A catalyst with two cobalt components potentially opens the way to sustainable processes for manufacturing light olefins — key ingredients for making plastics and detergents. Yet the versatility of ...

P20 steel, which is mainly used in plastic molds, was thermochemically treated by ion plasma nitriding and solid and gas carburization. In this work, the solid and gas carburization were performed at ...

The evolution of carburization (depicted by the spheres) under kinetic control (illustrated by the surface contours). The molecular beams represent gas evolution under synthesis conditions while the ...

Wrought austenitic stainless steels are widely used in high temperature applications. This short review discusses initially the processing of this class of steels, with emphasis on solidification and ...

Scientific American is part of Springer Nature, which owns or has commercial relations with thousands of scientific publications (many of them can be found at www ...

Case hardening is a metallurgical technique that increases the hardness of the surface of a component to a certain, calculable depth. This provides a hard-working surface but allows the interior of ...

Scientists have created a Mo carbide catalyst that transforms CO 2 conversion processes with its high efficiency and stability, leveraging a novel carbon cycle pathway for enhanced performance. Credit ...

Molybdenum (Mo) carbides, known for their unique electronic and structural properties, are considered promising alternatives to noble metal catalysts in heterogeneous catalysis. However, traditional ...
