In-situ synthesis of HAp/TiO2 coating on titanium was performed via anaphoretic deposition of HAp and simultaneous anodization of Ti to produce highly adherent and strengthened composite coating. The prepared coatings were ...

Hierarchical structures, which refers to the materials that have more than one length scale, organized as the assemblage of primary units with high surface-to-volume ratio, play an important role in advanced materials ...

Renewable energy sources are energy sources that are derived from nature and can be renewed. Today, they are increasingly being used because of their harmlessness to the environment. Most renewable energy technologies are ...

The olivine type compositions LiMPO4 (M = Fe, Mn, Co) are among the most attractive materials for the positive electrode of lithium-ion battery. The benefits of using LiFePO4 are excellent cycle life, high structural ...

Increased industrial, agricultural and domestic activities resulted in the production of large amount of wastewater containing a number of toxic materials which continuously polluting the available fresh water. Sorption ...

The barium titanates have wide application in electronic industry as a dielectric and ferroelectric materials.The BaTiO3 doped with Sn is important for practical application in ceramic capacitors as well as in functionally ...

The broad spectrum of selenium applications in pharmacy and medicine has been known for a while and strongly depends on its chemical form, size and shape. However, the use of Se often requires consumption over the long ...

Fullerenes, nanotubes, quantum dots have been considered as effective sensitizers to modify both the spectral, optical, nonlinear optical features, dynamic and polarization characteristics, as well as mechanical properties ...

Mechanical activation leads to the creation of new surfaces and decrease in particle size of the initial powder particles, which affects the crystallization of PVDF matrix. In addition, prolonged mechanical activation ...

Low intrinsic electronic conductivity is the main disadvantage of LiFePO4 when used as a cathode material in lithium ion batteries. The paper offers experimental proofs of the theoretical prediction that fluorine doping ...
