The layered titanium oxide is a useful and unique precursor for the facile and rapid preparation of the peroxide layered titanium oxide H1.07Ti1.73O4·nH2O (HTO) crystal with enhanced visible light photoactivity. The H2O2 molecules as peroxide chemicals rapidly enter into the interlayers of HTO crystal, and coordinate with Ti within TiO6 octahedron to form a mass of Ti-O-O coordination bond in t...

Recently, titanium-tantalum alloys have been studied as implant materials for dental and orthopedic surgery. However, titanium and tantalum are difficult to mix by common arc melting and induction melting, because of their high melting point and the marked difference between their densities (Ti: 1,680 degrees C, 4.5 g/cm3, Ta: 2,990 degrees C, 16.6 g/cm3). Thus, the Cold Crucible Levitation Mel...

a complexometric method for the determination of titanium in the presence of other metal ions based on the selective masking ability of 5-sulphosalicylic acid towards titanium is described. titanium (iv) present in a given sample solution is complexed with a known excess of edta and surplus edta is titrated against zinc sulphate solution at ph 5-6 using xylenol orange as the indicator. a known ...

A new zeotype titanium silicate oxidation catalyst with the STT topology has been synthesized from direct synthesis. Ti-STT has a microporous structure with small pore openings, allowing shape selective oxidation catalysis. The isomorphous substitution of Si by Ti in the framework has been confirmed by Raman, FT-IR, UV-VIS and XANES spectroscopies.

Corrosion resistance, wear resistance and biocompatibility of the studied Ti–Ta alloys with Ta contents of 10, 30 and 70 mass% together with the currently used metallic biomaterials pure titanium (Ti) and Ti–6Al–4V extra low interstitial (ELI) alloy were investigated for biomedical applications. Corrosion resistance was measured by an anodic polarization test using an automatic potentiostat in ...

Aerospace engine and airframe designers are constantly seeking lighter weight high strength materials to reduce weight and improve performance of powerplants and aircraft. Titanium metal matrix composites (Ti MMCs) have offered the promise of significant weight savings since their initial development in the early 1960s but until recently, their inadequate quality and reproducibility combined wi...

In the monomeric title titanium(III) compound, [Ti(C(12)H(21)N(2)Si)(2)Cl], the metal atom is surrounded by two N-silylated anilide ligands in an N,N''-chelating mode. The two ends of the N-Si-N chelating unit exhibit different affinity to the metal center. The Ti-N(amine) bond is longer than the Ti-N(anilide) bond by about 0.29 Å. The two ligands are arranged trans to each other and the mol-ec...

Direct metal laser sintering is a technology that allows the fabrication of titanium (Ti) implants with a functional gradation of porosity and surface roughness according to three-dimensional (3D) computer data. The surface roughness of direct metal laser sintered titanium (DMLS-Ti) implants may provide abundant binding sites for bacteria. Bacterial colonization and subsequent biofilm formation...
