    A N N Department of Materials Science U A L R E P O R Glass and Ceramics T 2 0 1 5 Preface In June 2015 we could welcome our new colleague Prof. Kyle G. Webber heading the func- tional ceramics department. Together with two research fellows from his DFG funded Emmy- Noether-Group he started his research activities in the field of ferroelectric ceramics. After transfer of unique experimental facilities from TU Darmstadt to FAU Erlangen his experimental equipment is ready for work. In the glass department (Prof. Dominique de Ligny) research centers on a better understanding of light interaction with glass as well as response to external stress. Laser glass interaction is ex- plored for new functionalization of glass by surface texturing. The disordered structure of glass imposes the development of specific instrumentation as vibrational spectroscopy. A new setup coupling Raman and Brillouin spectroscopy as well as a calorimeter allows new and unique pro- spective ways. In the biomaterials department (Prof. Stephan E. Wolf), the DFG funded Emmy-Noether- Research Group on biomimetic materials started the research activities after completing the refur- nishment of the laboratories. Work is focused on identifying the process-structure-property rela- tionships in biominerals and subsequent in vitro mimesis by biomimetic crystallization at ambient conditions. Initial results were published in Nature Communications (see publications). Work of the research group on cellular ceramics (Dr. Tobias Fey) is centered on microstruc- ture characterisation applying X-ray microtomography and testing of the mechanical and thermal properties of cellular ceramics. Massive strain amplification lattice structures were investigated by experimental and theoretical approaches.

What is glass? • Glass is not a single composition but rather is a state of matter, a subset of the solid state • A glass is a network of atoms (most commonly silicon) bonded to each other through covalent bonds with oxygen atoms • A silica-based glass is formed of silica tetrahedra bonded together in a random arrangement • Window glass is usually based on the soda-lime-silica (Na 2O-CaO-SiO 2) system. Bioactive glasses also contains these components, but in different proportions to inert glasses What is glass? Operational definition (ASTM) • A glass is an inorganic product of melting which has cooled and become rigid without crystallising Structural definition • A glass is a non-crystalline solid Structural definition + internal stability A glass is a non-crystalline solid that presents the glass-transition phenomenon. The physical state is called the vitreous state 13 TG : transition temperature, h(T G) 10 dPa.s What is glass? Classification Natural glasses Eruptive rocks: obsidian Shock-wave melting (meteorites): tektite Artificial glasses Oxide glasses Halogenide glasses Calcogenide glasses Metallic glasses What is glass?

  • Glass and Glass-Ceramics
    Chapter 3 Sintering and Microstructure of Ceramics 3.1. Sintering and microstructure of ceramics We saw in Chapter 1 that sintering is at the heart of ceramic processes. However, as sintering takes place only in the last of the three main stages of the process (powders o forming o heat treatments), one might be surprised to see that the place devoted to it in written works is much greater than that devoted to powder preparation and forming stages. This is perhaps because sintering involves scientific considerations more directly, whereas the other two stages often stress more technical observations M in the best possible meaning of the term, but with manufacturing secrets and industrial property aspects that are not compatible with the dissemination of knowledge. However, there is more: being the last of the three stages M even though it may be followed by various finishing treatments (rectification, decoration, deposit of surfacing coatings, etc.) M sintering often reveals defects caused during the preceding stages, which are generally optimized with respect to sintering, which perfects them M for example, the granularity of the powders directly impacts on the densification and grain growth, so therefore the success of the powder treatment is validated by the performances of the sintered part. Sintering allows the consolidation M the non-cohesive granular medium becomes a cohesive material M whilst organizing the microstructure (size and shape of the grains, rate and nature of the porosity, etc.). However, the microstructure determines to a large extent the performances of the material: all the more reason why sintering Chapter written by Philippe BOCH and Anne LERICHE.
