Wave-transmitting materials are a kind of multi-functional materials that protect the normal operation of communication and guidance systems of spacecraft in harsh environments. In this paper, we fabricate a broadband microwave transparent Si 3 N 4 -SiO 2 composite ceramic with excellent performance through digital light processing (DLP) 3D printing technology. The influences of sintering temperature on the weight increase rate, density, dimensional shrinkage, phase composition, microstructure, bending strength and dielectric properties of Si 3 N 4 -SiO 2 ceramic were all systematically studied. The strength of Si 3 N 4 -SiO 2 ceramic sintered at 1350 ℃ was 77 ± 5 MPa. The relative permittivity of the ceramic is within the range of less than 4, and the loss tangent can be below 0.003. The 3D printed Si 3 N 4 -SiO 2 ceramic material exhibited excellent wave-transparent performance.

SiO 2 -based ceramic cores are widely used in the preparation of gas turbine engine hollow blades due to their excellent chemical stability and easy removal after casting. In this paper, ZrSiO 4 reinforced SiO 2 -based ceramics were fabricated using digital light processing (DLP) technology. The results showed that the addition of ZrSiO 4 reduced the cure depth due to its high UV light absorptivity and refractive index . When the content of ZrSiO 4 increased to 15 wt%, the cristobalite content reached the maximum, and radial shrinkage reached the minimum of 1.4%. ZrSiO 4 grains could hinder the propagation of cracks, enhancing the room-temperature flexural strength . At 1550 °C, fracturing across SiO 2 grains in SiO 2 -based ceramics led to the great improvement of high-temperature flexural strength. When the content of ZrSiO 4 reached 15 wt%, the flexural strength at room temperature and high temperature was 11.5 MPa and 36.7 MPa, respectively. Therefore, the SiO 2 -based ceramics prepared using DLP technology have good room temperature and high temperature properties, and are expected to be used for hollow blade casting.

Flash sintering has been used to consolidate a wide range of ceramics and ceramic composites. However, flash sintering of ceramic nanocomposite with a substantial amorphous phase is rarely studied. Meanwhile, the effects of yttrium addition on the flash sintering behaviors and microstructures of ZrO 2 -based ceramic nanocomposite remain unknown. Herein, ZrO 2 -SiO 2 crystalline-amorphous ceramic nanocomposites (CACNs) with different contents of amorphous phase and two types of yttrium dopants were sintered by flash sintering. Results showed that the content of amorphous phase (SiO 2 ) had significant effects on the flash sintering behavior. The CACN with 65 mol% SiO 2 was nonflash sinterable due to the high electric resistivity of SiO 2 , whereas, the CACN with 45 mol% SiO 2 can be flash sintered to high densification within 35 seconds. The flash-sintered CACNs consisted of ZrO 2 nanocrystallites distributed in an amorphous SiO 2 matrix. Flash sintering enhanced the tetragonal-to-monoclinic phase transformation of ZrO 2 . In addition, influences of yttrium dopant on CACNs were also investigated. Yttrium dopants can rapidly dissolve in ZrO 2 lattices and show a tetragonal phase stabilization effect during flash sintering. Firework-like ZrO 2 microcrystallites formed by dendritic growth were observed close to the cathode region, which was attributed to athermal electric field effects and the formation and aggregation of oxygen vacancies at the cathode region. The results would provide guidance for fabricating CACNs via flash sintering.

The corrosion caused by air sediments comprising CaO-MgO-Al 2 O 3 -SiO 2 (CMAS) poses a notable challenge to thermal/environmental barrier coatings as engine service temperatures continue to rise. In this study, three types of Y 2 O 3 -SiO 2 binary compound ceramic bulks—Y 2 SiO 5 , Y 2 SiO 5 -Y 2 Si 2 O 7 and Y 2 Si 2 O 7 —with molar ratios of Y 2 O 3 :SiO 2 of 1:1, 1:1.5, and 1:2, respectively, were prepared and subjected to CMAS corrosion at 1250 °C and 1350 °C for durations ranging from 1 to 10 h. The corrosion products and cross-sectional morphologies of the samples were characterized using X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope. The results demonstrate that the material composition determines its CMAS corrosion behavior. Y 2 SiO 5 , with higher Y 2 O 3 content, consumes more CaO to form Ca 2 Y 8 (SiO 4 ) 6 O 2 , thereby reducing the CaO content and increasing the viscosity of the residual CMAS melt. This process inhibits further CMAS penetration. The findings highlight a novel strategy to improve CMAS corrosion resistance by modifying the CMAS composition and reducing its penetration capability.

