Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a class of crystalline porous materials built from positively charged metal centers, known as secondary building units (SBUs), linked together by organic molecules called linkers. The arrangement of SBUs and linkers creates a regular network of nanoscale pores, and because both the metal and the linker can be swapped out almost independently, chemists can dial in the pore size, shape, and surface chemistry of a MOF far more precisely than is possible with olde …

Nowadays, oxidation reactions play a substantial role in modern chemistry as well as chemical industry. Around 30% of total production in the chemical industry is carried out by the oxidation process. It means that after polymerization, oxidation is the largest process in the production of chemicals. In the last few decades, transition metal oxides have attracted the research community in great deal due to their diversified applications. Among them, molybdenum oxide has been found to …

Shape memory alloys are metallic materials that can revert to their original shape after a mechanical or thermal effect. Because of their unique ability shape memory alloys are utilized by various different industries.With the rapid technological improvements and resulted demands, material science has gained excellent importance over the years. Constructing novel, intelligent materials attracted the attention of many research groups. Shape memory alloys (SMAs) are one of these smart mater …

Copper is a chemical element having a symbol as Cu and atomic number 29. Pure copper is rather soft, malleable, and has on its surface a fresh dew peach hue. It is a ductile metal with particularly high electrical and thermal conductivity which gives it various uses. It is also used as a building material and is used in the composition of many alloys. Copper and its alloys have been used by man for thousands of years, the oldest traces of copper smelting in wind ovens having been discovere …

Silicon carbide nanoparticles have wide applications in field emission displays and light emitting devices. Moreover, nanoscale silicon carbide is used in designing and manufacturing electro-devices in nanoscale, nanosensors and biological labels. Bulky silicon carbide (SiC) is knownas a refractory agent and semiconductor with excellent thermal, mechanical and chemical behavior. The melting point of this non-oxide ceramic is above 2800 °C, perfectly resistant against corrosion with lo …
