A liquid metal (LM) consisting of one-third weight fraction each of Pb, Sn, and Bi has been investigated as the bonding substance in place of He in the pellet-cladding gap of light water reactor fuel elements. The LM bond eliminates the large ΔT over the preclosure gap that is characteristic of helium-bonded fuel elem…

A new chemical process to synthesize pure ZnO nanocrystal colloidal for bioimaging applications is reported. Zinc acetate dihydrate was dissolved and refluxed in a methanol solution at a low temperature (68degC) and ambient environment. Biocompatible surface capping agents were introduced to the synthesis process to c…

Irradiation is increasingly used nowadays to tailor the mechanical and electronic properties of carbon nanotubes. As the complete understanding of the response of nanotubes to irradiation is still lacking, we have implemented the kinetic Monte Carlo method with Bortz-Kalos-Lebowitz–algorithm in a simulation code which…

It has clearly been shown in the literature that the properties achieved by polymer clay nanocomposites are often related to their structures and to the states of dispersion of the silicate platelets in the polymer matrices. Unfortunately, up to date most techniques used in a standard procedure do not allow a correct…

Mollusc shell formation requires calcium (Ca ) and bicarbonate (CO3 −) ions, transported through the mantle via the hemolymph, and the secretion of an organic matrix that interacts with the mineral ions to form either the aragonite or calcite polymorph of calcium carbonate (CaCO3). The biomineralization process takes…
