YAG has many excellent features and therefore has a wide range of applications. Preparation and properties of YAG porous ceramics via the casting method is investigated. Through analysis and discussion, the following conclusions can be obtained. With the increase of the content of foaming agent, in the foaming process of the slurry, bubbles generated by the foaming agent and water are gradually increased, the more pores are left in the body after casting, and when the blowing agent is too much, excessive bubbles are generated, which can lead to a very low strength of the green body and can not be formed and operated later. As the ratio of water to material increases, the porosity of the porous material increases. This is because when the blowing agent is constant, the amount of water required for foaming is constant, and the amount of foam generated is also constant. When the content of foaming agent and the ratio of water to material is both 1, the porosity and compressive strength is better.

The paper presents an aluminum foam experimental technique using the microwave energy. The raw material was recycling aluminum waste processed by ecological melting and gas atomizing to obtain the fine powder required in the foaming process. The powder mixture was completed with dolomite as a foaming agent. The products had a fine and homogeneous porous structure (pore size between 0.4-0.9 mm). The density (1.17-1.19 g/cm3), the compressive strength (6.83-7.01 MPa) and the thermal conductivity (5.71-5.84 W/m·K) had values almost similar to the foams made by conventional methods.

This paper presents a comparative analysis of the foaming process developed in hydroxyapatite (HAp)-based bicomposites as a function of the foaming agent. The matrix of the biocomposite consists of either submicronic or micronic powder particles of HAp. The titanium hydride powder was added as reinforcement’s precursor as well as blowing agent, and in order to increase the biocomposites’ porosity calcium carbonate was added as space holder agent. The powders mixture was homogenized in a planetary ball mill with a single grinding bowl for 1 minute in air. Uniaxial cold compaction at 120-170 MPa was performed in order to obtain cylindrical green parts, which next were heated in argon atmosphere using the two step sintering technique at temperatures of 900 °C for 1 minute and 800°C for 450 - 600 minutes. The porosity of the biocomposite is analysed through calculations and SEM and EDS analysis highlighting the influence of the above mentioned foaming techniques (blowing and space holder).

Gas Efficiency

A non-isothermal pressure-balanced bubble-growth (PBB) model has been proposed based on mass, momentum and energy conservation, which additionally considered the decrease in the internal energy of gas due to the work done by gas expansion in bubble. The model could accurately predict the bubble size and expansion ratio for the melt foaming of four polymers for a wide range of cell densities from 1.5×1013 to 1.9×1015 cells/m3. Furthermore, the simulation results indicate that the bubble shell resisted bubble growth and consumed significant energy, preventing the growth of some small nucleations. During the melt foaming process, the energy cost of the linear polymer had a long-term effect, which reduced the bubble size, while that of the long-chain branched polymer had a short-term effect, thereby increasing the expansion ratio. Finally, we defined the gas efficiency of the foaming agent to evaluate the economic feasibility of the foaming agent in a foaming process.

In this study, porous ceramics were produced by using two methods: the polymeric sponge and foam method. A study of the effect of viscosity on the characteristics of the final product produced using the polymeric sponge method revealed that the microstructure of porous ceramics is highly affected by the viscosity of the slurry. The optimal ratio between porosity and the strength of the porous material was achieved by subsequently repeating the immersing and drying processes. A study of the porous material obtained using the foam method revealed that the pore size and foam volume can be controlled by varying the amounts of anhydride and thermal blowing agent. The problem related to foam collapsing was solved by using a thermal blowing agent. The microstructure of the samples was characterized by SEM.

Porous Zirconia

Porous ceramics have separation/collection (open pore) and heat-shielding/sound-absorbing (closed pore) characteristics not found in conventional dense ceramics, increasing their industrial importance along with dense ceramics. Reticulated porous ceramics, a type of porous ceramic material, are characterized by a three-dimensional network structure having high porosity and permeability. Although there have been numerous studies of porous zirconia, which is already widely used, there are insufficient reports on reticulated porous zirconia, and it is still challenging to improve the compressive strength of reticulated porous ceramics thus far, especially considering that too few studies have been published on this topic. Therefore, we prepared reticulated porous zirconia specimens using the replica template method. In this study, the compressive strength outcomes of reticulated porous zirconia were analyzed by controlling the PPI value (25, 45, 60, and 80 PPI) of the sacrificial polymer template, the average zirconia particle size (as-received, coarse, intermediate, and fine), and the sintering temperature (1400, 1500, and 1600 °C). Consequently, we confirm that it is possible to prepare reticulated porous zirconia with a wide range of strengths (0.16~1.26 MPa) as needed with an average particle size and while properly controlling the sintering temperature.

Meteorological Phenomenon

This article explores how the Nahua of late Postclassic Mesoamerica (1200–1521 CE) created living and material embodiments of their wind god constructed on the basis of sensory experiences that shaped their conception of this divinized meteorological phenomenon. In this process, they employed chromatic and design devices, based on a wide range of natural elements, to add several layers of meaning to the human, painted, and sculpted supports dressed in the god’s insignia. Through a comparative examination of pre-Columbian visual production—especially codices and sculptures—historical sources mainly written in Nahuatl during the viceregal period, and ethnographic data on indigenous communities in modern Mexico, my analysis targets the body paint and shell jewelry of the anthropomorphic “images” of the wind god, along with the Feathered Serpent and the monkey-inspired embodiments of the deity. This study identifies the centrality of other human senses beyond sight in the conception of the wind god and the making of its earthly manifestations. Constructing these deity “images” was tantamount to creating the wind because they were intended to be visual replicas of the wind’s natural behavior. At the same time, they referred to the identity and agency of the wind god in myths and rituals.
