the development of nano/ultrafine bainitic structure in aisi 52100 steel was the goal of this study. for this purpose,the aisi 52100 the specimens were austenitized at 1050 °c for 60 min followed by low-temperature austemperingtreatment at different temperatures and times. the austempered samples were characterized using field emissionscanning electron microscopy (fesem), x-ray diffraction (xrd...

development of an eco-friendly, low cost and high energy density limnpo4 cathode material has attracted much attention due to its high operating voltage vs. li falling within the electrochemical stability window of conventional electrolyte solutions and offers more safety features due to the presence of a strong p-o covalent bond.synthesis of battery materials integrates the battery technology ...

a new approach for the synthesis of prussian blue nanoparticles using the cationic surfactant cetyl pyridinium chloride (cpc) as capping agent has been developed in the present work. powder x-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, uv–vis absorption spectra, and ir spectroscopy were employed to characterize the product. the tem image showed that the prussian blue nanoparticles with d...

the preparation of nano-sized tio2 by titanium tetraisopropoxide (ti(oipr)4) via sol-gelmethod using acid as a catalyst is investigated and the optimized conditions concerning theproportional amount of acid, water, alcohol is established by xrd and sem. the effect ofcalcination temperature on phase transformation of tio2 (rutile, anatase and brookite) wasdetermined by xrd. the smallest grain si...

nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite was precipitated from calcium hydroxide and phosphoric acid. effects of precipitation temperature and different calcium to phosphate ratios (ca/p) on the obtained powders were investigated. characteriza-tion of the powders was performed using xrd and ftir spectra, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. increase in precipitation tempera...

nanocrystalline zno particles were prepared by a novel sonochemical route from zinc acetate and sodium hydroxide without any requirement of calcination steps at high temperature and without surfactants. variations in several parameters and their effects on the structural (crystal size and morphology) properties of nanoparticles were investigated. characterizations were carried out by x-ray diff...

objective(s): hardystonite (ht) has been successfully prepared by a modified sol-gel method. we hypothesized thatnano-sized (ht) would mimic more efficiently the nanocrystal structure and function of natural bone apatite, owing to the higher surface area, compare to conventional micron-size (ht).materials and methods: the hardystonite nanopowder was prepared via a modified sol-gel method.optimi...

znfe2o4 mixed spinel ferrite nanoparticles obtained through a citrate-nitrate combustion method. ignited products calcined at different temperatures in 600-900ºc range and effect of calcination treatment temperature investigated. final products characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (ftir), and field emission scanning electron microscopy (fesem). the a...

clay minerals are considered the most important components of clastic reservoir rock evaluation studies. the shurijeh gas reservoir formation, represented by shaly sandstones of the late jurassic-early cretaceous age, is the main reservoir rock in the eastern kopet-dagh sedimentary basin, ne iran. in this study, x-ray diffraction (xrd), x-ray fluorescence (xrf), scanning electron microscopic (s...
