CA91 108 We report on resistivity and chemical stability of Cr/Au bilayers deposited by sputtering on three kinds of substrates: alumina, aluminum nitride and aluminum nitride coated alumina. The insertion loss of Cr/Au microstrip lines fabricated on these three substrates was low and stable after 700 cycles in the -65°C to 125°C temperature range.

Chloro-Fluoro Carbons (CFC), also known as Refrigerants or Propellants, are highly volatile compounds which can be analyzed via gas chromatography. There production, application and especially release is controlled carefully as they have a direct impact on the ozone layer. For the separation via GC, we meet some challenges as due to their volatility, a stationary phase is required with very hig...

In this research work, Al 1wt% silver coated multi wall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) composite have been processed using powder metallurgy technique. In order to distribute CNT uniformly in the aluminum matrix high energy ball milling is required. . It was found that excessive milling can lead to carbide and alumina formation. So to reduce the milling time, the surface of CNT is modified by coating ...

radar absorbing materials, i.e. magnetite (fe3o4) coated carbon fibers (mccfs) were fabricated by electro-deposition technique. black-colored single spinel phase fe3o4 nanoparticles was easily synthesized by hydrothermal method using reduction of a fe (iii) - triethanolamine complex in an aqueous alkaline solution at 60-80 ◦c. uniform and compact fe3o4 films were fabricated on nitric acid treat...

a sensitive and selective solid phase extraction procedure for the determination of traces of cd(ii),zn(ii) and ag(i) ions has been developed. an alumina-sodium dodecyl sulfate (sds) coated on with2,3 di hydro 2,3 para tolyl qinazoline (1 h)- 4 one (dptqo). the influences of the analyticalparameters including ph and sample volume were investigated. common coexisting ions did notinterfere on the...

An alumina surface coating is demonstrated to improve electrochemical performance of MoO(3) nanoparticles as high capacity/high-volume expansion anodes for Li-ion batteries. Thin, conformal surface coatings were grown using atomic layer deposition (ALD) that relies on self-limiting surface reactions. ALD coatings were tested on both individual nanoparticles and prefabricated electrodes containi...

carbon nanotubes were synthesized over a series of zn-containing fe/alumina catalysts by chemical vapor deposition method at two reaction temperatures of 850 and 950 °c using methane as a carbon source. catalysts were synthesized by keeping fe concentration constant and varying zn concentration to study the effects of zn. the catalysts were characterized using x – ray powder diffraction and n2 ...

The interaction of 12 substituted phenol, three aminophenol and four substituted aniline derivatives with the corn protein zein was studied on zein-coated silica and alumina stationary phases by high-performance liquid chromatography using bidistilled water as mobile phase. Solutes were eluted from the zein-coated supports with different retention times indicating that they bind to the protein ...

Mesoporous alumina catalysts that incorporate nickel (Ni-Alumina) with different Ni/Al molar ratios of 1:2, 1:5 and 1:10 were synthesized by a one-step sol–gel method using lauric acid as a template. The prepared Ni-Alumina catalysts showed a relatively high surface area with a narrow pore size distribution after calcination at 700 ◦C; these effects were independent of the Ni/Al molar ratio. Al...

The transient heating in an unsymmetrical coated hot–strip sensor was simulated with a self–adaptive finite element method. The first tests of this model show that it can determine with a small error the thermal conductivity of liquids, from the transient temperature rise in the hot–strip, deposited in a substrate and coated by an alumina spray.
