The activity and selectivity of aluminaand magnesia-supported vanadia for propane oxidative dehydrogenation can be enhanced by can be enhanced by interactions of vanadia with molydena for the alumina-supported catalyst and by phosphorous doping for the magnesia-supported catalyst.

The major objective in glass tank melters is to optimize the entire process by reducing the maximum temperature of melting, improving refractory performance and/or improving melter fuel efficiency. The required characteristics of refractories used in melters are: thermal shock resistance, corrosion resistance, controlled expansion behavior, low thermal conductivity, and adequate creep resistanc...

Present study was undertaken to analyze and select most appropriate method for removal of fluorides in rural areas. Five methods were analyzed in details with mechanism and limitations.The methods are: Activated Alumina, Red Mud, Montmorillonite, Nalagonda Technique and Magnesia. The Study reveals that magnesia is the most appropriate fluoride treatment device for rural areas.

OBJECTIVE This study was designed to investigate pharmacological interaction between magnesium laxative and antacid in patients receiving opioid analgesic. METHODS Data obtained from a total of 441 eligible patients receiving opioid analgesic for the first time were retrospectively analysed. The incidence of constipation, defined as stool-free interval of 3 days and more within the first week...

The coefficient of thermal expansion of core and veneer porcelains for all ceramic crowns must be compatible to prevent formation of stresses during the firing cycles. The purpose of this study was to use a thermal shock test to evaluate the crazing resistance of six all-ceramic crown systems. The systems tested were: Vita In-Ceram, Vita Hi-Ceram, Dicor veneered with Vitadur N, magnesia core ve...
