Advanced high-temperature materials are key players in the emerging new technologies which are pushing forward the structural-aerospace, propulsion-system, defense, nuclear, thermal and chemical industries. Accelerating efforts have been directed towards increasing the operating-temperature limits of existing material systems and developing new material compositions such as advanced ceramics, UHTCs, intermetallics and CMCs. Understanding and controlling the behavior of the microstructures and properties of such materials have become key elements in these research activities. Since processing m

This book presents contributions covering the more recent applications of Sol-Gel science. Ceramics and films produced from gels were among the first applications developed by early sol-gel researchers. The possibility of tailoring the structure, and controlling particle growth, has permitted ever more advanced materials to be obtained. Several other potential applications were foreseen fifteen to twenty year ago, but their realization became possible only after extensive research on precursors had enabled progress towards the preparation of new pre-forms. Currently, the rheological properties
