The growth of precipitates in a deformed Cu Ni Si alloy with an aging treatment and the rearrangement of dislocations were investigated using X-ray scattering methods. A small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) method was used for characterizing the growth behavior of the precipitates with aging. The results showed that the precipitates grew gradually to a few nanometers in radius in the alloy aged ...

Physicochemical properties of rice flour and rice starch differing in amylose content were evaluated in Setra Ramos and Mentik Susu rice varieties. The objectives of this research was to determine the physical properties i.e. thermal, X-ray diffraction patterns and chemical properties i.e. moisture content, lipid content, protein content, total starch content, amylose content, FT-IR analysis, a...

In the present investigation, dissimilar friction welding between AA6063-T6 and SS 304L materials of pipe joint configuration with an outer diameter 88.90 mm a wall thickness 5.4 was performed. Four different experimental conditions were varied based on visual inspection after each weld. The welded joints evaluated by vacuum leak detection, thermal shock test, pneumatic pressure tensile optical...

By introducing the second organic N-heterocyclic ligands 2,2'-bipyridine (2,2'-bipy)/1,10-phenanthroline (phen), two mono-/bi-nuclear examples of Cu(II)-diphosphonate coordination polymers based on 1-hydroxyethylidenediphosphonic acid (H5L=CH3C(OH)(PO3H2)2), [Cu(H4L)2(2,2'-bipy)]·H2O 1 and [Cu(H3L)(phen)]2·(HOCH2CH2OH)0.52, have been solvothermally obtained and characterized by powder X-ray dif...

Studies examining nanoparticles (NPs) and hazardous elements (HEs) contained in suspended sediments (SSs) are vital for watershed administration ecological impact evaluation. The biochemical consequence of titanium-nanoparticles (Ti-NPs) from SSs Colombia's Magdalena River was examined utilizing an innovative approach involving nanogeochemistry this study. In general, the toxicity human health ...

Reversible potassium ion insertion into Na3V2O2x(PO4)2F3-2x, which is regarded as a solid solution between Na3V3+2(PO4)2F3 and Na3V4+2O2(PO4)2F demonstrated for the first time. V3+/V4+-mixed Na3V2O2x (PO4)2F3-2x-multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) composite was prepared by conventional hydrothermal reaction. Na3V2O2x(PO4)2F3-2x-MWCNT exhibiting an average electrode potential of 3.7 V in cell du...

We demonstrate self-trapping of light by simultaneously compensating normal and anomalous (saddle-shaped) diffractions with self-focusing and self-defocusing hybrid nonlinearity in optically induced ionic-type photonic lattices. Innovative two-dimensional gap solitons, named "saddle solitons," are established, whose phase and spectrum characteristics are different from all previously observed s...

A bone has a hierarchical structure as shown in Fig. 1 [1]. Macroscopic bone properties are dependent on the microstructure and properties of structural elements. The bone is a composite material that consists of hydroxyapatite particles in a matrix of collagen fiber. Borsato et al. [2] measured the strain of hydroxyapatite by X-ray diffraction and obtained clear evidence of the stress concentr...
