A
A strong interest in the use of ceramics for biomedical engineering applications developed in the late 1960s. Used initially
as alternatives to metallic materials in order to increase the biocompatibility of implants, bioceramics have become a
diverse class of biomaterials, presently including three basic types: relatively bioinert ceramics; bioactive or surface reactive
bioceramics and bioresorbable ceramics.
This review will only refer to bioceramics sensus stricto, it is to say, those ceramic materials constituted for nonmetallic
inorganic compounds, crystallines and consolidated by thermal treatments of powders to high temperatures. Leaving
bioglasses, glass-ceramics and biocements apart, since, although all of them are obtained by thermal treatments to high
temperatures, the first are amorphous, the second are obtained by desvitrification of a glass and in them vitreous phase
normally prevails on the crystalline phases and the third are consolidated by means of a hydraulic or chemical reaction to
room temperature.
A review of the composition, physiochemical properties and biological behaviour of the principal types of crystalline
bioceramics is given, based on the literature data and on the own experience of the authors.
Key words: alumina, zirconia, zirconia-toughened alumina, graphite, hydroxyapatite, bioactive silicates, bioeutectic, tricalcium
phosphate
Materiales biocermicos cristalinos
A finales de los aos sesenta se despert un gran inters por el uso de los materiales cermicos para aplicaciones biomdicas.
Inicialmente utilizados como una alternativa a los materiales metlicos, con el propsito de incrementar la biocompatibilidad
de los implantes, las biocermicas se han convertido en una clase diversa de biomateriales, incluyendo actualmente tres tipos:
cermicas cuasi inertes; cermicas bioactivas o reactivas superficialmente y cermicas reabsorbibles o biodegradables.
En la presente revisin se hace referencia a las biocermicas en sentido estricto, es decir, a aquellos materiales constitutitos
por compuestos inorgnicos no metlicos, cristalinos y consolidados mediante tratamientos trmicos a altas temperaturas.
Dejando aparte los biovidrios, los vitrocermicos y los biocementos, puesto que, si bien todos ellos son obtenidos por
tratamiento trmicos a altas temperaturas, los primeros son amorfos, los segundos son obtenidos por desvitrificacin de un
vidrio, prevaleciendo normalmente la fase vtrea sobre las fases cristalinas, y los terceros son consolidados mediante una
reaccin qumica o hidrulica a temperatura ambiente.
As pues, teniendo en cuenta la abundante bibliografa sobre el tema y la experiencia propia de los autores, se presenta una
revisin de la composicin, propiedades fisicoqumicas, aplicaciones y comportamiento biolgico de los principales tipos de
biocermicas cristalinas.
Palabras clave: almina, zircona, almina-circona, grafito, hidroxiapatito, silicatos bioactivos, bioeutecticos, fosfato triclcico.
1. INTRODUCTION
Bioceramics are those engineered materials that find their
applications in the field of medicine [1]. Traditionally, the
brittleness, the low mechanical fracture toughness and the
low resistance to the impact have limited the applications
of the ceramic materials. Nevertheless, a strong interest in
the use of ceramics for biomedical engineering applications
were developed at the end of the years sixty. New ceramics,
with very improved properties, contributed to increase the
possibilities of using ceramics in biomedicine and their use
has extended considerably since then [2,3].
The great chemical inertia of the ceramics, their high
compression strength and their aesthetic appearance, made
that these materials began to be used in dentistry, mainly
in dental crowns. Later their use extended to orthopaedic
applications [4-6].

2. BIOINERT CERAMICS
Relatively Bioinert ceramics undergo little or no chemical
changes when they are exposed to physiological environments.
They maintain their physical and mechanical properties while
in the host. The answer of the host to these bioceramics is
the formation of a very fine fibrous tissue capsule of varying
thickness, several micrometers or less, that surround implant
materials. The fixation of implants in the body is made through
a strong mechanical interlocking, by tissue ingrowth into
undulating surfaces [11]. When high strength is required, the
bond is made by perforations in the implants using threads,
cements, etc. When so high strength are not required can be
used porous inert bioceramics, with sizes of pore between 100
and 150 m, which guarantee the growth of the tissue towards
within implants assuring its fixation [12-14].
Typical examples of these bioinert ceramics are: Alumina
(-Al2O3); Zirconia (ZrO2), Alumina-Zirconia and Pyrolytic
Carbon.
2.1. Alumina
Alumina of high density and purity (99.5 % in weight of
-Al2O3), with an average grain size < 4 m is probably, the
bioinert ceramic material of greater biological interest. This
material was developed, as alternative to used metallic alloys
in load-bearing hip prosthesis and in dental implants, to
display an excellent biocompatibility, good resistance to the
corrosion, to form a very fine fibrous capsule, to have a low
coefficient of friction and good mechanical properties as much
high strength as wear resistance [15-17].
According to the International Standards Organization
(ISO), the purity of the alumina that is used in biomedical
applications has to be over 99.5 %, being the rest of the
impurities (SiO2, Na2O, K2O, CaO, etc.) below 0.1 % in weight,
in order to avoid a large grain increase during sintering.
An increase of average grain size to 7 m can decrease
mechanical properties by about 20 %. It is normal the addition
of approximately 0.5 wt. % of MgO that acts as inhibitor of

