Partially Hydrolysed Aluminium and Zirconium Oxochlorides

چکیده

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 of micrometres are easily produced. ESCA sputtering experiments and elemental analysis indicate that the beads are composed of a water-soluble ACH or AZG inner core that is surrounded by a thin lipophilic shell a few angstroms in thickness. We believe that the encapsulant is held around the core via hydrogen bonding and coulombic interactions. Atomic absorption spectrometry was used to measure the release rates of ACH and AZG from the E-materials in ethanol-water systems. The release rates are affected by the amount of H20 in the mixed solvents, the type of encapsulant, and the particle size of the beads.

Gellability zone for aluminium alkoxides

Ethyl acetoacetate modi®ed aluminium sec-butoxide can be hydrolysed and gelled with alkaline, neutral or acidic media within a pH range of 3.0±8.5. Alumina precipitation occurs if pH values at any point in the sol±gel transition are outside this range. Nine di€erent gelling agents have been evaluated for pH dependence of gel point. Based on stoichiometric considerations, only those systems with...

TEM Investigation of Precipitation in Al-Mn Alloys with Addition of Zr

Aluminium and its alloys belong to the most widely used metallic materials for industrial applications. One of the possible casting methods is twin-roll casting which produces sheets with high solid solution supersaturation. Decomposition of this supersaturated material during heat treatment was studied in aluminium alloys from the AW-3003 series – one standard grade and the other modified by a...

The use of ceramic drills on a zirconium oxide basis in bone preparation.

The favourable mechanical properties and high biocompatibility of the newly developed mixed ceramics composed of zirconium oxide and aluminium oxide have continuously extended the scope of their application. Rotating instruments on a zirconium oxide basis are regarded as superior to metal burs in dentoalveolar surgery in terms of favourable temperature effects on the surrounding bone tissue and...
