We report the synthesis of Ni/SiOCN ceramic nanocomposites with high surface area as catalysts for carbon dioxide and methane conversion.

High-entropy materials, which include high-entropy alloys and ceramics, show promise for their use in many fields, yet a robust synthesis strategy is lacking. Here we present simple general approach, laser scanning ablation, to synthesize library of alloy ceramic nanoparticles. The ablation method takes only five nanoseconds per pulse ablate the corresponding nanoparticle precursors at atmosphe...

Revision rates of total hip arthroplasty have decreased after introducing total hip arthroplasty (THA) using ceramic component, since ceramic components could reduce components wear and osteolysis. The fracture of a ceramic component is a rare but potentially serious event. Thus, ceramic on polyethylene articulation is gradually spotlighted to reduce ceramic component fracture. There are a few ...

Hydroxyapatite (HA) is one of the most common biocompatible ceramic with wide usages in various aspects of medicine due to the resemblance to the mineral bone tissue. The particle size of HA has a key roll in determination of the reaction rate at the interface of natural bones/artificial. Accordingly, this paper tries to propose a novel approach for the preparation of HA nanoparticles from natu...
