Titanium silicate minerals encompass a diverse class of compounds in which titanium occupies coordination environments that can functionally substitute for silicon in the silicate framework. The ...

Bombarding a crystal with neutrons reveals a quantum quirk that frustrates heat transfer. The crystalline solid BaTiS 3 (barium titanium sulfide) is terrible at conducting heat, and it turns out that ...

A new article investigates the surface of titanium dioxide crystals. An article in Physical Review Letters, which was written by a group of researchers led by Qinggao Wang from MIPT's Laboratory of ...

STAMFORD — Chemicals and minerals maker Tronox has completed its $1.7 billion acquisition of the titanium dioxide business of Saudi Arabian firm Cristal, after settling a 16-month legal dispute with ...

ACCORDING to the theory of Burton, Cabrera and Frank 1, crystals can only grow at supersaturations too low for two-dimensional nucleation, when dislocations are present. Where a screw dislocation ...
