the current study assesses the root causes of hydrogen blisters on low strength carbon steel equipment. for this purpose, some experiments including hardness test, non-destructive test (ndt), metallography, and fractograpghy are conducted. the microstructure of two blisters is assessed by means of optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (sem). the microstructural studies show that t...

CuInS2 nanostructures were  synthesized  via  a  simple  surfactant-free solvothermal  route.  In  this  synthesis,  thiosemicarbazide  and thioglycolic acid were used as sulfur sources. The effects of different parameters such as type of precursor and time on the morphology and particle  size  of  the  samples  have  been  investigated.  The nanostructures  were  characterized  by  means ...

  In this work,copper/palladium (Cu/Pd) multilayer nanowires were successfully prepared by electrodeposition method using polycarbonate template. The fabrication of Pd/Cu multilayer nanowires was controlled by analyzing the current–time transient during electrodeposition using potentiostat. The morphological properties of the nanowires were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and resu...

In this work La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 , one group of nanosized perovskite-type oxides were prepared by sol-gel method.
