Zirconia microspheres with high sphericity and hardness were successfully massively produced through a cost-effective spray granulation method by using an optimized slurry with high solid content and low viscosity which was formulated with a mixed dispersant . The influence of slurry solid content, binder addition as well as drying temperature on the shape and size of the sintered microspheres were studied. Furthermore, the formation mechanism of different granulated particles was analyzed based on the illustrated migration processes in the ZrO 2 droplets with different contents of water and additives. Under the optimized conditions, the sintered ZrO 2 spheres with tetragonal phase exhibit high sphericity with highest nano-hardness of 9.5 GPa, indicating it is possible to be used in the engineering fields. Such spray granulation method could directly serve for the industrial production of zirconia and other ceramic materials since it is a stable process with high yield, good granulating quality and strong controllability.

Solid content of suspension for spray drying was systematically investigated to obtain spherical and dense Nd: granulated particles. The rheological behavior, morphology, size and distribution, apparent and tap densities, and transmittance measurements were used as tools to guide the selection of solid content of suspension. The balanced solid content were 42.0 wt.%. The granulated particles exhibited close to mono-dispersed, spherical and uniform dense aggregates, and mean size was ∼35 μm. Under 60 MPa pressure, the granules were completely crushed without obvious inter-granules void. The homogeneous element distribution and fine microstructure provided high optical quality of Nd:YAG ceramics and the transmittance at 1064 nm reached up to 84.90%.

Powder preparation is the key step in producing laser cladding coatings with desired properties. In this paper, quaternary TiO 2 -B 4 C-C-Cu composite powder with high sphericity and good densification has been successfully prepared by a powder fabrication process combining spray granulation with densification sintering. The effects of slurry characteristics, spray granulation process parameters, and densification sintering temperature on particle morphology and performance were studied. The formation mechanism of quaternary spherical TiO 2 -B 4 C-C-Cu composite powder was revealed by analyzing the process of heat transfer and water transfer in the droplets, and the optimization direction of the powder preparation was indicated. The optimized process parameters for the quaternary spherical TiO 2 -B 4 C-C-Cu composite powder are: slurry solid content of 52 wt%, dispersant content of 1.25 wt%, binder content of 2 wt%, inlet temperature of 180 °C, the airflow rate of 310 L/h, slurry feed rate of 4.5 ml/min, and the two-stage temperatures of densification sintering are 500 ℃ and 900 ℃ for 1 h, in turn. Under the optimized process, the fluidity of the powder reaches 112 s/50 g, the apparent density reaches 1.2 g/ml, and more than 70% of the particles are between 15–53 µm. The powder has been verified by laser cladding to prepare in-situ synthesized TiB 2 -TiC-Cu composite coatings , which could have a better prospect for potential application.

In this work, a simple, safe, and low-cost two-step route for preparing spherical AlN powders was developed. Specifically, pure AlN spherical powder can be obtained by using water as the solvent, ammonium polyacrylate as the dispersant, carbon powder and alumina powder as the raw materials, spraying and granulating into a spherical precursor, and then sintering at high temperature under a nitrogen atmosphere. The results demonstrate that the average size and the associated distribution of the precursor can be adjusted by regulating the solid or dispersant content of the slurry, which is beneficial for governing the size of the AlN powder. The average particle size of the sintered spherical AlN powders is approximately 33.5 μm, presenting high sphericity (greater than 0.9) and excellent flowability. This approach developed for preparing spherical AlN powder is of great significance for promoting the widespread application of AlN powder in the field of high-performance fillers.

The (La0.5Eu0.25Y0.25)2Zr2O7 (LEYZ) ceramic powder for spraying was prepared and synthesised by combining spray granulation and solid phase reaction phase, and a double ceramic layer structure with (La0.5Eu0.25Y0.25)2Zr2O7 ceramic surface coating and YSZ intermediate coating was prepared by atmospheric plasma spraying. Experimental characterisation revealed that the moulding state of spray granulated powders was significantly influenced by the solid content. When the solid content is small, the viscosity of the slurry is insufficient, and the prepared powder has poor formability and small overall particle size. When the solid content is large, the slurry is too viscous, which easily leads to unfavourable conditions such as sticky walls. The best formability of the pelletised powder was obtained with a solid content of 55 wt-% and a binder content of 2.0 wt-%. Compared with La2Zr2O7 (LZ) ceramics, the fracture toughness of the rare-earth co-doped modified LEYZ ceramic coating was increased by 8.4% and the bond strength was increased by 49.9%, showing good toughness and crack resistance. Moreover, LEYZ coating has significantly better resistance to solid phase particle erosion than LZ coating, with 46.3% and 45.4% reduction in erosion rate at 45° and 90°, respectively.

The capture of CO 2 from flue gas after combustion using solid sorbents is one of the efficient options for reducing CO 2 emissions from fossil fuel-fired power plants. To satisfy the requirement of large quantities flue gas treatment, the CO 2 capture capacities of the solid sorbents must be focused on. In this study, K 2 CO 3 /Al 2 O 3 adsorbents were prepared via spray granulation, achieving an optimal CO 2 adsorption capacity of 1.89 mmol/g at a potassium carbonate loading of 30 wt%. To address the limitations of potassium-based adsorbents, we further enhanced the performance by incorporating polyethyleneimine (PEI), an amine-functionalized material known for its high CO 2 affinity, in the K30Al adsorbent. A series of potassium-amine composite adsorbents were synthesized with varying PEI loadings (1 wt%, 3 wt%, 5 wt%, and 7 wt%). Remarkably, a synergistic effect between K 2 CO 3 and PEI was observed, with the 5 wt% PEI loading yielding the highest CO 2 adsorption capacity of 2.19 mmol/g, representing a 16 % improvement over the unmodified adsorbent. This represents a novel K30Al-P5 composite adsorbent successfully fabricated through deposition of a small amount of PEI onto pre-synthesized K30Al substrate via the spray granulation method. Comprehensive characterization, including adsorption capacity, cyclic stability, and structural properties, revealed that the enhanced performance is attributed to the optimized interaction between K 2 CO 3 and PEI, which facilitates CO 2 chemisorption and diffusion. This study not only demonstrates a significant improvement in CO 2 capture efficiency but also provides a scalable and cost-effective strategy for designing high-performance adsorbents.
