Silicon is, after oxygen, the most abundant element of the ... the transformation of a crude metallic silicon to chlorosilanes (compounds containing silicon–chlorine bonds).

They analyzed, in particular, how to regulate the discharge of oxygen from the quartz crucible into the silicon melt during the silicon growth phase in a Czochralski (CZ) puller, which is commonly ...

Boron carbide powders and compounds are available in multiple abrasive grit size choices from F10/30 to F1500 and are suitable for the precision lapping and polishing of many engineering materials.

Most organic compounds contain carbon and hydrogen, but they may also include any number of other elements (e.g., nitrogen, oxygen, halogens, phosphorus, silicon, sulfur). Originally limited to the ...

A team of entomologists and botanists at the International Center of Insect Physiology and Ecology in Nairobi and the University of Pretoria has found that adding silicon to soil can help tomato ...

In new research published in Environmental Progress & Sustainable Energy, investigators have identified low-cost adsorbents for siloxane removal from landfill gas. The research highlights the ...

The body’s tissues need oxygen to function. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy in a medical-grade, FDA-approved chamber allows you to breathe pure oxygen—as opposed to everyday air, which is mostly ...
