Bismuth Sodium Titanate Based Materials for Piezoelectric Actuators

The ban of lead in many electronic products and the expectation that, sooner or later, this ban will include the currently exempt piezoelectric ceramics based on Lead-Zirconate-Titanate has motivated many research groups to look for lead-free substitutes. After a short overview on different classes of lead-free piezoelectric ceramics with large strain, this review will focus on Bismuth-Sodium-T...

Hydrothermal Synthesis of Sodium and Potassium Bismuth Titanates

A thermodynamic model of electrolyte solutions has been used as a tool for equilibrium calculations in the Na-Bi-Ti-H2O and K-Bi-Ti-H2O systems. To perform the calculations, unknown standard-state properties for Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 (NBT), K0.5Bi0.5TiO3 (KBT) and other solid compounds that exist in these systems were established. As a result of the calculations, stability and yield diagrams of the in...

Nephrotic syndrome following sodium bismuth tartrate therapy in rheumatoid arthritis.

Parenteral therapy with sodium bismuth tartrate has now been undertaken in rheumatoid arthritis for some time. This salt, according to Martindale (Vol. 2, 1943), is a white powder or yellowish scale preparation containing 35-42 per cent. bismuth. Its general safety can be deduced from the report of Goodman (1948) that almost X ton, representing more than lI million adult doses, had been adminis...

Structural variations in bimetallic sodium-magnesium and sodium-zinc ketimides, and a sodium-zinc alkide-alkoxide-amide: connections to ring-stacking, ring-laddering, and inverse crown concepts.

The first sodium-magnesium and sodium-zinc ketimido complexes display contrasting inverse crown ring and pseudo-cubane structures respectively, while a sodium-zinc heterotrianionic alkide-alkoxide-amide adopts a third type of structure with a stepped ladder motif.
