| Course description |
| Reactions used in various ceramic materials are basically classified into solid-state reactions, formation of solids from gas phase, solutions and melts, and several examples are presented. Soft chemical approaches using solutions are also highlighted, especially template synthesis as basic preparation methods of nanoporous materials. Furthermore, characterization of ceramics are outlined, and crystal structure analysis based on powder X-ray diffraction are especially highlighted. |
| Expected Learning |
| Learners who successfully complete this course will be able to basically grasp the contents of original papers in the field related to ceramic/inorganic solid state materials by understanding preparation strategies and characterization methodologies of these materials. |
| Course schedule |
|
Week 1: Course guidance Week 2: Solid state reactions between solid compounds I: Fundamentals on ceramic method such as nucleation, sintering, solid state reaction, and phase transition. Week 3: Solid state reactions between solid compounds II: Other ceramic methods such as carbothermal reduction, combustion synthesis, and high pressure synthesis as well as forming processes of ceramic materials. Week 4: Solid-gas/liquid reactions: Reactions between solids and gas/liquid phase such as ion exchange and intercalation and related layered host materials. Week 5: Formation of solids from solutions: Methods related to solution phases such as precipitation, sol-gel process, and solvothermal process as well as their mechanisms and applications. Week 6: Formation of solids from melts or gas phase: Preparation of ceramics related to melts such as glass formation and Czochralski process as well as preparation related to gas phase such as CVD and aerosol process. Week 7: Preparation of ceramics from inorganic polymers: Inorganic polymers such as silicones and polysilanes as wall as ceramic preparation from the preceramic polymers. Week 8: Template synthesis I: Zeolites and related molecular sieves as representative nanoporous ceramics; basic strategies for their preparation. Week 9: Template synthesis II: Extension of the concept of zeolite synthesis to ordered mesoporous and macroporous materials. Week 10: Characterization of ceramics I: Main characterization methods for compositional and morphological analyses. Week 11: Characterization of ceramics II: Main characterization methods for structural and surface analyses as well as a few physical properties. Week 12: Cryatal structure analysis I: Fundamentals of crystal structure and single crystal and powder diffraction methods. Week 13: Cryatal structure analysis II: Crystal structure solutions on single crystal and powder diffraction methods, especially ab initio structure solution and Rietveld refinement using powder diffraction data. Week 14: Presentation I Week 15: Presentation II |
