Facts about Boron Nanopowder


- Boron was discovered by Joseph Louis Gay-Lussac and Louis Jacques Thénard in 1808.

- Boron Nanopowders are spherical or faceted high surface area oxide magnetic nanostructured particles.

- Boron is found in borates, borax, boric acid, colemanite, kernite, and ulexite.The name Boron originates from a combination of carbon and the Arabic word buraqu meaning borax.

- Boron nanopowder has been used for applications including ceramic and polymer nanocomposites.

- Boron Nanopowder can serve as a rugged, highly abrasive surface for any number of purposes. Combined with Boron Nanopowder’s thermal properties, this makes Boron Nanopowder highly effective for high speed cutting and similar tasks.

- Borates in general work to kill a variety of insects and similar pests through simple physical destruction, making Boron Nanopowder one of the most universally effective pest control options.

- The thermal properties of Boron Nanopowder make it an excellent ignition aid for any number of applications. This sees Boron Nanopowder used in charcoal briquettes, fuels, torches, and countless other applications.

- Boron compounds produced with boron nanopowders make it useful in anti-freeze, brake fluids, hydrolic systems, and other applications where ferrous materials need protection against corrosion.

- Boron Nanopowder offers unique applications in photography, tanning, electrolytic condensation, fuel cells, and a host of other photoelectric fields.

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 Oxide Dispersion

Graphene oxide refers to a mono-atomic layer material obtained when graphite crystals are oxidized. This is one of the graphene materials that are commercially available because of  its ability to dissolve in water  which makes the oxidation process suitable. In this article, we will talk about the  synthesis, the properties and some of the applications of graphene oxide dispersion in water . Seven Properties of Graphene Oxide Dispersion The properties of a material are defined through its structure, however, this material is very peculiar, since there is no unambiguous model of this material. Graphene Oxide dispersion offers remarkable physical, chemical and mechanical properties that give the opportunity to new applications. Graphene Oxide is amorphous , but, in general, graphene oxide can be described as a two-dimensional sheet containing honeycomb carbon atoms with functional groups of hydroxide and oxygen, unlike the graphene model that seeks to completely re...
