In order to solve this problem, direct fabrication of Al2O3 ceramic structures is conducted by laser engineered net shaping system and pure ceramic powders. Grain refinement strengthening method by doping Zr O2 and dispersion strengthening method by doping Si C are proposed to suppress cracks in fabricating Al2O3 structure. Phase compositions, microstructures as well as mechanical properties of fabricated specimens are then analyzed. The results show that the proposed two methods are effective in suppressing cracks and structures of single-bead wall, arc and cylinder ring are successfully deposited. Stable phase of α-Al2O3 and t-Zr O2 are obtained in the fabricated specimens. Micro-hardness higher than 1700 HV are also achieved for both Al2O3 and Al2O3/Zr O2, which are resulted from fine directional crystals generated by the melting-solidification process. Results presented indicate that additive manufacturing is a very attractive technique for the production of high-performance ceramic structures in a single step.展开更多

The paste was synthesized from fly ash and sodium silicate solution and cured at room temperature, 60 and 80℃ for 24 hours. To simulate flooring application, the geopolymer paste was casted on Portland cement cubes which have been fully hydrated for 28 days. Silica fume was added to reduce cracks but at the same time compressive strength decreased. Averaged compressive strength decreased from 53 MPa to 37 MPa for paste cured at 60℃. Curing at higher temperatures produced stronger geopolymer, with compressive strength of 12 MPa, 53 MPa and 67 MPa for geopolymer cured at room temperature, 60℃ and 80℃ respectively, however, higher curing temperature resulted in more cracking when the geopolymer paste was applied on the Portland cement substrate. Averaged hardness values were 65 and 43 Brinnel scale (BHN), and wear rate, measured using Ogoshi machine, were 0.66 and 1.80 mm3/min for samples cured at 60 and 80℃ respectively. Unless surface hardening was applied, the material is not suitable for flooring but do so for decorative masonry.展开更多
