MgAlON composites have been prepared under nitrogen atmosphere, using Dengfeng calcined alumina w(Al2O3) = 85 % and other raw material, in order to reduce the production cost and make full use of the rich bauxite resources in Henan Province. The effects of the different sintering temperature and different matrix content on the preparation and properties of MgAlON composites were investigated. T...

OBJECTIVE To describe contemporary air dispersion modeling and health risk assessment methodologies applied to alumina refineries and to summarize recent results. METHODS Air dispersion models using emission source and meteorological data have been used to assess ground-level concentrations (GLCs) of refinery emissions. Short-term (1-hour and 24-hour average) GLCs and annual average GLCs have...

We have successfully prepared anodized alumina membrane distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) using electrochemical anodization method. The transmission peak of this distributed Bragg reflector could be easily and effectively modulated to cover almost any wavelength range of the whole visible spectrum by adjusting anodization temperature.

The quality of the refractories applied on integrated gasification combined cycle should be a key factor that affects both the reliability and the economics of gasifier operation. To enhance the workability of chromia/alumina castables, three types of ultrafine alumina powder were added to improve the workability. Densification behavior of such castables in the presence of ultrafine alumina was...

Formation and dynamics of an Al(OH)3 precipitation ring is studied by diffusing NaOH into a gel containing AlCl3. Limited feeding of the outer electrolyte (NaOH) is found to yield an intricate ring-dynamics which involves stopping and reversal of the direction of motion of the precipitation ring, and evolution into stationary multi-ring structures. A model of the ring-dynamics is developed by c...

This is a review of acid aluminum phosphate for the binding and coating of materials. The acid aluminum phosphate in the form of a solution obtained by dissolving aluminum hydroxide in phosphoric acid, with a P/Al molar ratio of 23, is effective for the binding of fibrous or particulate materials. Porous ceramic articles are made using this binder by wet forming, followed by heat treatment. The...

This study is devoted to the hydrothermal oxidation of aluminum—the exothermic process in which hydrogen and aluminum oxide (or hydroxide) are produced. In this work, influence chemical purity on conversion degree coarse at was studied. Distilled water granules with an average size ~7–10 mm three different purities—99.7, 99.9, 99.99%—were used experiments. The experiments were carried out insid...

A new sol±gel route was applied to prepare alumina ®lms by using AlCl3 ́6H2O as starting material and acetylacetone (AcAc) as additive. Our research results show that AcAc and aluminum form a complex compound in the sol, which makes the sol very stable. Meanwhile, the complex structure prevents the decomposition going on quickly during the sintering process and the obtained ®lms are free of crac...

Risperidone is a white to slightly beige powder. It is practically insoluble in water, freely soluble in methylene chloride, and soluble in methanol and 0.1 N HCl. RISPERDAL® tablets are available in 0.25 mg (dark yellow), 0.5 mg (red-brown), 1 mg (white), 2 mg (orange), 3 mg (yellow), and 4 mg (green) strengths. Inactive ingredients are colloidal silicon dioxide, hypromellose, lactose, magnesi...
