Alumina (Al 2 O 3) has excellent mechanical strength, hardness, thermal conductivity, and a high melting point and resistivity. As a result, it can be widely employed as wear-resistant material, ...

Ensuring the purity of boiler feedwater demands the use of highly capable pH electrodes. Power plant cycle chemistry guidelines and standards specify narrow ranges of pH to minimize corrosion of ...

Why fast-response, non-contact temperature sensing is needed in biomedical research. How thin, transparent film is used to create the Seebeck effect to measure temperature. The instrumentation ...

A new study presents a method to record the temperature of materials with exceptional temporal resolution, using a Doppler broadening effect in neutron resonance absorption. Using a high-powered laser ...

Although each power plant has unique features (incoming water, fuel it uses, amount of power it generates, boiler or steam generator type) all of them are prone to corrosion. Low pH levels, dissolved ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract We have developed a way to measure cell surface pH by positioning a pH-sensitive fluorescent dye, seminaphtharhodafluor (SNARF), conjugated to ...

The OCV of the cell is determined by the cell’s state-of-charge (SoC). However, the temperature of the cell is another important factor, as the cell’s OCV will vary with temperature. This effect is ...

OMAHA, Neb. (WOWT) - As an intense heat wave settles in across Nebraska, it’s difficult to determine just how hot it will actually feel like with just the high and low for the day. The wet bulb globe ...
