acceptor/donor or Lewis acid-base (AB) terms, in regulating not only the rates of these reactions but also in determining the solubility behavior of the crystal, S,. For a considerable number of compounds, the solubilities show a general increase as the solidlliquid interfacial tensions (~sL) decrease, but despite suggestions to the contrary, the relationship between ysL and logs, should not ne...

Abstract: DCPD technique is powerful tool for quantitative NDE of cracks. The technique using four probes which are in close proximity to each other has been proposed for NDE of surface cracks; that is the closely coupled probes potential drop (CCPPD) technique. It has been shown that the sensitivity of the CCPPD technique is enhanced significantly in comparison with the usual method. The objec...

In this study, an injectable bone substitute (IBS) consisting of citric acid, chitosan, and hydroxyl propyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) as the liquid phase and tetra calcium phosphate (TTCP), dicalcium phosphate dihydrate (DCPD) and calcium sulfate dehydrate (CSD, CaSO4 x 2H2O) powders as the solid phase, were fabricated. Two groups were classified based on the percent of citric acid in the liquid ...
