Reframing the Concept of Nanotechnology Andrew R. Barron An industry in itself? No. But product applications
abound—and so do technology transfer issues. 32nd ICACC—Continuing Growth at Daytona Beach James D. Sawyer, Editor Highlights
of the technical program for the 32nd International Conference and
Exposition on Advanced Ceramics and a preview of the Exposition. Nanoceramics—stepping back to the future Alan Rawle Basic physics (and some sage advice from Churchill)
can help overcome technical challenges. Egyptian Waste Clays Used for Brickmaking M.A. Serry, M.S. El-Maghraby and M.A. Mandour Waste clay
deposits accumulated at two Egyptian iron ore mines have been investigated and
deemed useful as brickmaking raw materials. Exclusive Online Content
Metin Arikan, Konstantin Sobolev, Tomris Ertün, Asim Yeginobali and Pelin Turker Addition of thermally
activated kaolin to cement, even regular-grade cement and concrete, improves
compressive strength and significantly decreases production expenses. Preparation of ZnO Nanocrystallites by a Microwave Hydrothermal Process Huang Jian-feng, Xia Chang-kui, Cao Li-yun, Wu Jian-peng, He Hai-yan ZnO nanocrystallites have been prepared successfully by a novel microwave process. The influences of [Zn2+] concentrations, filling ratios of the autoclave, and concentration ratios of [Zn2+]/[OH-] on the phase compositions and morphologies of ZnO crystallites were investigated.
