A New Type of Carbon Nanostructure Formed Within a Metal-Matrix

Salamanca-Riba L., Herzing A., Mansour A., Hall A., Forrest D.R., LeMieux M., Shugart J., University of Maryland, US

Recent advances in nanomanufacturing have made it possible for large amounts (up to 6 wt.%) of carbon to be incorporated as nanoscale carbon during a reaction process in molten metals. These materials are called “covetics”. [...]

Effects of calcination conditions and Fe/Al molar ratio on structure and properties of mixed Fe/Al-PILCs

Zheng H., Weidler P.G., Pu Y., Cai P., Wu Y., School of Materials Science and Technology, China University of Geosciences, CN

In this paper, solutions containing hydroxyl-FeAl oligocations with Fe/Al molar ratio of 0.5 and 1.0 were prepared by adding Na2CO3 solution to mixture of FeCl3 and AlCl3 with constant stirring until a final OH/(Al+Fe) ratio [...]

Electrochemical Mechanics of Nanometer-Scaled Structural Layers of Bacterial Spores

Kazakov S.V., Pace University, US

The early events in the nutrient and non-nutrient germination of Bacillus subtilis spores are considered in combination with the properties of nanometer-scaled spore structural layers. All structural, not metabolically mediated, transformations at the early steps [...]

Automated Crystal Orientation and Phase Mapping of Iron Oxide Nano-Crystals in a Transmission Electron Microscope

Rouvimov S., Rauch E.F., Moeck P., Nicolopoulos S., Portland State University, US

An automated technique for the crystal phase and orientation mapping of polycrystalline materials in a TEM has recently beam developed. This technique is based on template matching of experimental electron diffraction spot patterns to their [...]
