Rundown about Aluminum

Properties:
Aluminum (Al) is a silvery-white, soft and malleable metal. Aluminum is light and sixth most ductile element. Aluminum readily reacts with oxygen, so aluminums pure form is rarely found. However, because of the reaction with oxygen, aluminum oxide is formed and coats the aluminum itself and prevents it from corrosion. That comes as the reason why aluminum is widely used in many applications. Aluminum is non-toxic, non-sparking, and non-magnetic. Aluminum has high thermal and electrical conductivity. The most crucial property of Al(Aluminum) is that when aluminum is alloyed with other metals, the resulting product acquires many astonishing properties. Alloys with magnesium, manganese, copper, silicon are quite strong, but lightweight at the same time. When evaporated in vacuum, Al(Aluminum) can be used as a reflective coating for heat and light. At last, aluminum is cheap and replaces most metals in daily life use.
Applications:
Aluminum is used in many diverse products
Aluminum is used in the aircraft components
Aluminum is used in window frames
Aluminum is used in kitchen utensils
Aluminum is used in foils, cans, beer kegs
Aluminum is used in vehicles and aircrafts
Aluminum is used in wires, electrical transmission lines
Aluminum is used in toys , packaging elements
Aluminum is used in papers, sheets , telescope mirrors
Aluminum is used in protection coats
Aluminum is used in solar technology
Aluminum is used in outdoor furniture

New Way of Deaf-Mute Communication with 3D Graphene

Image retrieved from: http://blogs.rsc.org/cc/2016/09/01/3d-graphene-adds-dimension-to-deaf%E2%80%93mute-communication/ Chinese scientists have developed wearable electronic device with conductive 3D graphene structure to translate sign language into written text. This technology can be applied by injecting graphene ink from a syringe under printed electronic field. For medical field, such as adhesive patches which determine heart, brain signal and neural activity, wearable and bio-integrated medical devices are very important. Due to noticeable properties of cast graphene, for example a 2D honeycomb lattice, excellent mechanical and electrical behaviors, Graphene has an important material in warble technology. However, it is difficult to preserve advantages of Graphene material in a 3D material which has an information about forces from every angle. Yanlin Song  and co-workers at the University of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, and Shenyang Jianzhu University...

Titanium Carbide Powders and Applications

Titanium carbide which has the chemical formula of TiC attracted great interest for many structural applications due to its extremely high melting temperature, high hardness, high chemical resistance and good electrical conductivity. Therefore titanium carbide can be used in cutting tools, grinding wheels, wear-resistant coatings, high temperature heat exchangers, magnetic recording heads, turbine engine seals, and bullet-proof vests, etc. In addition, a promising field of application comprises plasma and flame spraying processes in air, where titanium carbide-based powders show high-phase stability. TiC(Titanium Carbide Powder) (325 mesh, 99,9+%)  can also be used in biomedical implant devices. Materials used for biomedical implant devices must satisfy a variety of property demands, which are often mutually exclusive. Further, different parts of a device demand different material properties. These factors often make it difficult to manufacture a medical device using a...

Carbon Nanotubes Doped with Graphene Nanopowder and Applications

Carbon nanotubes and graphene are different forms of carbon atom based materials. They have different properties and can be used in various applications. But what happens if we use them as a hybrid structure? The excellent mechanical, physical, and chemical properties of low-dimensional carbon materials like graphene and carbon nanotube have enabled them as promising building blocks for three-dimensional nanoarchitectures. In this regard, extensive interests have been attracted to synthesize graphene and carbon nanotube hybrid structures. Earlier works suggested that  Carbon Nanotubes Doped with Graphene Nanopowder (52 wt% Graphene )  is a promising solution for quick energy dissipation, which could enhance interface thermal conductivity of the ‘building blocks’ for future nanoscale mechanical and electrical devices. In the electricity perspective, it is found that ‘CNT pillared-graphene’ system would extend the excellent electrical conductivity of graphene and nanotube to ...
