A novel method for the preparation of phase-pure K-β-alumina is reported by the gel-to-crystallite conversion method. Here, coarse gels of hydrated alumina Al2O3 ·yH2O (80<y<120) were reacted with ethanolic KOH, yielding crystalline K-inserted gibbsite or K-pseudoboehmite. Thermal decomposition of these precursors abo…

A unique and theoretically sound method of deriving cross-sectional area along wool fibres is developed. Diameter values are derived from an equation based on an ellipse whose parameters are the semi-major and semi-minor axes and the angle of rotation of the ellipse. These parameters are used directly to calculate the…

The crystallisation of malachite has been studied in a system involving the counter diffusion of Cu2+ and CO=3 through a silica gel column at 25 °C. In such a system supersaturation is a function of time and position along gel column. Under these conditions kinetic variables are required in order to justify nucleation…

Insulation degradation of high voltage equipment is one of the major concerns of electricity supply authorities. In particular current transformers have received a much attention since large numbers are installed in substations and their rate of failure has been relatively high. Conventional current transformers(CTs)…

Fracture in an aluminum conductor of an LSI(large-scale integrated circuit) is often caused by stress-induced diffusion of atoms along a grain boundary, which is called"stress migration". As the conductor is subjected to tensile hydrostatic stress at a high temperature due to thermal mismatch, it is important to under…
