A tabletop device uses 1.4 J to drive the symmetric collapse of a 1.8 mm radius vapor bubble in water at 22 bar. Single shot streak imaging reveals a stagnation plasma of 28 micron radius at over 12,000 K and an unprecedented pressure of 3.2 Mbar. Compared to sonoluminescence, the most commonly studied cavitation mech…
Well‐crystallized pure BiFeO 3 nanopowders were successfully synthesized at the temperature as low as 120°C by an ethanol‐assisted hydrothermal process. In this synthesis, the composition of the solvent played important roles in the formation of pure BiFeO 3 . The BiFeO 3 nanopowders synthesized with 4:3 ethanol/water…
The studies on potential health risks possessed by engineered nanoparticles (NPs) have been growing rapidly. However, detailed and systemic knowledge on the uptake and biodistribution of NPs in body is still limited. Moreover, there is a need to characterize the relation between the characteristics of NPs (size, surfa…
The microstructural evolution of a cold drawn copper wire (reduction area of 38%) during primary recrystallization and grain growth was observed in situ by electron backscatter diffraction. Two thermal treatments were performed, and successive scans were acquired on samples undergoing heating from ambient temperature…
Nickel–aluminum bronze was subjected to laser heating to change the microstructure on the surface for enhanced corrosion performance. To develop the laser processing parameters, a two-phase diffusion model was used to determine the phase transformation kinetics. Also, an analytical laser heating model was employed to…
Here we report high-precision measurements of structural relaxation dynamics in the glass transition range at the intermediate and short length scale for a strong sodium silicate glass during long annealing times. We evidence for the first time the heterogeneous dynamics at the intermediate range order by probing the…
We have demonstrated that transmission critical dimension small angle X-ray scattering (CD-SAXS) provides high accuracy and precision CD measurements on advanced 3D microelectronic architectures. The competitive advantage of CD-SAXS over current 3D metrology methods such as optical scatterometry is that CD-SAXS is abl…
Oxidative stress constitutes one of the principal injury mechanisms through which particulate toxicants (asbestos, crystalline silica, hard metals) and engineered nanomaterials can induce adverse health effects. ROS may be generated indirectly by activated cells and/or directly at the surface of the material. The occu…
As demand for clean and healthy environment, people make many alternate solutions to save the environment. To save trees and overcome landfill of waste material and waste disposal by burning activities issues (cause to losing energy and increase pollution), people nowadays take recycling as a recovery. Recycling waste…
In this work, the evolution of some key physicochemical parameters of oxide engineered nanomaterial (ENM) dispersions was studied during an in vitro biological assessment. Commercial oxide ENMs, SiO 2 and TiO 2 , were dispersed in aqueous solutions (20 μg/mL) to A549 cells and N-hTERT keratinocytes and were assessed a…
Titanium and silicon dioxide nanoparticles (TiO 2 and SiO 2 NPs) are now in daily use in many commercial products of which food, sunscreens, toothpastes or cosmetics. However, their effects on human body, especially on the central nervous system, are still unclear. The aim of this study was to determine whether direct…
Systematic atomic simulations based on molecular mechanics were conducted to investigate the pull-out behavior of a capped carbon nanotube (CNT) in CNT-reinforced nanocomposites. Two common cases were studied: the pull-out of a complete CNT from a polymer matrix in a CNT/polymer nanocomposite and the pull-out of the b…
This study investigated the use of metal impurities in single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) as potential tracers to distinguish engineered nanomaterials from background aerosols. TEM and SEM were used to characterize parent material and aerosolized agglomerates collected on PTFE filters using a cascade impactor. SEM i…
Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) exhibit advantageous chemical and mechanical properties that render them attractive for a wide range of applications. During the life-cycle of CNC containing materials the nanocrystals could be released and become airborne, posing a potential inhalatory exposure risk towards humans. Absen…
Research about the fate and behavior of engineered nanoparticles in the environment is despite its wide applications still in the early stages. The fast-growing area of nanoparticle research and the high level of uncertainty create a big challenge for describing clearly the recent state of the current scientific knowl…
Photochemical upconversion is a regenerative process that transforms lower-energy photons into higher-energy light through two sequential bimolecular reactions, triplet sensitization of an appropriate acceptor followed by singlet fluorescence producing triplet–triplet annihilation derived from two energized acceptors.…
In the present work polyurethane foams containing various content loadings of kenaf fiber and recycled tire rubber particulates were prepared and studied, with the objective of developing alternative composite rigid foams. The influence of the filler content on the foam microstructure and its physical and mechanical b…
Thermoelectric performance of p-type skutterudites currently lags that of the corresponding n-type materials, and improvement of this important class of materials has become the focus of considerable research effort world-wide. Recent calculations find promising band structure features in p-type skutterudite materials…
Although γ-Ba 4 Nb 2 O 9 was considered to be metastable at room temperature (RT) and, therefore, prepared only by quenching from high temperatures, a new procedure for preparation of pure γ-Ba 4 Nb 2 O 9 from a single-molecular precursor, the oxalate-based complex {Ba 2 (H 2 O) 5 [NbO(C 2 O 4 ) 3 ]HC 2 O 4 }·H 2 O, i…
This paper reports the formation of Ni–CdSe core–shell structures. The Ni–CdSe core–shell structures were synthesized via a seed-mediated growth method where a CdSe shell was grown on preformed nickel core particles. The types of nickel cores include nickel nanocubes of 13 nm in size and spherical nickel nanoparticles…
