Automotive is requesting engine control IC to operate in 145°C ambient. Power Gold technology can allow ICs to operate hotter. Since more power dissipates from molded package and across FR4 board with ICs at 175°C Tj-max instead of at present 125°C or 150°C, Power Au technology enhances power product. Continuous, reliable 175°C Tjmax operation is achieved with Power Au. Top silicon metallizatio...

The aim of this study is to develop an extraction method for the producing of a safe and efficient source of antioxidant compounds from fresh and pre-treated sweet orange (Citrus sinensis cv shahsavari) peel. Three types of solvents (100% ethanol, 100% water and ethanol-water mixtures at the ratios of 35:65 and 65:35, v/v), three duration times (60, 120 and 240 min) were chosen as the parameter...

A corrosion-inhibiting mixture of compounds has been developed for addition to the water used to rinse metal parts that have been cleaned with aqueous solutions in preparation for adhesive bonding of the metals to rubber and rubberlike materials. Prior to the development of this corrosion inhibitor, the parts (made, variously, of D6AC steel and 7075-T73 aluminum) were rinsed by deionized water,...

Electrodeposited aluminum films and template-synthesized aluminum nanorods are examined as negative electrodes for lithium-ion batteries. The lithium-aluminum alloying reaction is observed electrochemically with cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic cycling in lithium half-cells. The electrodeposition reaction is shown to have high faradaic efficiency, and electrodeposited aluminum films reach t...

A method is described for the systemic identification and quantitative analysis of nitrogen-containing compounds and other non-hydrocarbons in crude oils. The pre-fractionation of a crude oil sample into 7 fractions was performed by di-adsorption column chromatography using neutral aluminum oxide and silica gel. A subsequent high-resolution separation of individual components was achieved by us...

BACKGROUND Aluminum is considered to be a relatively safe metal for humans. However, there are some reports that aluminum can be toxic to humans and animals. In order to estimate the toxicity of aluminum with respect to humans, we measured the aluminum concentration in urine of aluminum-handling and non-handling workers and investigated the relationships between their urinary aluminum concentra...

Ultra-low-density fiberboards (ULDFs) were prepared by a liquid frothing technique using plant fibers as the matrix and Si-Al compounds as the filler to be used as a versatile bio-based composite. Si-Al compounds played an important role in the fire properties of ULDFs. Fire intensity and the amount of volatiles were significantly restrained because of the Si-Al compounds. To determine the comb...

In this study, the effect of temperature on the diffusion welding of AZ31 magnesium alloy and 7075 aluminum was discussed. Diffusion welding temperature was the most important parameter since all mechanisms are sensitive to temperature in Diffusion welding method. Intrusive contacts between the two alloys at temperatures of 430, and 440 °C 450 and took 60 min. In all tests constant pressure and...
