Translucent MgAl2O4 was prepared by combustion synthesis melt-casting under high gravity. Compared with common gravitational condition, under high-gravity condition the separation between ceramic and metal melts was accelerated, and thus the content of residual Ni in MgAl2O4 ingot was reduced. By the incorporation of…

The experimentally known perovskite-like materials BaYMn 2 O 5+δ (δ = 0, 0.5, 1) are characterized by a remarkably reversible oxygen-storage capacity at a moderate 500 °C. We try to elucidate the local structures of the vacancy arrangements in these compounds taking place after an oxygen release. This is done for the…

Fly ash cenospheres are inexpensive, readily available from coal burning or heavy oil combustion, not an eco-friendly material. If ways can be found to use this, it will serve the twin purposes of facilitating applications for the ash bearing materials and at the same time reduce pollution. One way to achieve this tas…
