This paper reports the fabrication and characterization of (Bi0.48Sb1.52)Te3 thick films using a tape casting process on glass substrates. A slurry of thermoelectric (Bi0.48Sb1.52)Te3 was developed and cured thick films were annealed in a vacuum chamber at 500–600 °C. The microstructure of these films was analyzed, and the Seebeck coefficient and electric conductivity were tested. It was found that the subsequent annealing process must be carefully designed to achieve good thermoelectric properties of these samples. Conductive films were obtained after annealing and led to acceptable thermoelectric performance. While the properties of these initial materials are not at the level of bulk materials, this work demonstrates that the low-cost tape casting technology is promising for fabricating thermoelectric modules for energy conversion.

The present study aimed at investigating the influence of the concentration of sodium silicate and sodium hexametaphosphate on the dispersion of an aqueous kaolinitic clay slurry regarding further use for the tape casting process. The zeta potential of the kaolinitic clay slurry matched the requirements for tape casting. The addition of magnesite in the kaolinitic slurries tended to increase the zeta potential towards the required limit values. Despite, the further addition of surfactants allowed improving the zeta potential in agreement with the tape casting conditions. Accordingly, the rheological behavior, under continuous and oscillatory flow conditions, of various mixtures of magnesite and a kaolinitic clay was studied. Regarding the pH and the zeta potential measurements, the E–F attraction prevailed at low pH value, and F–F or E–E attraction was predominant at high pH value. All slurries exhibited a shear thinning behavior, which was well-correlated by Herschel–Bulkley model. It appeared that the best stability for the kaolinitic clay slurries was obtained while using 0.4 mass% and 1.2 mass% of sodium hexametaphosphate and sodium silicate respectively. An increase in the magnesite concentration above 6 mass% led to a complex behavior with low cohesion energy due to the occurrence of soluble complexes.

Abstract The magnetoelectric effect in multiferroic materials has been widely studied for its fundamental interest and practical applications. The magnetoelectric effect observed for single phase materials like Cr2O3, BiFeO3, and Pb(Fe0.5Nb0.5)O3 is usually small. A much larger effect can be obtained in composites consisting of magnetostrictive and piezoelectric phases. This paper investigates the magnetoelectric effect of a multilayer (laminated) structure consisting of 6 nickel ferrite and 7 PFN relaxor layers. It describes the synthesis and tape casting process for Ni0.3Zn0.62Cu0.08Fe2O4 ferrite and relaxor PbFe0.5Nb0.5O3 (PFN). Magnetic hysteresis, ZFC - FC curves and dependencies of magnetization versus temperature for PFN relaxor and magnetoelectric composite were measured with a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) in an applied magnetic field up to 85 kOe at a temperature range of 10 – 400 K. Magnetoelectric effect at room temperature was investigated as a function of a static magnetic field (0.3 - 6.5 kOe) and the frequency of sinusoidal magnetic field (0.01 - 6.5 kHz). At lower magnetic field, the magnetoelectric coefficient increases slightly before reaching a maximum and then decreases. The magnetoelectric coefficient aME increases continuously as the frequency is raised, although this increase is less pronounced in the 1-6.5 kHz range. Maximum values of the magnetoelectric coefficient attained for the layered composites exceed about 50 mV/(Oe cm).

Tape casting process was used to produce Al2O3 substrates in an aqueous system with acrylic latex emulsion as binder. The present work studied the slurry formulations in aqueous medium of Al2O3 powders with different particle size distribution and made correlation to the green and sintered tapes. Two commercial alumina powders, one sub-micrometric and other micrometric were used. Compositions of Al2O3 slurries with 80 and 83 wt% of solids were prepared by dispersing the powders in water with a dispersant with subsequently additions of 7 and 10 wt% of binder. Sub-micrometric Al2O3 resulted in a high densification tapes regardless solid concentration and binder amount in the slurry, though green density was affected. For micrometric alumina, increasing the solid concentration resulted in a little higher final density.

This presentation introduces a new technique to manufacture continuously submicron thick ceramic green tapes and coatings from nano particulate suspensions. A profiled steel rod is used to coat large areas with a very low film thickness of down to 250 nm. This technique can easily be scaled up and is therefore suitable for mass production at high throughput and low cost. The profile rod technique could be a method to overcome the limit of the tape casting process and therefore this technique exhibits an enormous economical potential. The technique is demonstrated at the example of nano particulate indium tin oxide (ITO) and zinc oxide (ZnO) particles, which are both transparent conductive oxides (TCOs) and therefore interesting materials for printed displays etc. Nano particles from Evonik Degussa GmbH were first dispersed and stabilized in organic solvents. Subsequently, dispersions as well as slurries were prepared. Their rheological and wetting behavior were studied and the effect on the microstructure of the resulting layer was evaluated. Furthermore, the influence of the processing parameters during coating on the layer quality was analyzed. Finally, the functionality of the printed layers was proven by electrical measurements as well as the assembly of electron devices.
