The development of zirconia ceramic formulations for additive manufacturing has been assuming increasing relevance given the importance of these materials for different industrial and biotechnology applications. The super-loading of powders in the ceramic suspension is the key to densification of the parts during sintering, where resins aided by solvents, dispersants and organic vehicles …
This project aims to develop an innovative manufacturing route to produce synthetic carbonate core plugs with controlled micro and macroporosity, mimicking natural rocks. Core plugs, cylindrical samples cut from rocks, are used to characterize the geological and petrophysical properties of a geological formation, such as an oil reservoir. They are also used to test new well-logging tools,…
Hydrophones are electroacoustic aquatic transducers that convert mechanical energy from sound waves to electrical energy. Such sensors are used in applications such as in the study of marine biology, analysis and design of vessels, sonar systems, torpedoes and surveillance systems. The spherical hydrophone model consists of two hollow piezoceramic hemispheres coated internally and externa…
This project studies the densification of isostatically pressed green ceramic balls and the impacts of the non-homogeneity after sintering. Ceramic balls are components used in precision applications such as bearing elements and hyperspheres of hip implant. The process of isostatic pressing, followed by green machining, is the most used to obtain balls. Though it is recognized to be the p…
This project studies the use of robots in green ceramics machining, specifically, the machining of high voltage porcelain isolators. The green state, the given name to the material conformed before heat treatment, is characterized by a very low strength and high brittleness where the forces applied in the machining, of a very abrasive kind, can generate/develop defects in the part, that w…
This research internship project aims to develop a manufacturing route to produce calcium carbonate samples with controlled porosity at multiple scales. This BEPE is part of a PhD project to produce artificial carbonate rocks. Ceramics with hierarchical porosity have many desirable properties and are naturally found in porous rocks, coral reefs, and bones. However, it is challenging to ma…
