In 1794, Gadolin had separated from the gadolinite of Ytterby an earth which he called the earth of Ytter, and which was afterward known under the forms of erbia, terbia, and yttria proper.

Energy infrastructure of the future could look very different to the infrastructure we rely on today. Research by a team of ...

Rapid advancements in the electronics industry have provided significant convenience for civilian use, but have also ...

Now superlattices made of yttria-stabilized zirconia and strontium titanate show promise for room-temperature devices. Now J. Santamaria and colleagues 1 have fabricated epitaxial heterostructures ...

yttria, zircon, and zirconia. Cement bond and set types include calcium aluminate, calcium silicate, phosphate, silicate, and sulfur or sulfate. Polycrystalline ceramics or aggregate-based ...

Here the authors directly observe space-charge-induced electric fields at yttria-stabilized zirconia grain boundaries, revealing how space charge layers corelate with grain boundary orientations ...

Attributed to excellent attributes, the 8 wt% yttria-stabilized zirconia (8YSZ) is widely used in the field of thermal barrier coatings, solid oxide fuel cell, catalysis, gas sensors, medicine and ...

CeramaZirc ultra-tough is DOUBLE the toughness of yttria-stabilized zirconia, and harder as well-meaning that it outperforms the standard material across the board of mechanical properties.

Sapphire is a high-purity and high-density, single-crystalline form of aluminum oxide that may contain chromia, titania, yttria, or other dopants. Sapphire is usually transparent or translucent.

Then, applying a layer of the low infrared emissivity coating onto the MAM. However, low infrared emissivity coatings will degrade the microwave absorption performance of the MAM due to the reflection ...
