Comparative sintering behaviour of MOX powders synthesized through the freeze granulation or dry-cogrinding routes Guillaume Bernard-Granger, Florent Lebreton, Laure Ramond, Marion Le Guellec, Gabriella Cunha Costa Miranda, Abibatou Ndiaye, Thierry Gervais Abstract Two MOX powders containing 11 mol% Pu/(U+Pu) have been synthesized using the freeze granulation or dry-cogrinding routes. The sintering behaviour of green compacts has… Continue reading Comparative sintering behaviour of MOX powders synthesized through the freeze granulation or dry-cogrinding routes

Optimization of freeze granulation and sintering behavior of MgO granules for thermal interface materials Hyojung Cho, Rokhyeon Kim, Haewon Jung, Joo-Hwan Han, In Chul Jung, Jungho Ryu Abstract Heat management of high-performance secondary batteries, used in various applications that require high charging and discharging rates, such as electric vehicles and electronic devices, has recently been… Continue reading Optimization of freeze granulation and sintering behavior of MgO granules for thermal interface materials

Design and Process Considerations in Spray Freeze Drying Bernhard Luy, Matthias Plitzko, Howard Stamato Abstract Dynamic spray freeze drying combines spray freezing and rotary freeze drying to generate homogeneous, free-flowing lyophilized beads as a bulk intermediate product. This allows for filling on demand, with choices in dose strength and combinations of multiple active materials. Thus,… Continue reading Design and Process Considerations in Spray Freeze Drying

Compactability and sinterability of alumina granules made by spray freeze granulation drying and spray drying Naoki Kondo, Akihiro Shimamura, Mikinori Hotta, Junichi Tatami, Shinya Kawaguchi Abstract The compactability and sinterability of alumina granules prepared by spray freeze granulation drying (SFGD) and spray drying (SD) were compared. The strengths of the granules made by SFGD and… Continue reading Compactability and sinterability of alumina granules made by spray freeze granulation drying and spray drying
