Bismuth oxide powder is used for the manufacture of ceramic dielectric capacitors and other electronic ceramic materials. It also serves as an analytic reagent. This material can be found as pellets, pieces, tablets, and sputtering targets.

There are two types of bismuth oxide, a-type and b-type. The a-type is a yellow monoclinic crystal and has a melting point of 825 degC. It is easily reduced to metallic bismuth by hydrogen or hydrocarbons.

Compared with a-type, b-type has a cubic crystal system and is soluble in acidic solutions. Both of these properties make b-type an ideal compound for making solid oxide fuel cell electrolytes.

Bismuth trioxide is a yellow solid. It occurs naturally as a mineral called bismite. In the process of manufacture, it is carefully packaged and tagged for easy identification.

Bi2O3 is a promising candidate as a radiopacifier in mineral trioxide aggregates. It possesses a high temperature metastable face-centered cubic d phase which can be used as an ionic conductor. These perovskite structured oxides are also cathodes in oxygen generation systems and solid oxide fuel cells. They offer a vast range of potential for a novel thermoelectric material.

The use of micron-bismuth oxide powder is expected to grow due to the growing number of applications in the field of solid oxide fuel cells. Additionally, this material can be used in the manufacture of oxygen sensors, ceramic capacitors, and high purity oxygen generators.

Micron-bismuth oxide powder is a good candidate for use as an oxygen sensor because of its oxygen ion conductivity. However, it is important to ensure that the product is stored in a dry and sealed environment. Also, it should be avoided to apply excessive pressure or undergo a heavy pressing process.

A titanium carbonitride coating has excellent wear and chipping resistance, making it an ideal coating for plastic injection molding dies. It has also been found that this coating can enhance the composite material properties of the molded parts.

The use of titanium carbonitride coatings can save a lot of money in the production of injection mold parts. Besides, the surface microstructure of the coatings can help to reduce the friction between the parts. For this reason, titanium carbonitride coatings are widely used in the manufacture of drilling equipments, cutting tools, and other non-ferrous materials.

The surface microstructure of the coatings is characterized by a quadrangular pyramid pattern. This pattern is fine and close, and is similar to the column crystal width.

X-ray diffraction analysis was performed on the coatings to determine their composition. A D8 Advance diffractometer was used for the analysis. The diffraction patterns were recorded with a step of 0.05 deg. From these data, a percentage of the coating's phase composition was determined.

Young's modulus values of the coatings ranged from 145 GPa to 19 GPa. The -70 V coating showed the highest nanohardness value at the optimum voltage.

The coatings were synthesized by changing the content of a reactive gas mixture. They were deposited on well-polished titanium substrates. Their surface was polished using diamond paste to obtain a 1 mm thick film.

SEM observations revealed the presence of two main phases: a barrier layer and an intermediate protective layer. These layers promote adhesion between the titanium substrate and the final overlay. In addition, the barrier layer prevents reaction between the coating constituents and the titanium.

Nickel oxide is a chemical that is commonly used in electroplating, frit manufacturing, and ferrite magnets. It is often available in different particle sizes and forms. NiO powder can be produced in high purity.

A new study investigated the release of nickel from NiO and nickel metal powders. Comparing results, the authors found that the relative release of Ni from these powders was dependent on particle size, surface area, and manufacturing process. The relative amount of nickel released was also higher for the powder than for the metal.

The toxicity of the material was studied by administering the powders to rats. Twenty percent of the rats given nickel powder in addition to manganese showed tumor formation. This was in contrast to the case of the metal powder, which protected against the induction of tumors.

Results suggest that the relative amount of nickel released from a nickel metal powder was approximately six times greater than that from an oxide powder. Release rates increased with time, suggesting that the powder particles were becoming more active with time.

The highest rate of release was observed after 6 hours of exposure. This was in accordance with previous literature findings. However, larger variations in nickel release were observed based on the particle size, the agglomeration, and the concentration of the powder.

