Described herein are articles and methods of making articles, for example glass articles, comprising a thin sheet and a carrier, wherein the thin sheet and carrier are bonded together using a modification (coating) layer, for example an aromatic polymer coating layer, and associated deposition methods and inert gas treatments that may be applied on the thin sheet, the carrier, or both, to control van der Waals, hydrogen and covalent bonding between the thin sheet and the carrier. The modification layer bonds the thin sheet and carrier together with sufficient bond strength to prevent delamination of the thin sheet and the carrier during high temperature processing while preventing a permanent bond during high temperature processing.

A preparation method of heat-resistant adhesive of silicon-boron-carbon-zirconium modified aluminum-zirconium phosphate for zirconium oxide ceramics is provided. The high-temperature adhesive can generate various high-temperature resistant phases such as zirconia, aluminum phosphate, zirconium phosphate and aluminum borate in situ of the high-temperature adhesive at high temperatures. As the processing temperature increases, the content of zirconia in the high-temperature adhesive continuously increases, and the composition tends to form a stable composite phase mainly composed of aluminum phosphate and zirconia, which makes the composition of the high-temperature adhesive closer to that of zirconia ceramics.

Anti-ballistic armor element, comprising a ceramic body comprising a sintered material consisting of ceramic grains with a Vickers hardness of more than 5 GPa, the total pore volume of said material being between 0.5 and 10%, said ceramic body being characterized in that the cumulative volume of pores with a diameter of between 30 and 100 micrometers represents between 0.2 and 2.5% of the volume of said material, the cumulative volume of pores with a diameter of more than 100 micrometers is less than 0.2% of the volume of said material , the remainder of said total pore volume consisting of pores whose diameter is less than 30 micrometers.

Refractory components (e.g. crown or rider arches associated with a refractory structure such as coke ovens, glass furnaces, regenerators and the like) are provided by multiple refractory members bonded to one another by a bonding agent to form an integral self-supporting structure.

A thermal protection system is provided for a vehicle substructure. The thermal protection system comprises an outer layer for protecting the vehicle substructure. The thermal protection system further comprises an inner layer for conforming to the vehicle substructure. The thermal protection system also comprises an insulation layer sandwiched between the inner and outer layers. The insulation layer includes a porous low-density ceramic insulating material having a densified portion that covers an inner surface of the outer layer to strengthen adhesion.

A substrate support for a substrate processing system includes a baseplate and a ceramic layer arranged on the baseplate. The ceramic layer includes a lower surface, an upper surface configured to support a substrate, and sidewalls around a perimeter of the ceramic layer extending from the lower surface to the upper surface, and the ceramic layer comprises a first material. A bond layer is provided between the baseplate and the ceramic layer. A protective layer is formed on the sidewalls of the ceramic layer. The protective later comprises a second material different from the first material.

A method including applying layers of multiple constituents where the constituents are capable of producing a non-equilibrium condition on the contacting surfaces of a ceramic matrix composite component and a gas turbine engine component where one outer coating includes a first constituent and the other outer coating includes a second constituent; forming a component assembly with the ceramic matrix composite component coupled to the gas turbine engine component with contact between the outer coatings; adding an energy to facilitate an equilibrium reaction between the first constituent of the first outer coating and the second constituent of the second outer coating; and as a result of adding the energy, forming a bond structure in the component assembly with a product of the equilibrium reaction where the bond structure affixes the ceramic matrix composite component to the gas turbine engine component between the first constituent and the second constituent.

Anti-ballistic armor element, comprising a ceramic body comprising a sintered material consisting of ceramic grains with a Vickers hardness of more than 5 GPa, the total pore volume of said material being between 0.5 and 10%, said ceramic body being characterized in that the cumulative volume of pores with a diameter of between 30 and 100 micrometers represents between 0.2 and 2.5% of the volume of said material, the cumulative volume of pores with a diameter of more than 100 micrometers is less than 0.2% of the volume of said material, the remainder of said total pore volume consisting of pores whose diameter is less than 30 micrometers.
