Mullite is certainly one of the most important oxide materials for both conventional and
advanced ceramics. Mullite belongs to the compositional series of orthorhombic …

Porous geopolymer precursors were firstly prepared by the direct foaming method using
bauxite, fly ash (FA), and metakaolin (MK) as raw materials, and porous mullite ceramics …

This book is intended to be a concise and comprehensive coverage of the key ceramic and
glass materials used in modern technology. A group of international experts have …

Mullite is the only stable intermediate phase in the alumina-silica system at atmospheric
pressure. Although this solid solution phase is commonly found in human-made ceramics …

It is an effective method to predict thermal conductivity of porous materials by using fractal
models. In this work, mullite fibers/whiskers hierarchical porous materials (MFWs) were …

Porous corundum-mullite ceramics were made from Al (OH) 3 and kaolinite gangue by the in
situ decomposition pore-forming technique. The porosity of the sample increases with …

Mullite fibers/whiskers hierarchical structure materials (MFWs) were prepared via the three-
stage method, ie seeds breeding, precursors introducing and whiskers growth. The …

Geopolymer-mullite composite was prepared using fly ash and mullite powders with sodium
silicate and sodium hydroxide as alkaline activators. Mullite was used as a replacement to …

Although multi-phase ceramic materials were always used, nowadays composite materials
have an important industrial and technological role, because they enlarge the design …

Refractory materials based on zircon (ZrSiO4) are applied in high temperature applications
(1400–1500° C). They are demonstrated to have an excellent chemical attack resistance …
