In this study, mechanochemcical process(MCP) is applied to synthesize ultrafine TaC powders. In this research, nano powder composite TaC-TaB2 was produced using mixtures of tantalum carbide and boron carbide as raw materials via mechanochemical process. The phase formation characterization during process was utilized by X-ray diffractometry (XRD). The morphology of synthesized powder was studie...

A series of tantalum imido and amido complexes supported by a pyridine-linked bis(phenolate) ligand has been synthesized. Characterization of these complexes via X-ray crystallography reveals both C(s) and C(2) binding modes of the bis(phenolate)pyridine ligand, with complexes containing two or fewer strong pi-donor interactions from ancillary ligands giving C(s) symmetry, whereas three strong ...

Zirconium oxide and tantalum oxide films were deposited in an inverted cylindrical magnetron cathode using high power pulsed sputtering. Average power densities were between 5 and 7 W/cm2 and peak power densities were in the range of 0.5 kW/cm2. In all of the experiments the oxygen was introduced using flow control, and the current and voltage waveforms of the HPPMS supply changed in a reproduc...

OBJECTIVE This work aims to perform a biomechanical test to evaluate the effect of interior supporting system and tantalum rod in simulating the treatment of ischemic necrosis of the femoral head. METHOD Three models were established: control group (group A), interior supporting system group (group B), and tantalum rod group (group C). Step-by-step loading was applied on the top of the femora...

Isostructural vanadium, niobium and tantalum complexes of bis(3,5-di-tert-butyl-2-phenol)amine ([ONO]H3), were prepared and characterized to evaluate the impact of the metal ion on redox-activity of the ligand platform. New vanadium and niobium complexes with the general formula, [ONO]MCl2L (M = V, L = THF, 1-V; M = Nb, L = Et2O, 1-Nb) were prepared and structurally analysed by X-ray crystallog...

During temperature cycles, metallic alloys for high temperature applications are usually oxidized with formation of an external protective oxide scale, but they loose it during the cooling. This problem of oxide spallation can be studied by specific tests of cyclic oxidation but first indications can be provided by analyzing the cooling parts of thermogravimetry curves. This possibility was stu...

Nonunion is uncommon after proximal humerus fracture surgery. There is no agreement about preferred method of treatment. Traditional approaches have included laterally based locking plates, autogenous grafting, and endosteal support to provide improved biomechanical stability. Open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) of proximal humeral nonunion has been performed with various methods, inclu...
