Specifications of Chromium (Cr)

Properties:
Chromium is a chemical element with atomic number 24. In group 6 Chromium is placed as the first element. Chromium is a grayish, lustrous, hard and brittle metal. Chromium does not tarnish and has a high boiling point. Like some other metals (iron) Chromium is magnetic. When polished chromium becomes shiny, so many use Chromium to protect and color the surface of other materials.
Applications:
Chromium is utilized to make steel hard, to produce stainless steel.
Chromium is used in Chromium plating,
Chromium plated plastics(which are used, for example, in bathroom fittings),
Chromium is used in Tanning leather.
Chromium compounds are used as catalysts and pigments.
Chromium is used in High-speed tool steels.
Chromium is used in Jet engines and gas turbines.
Chromium is used in Electroplating. Synthetic ruby and the first laser.
Chromium is used in Wood preservative. Timber treatment to protect food from decay fungi, blast furnaces, cement kilns, molds for the firing of bricks and also used as foundry sands for casting of metals, as catalysts for processing hydrocarbons.

Carbon Nanotubes Specifications and Properties Carbon Nanotubes, simply CNTs, are allotropes of carbon with a round and hollow nanostructure. These barrel shaped carbon molecules have crucial properties, which are significant for nanotechnology, hardware, optics and other different fields of materials science and innovation. The carbon nanotube’s excellent quality as a strong and firm material laid the basis on many applications. Not to mention carbon nanotubes exceptional heat conductivity, electrical and mechanical properties, Carbon Nanotubes are used as additives to diverse auxiliary materials. In terms of rigidity and flexibility Carbon Nanotubes are the stiffest and strongest materials. These quality outcomes from the covalent sp2 bonds framed between the individual carbon molecules. Unlike Graphene , Carbon Nanotubes are either conductive or semiconducting along the tubular hub. Carbon Nanotubes also have absorption, fluorescence properties. Bulk Carbon nanotubes are util...

Hydroxyapatite Nanopowders and Their Applications

Hydroxyapatite, is a naturally occurring mineral form of calcium apatite with the formula Ca 5 (PO 4 ) 3 (OH). Pure hydroxyapatite powder is white. Naturally occurring apatites can, however, also have brown, yellow, or green colorations, comparable to the discolorations of dental fluorosis. Hydroxyapatite Nanopowder/Nanoparticles (50 nm, 99.95+%)  has been widely used as a biocompatible ceramic in many areas of medicine, but mainly for contact with bone tissue, due to its resemblance to mineral bone. In mammals, the skeleton presents a carbonated and partially substituted apatite, based on nanocrystal aggregates, and associated with collagen, building up 3-D structures present in various bone tissue conformations like trabecular or cancellous bone. There has been growing interest in developing bioactive synthetic ceramics that could closely mimic natural apatite characteristics. As mentioned before,  Hydroxyapatite Nanopowder  is the main inorganic constituent of bon...