This paper introduces a comparative analysis of Piezoelectric (PZ) and Magnetostrictive (MS) actuators as components
in smart structures. There is an increasing interest in functional structures which are able to adapt to external or internal
perturbations, i.e. changes in loading conditions or ageing. Actuator technologies must perform concomitantly as sensors
and actuators to be applicable in smart structures. In this paper we will comparatively analyze the possibility of using PZ
and MS actuators in smart structures and in so doing their capability to act concomitantly as sensors and of modifying their
material characteristics. We will also focus on the analysis of how them can be integrated in structures and on the analysis
of the most appropriate structures for each actuator. The operational performance of PZ (Stacks) and MS actuators will be
compared and eventually some conclusions will be drawn.
Keywords: Piezoelectric actuators, Magnetostrictive actuators, smart structures.

1. INTRODUCTION
There is a vast set of transducing materials on which
emerging actuator technologies (EATs) are being based.
Emerging actuators are characterized by exploiting new (or
at least newly developed) transducing phenomena. This is
the case of piezoelectricity, electrostriction, magnetostriction,
electro- and magneto-rheology as well as thermal or
magnetically triggered Shape Memory transformations, see
(1) for a comprehensive discussion.
Most of these transducing phenomena are reversible in that
they allow the conversion both from mechanical to electrical
energy and from electrical to mechanical energy. As such,
materials exhibiting such transducing phenomena can be
exploited both as sensors and as actuators. In other instances,
they can perform concomitantly in both directions.
Amongst the different EATs, the best established
technologies are Piezoelectric (PZ) actuators and
Magnetostrictive (MS) actuators. Both technologies allow two
directional transduction, and various studies have addressed
the concomitant implementation of MS and PZ technologies
as sensors and actuators, (2).
Electroceramics have been proposed as the basis for
developing acceleration sensors, (3), in the development of
solid state gyroscopes or for pressure sensors in the field of
biomechanics, (4). In all these instances, the direct piezoelectric
effect is exploited and the deformation of the electroceramic is
somehow related to the target physical variable to be sensed.

which, for the direction of imanation, reduces to:
[7]
Notice that equation [6] represents a quadratic dependence
of strain on magnetic field strength. Once the magnetostrictive
coefficients are defined for a particular material, equation [6]
indicates that the magnetostrictive material will contract or
expand when either positive or negative magnetic fields are
applied.
Consequently, equation [7] describes a way of converting
unidirectional displacements in a magnetostrictive domain
into two-directional displacements by means of a bias magnetic
field strength, H0, a technique widely adopted in the design of
magnetostrictive actuators.
The process is schematically depicted in figure 2. Due
to the quadratic relationship between strain and magnetic
field, the driving frequency presents non-linearity and the
rate of the strain is twice the rate of the applied magnetic
field (black lines in figure 2). When a bias DC magnetic field,
H0, is applied, the strain becomes quasi-linear around the
bias magnetic field and the non-linearity in the frequency is
eliminated (grey, dashed lines in figure 2).
[8]
In the case of PZ actuators, because of the active nature of
the material, there is the possibility of programmable stiffness.
The force-deformation ratio for piezoelectric actuators is highly
dependent on the electrical boundary conditions applied to
the actuator electrodes.
In this context, there are three possible situations depending
on the electrical boundary conditions:
1. Short circuited or voltage controlled actuators. In this
situation, a ``low stiffness is achieved. Under deformation,
the charge generated by the piezoelectric effect is free to flow
and equilibrate.
2. Open circuit or charge/current controlled actuators.
In this situation, the charge is blocked at the electrodes of
the actuator when a force is applied. Blocking of the charge
(either because the circuit is open or because the control fixes
its value) results in an electric field that will oppose the force.
The outcome of this situation is greater stiffness (twice as
much as in case 1).
3. Impedance controlled actuators. In this case the control
loop applied to the piezoelectric actuator sets the reference
mechanical impedance for the piezoelectric actuator, i.e. the
reference charge/current is increased as a result of changes
in actuators strain. At the upper limit, when the reference
impedance is very high, the control strategy is equivalent to
a position control of the piezoelectric motor, and the apparent
stiffness of the actuator is virtually infinite.

