• TiO 2 and ZnO hollow spheres were successfully immobilized on ceramic paper. Immobilized catalysts proved to be remarkably stable reusable. Photoactivity order was reversed for in fixed suspended forms. induced the crystallization of adhesive. Titanium dioxide zinc oxide synthesized using carbon as templates. To investigate their practical applicability, they paper support titanium(IV) isopro...

Based on our previous finding that a chromatography with titanium beads selectively binds phosphoproteins, including caseins, phosvitin and dentin phosphoproteins, we investigated whether bone phosphoproteins also bind to titanium. Bovine bone matrix proteins were extracted with 2 M urea/PBS after demineralization. The 2 M urea extract was directly applied to the titanium chromatography column ...

The waste tyres represent a source of energy and valuable hydrocarbon products. Waste tyres were pyrolysed catalytically in a batch reactor under atmospheric pressure. The effects of basic catalysts (MgO and CaCO3) were studied on the pyrolysis products. The distribution ratio of gas, liquid and char with MgO and CaCO3 were 24.4:39.8:35.8 wt % and 32.5:32.2:35.2 wt % respectively at 350°C for 2...

There is a widespread interest in developing methods to recover homogeneous catalysts, particularly chiral catalysts, from a reaction mixture. The impetus to recover and reuse homogeneous catalysts stems not only from an economic standpoint but also from the need to eliminate contamination of the transition metal catalyst in the product and in the waste streams. The challenge is to recover the ...

This work reports the improved catalytic activity of nickel catalysts supported on nanocrystalline magnesium oxide prepared by a sol–gel method, using Pluronic P123 as structure-directing agent for pore formation. The presence also provided reduction crystallite size from 54 to 18 nm, well attainment small metallic particles. In situ X-ray diffraction was used assess structural evolution materi...

Metallic materials are mostly a combination of metallic elements, such as iron, aluminum, magnesium, titanium and manganese, which may also include small amounts non-metallic carbon, nitrogen oxygen [...]

Reaction of the PEt3 adduct of a disilylated five-membered cyclic germylene with group 4 metallocene dichlorides in the presence of magnesium led to the formation of the respective germylene metallocene phosphine complexes of titanium, zirconium, and hafnium. Attempts to react the related NHC adduct of a disilylated four-membered cyclic germylene under the same conditions with Cp2TiCl2 did not ...

A tissue-engineered endothelial layer was prepared by culturing endothelial cells on a fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2)-l-ascorbic acid phosphate magnesium salt n-hydrate (AsMg)-apatite (Ap) coated titanium plate. The FGF-2-AsMg-Ap coated Ti plate was prepared by immersing a Ti plate in supersaturated calcium phosphate solutions supplemented with FGF-2 and AsMg. The FGF-2-AsMg-Ap layer on the...
