What is MAX phase materials? MAX phase materials are novel layered carbon-nitride inorganic non-metallic materials with the electrical and thermal conductive qualities of metals, consisting of three elements with the molecular formula Mn+1AXn (n=…
Concrete, an ordinary building material, has profound effects on our daily lives. Concrete is widely used for a variety of buildings and projects - from skyscrapers and bridges to roads and public facilities, to home improvement. Technically, it is d…
Tungsten Rods: Applications The tungsten bar is a rod shaped material, which has a number of advantages. These include high density and good thermal conductivity. It also resists corrosion. It is widely employed in the manufacture of high-temperatu…
What are surfactants? Surfactants are a class of compounds that reduce the surface tension of a liquid. They can be adsorbed on gas-liquid or liquid-liquid interfaces, thus changing the properties of the interface and affecting its stability, wettabi…
The water-reducing agent should be used with concrete admixture, which will reflect the water-reducing effect. Cement quality is therefore a direct factor of the effect of water-reducing agent. There are different strategies to adopt when encounterin…
Anodes for lithium batteries Materials that store and release Lithium ions are essential to lithium batteries. The anode material is responsible for accepting lithium from the positive battery electrode during charging, and then releasing it to the…
Spherical tungsten powder - Application Fields The spherical powder of tungsten is widely used as a powder metalurgical material in many industries. Following are some key application areas for spherical titanium powder: Hard alloy manufacturing…
Concrete is a modern material that uses a variety of chemical additives, each with varying characteristics. These additives play a vital role in improving the performance of concrete and maintaining its quality. Here are a few chemical additives that…
Scientific community has long been fascinated by boron nitride due to its unique properties: sturdy, ultra-thin transparent, insulating and lightweight. The boron is a material that can be used by a wide range of researchers. According to researcher…
Boron has been a major name in the world of chemistry. There have been two Nobel Prizes in Chemistry for the work done on boron. There are a few heat-resistant products on the market that have added boric acids to common glass. This means the glas…
The titanium hydride used as a getter is also used to make metal foams, as well as to provide high-purity hydrogen. It can also be found in powder metallurgy and metal-ceramic sealing to supply the alloy powder with titanium. Titanium Hydride is v…
