Through fundamental research on structure-property relations, using complementary simulation, spectroscopic and functional characterization methods, we will map the "genome" and develop new active glasses and glass-ceramics with promising applications. For that, the core group of the Center will comprise 13 professors at USP and UFSCar (both located in São Carlos) who are experts in engin…
Sinterized vitroceramics for ceramic claddings with a high esthetic appeal are commercially manufactured by a single company in the world, the Japanese firm Nippon Electric Glass (NEG). The main commercial vitroceramic product for cladding is composed of the pseudo-wollastonita crystalline phase, an acclaimed success, but of restricted use owing to the high price. Currently we are witness…
Glass ceramics, polycrystalline ceramics obtained from controlled crystallization of glasses, have several advantages over precursor glasses and same composition ceramics obtained by the traditional method from powdered raw materials, due to the variety of special microstructures that cannot be produced in any other material. However, residual stresses arise during crystallization and can…
Flash sintering is a promising ceramic-making technique using an electric field to enhance sintering that belongs to a set of electric or magnetic Field Assisted Sintering Techniques known as FAST. The boost with the applied voltage has resulted remarkably with ceramic as Y2O3-stabilized ZrO2, lowering the sintering time from hours to a few seconds and the temperature by hundred degrees c…
Tape casting has been widely used in the electronics industry in multi-layer capacitors, Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMs) and Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC). This forming technique essentially consists of the deposition of a slip or suspension of ceramic particles on a polymer film. After evaporation of the organic fraction and sintering, dense or porous ceramic films or thin tapes …

The present research aims at the development of supported catalysts to promote the conversion of biogenic molecules (e.g. sugars, lignin fractions and others) into chemicals. The central idea is to prepare hybrid meso/macroporous glasses that are sufficiently stable to the corrosive environment of the biomass chemical conversion. The use of glasses as supports allow achieving the desired …
