Silicon nanoparticles are the focus of attention thanks to their potentialities in advanced applications such as new batteries, photovoltaic cells and so on. The need to porous silicon is thus rising and will follow the same trend. In this work, highly porous nanostructured silicon is synthesized via Self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) route. Microstructural and phase analyses sho...

Abstract In the study of precipitates in high-Nb non-oriented silicon steel for rotor electric automobiles, it was found that mass dispersed Nb-rich were formed during rolling process steel, these are presumed to be Laves phases published literatures. this regard, two types automobiles and their crystallographic relationship with Fe matrix determined using SAED, FFT IFFT, calculation strength e...

As a soft magnetic material with excellent performance, silicon steel is widely used in motors and transformers, but its mechanical properties drop sharply when the content too high. Therefore, it of great significance to study influence on mechanisms improve product quality steel. In this paper, Fe-6.5 wt%Si was prepared by vacuum tube furnace, combined metallographic experiment, scanning elec...

Differential charging is often regarded as a problem in X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic studies, especially for insulating or partially conducting samples. Application of a positive bias can reduce the effect of differential charging by attracting stray electrons from the system, thereby compensating for the electron loss. On the other hand, differential charging effect can be enhanced by the...

Industrial CT (computerized tomography) uses a series of 2-dimensional images taken at specific intervals around the entire sample. Basically any type of industrial CT system uses three principal components: an X-ray tube, an X-ray detector, and a rotational stage. Everything is enclosed within a radiation shielding steel/lead/steel cabinet that typically ranges between four and 10 feet cubed. ...

Blockage of pipelines by formation and accumulation of clathrate hydrates of natural gases (also called gas hydrates) can compromise project safety and economics in oil and gas operations, particularly at high pressures and low temperatures such as those found in subsea or arctic environments. Cyclopentane (CyC5) hydrate has attracted interest as a model system for studying natural gas hydrates...
