Disclosed herein are embodiments of low temperature co-fireable dielectric materials which can be used in conjunction with high dielectric materials to form composite structures, in particular for isolators and circulators for radiofrequency components. Embodiments of the low temperature co-fireable dielectric materials can be scheelite or garnet structures, for example, bismuth vanadate. Adhesives and/or glue is not necessary for the formation of the isolators and circulators.

A refractory article including a body having central opening extending through at least a portion of the body, the central opening having a receiving surface having a convex curvature. In an embodiment, the body can include a coupling protrusion extending from a portion of an upper surface of the body and a coupling depression on a portion of a bottom surface of the body.

The invention relates to a process for producing proppants, including the following steps: providing red mud, providing fly ash, producing a mixture from the red mud and the fly ash so that the mixture has a first moisture content in the range of 7 to 30 wt. %, producing a granular product from the mixture, and sintering the granular product.

A manufacturing method of a ring-shaped element for an etcher, comprises a granulation operation comprising i) a slurry manufacturing process of preparing a slurry by mixing a raw material including boron carbide, a sinterability enhancer with a solvent; and ii) a granulation process of drying the slurry to prepare granulated raw material; a molding operation of manufacturing a green body by molding the granulated raw material; a sintering operation of carbonizing and sintering the green body to manufacture a sintered body; a shape operation of shaping the sintered body to a ring-shaped element for an etcher. The sinterability enhancer comprises one selected from the group consisting of carbon, boron oxide and combinations thereof.

A method for manufacturing a C/C part includes fabricating an oxidized PAN fiber preform comprising a stack of sheets of multi-axial, non-crimp, OPF fabric. The method includes positioning the oxidized PAN fiber preform with a female forming tool, the female forming tool comprising a die recess, and forming the oxidized PAN fiber preform into a shaped body. The shaped body is removed from the female forming tool and moved into a graphite fixture for carbonization. The carbonized shaped body may also be densified into the final C/C part. The carbonized shaped body can also be placed in a perforated graphite fixture for densification and removed from the perforated graphite fixture between densification processes for machining and for facilitating further densification.
