    Abstract: A ceramic liner can include a monolithic body having a surface portion and a bulk portion. The surface portion can have a thickness less than the total thickness of the monolithic body. The monolithic body can include an amorphous phase. The amorphous phase can be discontinuous. At least one member of the discontinuous phase can be embedded in the surface portion. The bulk portion can be substantially free of the amorphous phase. A method of forming a ceramic liner can include providing a furnace with a coating and a bulk material of the ceramic liner and heating the bulk material and the coating. In an embodiment, a coated lining form can be used to provide the coating. In a particular embodiment, the coating can be transferred to the bulk material from the coated lining form.

    Abstract: Various embodiments disclosed relate to an optical window including an infrared light transmissive optical material. The optical material includes a first ceramic phase including a first ceramic material and a first dopant distributed therein. The optical material further includes a second ceramic phase homogenously intermixed with the first ceramic phase and comprising a second ceramic material and a second dopant distributed therein. The first dopant increases the refractive index of the first ceramic material and the second dopant decreases the refractive index of the second ceramic material. The first dopant and the second dopant are present in an amount such that a difference in a refractive index of the first ceramic phase and of the second ceramic phase is in a range of from about 0.001 to about 0.2.

    Abstract: A spiral-orifice ceramic filter for metal casting, including spiral channels and two drain openings, where the spiral channels are distributed in a ceramic substrate in a staggered manner. By adoption of the spiral channel structure, molten metal may rotate to generate a centrifugal force while flowing forwards so as to promote separation of inclusions. The spiral-orifice ceramic filter for metal casting includes the following components: 90-95 wt % of MgO, 4-8 wt % of SiO2 and 2-4 wt % of ZrO2. Therefore, the spiral-orifice ceramic filter for metal casting has high strength under normal temperature and optional thermal impact resistance under high temperature, and may tolerate the impact of molten metal at 1700° C. or higher without break. The ceramic substrate and the spiral channel are superficially coated with one layer of functional oxide prepared from CaO.2Al2O3, CaO.6Al2O3, Al2O3, TiO2, or Re2O3.
