Pure borax and various boron compounds are produced from the solutions in which tincal is dissolved with various reagents. Economically important boron compounds such as boric acid, borax, boric oxide, and refined hydrated sodium borates and perborates are produced from boron-containing ores. The production of boric acid by using nitric acid from tincal is more advantageous because it evalu...

A novel mixed-valence polyoxomolybdenum anion, [Mo(V)(7)Mo(VI)O(16)(O(3)PPhPO(3)H)(4)](3)(-), was synthesized hydrothermally from molybdenum oxide, molybdenum metal, boric and phosphoric acids, 1,2-phenyldiphosphonic acid, and imidazole (ImH) and was structurally characterized as an imidazolium salt (orthorhombic, Aba2; a = 16.674(4), b = 17.238(1), and c = 24.81(2) A). One- and two-dimensional...

Boric acid (BA), widely used for both medicinal and nonmedicinal purposes, was known to adversely affect reproduction and fertility in rodents. NIOSH, in evaluating the literature prior to writing a Criteria Document, asked NIEHS to perform an RACB study on BA to generate both structural and functional data to be used for setting exposure criteria (Fail et al., Fundam Appl Toxicol 17:225-239 [1...

as an anti-angiogenesis agent by Ladouceur et al. These compounds have a potent inhibitory effect on the growth of tumor cells with angiogenesis activity. We have also carried out a structure–activity relationship (SAR) study of 3-(indol2-yl)quinoxalin-2-ones, which showed a potent inhibitory activity toward the VEGF-induced proliferation of human mesangial cells and the VEGF-induced auto-phosp...

in order to study the effects of farm yard manure (fym), sulfate of potassium (sop) and boric acid on quality and quantity of sugar beet, an experiment was conducted in split plot factorial with four replications during 3 years (1999-2001) in bardsir- kerman. the fym was the main plot in 3 levels: 0, 10 and 20 ton.ha-1. sop was applied at levels, 0 ,75 and 150 kg.ha-1  and boric acid at levels ...

A computational study of the electronic structure and stability of complexes formed between Zeolite Y and boric acid was carried out at the HF and B3LYP levels using 6-31G* basis set. Five structures located as local minimum in PES of complex (structures d, e, f, g, and h). The most stable structure is formed due to hydrogen bonding between two hydroxyl of boric acid and both oxygen of ...

Colemanite is one of the most important underground riches of Turkey, having approximately 60% of the world boron deposits, and it has a large portion in the deposits. In this study, chemical leaching and biological leaching methods were used for production of boric acid from colemanite (2CaO · 3B3O3 · 5H2O) (Emet-Kütahya, Turkey). Oxalic acid concentration, temperature, stirring time and solid...

Several procedures for the determination of Ca, Mg and Sr in soils have been compared on the basis of the accuracy of analysis of two NIST reference materials (Montana Soils SRM 2710 and SRM 2711). Samples were dissolved in a mixture of hydrofluoric and nitric acids in sealed vessels in a microwave oven and in teflon beakers on a hot plate. The digests obtained from both dissolution methods wer...
