How is Cuprous Oxide Cu2O powder produced?
The main methods for preparing cuprous oxide are as follows:
1. Dry method: The copper powder is mixed with copper oxide after removing impurities, and then sent into the calcining furnace to be heated to 800-900°C to be calcined into cuprous oxide. After taking it out, use a magnet to absorb mechanical impurities, and then pulverize to 325 mesh to prepare cuprous oxide. If copper sulfate is used as the raw material, the copper in the copper sulfate is first reduced with iron, and the subsequent reaction steps are the same as the method using copper powder as the raw material.

2. Glucose reduction method: the copper sulfate solution is mixed with glucose and then added with sodium hydroxide solution to react to produce the cuprous oxide, which is filtered, rinsed, dried and crushed to obtain the cuprous oxide product.

3. Electrolysis method in iron: in the electrolytic cell lined with polyvinyl chloride, the cast copper plate is used as the anode, the red copper plate is used as the cathode, potassium chromate is used as the additive, and the salt solution is used as the electrolyte. Under the conditions of 290～310g/L, potassium chromate 0.3～0.5g/L, temperature 70～90 ℃, pH 8～12, current density 1500 A/m2, electrolysis will produce the cuprous oxide, which will be separated by precipitation, rinsed, Filter and dry to obtain cuprous oxide.

4. Hydrazine reduction method: Pour 3～5mL 20% hydrazine aqueous solution into 50mL high-concentration copper acetate aqueous solution to reduce the divalent copper ions. The solution turns green at first and generates nitrogen gas. After a period of time, yellow to orange-yellow cuprous oxide is precipitated. The precipitate was washed with water, ethanol and ether. Because excessive hydrazine can further reduce the cuprous oxide to metallic copper, the amount of hydrazine should not be excessive. How do you make Cu2O? Copper(I) oxide may be produced by several methods. Most straightforwardly, it arises via the oxidation of copper metal:

4 Cu + O2 → 2 Cu2O. Additives such as water and acids affect the rate of this process as well as the further oxidation to copper(II) oxides.

5. Glucose reduction synthesis method of film solution: 50g copper sulfate pentahydrate and 75g potassium sodium tartrate are respectively dissolved in 200mL cold water, and the two are mixed when the solution is cooled to room temperature. In addition, 75 g of sodium hydroxide was dissolved in 200 mL of water to prepare an alkaline solution. While stirring the mixed solution, slowly add the alkali solution, and be careful to maintain the temperature of the solution, so that the temperature of the solution does not rise, and the solution turns dark blue. The divalent copper salt solution is heated to a boil, and 10% glucose solution is added until the blue color disappears, and red cuprous oxide is precipitated. Then put it in 1L of cold water, let it stand for about 15 minutes, discard the supernatant liquid; add water and stir, after decantation, filter with a Buchner funnel; wash the precipitate twice with 15mL water, and then wash it with ethanol three times, And finally dry in an air bath.

6. Direct oxidation of metallic copper: Use platinum wire to hang metallic copper in a vertical tubular electric furnace, and heat it at 1000°C for 24 hours in a nitrogen atmosphere containing 1% (volume fraction) of oxygen to obtain cuprous oxide. Or the stoichiometric mixture of metallic copper and copper oxide is enclosed in a vacuum tube and heated at 1000° C. for 5 hours to react to obtain cuprous oxide.

Hafnium Hydride at High Pressure

hafnium hydride is a refractory, face-centered cubic or tetragonal crystal that is formed by reacting hafnium with hydrogen gas. It is typically produced as an intermediate in the process of making hafnium powder from mass hafnium metal.The structure of most transition metal hydrides is CaF2 (Fm-3m space group) where the metal atoms form a face-centered cubic lattice while the hydrogen atoms occupy the tetrahedron centers. The group IVB dihydrides TiH2, ZrH2 and HfH2 display a much more basic face-centered tetragonal (fct) cell structure of the I4/mmm space group and exhibit fascinating superconducting properties6,7,8.Stable phases of HfH2 under pressureA comprehensive investigation of the pressure-induced phase transformations and properties of a unique, high-Tc superconductor, HfH2, under high pressure has been performed using structural searches, first-principle calculations and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The results indicate that a metastable stochiometric HfH9 is formed by the stabilization of a unique, H12 tube-like structure in a HfH3 framework under 200 GPa.Hydrogen-rich hydrides are important materials in search of exotic properties such as high-Tc superconductivity3,4 and the existence of diverse hydrogen chemistries at high pressure is key to these efforts5,6. This study provides a new insight into the chemistry of hydrogen-rich hydrides, which will lead to better understanding of their structural and electronic properties under high pressure.The bonding nature of HfH2 is studied by electron localization function (ELF), difference charge density and Bader charge analyses, which reveal that the ionic bond is formed between Hf and H atoms and that HfH2 is classified as an ionic crystal with the charges transferring from Hf to H atoms. These findings are complemented by the structural studies of I4/mmm, Cmma and P21/m at 100, 200 and 250 GPa, which show that the HfH2 can be characterized as a stable crystalline phase under these conditions.