Equation [16] describes the sensor model for the
magnetostrictive transducer. It formulates the relationship
between the resulting magnetic induction in the
magnetostrictive material, B, and the applied force, T, and
displacement, S. Faradays law can be used to determine the
magnetic induction in the material. This states that the voltage
induced in a coil wrapped around the magnetostrictive
material is:
[17]
[18]
[22]
If the solenoid inductance is used in the second branch
of the Bridge Circuit, the voltage across the bridge ought to
be proportional to the actuators velocity. However, this is
not the case, and the reason is that the blocked impedance is
non-linearly dependent on the current drawn. Consequently,
concomitant sensing and actuation with MS actuators is
difficult to achieve, although some authors, (2), have reported
positive results in narrow frequency bands around the
actuators mechanical resonance.
[20]
5. PZ AND MS ACTUATORS IN SMART STRUCTURES
The Laplace transform of equation [20] can now be
developed. In addition, if we take into account low frequency
excitation of the transducer, we can assume that the materials

where l is the actuator change in length, Q is the change in
charge and ap is the actuators acceleration.
According to the above equations, if control is achieved
by feeding the current drawn directly back in a negative
control loop, the result is equivalent to a direct velocity
feedback approach. Direct velocity feedback, in a collocated
sensor/actuator pair (the condition of collocated sensors

