Developing MgO-bonded castables is still an important subject for refractory producers and end-users based on the expansive character of the in-situ Mg(OH)2 formation. Considering that magnesia undergoes hydration when exposed to water and…
The drying step of dense refractory castables containing hydraulic binders is a critical process, which usually requires using slow heating rates due to the high explosion trend of such materials during their first thermal treatment. Thus,…
A growing interest in designing high-alumina MgO-bonded refractory castables has been identified in recent years due to the magnesia ability to react: (i) with water at the initial processing stages of these materials (inducing the…
Drying is the most critical process of the first heating cycle of monolithic dense refractories, as the reduced permeability of the resulting microstructure may lead to explosive spalling and mechanical damage associated with dewatering.…
Despite the continuous evolution on the performance of refractory ceramic products, monolithic materials still require special attention during their processing steps as various phase transformations may take place during the curing, drying…
Reactive magnesium oxide (MgO)-based cement (RMC) can play a key role in carbon capture processes. However, knowledge on the driving forces that control the degree of carbonation and hydration and rate of reactions in this system remains…
The wear resistance of magnesium and its alloys is very poor due to their inherent low hardness and poor tribological properties. Improving the wear resistance of magnesium and its alloys plays a significant role in expanding their…
Structural materials are broadly used in applications such as nuclear vessels, high-temperature processes, and civil construction. Usually, during their placing and lifespan, they may present free or chemically bonded liquid phases in their…
Calcium aluminate cement (CAC), calcium carbonate (CaCO$_3$), calcium hydroxide [Ca(OH)$_2$] and calcium oxide (CaO) were investigated in alumina-based macroporous compositions for $\textit{in situ}$ formation of hibonite (also known as…
Spray flame synthesis offers a promising method for scalable production of homogeneously mixed Y2O3-MgO nanopowders as next-generation infrared-transparent window material, which has attracted significant attention owing to its excellent…
