K Kushita et al.
Radioisotopes, 34(1), 1-6 (1985-01-01)
Tritium standard gas for calibrating radioactivity detectors was prepared by the use of tritiated methane synthesized by the reaction of tritiated water with aluminum carbide at ca. 470 degrees C. A long-path proportional counter was used to standardize the radioactivity
Y Sun et al.
Nanoscale, 3(7), 2978-2982 (2011-06-21)
As a kind of ionic (or salt-like) carbide, Al(4)C(3) hardly any active functions have been found except for structure material purposes. However, considering the unique characteristic features of its crystal structure, we think Al(4)C(3) in fact might have huge potential
