Ion beam mixing of Fe/Si bilayers, induced by 100 keV (40)Arions at room temperature was investigated. Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy (RBS), atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and ...

In this study, the synthesis of thin films of Mg phosphorus doped tungsten bronzes (MgPTB; MgHPW(12)O(40).29H(2)O) by the self-assembly of nano-structured particles of MgPTB obtained using the ultrasonic spray pyrolysis ...

The paper analyze the possibility of using LTA zeolite as a precursor for obtaining sillenite phase (Bi(12)MO(20), M=Si, Ti, Ge) by hydrothermal synthesis process. The synthesis procedure involves mixing of zeolite (Na-LTA) ...

To investigate the effects of specific porous microstructure of diatomite on the hydrogen storage properties of MgH(2), a two-step preparation was carried out. The first step was decrepitation of MgH(2) particle size during ...

Hydrogels based on 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate and different types of poly(alkylene glycol) acrylates and methacrylates, with a small percent of itaconic acid, have been prepared by solution copolymerization using gamma ...

The effects of TEA CO2 laser radiation on AISI 420 stainless steel and formed surface structures are studied. The laser energy density of 45.0 J/cm(2) has modified the target surface. Qualitatively, the modifications of ...

Diamond coatings were deposited by the synchronous and coupled action of a hot filament CVD method and a pulsed CO(2) laser in spectro-absorbing and spectro-non-absorbing diamond precursor atmospheres. The obtained coatings ...

Different zirconia colloidal dispersions (sols) were prepared from zirconyl oxynitrate and zirconyl oxychloride solutions by forced hydrolysis. Vigorously stirred acidic solutions of these salts were refluxed at 102 degrees ...

In this work, electrophoretic deposition (EPD) was applied to obtain novel hydroxyapatite (HAP)/lignin (Lig) biocomposite coatings on titanium substrate. Nanosized hydroxyapatite powder, prepared by using the modified ...
