Description:
Geologically-inspired strong bulk ceramics made with water at room temperature Nature Communications, Published online: 6 March 2017; doi:10.1038/ncomms14655 Milder conditions for processing ceramics is of interest for a range of uses. Here authors report room temperature sintering of nanoparticulate powders using a solution-assisted route, yielding parts with centimetre-sized bulk parts with specific strength comparable to and possibly surpassing that of traditional structural materials like concrete.
