The amphipathic magnetic nanospheres were synthesized using C8 and polyethylene glycol as ligands. Their morphology, structure, and composition were characterized by transmission electron microscope, Fourier transform infrared, and elementary analysis. The prepared materials presented uniform sphere with size distribution about 200 nm. The magnetic characteristics of magnetic nanomaterials were...

Non-evaporable thin film getters based on the elements of the 4 and 5 columns of the periodic table have been deposited by sputtering. Among the about 20 alloys studied to date, the lowest activation temperature (about 180 °C for a 24-hour heating) has been found for the Ti-Zr-V system in a well-defined composition range. The characterization of the activation behavior of such Ti-Zr-V films is ...

Introduction: The olivine-phyric basaltic shergottites (OPSs) have recently been recognized as a significant sub-group of the Martian meteorites. These rocks have many characteristics suggestive of a primitive nature such as high bulk and olivine-core Mg#s [1]. [2,3] conducted crystallization experiments using the composition of Yamato 980459 (Y98), an OPS. Results of these experiments show tha...

The effect of Cerium and Cobalt substitution in Zinc ferrites with respect to their electrical and magnetic properties has been investigated in this paper. The nanoparticles of Zn1-x-y Cex Coy Fe2O4 ( x = 0.012, 0014, 0.016, 0.018; y = 0.01, 0.001, 0014, 0.016) is prepared by sol gel route and sintered in a microwave furnace. The nano size, structure and composition of Ce-Co doped Zinc ferrite ...

Bioactive materials have evolved over the past three decades from relatively specialized, highly biocompatible, but low-strength dental materials to new compositions for expanded use in restorative dentistry. The objective of this review is to understand the concept of bioactivity and to compare and contrast the various bioactive materials while shedding light on new applications for this evolv...

Because of the tremendous variability of crystallite sizes and shapes in nano-materials, it is challenging to assess the corresponding size-property relationships and to identify microstructures with particular physical properties or even optimized functions. This task is especially difficult for nanomaterials formed by self-organization, where the spontaneous evolution of microstructure and pr...
