• Laser zapping ablation of aluminum particles in isopropanol so they are

    From Treon Verdery@21:1/5 to All on Sun Aug 14 01:54:55 2022
    The same technology could be used to make catalyst and catalyst metal shapes 11-20 times smaller. Making them 11-20 times as active per mg or gram. At a vehicle catalytic converter something like a screen door screen grown upward 100-1000-10k nanometers
    tall could use the same amount of catalytic metal as a flat plating on substrate but because of its height presents twice as much surface area to the air/exhaust as a monolayer plating. 1/2 as much metal catalyst can be used, halving the expense of a
    vehicle catalytic converter. Lasers could drill holes in the high fin structures, this increases gas movement and mixing between the high vertical catalyst fins. Tall vented fin catalysts rather than flat coating catalysts makes vehicles $11-449 cheaper
    each.

    Strained and shocked semiconductors have different electron quantum level effects. That suggests strained and shocked catalysts like fuel producing zeolites would produce different reaction yield ratios, and different catalytic abilities and velocities,
    some of which could be beneficial, efficient, and lucrative after screening a library. Sheet laser/THz/microwave scanning, encapsulation and em compression, extreme gigapascals of hydraulic pressure, volumetric raster scanned Sonoluminescence, and
    supercheap use of immersion of zeolites in a tank of water with a shaped charge of cheap nitroexplosive sending a ultra high pressure wave through the watertank are all possible zeolite bulk treatments. I have no idea what the efficiency gains might be,
    but if strain and shock cause 40-60% greater combined zeolite atom tubule roughness, wrinkling, splintering, and cracks between tubes that stuff can flow through, then catalytic effects could increase 40-60%. That would make petrochemicals and plastics
    even more affordable because the tons processed per 24 hours goes up 40-60% for a fixed reactor cost. Energy efficiency goes up and warming process energy per gallon of fuel or plastic/polymer product produced decreases 40-60%. Also, more than one
    different shock/strain treatment can be used to build up a supercatalyst. As one possibility among many, picosecond lasers striking a metal foil produce radiation particles, and lasers ablating FeNi invar alloy can remove .01 nanometers per pulse, that
    is about 1 atom thickness per pulse. Lasers likely do not shine through zeolites, but terahz radiation and microwaves do. Adapt the pulse chirp energy compression of visible laser light that makes super fast femtosecond high joule pulses to THz and
    microwave emitters. Then shock zeolites and other opaque catalysts with them. Something like a scanning slice of light can traverse and shock/strain/modify the entire zeolite chunk.

    I do not know if it would be cheap enough to make but a zeolite aerogel could have 98-99 times more surface area, while conserving the zeolite characteristic of having many minute interconnected hollow tubules. centrifuge or colloid gradient the
    diversely sized powders and nanopowders of zeolite fragment in aerogel blend as it coalesces, then dip it in a color changing, or spectroscopy discernable reaction chemicals you want to promote, then just that area of the technology development zeolite
    aerogel that is most catalytic stands out, from biggest color change or strongest raster scanned spectroscopy product concentration. Then production aerogel zeolites can be made pure (but a blend) from that size of zeolite powder, at an optimal aerogel
    percentage on purpose. Also laser hole drillers making 756 holes simultaneously in less than some amount of time are published. Using grating based microbeam arrays like that to drill fluid transport to the aerogel surface is likely to muliply speed of
    fluid flow through and catalysis many times. Images of petroleum zeolite catalysts at alibaba look like extruded short noodles without a hole. Simply extruding petroleum zeolite catalysts to have a macaroni hole could produce lots more fluid flow. And,
    lasers could be used to put a grid of perforations through the macaroni like shape. Extrusion of synthetic zeolite catalysts suggests that zigzag perimeter medallion or hollow tube asterisks are as easy to make as the nonhollow noodle shape i saw on
    alibaba. Optimistically its possible to triple the surface area per gram with just better noodle extrusion. 8-11% faster preferred reaction product production velocity could occur.

    Wellness technology that might make some people live longer: a 1-3¢ flat rubber wristlet could have color changing liquid pressure sensitive panels on it (like mr myristic or oilies stickers). The liquid crystals directly on the wrist, perhaps 11 mini
    stripes of them that looked groovier than a barcode could turn blue green or pink to show how much pressure they were under. Stripe 1 could turn blue at anthing under 110, then stripes 2 and 3 for 115 and 120, 125, 130 going all the way up to 160.