FROM CHEMICAL ENGINEERING TO CERAMIC TECHNOLOGY: A REVIEW OF RESEARCH AT THE INSTITUTO DE TECNOLOGA CERMICA
A. BARBA
bodies are plastic, ITC has also studied the pressing of nonplastic materials, which require additives to form highly
compact products, free of defects. Consequently, studies have
been carried out into the influence of different plasticizers(142)
on spray-dried powder characteristics, the development of the
pressing cycle, the presence of defects in green bodies and the
properties of sintered bodies.
A fast and simple way of establishing the porosity of
the ceramic compact is by determining its bulk density. ITC
introduced the bulk density test in industrial ceramic tile
processing as a control parameter, and has investigated and
designed different methods for the industrial bulk density
determination(143-146). Research has followed into the
relationship between bulk density and mechanical strength,
air permeability and liquid sorptivity of green bodies. In this
field, the research results can be classified in two large groups.
First, it was established that the mechanical strength(147-148)
of green bodies needed to be sufficiently high to avoid product
deterioration or breakage during transport in the course of the
following unit operations or process stages; this meant strict
control of green tile compaction(149-153), ensuring there were
no bulk density or moisture gradients in the piece when it left
the press(154-155). Secondly, high air permeability(156-157)
was found to facilitate the subsequent drying operation, while
good liquid sorptivity(158-163) was indispensable for proper
glazing of the green bodies.
3.3 Drying
The drying of green ceramic bodies has been another ITC
field of research.
Drying process kinetics has been studied and
mathematically modelled(164-166). The drying rate has been
related to drying air characteristics(167-168) (temperature,
humidity, speed and direction relative to the body) and to
the characteristics of the green body(169) (thickness, moisture
content and microstructure, using parameters such as porosity,
permeability, tortuosity and pore size distribution).
ITC has also studied the industrial drying operation. An
assembly has been developed for measuring temperature
profiles inside industrial dryers(170). This has led to improved
industrial dryer design(171-172), while industrial drying has
been optimised by reducing running times and enhancing the
technical characteristics of the dried bodies(173). Finally, ITC
has also studied the feasibility of using tunnel dryers at the
entrance of ceramic roller kilns to reduce energy consumption
in sintering, and avoid crack formation in the bodies owing to
rapid drying inside the kiln(174-175).
3.4 Glazing and decorating
ITC research in glazing has focused on engobe and
glaze suspension rheology. The relation of suspension
rheology to applied layer properties(176) and to suspension
properties (composition, particle size distribution, stability,
temperature) has also been extensively studied, in order to
adapt glaze suspension rheology to different new glazing
techniques(177).
Research into the decoration of ceramic bodies has
addressed screen printing ink rheology and the characterisation
of printing screens, in order to suppress defects involving
small colour differences in the finished product, known as
shades(178-182).
160
3.5 Sintering
As with other ITC research work, research in sintering has
focused primarily on ceramic tile. Research into the thermal
expansion of glasses and bodies, into body temperature
distribution during sintering(183) and into the simulation of
body deformations during sintering(184-186) have yielded
the knowledge required to co-sinter the glaze and ceramic
body, controlling the curvatures and stresses caused by
glass-ceramic body interactions(187-193) and enhancing
finished product quality. The influence of maximum
sintering temperature and dwell time on several sintered
body properties (microstructure(194-196), bulk density, linear
shrinkage, water absorption, dimension stability(197) and
thermal expansion(198)) have also been studied. A further
line of research has focused on determining the causes of
black core formation during sintering and on eliminating
black coring by oxidation. In this regard, oxidation process
kinetics has been modelled, relating the process rate to body
microstructure (porosity, tortuosity and pore size distribution),
organic matter content, thickness of the body, etc.(199-206).
The knowledge gained in tile sintering has enabled optimising
the operating conditions of the roller kiln, which appeared in
the 1980s. This optimisation has also required research into the
influence of several parameters(207-210) (pressure curve(211),
combustion air flow rate(212), measurement of transverse
temperature gradients(213-214), thermal energy transmission
mechanisms(215), etc.) on roller kiln performance. The resulting
optimisation has allowed reducing thermal and electric energy
consumption during sintering(216) and throughout the entire
process(217-220).
In addition to ceramic tile sintering(221-222), ITC has also
undertaken research into the sintering of technical ceramics,
such as ferrites(223).
Finally, studies have been conducted on the resistance
of kiln rollers to thermal shock(224) and to gas and liquid
contamination, which can alter roller composition and
microstructure(225).
3.6 Finishing
Finishing can involve various sintered body treatments:
cutting, grinding and polishing, etc.
Traditional ceramic bodies generally need no finishing
treatment: only a certain type of porcelain tile is polished(226227). Thus, ITC has examined the influence of certain polishing
variables (e.g. rotating speed and grit size) on porcelain tile
properties(228-231) (roughness, gloss, microhardness and
apparent porosity). For polishing operation control, ITC has
also developed a method using a pin-on-disk tribometer(232).
4. CHEMICAL REACTION ENGINEERING
Chemical reaction engineering is a classic chemical
engineering subject, which deals with chemical transformations.
ITC research in this area has essentially focused on three
main fields: reactions in glasses, inorganic ceramic pigment
synthesis and ceramic powder synthesis.
Various reactions occurring in glasses have been studied.
Thus, the devitrification mechanism and kinetics of crystalline
phase formation (e.g. diopside(233) and gahnite(234)) from
different oxide glasses have been determined(235). Further
lines of research in this field have addressed the optimum
temperature range for maturing different glasses(236), the

In this paper we present a comparative analysis of the magnetic interactions and reversal mechanisms of two different
systems: NdFeB-type alloys with grain sizes in the single domain range and Fe-SiO2 nanocomposites with Fe concentrations
above and below the percolation threshold. We evidence that the use of the coercivity as the main parameter to analyse
them might be misleading due to the convolution of both reversible and irreversible magnetization variations. We show that
the switching field and thermally assisted demagnetization allow a better understanding of these mechanisms since they
involve just irreversible magnetization changes. Specifically, the experimental analysis of the coercivity adquisition process
for the NdFeB-type system suggests that the magnetization reversal is nucleated at the spin misalignments present due to
intergranular exchange interactions. On the other hand, the study of the magnetic viscosity and of the isothermal remanent
magnetization (IRM) and direct field demagnetization (DCD) remanence curves indicates that the dipolar interactions are
responsible for the propagation of the switching started at individual particles.
Keywords: magnetization reversal, coercivity, switching field distribution, magnetic interactions, magnetic viscosity.
Mecanismos de inversin de la magnetizacin e interacciones en sistemas magnticos: campo coercitivo versus campo
de conmutacin y desimanacin trmicamente asistida
En este artculo presentamos un anlisis comparativo de la influencia de la microestructura a travs de las interacciones
magnticas en los mecanismos de inversin de la magnetizacin en dos sistemas diferentes: aleaciones tipo NdFeB con tamaos
de grano en el rango de monodominio y nanocompuestos de Fe-SiO2 con concentraciones de Fe tanto por encima como por
debajo del umbral de percolacin. Ponemos de manifiesto que el uso del campo coercitivo como parmetro de anlisis puede
llevar a equvocos debido a la coexistencia de variaciones reversibles e irreversibles de la magnetizacin. Tambin mostramos
que el campo de conmutacin y la desimanacin trmicamente asistida permiten una mejor comprensin de dichos
mecanismos ya que reflejan exclusivamente cambios irreversibles de imanacin. Concretamente, el anlisis experimental del
proceso de adquisicin de coercitividad de los sistemas tipo NdFeB sugiere que la inversin de la magnetizacin se nuclea
en los desalineamientos de los espines debidos a las interacciones de canje intergranular en las fronteras de grano. Por otra
parte, el estudio de la viscosidad magntica y de las curvas de remanencia isoterma (IRM) y de remanencia de desimacin
DC (DCD) de los nanocompuestos de Fe-SiO2 indica que las interacciones dipolares son responsables en este sistema de la
propagacin de la conmutacin, que se genera en partculas individualmente consideradas.
Palabras clave: inversin de la magnetizacin, coercitividad, distribucin de campos de conmutacin, interacciones magnticas, viscosidad
magntica.
1. INTRODUCTION
The hysteresis (extrinsic) properties of magnetic materials
are strongly dependent on their particular microstructures.
The improvement and versatility of preparation techniques
in the last decades have allowed the production of many
types of high quality magnetic materials, ranging from
metallic systems to different oxides, usually with very well
controlled morphologycal and structural features, even down
to a nanoscopic scale. Among these techniques are ultrarrapid
quenching, sputtering, molecular beam epitaxy, pulsed laser
deposition, etc. New phenomenology has emerged from
these materials, due a combination of factors such as reduced
dimensionality (size and surface effects) and interphase
coupling: oscillatory exchange coupling in multilayers, spindependent scattering effects in multilayers and granular

