The results obtained reflect the determination of the possibility of the stability enhancement of the strength and thermal parameters of zirconium-containing ceramic materials via the addition of a stabilizing additive in the form of Y2O3. According to the data obtained, a connection between phase transformations caused by the addition of the stabilizing Y2O3 additive and an ...

Interest in BeO ceramics as structural materials for new generation reactors, despite the fairly active research of this type of ceramics previously, is primarily due to the combination of their thermophysical, strength and mechanical properties, as well as a low neutron capture cross-section, which allows them to be considered as one of the most promising materials for the ...

In a biological medium, nanoparticles (NPs) can spontaneously interact with proteins, adsorb onto their surface, and cause conformational and orientation changes of the proteins. As a result, the protein function is influenced in a complex manner. Therefore, a detailed understanding of the nature and specificity of protein− nanoparticle interactions is crucial for the ...

The paper presents the results of the influence of heavy ion irradiation on the formation of anisotropic distortions of the crystal structure and electron density distribution in SiC ceramics. The assessment of the change in the properties of the damaged layer was carried out using Raman spectroscopy methods, and using data on structural changes obtained using the X-ray ...
