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.

Rundown about Silicon Oxide Wafer

The main insulating material used in micro-technology is Silicon Dioxide, which in chemical symbols is written as SiO2. In semiconductor technology, SiO2 thin film layers are mainly used as dielectric material film in transistors, capacitors (DRAM) or flash-memories. Silicon Oxide Wafers are produced using crystallization, solid state and other ultra-high purification processes such as sublimation. This process forms a cylindrical ingot, which is then sliced and polished to form wafers. Thermal oxide is a kind of "grown" oxide layer, compared to CVD deposited oxide layer, it has a higher uniformity, and higher dielectric strength, it is an excellent dielectric layer as an insulator . In most silicon- based devices, thermal oxide layer play an important role to pacify the silicon surface to act as doping barriers and as surface dielectrics. The simplest way to produce an insulating silicon oxide layers (SiO2) on silicon wafers is to oxidize silicon with oxygen, which ...