Li-added CaO-B 2 O 3 -SiO 2 (CBS) dielectric microwave substrates for low temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) applications were prepared using a solid-state reaction, and the effect of the LiF additive on the sintering behavior, dielectric performance and mechanical properties of the product was investigated. In this presently reported work, we found that the LiF additive could effectually reduce the sintering temperature of the CBS ceramics and also substantially improved the densification, dielectric and mechanical properties of it. The experimental results showed that an addition of 3 wt% LiF to the sample sintered at 790 °C resulted in a main crystalline phase of β-CaSiO3 which had excellent proprieties. These included an excellent degree of densification, ε r of 6.43, tan δ of 5.9 × 10 −4 and a volume resistivity of 8.20 × 10 11 Ω cm at 1 MHz, and flexural strength of 241 MPa.

Si 3 N 4 -SiO 2 ceramics are considered as the preferred high-performance wave-transmitting material in the aerospace field. However, traditional fabrication methods for Si 3 N 4 -SiO 2 ceramics have the disadvantages of high cost and complicated fabrication process. In this paper, Si 3 N 4 -SiO 2 ceramics with excellent mechanical and dielectric properties were fabricated by digital light processing-based 3D printing combined with oxidation sintering. Firstly, the curing thickness and viscosity of slurries with different solid loadings for vat photopolymerization-based 3D printing were studied. Then, the effects of the sintering temperature on the linear shrinkage, phase composition, microstructure, flexural strength , and dielectric properties of Si 3 N 4 -SiO 2 ceramics, and the influences of solid loading on them were explored. The curing thickness and viscosity of the slurry with a solid loading of 55 vol% were 30 μm and ∼1.5 Pa‧s, respectively. The open porosity and the flexural strength of Si 3 N 4 -SiO 2 ceramic with a solid loading of 55 vol% were 4.3 ± 0.61% and 76 ± 5.6 MPa, respectively. In the electromagnetic wave band of 8–18 GHz, the dielectric constant of Si 3 N 4 -SiO 2 ceramics was within the range of less than 4, and the dielectric loss remained below 0.09. The method of digital light processing-based 3D printing combined with oxidation sintering can be further extended in the preparation of Si 3 N 4 -based structure-function integrated ceramics.

Here electrospinning and freeze-drying techniques are combined to fabricate an anisotropic SiC@SiO 2 ceramic fiber aerogels (A-SiC@SiO 2 -FAs). The anisotropic structure of the A-SiC@SiO 2 -FAs features aligned layers stacking layer-by-layer with the same direction and highly oriented 1D fibers inside each layer. The A-SiC@SiO 2 -FAs exhibit anisotropic thermal properties with an extremely low thermal conductivity of 0.018 W m −1 K −1 in the transverse direction (perpendicular to the SiC@SiO 2 nanofibers) and ≈5 times higher thermal conductivity of 0.0914 W m −1 K −1 in the axial direction due to the highly oriented SiC@SiO 2 nanofibers. The anisotropy factor of the A-SiC@SiO 2 -FAs is as high as 5.08, which exceeds most of the currently reported thermal insulation materials with anisotropic structural design, such as anisotropic wood aerogels, biaxially anisotropic PI/BC aerogels and anisotropic MXene foam, etc. The A-SiC@SiO 2 -FAs also have excellent thermal stability, maintaining structural integrity in oxidative environments at temperatures up to 1300 ° C. Moreover, these structurally distinct A-SiC@SiO 2 -FAs result in superior elastic deformation with a radial recoverable strain exceeding 60% and an axial specific modulus of 5.72 kN m kg −1 . These findings emphasize the potential of SiC nanofiber aerogels in extreme thermal environments and provide valuable insights for designing anisotropic insulation materials.

Mechanical-electromagnetic integrated design has great potential in the development of electromagnetic shielding equipment for military use. In this study, Al 2 O 3 /SiO 2 ceramics with triply periodic minimal surfaces (TPMSs) were fabricated using digital light processing (DLP) technology. The preparation of SiO 2 and Al 2 O 3 powders is vital for DLP because minimal aggregates or sedimentation in the ceramic paste is required. Debinding and sintering programs were developed to prevent defects in the designed microstructure. The interfacial characterization demonstrated that the surfaces of the sintered ceramics were compact and smooth. The compression strength of the TPMS ceramic with a volume fraction of 50% was 24 MPa, which is relatively good among additively manufactured cellular ceramics. The TPMS structures also exhibited significant electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding effectiveness in the X-band (2 to 18 GHz), and the shielding performance was adequate to meet the demands of electromagnetic shielding materials . Additive manufacturing of Al 2 O 3 /SiO 2 ceramic with TPMS architectures was successfully achieved by considering the mechanical-electromagnetic integration.

