Urea formaldehyde resins were formulated with vatiables of three reaction pHs (1.0, 4.8, and 8.0 5.0) and three catalysts (sodium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide/ammonium mix, and triethanolamine) . The resins were prepared by placing all formaldehyde and water in reaction kettle and pH was adjusted with sulfnric acid and sodium hydroxide, respectively. Urea was added in 1.5 equal parts at 1 minute...

Beneficial effects of ammonium hydroxide was studied, to optimize the ammonium hydroxide concentration for effective tenderization of spent hen meat. Spent hen meat chunks were subjected to ammonium hydroxide treatment (AHT) at different concentrations (0%, 0.1%, 0.5% and 1.0% v/w) and evaluated for different quality parameters after 24 hours. The results indicated a significant increase in pH,...

US Environmental Protection Agency Method 300.0 specifies the use of an IonPac AS4A anion-exchange column with a carbonate-hydrogencarbonate eluent and suppressed conductivity detection for the determination of inorganic anions in environmental waters by ion chromatography. Hydroxide eluents have not typically been used for the routine analysis of common inorganic anions due to the lack of an a...

OBJECTIVES The absorption of commonly used ferrous iron salts from intestinal segments at neutral to slightly alkaline pH is low, mainly because soluble ferrous iron is easily oxidized to poorly soluble ferric iron and ferrous iron but not ferric iron is carried by the divalent metal transporter DMT-1. Moreover, ferrous iron frequently causes gastrointestinal side effects. In iron(III)-hydroxid...

Even though a lot of research has been carried out concerning the preparation of carbonate apatite (CHA), they were related to CHA in the form of powder. In the present study, macroporous CHA bone substitutes were prepared through composition-transformation of gypsum and Ca-hydroxide. Here, we investigated the effect of added Ca-hydroxide to gypsum, carbonation periods, and hydrothermal tempera...

Objective. The aim of this study was to evaluate the rat subcutaneous tissue reaction to calcium hydroxide-based intracanal medicaments, UltraCal XS (calcium hydroxide, barium sulphate, aqueous matrix), Hydropast (calcium hydroxide, barium sulphate, and propyleneglycol), and Calen (Calcium hydroxide, zinc oxide, colophony, and polyethyleneglycol), used as a control. Methods. Forty-eight rats (R...

Calcium hydroxide had been used as the intracanal dressing in endodontic treatment due to its high alkaline and high antimicrobial capacity. It also be able to dissolve the necrotic tissue, prevent the root resorbtion and regenerate a new hard tissue. The aim of this study is to identify the concentration of calcium hydroxide that has the lowest citotoxicity. There are 5 groups, each group had ...

While CO2 storage technologies via carbon mineralization have focused on the use of earth-abundant calciumand magnesium-bearing minerals, there is an emerging interest in the scalable synthesis of alternative carbonates such as lithium carbonate. Lithium carbonate is the carbonated end-product of lithium hydroxide, a highly reactive sorbent for CO2 capture in spacecraft and submarines. Other em...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of two experimental pastes containing propolis extract associated with calcium hydroxide against polymicrobial cultures collected from 16 necrotic and fistulae root canals in primary molars of 4-8-year-old children of both sexes. The agar-well diffusion technique was used to determine the antimicrobial activity of the followin...

Objectives: The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of calcium hydroxide on the adhesion of a resin system to dentin by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Methods: Cavities were prepared on the mesial and distal sides of 10 extracted lower human molars. The mesial cavities were coated with Prime & Bond 2.1 (Caulk, Dentsply) after total etching, and were restored with TPH composite resi...
