Dr. Mattia Biesuz

Department of Industrial Engineering, University of Trento, Trento, Italy;
Mattia Biesuz got a Ph.D. in “Materials Engineering” at the University of Trento (Italy) in 2017 defending a thesis on the flash sintering mechanisms in alumina and glass-containing alumina ceramics. Since then, he had several research experiences as a PostDoc in China, UK, Czech Republic, and Italy. His research interests currently include various sintering technologies for ceramics consolidation (flash sintering, spark plasma sintering, cold sintering, ultrafast high-temperature sintering), field-assisted ion exchange in glasses and glass-ceramics, porous materials, polymer-derived ceramics, and high-entropy compounds. His research has been mostly focused on underlying the peculiar physical-chemical effects activated by electric fields during ceramics processing. To date, he has published 78 manuscripts. His works have been awarded the “Pfeil Award” (Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining, UK, 2020), “MRS Postdoctoral Award” (2022), the “Best Paper Award” in the Journal of the Asian Ceramics Societies (2019). He is an associate editor of Materials, and a member of MRS and ICerS.

Webinar Content

On Friday 10 June 2022, MDPI and the Journal Materials organized their 7^th webinar entitled “Synthesis and Sintering of High Entropy Ceramics”, and chaired by Dr. Mattia Biesuz from the Departmnet of Industrial Engineering at the University of Trento in Italy.

High entropy ceramics are an emerging new class of materials with novel (and still quite unexplored) functional properties. Their synthesis and sintering require techniques considered "non-conventional" due to their complex chemistry.

In this webinar state-of-the-art synthesis and sintering approaches to this new class of materials are presented and discussed by Dr. Mattia Biesuz, Dr. Luca Spiridigliozzi and Dr. Václav Tyrpekl.

The presentations were followed by a Q&A and a discussion, moderated by the Chair. The webinar was offered via Zoom and required registration to attend. The full recording can be found here on Sciforum website.
