Naser Hosseini
YCN representative for the Iranian Ceramic Society
Ph.D. student at Slovak Academy of Science
Naser Hosseini is a PhD student at the Institute of Inorganic Chemistry of the Slovak Academy of Science. He is originally from Iran, and after receiving his bachelor's and master’s degrees in the field of Materials Engineering – ceramics from the University of Tabriz, Iran, he has spent a couple of years working as an engineer in a glass production factory.
His research focuses on the development, characterization, and joining of high entropy ceramics (carbides, borides) with different techniques (such as brazing, diffusion bonding, and direct joining) by using spark plasma sintering technology. In detail, high entropy ceramics are novel ceramic materials with no less than four different cations or anions.
In 2023, he received a JECS -Trust grant from ECerS for 3 months visiting the CNR-ICMATE institute in Genoa, Italy, to investigate the wettability and high-temperature interactions of some alloys on the surface of high entropy ceramics. During this time, he had successful research to introduce new fillers for brazing of (Mo–Nb–Ta–V–W)C and (Hf-Ta-Zr-Nb-Ti)C high entropy ceramics to similar and dissimilar materials.
Studying materials science and engineering in the ceramic field, along with gaining research experience in glass-ceramic materials, and SiC coatings in the bachelor and master programs, provided him with fundamental knowledge in the field. Furthermore, working on the development, characterization, and joining of high entropy ceramics enabled him with a strong background from which he can pursue research work in the ceramics field.

Turning Waste into Raw Materials for the Ceramic Industry.
Waste materials were once seen as a burden but are increasingly being redefined as valuable resources for ceramic production. Through advances in materials engineering, waste can be used as secondary raw materials in the ceramic industry. This shift enables more circular and resource-efficient ceramic manufacturing systems.

Implementing 3D-Printed Technical Ceramics in Regulated Medical Fields.
Bringing a new manufacturing technology into medicine requires far more than producing an impressive component. In highly regulated fields, innovation must be translated into repeatable processes, documented quality, reliable materials and, ultimately, evidence of clinical value. Lithoz has spent more than a decade building this bridge for Lithography-based Ceramic Manufacturing (LCM).
