In the title compound, [Ti(C(8)H(13)Si)(C(11)H(21)Si(2))Cl(2)], the Ti(IV) atom is bonded to two Cl atoms, one 1,3-bis-(trimethyl-sil-yl)cyclo-penta-dienyl (Si(2)Cp) and one (trimethyl-sil-yl)cyclo-penta-dienyl ring (SiCp). The Si(2)Cp centroid-titanium distance is 2.0763 (10) Å and the SiCp centroid-titanium distance is 2.0793 (10) Å. The angle subtended at the Ti atom by the centroids of both...

In the title complex mol-ecule, [Ti(C(10)H(15))(2)I], the paramagnetic Ti(III) atom is coordinated by two penta-methyl-cyclo-penta-dienyl (Cp*) ligands and one iodide ligand. The two Cp* ligands are in a staggered orientation. The coordination geometry at the titanium atom can be described as distorted trigonal-planar.

Dehydrogenation of Me(2)NH·BH(3) (1) by group 4 metallocene alkyne complexes of the type Cp(2)M(L)(η(2)-Me(3)SiC(2)SiMe(3)) [Cp = η(5)-cyclopentadienyl; M = Ti, no L (2Ti); M = Zr, L = pyridine (2Zr)] and group 4 metal amido complexes of the type M(NMe(2))(4) [M = Ti (8Ti), Zr (8Zr)] is presented.

The aim of the work was to evaluate the influence of the temperature of investment healting on the tensile strength and Vickers hardness of CP Ti and Ti-6Al-4V alloy casting. Were obtained for the tensile strength test dumbbell rods that were invested in the Rematitan Plus investment and casting in the Discovery machine cast. Thirty specimens were obtained, fifteen to the CP Titanium and fiftee...

The management of severe acetabular bone defects in revision reconstructive orthopedic surgery is challenging. In this study, cyclic precalcification (CP) treatment was used on both nanotube-surface Ti-mesh and a bone graft substitute for the acetabular defect model, and its effects were assessed in vitro and in vivo. Nanotube-Ti mesh coated with hydroxyapatite/β-tricalcium phosphate (HA/β-TCP)...

The purpose of this study was to characterize the etching mechanism, namely, the etching rate and the activation energy, of a titanium dental implant in concentrated acid and to construct the relation between the activation energy and the nanoscale surface topographies. A commercially-pure titanium (CP Ti) and Ti-6Al-4V ELI surface were tested by shot blasting (pressure, grain size, blasting di...

In this work the biocompatibility of two vanadium-free Ti–Al–Nb alloys, Ti–15Al–33Nb and Ti–21Al–29Nb, was evaluated and compared to that for commercially pure titanium (CP Ti) and alumina (Al2O3). Fine particles were milled from sheet-processed material and implanted onto mice calvaria using an established animal model. Various stains, including methylene blue/acid fuchsin, TRAcP, and immunohi...

Titanium is widely used in biomedical applications from many years for its interesting properties, nevertheless there are a large number of researchers studying the way to improve the performances of biomedical devices. A large number of papers concern the study of “commercially pure titanium” (Ti CP) but, very often, no details are indicated regarding: 1) the type of Ti CP used; 2) the sandbla...

fluoride-containing solutien. Commercially pure titanium (CP-Ti) and six titanium-based alloys were used: Ti-O.15Pd, Ti6Al-4V, Ti-7Nb-6Al, Ti-55Ni, Ti-10Cu, and Ti-20Cr. Two test solutions were prepared fbr immersion of polished titanium and titanium alloys: one consisting of O,2% NaF + O,9% NaCl (pH 3.8 with lactic acid) and the other of O.1 mol/1 H202 + O.9% NaCl (pH 5.5). Following immersion...

Dental implants have increased the use of titanium and titanium alloys in prosthetic applications. Whitening toothpastes with peroxides are available for patients with high aesthetic requirements, but the effect of whitening toothpastes on titanium surfaces is not yet known, although titanium is prone to fluoride ion attack. Thus, the aim of the present study was to compare Ti-5Ta alloy to cp T...
