Posters-Accepted Abstracts: J Material Sci Eng

Abstract :

This workshop will be mainly focused mainly on various nanoceramic materials and its applications. This will generate a common
ground for the researchers to share ideas. The interest in the area is growing due to excellent materials with unusual materials
properties by manipulating the length scale in the nano range. This results in better performance materials with new applications
and various areas. It is well known that any new research and breakthrough in such emerging research area needs focused discussion
what potentially can enable to new ideas and also in networking by international meeting in the form of workshop. Workshop may
lead to structure-property relationship to nanoceramic materials. In the technical session various aspects of nanoceramics at the
research level on production and various other applications will be discussed together with the discussion with eminent scientists.
