    Sintering of specific material systems
    4. Poster presentation

    Advanced ceramics possess admirable properties, such as high operating temperatures and low thermal conductivity, that make them well-suited for extreme environments, including those in the aerospace and nuclear industries. One of the most significant drawbacks of ceramics is the challenge of processing, particularly in the production of ultra-high-temperature ceramics (UHTCs), which must be...

    JA demonstration (DEMO) fusion power reactors have adopted an advanced blanket design loaded with advanced neutron multiplier, beryllium intermetallic compounds (beryllides, in specific, Be12Ti) due to their low swelling, high thermal conductivity, and high stability at high temperatures. Advanced neutron multipliers are being developed by Japan and the EU as part of their Broader Approach...

    3. Oral presentation

    Ni-based superalloys are widely used in the hot sections of gas turbines due to their high melting points and mechanical strength. To protect these components from extreme temperatures, refractory ceramic thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) are applied. Recently, efforts to replace liquefied natural gas (LNG) with hydrogen fuel have been pursued to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. However,...

    3. Oral presentation

    High-entropy ceramics with a garnet structure have recently emerged as a promising class of materials due to their exceptional thermal stability, chemical robustness, and the tunability of their properties through multication substitution. These materials offer broad potential for advanced functional ceramics with tailored mechanical, optical, and electronic properties. In this work, a...

    3. Oral presentation

    The energy transition towards sustainable mobility is essential to reducing CO₂ emissions and combating climate change. The global expansion of electromobility, the electrification of industry, and the use of wind energy will significantly increase the demand for high-performance NdFeB magnets. In addition to recent efforts to expand magnet production outside of China, recycling end-of-life...

    4. Poster presentation

    Copper (Cu) powders for low-temperature sintering are capable of bonding at temperatures significantly below their melting point. Consequently, they are expected to be applied in die-attach materials for power modules designed for high-temperature operation.

    To achieve low-temperature sintering, it is effective to refine the particle size. In the case of Cu, an anti-oxidation coating which...

    High entropy carbides (HEC) represent a promising class within the emerging field of high entropy ceramics. HEC are attractive due to their high hardness and excellent wear and oxidation resistance. However, achieving high densification while maintaining a homogeneous microstructure remains a significant processing challenge.
    This study investigates the preparation of a HEC with (VNbTaMoW)C...

    The 2-powder method (2PM) for manufacturing sintered NdFeB magnets, patented by TU Darmstadt and further developed by Fraunhofer IWKS, offers the possibility of significantly reducing the criticality of rare earth-based magnets. Heavy rare earth elements (HREs) such as Dy or Tb are used in green technologies like traction motors of electric vehicles to ensure sufficient temperature resistance...

    4. Poster presentation

    High-entropy ceramics are promising materials for advanced optical applications, particularly for their enhanced thermal stability and tunable spectral properties. However, achieving full density and eventually optical transparency remains challenging in multicomponent systems, as sluggish diffusion kinetics can hinder pore elimination. Furthermore, chemical complexity increases the risk of...

    3. Oral presentation

    Boron carbide is an advanced ceramic material of great interest for structural and functional applications due to its low density, high hardness, and chemical stability. Nevertheless, its covalent character represents an issue for sintering and densification which are also strongly affected by impurities and surface oxides presence.
    In this context, the use of B₄C powders obtained from...

    Transparent Gd2O3–MgO composite ceramics are promising materials for mid-wave infrared (MWIR) window applications due to their good optical transparency and thermal stability. However, the sintering behaviour and microstructure evolution of the two-phase system are strongly influenced by the phase transition of Gd2O3 and the phase compatibility between Gd2O3 and MgO, which significantly affect...

    Non-oxide ceramics such as ZnS and ZnSe are highly transparent across a broad spectral range of 0.5–18.0μm, positioning them as promising candidates for various scientific and technological applications. While chemical vapor deposition (CVD) remains an effective method for producing transparent ZnS and ZnSe ceramics, its high cost and time-intensive nature present notable drawbacks....