is the field required to -starting from the demagnetized statereach a remanence Mr1/2=Mr max/2, that is to make coercive
50% of the grains involved in the first step. This coercivity
acquisiton process takes place in a more or less homogeneous
environment, with the average magnetization pointing in the
positive direction, except for those grains that were already
coercive (those involved in the second magnetization step,
whose average magnetization is still null).
(ii) inhomogenous environment
Starting fom Mr1/2, i.e. with 50% of the initially soft grains
already coercive, we apply negative fields, as shown in Fig. 7.
After applying a field -H1/2 and removing the field a remanence
equal to Mr1/2/2 is obtained, which indicates that we have
reversed 50% of the yet soft grains (i.e. 25% of the initially soft
grains). If the applied field, starting again from Mr1/2, is Hm the
remanence after removing the field is now null. Hm is the field
required to make coercive all the remaining soft grains (50% of
the initially soft grains). The difference is that in this process
we have been dealing with low magnetization, about zero, this
reflecting an inhomogeneous environment, with many grains
pointing in either positive and negative direction.

4. CONCLUSSIONS
We have analysed in this paper the role of interactions
on the switching mecanisms of two types of magnets
ruled, respectively, by dipolar and integranular-exchange
interactions. In both cases a strategy was used based on
the comparison of the evolution of the magnetization and
demagnetization processes with a variable parameter, Fe
concentration and MS for the Fe-SiO2 composites and the
NdFeB-type magnets, respectively. We have also shown that,
from the point of view of the switching mechanisms the SFDs,
obtained from remanence measurements, are clearly more
significant than coercivity.
In the particular case of the Fe-SiO2 composites, our
results clearly suggest that closed flux structures present in
the demagnetized state are responsible for the high switching
fields required to magnetize the samples. The reversal in these
samples is triggered by individual particles and propagated
by dipolar interactions, irrespectively of the Fe concentration
being either above or below the percolation threshold. In
the case of the NdFeB-tpe magnets, we have shown that
intergranular exchange accounts for most of the features
observed in the high susceptibility regions of demagnetized
samples as well as for the higher fields required to reverse
previously saturated samples.

In the present review, the main phenomenology and problematic related some of the most interesting magnetoelectric
systems (materials having in the same phase magnetic and ferroelectric order and interaction between them, giving rise to
the magnetoelectric effect) is presented. Some single-phase systems as manganites, BiFeO3 and relaxor magnetoelectrics
mainly interesting from a fundamental point of view, as well as diphasic composites with a high potentiality in applications
are discussed. The coupling between ferroelectric and magnetic activity in magnetoelectric multiferroics opens the possibility
of controlling magnetic properties through electric fields and vice versa, giving to these materials a large potentiality for
applications in spintronics, multiple state memory elements or novel memory devices which might use electric and/or
magnetic fields for read/write operations.

