Abstract:Nb 3 Al nanoparticles were directly synthesized by metallothermic reduction process in the molten salts with mNbCl 5 -nAlCl 3 powders as raw materials and sodium as reducing reagent. The effects of different feeding material orders, soaking time, Nb content in raw materials, and 3NbCl 5 -AlCl 3 content in molten salts on the obtained Nb 3 Al powder were discussed. The as-prepared samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
