Boron has been a major name in the world of chemistry. There have been two Nobel Prizes in Chemistry for the work done on boron. There are a few heat-resistant products on the market that have added boric acids to common glass. This means the glas…
The titanium hydride used in powder metallurgy and metal-ceramic sealing is also used to provide titanium for the alloy powder. Titanium Hydride is brittle. It can be used for powdered titanium. The hydride is also used to weld. Thermal decomposit…
Boron carbide is also known as black Diamond. It has the molecular form B4C. The powder is typically grayish. It is one the three hardest materials known (the other two being diamond and cubic boronnitride) and used in many industrial applications, i…
What is tungsten Oxide?Tungsten dioxide has the molecular formula WO3 with a weight of 2318.5. It is a form of tungsticanhydride. Tungsten dioxide is not produced in industrial production. The tungsten-trioxide salts are classified according to thei…
In recent years, transition metal dichalcogenide was one of the key two-dimensional materials for quantum functional applications. These materials have a honeycomb like graphene but have spin-orbit coupling and a honeycomb pattern. They also have a h…
GaN-based chargers have been introduced to the market. These chargers provide a high amount of power for the device, while still maintaining a size that is reasonable, and even take up less space than the traditional chargers. Gallium Nitride, or GaN…
The powder boron is available in four variants. These are hexagonal boron, rhombohedral and cubic boron. The most common boron nitride produced is white graphite, which has a structure similar to graphite. The need to increase battery capacity, impro…
He believes that the graphene market in China, from a business perspective, is not "hot enough" to "reduce" the fever, and should remain "hot". It is an allotrope in which a single layer (atoms) of carbon forms a two-dimensional hexagonal grid in w…
Modern industry cannot function without ultrafine alumina. Alumina powders with ultrafine or fine grain have a different surface electronic structure, and crystal structure, which results in surface effects, and smaller sizes, that cannot be found in…
British media have reported that scientists made a major discovery - the conversion from radio signals into electricity. Popularly speaking, this is power generation via WiFi! We may see battery-free phones and battery-free laptops in the future. Mo…
Flexible electronics can benefit from ultra-thin materials of atomic thickness, which are used for manufacturing microprocessors. Recent breakthroughs have been made in this area by researchers at the Vienna University of Technology, Vienna, and the…
What is aluminium nitride (AlN)?Aluminum nitride (a covalent-bond compound) is an atomic-crystal belonging to a diamondlike nitride. It is non-toxic and has a white, grayish, or white color. Aluminum nitride formula AlN. Aluminum nitride, which is me…
Foam cement is a kind of new light insulation material containing a large number of closed pores.…
People need to know if graphite is toxic to humans and its potential effects on our health so that they can take immediate action if needed.…
First, concrete takes in and transfers warm more easily than dissipates heat easily. When a fire happens, it has the result of supporting burning, which amounts including fuel to the fire. The more it burns, the bigger it gets. Concrete may seem attr…
