Iridium (III) is a fairly rare element. It can be found in a variety of alloys, but is best known for its striking colors. It has a reputation for being a good conductor in certain situations. For example, it does not react with any acid. However, it will do so in the presence of a …
Soviet scientists had discovered in 1963 that nanodiamonds powder was possible from carbon-based explosives-caused nuclear explosions. The detonation process has been used to create this promising material since 1963. Synthesis – nano-diamond crystal powder using detonation method Hydrothermal synthesis or ion bombardment can produce nano-diamond in powder form, but the detonation process is quicker, has …
The Earth’s crust holds 0.01% of its boron. Boron is a dark or silvery-gray solid. It is hardier than diamond but is black in colour. The crystal boron’s texture is fragile and has lower hardness. Boron is named in Arabic after the Arabic term “flux”. It is believed that early Arabs understood that borax could …
It has been an important breakthrough in the field of battery research to increase battery life. However, there are many challenges that must be overcome. North Carolina State University is trying to figure this out. Their material was layered with crystalline, tungsten dioxide hydrate. This allows for the adjustment of charge transfer rates by using …
However, nitrogen has a very chemically stable nature. It can, however, form nitrides that contain many elements when given certain conditions. This is where the research on transition metals nitride and titanium nitride has focused. High electrical conductivity, superconductivity, and attractive color of titanium nitride are some characteristics. It’s also suitable for high-temperature materials such …
What is Aluminium Carbide? Aluminium carbide also known as aluminum tetracarbide with the molecular formula Al4C3, and is a form of aluminium carbonide. It is an ionic, translucent, hard, yellowish brown, rhombic hexagonal crystal. At room temperature it doesn’t conduct electricity and has a complex crystal structure. It is possible to have 4,5-6 coordinated metal …
What’s tin disulfide, you ask? Tin disulfide It is an n-type semiconductor with a layered hexagonal CdI2 cristal structure. Because of its large band gap, it has excellent optical and electric properties. It can be used for electrical conversion, holographic recording, solar cell materials and as sub-battery materials for lithium chemical books. It is also …
Because of its unusual properties (large specific surface area, large pore size and high chemical inertness), porous bore nitride attracts increasing attention as a non-oxide new material. Porousboron nitride, which is a novel type of porous material that’s not oxidized, is another new form. You will find either open or interpenetrating pores within the interior. …
What’s GaN powder? GAN is an extremely stable compound, and has a hard high melting temperature material with a melting points of approximately 1700. GaN’s ionization level is high, which makes it the best III-V compound (0.5 and 0.43). GaN crystal, which is a hexagonal wurtzite formation under atmospheric pressures, can be found in a …
What is Hafnium Carbide? Hafnium carbide This gray solid needs to be stored at room temperature. Hafnium carbonide is capable of forming a solid solution when mixed with other compounds such as ZrC or TaC. As an example, HfC-4TaC’s composite carbide has two phases. The first phase is the eutectic form of hafnium carbid tantalum …
