Clay is a fascinating material from which to make musical instruments because it can produce a multitude of sounds. Different types of clay and various firing techniques can be employed to create musical instruments that sound quite dissimilar to each other. And the plasticity of clay, before firing, makes it possible to create a variety of unusually shaped air chambers and resonators for wind and percussion instruments. 

Traditionally, luminescent materials are prepared by mix and fire techniques small grains of reactants (generally with diameters in the pm range or smaller) are thoroughly mixed (either dry or in a suspension) and heated. The heating temperatures typically exceed 1000 °C. To facilitate the reaction and to obtain luminescent materials of sufficient crystallinity (which generally improves the efficiency of the luminescence... 

Proponents will describe special combat firing techniques, relate tales of hits at incredible distances and swear that the SMG has rendered the autopistol and light assault rifle obsolete.

Further development of standard ceramic kilns is aimed at faster firing, improved insulations and increased thermal efficiency. No principal changes in the firing techniques or in the conception of ceramic kilns are expected in the near future. 

As a conclusion, the initial fundamental tests with the experimental furnace described in Section 23.5.1, backed up by the modeling computations, have demonstrated that the fundamental picture of flameless oxidation as a well-defined flameless firing technique is basically correct. 

The catalyst used throughout this study was 12.3% w/w V205/alumina. The catalyst was prepared by a dipping and firing technique. Ammonium metavanadate... 

The work carried out so far has indicated that the Auxiliary combustion firing technique combined with conventional firing should be capable of reducing NOx on most conventional end-fired container furnaces to 500 mg/m (n) ( 8%02) without loss of production, glass quality, efficiency or damage to the furnace. Although no Industrial testing has been carried out on cross-...

To predict which powder systems are expected to benefit from the use of fast firing, it is necessary to know the controlling mechanism for the processes of densification and coarsening and, in addition, to have reliable data for the activation energies for the appropriate diffusion coefficients. In most cases, this information is unavailable or incomplete. The best way to determine the effectiveness of the fast firing technique is therefore to try it. However, some data can be found for a few systems and it is worth considering the effectiveness of fast firing in these systems. 

A non-optimised two step firing technique was utilised to co-fire green anode tapes with printed electrolytes. This resulted in flat ceramics, but with varying degrees of porosity in both electrolyte and anode support. More studies are required to obtain a consistent firing protocol, which results in both porous anode supports as well as dense electrolyte layers. Progress will hopefully be reported in future papers. 

The advantages of the direct firing technique are its simplicity in terms of layout and equipment, with correspondingly low capital expenditure, and its operational reliability, because there is no pulverized coal to be stored, nor any dust-laden exhaust gas to be dedusted. A disadvantage, however, is the high rate of primary air...
