction pattern that the perovskite phase was formed without secondary peaks and that the presence of the tetragonal phase was observed near room temperature. Upon conducting a frequency- dependent dielectric study, it was found that ceramic sintered at 1100°C exhibited …

Structural, Optical, Surface, and Gas-Sensing Properties of rGO/Sn1–xZnxO₂ Nanocomposites
Abstract: rGO/Sn₁–ₓZnₓO₂ nanocomposites with x = 0.00–0.75 were synthesized by sol–gel auto-combustion followed by wet impregnation with reduced graphene oxide. The adopted synthesis route enabled homogeneous Zn incorporation into the SnO₂ matrix and uniform distribution of rGO, leading to improved structural integrity and interfacial contact between the two components. XRD confirmed a dominant tetragonal cassiterite SnO₂ structure, while FTIR, FESEM, EDS, UV–visible, and BET analyses verified oxide–rGO coupling, Zn-dependent structural modification, …
