Join us at the International Thermal Conductivity Conference (ITCC) and the International Thermal Expansion Symposium (ITES).
The thermal properties, as well as bulk density, and mass loss of alumina porcelain were determined as a function of firing temperature. It was found that after sintering at 1320 ÂșC, the thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity increased by ~700% and ~400%, respectively....
Using industrial grade mullite powder and a foaming and starch consolidation process, a series of porous mullite ceramics were prepared. These ceramics were analyzed by a thermal constants analyzer, and it was determined that the ceramics had low thermal conductivities and would make good thermal insulators. The porosity of the synthesized ceramics can be controlled by the sintering temperature and by adjusting solid loading. The ceramics were subjected to theoretical ...
