Abstract:
Methods of removing oxygen from a metal are described. In one example, a method (100) can include forming a mixture (110) including a metal, a calcium de-oxygenation agent, and a salt. The mixture can be heated (120) at a de-oxygenation temperature for a period of time to reduce an oxygen content of the metal, thus forming a de-oxygenated metal. The de-oxygenation temperature can be above a melting point of the salt and below a melting point of the calcium de-oxygenation agent. The de-oxygenated metal can then be cooled (130). The de-oxygenated metal can then be leached with water and acid to remove by-products and obtain a product (140).
Abstract:
A three-dimensional metallic foam is fabricated with an active oxide material for use as an anode for lithium batteries. The porous metal foam, which can be fabricated by a freeze-casting process, is used as the anode current collector of the lithium battery. The porous metal foam can be heat-treated to form an active oxide material to form on the surface of the metal foam. The oxide material acts as the three-dimensional active material that reacts with lithium ions during charging and discharging.
Abstract:
A method for removing a surfactant from a palladium nanoparticle includes exposing the palladium nanoparticle to hydrogen and removing the surfactant from the palladium nanoparticle. A method includes synthesizing a palladium nanoparticle using a surfactant. The surfactant influences a geometric property of the palladium nanoparticle and bonds to the palladium nanoparticle. The method also includes exposing the palladium nanoparticle to hydrogen to remove the surfactant from the palladium nanoparticle.
Abstract:
The disclosure describes a method of producing iron nitride magnets using Zn-doped iron oxide precursors. The iron oxide precursors are reduced and nitrided to produce a powder containing iron nitride in the Fe16N2 phase. The inclusion of Zn in the iron oxide precursor enhances the magnetic properties of the iron nitride powder.
Abstract:
A heat dissipation substrate having a metallic layer with few defects on its surface is obtained by a process including the steps of: forming a metallic layer by plating on the surface of an alloy composite mainly composed of a powder of a principal metal, additional metal and diamond; and heating and pressurizing alloy composite coated with metallic layer, at a temperature equal to or lower than melting points of the metallic layer and the alloy composite. Consequently a heat dissipation substrate is obtained which has a coefficient of linear expansion of 6.5 ppm/K or higher and 15 ppm/K or lower as well as a degree of thermal conductivity of 420 W/m·K or higher, the substrate having a metallic layer with few defects in its surface layer and thereby allowing for a Ni-based plating on which the void percentage in the solder joint will be 5% or lower.
Abstract:
A method for fabricating a metal-ceramic composite article includes a) depositing at least one layer of a powdered material onto a target surface, where the powdered material includes at least one metal and an energy-beam responsive ceramic precursor, and b) densifying the at least one metal and chemically converting at least a portion of the energy-beam responsive ceramic precursor to a ceramic material to form a densified layer by directing an energy-beam onto the at least one layer.