1. INTRODUCTION
Multifunctional or smart materials combining several
properties in the same structure in order to produce new or
enhanced phenomena have stimulated much scientific and
technological interest within the scientific community in the last
years. One of the most interesting categories of multifunctional
systems is the magnetoelectrics, i.e. materials showing
magnetoelectric effects. Having simultaneous magnetic
and ferroelectric activity, possible attractive functionalities
caused by the interactions between electric polarization and
spontaneous magnetization can be envisaged. The primary
magnetoelectric (ME) effect is defined by the appearance
of an electric polarization under a magnetic field P(H): ME
output or a magnetization at the application of an electric
field M(E): EM output. The ME of second order (or secondary
ME) consists on variation of the permittivity under magnetic
field (H) or the magnetic permeability at the application of an
electric field (E). Materials exhibiting ME properties can be
single-phase and composites (di- or poliphasic systems).
A ferroic system has an order parameter switchable by
an adequate driving force or field (phenomena normally

by the data of thicker films. The values computed for the total
energy and polarization by first-principle calculations using
local-spin density approximation of Ps=63.2 C/cm2 for the
tetragonal distorted state, by comparison with Ps=6.6 C/cm2
characteristic to the rhombohedral phase were also in favour
of this interpretation (19.-).
On the contrary, Eerenstein et al. recently reported much
lower values for magnetization and polarization for similar
films. (47.-). They concluded that ferroelectric polarization
is not enhanced by strain in epitaxial BiFeO3 thin films.
In addition, the authors explained the large value of
magnetization reported in (19.-) as coming from the possible
large percentage of Fe2+ in the film volume. But a high density
of Fe2+ causing a high number of oxygen vacancies required
for the neutrality condition would result in low electrical
resistivity, unlike reported by Wang et al. (19.-), and thus
strongly limiting the ME applications of such films. The
authors concluded that an increased thickness-dependent
magnetization found in (19.-) is not an intrinsic property of
fully oxygenated and coherently strained epitaxial BiFeO3 thin
films characterised by a high electrical resistivity. Rather, high
magnetizations are possible achieved only in de-oxygenated
films, but loosing the ferroelectric performance due to a
consequent increasing conductivity (47.-). Although few other
explanations were proposed, the mechanism responsible for
very different polarization and magnetization characteristics
found in different epitaxial BiFeO3 films is still unclear, being a
hot topic under debate between various groups (19,47-49.-).

4. CONCLUSIONS
The field of ME materials is a very active topic, particularly
in the last 5 years, when extensive research has been conducted
on various types of structures. The dielectric polarization of a
material under a magnetic field or an induced-magnetization
under an electric field (ME effect) requires the simultaneous
presence of long-range ordering of magnetic moments and
electric dipoles. The ME effect is particularly low in bulk
single-phase materials, thus limiting their applicability in
practical devices. This is probably due to the impossibility
of controlling in the whole bulk volume the composition,
stoichiometry and defect structure. A better control of these
characteristics seems to be obtained in PLD films, particularly
in the case of BiFeO3 system, in which high values of
the spontaneous polarization by comparison with the bulk
materials have been reported. The origin of the very scattered
(sometimes author-dependent) values of the ferroelectric
characteristics in bulk and epitaxial or polycrystalline films
produced by various prestigious groups in the last years is still
unclear, although few different (and some of them new and
innovative) mechanisms, supported by results of first principle
calculations, were proposed. From the fundamental point of
view, the single-phase materials, particularly the controversial
BiFeO3 system are still very interesting for further studies and
far to be understood. On the practical point of view, it seems
that a good alternative are the ME composites exploiting the
product property of the materials and giving rise to giant
values of the ME coefficient.

The quaternary system CaO-SiO2-Al2O3-Fe2O3 has been taken into account to design five compositions of belite Portland
clinkers with belite (Ca2SiO4) contents ranging from 60 to 65 wt%, located in its primary phase field of crystallization. The
synthesis of these belite clinkers has been studied by high temperature microscopy, dilatometry, differential thermal analysis
and thermogravimetric analysis. As a result, the optimum clinkerization temperature has been established at 1360 5C. The
quantitative phase analyses of the clinkers were carried out by X-ray powder diffraction with the Rietveld methodology. The
mineralogical composition depends on the initial dosages, on the highest temperature achieved and on the time of residence
at this temperature. The reaction was completed at 1365C during 15 min (free CaO <0.5 wt%), in those conditions the -belite
form is stabilized and the harmful transformation is avoided.

