    Abstract
    Silicon oxycarbide (SiOC) materials derived from silicone attracted great attention for their superior high-temperature behavior. In the present study, Si (Ti)OC and Si (Ti,Al)OC nanocomposites, in which alkoxide precursors were used with the main silicone precursor, have been compared with SiOC material. Although in SiOC, C was bonded with Si in a carbon-rich SiOC phase, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) showed that TiC was the preferred state for C atoms upon adding Ti into the system. This claim was also substantiated by Raman spectroscopy, where adding Ti into the system lowered the intensity of the D band, indicating the high affinity of C to... 

    The Synthesis of Sialon Nano Particles by Sol- Gel Procedure and Investigation of Properties of its Erosion

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Fathi, Hamed (Author) ; Nemati, Ali (Supervisor) ; Halali, Mohammad (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Sialons are materials which crystallize in four elements system (Si-Al-O-N). These materials have been widely observed by researchers because of their suitable properties like: high toughness and strength in high temperatures, high resistance to corrosion and stability in thermal shock. Because of these properties,Sialons are anti erosion materials. In this research, by controling the situations, mullite has been synthesized by sol-gel procedure. Then the powder has been ground by ballmill for 12 hours and by spex for 30 minutes. Then the produced powder was mixed with distinct amount of graphite and nano silica and was nitrided in the furnace at 1500 ̊C and was heated for 5 hours. Also... 

    Effect of Mullite Content on HAp-Mullite Composite for Hard Tissue Application

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Rahmani, Marzieh (Author) ; Faghihi Sani, Mohammad Ali (Supervisor) ; Solati Hashjin, Mehran (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    In this study effect of various mullite contents, as reinforcement phase, on phase combination, fracture surface and mechanical propertiese of hydroxyapatite- mullite composite has been investigated.
    The used hydroxyapatite powder was synthesized through acid- base route and further calcination. XRD results demonstrated partially decomposition of HA in to β- TCP and CaO during the calcination. SEM image of the prepared HA powder showed that they were spherical and agglomarated.
    The mixed HA with various amounts of the ball- milled mullite (10- 40 wt%)were pressed and sintered at 1350°C for 2h. Dominant phase in all composite samplese after sintering was Ca9Al(PO4)7.

    Abstract
    A near fully dense mullite-TiB2-CNTs hybrid composite was prepared successfully trough spark plasma sintering. 1 wt%CNT and 10 wt%TiB2 were mixed with nano-sized mullite powders using a high energy mixer mill. Spark plasma sintering was carried out at 1350 °C under the primary and final pressure of 10 MPa and 30 MPa, respectively. XRD results showed mullite and TiB2 as dominant crystalline phases accompanied by tiny peaks of alumina. The microstructure of prepared composites demonstrated uniform distribution of TiB2 reinforcements in mullite matrix without any pores and porosities as a result of near fully densified spark plasma sintered composite. The fracture surface of composite revealed...
