Abstract The occurrence of crystallized and glassy melt inclusions (MI) in high‐grade, partially melted metapelites metagraywackes has opened up new possibilities to investigate anatectic processes. present study focuses on three case studies: khondalites from the Kerala Khondalite Belt (India), Ronda migmatites (Spain), Barun Gneiss (Nepal Himalaya). results a detailed microstructural investigation are reported, along with some microchemical data bulk composition MI. These were trapped...
A sensitive and fast-responding membrane-free amperometric gas sensor is described, consisting of a small filter paper foil soaked with room temperature ionic liquid (RTIL), upon which three electrodes are screen printed carbon ink, using suitable mask. It takes advantage the high electrical conductivity negligible vapour pressure RTILs as well their easy immobilization into porous inexpensive supporting material such paper. Moreover, thanks to careful control preparation procedure, very...
Thermoelectric materials can convert heat into electricity when a temperature gradient is present. The investigation of conductive polymers such as polyaniline (PANI) and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) active for thermoelectric generators in the room range gaining interest because several key advantages offered by these materials. relative ease solution processing, their mechanical stability flexibility together with low density thermal conductivity make suitable integration generator....
Some metals belonging to groups IV and V show a high permeability hydrogen have been studied as possible alternatives palladium in membranes for purification/separation order increase their sustainability decrease costs. However, date, very few alloys among those investigated, no membrane studies based on 4-5 element with low or zero Pd content quasi-amorphous structure reported so far. In this work, new ZrVTi- ZrVTiPd were tested the first time application. The unprecedented deposition of...
With the aim of preparing stable nanofluids for heat exchange applications and to study effect surfactant on aggregation nanoparticles thermal diffusivity, silver colloids were synthesized in water by a green method, reducing AgNO3 with fructose presence poly-vinylpyrollidone (PVP) various molecular weights. A nanopowder was precipitated from re-dispersed at 4 vol% deionized water. The Ag characterized UV–visible spectroscopy, combined dynamic light scattering ζ-potential measurements, laser...
Room-temperature results of cathodoluminescence (CL) spectroscopy investigations are presented for nanostructured titanium dioxide (anatase) thin films (500 nm thick) deposited via RF magnetron sputtering on high-purity silica substrates. The collected CL bands the anatase films, as and after different annealing cycles, showed a broad morphology consisting three Voigtian located at 500, 550, 610 that were partially overlapping. overall emission increased with increasing temperature time...
Dense Sb-doped Mg<sub>2</sub>Si materials were obtained with a cheap and fast process. An extensive characterization was carried out to study the effects of Sb doping other secondary phases on stability functional properties n-type Mg<sub>2</sub>Si<sub>1−x</sub>Sb<italic>x</italic>.
