Using first-principles calculations, we model the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) growth of carbon nanotubes (CNT) on nanoparticles of late-transition (Ni, Pd, Pt) and coinage (Cu, Ag, Au) metals. The process is analyzed in terms of the binding of mono- an ...
There is increasing concern about environmental pollution by diffuse emissions of various environmental hazards emitted by transportation activities. For the first time substances released by railways to the environment were investigated. We considered the ...
The high-temperature wettability of AlN particle preforms with pure molten Cu, Al and Ph is quantified by means of drainage curves measured during pressure infiltration. By integrating the drainage curves obtained in this study, the work of immersion for e ...
The press-cake (PC) of oleaginous species (Brassica napus, Moringa oleifera, Glycine max) has been investigated as a biosorbent for metals removal from contaminated water. ...
Quant. evidence for the existence of aromaticity involving the d orbitals of transition metals is provided for the first time. The doubly bridged square planar (D4h) coinage metal clusters (M4Li2, M = Cu (1), Ag (2), and Au (3)) are characterized as arom. ...
Recent research on the incorporation of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) into ceramic and metal matrices to form composite structures is briefly reviewed, with an emphasis on processing methods, mechanical performance, and prospects for successful applications. ...
Reactions of tBuP(NH2)2 with Group 13 trialkyls MR3 (M = Al, Ga, In; R = Me, tBu) were investigated in detail. According to variable-temp. (VT) NMR investigations, the reaction proceeds stepwise with the initial formation of aminophosphane adducts, which s ...
Several washing agents ( EDTA, CDTA, NTA, 8 HQS, Ti-EDTA- citrate, Ca2+, and H+) were tested for their ability to extract adsorbed metal from biological surfaces to distinguish between internalized and total cellular metal (Pb, Ni, Cd, Zn, and Cu) for a gr ...
The catalytic influence of major metal species found with waste wood (Na, K, Ca, Mg, Zn, Pb, Cu) was studied during the gasification of nitrate salt impregnated charcoal with CO2 at 800degreesC in the kinetically controlled regime. In contrast with literat ...
