Homogeneity in Sintering of Fine Ni-20Cr Powder by Pulsed Electric Current Sintering (PECS) Process

Pulsed Electric Current Sintering (PECS) is a sintering technique that allows fully dense materials to be produced at high heat rates in a short period of time. PECS also shows promise in being able to produce high performance porous materials. The difficulty in producing such porous materials is th

Mechanical Behaviour of Hybrid SiO2-PMMA Coatings Measured By Nanoindentation

In this paper researchers prepared hybrid SiO2-PMMA coatings by the sol-gel method and measured coating hardness. They applied two depth sensing indentation (DSI) systems, each one using indenters with different geometry and size, to analyze the mechanical behaviour of hybrid coatings with different

Effect of Base Type on Properties of NiO Synthesised by Sol-Gel Method

In this work different nickel precursors and bases yielded NiO particles with different sizes for uses in catalysts. NiO particles from Ni(NO3)2 were the largest followed by NiO from NiCl2 and NiSO4 respectively. In addition, use of NaOH yielded slightly bigger NiO particle than that of KOH.

The Current State of the Global Semiconductor Market

The global semiconductor market has entered an exciting period. Demand for chip technology is both driving the industry as well as hindering it, with current chip shortages predicted to last for some time. Current trends will likely shape the future of the industry, which is set to continue to show

How are Graphene Batteries Made?

The primary distinction between graphene-based batteries and solid-state batteries lies in the composition of either electrode. Although the cathode is commonly changed, carbon allotropes can also be employed in fabricating anodes.

What Role Will The IoT Play In The Electric Vehicle Industry?