    Reading it is easy, anything other than three vertical blue stripes means you have high blood pressure and will be weller longer, and longer lived if you take blood pressure reducing medication. People can have a little fun pressing and squeezing the
    color change liquid crystal which are pretty, and people can mention that guy or gal they know with just 2 blue lines, how that's superhealthy, and perhaps that person is an athlete. Doctors could encourage people to get the 1-3¢ wristlet and send the
    medical provider photos of their blue and green lines. And an image recognition phone app could translate an image of the wristlet to an encouraging You're doing fine webpage to a Great options for reducing blood pressure page. This is pretty, squishy,
    slightly fun, and can be shared between people. What amounts to a digital band 1-3¢ sphygnomanometer benefits people in both the developed and developing world. Things that contribute to its cheapness: clear vinyl might be 50-90¢/kg, so a 1/3 ounce 8
    gram wristlet is made with just 4 tenths of a cent of nice feeling clear vinyl. To make the wristlets Molding the vinyl to have 11 hollow tubes in it, at a manufacturing form that is 700 wristlets or more long cuttable from a long form like a paper towel
    tube, that has a single fill up of 11 different liquid crystal pressure sensitive minitube side stripes per 700 wristlets is a technology, then either a laser with a grating makes 1400 simultaneous plastic fusions/welds to produce 700 separate
    sequestrations or plenums of the liquid crystal at the wristlets, or ultrasonic polymer welding is used to do the same thing. Then a cutting blade with computer camera control, or a grating based 700 light sheet slicing laser makes 700 wristlets out of
    the big tube. The liquid crystal mass is about 11 mg with an oil as solvent, at $18/kg the active liquid crystal ingredient is about 2/100ths of a cent per wristlet. As a technology the thing that makes the blue and green tube lines function is that each
    tube of the 11 tubes has sequentially thicker walls for greater rigidity, if the blood pressure is normal only the rigidity of those first two or three tubes can be met or exceeded, and those liquid crystals squeezed to the visual blue form. An estimate
    for ingredient ¢ is .42 cents, less than 1/2 a cent per wristlet. If the wistlets are 1¢ each retail at the developing world then the markup is over 120% making the wristlets highly profitable which gives companies a reason to make them. At the
    developed first world a superdeluxe 3¢ wristlet could be made. The health provider or HMO would encourage people to wear the wristlet for 72 consecitive hours. Vinyl often causes perspiration slickness underneath it. The 3¢ wristlet could have 4-24
    colorimetric antibody tests, very much like a dollar store pregnancy test, and the 72 hour accumulation of under wristlet perspiration has sufficient oomph and cumulative emission of physiochemicals to make 4-24 simultaneous chemical characterizations.
    Comparing 1 minute exposure responsiveness to pee at a pregnancy test to about 4300-4400 minutes at 72 hours of continuous wristlet wearing approximates to compensating for physiochemicals being 1-4K times less concentrated in wristlet perspiration. Each
    of the 4-24 colorimetric dots could be a tenth the size of a pregnancy test colorimetric line, but be visually readable because a 2-7 mm optically magnifying vinyl bump lens makes it look big. If the colorimetric dots are placed on the top of wrist side,
    opposite the blood pressure reading part then a 2-6 bumps per line, 2-6 lines array of colorimetric data can be visible all at the same place making imaging with a phone to reach an interpretive and encouraging webpage easy. Also imaging the top of wrist
    colorimetric array with a phone to send to a healthcare provider midway between periodic well-person visits reduces the delay in finding treatable illness to half that of periodic checkups. During the 20th century this would spot treatable cancer about 6
    months earlier than an annual visit and labwork, improving prognosis and survival. Colorimetric pregnancy tests are one tenth of a cent each at alibaba.com and made-in-China.com, as are some other colorimetric tests. If the colorimetric line chemistry is
    restructured as 4 dots, each testing for something different, then 24 separate dots for tests of different varied things then the full testing array at the wristlet is 6/10ths of one cent. Combining that with the 4.2 tenths of a cent liquid crystal blood
    pressure describer wristlet makes a 1.02 cent wellness, color change fun wristlet that can diagnose/measure 24 different things. If it is 3¢ at the developed world that is about 290% markup profit, providing companies a reason to make and retail the
