Abstract
A lead-free piezoelectric ceramic, (1-x)Ba(Zr_0.2Ti_0.8)O₃-x(Ba_0.7Ca_0.3)TiO₃ (hereafter (1-x)BZT-xBCT), was investigated for functional device applications. Lead-free piezoelectric materials with high piezoelectric charge coefficients and voltage coefficients are indispensable for functional industrial applications. Piezoelectric ceramic specimens tend to shrink in size during the sintering process without melting. This study focused on this phenomenon..... More

Abstract
This study on the chlorination of ilmenite ore was carried out using chlorine gas and coke as the chlorinating and reduction agents in a static bed reactor for the selective removal of iron. The effect of the amount of coke, the partial pressure of the chlorine gas and the reaction..... More

Abstract
The mechanical properties of nickel-base superalloys used in disk and blade materials for gas turbine engines can be maximized by controlling their microstructure, such as the size of precipitates. In this study, we investigated the size of gamma prime precipitates after age hardening heat treatment at 650-980 oC for 1-48..... More
