Symmetry-controlled colloidal nanocrystals: Nonhydrolytic chemical synthesis and shape determining parameters

Article Abstract:

The progress on the synthetic development of symmetry-controlled colloidal nanocrystals of semiconductor and metal oxide prepared through nonhydrolytic chemical routes is reported. The shape of the nanocrystal was determined with the help of the crystalline phase of nucleating seeds, surface energy, kinetic vs thermodynamic growth and selective adhesion processes of capping ligands.

Combustion modes and reaction paths of the self-sustained high-temperature synthesis of intermetallic compounds: A computer simulation study of the effect of exothermicity

Article Abstract:

The effect of the thermodynamic aspects of self-sustained high-temperature synthesis (SHS) of intermetallic compounds is investigated by computer simulation using a heterogeneous model. Further, the exothermicity of the process is explored by changing the heat of formation of the solid compound and mixing enthalpy in the liquid phase, while the kinetics is left unmodified.

Examination of the excess thermodynamics properties of n-alkane binary mixtures: A molecular approach

Article Abstract:

A modification of the statistical associating fluid theory, the so-called Soft-SAFT equation of state, is proposed to predict the excess thermodybnamic properties of binary mixtures of n-alkanes. n-Alkanes molecules are modeled as fully flexible Lennard-Jones chains.