The nickel oxidation half-life was shorter in the tracheobronchiolar compartment. For a 4.0 um NiO particle, the biological half-life was 21 mo. Enhanced nickel release was seen in solutions with reduced pH.

WS2 is a lubricant additive that reduces friction and wear in engine oil. Moreover, it improves engine compression. It is a harmless additive, but if used too much, it can increase fuel consumption and cause a loss of engine performance.

WS2 is produced from Tungsten Di-sulfide. The nanoparticles have a tribofilm that smoothes out uneven engine parts and reduces friction. Although tungsten disulphide was used for high-end applications in the past, it has become more affordable and is now used in various types of engines.

WS2 particles have excellent adsorption and dispersant properties. They also have shock absorbing properties. Thus, they can be used in mining and heavy duty axle oils. This research was conducted to analyze the effects of different forms of WS2 on the anti-wear and anti-friction properties of lubricating oil.

Two types of WS2 were studied in this experiment: flaky and lamellar. Lamellar WS2 is a layered structure with a thickness of 2 mm. A layer of WS2 is dispersed in the lubricating oil, and the particles partially deposit on the friction pair.

The morphology of wear scars on the surface of friction pairs was investigated. The friction process was carried out under various sliding speeds, load, and mechanisms. In addition, the wear rate and anti-wear capacity were analyzed.

The wear-scar test was performed at the FZG load stage, at a speed of 1,450 revolutions per minute. The test results show that the wear-scar performance of the sample oil #2 did not change significantly within the same load range.

Calcium nitride is an inorganic compound with chemical formula Ca3N2. Calcium nitride is a powder that contains calcium and nitrogen in a ratio of three to two. It is a flammable solid that should be kept away from heat and open flames.

There are a number of applications for calcium nitride, including chemical synthesis and optical materials. Calcium nitride is also used as a catalyst in the synthesis of organic compounds. In addition, calcium nitride is used as a nitride source in metathesis reactions.

Calcium nitride can be produced from calcium metal or elemental calcium. The most common method is to heat the calcium metal with nitrogen gas at high temperatures. This results in a loose crystal structure. Alternatively, calcium nitride can be produced by a series of synthesis methods.

Another method of synthesis involves a reaction of calcium carbonate with ammonia. A second method of synthesis is to heat calcium nitride with hydrogen at temperatures above 350 degC.

The price of calcium nitride will depend on the market supply and demand and on the costs of production and transportation. For example, the price of the material in China will differ from that in the U.S. and other parts of the world.

In addition to being an important material for chemical synthesis, calcium nitride is also used in the production of various nanomaterials. For instance, calcium nitride is used in the synthesis of LED phosphors. It can also be used in the production of hydrogen fuel cells.

One of the most popular lubricants, WS2, is now available as an oil additive. It has been shown to be effective in improving engine performance. Whether you are a car owner or a trucker, you can benefit from using it.

WS2 is made from Tungsten Disulfide. These are tiny particles that can reduce friction and heat in your engine. The nanoparticles are usually between 80 and 120 nanometers in size. They are also non-toxic and ashless.

WS2 oil additive can be added to a variety of lubricants to improve its performance. Additive concentrations should be optimized at 5% oil volume. You can mix it with grease or add it to your engine oil.

Using nano-additive oils, such as WS2, GP, and WS2/GP, has been shown to improve the lubricating performance of the base oil. In addition to the reduction of friction, they are also effective in improving wear and load bearing capacity.

Depending on the type of oil, these additives can be found in different packaging types. Some are tube-type packages, while others come in standard lidded containers.

WS2 powder is also available. To mix the powder with oil, you will need a teaspoon. This is about 4.9 grams. When mixed with a little grease, the WS2 powder is added to the oil and grease to improve lubricity.

Besides improving lubrication, these additives are also effective in reducing corrosion and removing deposits. They can help increase the compression of your engine to decrease black smoke in diesel engines.
