In this paper the feasibility of NbAl3/Al2O3 nanocomposite formation through mechanochemical reaction between Al and Nb2O5 and the effect of mechanical activation on the kinetic and reaction mechanism were investigated. Structural and phase evolution during mechanical alloying were studied by employing transmission electron microscopy (TEM)...

objecttive(s): despite the poor mechanical properties of hydroxyapatite, its unique biological properties leads we think about study on improving its properties rather than completely replacing it with other biomaterials. accordingly, in this study we introduced hydroxyapatite reinforced with hardystonite as a novel bio-nanocompositeand evaluate its in-vitro bioactivity with the aim of developi...

Background: This study was designed to respond to the controversy regarding the necessity of oocyte activation after the ICSI procedure for normal embryo development in sheep. Materials and Methods: The effect of chemical stimulation with either 5mM ionomycin (I) for 5 minutes or ionomycin + 2 mM 6-dimethylaminopurine (6-DMAP) for 3 hours on the efficiency of ICSI, was compared in six experimen...

In this paper TiB2-TiC/Ni cermet with various Ni (20, 40 and 60 wt %) content were synthesized by mechanically activated self-propagating synthesis (MASHS) and effect of the addition of Ni on synthesis parameters and microstructure of synthesized samples were investigated. First raw materials (B4C, Ti and Ni) milled in Ar atmosphere. Then milling powders analyzed by XRD. In next step powders sy...
