Specifications of Gallium Metal

*In 1875 in Paris, Paul E. Lecoq de Boisbaudran discovered Gallium metal which has the chemical symbol of Ga.
*Atomic weight of this silvery-blue metal is 69.723 and Gallium is included in other metals group. 

*Gallium element is considered to be non –toxic and no important harmful effect has been detected in industrial usage. 

*Gallium element is a silvery, glass-like, soft metal and in periodic table it is very close to nonmetals. Gallium is one of a few metals which have liquid form. 

*Gallium melting point 29.76 °C . So, Gallium element is liquescent in room temperatures. 

*Just like water, gallium also becomes larger when it freezes. 

*Gallium material is very useful in Surgical Instruments Manufacturing and health applications. Gallium metal may also be used in different alloys. 

*Gallium arsenide is a very important substance for the production activities of semiconductors.

Improving Dialysis Process with Graphene

Researchers from Mechanical and Electrical Engineering Departments of MIT recently showed that graphene is a powerful material candidate for use in the dialysis systems (such as hemodialysis machines in medical institutes for filtering human blood). In order to prepare graphene as a dialysis material, researchers used a procedure opposite to the general treatments that nanotechnology people use. Dialysis is a process of filtering different solutions such as human blood by a membrane in order to remove waste molecules, drugs, chemical residues from the solution. In some cases, the process can be used for purification of chemicals or isolation of different molecules for medical diagnosis. It is an essential process for scientists especially in the medical operations.

Graphene Tyres and Graphene Brake Pads

Could Graphene Use Create A Distruptive Technology In Tyre Sector? Almost every day, we see new applications emerging from graphene. The fact is certain; graphene is a disruptive technology that holds huge potential for commercialization. Graphene has abilities to open new markets and even replace existing materials or material technologies. A brand new application of graphene came out which is producing graphene tyres and brake pads. https://www.canadacarbon.com/brake-linings-gasket... In 2016 GraphChina (Graphene Innovation Conference); Sentury and Huagao launched their first electrostatic conducting graphene tyre on September 22nd. 2-3 weeks before the conference Sentury and Huagao officially announced their cooperation on the product. During the press conference, Sentury’s engineers (which is branded with the Landsail moniker), revealed that the latest test data shows their graphene-enhanced tyre offers; 1.8 meters shorter stopping distances (6 % improvement on conv...
