Molybdenum Disilicide Sputtering Targets and Applications

Molybdenum Disilicide (MoSi2) Sputtering Targets (Size:2'' ,Thickness:0.250'' , Purity: 99.95%) which has the chemical formula of MoSiis a refractory ceramic with primary use in heating elements. It has moderate density and is electrically conductive. At high temperatures it forms a passivation layer of silicon dioxide, protecting it from further oxidation. It is insoluble in most acids but soluble in nitric acid and hydrofluoric acid.

Molybdenum Disilicide (MoSi2) Sputtering Targets is a promising candidate material for high temperature structural applications. It is a high melting point (2030 °C) material with excellent oxidation resistance. However, low toughness at low temperatures and high creep rates at elevated temperatures have hindered its commercialization in structural applications. Molybdenum disilicide-based heating elements have been used extensively in high-temperature furnaces. The low electrical resistance of silicides in combination with high thermal stability, electronmigration resistance, and excellent diffusion-barrier characteristics is important for microelectronic applications. Projected applications of MoSi2-based materials include turbine airfoils, combustion chamber components in oxidizing environments, missile nozzles, molten metal lances, industrial gas burners, diesel engine glow plugs, and materials for glass processing.
Molybdenum Disilicide (MoSi2) Sputtering Targets has emerged as one of the leading intermetallics for use at elevated temperatures. With the objective of developing an oxidation resistant coating system for high temperature applications (up to 1600°C), molybdenum disilicide is one of the compounds which has been studied on.
Molybdenum disilicide also can be used as a heating element in laboratory and industry. Also molybdenum disilicide sputtering targets can be used for protective coating on tantalum and niobium alloys.

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.

Graphene Oxide Dispersion

Graphene oxide refers to a mono-atomic layer material obtained when graphite crystals are oxidized. This is one of the graphene materials that are commercially available because of  its ability to dissolve in water  which makes the oxidation process suitable. In this article, we will talk about the  synthesis, the properties and some of the applications of graphene oxide dispersion in water . Seven Properties of Graphene Oxide Dispersion The properties of a material are defined through its structure, however, this material is very peculiar, since there is no unambiguous model of this material. Graphene Oxide dispersion offers remarkable physical, chemical and mechanical properties that give the opportunity to new applications. Graphene Oxide is amorphous , but, in general, graphene oxide can be described as a two-dimensional sheet containing honeycomb carbon atoms with functional groups of hydroxide and oxygen, unlike the graphene model that seeks to completely re...
