In the UK, more than 100 schools were closed because of the danger of collapse In the UK, many schools use Autoclaved aerated cement (RAAC). This is a concrete material that is lighter. In 2018, the roof of a school in southeast England fell dow…
The water-reducing agent should be used with concrete admixture, which will reflect the water-reducing effect. Cement quality is therefore a direct factor of the actual effect of water-reducing agent. When dealing with different "problem" types of ce…
Anode materials for lithium batteries Materials that store and release Lithium ions are an essential part of the lithium battery. The anode material is responsible for accepting the lithium ions released by the positive battery electrode during char…
Spherical tungsten powder has many applications. The spherical powder of tungsten is widely used as a powder metalurgical material in many industries. Following are the main areas where spherical-tungsten powder is used: Hard alloy manufacturing…
What are surfactants, and how do they work? Surfactants belong to a class that reduces surface tension. They can be adsorbed onto gas-liquid or fluid-liquid interfaces and change the properties, such as stability, wettability (wettability), viscosity…
Nanowires to replace infrared first Due to the rapid growth of the display industry, as well the high cost and shortage of ITO films and indium, the industry has looked for alternatives, such as nanowires. Silver nanowires, among other alternatives,…
What metal is more resistant to heat than tungsten? Among all metal elements, tungsten's melting point is the highest, at 3,422. (Boiling point: 5,930). No metal element is higher in melting point than the tungsten. Tungsten is the element 74 in…
As a typical material with two dimensions, graphene is widely used and highly sought-after by both industry and the scientific community. What exactly is a 2-dimensional material? Simple, two-dimensional material is a non-nanoscale material (1-100nm)…
The titanium hydride used in powder metallurgy and metal-ceramic sealing is also used to provide titanium for the alloy powder. Titanium Hydride is very fragile and can be used for powdered titanium. The hydride is also used to weld. Thermal decom…
Boron carbide is also known as black Diamond. It has a molecular formula of B4C. The powder is typically grayish. It is one the three hardest materials known (the other two being diamond and cubic boronnitride), which are used in many industrial appl…
In recent years, transition metal dichalcogenide was one of the key two-dimensional materials for quantum functional applications. These materials have a honeycomb like graphene but have spin-orbit coupling that allows them to exhibit novel propertie…
What is Hafnium Carbide and Tantalum Carbide? Tantalum carbide is a brown powdered metal cubic crystal belonging to the sodium-chloride cubic system. The tantalum carbide used today is a sintered cemented carbide grain growth inhibitor. This has an i…
Solvable in hot and general solvents. Good emulsification properties, good dispersibility and wettability. MS-1 Alkylphenol Sulfosuccinate, Sodium Salt MS-1 Alkylphenol Sulfosuccinate Salt has the following characteristics: rich and fine foam; low…
U.S. natural gas futures rose about 5 percent to a near nine-week high as global energy prices surged on concerns over a pricing plan for energy exports, keeping U.S. LNG export demand near record highs. U.S. natural gas prices have risen despite for…
Foamed concrete is also called foamed cement, lightweight concrete, etc. Foamed concrete is a concrete product formed by introducing air or nitrogen, carbon dioxide, oxygen and other gases into the concrete slurry with a large number of small closed…
