Congratulations:

                      for Great Eid Adha

 

Adam^(PBUH)constructed the original Kaaba, which was demolished by the Great Flood at the time of Noah^(PBUH). Abraham and Ismael^(PBUT)rebuilt the Kaaba on the old foundations. The rites were instituted by Abraham^(PBUH)as a way of obtaining perfection.

Abraham and Ismael^(PBUT): "Our Lord! Accept from us; surely You are the Hearing, the Knowing.   Our Lord! Make us both submissive to You and raise from our off-spring a nation submitting to You and show us ways of devotion and turn to us mercifully.  You are the oft-Returning to mercy, the Most Merciful."

Na₃MnCO₃PO₄(NMCP)/reduced graphene oxide (rGO) nanocomposite was synthesized by one-step hydrothermal method. The produced 25 nm NMCP nanoparticles were randomly distributed on rGO sheets. As a promising cathode material for Na-ion batteries, the hybrids deliver gravimetric discharge capacities of 98.3 mAh per gram of electrode (156.0 mAh per gram of NMCP) and 114.0 mAh per gram of electrode (180.9 mAh per gram of NMCP) at C/30 and C/100 rates, respectively.

In-situ synthesis of porous g-C₃N₄/SnO₂ catalyst by fast microwave-assisted method was done. Sn derivatives in the condensation step triggered simple pyrolysis of urea to C₃N₄. The visible-light catalyst had high potential for clean energy production.

NiCoCrAlY/CoNiCrAlY Coatings:

NiCoCrAlY coating is more resistant to 1000°C air-oxidation than CoNiCrAlY. The main protecting phase on NiCoCrAlY is α-Alumina. Oxidation of CoNiCrAlY initially is sub-parabolic; while finally parabolic.

Recent Article:

Foamy nanocatalysts of Ni-Pd-CNT were synthesized by electroless deposition method. BET results indicated specific surface areas as high as 611.3 m²/g for Ni-Pd-CNTs. TPR and TPO activation energies reduced with addition of Pd-CNT to the Ni foam. At 850 °C, Ni-Pd-0.1CNT nanocatalyst increased methane conversion rate up to 85 %. Ni-Pd-0.1CNT resulted in 22% higher methane conversion than Ni-MgO catalyst.