    multifunction wristlets. A more sophisticated version that tests more things simultaneously with the same number of dots works in whats called a fractional factorial matrix procedure. Instead of one dot going with one chemical, and the webpage looking at
    the image does the math and describes the results. You can view and read the main 23 without imaging the wristlet for interpretation. Its just that if the big side dot changes color then the other 23 tests for notably rarer things that are co-
    simultaneously chemically printed on the same spaces as the main group of 23 are happening. Another approach is to use two colors, blue and fluorescent high visibility yellow. If you see only blue dots on the wristlet only zero-to-some of the most
    frequent health, wellness, and longevity things are going on. If there are solitary fluorescent yellow dots or green dots made up of simultaneous blue and yellow colorimetric colors. Also to make people like it, talk about it, spread it and use it some
    of the 48 (2*24) colorimetric tests and colorimetric protein tests should be for fun, cheerful, shareable things. Noting genes code for proteins the wristlet interpretation can say nice fun myers-briggsish things it finds in the wearer's personality
    genetics including romance, sex, finance, and thrill/calm preferences, intelligence when above median, any say the most popular topics at personal genomics companies Nebula Genomics and 23 and me. Some technologies can heighten the colorimetric
    sensitivity, wearing a wristlet when its warm outside could easily produce an order of magnitude more perspiration. If the way the colorimetric dots wick perspiration is just to have a very cheap array of multibeamed parallel microapertures, lae holes,
    11 per dot its inline with, then a delquescent gel that pulls moistness from its surroundings based on the beauty product NaPCA could be automatically, and with adequate but unfussy manufacturing precision sprayed onto the dermis side of the wristlet
    under the colorimetric dot holes. This causes 2-128 times as much perspiration fluid concentrate to reach the colorimetric dots. At the deluxe developed world version that is 1.9 cents (8/10 of 1¢ more) you can quadruple the mm size of the dot array,
    using big 2-3 mm richly colored dots, and have a little row of 4-8 status glyphs people already know like "check engine light" "hands over crotch(STD)", happyface (proteins of genetics associated with happiness and high light triad psychometric scores,
    as well as fewest gene variations associated with big 5 neuroticism, which is 50% heritable), a baby, a "ZZzz", meaning your body will do better if you get more sleep, a candycane crossed with a lightning bolt:" Diabetes risk", a crustacean crab with a
    blob growing out of its head and a big letter C. A smiley face heart (All is cardiovacularly well), and a frowny heart next to a thermometer with 2-3 obvious segments, the more segments the likelier you are to benefit from cardiovascular disease treating
    drugs and lifestyle changes. Note this presumes there's something to be tested in perspiration. A technology utilizing pee is a different 2011 technology approach. Just pee in a .5¢ cent alibaba plastic cup with a 2D QR barcode on the side of the cup.
    Coloromitretic changes modify the little squares on the barcode, fractional factorial design could test thousands of physiochemicals, notably including the allelic protein variation from genes of interest. Imaging the pee cup with your phone takes you to
    an explanation website. 24 attractively arranged glyphs like happyface, happy heart, check engine light could be right next to the QR code for immediate relief and amusement (Double venus glyph, and a mortarboard, congratulations you are lesbian! And 3
    times more likely to graduate if you go to college). The 20 glyphs could utilize 1-3 cents of colorimetric chemicals, noting 1/10 of 1 cent gets an entire pregnancy test on alibaba. The glyphs can be printed with normal ink with a checkbox next to them,
    a √ checkmark appears in the box when the physiochemicals are detected. It is also possible to concentrate the physiochemicals in the pee cup hundreds or thousands of times for about 1/4 of 1 cent. Acrylamide water absorbing gel (1¢ alibaba full sized
    diaper) with a coating sucks up water but leaves proteins in solution (I think) so about 40 mg of diaper gel on the cup bottom could ultraconcentrate 40-80 ml of pee. The then very high amounts of physiochemicals contribute a lot of added sensitivity and
    months or years earlier diagnosis. This could also be a multi Qr code proteome diagnostic pee cup

    Better photovoltaics. Minimal risk thorium reactors are of value, and may be a much better value than photovoltaics, although photovoltaics have value as well. Some improved photovoltaics that have much to do with decreasing manufacturing and
