Abstract: | The thesis entitled "Sol-Gel Alumina Nano Composites for
Functional Applications" investigate sol-gel methods of synthesis of alumina
nanocomposites special reference to alumina-aluminium titanate and alumina-lanthanum
phosphate composites. The functional properties such as thermal
expansion coefficient and thermal shock resistance, machinability of composites as well as thermal protection are highlighted in addition to novel
approach in synthesis of composites.A general introduction of alumina matrix composites materials,
followed by brief coverage of alumina-aluminium titanate and alumina-lanthanum
phosphate composites is highlight of the first chapter. The second
chapter deals with the sol-gel synthesis of aluminium titanate and alumina-aluminium
titanate composite. The synthesis of machinable substrate, based on
alumina and lanthanum phosphate forms the basis of the third chapter. The
fourth chapter describes the sol-gel coating of mullite on SiC substrate for the
possible gas filtration application. |
