The solid-state mechanical alloying (MA) of high-nitrogen chromium-manganese austenite steel—MA in a planetary ball mill, —was studied by methods Mössbauer spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). In the capacity material for we used mixtures binary Fe–Mn Fe–Cr alloys with nitrides CrN (Cr2N) Mn2N. It is shown that milling has led to occurrence ? ? ? transitions being accompanie...

Nano-boron, as a potential high-energy additive due to its high calorific value, is widely studied in propellants, explosives, and thermites. However, the unexpected agglomeration of surface oxidation hinders further application, especially casting energetic materials. The fluorine-modified nano-boron nB@F2603 nB@F2603@CL-20 preagglomerated microspheres were prepared by electrospray improve ign...

The soilborne fungus Verticillium dahliae is the major pathogen that causes the verticillium wilt disease of plants, which leads to huge economic loss worldwide. At the early stage of infection, growth of the pathogen is subject to the nutrition stress of limited nitrogen. To investigate the secreted pathogenic proteins that play indispensable roles during invasion at this stage, we compared th...

Samples of ambient aerosols from the 2010 California Research at the Nexus of Air Quality and Climate Change (CalNex) field study were analyzed using negative ion mode Nanospray Desorption Electrospray Ionization High-Resolution Mass Spectrometry (nano-DESI/MS). Four samples per day (6h each) were collected in Bakersfield, CA on 20–24 June. Four characteristic groups were identified: molecules ...

Thermal plasmas, normally generated by DC (direct current) arc or inductively coupled RF (Radio Frequency) discharge, can be described as a high enthalpy flame with extremely high temperature fields (1,000~20,000 K) and a wide range of velocity fields from several m/s [1-5] to supersonic values [6-7]. Since the resultant huge enthalpy can be realized for various kinds of plasma forming gases an...

objective: maintaining the health of oral tissues is a major goal in dentistry. however, limitations in dental materials, instruments, procedures and medications prevent achievement of this goal. advances in nanotechnology have paved the way to approach this goal. this study reviews the advances on nanotechnology in dentistry. review of literatures: in this review study, google scholar, pubmed,...

Hodson, Phillip H. (University of Texas, Austin), and J. W. Foster. Dipicolinic acid synthesis in Penicillium citreo-viride. J. Bacteriol. 91:562-569. 1966.-Dipicolinic acid (DPA) accumulation in culture filtrates of the mold Penicillium citreo-viride was studied in surface and submerged cultures. Good DPA yields were obtained in suspensions of washed, submerged mycelium in the presence of a ca...

Recent developments in fabrication techniques and extensive investigations of the physical properties of III-V semiconductor nanowires (NWs), such as GaAs NWs, have demonstrated their potential for a multitude of advanced electronic and photonics applications. Alloying of GaAs with nitrogen can further enhance the performance and extend the device functionality via intentional defects and heter...
