Zirconium oxy-salts were hydrolyzed to form positively charged polymer or cluster species in acidic solutions. The zirconium hydrolyzed polymer was found to react with a negatively charged polyelectrolyte, such as poly(vinyl sulfate), and to form a stoichiometric polyion complex. Thus, colloidal titration with poly(vinyl sulfate) was applied to measure the zirconium concentration in an acidic s...

this radionuclide is almost exclusively produced from the decay of its parent 99mo. 99mtc is themost available and important nuclide used as a diagnostic agent in nuclear medicine. to develop anewly practical 99mtc generator using ( n,y ) 99mo, an inorganic polymer adsorbent has beendeveloped framed with oxygen-zirconium-chlorine bonds with a high adsorption of mo, thepolyzirconium adsorbent wa...

Thanks to the Kroll process, metallic zirconium can be produced by means of a fairly complicated reduction process. In actual fact, the ore is found as a by-product when mining titanium and tin ore. Since 2003, the price of zirconium has more than doubled. This is the result of increasing demand and also the fact that a considerable amount of energy is needed to release zirconium from its chemi...

The structure of solid zirconium tetrachloride is known from X-ray studies[l] to consist of extended chains of distorted octahedra with two bridging chlorine atoms between adjacent zirconium atoms. Although the unit cell possesses a center of symmetry, the two pairs of bridging chlorine atoms attached to a given zirconium atom are not trans to each other. The factor group symmetry thus is C2h w...

the removal of organic precursors of disinfection by-products (dbps), i.e. natural organic matter (nom), prior to disinfection is considered as the most effective approach to minimise the formation of dbps. trihalomethanes (thms) as the main group of dbps are categorized and considered to have the potentiality of increasing the rate of liver, kidney and cns adverse effects. this study which pre...

A cationic surfactant-selective electrode for sensitive analysis of cationic surfactant has been developed by using a plasticized poly (vinyl chloride) membrane based on nanocomposite cation exchanger polypyrrole zirconium titanium phosphate. The electrode is excellently selective for the cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) ion over inorganic ions and other cationic surfactants. The membran...

Hydrozirconation of alkynes with Cp2ZrH(Cl) (Schwartz reagent) generates vinyl zirconium species reliably, stereospecifically, and regioselectively. These organometallic reagents can participate in cross-coupling reactions, conjugate and nucleophilic additions, and can undergo carbonylation and halogenation.1 Hydrozirconation of terminal alkynes often proceeds with >50:1 selectivity to form the...

Zirconium oxide (ZrO2) has generated wide interest because of its potential in applications such as solid oxide fuel cells, catalysts and optical devices. In these applications, it is important to control the grain size of the material and increase the surface area by introducing porosity with tailored pore size. This paper presents a synthesis route for the preparation of mesoporous zirconia u...
