[b(oh)3]0.78[b(oh)2(oso3h)]0.22 or (bsa) was simply prepared by addition of chlorosulfonic acid to commercial boric acid at room temperature. this cheap and green solid acid was used as an efficient catalyst for synthesis of acylals from aldehydes under solvent-free conditions at room temperature.

The Hastelloy X superalloy is a widely used solid-solution Ni-based sheet alloy for gas turbines, aero-engine combustion chambers, and other hot-end components. To investigate the effect of microstructure, especially grain size, on its weldability, bars are homogenized, cold-rolled to thin sheets, recrystallized under different conditions obtain equiaxed microstructures with average sizes ~5 ?m...
