The functions and structures of Mo/Ni/MgO catalysts in the synthesis of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and Raman spectroscopy. Thin 2-5-walled CNTs with high purities (over 90%) have been successfully synthesized by catalytic decomposition of CH(4) over Mo/Ni/MgO catalysts...

Structures operating at high temperatures and exposed to aggressive gaseous media are made of low-alloy molybdenum TsM-10 of the system Mo-Al-B, TsM-6 of the system Mo-Zr-B and TsM-12 of the system Mo-Zr-Hf-B [1, 2]. Alloy TsM-10 is commercially pure molybdenum deoxidized by aluminium and boron. Alloy TsM-6 is alloyed with up to 0.2 wt. % zirconium and TsM-12, is alloyed with up to 0.03 wt. % z...

To investigate the irradiation properties of Mo-Re alloy of low Re content (atm%: 0% 8:4%), Mo-Re alloy films were irradiated by 200 keV xenon ions at the dose of 5 10 ions/cm. Different irradiation effects were observed on the samples of different Re content. While the sample of pure Mo remained the same after irradiation, obvious localized amorphization phenomenon took place in the sample wit...

Dental alloys for direct metal laser sintering (DMLS) are available on the market today, but there is little scientific evidence reported on their characteristics. One of them is the release of ions, as an indicator of the corrosion characteristics of a dental alloy. Within this research, the difference in the elution of metals from DMLS and cast (CM) samples of Co-Cr-Mo dental alloy in saliva-...

The influence of Mo alloying on the thermal stability of grain size, dislocation density and hardness of ultrafine-grained (UFG) Ni alloys was studied. The UFG microstructure in alloys with low (∼0.3 at.%) and high (∼5 at.%) Mo contents was achieved by high-pressure torsion (HPT) performed for 20 turns at room temperature. The thermal stability of the two alloys was studied by calorimetry. A Cu...

The work presents the results of the studies of Co-Cr-Mo casting alloys used in the production of frame casts of removable dentures, crowns and bridges in dental prosthetics. The studies were performed on four Co-Cr-Mo alloys of different contents of Mo, W and other additives. Electrochemical tests were performed, which aimed at examining the corrosion resistance of the alloys and observing the...

The presented paper studies the effect of the casting technology on the corrosion resistance of Co-Cr-Mo alloy. The investigations were conducted on a commercial alloy with the brand name ARGELOY N.P SPECIAL (Co-Cr-Mo) produced by Argen as well as the same alloy melted and cast by the lost wax casting method performed by a dental technician. The corrosion behavior of the dental alloys in an art...

The Ti-6Al-6Mo alloy was arc-melted eight times from pure Ti, Al, and Mo. The Ti6Al-6Mo were analyzed by using an optical microscope, SEM-EDS, XRD and Vickers Hardness Tester. Corrosion test was performed by using Hank’s solution at 37 °C and pH 7.4. The optical micrograph showed a similar structure of this alloy. The microstructure of Ti 6Al6Mo was basketweave with  lath. The map of Ti, Al an...

Redox conditions in magma oceans (MOs) have a key influence on the mass and composition of Earth’s early atmosphere. If the shallow part of the MO is oxidized, it may be overlain by an H2O–CO2 atmosphere, but if the near-surface magma is close to equilibrium with Fe-rich alloy, then the atmosphere will consist chiefly of H2, H2O, and CO, and on cooling will be rich in CH4. Although MOs are inti...
