Synthesis of Carbon Quantum Dots The synthesis of carbon quantum dots can be mainly divided into two categories: top-down method and bottom-up method. Through the pre-treatment, preparation, and subsequent processing, carbon quantum dots can be controlled in size, passivated on the surface, doped with heteroatoms, and nanocomposites to meet the requirements. Top-down approach Top down method: lase...

In recent years, there has been a trend of oil-based lubricants being replaced by water-based lubricants. Boron nitride coatings are often used in forging nickel based alloys, high melting point alloys, and titanium machined parts, which not only provide lubrication but also prevent workpiece oxidation. Characteristics that forging lubricants should possess 1. Evenly moisten the surface to prevent...

The specific surface area of a powder is an important physical property, which refers to the total surface area (in square meters) of an oxide powder per unit mass (in grams). The size of the specific surface area is related to factors such as particle size, shape, and porosity of the powder. Generally speaking, the smaller the particles and the higher the porosity, the larger the specific surface...
