  • Method of synthesis of a fulleride of metal nano-cluster and material comprising a fulleride of metal nano-cluster
    Patent number: 8734752
    Abstract: A method of synthesis of a fulleride of metal nano-cluster is provided. The method is characterized in mechanically alloying metal nano-clusters with fullerene-type clusters. Fullerene molecules in the fulleride of metal nano-cluster are preserved. The alloying is done by milling in a planetary mill. A material including a fulleride of a metal nano-cluster is also provided.
    Type: Grant

  • THERMOELECTRIC NANOCOMPOSITE, METHOD FOR MAKING THE NANOCOMPOSITE AND APPLICATION OF THE NANOCOMPOSITE
    Publication number: 20110108774
    Abstract: A thermoelectric nanocomposite is formed from homogeneous ceramic nanoparticles formed from at least one kind of tellurium compound. The ceramic nanoparticles have an average particle size from about 5 nm to about 30 nm and particularly to about 10 nm. The ceramic nanoparticles are coated with a particle coating in each case. The particle coating is formed from at least one layer of nanostructured, substantially intact carbon material. The nanocomposite may be formed by providing a precursor powder of homogeneous ceramic nanoparticles with at least one kind of a tellurium compound. A precursor coating of nanostructured, substantially intact carbon material is provided for the precursor nanoparticles. Heat treatment of the precursor powder generates the nanocomposite by conversion of the precursor coating into the particle coating.

  • Superhard carbon material, a method for its production, and articles made therefrom
    Patent number: 6245312
    Abstract: The present invention is concerned with a superhard carbon material having a structure comprising structural elements, in the form of tetrahedrons, with groups of carbon atoms in their apices. It is also concerned with a method for producing the superhard carbon material from fullerite C60, having in its structure structural elements in the form of tetrahedrons, by polymerization of the fullerite C60 until in the structure of the target material the bulk-polymerized structural elements in the form of tetrahedrons are formed containing in their apices groups of carbon atoms. Articles made of the new superhard carbon material are also claimed.
