Magnesium wastes and scraps, one of the metal wastes, are produced by many industrial activities, all over the world. Their growing size is becoming a future problem for the world. In this study, the use of magnesium wastes as a raw material in the production of the magnesium borate hydrates are aimed. The method used in the experiments is hydrothermal synthesis. The conditions are set to, wast...

The properties of coatings formed on the MA8 magnesium alloy by plasma electrolytic oxidation in electrolytes containing multi-walled carbon nanotubes concentrations 2, 4 and 6 g/l have been investigated. It was found that introduction leads to an increase adhesive strength, microhardness Young’s modulus obtained layers.

Magnesium oxide suitable for the use in basic refractories was prepared from dolomite (CaMg(CO3)2) by hydrochloric acid leaching, precipitation with CO2 and thermal hydrolysis. Leaching of the dolomite ore in aqueous hydrochloric acid solution was investigated with respect to the effects of time on dissolution of the dolomite sample. The dependence of the observed dissolution rate on pH was est...

Magnesium and its alloys are active materials, and the oxide can easily form when they react with air and moisture (Czerwinski 2002). In addition, magnesium and its alloys are flammable and require strict safeguards during the manufacturing process. These disadvantages make the processing of magnesium alloys into finished products more challenging. These drawbacks cause defects such as cracks, ...

In order to improve the yield of BN nanotubes prepared by ball milling annealing method, a small amount magnesium was used as catalyst synthesized boron nitride nanotubes. The results showed that with high yield, purity and uniform size were synthesized. morphology BNNTs is bamboo-like cylinder-shaped. diameter them about 50 150 nm most are 100nm. length dozens microns. existence end particles ...

Carbon-based nanomaterials such as single-walled carbon nanotubes and reduced graphene oxide are currently being evaluated for biomedical applications including in vivo drug delivery and tumor imaging. Several reports have studied the toxicity of carbon nanomaterials, but their effects on human male reproduction have not been fully examined. Additionally, it is not clear whether the nanomateria...

Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) containing traces of iron oxide were functionalized by noncovalent lipid-PEG or covalent carboxylic acid function to supply new efficient MRI contrast agents for in vitro and in vivo applications. Longitudinal (r(1)) and transversal (r(2)) water proton relaxivities were measured at 300 MHz, showing a stronger T(2) feature as an MRI contrast agent (r(2)/r(...

A new atomic layer deposition (ALD) process was applied for the uniform coating of carbon nanotubes with a number of transition-metal oxide thin films (vanadium, titanium, and hafnium oxide). The presented approach is adapted from non-aqueous sol-gel chemistry and utilizes metal alkoxides and carboxylic acids as precursors. It allows the coating of the inner and outer surface of the tubes with ...

Doping with other elements is one of the efficient ways to modify the physical and chemical properties of TiO2 nanomaterials. In the present work, Ni-doped TiO2 nanotubes were fabricated through anodic oxidation of NiTi alloy and further annealing treatment. The hydrogen sensing properties of the nanotube sensor were investigated. It was found that the Ni-doped TiO2 nanotubes were sensitive to ...
