A nitride-based ceramics resin composite body having thermal conductivity, electrical insulation, and adhesion to adherends equal to conventional products, and having improved heat resistance reliability during the reflow process, and a thermal conductive insulating adhesive sheet using the same are provided. A nitride-based ceramics resin composite body in which a thermosetting resin composition is impregnated in a porous nitride-based ceramics sintered body is provided. The thermosetting resin composition includes a specific epoxy resin and a bismaleimide triazine resin, and a water absorption of the thermosetting resin composition in a completely cured state measured in accordance with method A in JIS K7209 (2000) is 1% by mass or less.

Disclosed are: damage-resistant ECMCs that need to work and remain elastic between minus 120° C. and positive 300° C.; ECMCs that need to be able to contain a flame of 1900° C. for more than 90 minutes; and composite structures, especially highly stressed structures. One of the characteristic problems of ceramic matrices is their fragility. Indeed, when a fracture starts, it propagates easily in the matrix. Disclosed are elastic ceramic matrix composites (ECMCs), for which: the ceramic matrix is split into solid “ceramic microdomains” (CMDs); the CMDs are connected to one another by a dense network of “elastic microelements” (EMEs); and the bonds between the EMEs and the CMDs are strong chemical bonds, preferably covalent.

A preparation method for an yttrium aluminum garnet continuous fiber. The method prepares a spinnable precursor sol by utilizing an Al.sub.13 colloidal particles contained alumina sol, γ-AlOOH nano-dispersion, yttria sol, glacial acetic acid and polyvinylpyrrolidone, then prepares a gel continuous fiber by adopting a dry spinning technique, and carries out a heat treatment to obtain the yttrium aluminum garnet continuous fiber.

Ceramic slurries may include ceramic particles, a photoreactive-photostable hybrid binder, and a photoinitiator. The photoreactive-photostable hybrid binder may include a photoreactive organic resin component, a photoreactive siloxane component, and one or more photostable siloxane components. Methods of forming a ceramic part may include curing a portion of a ceramic slurry by exposing the portion of the ceramic slurry to light to form a green ceramic part, and partially firing the green ceramic part to form a brown ceramic part. The brown ceramic part may be sintered at or above a sintering temperature of the ceramic particles to form a ceramic part, wherein sintering includes heating the brown ceramic part to a sufficient temperature to promote reaction bonding that converts silica from the photoreactive-photostable hybrid binder into silicates that bond with the ceramic particles.

A ceramic powder for a ceramic component, in particular based on zirconia and/or alumina, in particular for a timepiece or jewelry piece. The powder includes at least one noble metal among platinum, rhodium, osmium, palladium, ruthenium and iridium, at a quantity of less than or equal to 5% by weight.

This disclosure relates to a polycrystalline diamond (PCD) body comprising a PCD material formed of intergrown diamond grains forming a diamond network, and an iron-containing binder.
