titanium aluminide and its alloys have been utilized in automotive, aerospace and power industries because of their specific properties such as low density (~ 4 g/cm3), high melting temperature (~ 1460 °c) and excellent high-temperature strength. ti-48al intermetallic compound and its alloys with 1.5, 3 and 5 at.%mn were produced with mechanical alloying of elemental powders for 50 hours. the p...

The redox properties of sulfite ion has been examind using cyclic voltammetry in acetonitrile solvent at the surface of gold, pelatin and glassy carbon electrodes. It has bben found tha, sulfite ion exhibits two electron oxidation peak with EC’ mechanism. A novel chemically modified electrode containing Prussian blue complex and multi wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNs) was achieved on the surface of...

protective coatings that resist oxide scale growth and decrease chromium evaporation are necessary to makestainless steel interconnect materials for long-term durable operation of solid oxide fuel cells (sofcs). inthis study a layer of manganese was coated on the surface of aisi 441 ferritic stainless steel which is used insolid oxide fuel cells for interconnect applications. the oxidation beha...

Inhibition of fatty acid oxidation stimulates feeding behavior in rats. To determine whether a decrease in hepatic fatty acid oxidation triggers this behavioral response, we compared the effects of different doses of methyl palmoxirate (MP), an inhibitor of fatty acid oxidation, on food intake with those on in vivo and in vitro liver and muscle metabolism. Administration of 1 mg/kg MP selective...
