Planar defects may exhibit free volumes which, in principle, are detectable using positron annihilation spectroscopy. In this contribution, we present a preliminary theoretical study of positron trapping at stacking faults in zinc oxide and at a grain boundary in zirconia. In particular, we calculate the positron life…
The results of magnetic and specific heat studies are reviewed and discussed for the series of RZnSn2 (R = Y, Er and Lu) compounds crystallizing in the same tetragonal HfCuSi2 - type of structure. A sharp peak in the specific heat of ErZnSn2 compound is indicative for magnetic ordering of Er moments at 5.0 K, being in…
The current available microcarriers were mainly targeted towards pharmaceutical industries, and might not be suitable for therapeutic implantation. As such, apatite-based microcarriers intended for bone tissue engineering applications would be featured here. Hydroxyapatite-Alginate (HA-Alg) suspension was extruded dro…
To improve ocean engineering durability, concrete using high-volume ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBS) was prepared, its mechanical property and durability were investigated. 4% activator and 61% GGBS were used to replace 65% cement in cementitious material. Activator was used to improve workability, volume s…
Chemically synthesized collagen with triple helix structure similar to natural collagen has been developed as a safe biomaterial. If the chemically synthesized collagen is deposited with apatite, they are expected for novel bone substitutes having bioactivity and bioresorbability. Although apatite formation on the che…
Large surface area nanostructural IrOx films were deposited on stainless steel substrates by reactive radio frequency magnetron sputtering using Ir metal target. The structural and spectroscopic properties of the nanostructural IrOx were characterized. The micrographs of field emission scanning electron microscopy sho…
Ternary alloys, (Fe50−x/2Co50−x/2)Snx (x ≤ 33 at.%), are prepared by mechanical alloying from powder mixtures of the three elements. As-milled alloys are studied by X-ray diffraction and 57Fe and 119Sn Mössbauer spectroscopy. The solubility of Sn in near-equiatomic bcc FeCo is increased from ~0.5 at. % at equilibrium…
For the first time, an ultraintense x-ray laser has revealed the previously unknown atomic-scale structure of a protein, researchers report online today in Science .
Various approaches have been developed to exploit the functional properties of proteins and the structural properties of nanoscale materials. These range from biomolecule-nanomaterial hybrids and biocatalytically-generated self-assembled amphiphiles to protein-based structural templates. This commentary by Jonathan Do…
Lead zirconate titanate powders (PZT) with different Zi/Ti values 52/48, 53/47, 54/46 and 55/45 were prepared by sol-gel technique. The sol was prepared by mixing stable solutions of Zr-nitrate, Pb-acetate and Ti (OC4H9)4 precursors. The decomposition of precursors above 773 K, 923 K and 1073 K for Zi/Ti value equls t…
RNi9In2 and their hydrides crystallize in the YNi9In2 structure type. Low pressure hydrogenation leads to absorption of 1.5-3.4 H/f.u. RNi9In2 (R= Pr, Nd, Eu) as well as PrNi9In2H1.7 and NdNi9In2H1.5 exhibit Curie-Weiss behaviour in the 2-300 K temperature range. EuNi9In2 reveals ferromagnetism below approximately 40…
ab initio simulations were employed to investigate the crystal structure of carbonated apatite (CAp). Two possible sites for the carbonate ions in the apatite lattice were considered: carbonate substituting for OH- ion (type-A) and for PO43- ion (type-B). A combined type-AB substitution was also proposed and numerous…
We focused on the investigation of the influence of carboxylic acid additives on the morphology of hydroxyapatite (Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2, HAp) particles synthesized by a homogeneous precipitation method. Three types of carboxylic acids with different number of carboxyl groups, that is, acetic acid, succinic acid and citric…
The impact explosive temperature of reactive material is not only an important indicator to measure the ability of explosive reaction, but also a required parameter to carry out thermo-chemical calculation. So there is important practical significance to study the impact explosive temperature effect of reactive materi…
The giant magneto-impedance (GMI) effect of amorphous wire and its affecting factors were analyzed. Magnetic impedance (MI) element was designed with a special structure. So the difficulties of complex negative feedback circuit and winding double circuits on amorphous wire were solved. High frequency current pulse gen…
The high temperature proton exchange membrane fuel cell (HT-PEMFC) is widely paid attention to due to the characteristics of simple water management, high intolerance of CO and high utilization of heat. In order to discover the effects of different operating factors on the performance of HT-PEMFC, several sets of expe…
This paper reports a study of the effect of ZnO nanoseed structure on the growth orientation of ZnO nanorods prepared using a seed-mediated hydrothermal process. In this work, we prepared vertical align ZnO nanorods by a two-step process namely seeding and growth process. ZnO nanoseed on a silicon oxide (SiO2) coated…
On the basis of analyzing the oil well cement corrosion mechanism by SO42- and HCO3-, the corrosion products, microstructure and compressive strength of cement stone were measured and the changing regularity and influence factors of compressive strength were analyzed under different experimental conditions. The follow…
It is set on results the conducted experiments, that the appearance of multiple of fatigue cracks on specimens and design units with numerous concentrators takes place stochastically dependently. This stochastic relationship, both positive and negative, is observed in some zone, with certain dimensions. Positive cross…
In this work positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy (PALS) is employed to study the ortho-Positronium lifetime parameters τ3>, σ3 and I3 in two structurally simple amorphous polymers 1,2-poly(butadiene) and cis-1,4-poly(isoprene). The ortho-Positronium mean lifetime parameter τ3> is compared with dynamics data fr…
