The behavior of Al8B4C7 in CO(g) and its effect as an antioxidant in both Al2O3-C and MgO-C have been investigated, and the corresponding mechanisms have been discussed. Al8B4C7 markedly inhibits the oxidation of the carbon-containing refractories. The added Al8B4C7 reacts with CO(g) quickly above 1400°C to give B2O3.…

For the prevention of a particle-initiated breakdown within gas-insulated switchgear, fundamental characteristics of particle motion were investigated. It was found that the particle motion depends not only on Coulombic force, but on the corona discharge from the tip of a particle. Thus, the corona current from a fixe…

The solubility coefficient (s) values for ethyl acetate in three heat sealant polymer membranes (LDPE, LLDPE and ionomer) were determined over a range of permeant vapour concentrations by a gravimetric procedure and an isostatic permeability technique. The respective solubility coefficient values obtained by the two m…

A low‐temperature process with good step coverage of silicon nitride (SiN) formed by low‐pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD) has been successfully developed by using hexachlorodisilane (HCD). HCD‐SiN showed a higher deposition rate than the conventional LPCVD technique performed at temperatures above 700°C. SiN…
