    Pressureless Joining of Soda Lime Silicate Glass Using Polysilazane-Derived Silica at Near-Room Temperature
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2025) Karacasulu, Levent; Biesuz, Mattia; Pastorelli, Virginia; Vakifahmetoglu, Cekdar; Sglavo, Vincenzo M.; Ferraris, Monica; Soraru, Gian D.
    Perhydropolysilazane (PHPS) pre-ceramic polymer was used to join soda lime silicate glass at temperatures below 200 degrees C under pressureless conditions. The results show that: (i) the junction material is largely converted to silica at 100 degrees C and fully converted to glass at 150 degrees C; (ii) the samples treated at room temperature and 100 degrees C show a perfectly dense and clean bond, whereas porosity develops starting from 150 degrees C as a result of the hydrolysis reactions and solvent evaporation; (iii) a maximum tensile bond strength of about 5-6 MPa is obtained after treatments at 100 degrees C. Remarkably, after treatment at 500 degrees C, the junction remains intact. These preliminary findings provide the first successful attempt regarding the use of PHPS as a joining material to produce inorganic and transparent bonds for glass at relatively low temperatures.

    Ultrafast High-Temperature Sintering of Yttria-Stabilized Zirconia in Reactive N<sub>2</Sub> Atmosphere
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2025) Karacasulu, Levent; de Beauvoir, Thomas Herisson; De Bona, Emanuele; Cassetta, Michele; Vakifahmetoglu, Cekdar; Sglavo, Vincenzo M.; Biesuz, Mattia
    So far, ultrafast high-temperature sintering (UHS) has always been carried out in an inert environment. In the present work, we investigated UHS of 3YSZ in nitrogen and argon atmosphere showing that "the atmosphere matters". Highly densified samples can be obtained in both environments but densification and grain growth are significantly retarded in N-2. Moreover, the phase evolution is strongly atmosphere-dependent with the samples treated in Ar remaining tetragonal and those treated under N-2 progressively reducing their tetragonality, eventually converting into cubic zirconia and rock salt oxynitride. The results can be explained by the incorporation of nitrogen within the ZrO2 lattice. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy demonstrates that while the ionic bulk conductivity are marginally influenced by the sintering atmosphere, the grain boundaries' capacitive behavior strongly changes. After UHS under 30 A, excellent ionic conductors were obtained without substantial grain boundary-blocking effects.

    On the Temperature Measurement During Ultrafast High-Temperature Sintering (uhs): Shall We Trust Metal-Shielded Thermocouples?
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2024) Biesuz, Mattia; Karacasulu, Levent; Vakifahmetoglu, Cekdar; Sglavo, Vincenzo M.
    Temperature measurement upon ultrafast high-temperature sintering (UHS) is a crucial task. Herein, we provide some arguments posing concerns about the use of metal-shielded thermocouples as temperature probes in UHS. The discussion is based on literature data and on some ad hoc experiments. In detail, we show at least two cases in the literature where the use of a shielded thermocouple causes a substantial underestimation of the UHS temperature. The argumentation is based on comparing the thermocouples read and the observed phase and microstructural evolution. Moreover, by means of a simple experimental design, we show that a metal shield on the thermocouple tip can substantially reduce the measured temperature. Since the metal shield is orders of magnitude more thermally conductive than the graphite felt used as heating element in UHS, it efficiently removes heat from the thermocouple tip region. As such, data acquired from shielded thermocouples must be treated with care.