1. INTRODUCTION
The production of one ton of standard Portland cement
releases into the atmosphere 0.54 ton of CO2 resulting from
the decomposition of calcite. In addition, the process uses vast
amounts of energy, particularly for clinkering and milling.
Thus, to obtain a ton of cement requires to use 60130 kg
of fuel and an average 110 Kwh of power, which result in
the release of CO2 resulting from oxidation of the fuel in the
furnace and from the use of fossil fuels to obtain electrical
power. The production of Portland cement using coal as fuel
releases ~ 0.97 ton of CO2 per ton of clinker. The overall CO2
emissions of the cement industry are ~ 6% of all anthropogenic
carbon dioxide and account for 4% of the global warming
of the planet (1). Finding effective ways of reducing such
emissions should therefore be a strong research priority. The
production of belite Portland cements is one of such solution
as it releases decreased amounts of CO2.
Standard Portland clinker contains four major crystalline
components, namely: alite (Ca3SiO5), belite (Ca2SiO4), ferrite

-C2S, C3S, C4AF and C3A. Free CaO was never present in
amounts greater than 0.3 wt%; consequently, the degree of
clinkerization under these conditions was quite adequate.
Four clinkers contained a small amount of H-C2S (see Table
III). Heating for only 15 min at 1365 C, followed by quenching
in air, ensured the absence of the -C2S -C2S transformation
in all cases. This polymorphic transformation during cooling
must be avoided since form is hydraulically inactive.
As an example, Fig. 6 shows a selected portion of the
Rietveld plots for the clinkers B65_1 and B65_1_b. The peaks
mainly due to a given phase are labelled. The lower curve, in
each pattern, represents the difference between the theoretical
and experimental data; the flatter it is, the higher is the quality
of the analysis.
The mineralogical composition obtained (Table III) is
very similar to the theoretical composition calculated from
the solid state compatibilities (Table I). The proportion of C3S
always exceeded 10 wt%, which is highly desirable for the
above-described reasons. However, it also highly desirable
to stabilize an increased amount of the -C2S in order to
activate the cements and to obtain a higher strength at early
stages during the curing process. Studies on these subjects are
currently under way.
Additionally, an interesting result which brings information
about the location of the invariant point of the C2SC3SC3A
C4AF system has to be pointed out. Thus, the proportion of the
ferrite phase, C4AF, was always below its theoretical value and
its diffraction peaks were very broad. To clarify this, the full
width at the half maximum (FWHM) of the 2 ~ 12 peak for
C4AF in clinker B60_1 was measured, being 0.24. This value
suggests that the C4AF phase crystallizes during cooling,
consequently the auxiliary line connecting the CaO vertex
with the invariant point (Figs 2 and 3) should lie above all the
selected compositions rather than as tentatively shown in Figs
2 and 3. In order to fork the location of the invariant point,
a new composition in the 60 wt% C2S plane was prepared,
namely B60_p, +, (see Fig. 3a and Table I). This raw mixture
was subjected to the thermal treatment for the b series and the
FWHM for the same C4AF diffraction peak was measured and
found to be 0.09. This lower value indicates that the C4AF
diffraction domains in this clinker are larger than in clinker
B60_1 (i.e. that it had enough time to crystallize and grow). In
addition, in clinker B60_p it was the C3A phase that showed
the broadest peaks. Consequently, the auxiliary dotted line
should lie in between those for B60_1 and B60_p.
The influence of the clinkering time on the growth of belite
crystals was examined by heating the previous compositions
at the same temperature but a longer time (2 h). Obviously,
the belite crystals in the new clinkers should be larger. This
is being currently studied by electron microscopy. However,
the results so far confirm that quenching in air fails to
completely prevent the -C2S -C2S transformation in this
190
samples (see Fig. 6, bottom). The QPA for these clinkers are
shown in Table IV. As can be seen, there was no trace of the
most reactive phase of belite (H-C2S), however, there was
an appreciable amount of the non-hydraulic form (-C2S). On
the other hand, a longer period of heating at 1365 C yields to
higher proportions of alite in these compositions (Table IV).
Consequently, belite Portland clinkers should be clinkered for
a short time at 1365 C in order to avoid substantial growth of
belite crystals which prevent the harmful transformation of
during cooling.
4. CONCLUSIONS
The projection of the eutectic surface bounding the primary
field of crystallization of C2S in the C2SC3SC3AC4AF system
allowed locating within such a volume two series of belite
clinkers with 60 and 65 wt% C2S, respectively, and variable
proportions of C3S, C3A and C4AF.
HTM, DTA, TG and dilatometric studies allowed
establishing 1365 5 C as the optimum clinkerization
temperature. Thermal treatment of the raw mixtures at such
temperature for 15 min allowed to obtain clinkers with -C2S
containing a small amount of form and to avoid the
harmful transformation . However, such transformation
could not be avoided with increasing time of treatment.
The Rietveld method to obtain QPA was extended to belite
Portland clinkers.

