Summary: Highly densified SiC ceramics were fabricated by synthesizing single-phase Al4SiC4 powder with low neutron absorption cross section and mixing it with SiC powder, followed by hot pressing. The densification of the ceramics was greatly enhanced by the decomposition of Al4SiC4 and the formation of aluminosilicate liquid phase during sintering. The resulting SiC ceramics exhibited fine equiaxed grains and excellent mechanical properties.

Summary: Continuous silicon carbide fiber reinforced silicon carbide matrix composites (SiC/SiC) are promising candidate materials for nuclear applications. SiC ceramics and SiC/SiC composite were prepared using a polymer deriving method and irradiated with a 1.8 MeV electron beam. The microstructural evolution and radioluminescence performance were investigated, and the results showed evident amorphization and low radioluminescence intensity in both SiC ceramics and SiC/SiC composite due to the self-absorption of free carbon in the polymer derived SiC ceramics.

Summary: In this study, a new slurry-based approach for laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) of ceramics was investigated, which showed significant advantages compared to indirect selective laser sintering (SLS) of ceramic powders. The addition of magnesia had a substantial influence on the microstructure of alumina ceramic, and high laser power with low magnesia load improved the surface quality of the printed parts. Slurry ceramic parts without binders were successfully produced through LPBF. Additionally, the effects of SiC and magnesia loads on the microstructure and surface morphology of alumina were compared and analyzed.

Summary: In this study, the effects of different parameters on the material removal rate, surface quality, and surface oxidation during the laser processing of SiC ceramics were investigated. Results show that surface oxidation can be reduced by adjusting laser scanning speed and pitch, with laser fluence being the main factor affecting material removal rate and surface quality. Optimal material removal rate is achieved with a laser fluence of 0.4 J/cm2 and a pulse width of 470 fs.

Summary: In this study, SiC nanocoatings were successfully prepared on graphite substrates using a laser treatment process, exhibiting excellent high-temperature oxidation resistance. The dense and crack-free surface morphology of the SiC nanocoating, along with the self-healing ability due to the formation of SiO2, contributes to enhanced protection of the underlying graphite substrate. The laser-prepared SiC nanocoating serves as an efficient and effective method for manufacturing SiC protective coatings with improved high-temperature oxidation resistance.

Summary: In this paper, a new kinetic model considering both oxidation and volatilization kinetics is established and successfully applied to analyze the oxidation process of SiC-B4C-xAl(2)O(3) ceramics and other systems. The model takes into account the effects of diffusion area and volume changes during the oxidation process, and the physical meaning of each parameter is well-defined. The practicality of the model is verified by experimental data, showing its applicability to systems with both oxidation and volatilization, as well as systems where only oxidation is involved.

Summary: Reaction-bonded silicon carbide composites exhibit a complex ablation mechanism under femtosecond laser irradiation. The ablation threshold decreases with increasing pulse number and stabilizes. Photochemical ablation dominates at low fluence and low pulse number, while photothermal ablation dominates at higher fluence and pulse number. A preliminary model of the ablation mechanism was established based on surface morphology, microstructure, and physical phase analysis.

Summary: Ion irradiation on Zirconium Carbide (ZrCx) induces dislocation loops in the microstructure and an increase in carbon vacancies, while subsequent electron irradiation leads to the formation of nanosized tetragonal ZrO2 precipitates. The initial microstructure of ZrCx substrate plays a key role in the nucleation and growth of oxide islands.

Summary: This study systematically investigated the thermal response, oxidation, and ablation behavior of various thermal protection materials under strong heat flux, high enthalpy, and low-pressure environments. The results showed that factors such as thermal conductivity, volumetric heat capacity, catalytic efficiency, emissivity, and oxidation characteristics played important roles in the thermal response. The study also compared and analyzed the oxidation and ablation behaviors of these materials under extreme environments, and evaluated the effect of pre-treatment on the performance and reusability of thermal protection materials.

Summary: The study shows that titanium dioxide nanoparticles possess various properties, such as adsorption, photocatalysis, bactericidal, virucidal, and fungicidal effects, making them suitable for antibacterial coatings and air and water disinfection. In addition to assessing the physicochemical characteristics of titanium dioxide, its toxicological effects were also evaluated to prevent potential harm to humans and the environment. To enhance the properties of nano-TiO2, nanopowders and composites with silver were synthesized, resulting in increased antibacterial properties. The nanocomposite was classified as moderately dangerous based on acute intraperitoneal toxicity parameters.
