Growth of conical carbon nanotubes by chemical reduction of MgCO3
Article Abstract:
Carbon nanotubes were synthesized by chemical reduction of magnesium carbonate with metallic lithium at 600 degree Celsius. It is suggested that nanoscale rough surface of lithium formed at the interface between supercritical carbon dioxide and liquid lithium takes the roles of both the reductant for reduction of carbon dioxide to carbon and the template for growth of carbon nanotubes.

Nanoscale oxygen generators: MgO2-based fillings of BN nanotubes
Article Abstract:
An MgO2 based material was uniformly filled in Boron nitride (BN) nanotubes, which have only tens of nanometers in diameter and open tip-ends. A nanosize metallic domain oxidation may be effectively produced by localized oxygen outflow.

Interaction between the Lewis acid group of a birate ester and various anion species in a polymer electrolyte containing Mg salt
Article Abstract:
Mg(super 2+) was produced to study interaction between Lewis acid and anion species of salt. Borate ester group interacts strongly on hard anions of CIO4(super -).
