摘要:
A process for producing a ceramic composite having a porous network. The process includes providing a photocurable ceramic dispersion. The dispersion consists of a photocurable polymer and a ceramic composition. The surface of the dispersion is scanned with a laser to cure the photocurable polymer to produce a photocured polymer/ceramic composition. The photocured composition useful as a polymer/ceramic composite, or the polymer phase can be removed by heating to a first temperature that is sufficient to burn out the photocured polymer. It is then heated to a second temperature that is higher than the first temperature and is sufficient to sinter the ceramic composition to produce a purely ceramic composition having a porous network. Preferably and more specifically, the process uses a stereolithographic technique for laser scanning. The process can form a high quality orthopedic implant that dimensionally matches the bone structure of a patient. The technique relies upon laser photocuring a dense colloidal dispersion into a desired complex three-dimensional shape. The shape is obtained from a CAT scan file of a bone and is rendered into a CAD file that is readable by the stereolithography instrument. Or the shape is obtained directly from a CAD file that is readable by the stereolithography instrument.
摘要:
A method for dispersing and reducing the rate of dissolution and/or hydration of colloidal ceramic suspensions is described. The method comprises adding to a ceramic suspension a non-polymeric hydroxylated organic compound. The organic compound has at least one hydroxyl group, preferably at least two hydroxyl groups. The organic compound also includes a functional group selected from the group consisting of a carboxyl, a carboxylate, a sulfonic acid, a sulfonate, a phosphoric acid, a phosphate, an amine, and a quaternary ammonium salt. The ceramic suspension typically comprises a colloidal suspension of a metal oxide, wherein the metal of the metal oxide is an alkali metal, alkaline-earth metal or a rare-earth metal, but preferably is magnesium, calcium or a rare-earth metal. The non-polymeric organic compound is added to the suspension in an amount effective to substantially disperse and reduce the rate of dissolution of the ceramic particles, such as from about 0.01 weight percent to about 5.0 weight percent.
摘要:
A process for producing porous ceramics with controlled microstructure. Colloidal suspensions of polymeric microspheres of a selected size and shape, and aluminum oxide particles are consolidated to form a compact. The compact is heated to decompose the microspheres to leave pores, and to sinter the compact, to form a porous ceramic body with a plurality of pores preferably substantially the same size and shape, where the pores are substantially spherical and are evenly distributed and noncontiguous throughout the ceramic matrix and with strength comparable to its dense state.
摘要:
A nanocomposite material formed of graphene and a mesoporous metal oxide having a demonstrated specific capacity of more than 200 F/g with particular utility when employed in supercapacitor applications. A method for making these nanocomposite materials by first forming a mixture of graphene, a surfactant, and a metal oxide precursor, precipitating the metal oxide precursor with the surfactant from the mixture to form a mesoporous metal oxide. The mesoporous metal oxide is then deposited onto a surface of the graphene.
摘要:
Nanocomposite materials having at least two layers, each layer consisting of one metal oxide bonded to at least one graphene layer were developed. The nanocomposite materials will typically have many alternating layers of metal oxides and graphene layers, bonded in a sandwich type construction and will be incorporated into an electrochemical or energy storage device.
