In this paper, the extraction of vanadium from stone coal by roasting with MgO and leaching with sulfuric acid has been investigated, and the mechanism analysis of stone coal roasting with MgO was studied. The results indicated that under the conditions that the mass fraction of the particles with grain size of 0–0.074 mm in raw ore was 75%, the roasting temperature was 500 ◦C, the roasting tim...

Pulsed laser deposition was used to grow Sr(2)FeMoO(6) films of different thicknesses on MgO(100), SrTiO(3)(100), and LaAlO(3)(100) with respective lattice mismatches of +6.2%, -1.2%, and -4.3%. Surface roughness and morphology, and film crystal quality and epitaxy were determined by atomic force microscopy and x-ray diffraction, respectively. Two-dimensional layer-by-layer growth was evident f...

Magnetic graphene oxide modified with 1-amine-3-methyl imidazole chloride ionic liquid (LI-MGO) was prepared through chemical co-precipitation and modified using 1-amine-3-imidazolium chloride ionic liquid. The as-prepared LI-MGO was characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FT-IR). The adsorption properties ...

OBJECTIVE The ubiquitin-proteasome system is the main degradation machinery for intracellularly altered proteins. Hyperglycemia has been shown to increase intracellular levels of the reactive dicarbonyl methylglyoxal (MGO) in cells damaged by diabetes, resulting in modification of proteins and alterations of their function. In this study, the influence of MGO-derived advanced glycation end prod...

Reducing the energy loss and retarding the carrier recombination at the interface are crucial to improve the performance of the perovskite solar cell (PSCs). However, little is known about the recombination mechanism at the interface of anode and SnO2 electron transfer layer (ETL). In this work, an ultrathin wide bandgap dielectric MgO nanolayer is incorporated between SnO2:F (FTO) electrode an...

Tanshinone IIA is one of the major diterpenes from Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge and has been shown to possess a protective effect on the endothelial cells. The present study aimed to investigate whether tanshinone IIA could protect against methylglyoxal (MGO)-induced injury in human brain microvascular endothelial cells (HBMEC). Using cultured HBMEC, cell viability was measured by MTT assay and tr...

Doping of simple oxide materials can give rise to new exciting physical and chemical properties and open new perspectives for a variety of possible applications. Here we use density functional theory calculations to investigate the B-, C- and N-doped MgO(001) surfaces. We have found that the investigated dopants induce magnetization of the system amounting to 3, 2 and 1 μB for B, C and N, respe...

Accurate ab initio calculations are performed to investigate the stable isomers of [MgO(3)](+) and its lowest electronic states at both molecular and asymptotic regions. The calculations are done using large basis sets and configuration interaction methods including the complete active space self-consistent field, the internally contracted multi-reference configuration interaction, the standard...

In our previous study, we investigated ammonia-free phosphate-bonded investments using Mg (H2PO4)2 powder. The purpose of the present study was to attempt usage of 50 wt% Mg (H2PO4)2 solution instead of powder. Magnesium oxide (MgO) was prepared as a binder and cristobalite was selected as a refractory. After arranging six kinds of experimental investments (A-F) with different cristobalite/MgO ...

nanocrystalline magnesium oxides were prepared by sol–gel method and were characterized by x-ray diffraction, n2-bet, sem and infrared spectroscopy techniques. the results confirmed the formation of nano- mgo materials with crystallite size in range of 5-20 nm and surface areas of 336-556m2/g. the product has been tested as destructive adsorbent for the decontamination of (2-chloroethyl) ethyl ...
