In situ X-ray nanotomography of metal surfaces during electropolishing
A low voltage electropolishing of metal wires is attractive for nanotechnology because it provides centimeter long and micrometer thick probes with the tip radius of tens of nanometers. Using X-ray nanotomography we studied morphological transformations of the surface of tungsten wires in a specially designed electrochemical cell where the wire is vertically submersed into the KOH electrolyte. ...
متن کاملPrecipitation and surface adsorption of metal complexes during electropolishing. Theory and characterization with X-ray nanotomography and surface tension isotherms.
Electropolishing of metals often leads to supersaturation conditions resulting in precipitation of complex compounds. The solubility diagrams and Gibbs adsorption isotherms of the electropolishing products are thus very important to understand the thermodynamic mechanism of precipitation of reaction products. Electropolishing of tungsten wires in aqueous solutions of potassium hydroxide is used...
متن کاملLaboratory System for X-ray Nanotomography
Using advanced X-ray technologies and X-ray scattering enhancement in signal detection, a compact laboratory X-ray scanner for 3D non-invasive imaging with 150-200 nanometers 3D detail detectability has been created. This spatial resolution in the volume terms is equal or better than can be achieved in synchrotron tomography, 5 orders better than in existing laboratory instruments and 10-12 ord...
متن کاملPtychographic X-ray nanotomography quantifies mineral distributions in human dentine
Bones are bio-composites with biologically tunable mechanical properties, where a polymer matrix of nanofibrillar collagen is reinforced by apatite mineral crystals. Some bones, such as antler, form and change rapidly, while other bone tissues, such as human tooth dentine, develop slowly and maintain constant composition and architecture for entire lifetimes. When studying apatite mineral micro...
متن کاملQuantifying yield behaviour in metals by X-ray nanotomography
Nanoindentation of engineering materials is commonly used to study, at small length scales, the continuum mechanical properties of elastic modulus and yield strength. However, it is difficult to measure strain hardening via nanoindentation. Strain hardening, which describes the increase in strength with plastic deformation, affects fracture toughness and ductility, and is an important engineeri...
