Ice-templated porous alumina structures

Abstract

The formation of regular patterns is a common feature of many solidification processes involving cast materials. We describe here how regular patterns can be obtained in porous alumina by controlling the freezing of ceramic slurries followed by subsequent ice sublimation and sintering, leading to multilayered porous alumina structures with homogeneous and well-defined architecture. We discuss the relationships between the experimental results, the physics of ice, and the interaction between inert particles and the solidification front during directional freezing. The anisotropic interface kinetics of ice leads to numerous specific morphological features in the structure. The structures obtained here could have numerous applications, including ceramic filters and biomaterials, and could be the basis for dense multilayered composites after infiltration with a selected second phase.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