    installation $, as well as increasing efficiency: unless i'm confused a alibaba 16 cents per 1 watt photovoltaic, if it can produce 60-80% of a watt, half the hours out of each 24, will produce 94000 hours * .5 *.6-.8 watts in 4040 days. Thats sort of
    near 26 kilowatt hours during 11 years. Or an encouraging 7/10 of 1¢ per kilowatt hour from a 16 cent alibaba 1W photovoltaic, if installation, framework, and maintenenance are ignored. One quick and likely easy thing that would improve electrcity
    generation is having automatic painter drones paint a transparent polymer with photon frequency upconversion utilizing quantum dots of IR to PV friendlier visible, specific visible wavelengths to most picked up light colors, and quantum dots that convert
    UV to optimal PV visible. It seems like this technology would increase watts 8-23%. At perhaps 10¢ per M^2 for quantum dot in outdoor transparent 2-4 decade lasting paint. Original Automotive paint lasts about 4 decades, suggesting 4 or more decades of
    durability at quantum dot photovoltaic transparent coating is likely. Notably, gourmet auto paint additives have superhydrophobic and 10 hardeness coatings, these could also be applied to photovoltaic panels at, perhaps, $1 per 11 M^2. Noting that
    rainwater can leave particulates on a photovoltaic (or vehicle) surface, it is plausible that a photovoltaic outer surface/glass could have a polymer coat that includes tethered-to-the-polymer detergent or surfactant workalikes. A Y or T shaped molecule
    attaches to the coating molecularly as a polymer branch, and the top of the Y is a hydrophilic phosphate, and there could be some replacing of hydrogens with chlorine or bromine to cause dirt, and particulates in rainwater to orient towards the
    hyperhydrophilic branch of the Y, then, at the other branch and length of the Y something hydrophobic and lipophilic like an alkane or alkene extends out. The entire purposed effect is to dissolve and solublize various forms of particulates and gunks in
    old dried rainwater whenever it rains strongly, this, if it works, functions like a laundry detergent but the Y omits dissolving because the base is attached to the molecules of transparent photovoltaic paint. Imaginably accumulated films and gunks from
    rainwater and particulates like dust might absorb 9-14% of the light at a photovoltaic that omits any kind of washing maintenance. Tethered Y or T detergent could cause ordinary rain to be strongly cleaning, making it so only 3-4% of the photons get dirt
    and gunk absorbed, 1/3 that of not using a tethered detergent. Also, often negatively charged surfaces attract dust. Either making the glass covering be a positive electret from its method of manufacture, or making the photovoltaic glass' high efficiency
    gain quantum dot transparent autopaintish material be positively charged then reduces dust build up on the photovoltaic glass' surface. Perhaps letting 3-9% more light get to the photovoltaic. Another technology that increases photovoltaic efficiency is
    just to use the superstrong tempered glass associated with phone screens at photovoltaic covering glass, which is likely not only 8 times stronger, but highly affordable as 2002-2021 patents become public domain. At alibaba or made in china.com it says
    photovoltaic glass is only 91% transmissive, and is 2-4 mm thick. Replacing this with 8 times stronger generic phone surface glass just 1/4-1/2 millimeter thick makes the glass 8 times more transmissive to light from thinness alone, causing phone glass
    covered photovoltaics to be 99% transmissive to light, increasing power output 8 %age points. Also, although quantum dot light upconversion and downconversion 4 decade paint is possible, some photovoltaic and photovoltaic panel manufacturers and the
    actual photovoltaic users might prefer to dissolve or embed quantum dots in the new 1/4 mm thick phone glass cover glass material of photovoltaic modules. Engineering either of, or both the glass surface or the actual light facing surface of the
    photovoltaic to have lines of quantum dots that imitate a polarizing linear anisotropy, but instead of absorbing light like a polarizer film does, upconvert (IR) or downconvert (UV) to be highly electricity producing. the hyper-less-transmissive glare
    like polarized components of sunlight or bright clouds light cause the actual photovoltaic surface of the electricity maker to get more light. I have not heard of highly ordered anisotropic swathes of quantum dots used to rotate, refractively couple, or
    direct the path of light traveling through glass, polymer, or other amorphous materials and crystals but it seems possible.
