Metallurgical & Materials Engineering PDC Workshop

Participants join this seminar to learn about the "Polymer-to-Ceramic" route, which allows for the shaping of ceramics using traditional polymer processing techniques like spinning or coating before pyrolysis. The video provides a deep dive into Catalytic Water Oxidation using PDC-immobilized nickel nanocatalysts and the manufacturing of Oxidation-Resistant Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMCs) for extreme environments. It also highlights the historical and ongoing academic ties between IIT Madras and German research institutions, offering insights into collaborative R&D ecosystems.
