Tungsten Titanium Sputtering Targets and Applications

Tungsten and titanium are metals that can come together to form an alloy. And this alloy can be used in different applications. Today we will focus on the usage of tungsten titanium sputtering targets.
By sputtering targets of tungsten titanium alloys we can obtain thin films. Tungsten titanium thin films were developed as an alternative to titanium-based films, which were considered as protective coatings. Thin films of tungsten titanium with specific structural and other properties can be used in very important fields.
The first area that tungsten titanium sputtering targets can be used is protective materials. Tungsten titanium sputtering targets are used here for the purpose of obtaining anticorrosion and oxidation resistant films.
Tungsten titanium sputtering targets can be also used in microelectronics to obtain diffusion barriers. And tungsten titanium alloys can be also used for gas sensors for the detection of pollutants such as CO, NO2 and SO2.
In addition to high hardness and adhesion, these films should be thermally stable and oxidation resistant. Modifications of the microstructure in the presence of the active element, here in this case is titanium, in tungsten titanium alloys can influence diffusion rates and mechanical properties of the thin films, playing an important role in the oxidation behavior of the material.

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 th...

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. Figure: Single Walled Carbon Nanotube (SWCNT) It ha...
