magnesium and its alloys are light, biodegradable, biocompatible metals that have promising applications as biomaterials. magnesium is potentially useful for orthopedic and cardiovascular applications. however, the corrosion rate of this metal is so high that its degradation occurs before the end of the healing process. one of the ways to improve the corrosion rate is to compose it’s with ceram...

Magnesium has been used in aviation industries, automobile manufacturing, electronics and medical engineering due to its unique properties thus far. The main problem in its utilization is the high reactivity of magnesium with oxygen and humidity, which both changes its properties. The surface charge and different density results in difficulties in dispersion stability of the powder in an ...

The pharmaceutical industry requires the use of lubricants to prevent static electric buildup in the cohesive powders that are processed in manufacturing plants. In this report we examine the effects of common lubricant magnesium stearate on two flow properties, flow index and dynamic dilation, of lactose. We conducted two experiments using a gravitational displacement rheometer and a dynamic d...

Cubic diamond was synthesized with two systems, (1) graphite with pure magnesium carbonate (magnesite) and (2) graphite with mixed potassium and magnesium carbonate at pressures and temperatures above 9.5 GPa, 1600 ±C and 9 GPa, 1650 ±C, respectively. At these conditions (1) the pure magnesite is solid, whereas (2) the mixed carbonate exists as a melt. In this pressure range, graphite seems to ...

We present a comparison between the structural, chemical, and electrical properties of Mg-doped GaN nanowires grown by hot-wall chemical vapor deposition using two different Mg sources, namely, metaloorganic bis(methylcyclopentadienyl) magnesium and magnesium nitride powder. We find that Mg from the solid nitride source is more effectively incorporated into the nanowires while better maintainin...

This research paper compares the thermal conductivity and thermal expansion coefficients of glass fiber reinforced epoxy composite laminates (GFRP laminates) made using the Hand layup technique. The composite laminates were fabricated by filling with varying concentrations of fly ash, stone powder, aluminium oxide (Al2O3), magnesium hydroxide (Mg (OH)2), Silicon carbide particles(SiC) and hemat...

In this study, we made an attempt to synthesize doped bioactive hydroxyapatite (HAp) ceramic powder using a simple Chemical method and studied its physical and mechanical properties. Different quantities (2wt% and 5 wt%) of Magnesium chloride Hexahydrate , Zinc oxide, Titanium oxide were incorporated as dopants into Hap at the time of synthesis. The synthesized powder samples were analyzed for ...

Methodology has been developed for the bulk and trace element analysis of spices such as curry powder and turmeric powder originated from Sri Lanka by the k0-standardization method (INAAk0) and by energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (EDXRF). SRM 1572 citrus leaves was used to check the accuracy of the results obtained by the two nuclear techniques. The elements determined quantitatively in the...

In the current study, a sol-gel-synthesized tricalcium magnesium silicate powder was coated on Ti-6Al-4V alloys using plasma spray method. Composition of feed powder was evaluated by X-ray diffraction technique before and after the coating process. Scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy were used to study the morphology of coated substrates. The corrosion behaviors of bare and...