Toledo is situated near to Madrid (75 km), the capital
of Spain, and is full of many charming narrow, winding
streets, which are almost like a labyrinth. The diverse architectural styles that traverse the centuries from Gothic to
Baroque have benefited from the citys ties to the Christians,
Moors and Jews. Toledo is very accessible on foot. June is a
sunny month with very warm temperatures.

Mediciones de resistencia, de
I-V pulsada y de conductancia
diferencial.
El modelo 2182A cuenta con un poderoso conjunto
de nuevas capacidades para que los investigadores las
utilicen con las nuevas fuentes de corriente CC modelo
6220 y de corriente CA/CC modelo 6221. Ahora los
usuarios podrn realizar mediciones de resistencia, de
I-V pulsada y de conductancia diferencial de manera
ms rpida y exacta que antes, en muchos casos sin
necesidad de un amplificador lock-in o un puente de
resistencia CA. Esta combinacin tambin es til en
muchas aplicaciones nanotecnolgicas por su capacidad
para medir resistencia mientras disipa una cantidad
muy pequea de potencia en el dispositivo bajo test
(DUT).
Caractersticas y ventajas principales. El modelo 2182A
puede disminuir la desviacin DC y el ruido propios
de mediciones de bajo voltaje con altas velocidades,
mayores a las que se poda lograr con nanovoltmetros
anteriores o DMMs de alta sensibilidad. El instrumento
es capaz de realizar mediciones p-p de 15nV a tiempos
de respuesta de 1 segundo, y mediciones p-p de 40-50nV
a tiempos de 60 milisegundos.
La unidad incluye un modo delta incorporado
para coordinar mediciones con una fuente de corriente
inversa (operacin con un solo botn cuando se utiliza
con modelos 6220/6221 de Keithley) de hasta 24Hz
con ruido de 3nVrms/raz-Hz, lo cual crea un sistema
optimizado para mediciones de precisin de materiales
o dispositivos de baja resistencia. La nueva operacin
de modo delta alterna prcticamente tres veces ms
rpido que su modelo anterior, reduciendo el ruido de
medicin en casi un factor de dos. Adems, el nuevo
modo delta incorpora un nuevo mtodo de cancelacin
que disminuye los efectos provocados por voltajes
termoelctricos cambiantes, por un factor de diez en
comparacin con su antecesor.
Cuando se sincroniza con la frecuencia de lnea, el
modelo 2182A proporciona rechazo al ruido de 110dB en
la frecuencia y disminuye el efecto de corrientes AC en
modo comn. La unidad ofrece dos canales para medir
voltaje o temperatura; o el segundo canal se puede
utilizar para leer la razn de una resistencia desconocida
directamente a un resistor de referencia. Incluye clculos
de termocupla para tipos J, K, N, T, E, R, S y B.

Organiza:
Los modelos 622X y 2182A pueden llevar a cabo mediciones de conductancia diferencial, cada vez ms comunes para caracterizar materiales de semiconductores y
nanotecnologa, a una velocidad diez veces mayor y con
un ruido menor a las soluciones existentes, incluyendo
amplificadores lock-in y puentes de resistencia AC.
Cuando se combina con el modelo 6221, el modelo
puede soportar mediciones de resistencia e I-V pulsadas
con pulsos tan cortos como 50 microsegundos, incluso
a bajas corrientes. Pulsos cortos se traducen en menor
potencia en el DUT, lo cual es de especial importancia
en dispositivos muy pequeos en los que una cantidad
muy pequea de potencia sera suficiente para destruirlos o para producir una lectura no vlida. Para eliminar
offsets DC y ruido en la frecuencia de lnea en estas
mediciones de pulsos de alta sensibilidad, el modo pulsado de los modelos 6221/2182A utiliza tanto la lnea de
sincronizacin como las tcnicas de modo delta.
Con ms de 50 aos de experiencia en mediciones, Keithley Instruments (www.keithley.com) se ha
convertido en lder mundial en avanzados sistemas e
instrumentos de tests elctricos de DC a RF (radiofrecuencia), adaptados a las necesidades especializadas
