Fiber Strength Retention of Lanthanum- and Cerium Monazite-Coated NextelÔ 720

JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN CERAMIC SOCIETY, Issue 2 2004
Emmanuel E. Boakye
NextelÔ 720 fibers were coated with LaPO4 and CePO4 monazite. The coatings were applied using washed and unwashed rhabdophane sols derived from La(NO3)3/(NH4)2HPO4 and a washed sol derived from Ce(NO3)3/H3PO4. The coatings were cured in-line at 900°,1300°C. Multiple coatings were also applied. Fiber strength was retained after coating with washed sols, but not with unwashed sols. These results are consistent with earlier work on LaPO4 monazite fiber coatings derived from La(NO3)3/H3PO4. [source]


Calcium Phosphate Bioceramics with Various Porosities and Dissolution Rates

Porous bioceramics, such as hydroxyapatite (HA), tricalcium phosphate (TCP), and biphasic HA/TCP, were fabricated using the polyurethane sponge technique. The porosity of the ceramics was controlled by a multiple coating of the porous body. When a porous body was produced by a single coating, the porosity was ,90%, and the pores were completely interconnected. When the sintered body was coated five times after the porous network had been made, the porosity decreased to 65%. As the porosity decreased, the strength increased exponentially. The TCP exhibited the highest dissolution rate in a Ringer's solution, and the HA had the lowest rate. The biphasic HA/TCP showed an intermediate dissolution rate. [source]

Potassium lithium niobate (KLN) films, which were prepared using an aqueous precursor solution, were characterized in terms of crystallinity, morphology, and electrical properties; 1.0 ,m thick KLN films free from cracks and pores could be prepared on MgO(100), Pt(100)/MgO(100), and Pt(111)/Ti/SiO2/Si substrates by multiple coating and heating at 700°C. The films were composed of compact grains and had sintered textures. The films crystallized with (310) and (540) preferred orientations on MgO(100) and Pt(100)/MgO(100) substrates. The KLN film prepared on Pt(100)/MgO(100) substrate had ,,= 136 and tan ,= 0.026 at 1 kHz. [source]


ZnO nanowires: chemical growth, electrodeposition, and application to intracellular nano-sensors

PHYSICA STATUS SOLIDI (C) - CURRENT TOPICS IN SOLID STATE PHYSICS, Issue 9 2008
M. Willander
Abstract In this paper we present our results on growth, characterization, and nano-devices based on ZnO nano-structures. The ZnO nano-structures were grown by mainly two methods, the catalytic Vapor Liquid Solid (VLS) and the low temperature chemical growth. We show that by multiple coating combined with low temperature chemical growth, well aligned with size controlled ZnO nanowires on silicon substrates can be achieved. The dissolution, due to its important on the stability of ZnO nano-structures in aqueous medium, is then discussed and some preliminary experimental results are shown. Basic Optical characteristics of ZnO nano-rods are briefly discussed. Finally, electrochemical intracellular nano-sensors based on ZnO nano-wires are demonstrated as efficient nano-sensors for monitoring the human cell activity with minute pH changes.

Novel repair method for technical enamels based on sol,gel and sol-dispersion coatings,

MATERIALS AND CORROSION/WERKSTOFFE UND KORROSION, Issue 2 2008
S. Benfer
The aim of the work presented here is the development of a novel repair method for technical enamels by using chemical nanotechnology. Good adhesion of coatings requires good wettability of the substrate by the repair solution. This was achieved by different pre-treatments of the steel substrates. Low sintering temperatures of the coatings can be ensured by the use of nanoparticle-based systems. Based on liquid metal alkoxides, a colloidal alumina sol and metal salts homogeneous sols with up to seven enamel compounds were prepared. The sols were brush coated onto plain and partly enamelled steel substrates and sintered in a furnace, by inductive heating or an IR emitter. Thin (single layer,,,1µm) crack-free layers were obtained on nearly all substrates independent of the sintering conditions investigated. The local sintering methods (IR emitter, inductive heating) allow to produce multiple coating systems in short times. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) provides evidence of the protective effect of these layers compared to the bare substrate, but as a result of their chemical composition the layers are not stable in the electrolytic environment for longer times. The thickness of such multiple coatings (20 layers, ,,8 µm) is still small compared to that of a technical enamel. Therefore, sol dispersion systems containing powder particles and sol components are applied on top of the sol,gel layers to increase the thickness of the sintered layers. [source]
