In situ x-ray diffraction was used to optimize the synthesis of Aurivillius structure ceramic powders. Powders were prepared via conventional solid-state synthesis and the Pechini polymer precursor method. The phases Bi4Ti3O12, and Bi2Sr2Nb2TiO12 were studied. The Bi4Ti3O12 phase formed easily, regardless of processing route, between 400-500C and phase purity was achieved by 700C when using the...

Robert Vaughn North America Field Manager, Intel IT Executive Overview Intel IT’s enterprise private cloud has seen reduced total cost of ownership (TCO) annually and maintains a goal of absorbing private cloud growth while reducing absolute spending. To achieve this aggressive goal, continuous improvements in infrastructure efficiency and performance are required. In the second half of 2015, I...

Solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN) have emerged as a next-generation drug delivery system with potential applications in pharmaceutical field, cosmetics, research, clinical medicine and other allied sciences. Recently, increasing attention has been focused on these SLN as colloidal drug carriers for incorporating hydrophilic or lipophilic drugs. Proteins and antigens intended for therapeutic purpo...

Single-step ball milling synthesis of a highly conductive glass ceramic solid electrolyte enables low-impedance all-solid-state battery.

the nanopowders of sno2, casno3 and ca2sno4 in the size rang of 5-70 nm have been prepared using solid-state reaction technique. the technique is convenient and inexpensive in comparison to the conventional routes of compound prepared and processing where, many steps of mixing and annealing are involved. formation of resultant compounds was explained on the basis of reaction taken place between...
