One of the reasons of implants failure are the stress forces appearing in the material–tissue interface due to the differences between their mechanical properties. For this reason, similar mechanical properties to the surrounding tissue are desirable. The synthesis of hydroxyapatite by solution combustion method and its processing have been studied in order to obtain fully dense ceramic bodies ...

A versatile one-pot auto-combustion method for the synthesis of powders of iron-doped strontium titanate, SrTi1-xFexO3-δ, has been developed. The synthesis is optimised by the combined use of EDTA and citric acid as chelating agents, and an appropriate balance between fuel and oxidising elements in the reaction mixture. The method produces immediately an almost phase-pure perovskite oxide powde...

9 The synthesis of (Ti1-xZrx)B2-Al2O3, (Ti1-xHfx)B2-Al2O3 and (Zr1-xHfx)B2-Al2O3 10 (x=0, 0.5 and 1) powder nanocomposites via a mechanochemical method using TiO2, ZrO2, 11 HfO2, HBO2 and Al as the raw materials was investigated. The formation of the 12 nanocomposites proceeds via a mechanically-induced self-sustaining reaction (MSR) process 13 that involves several simultaneous reactions. The ...

Calcium phosphate (hydroxyapatite and tri-calcium phosphate) bioceramics closely resembling, in chemical composition, those found in vivo in human bones have been synthesized by using novel synthetic body ̄uid solutions via the self-propagating combustion synthesis (SPCS) method. Powder characterization was performed by XRD, ICP-AES, FTIR and SEM. # 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

Nanocrystalline alumina powder has been synthesized using solution combustion method. The obtained nanocrystalline alumina powder was used as an efficient catalyst for the synthesis of imidazo[1,2-a]azine derivatives from one-pot three component reaction of benzaldehyde, 2-aminoazine and trimethylsilylcyanide under ultrasonic irradiation and refluxing condition. Reusability of catalyst and shor...

Nanomaterials with characteristic structural dimensions on the order of few nanometers (1–100 nm) attract wide attention owing to their unique properties. They found a variety of applications in different branches of science and industry including catalysis, micro and biotechnologies, energy storage and conversion devices, such as fuel cells. Different techniques have been developed for nanomat...
