Abstract:
Provided is a more suitable method for producing ceramic microparticles. The present invention uses at least two types of fluids to be processed; at least one of the fluids to be processed is a fluid containing a ceramic starting material liquid that mixes and/or dissolves a ceramic starting material in a basic solvent; of the fluids aside from the ceramic starting material liquid, at least one of the fluids to be processed is a fluid containing a solvent for precipitating ceramic microparticles; and ceramic microparticles are precipitated by mixing the fluid containing the ceramic starting material liquid and the fluid containing the solvent for precipitating ceramic microparticles within a thin film fluid formed between at least two surfaces (1,2) for processing that are provided facing each other, are able to approach and separate each other, and of which one is able to rotate with respect to the other. Ceramic microparticles having as increased crystallinity are obtained by mixing the fluid containing the precipitated ceramic microparticles precipitate and a fluid containing an acidic substance.
Abstract:
An improved material in the form of rare-earth borate, its precursor(s) and a luminophore made thereof is provided. The material is characterizable as comprising spherical, cubic or parallelepipedal particles having an average particle size not more than 10 &mgr;m, over a narrow particle size distribution (dispersion index not greater than 0.8). The material may comprise a rare earth element having that lacks luminescence in combination with a dopant.
Abstract:
Intermetallic compounds and hydrides thereof, characterized in that they have been prepared by reacting hydrides of the elements of the main groups I, II, III and IV of the Periodic Table, magnesium hydridehalides or magnesium dialkyls having the general formula MgR.sub.2 (R=alkyl) in a solvent with bisallyl metal compounds of the metals of the subgroup VIII of the Periodic Table or of zinc or with the homologues of the bisallyl compounds of said metals, and processes for preparing said compounds.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the reaction of waste gases resulting from the reaction of boron halides with hydrogen by reacting said waste gases at tempertures ranging from 300* to 900* C with borides selected from the group consisting of alkali metals, alkaline earth metals and earth metals.
