Few-step synthesis, thermal purification and structural characterization of porous boron nitride nanoplatelets
(2016)
Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) nanoplatelets with 99 wt.% purity, 900 to 2000 nm particle width, 30 to 90 nm particle thickness, 213 m2/g specific surface area (SSA), 66% micropore SSA and 0.85 nm average pore size were ...
Few-layer graphene-like flakes derived by plasma treatment: A potential material for hydrogen adsorption and storage
(2016)
A novel, one-step, wet-free, environmental friendly and high-yield method for producing few-layer graphene powders with large surface areas (up to 800 m2/g) and narrow nanopore sizes (0.7-0.8 nm) using plasma-induced ...
Structural features of ball-milled nanostructured K2Bi 8Se13 thermoelectric material
(2011)
In this work, K2Bi8Se13 material was ball-milled in order to develop nanostructures through the modification of structural features. Structural changes during ball-milling were followed by powder X-ray diffraction measurements, ...
Effect of Cu content on the tribological performance of Cr-N coatings at high temperatures (840°C)

Cr-N and Cu-Cr-N coatings with Cu content between 3-65 at.%, Cu/Cr ratios in the 0.04-4.5 range and 21-27 at.% N, synthesized by twin e-beam Physical Vapor Deposition (EBPVD) at 450°C, were investigated. Using X-ray ...
Room temperature synthesis and high temperature frictional study of silver vanadate nanorods
(2010)
We report the room temperature (RT) synthesis of silver vanadate nanorods (consisting of mainly β-AgVO3) by a simple wet chemical route and their frictional study at high temperatures (HT). The sudden mixing of ammonium ...
Solvothermal synthesis, nanostructural characterization and gas cryo-adsorption studies in a metal–organic framework (IRMOF-1) material
(2017)
A nanoporous metal–organic framework material, exhibiting an IRMOF-1 type crystalline structure, was prepared by following a direct solvothermal synthesis approach, using zinc nitrate and terephthalic acid as precursors ...
