IEA/Annex II Powder Characterization Cooperative Program

Abstract

Materials characterization will play a key role in such critical issues as quality, reliability, and manufacturing cost reduction of emerging high performance ceramic materials. The identification of better analytical standards and standard procedures for obtaining the true values of powder characteristics is an important component of this overall thrust. The U.S. Department of Energy, with the Oak Ridge National Laboratory has initiated an international program to comprehensively characterize Silicon Nitride, Silicon, Silicon Carbide, and Zirconium Oxide powders in laboratories in the United States, the Federal Republic of Germany, and Sweden to expedite the accomplishment of these objectives. Keywords: Heat engines.
