A method of treatment of bauxite residue resulting from a Bayer process of bauxite treatment in order to produce a solid product. The method comprises mixing a quantity of the bauxite residue (1) with a quantity of a glass material (2) to form a mixture. Then, compressing the mixture (4) to form a green body, and sintering (5) the green body. After cooling, the sintered green body thereby provides the solid product.

A method and apparatus for producing AlN whiskers includes reduced incorporation of metal particles, an AlN whisker body, AlN whiskers, a resin molded body, and a method for producing the resin molded body. The method for producing AlN whiskers includes heating an Al-containing material in a material accommodation unit to thereby generate Al gas; and introducing the Al gas into a reaction chamber through a communication portion while introducing nitrogen gas into the reaction chamber through a gas inlet port, to thereby grow AlN whiskers on the surface of an Al.sub.2O.sub.3 substrate placed in the reaction chamber.

An optical element reflects radiation, such as EUV radiation. The optical element includes a substrate with a surface to which a reflective coating is applied. The substrate has at least one channel through which a coolant can flow. The substrate is formed from fused silica, such as titanium-doped fused silica, or a glass ceramic. The channel has a length of at least 10 cm below the surface to which the reflective coating is applied. The cross-sectional area of the channel varies by no more than +/−20% over the length of the channel.

A ceramic circuit board includes: a ceramic board; and an internal conductor disposed in the ceramic board, in which the ceramic board contains glass, a willemite filler, and an alumina filler, and an average particle diameter of the willemite filler is larger than an average particle diameter of the alumina filler.

Optical glass, a preparation method thereof, a backlight module and a display module. The optical glass comprises a glass substrate and optical masterbatches, which are dispersed in the glass substrate, each optical masterbatch comprises a quantum dot fluorescent agent inner core and an encapsulation shell which encloses the quantum dot fluorescent agent inner core. A quantum dot fluorescent agent is protected by the encapsulation shell and the luminous efficiency is high; when the optical glass is applied to a display module, the color gamut may be improved; moreover, the glass is capable of preventing against the invasion of water vapor, even the quantum dot fluorescent agent at an edge of the glass rarely fails, and an edge failure size is basically avoided; meanwhile, the expansion coefficient is small, and an expansion space reserved during assembly is extremely small.

A method includes impregnating a region of a glass sheet with a filler material in a liquid state. The glass sheet includes a plurality of glass soot particles. The filler material is solidified subsequent to the impregnating step to form a glass/filler composite region of the glass sheet.