The Chemical Formula For Calcium Nitride

Calcium is a nutrient that your body uses for healthy bones and teeth. It also plays a role in the control of blood pressure and maintains heartbeats.It is a member of the alkaline earth elements group and serves as an alloying agent for other metals such as aluminum and beryllium. It is found in many industrial materials such as cement and mortar.The chemical formula for calcium nitride is Ca3N2 (Ca-N-O). It has an atomic number of 20 and a valency of +2.How is this compound produced?Calcium nitride is produced from elemental calcium and nitrogen. It is a red-brown, crystalline solid that is formed when the calcium reacts with air to form the oxide, CaO.To produce calcium nitride, a fine fibrous calcium metal purified by distillation is placed in a nickel boat and heated at 450 for 3 4 h in pure N2 gas flow. At this temperature, the metallic calcium undergoes a crystal transformation into a hexagonal crystal (body-centered cubic), which loosens its lattice structure and allows the nitriding reaction to occur.Calcium nitride is widely used as a catalyst for the synthesis of other compounds, as a reagent for metal alloying, as a desiccant and a chemical analysis reagent, and as a raw material in the production of light-emitting diode (LED) phosphors. It is also a significant hydrogen storage reagent and a critical material in advanced fuel cells.

Modified Tribo-Phosphorylated Phosphoric Acid (ModTP)

Modified Tribo-Phosphorylated Phosphoric Acid (modtp) is an additive in lubricants that imparts antifriction, antiwear, and antioxidation properties. It can be used in engine oils, hydraulic oils and greases.Compared with other tribo-polyphosphates, molybdenum dialkyl phosphorodithioate (modtp) complexes have a higher tribological performance at low temperatures and low loads. In addition, it has good oxidation resistance, which can extend the shelf life of lubricants.Four modtp complexes with alkyl chain lengths ranging from C5 to C10 have been synthesized and their antifriction, antiwear and antioxidant properties have been characterized vis-a-vis commercial molybdenum dithiophosphate. The synthesized products exhibit appreciable anti-friction, antiwear and antioxidant performance in mineral oil, base oil and finished engine oil and are comparable to commercial modtp.The tribological behavior of piston ring sliding against grey cast iron cylinder liner under the lubrication of petroleum based engine oil SJ/5W-30 containing molybdenum dithiocarbomate (MoDTC) or molybdenum dithiophosphate (modtp) was studied in reciprocating test rigs at different temperatures. The friction coefficient curve of both compounds exhibited a "V" shape when the test temperature increased from 125degC to 320degC.The tribofilm formed by MoDTC was mainly composed of MoS2 while that formed by modtp was largely composed of FePOSUB 4. The tribofilm of MoDTC was significantly more effective in reducing the friction than that of modtp. The tribofilm of MoDTC had a lower oxidation tendency than that of modtp.

Titanium Nitride and Its Applications

Electrical conductivity is the ability of a material to carry current. Titanium is a poor conductor of electricity as its outermost orbital 4s2 is completely filled leaving electrons in the down orbital 3d2 that are unavailable for carrying current through it.The electrical properties of titanium vary with temperature. When it is heated, its electrical conductivity decreases as electrons are lost from the atom.Nitride is a compound formed by a nitrogen atom and a metal. It is commonly used as a dielectric coating to protect or harden the surfaces of conductive metals such as copper and insulator materials like thermal oxides.Typical applications of nitride include creating a barrier layer between a silicon chip and a metal contact. It is also used as a conductive connection between metal connectors on microelectronic circuit boards.Refractory nitrides, such as TiN, have fascinating superconducting properties. When a thin film of TiN is chilled to absolute zero, it converts into a first-ever superinsulator!It is used to coat the edges of metal parts and tools such as drill bits, milling cutters, and punches. The coating increases lubricity and reduces friction, improving tool life up to 7 times over uncoated tools. It also improves corrosive resistance and minimizes galling between sliding mold components.Tantalum nitride TaN powder can be used as an additive for superhard materials to produce pure tantalum pentachloride, which can be sprayed and improve the electrical stability of transformers, integrated circuits, and diodes. It is a low-cost, high-performance nanomaterial that is suited for spraying and application in various industries.

Cobalt Chromium Molybdenum Alloys

cobalt chromium molybdenum alloys are used in the medical industry for applications such as orthopedic implants. Their popularity has waned due to their limited hardness and tribological properties, leading to the development of alternative systems.In orthopaedics, cobalt-chromium-molybdenum alloys have been widely used in hip replacements and other metal-on-metal prostheses because of their high strength. However, complications such as loosening and tissue necrosis have been reported. These have been attributed to the alloy’s biocompatibility.Alloys of this type are manufactured using a range of processing techniques, including casting and wrought forging. Some are fabricated through spark plasma sintering, which results in an alloy with carbide-free microstructures.The influence of chromium and molybdenum content on the phases present in a cobalt-chromium-molybdenum system is investigated through X-ray diffraction (XRD), nanomechanical, and electrochemical behavior. The results indicate that the hardness of the alloys increases in line with the increasing chromium content, and reduces with increasing molybdenum content.In addition, the open-circuit potential, polarization resistivity, and linear sweep voltammetry disclose that passivity improves in line with the increasing Cr content, whereas reduced modulus demonstrates an inflection at 30 wt% of Cr. These findings are in agreement with previous research on the metallurgical properties of cobalt-chromium-molybdenum systems.Cobalt-based alloys possess many desirable properties, such as heat resistance (strong at very high temperatures), wear resistance, and corrosion resistance. They are generally categorized into softer and harder grades, based on the crystallographic nature of cobalt (its sensitivity to stress), the solid-solution-strengthening effects of chromium, tungsten, and molybdenum, the formation of metal carbides, and the corrosion resistance imparted by chromium. The softer and tougher compositions are usually employed in high-temperature applications such as gas turbine vanes and buckets, while the more rigid grades are used to withstand wear and tear.
