A number of studies have demonstrated the pivotal role of collagen in modulating cell growth and differentiation. In bone, where the extracellular matrix is composed of approximately 85% type I collagen, cellular interaction with matrix components has been shown to be important in the regulation of the osteoblast phenotype. Preservation or enhancement of normal osteoblast function and appositio...

This paper presents the results of research on development a technology intended to process electric smelting dusts ilmenite concentrate with extraction silicon and titanium production products in form their dioxides. Dusts were processed for separation using ammonium fluoride method. The optimum conditions fluorination sublimation compounds from dust determined: temperature 260 °С, 6 h duratio...

The properties, applications and methods for producing titanium vanadium diborides are considered. These oxygen-free refractory metal-like compounds. As a result, they characterized by high values of thermal electrical conductivity. Their hardness is relatively high. Titanium exhibit significant chemical resistance in aggressive environments. For these reasons, have found application modern tec...

Computational searches for new materials are naturally turning from binary systems, to ternary and other multicomponent beyond. Here, we select the industrially-relevant metals titanium aluminium report results of an extensive structure prediction study on titanium-carbon-oxygen (Ti-C-O) aluminium-carbon-oxygen (Al-C-O) systems. We map out first time full phase stability Ti-C-O Al-C-O compounds...

low carbon steel samples were both shot into and inoculated with titanium in order to improve mechanical properties such as strength and toughness. sem observations and x-ray analyses revealed that titanium nitride and titanium carbonitride precipitates being scattered in the ferrite substrate reduce the grain size in all as-cast, heat-treated and as-rolled cases. the growth of the grains at hi...

The adsorption properties of new ceramics titania (titanium dioxide, Ti02) as a column packing material for high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) were investigated in our recent studies. The adsorption mechanism of titania was found to be different from that of silica gel; the titania adsorbs acidic compounds rather than basic compounds, while silica gel adsorbs basic compounds. In addi...
