Background

Areas of Concentration

I am interested in ceramic processing with a special emphasis on powder and surface characterization and modification. Most of my research is funded directly by industry. Special research areas include coated powders, microemulsion synthesis techniques and microwave sintering.

Current Research

Synthesis of Coated Powders for Structural and High-temperature Applications, DuPont - CACT
Adsorption of Polymers in Mixed Oxide Suspensions and Prediction of Suspension Stability, Cooper Power Ind.
Microwave Sintering of Alumina and Zirconia, NYSERDA
Characterization of Magnetic Properties in Granular Materials, Xerox
Rapid Prototyping, Using a Gelation Process, Matrix
