Symposium 7
Advanced Structural Ceramics and CMCs for Ultra Extreme Environments
Advanced structural ceramics and ceramic matrix composites are enabling materials for applications that involve extreme environments such as those associated with nuclear power generation, turbine engines, hypersonic flight, high speed machining, etc. During their service in the demanding environment, some of the critical challenges for the ceramics and composites have to be met, e.g. thermal/chemical stability, complex shape forming, thermal shock resistance, radiation tolerance and oxidation/ablation resistance, etc. Extreme environments and challenging applications of these ceramics and composites have also necessitated new approaches in terms of processing, manufacturing and characterization. This symposium solicits abstracts related to the diverse aspects of structural ceramics and composites for extreme environments, such as powder synthesis, processing, structure-property relationships, thermal and mechanical properties, oxidation resistance, machining and joining, both from fundamental and application-oriented perspectives. It will provide a unique platform for the specialists from all over the world on ceramics and composites to share their knowledges and demands with each other.

Science and Engineering at Tsinghua University. He obtained his BS degree in materials science in 2012 from Tsinghua University, and his MS degree in materials science in 2014, his MS degree in applied mechanics in 2015, and his PhD degree in material science in 2017, all from University of Pennsylvania. He then spent five years at Massachusetts Institute of Technology as a postdoctoral researcher working on interdisciplinary materials design, processing, microstructure, and degradation mechanisms. He received Early Discovery Award, Edward C. Henry Award, Morgan Medal and Global Distinguished Doctoral Dissertation Award, and lifetime membership from the American Ceramic Society, Acta Student Award from Acta Materialia, and Sidney J. Stein Prize from University of Pennsylvania. His current research interest is on advanced ceramics for structural and energy applications.

focuses on superhard materials and structural ceramics, including the design and synthesis of new carbon and boron nitride materials, high-performance ceramic powder and ceramic bulk, etc. He has developed a series of high-performance metastable materials such as graphite-diamond hybrid carbon (Gradia), the hardest amorphous carbon (AM-III), conductive ultra-hard amorphous carbon/nanodiamond composites, and room-temperature plastic ceramic with twisted-layer structure. Prof. Zhao has published more than 150 papers in journals including Nature, Nat. Mater., Natl. Sci. Rev., Sci. Adv., Nat. Commun., Matter, PNAS, PRL, and JACS and received more than 5000 citations. Moreover, Prof. Zhao has also applied for 50 invention patents, among which 13 patents were authorized by the U.S.A., Japan, and Europe and 16 patents were authorized by China. His research results have also been highlighted and introduced in lots of journals and technology media.
