Partially Hydrolysed Aluminium and Zirconium Oxochlorides

Partially hydrolysed aluminium oxochlorides (ACH) and aluminium-zirconium-glycine oxochlorides (AZG) have been encapsulated using lipophilic carboxylic acids from H,O-silicone solvent systems. The encapsulated materials (E-materials) precipitate out of solution in the form of spherical beads. Their particle size varies with agitation conditions. Distributions from a few tenths to a few hundreds...

EXCESS HEAT IN MOLTEN SALTS OF (LiCl − KCl) + (LiD + LiF) AT THE TITANIUM ANODE DURING ELECTROLYSIS

The electrochemical cell and a technique for precision calorimetric measurements has been developed. Experiments with molten salts containing lithium deuteride were carried out. Calorimetric measurements made on the titanium anode during experiments. Measurements were made in an inert atmosphere of helium and in an atmosphere of deuterium at various density of an electrolysis current. Excess he...

Osteoblastic behavior to zirconium coating on Ti-6Al-4V alloy

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to assess the surface characteristics and the biocompatibility of zirconium (Zr) coating on Ti-6Al-4V alloy surface by radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering method. MATERIALS AND METHODS The zirconium films were developed on Ti-6Al-4V discs using RF magnetron sputtering method. Surface profile, surface composition, surface roughness and surface energy...
