Thermal means heat. Decomposing is the process of breaking down. Thermal decomposition is a chemical reaction that happens when a compound breaks down when heated. When sodium hydrogencarbonate is ...

Oregon State University scientists have developed a highly efficient, uniquely shaped magnetic nanoparticle that could enable ...

New magnetic nanoparticles in the shape of a cube sandwiched between two pyramids represent a breakthrough for treating ...

Discover the newly developed cobalt-doped iron oxide nanoparticles, improving magnetic hyperthermia treatment for ovarian ...

That said, polymer chains such as those in Plexiglass can be broken via a process of thermal decomposition known as pyrolysis. This involves heating the material to a temperature of at least 400 ...

This is principally caused by thermal decomposition of bi-carbonate ions but also happens to some extent even in the absence ...

To make concrete, limestone, or calcium carbonate, is mixed with clay and other materials and then calcined at high temperatures, so CO2 is released via the thermal decomposition of calcium carbonate.
