Abstract Carbon Black granules were modified in a rotating RF (13.56 MHz) plasma reactor fed with NH3/O2 gas mixtures, in order to graft acid (O‐containing) and/or basic (N‐containing) chemical groups and tune their surface acid/base character. X‐rays photoelectron spectroscopy was used to evaluate the surface chemica…

It has been suggested that medicine will change more in the next 20 years than it has in the past 2000. This may be true, as a result of advances in biotechnology and the recent emergence of nanotechnology. The concept of nanotechnology was first introduced by the quantum theorist and Nobel laureate Richard Feynman. N…

The solidification of grey cast iron is controlled by the addition of inoculants. This is done in order to provide nucleation sites and hence facilitate the formation of eutectic cells and decrease the degree of undercooling. The number of eutectic cells and the graphite morphology affect the final properties of the c…
