PREFACE
Three international symposia “Innovative Processing and Synthesis of Ceramics, Glasses and
Composites”, “Ceramic Matrix Composites”, and “Microwave Processing of Ceramics” were held during
Materials Science & Technology 2009 Conference & Exhibition (MS&T’09), Pittsburgh, PA, October 2529, 2009. These symposia provided an international forum for scientists, engineers, and technologists to
discuss and exchange state-of-the-art ideas, information, and technology on advanced methods and
approaches for processing, synthesis and characterization of ceramics, glasses, and composites. A total of
83 papers, including 20 invited talks, were presented in the form of oral and poster presentations. Authors
from 19 countries (Austria, Belarus, Brazil, Bulgaria, Canada, China, Egypt, France, Germany, India, Iran,
Italy, Japan, Russia, South Korea, Taiwan, Turkey, U.K., and the United States) participated. The speakers
represented universities, industries, and government research laboratories.
Twenty eight papers on various aspects of synthesis, processing and properties of ceramics, glasses, and
composites that were discussed at the symposia are included in this proceeding volume. Each manuscript
was peer-reviewed using The American Ceramic Society review process.
The editors wish to extend their gratitude and appreciation to all the authors for their cooperation and
contributions, to all the participants and session chairs for their time and effort, and to all the reviewers for
their useful comments and suggestions. Financial support from The American Ceramic Society (ACerS) is
gratefully acknowledged. Thanks are due to the staff of the meetings and publications departments of
ACerS for their invaluable assistance. Special thanks go to Greg Geiger for his assistance and cooperation
throughout the production process of this volume.
It is our earnest hope that this volume will serve as a valuable reference for the researchers as well as the
technologists interested in innovative approaches for synthesis and processing of ceramics and composites
as well as their properties.
