Aluminum’s unique properties, such as high thermal conductivity, rapid heat dissipation, and its persistent oxide layer, mean ...

The inclusion of a thicker aluminium oxide layer in TOPCon solar cells could provide superior resistance to UVID, according ...

Metals may seem tough, but given enough time even plain old air can be their undoing. Oxygen reacts with it to form metal oxides like rust, but now it turns out a metal oxide may come to the rescue.

In the lab Researchers at TU Wien employed noncontact atomic force microscopy and computational modelling to determine the structure of the aluminium oxide surface. (Courtesy: TU Wien) Determining the ...

THE formation of boehmite on the surface of anodized aluminium by immersion in boiling water has been investigated by Hart 1. In particular, studying ammonium borate anodic films on aluminium, he ...

Aluminum is normally protected by a thick oxide layer, but the formation of the amalgam disrupts it. It allows fresh aluminum ...

With the unique properties of nanomaterials, such as having a high surface-to-volume ratio and a diverse morphology and structure, they have become a desirable material for different applications.

THE chromium–aluminium oxide catalyst system is one most commonly used in the aromatization of paraffinic hydrocarbons. In practice, mixtures containing up to 20 per cent chromium oxide are used, this ...
