A method for making proppant particles is provided. The method can include providing a slurry of ceramic raw material, the slurry containing a reactant including a polycarboxylic acid, and flowing the slurry through a nozzle in a gas while vibrating the slurry to form droplets. The method can also include receiving the droplets in a vessel containing a liquid having an upper surface in direct contact with the gas, the liquid containing a coagulation agent. The method can further include reacting the reactant with the coagulation agent to cause coagulation of the reactant in the droplets. The droplets can then be transferred from the liquid and dried to form green pellets. The method can include sintering the green pellets in a selected temperature range to form the proppant particles. In one or more exemplary embodiments, the reactant can be or include a PMA:PAA copolymer.

The present invention relates to a process for preparing a humidity sensor based on resistive type porous Magnesium Ferrite (MgFe2O4) pellets and a humidity sensor thereof. More particularly, the present invention includes a synthesis process of preparing 30 to 40% porous MgFe2O4 pellets. The process further includes making Ohmic contacts on the porous MgFe2O4 pellets. The process is very cost effective and optimized to keep the resistance of the porous MgFe2O4 pellets in the range 200-300 MΩ. Further, the response and recovery time of the porous MgFe2O4 pellets to humidity is in the range of few seconds only. Further, the porous MgFe2O4 pellets can be used for humidity sensing for more than 12 months. Due to resistance stability even after long-term exposure in humidity, the porous MgFe2O4 pellets do not require flash heating. Further, the humidity sensor prepared according to the process is highly sensitive towards relative humidity changes as the same is based on the measurement of resistance changes as compared to known humidity sensors which are based on the measurement of capacitance changes.

The invention relates to a bone formation agent of porous calcium phosphate having an isotropic sintered structure and, between the particles of the calcium phosphate, statistically distributed pores in a plurality of discrete size ranges. The bone formation agent has at least two, preferably three, discrete pore size distributions. Its porosity has an irregular geometric shape. The sintered particles of the calcium phosphate have a particle size smaller than 63 μm with a d50 value in the range from 5 to 20 μm. The interconnecting pore share in the overall porosity is limited to pore sizes less than 10 μm. The bone formation agent can be used in the form of a granulate or shaped body for bone regeneration. In the case of granulates, the maximum pore diameters are matched to the granulate diameter. The invention relates also to a method of producing the bone formation agent.
