Activating the Growth of High Surface Area Alumina Using a Liquid Galinstan Alloy [PDF]

open access: yesACS Omega, 2018
The growth of high surface area alumina has been investigated with the use of a liquid Galinstan alloy [66.5% (wt %) Ga, 20.5% In and 13.0% Sn] as an activator for aluminum. In this process, the aluminum is slowly dissolved into the gallium-indium-tin alloy, which is then selectively oxidized at ambient temperature and pressure under a humid stream of ...

Engineering a Galinstan-based ferromagnetic fluid for heat management

open access: yesEnergy Conversion and Management
The development of increasingly smaller electronic devices brings on heat dissipation challenges, which can severely hinder their performance. Consequently, there is a critical need to maintain the working temperature of these devices at optimal values. At room temperature, the versatile design and adaptability of fluidic thermal switches makes them

Galvanic Replacement of the Liquid Metal Galinstan [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Chemical Society, 2016
The galvanic replacement reaction is a highly versatile approach for the creation of a variety of nanostructured materials. However, the majority of reports are limited to the replacement of metallic nanoparticles or metal surfaces. Here we extend this elegant approach and describe the galvanic replacement of the liquid metal alloy galinstan with Ag ...
