Liquid gallium (Ga) spontaneously alloys with thin films of metals such as Ag, Au, Pt Al, and Cu at near or even below room temperature resulting in rapid self-assembly of nanostructures. In this dissertation, studies of the formation of these...
The future of renewable energy technologies involves overcoming difficulties
with the creation of new materials. The use of nanotechnology has allowed for
inexpensive materials to achieve very interesting physical and electronic properties....
The chemical analysis of atmospheric dust is of interest to two major groups, namely—the workers in industrial hygiene and the workers in the air cleaning and ventilating industries. The industrial hygienists, who are concerned with the...
In a printing ink plant, phthalocyanine (Pc) aqueous slurries are produced by grinding the Pc pigment in water using a media mill. Mostly, dispersions of Pc in water are used in heat-set printing inks to make the color phthalo blue. Typically, Pc...
