The possible carcinogenicity of cobalt, iron, lead, manganese, mercury, platinum, selenium, and titanium is reviewed, taking into account epidemiological data, the results of animal experimental studies, data on mutagenic effects and on other in vitro test systems. Of the great variety of occupations where exposure to one of these metals may occur, only haematite mining has been clearly shown t...

Data were obtained on the copolymerization of ethylene with α-olefins over supported titanium–magnesium catalysts (TMC) prepared same magnesium dichloride support but differing in composition and oxidation state titanium. The kinetics 1-hexene TMC different compositions studied. produced ethylene–1-hexene copolymers, their molecular weight distribution, thermophysical characteristics, branching...

2014 Crystallographic and kinetic characteristics of martensitic transformations and parameters of shape memory effect in B2 compounds of titanium Ti50Ni50-xXx (X = Fe, Co, Pd, Pt, Au, Cu) and Ti50Pd50-xYx (Y = Fe, Co, Cu), where 0 ~ x ~ 50 are investigated. Temperature, hysteresis, value of reversible deformation and stress of martensitic shear for martensitic transformations and shape memory ...

We evaluated the activity of (1) amphotericin-B (AMB), combined with rifampicin (RIF), clarithromycin (CLA), N-acetylcysteine (NAC), ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), and farnesol (FAR) (1000, 1000, 1000, 4000, and 30,000 mg/L, and 300 µM, respectively), against Candida tropicalis biofilms formed on polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and (2) anidulafungin (ANF) combined with the same compound...

The accelerated photocatalytic degradation of industrial wastewater using titanium dioxide as catalyst activated by ultrasound has been investigated in photocatalytic reactor using ultraviolet light source of 125 W. The effect of number of parameters, such as pH, oxidant concentration and catalyst dose has been examined to study the degradation rates in sonolytic, photocatalytic and sonophotoca...

Titanium oxide compounds TiO,Ti2O3, and TiO2 with a considerable extent of nonstoichiometry were fabricated by pulsed laser ablation in water and characterized by X-ray/electron diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and electron energy loss spectroscopy. The titanium oxides were found to occur as nanoparticle aggregates with a predominant 3+ charge and amorphous microtubes when fabricat...
