Optical and FTIR spectroscopy was employed to study the properties of 80GeS2-20Ga2S3-CsCl chalcohalide glasses with CsCl additives in a temperature range of 77-293 K. It is shown that CsCl content results in the shift of fundamental absorption edge in the visible region. Vibrational bands in FTIR spectra of (80GeS2-20Ga2S3)100 - х (СsCl) x (x = 5, 10, and 15) are identified near 2500 cm(-1), 37...

The effects of various additives on the physical properties of an amorphous sugar matrix were compared. Amorphous, sugar-additive mixtures were prepared by freeze-drying and then rehumidified at given RHs. Sucrose and eighteen types of substances were used as the sugar and the additive, respectively, and water sorption, glass-to-rubber transition, and protein stabilization during freeze-drying ...

A porous ZnO/ZnMoO 4 heterostructure is prepared by a hybrid zeolitic imidazolate framework-derived oxidation method for alkaline water electrolysis.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Uncooked meat and poultry products are commonly enhanced by food processors using phosphate salts. The addition of potassium and phosphorus to these foods has been recognized but not quantified. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS We measured the phosphorus, potassium, and protein content of 36 uncooked meat and poultry products: Phosphorus using the Associ...

Feed additives used to supplement dairy rations can increase daily feed cost from 2 to 65 per animal. The economic response (benefit to cost ratio) varies from $2.00 to $12.00 for each dollar invested in a specific additive. Knowledgeable dairy veterinarians must understand the role of each additive, when it will be beneficial, inclusion level, strategies and limitations associated with an addi...

This work presents for the first time a zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF)-coupled resonant gas sensor whose sensitivity shows an improvement up to 78 times over bare silicon resonant sensors with identical dimensions. ZIFs are among the highest surface area material used for resonant-based sensing. We utilize high surface area-to-volume ratios of ZIFs to demonstrate how a microresonator coup...

A series of zeolitic alumino- and gallogermanate compounds, |M(II)(en)(3)|[M(III)(2)Ge(4)O(12)] (M(II) = Ni, Co, Zn; M(III) = Al, Ga; en = ethylenediamine), has been synthesized using in situ formed [M(II)(en)(3)](2+) cations as the structure-directing agents. These zeolitic compounds exhibit the same JST framework topology which is built exclusively of 3-rings. Their structures were determined...

A highly effective biological fertilizer (bio-fertilizer) can be produced cheaply in countries that have a source of a suitable type of zeolitic rock (tuff). Such rocks occur worldwide in areas of past or current volcanism. In the event of explosive volcanic activity huge volumes of silicic glass and other debris are projected into the atmosphere. Reaching high altitude the fine material is sep...
