162 CMC WITH MULTIPLE MATRIX PHASES SEPARATED BY DIFFUSION BARRIER US11489855 2006-07-20 US20100119807A1 2010-05-13 Jay E. Lane; Jay A. Morrison; Steven C. Butner; Andrew Szweda
A ceramic matrix composite (CMC) material (10) with increased interlaminar strength is obtained without a corresponding debit in other mechanical properties. This is achieved by infusing a diffusion barrier layer (20) into an existing porous matrix CMC to coat the exposed first matrix phase (19) and fibers (12), and then densifying the matrix with repeated infiltration cycles of a second matrix phase (22). The diffusion barrier prevents undesirable sintering between the matrix phases and between the second matrix phase and the fibers during subsequent final firing and use of the resulting component (30) in a high temperature environment.

166 Honeycomb structural body US10513798 2003-10-07 US07387657B2 2008-06-17 Masafumi Kunieda; Atsushi Kudo
A honeycomb structural body is constituted with a ceramic block comprising a plurality of through-holes arranged in a longitudinal direction and separated from each other through partition walls, either end portions of which through-holes being sealed. The ceramic block constituting the honeycomb structural body is made of a composite material consisting of ceramic particles and crystalline silicon and having an excellent thermal conductivity, so that the honeycomb structural body is excellent in the thermal diffusibility but also excellent in the resistance to thermal shock because the storing of thermal stress is less and no crack is caused even if a temperature distribution is caused at a relatively low temperature or cool-heat cycle is repeated over a long period of time.

169 Structures for dense, crack free thin films US11567056 2006-12-05 US20070134532A1 2007-06-14 Craig Jacobson; Steven Visco; Lutgard De Jonghe
The process described herein provides a simple and cost effective method for making crack free, high density thin ceramic film. The steps involve depositing a layer of a ceramic material on a porous or dense substrate. The deposited layer is compacted and then the resultant laminate is sintered to achieve a higher density than would have been possible without the pre-firing compaction step.

175 Rigid insulation and method of producing same US10222622 2002-08-16 US06716782B2 2004-04-06 Vann Heng; Karrie Ann Hinkle; Mary Ann Santos
A porous ceramic fiber insulating material and method of making a material having a combination of silica (SiO2) and alumina (Al2O3) fibers, and boron-containing powders is the topic of the new invention. The insulative material is composed of about 60 wt % to about 80 wt % silica fibers, about 20 wt % to about 40 wt % alumina fibers, and about 0.1 wt % to about 1.0 wt % boron-containing powders. A specific boron-containing powder used for this invention is boron carbide powder which provide boron-containing by-products, which aid in fusion and sintering of the silica and alumina fibers. The material is produced by forming an aqueous slurry, blending and chopping the fibers via a shear mixer, orienting the fibers in the in-plane direction, draining water from the fibers, pressing the fibers into a billet, heating the fibers to remove residual water, and firing the billet to fuse the fibers of the material. After sintering, bulk density of the new insulation material ranges from 6 to 20 lb/ft3.
176 Shaped body and production method thereof US10258929 2003-02-20 US20030167797A1 2003-09-11 Hermann Schmid; Holger Gnulldeke
The invention relates to a shaped body and a method for producing such shaped bodies which have substantially more favourable physical and chemical properties and which can be used advantageously thereby in the most varied of application fields, particularly in the construction industry. The shaped bodies should be produced at low cost and higher strengths should be achieved than conventional materials, with as low bulk densities as possible. According to the invention, this object is achieved in that the shaped body is formed exclusively from lightweight aggregates which are sintered together. The lightweight aggregates are selected thereby from expanded glass granulate, expanded clay granulate, or thermally pre-expanded perlite or also from mixtures thereof. They are produced from the lightweight aggregate in granulate form, having a residual expanding agent content of at least 0.1% by mass. The lightweight aggregate is heated in a mould, temperatures above the softening temperature of the granulate being achieved. The result is then a further expansion in volume and the sintering of the granulate surfaces and the shaped body can then be removed from the mould.
177 Aggregate using recycled plastics US09984504 2001-10-30 US06488766B2 2002-12-03 Earl T. Balkum
The present invention comprises an aggregate for use in cementitious building materials which-successfully incorporates plastic such as recycled plastic scrap of diverse types and a abrasive, inorganic grit particles. The plastic scrap is impregnated with a grit, such as sand, glass or other inorganic material. The plastic will then bond satisfactorily with a ark cementitious binder. Impregnation is accomplished by heating the plastic in particulate form, the grit or both, then mixing the plastic and grit. The aggregate can be reinforced by the addition of metallic or artificial fibers. Optionally, the aggregate can be formed with gas filled voids by adding sodium bicarbonate or borax during the heating process or by using plastics which “off-gas” during heating. In a further option, adhesive can be added to the cementitious mix, thereby fusing plastic particles together such that a skeleton providing reinforcement or support is formed in the cured aggregate.
178 Rigid porous carbon structures, methods of making, methods of using and products containing same US09500740 2000-02-09 US06432866B1 2002-08-13 Howard Tennent; David Moy; Chun-Ming Niu
This invention relates to rigid porous carbon structures and to methods of making same. The rigid porous structures have a high surface area which are substantially free of micropores. Methods for improving the rigidity of the carbon structures include causing the nanofibers to form bonds or become glued with other nanofibers at the fiber intersections. The bonding can be induced by chemical modification of the surface of the nanofibers to promote bonding, by adding “gluing” agents and/or by pyrolyzing the nanofibeirs to cause fusion or bonding at the interconnect points.
179 Cellular structures and processes for making such structures US09496734 2000-02-02 US06254998B1 2001-07-03 Lev J. Tuchinsky
A method for making foam structures suitable for use as mechanical energy absorbers, structural members, filters, catalyst carriers or the like. A composite rod comprising an outer shell and an inner core is formed of respective mixtures of powders. The mixture for the outer shell comprises a sinterable powdered structural material such as ceramics, metals, intermetallics, and a powdered binder such as paraffin, wax or polymer. The inner core comprises a powdered channel-forming filler material such as melamine or polymers, or soluble inorganic compounds or a metal that can differentially be removed from the structural material of the shell. The composite rod may be formed by extrusion. The composite rod is sectioned into a plurality of composite rod segments of predetermined length and a plurality of these segments is assembled in randomly oriented relationship to one another. The assemblage of rod segments is then consolidated, and the binder and filler are then removed, as by heating. The remaining structure of the outer shells, comprised of ceramic or metal, as the case may be, is then sintered to produce the foam structure. In certain embodiments, the material of the inner core may be removed by heating it in the course of heating the structure to perform the sintering step. In other embodiments, the binder and/or filler material may be removed by means of a suitable solvent.