MgO–Al 2 O 3 –SiO 2 composite ceramics were prepared by spark plasma sintering (SPS). In addition, phase composition, microstructure, mechanical properties , and thermal shock properties have been systematically characterized. Introduction of Al 2 O 3 and SiO 2 significantly increased mechanical properties and thermal shock resistance of these composite ceramics. MgO–Al 2 O 3 –SiO 2 composite ceramics prepared by spark plasma sintering (SPS) exhibited fine grain size. Reduced grain size may result in extraordinary properties. Experimental results showed that MgO–Al 2 O 3 –SiO 2 composite ceramics had the highest flexural strength and hardness among all studied ceramics of 269.6 ± 9.22 MPa and 12.51 ± 0.29 GPa, respectively. Moreover, MgO–Al 2 O 3 –SiO 2 composites can reach 16 thermal cycle times. This shows that it is feasible to prepare high-performance MgO composite ceramics by SPS. Furthermore, introduction of Al 2 O 3 and SiO 2 is effective method to improve mechanical properties and thermal shock resistance of MgO composite ceramics.

In this study, laser-assisted micro-arc oxidation (LMAO) processing was carried out on Ti6Al4V alloy under laser powers of 30, 45, and 60 W, and the influence of the laser power on the microstructure and wear resistance of the coating was further investigated. The breakdown voltage and termination voltages of LMAO processing decrease gradually as the laser power increases. At the same time, micro-discharges increase in quantity. Within the suitable laser power range (30–45 W), the obtained coating continuously enhances uniformity, thickness, and density with rising power, contributing to higher hardness and adhesion strength . However, raising laser power to 60 W will damage the obtained coating due to the violent micro-discharges, which generate interconnected larger pores in the local area. Laser power also affects the coating's reaction process and phase transition. More electrolyte ions dope into the coating as a consequence of increasing laser power. The Si concentration of the LMAO-45 coating is the highest, whereas that of the LMAO-60 coating comparatively reduces due to localized coating detachment. Moreover, enhancing laser power is more conducive to forming SiO 2 and rutile-TiO 2 phases. Compared with the traditional MAO or other LMAO coatings, the LMAO-45 coating significantly improves wear protection, evidenced by the lowest COF value , the minimum wear rate, and the least peeling during the wear test . Low porosity, surface roughness , high thickness, and increased incorporation of the SiO 2 phase are responsible for the same. However, under 60 W of laser irradiation , the wear resistance of the resultant LMAO coating decreased due to the formation of local damaged areas.

The pore structure and surface properties of ceramic membranes lead to a low separation flux, which limits their further application. Changing the microstructure of membranes by introducing new technologies is a very effective method. In this study, high flux ceramic substrate membranes were prepared by metal mesh-assisted phase inversion method, and then new PDA@SiO 2 ceramic membranes were prepared by introducing PDA@SiO 2 core-shell structure. During the phase inversion, the metal mesh pores restrict the path of the water nuclei to extract the polymer, and the microchannels grow along the extraction path, creating a uniform pore size above the metal mesh and removing the dense layer below, allowing the ceramic substrate membranes to exhibit high fluxes. PDA@SiO 2 core-shell structures were stably grown on the surface of ceramic membranes by vacuum self-assembly. Due to the introduction of hydrophilic groups and micro-nano scale roughness, the PDA@SiO 2 ceramic membranes exhibit super-hydrophilic/underwater super-oleophobic performance, stabilizing the separation of oil-in-water emulsions with excellent permeation fluxes (1058 L·m⁻²·h⁻¹·0.2 bar⁻¹) and oil removal rate (99 %). PDA@SiO 2 ceramic membranes exhibit excellent stability, fouling resistance, and durability in harsh environments, contamination tests, and cycling tests. Excellent oil-water separation, stability, and durability make PDA@SiO 2 ceramic membranes a promising solution for the treatment of oil-in-water emulsions.

In this study, we adopted the novel strategies of the soot template method to construct SiO 2 ceramic micro-nano structure surface and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) modification to reduce the surface energy. We fabricated a superhydrophobic/superoleophilic NS-PDMS oil–water separation screen by depositing coarse nano-SiO 2 ceramic on the surface of 100-mesh stainless-steel screen used as a substrate under the soot template method, which reduced the surface energy with PDMS. The fabricated NS-PDMS screen exhibited excellent superhydrophobic and self-cleaning properties. In particular, the superhydrophobic properties were stably maintained under various harsh conditions. Overall, the screen manifested self-cleaning ability for various water-containing stains, for example, coffee, milk, beer, and soy sauce. The mechanically damaged screen surface still retained its high roughness, and re-modification with PDMS could recover the superhydrophobic surface and oil–water separation performance. This suggests the re-use potential of the damaged NS-PDMS screen, which is vital for cost reduction and resource recycling. We believe that our study makes a significant contribution to the literature, because the fabricated NS-PDMS screen is superhydrophobic, superoleophilic, resistant toward several water-based solutions, chemically and mechanically stable under certain conditions, and can be reused with modification and repair after damage. Therefore, this screen can be broadly used as an oil–water separator.
