Book Description
Chelsey Minnis's formal invention and wild personae represent a progressive yet individualized position in the galaxy of truly contemporary poetry. Zirconia's female speaker is by turns fatigued, charmed, wishful, battered, sly, perverse, and omnipotent. These poems engage a material world not unlike ours yet featuring a phantasmagorically elliptical relationship to the dimension of real action. Her speaker is detached, but alive to the poignancy of detachment, and through the "silver lips of a feverish child" invites connectivity by means of tenderness and brutality. Long pauses, enforced by strings of gemlike punctuation, allow for the reader's digestion of hilarious, frightened, sometimes frightening substance. One is compelled to follow trails of feminine intuition, savagery, ennui, fantasy, and intimacy to their diabolical, fruitful conclusions. Zirconia is accessible, confrontational, hilarious, occasionally shocking, never ever dull, and often extremely moving.

Book Description
Zirconium oxide or Zirconia has a melting point of about 27000, is resistant to chemical attack by acids and bases, is very stable at high temperatures in oxidizing atmospheres, and is inert when in contact with most metals at high temperatures. In addition, zirconia is relatively inexpensive and abundant. These characteristics of zirconia would make it a very satisfactory material for many high-temperature applications, were it not for the fact that pure zirconia undergoes an allotropic transformation from tetragonal to monoclinic on cooling through a temperature range in the neighborhood of 900 C. This transformation takes place with a volume increase of about 3 percent. During the reverse transformation near 11000 C on heating, zirconia shrinks by about the same amount. The large anisotropic volume changes associated with the transformation cause bodies made from pure zirconia to disintegrate during their manufacture or when in use. In practice, this difficulty is circumvented by adding small amounts of certain Oxides, such as calcia, magnesia, yttria, etc., to zirconia. Depending on the kind and amount of oxide added to the zirconia, the high-temperature crystal structure of the combination is totally or partially retained on cooling, and the allotropic transformation is also totally or partially suppressed. This so-called stabilized zirconia performs satisfactorily in many high-temperature applications, but the addition of stabilizing oxides also introduces some undesirable features, such as an increase in the thermal-expansion coefficient, a lowering of the melting point, and, for some types of stabilized zirconia, a tendency to disintegrate on prolonged thermal cycling. A zirconia-base material combining the high-temperature properties of pure zirconia without the disadvantages associated with the use of stabilizers would be highly desirable.

Book Description
In this book, you will find a lot of exciting and often astonishing information about these extraordinary and diverse materials. The presentation is essentially chronological and follows the history of the discovery of these materials. Their properties and areas of application are described along the way. The book represents a mixture of technical and non-fiction book: understandable for experts and laymen. Three different materials that are often confused because of their similar sounding names. Zircon is an ancient mineral and has great geological significance. It is a genuine gemstone and similar to diamond. Zirconium is the 40th chemical element and as a metal it is characterized by extraordinary properties. For example, it is permeable to thermal neutrons. In addition, there is a group of special zirconium alloys, e.g. zirkalloy. Zirconia is a special modification of zirconium oxide, is only produced artificially and, like zircon, is similar to diamond. Zirconium oxide itself is one of today's most important high-performance ceramics, with a wide range of applications in dentistry or in a lambda probe, among others. This book is a translation of the original German 1st edition Zirkon, Zirkonium, Zirkonia - ähnliche Namen, verschiedene Materialien by Bȯzena Arnold, published by Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature in 2019. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation. Springer Nature works continuously to further the development of tools for the production of books and on the related technologies to support the authors. The Author Dr. Bȯzena Arnold (formerly Boczek) is professor emerita of materials engineering at the HAW Hamburg University of Applied Sciences and has many years of experience in imparting materials engineering knowledge.
