β-CaB4O7: A New Polymorph Synthesized under High-Pressure/High-Temperature Conditions

A new oxoborate β -CaB4O7 has been synthesized under high-pressure/high-temperature conditions from calcium oxide and boron oxide with a Walker-type multianvil apparatus at 7.7 GPa and 1100 ◦C. Single crystal X-ray structure determination of β -CaB4O7 revealed: Pmn21, a = 1058.4(1), b = 436.9(1), c = 419.4(1) pm, Z = 2, R1 = 0.0305, wR2 = 0.0587 (all data). The compound is isotypic to the known...

Magnetic properties of the filled skutterudite-type structure compounds GdRu4P12 and TbRu4P12 synthesized under high pressure

High performance under pressure.

Nanomaterials under high-pressure.

The use of high-pressure for the study and elaboration of homogeneous nanostructures is critically reviewed. Size effects, the interaction between nanostructures and guest species or the interaction of the nanosystem with the pressure transmitting medium are emphasized. Phase diagrams and the possibilities opened by the combination of pressure and temperature for the elaboration of new nanomate...

Breathing under high ambient pressure.

LORD, GEORGE P., GEORGE F. BOND, AND KARL E. SCHAEFER. Breathing under high ambient pressure. J. Appl. Physiol. 21 (6): 1833-1838. 1966.—The acute effect of high ambient pressure on expiratory airflow was studied in healthy adult males in the ambient pressure range from 1.0 to 7.0 atmospheres absolute pressure (Ata) using a hyperbaric chamber. Changes in flow were assessed with the maximum expi...
