Microscopic examination of the friction track revealed the presence of debris within the wear track. Two types of debris were identified individual rounded particles and more or less dense agglomerates forming flakes or platelets.11 The EDX analysis of debris indicated some traces of oxygen besides silicon. This indicates that the intergranular oxide phases,...

Sintering Nanocrystal Ostwald

sample of wormhole-like tungsten oxide exhibited an Hl-type isotherm,19 which is a kind of type IV and presents a mesoporous wormhole-like structure. The hysteresis loop of the isotherm was an H2 type of type IV curve when the tungsten oxide was calcined at 250 C. The mesopore collapsed and exhibited H3-type isotherms with slit-shaped pores during the calcination process at 500 C, and even yielded little hysteresis loop of the isotherm when the sample was calcined at 750 C. The detailed...

In the case of the high amounts of WC, in other words, less T C,N , the same procedure occurs. Initially, Ti C,N dissolves in the Ni binder to form an inner rim phase with WC. After most of the Ti C,N participates in forming a solid solution with WC, the remaining WC phase begins to form a different solid solution with the inner rim phase...

Secondly, we would like to draw attention to the clear correlation between the MCLs and the mechanical properties. Similar to the compressive strengths, the MCLs of the R samples are clearly longer than those of N samples at 28 and 90 days. However, as it occurs for...

Hydroxyapatite HAp is a mineral and the major inorganic component of human bone and tooth. Solid or porous HAp ceramics have been used as hard tissue repairing materials in clinic. Zittle et al. reported protein adsorption onto calcium phosphates in 1951Since then, hydroxyapatite has also been used as a column packing material for chromatography to separate proteins or enzymes2'3'4. Recently, much attention has been focused on it as an adsorbent for removing pathogenic proteins from blood in...
