Nickel thin films have been electrodeposited without the use of an additional seed layer, on highly doped silicon wafers. These substrates conduct sufficiently well to allow deposition using a peripherical electrical contact on the wafer. Films 2 μm thick have been deposited using a nickel sulfamate bath on both n+and p+-type silicon wafers, where a series of trenches with different widths had ...

Intracellular nickel ions (Ni2+)have been shown to cause singlestrand breaks in DMA, that were rapidly repaired, and DNAprotein cross-links, that persisted for at least 24 h following removal of extracellular ionic nickel. In this study, we have used the techniques of alkaline elution, chromatin fractionation, and sodium dodecyl sulfate:polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis to examine the DNA-prot...

abstract: background: release of volatile organic compounds (vocs) in industrial and urban area have adverse effects on human health and  environment. the aim of this study was removal of gaseous toluene, as the most of pollutants among vocs, by using of tio 2 nanoparticles coated on nickel foam substrate. methods: tio 2 nanoparticles prepared by sol gel method and coated on nickel foam. morpho...

The ability of Clinoptilolite powder to adsorb Ni (II) ions from wastewater which was taken from a nickel plating factory was investigated through batch experiments. The Ni (II) adsorption was found to be dependent on mass of adsorbent, contact time, pH value of solution and the speed of agitation. The experimental isotherms data were fitted into Langmuir and Freundlich models. The monolayer ad...

Removal of dye from wastewater has been investigated using the electrocoagulation method. Batch experiment conducted to remove color synthetically prepared acid red 87dye wastewater. Stainless steel and nickel foam sheets are used as cathode anode, respectively. The effect some operating parameters, such current density, initial concentration supporting electrolyte concentration, on removal stu...

In dentistry, a variety of potentially allergenic metals are used, such as mercury, palladium, nickel, gold, chromium, cobalt and other metals. This paper describes a diagnostic approach from a dentist's point of view, which enables analysis of metals in a patient's oral cavity. If metal allergy is suspected, a micro analysis can be used to determine which metals are present in the restorations...

The synergistic effect of ultrasound, the heterogeneous Fenton reaction and photocatalysis was studied using a nickel foam (NF)-supporting TiO₂ system and rhodamine B (RhB) as a target. The NF-supporting TiO₂ system was prepared by depositing TiO₂ on the skeleton of NF repeatedly and then calcining it. To optimize the conditions and parameters, the catalytic activity was tested in four systems ...
