Abstract: A process of forming a sintered article includes heating a green portion of a tape of polycrystalline ceramic and/or minerals in organic binder at a binder removal zone to a temperature sufficient to pyrolyze the binder; horizontally conveying the portion of tape with organic binder removed from the binder removal zone to a sintering zone; and sintering polycrystalline ceramic and/or minerals of the portion of tape at the sintering zone, wherein the tape simultaneously extends through the removal and sintering zones.

Abstract: A system, process and related sintered article are provided. The process includes supporting a piece of inorganic material with a pressurized gas and sintering the piece of inorganic material while supported by the pressurized gas by heating the piece of inorganic material to a temperature at or above a sintering temperature of the inorganic material such that the inorganic material is at least partially sintered forming the sintered article. The inorganic material is not in contact with a solid support during sintering. The sintered article, such as a ceramic article, is thin, has high surface quality, and/or has large surface areas.

Abstract: A tape green body including (i) inorganic sinterable material; (ii) an inorganic hydroxide; and (iii) a binder. The inorganic sinterable material can include a lithium-containing ceramic material. The inorganic hydroxide can be less than or equal 20 wt % of the tape green body. The inorganic hydroxide exhibits an endothermic decomposition. The tape green body exhibits a lack of ignition during a continuous process of transforming the tape green body into a ceramic tape at a conveyance rate of greater than or equal to 70 mm/min, or even greater than or equal to 100 mm/min. A method of manufacturing the ceramic tape from the tape green body includes a continuous binder burnout step that includes feeding the tape green body through a burnout heating zone having a burnout temperature sufficient to burn out at least a portion of the binder from the tape green body without igniting the tape green body.

Abstract: A battery is provided comprising a coated sintered cathode. The coated sintered cathode comprises at least one of lithium cobalt oxide (LiCoO2) or NMC (LiNi(1-x-y)MnxCoyO2). The coated sintered cathode also comprises a coating layer. The coating layer comprises at least one of aluminum oxide (Al2O3), aluminum fluoride (AlF3), zinc oxide (ZnO), magnesium oxide (MgO), titanium dioxide (TiO2), lanthanum oxide (La2O3), zirconium oxide (ZrO2), gallium oxide (Ga2O3), magnesium fluoride (MgF2), molybdenum trioxide (MoO3), selenium (Se), or phosphorous pentoxide (P2O5). The coating layer is coated on the sintered cathode by atomic layer deposition. The sintered cathode may form a cathode-electrolyte interface inside the battery, and the coating layer may be positioned at the cathode-electrolyte interface.
