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.

Cadmium Sulfide Nanopowder and Its Applications

Cadmium sulfide is the inorganic compound with the formula CdS. Cadmium sulfide is a yellow solid. It occurs in nature with two different crystal structures as the rare minerals greenockite and hawleyite. As a compound that is easy to isolate and purify, cadmium sulfide the principal source of cadmium for all commercial applications. Its vivid yellow color led to its adoption as a pigment for the yellow paint "cadmium yellow" in the 18th century. Cadmium Sulfide Nano Powder, CdS (99.9+%, 20 nm)  shows unique physical, chemical and structural properties from the bulk. The melting point, electronic absorption spectra, band gap energy crystal structure, and other properties of cadmium sulfide nanoparticles are affected by size. Thus, cadmium sulfide on the whole is an attractive system for practicing synthetic chemistry for nanocrystals and for understanding the chemistry, growth history of nanomaterials and also for various technical applications. Colloidal dispersions of ...

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 ...
