1.
Co-organization of the IXth Conference of the European Ceramic Society 2005, program chair of two symposia, Structural ceramics and Bioceramics

Based on teh reputation we were able to invite world leading experts in the field of engineering and bio-ceramics, who reported on the recent and state-of the-art achievements in the fields relevant for the program. JECS journal is one of the top ranked journals in its group.

Aqueous processing of AlN powder

The important research dealing with the reactivity of AlN powder in an aqueous environment was presented. This research indicates the possibilities for the control and prevention of the AlN powder hydrolysis. Fundamental understanding of the hydrolysis reactions allowe us to develop a novel process for forming of nanostructured alumina coatings on ceramic substrates.

National (Puh) award for the year 2007 for technological achievements and their implementation into practice

Ceramic Y-TZP dental posts with a core for aesthetic restoration of endodontically treated teeth, , authors: KOSMAČ T, MARION L, DAKSKOBLER A, ZAGOŽEN I, OBLAK Č. On the basis of the knowledge gained during development of ceramic dental root posts a foundation of a "spin off" - new department was established in the Gald d.o.o. company, which started with the production of ceramic dental root posts.

Optimisation of alumina based ceramic materials

In cooperation with AET d.o.o. the critical factors for the preparation of ceramic powders were determined, and on their basis new parameters for milling and homogenization were defined. The new regime of milling and homogenization of the ceramic powders will enable the production of ceramic products in a narrower dimension tolerance range, together with improved economical efficiency and decreased effect on the environment. The contribution is important form the stand point of understanding and implementation of the shaping techniques for the production of the green ceramic bodies.
