Uses Of Bismuth Nanoparticles

Properties:
Bismuth is a dense, silvery with a pinkish tinge metal. Bi (Bismuth) is mild and breaks easily and at room temperatures it cannot be manipulated or utilized. With a melting point of 271 Celsius and boiling point of 1560 Celsius, Bismuth enlarges as it transforms from liquid to solid. At room temperature Bi(Bismuth) reacts slowly with Oxygen. Bismuth also reacts with most acids. Bismuth is not an abundant metal on Earth, so bismuth is rather difficult to find. Bi(Bismuth) has one naturally occurring isotope, bismuth-209. Bismuth is harmless to a human body. Bismuth is most useful in various applications when bismuth is combined with other metals.

Applications:
Bismuth is used in the Fire detectors, solders, electric fuses, fire extinguisher (when alloyed with tin or cadmium)
Bismuth is used in cosmetics and paints
Bismuth is used in substitute for lead in many uses(plumbing applications, ceramics, glazes)
Bismuth is used in medications

Carbon Nanotube Threads

Since its discovery, carbon nanotube (CNT) has attracted many interests in different technology fields due to its extraordinary properties. Properties such as, high strength, great electrical and thermal conductivity, light weight and flexibility made CNT one of the best materials for wide range of applications. However, from its name it can be understood that CNT is a nanoscale material which is very small to be applied for the production of daily products. Researchers all around the world are working on finding methods and techniques which could produce new materials with the extraordinary properties of CNT. Image retrieved from:  https://worldindustrialreporter.com/strong-light-flexible-carbon-nanotubes-threads-with-ultrahigh-conductivity/ One of these research is focusing on the production of high strength threads that can be used in the manufacturing of fabrics, cables and ropes. An international group of scientists were able to produce a flexible conductive thread that i

Multi Walled Carbon Nanotube Dispersions

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs)  have attracted enormous attention in recent years due to its unique physical, electronic, optical and potential applications in materials science and nanotechnology. The van der Waals interaction between tubes, however, makes CNTs aggregate in most organic solvents and aqueous solutions, which is the major limitation of their practical applications.Various approaches have been studied to alter the CNT surface to promote the dispersion of individual nanotubes and prevent their reaggregation. On the basis of this widely accepted viewpoint, numerous techniques such as covalent bonding, surfactant coating and polymer wrapping have been developed for surface modification or sidewall functionalization.These methods, however, are complicated, time-consuming and cause permanent damage to the CNT structure and properties of the surface, which produces residues of the dispersion agent for the final product.

Magnesium Oxide Nanoparticles/Nanopowder and Applications

General Information about Magnesium Oxide Magnesium oxide which has the chemical formula of MgO, is a white hygroscopic solid mineral that occurs naturally as periclase and is a source of Magnesium. It is a white powder at room temperature. Magnesium Oxide has very high melting point (2825  o C) and boiling point (3600  o C).                                                                                                                                                                                Magnesium Oxide Nanoparticles/Nanopowder and Usage Areas                                        Magnesium Oxide nanoparticles/nanopowder  can be used in many different areas.
