Crystal Templating with Mutually Miscible Solvents: A Simple Path to Hierarchical Porosity

Christian Guizard, Jérôme Leloup, Sylvain Deville

Ice templating, a route where ice crystals are used to template macroporosity, has been used to process a variety of materials with one level of macropores. We demonstrate here a v…

Self-Assembly of Faceted Particles Triggered by a Moving Ice Front

Florian Bouville, Eric Maire, Sylvain Deville

The possibility to align and organize faceted particles in the bulk offers intriguing possibilities for the design and discovery of materials and architectures exhibiting novel fun…

Templated Grain Growth in Macroporous Materials

Florian Bouville, Etienne Portuguez, Yunfei Chang +5

We demonstrate a facile method to produce crystallographically textured, macroporous materials using a combination of modified ice templating and templated grain growth (TGG). The…

Strong, Tough and Stiff Bioinspired Ceramics from Brittle Constituents

Florian Bouville, Eric Maire, Sylvain Meille +3

High strength and high toughness are usually mutually exclusive in engineering materials. Improving the toughness of strong but brittle materials like ceramics thus relies on the i…

A meta-analysis of the mechanical properties of ice-templated ceramics and metals

Sylvain Deville, Sylvain Meille, Jordi Seuba

Ice templating, also known as freeze casting, is a popular shaping route for macroporous materials. Over the past 15 years, it has been widely applied to various classes of materia…

Mapping ceramics research and its evolution

Sylvain Deville, Adam J. Stevenson

We show here how a simple data mining of bibliographic records can be used to follow and help understand the evolution of a research domain, at a level that cannot be captured by r…
