here, we report the synthesis of a schiff-base mixed-ligand complex of cadmium(іі) in bulk and nano-scales via the precipitation and sonochemical methods, respectively. the complex formula is [cd(3-bpdh)(3-bpdb)cl2]n (1), where the ligands are 3-bpdh = 2,5-bis(3-pyridyl)-3,4-diaza-2,4-hexadiene and 3-bpdb = 1,4-bis(3-pyridyl)-2,3-diaza-1,3-butadiene. the structure of mixed-ligand complex (1) wa...

the zinc-cadmium oxide (zno-cdo) nanocomposites with different weight percentages of cadmium oxide (cdo) nanoparticles were successfully synthesized by the sonochemical method using zinc and cadmium nitrates as precursors to probe their nano-structured surfaces for the decomposition reactions of chloroethyl phenyl sulfide (ceps) as a surrogate of sulfur mustard agent simulant. scanning electron...

Cadmium is an extremely toxic metal, which even in low levels is harmful to the human body, animals and also plants. Human manufactures such as cadmium-nickel batteries and pesticides, plastic, make the earth polluted with cadmium; therefore removal of the cadmium Water is vital for human and animal. Scientists use different methods for cadmium removal including adsorption, precipitation, i...

The mortality experienced by a cohort of 3025 nickel-cadmium battery workers during the period 1946-81 has been investigated. Occupational histories were described in terms of some 75 jobs: eight with "high", 14 with "moderate" or slight, and 53 with minimal exposure to cadmium oxide (hydroxide). The method of regression models in life tables (RMLT) was used to compare the estimated cadmium exp...

* Correspondence: [email protected] 1. Brief historical notes and discovery of cadmium Friedrich Stromeyer and Karl Hermann discovered cadmium (Cd) almost simultaneously in 1817 in samples of zinc oxide obtained by roasting zinc carbonate from Salzgitter (Germany). Cd has no amphoteric properties and, although cadmiate anions are found, it does not dissolve in bases (Borsari, 2011). Cd is a ...

highly crystalline bi3+-doped cadmium oxide (cdo) sub-micron structures were synthesized by calcination the obtained precursor from a sol-gel reaction. the reaction was carried out with cadmium nitrate (cd(no3)2.4h2o), bismuth nitrate (bi(no3)3.5h2o) and ethylene glycol (c2h6o2) reactants without any additives at 80°c for 2h. resulting gel was calcined at 900 °c with increasing temperature rate...

OBJECTIVES Mechanisms of the vascular effect of cadmium vary and involve nervous, hormone and intracellular signaling pathways. However, it is still not clear if mechanisms of the vascular effect of cadmium (Cd) include changes in the synthesis or release of vasoactive agents. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of subchronic Cd poisoning on blood nitric oxide or endothelin in bloo...

A combination of ion exchange and membrane extraction successfully recovered cadmium and cyanide from simulated cadmium-cyanide rinsewaters. The ion exchange loading was most effective at cyanidetocadmium molar ratios of 4:l or less; when the molar ratio exceeded 4:1, cadmiumcyanlde complexes caused a chromatographic displacement of free cyanide from the resin. Cyanide-to-cadmium molar ratios i...
