Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Ceramic materials have a complex internal structure and are used in important equipment, such as drilling devices, cutting devices, jet engines, and many others. Examples of such materials include multiphase polycrystals, for example, WC/Co, SiC/Al, and Al2O3/ZrO2. The combination of phases with different properties yields a complex microstructure.

Dynamic phenomena are highly diverse. During high-velocity impact, complex phenomena such as cracks, fragmentation, and phase transformation appear in ceramic–metal composites. The behavior of CMM and the composites of all brittle phases is qualitatively different. Special attention is given to the influence of voids within polycrystalline materials on their performance.

In recent decades, advancements in numerical methods, including theory development alongside the application of high-performance computing, have allowed for the analysis of impact phenomena.

Numerical analysis allows insights into rapid processes that are practically impossible to follow during experiments.

  • Impact of samples, fragmentation;
  • Variable dynamic loads;
  • Imperfections, voids, inclusions in grains, imperfections in grain boundaries;
  • Imperfections in interfaces;
  • Numerical methods (finite element method, meshless methods);
  • Nonlocal methods;
  • Thermal effects, phase transformation.

We warmly invite submissions of full papers, communications, or a review.

Iron red, a traditional Jingdezhen overglaze color, is primarily colored with iron oxide (Fe2O3). In traditional processes, the main ingredient for the iron red overglaze color, raw iron red, is produced by calcining iron vitriol (FeSO4·7H2O). Analysis of ancient iron red porcelain samples indicates that the coloration is unstable, ranging from bright red to dark red and occasionally to black. Addressing this, the present study, from a ceramic technology standpoint, conducts a series of calcination experiments on industrial iron vitriol at varying temperatures. Utilizing methodologies such as differential scanning calorimetry-thermogravimetry (DSC-TG), Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy with X-ray energy dispersive spectrometry (SEM-EDS), and optical microscopy (OM), this research scientifically explores the impact of iron vitriol’s calcination temperature on the coloration of traditional Jingdezhen iron red overglaze color. The findings indicate that from room temperature to 550 °C, the dehydration of iron vitriol resulted in the formation of Fe2(SO4)3 and a minimal amount of α-Fe2O3, rendering the iron red overglaze color a yellowish-red shade. At 650 °C, the coexistence of Fe2(SO4)3 and α-Fe2O3 imparted a brick-red color to the iron red. As the temperature was elevated to 700 °C, the desulfurization of Fe2(SO4)3 produced α-Fe2O3, transitioning the iron red to an orange red. With further temperature increase to 750 °C, the particle size of α-Fe2O3 grew and the crystal reflectivity decreased, resulting in a purplish-red hue. Throughout this stage, the powder remained in a single α-Fe2O3 phase. Upon further heating to 800 °C, the crystallinity of α-Fe2O3 enhanced, giving the iron red overglaze color a dark red or even black appearance. Full article

The aim of this paper is to investigate the mechanism of an electric current-assisted superplastic deformation on 3Y-TZP in an oxygen-lean atmosphere. The experiments were performed with different electric currents in the range of 0~5 A. The results show that the flow stress of 3Y-TZP during the deformation was significantly decreased by the combination of Joule heating and the applied current effect. The microstructures of the deformed specimens were all equiaxed grains without an obvious preferential grain growth. The stress exponent n = 2.05~2.61 suggested that the dominant deformation of 3Y-YZP with/without the electric current was grain boundary sliding at 1400 °C. The activation energy of the deformation which decreased from 465 kJ mol−1 to 315 kJ mol−1 by the electric current indicated that the lattice diffusion of Zr cation during the deformation was enhanced. And the deformation rate of 3Y-TZP with the electric current may be controlled by the grain boundary diffusion of Zr cation. Full article
