What to buy Carbon Nanotubes! How much?

What to buy Carbon Nanotubes! How much?



Author(s)  : Muhammad Musaddique Ali Rafique, Javed Iqbal

Gone are the days when Carbon Nanotubes were not available in abundance.

Now unique catalysts and advanced chemical engineering processes have made it possible to produce carbon nanotubes in large quantities. Unique process (CoMOCat®) for the large scale catalytic chemical vapor deposition of carbon nanotubes is now producing carbon nanotubes in large quantities.

In Muhammad Musaddique Ali Rafique’ research review from Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering at University of Engineering and Technology, published in Journal of Encapsulation and Adsorption SciencesVol. 1 No. 2, 2011 Scientific Research Publishing. His team reviewed production processes for producing carbon nanotunes. Physical Vapor depositions, Chemical Vapor deposition have been reviwed in extensive detail and a unique process named catalytic chemical vapor deposition has been found to be a large scale process for mass production of single wall carbon nanotubes. Owing to its high production rate, high yield, high purity, no post treatment, continuous nature, cheap raw material usage and low per unit cost this process by bar outperforms its competitive. Based on this technology an Oklahoma based company South West Nanotechnologies, SWeNT is already producing carbon nanotubes on large scale.

Now, there is no need to worry about readymade supply of carbon nanotubes. They are not only available for laboratory needs but also available for large scale usages such as in composites, thermal application, sensors etc.

Electron Spin and Proton Spin in the Hydrogen and Hydrogen-Like Atomic Systems

Read full paper at: http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=52202#.VIj7tMnQrzE Author(s) Stanisław Olszewski * Affiliation(s) Institute of Physical Chemistry, Polish Academy of Sciences, Warsaw, Poland . ABSTRACT The mechanical angular momentum and magnetic moment of the electron and proton spin have been calculated semiclassically with the aid of the uncertainty principle for energy and time. The spin effects of both kinds of the elementary particles can be expressed in terms of similar formulae. The quantization of the spin motion has been done on the basis of the old quantum theory. It gives a quantum number n = 1/2 as the index of the spin state acceptable for both the electron and proton ...

ABSTRACT This paper is motivated by the concept of the signed k-domination problem and dedicated to the complexity of the problem on graphs. For any fixed nonnegative integer k, we show that the signed k-domination problem is NP-complete for doubly chordal graphs. For strongly chordal graphs and distance-hereditary graphs, we show that the signed k-domination problem can be solved in polynomial time. We also show that the problem is linear-time solvable for trees, interval graphs, and chord...
