Dihydrogen monoxide parody oxygen atom. Literally, the term "dihydrogen monoxide" means "two hydrogen, one oxygen", consistent with its molecular formula: the prefix "" in "dihydrogen" means "two", the prefix "" in "monoxide" means "one", and an oxide is an oxygen atom attached to another atom in an ionic compound. Using chemical nomenclature, various names for water are in common use within the scientific community. Some such names include "hydrogen oxide", as well as an alkali name of "hydrogen hydroxide", and several acid names such as "hydric acid", "hydroxic acid", "hydroxyl acid", and "hydroxilic acid". The term "hydroxyl acid" used in the original text
Oxide dispersion-strengthened alloy ODS steel. This process seems simple but many parameters need to be carefully controlled to produce a well made alloy. Work by Leseigneur and coworkers has been done to carefully control some of these parameters in order to get more consistent and better microstructures in ODS steels. In this two step method the oxide is ball-milled for longer periods of time to ensure a homogeneous solid solution of the oxide in the metal matrix. Then the powder is annealed at higher temperatures to begin a controlled nucleation of the nano-oxide clusters. Finally the powder is again compressed and sintered to
