Geopolymers exhibit various unique properties and characteristics, including high compressive strength, high temperature stability, and low thermal conductivity. As a relatively new and perspective material, the behavior of geopolymers subjected to high temperatures is being intensively studied nowadays. This review summarizes the recent achievements in the development of geopolymer-based fire resistance materials. Technological parameters, which influence thermal behavior of geopolymer-based materials, are also discussed. Besides that, recent applications of geopolymers according to their composition are presented.

Effect of La2O3 addition on thermal conductivity and high temperature stability of YSZ coating produced by EB-PVD was investigated. La2O3 was selected as an additive because it had a significant effect on suppressing densification of YSZ. The developed coating showed extremely low thermal conductivity as well as high resistance to sintering. Microstructural observation revealed that the coating had fine feather-like subcolumns and nanopores, which contributed to limit thermal transport. These nanostructures were thought to be formed by suppressing densification during deposition.

Abstract Sm2Zr2O7 is one of the most promising candidate materials for ultra-high temperature thermal barrier coatings. In this paper, a series of (Sm1-x1Yx1)2(Zr1-x2Yx2)2O7-x2 ceramics with different lattice sites replaced by Y3+ ions were successfully prepared by the high-temperature solid-phase sintering method. The effect of Y3+ doping on microstructure, phase composition, thermal conductivity and sintering behavior of modified Sm2Zr2O7 ceramics were investigated, respectively. The results showed that (Sm1-x1Yx1)2(Zr1-x2Yx2)2O7-x2 were composed of a single pyrochlore crystal phase within 20% Y3+ ions doping concentration. Compared with pure Sm2Zr2O7, the fracture toughness of each (Sm1-x1Yx1)2(Zr1-x2Yx2)2O7-x2 ceramic was significantly reduced. In terms of reducing the thermal conductivity of Sm2Zr2O7, the substitution of Y3+ ion for Zr4+ was more obvious than the substitution of Y3+ for Sm3+. Thermal conductivity of Sm2(Zr0.9Y0.1)2O6.9 was 1.315 W·m-1·K-1 at 1200 °C, which was the lowest among the studied ceramics.. Sm2(Zr0.9Y0.1)2O6.9 ceramic exhibited a lower grain growth rate at 1400 °C, and still remained a single pyrochlore crystal phase after sintering for 100 h, indicating that Sm2(Zr0.9Y0.1)2O6.9 had good high-temperature stability at 1400 °C.

Knowledge of the high-temperature properties of ternesite (Ca5(SiO4)2SO4) is becoming increasingly interesting for industry in different ways. On the one hand, the high-temperature product has recently been observed to have cementitious properties. Therefore, its formation and hydration characteristics have become an important field of research in the cement industry. On the other hand, it forms as sinter deposits in industrial kilns, where it can create serious problems during kiln operation. Here, we present two highlights of in situ Raman spectroscopic experiments that were designed to study the high-temperature stability of ternesite. First, the spectra of a natural ternesite crystal were recorded from 25 to 1230 °C, which revealed a phase transformation of ternesite to the high-temperature polymorph of dicalcium silicate (α’L-Ca2SiO4), while the sulfur is degassed. With a heating rate of 10 °C/h, the transformation started at about 730 °C and was completed at 1120 °C. Using in situ hyperspectral Raman imaging with a micrometer-scale spatial resolution, we were able to monitor the solid-state reactions and, in particular, the formation properties of ternesite in the model system CaO-SiO2-CaSO4. In these multi-phase experiments, ternesite was found to be stable between 930 to 1020–1100 °C. Both ternesite and α’L-Ca2SiO4 were found to co-exist at high temperatures. Furthermore, the results of the experiments indicate that whether or not ternesite or dicalcium silicate crystallizes during quenching to room temperature depends on the reaction progress and possibly on the gas fugacity and composition in the furnace.

ABSTRACTThe electrical and electromechanical properties of lithium niobate single crystals are investigated at high-temperatures. The total electrical conductivity is determined as a function of temperature by impedance spectroscopy for Z-cut crystals with different lithium content. For stoichiometric lithium niobate (sLN) the activation energy is found to be (1.49 ± 0.03) eV in the temperature range from 500 to 900 °C.Further, the piezoelectric properties (resonance frequency, Q-factor) of X-cut lithium niobate crystals are determined at high temperatures for samples with compositions ranging from congruent to stoichiometric and, subsequently, compared to the conductivity data in order to identify loss contributions.In this context, the high-temperature stability is examined for X- and Z-cut samples with compositions ranging from congruent to stoichiometric. Series of samples with and without additional alumina protection layers are annealed in air at 900 °C for approximately 50 h. Subsequently, depth profiles are measured by SNMS. In all cases, no lithium loss is observed and, therefore, a high-temperature stability of sLN for at least 50 h at 900 °C can be assumed in ambient air.Further, the influence of protective layers with different thicknesses and compositions is investigated for X- and Z-cut samples. A lithium loss in the first 300 nm is observed for the Z-cut samples, while the X-cut samples show a behavior dependent on the type of protecting layer.
