Abstract Ti2Ni alloy pellets were produced by mechanical alloying and hot pressing at 750°C for 0.5 h in vacuum. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that, after 8 h of milling, a starting mixture of elements mostly decomposed into an amorphous phase. Obtained powders and flakes have cleavage fracture morphology with huge number of dimples with different sizes. Hot pressing of materials caused formation of Ti2Ni main phase. Porosity of pellets strongly depended on size of agglomerates and pressure of pressing. Ti2Ni pellets were used as negative electrodes for Ni-MHx batteries. Maximum measured discharge capacity of studied materials was 220 mAh/g. Electrochemical properties resulted from size of agglomerates, degree of oxidation and pressure of pressing.

With an 11Ah LiMn2O4 battery as the object of study, through disassembling the battery after normal charge and normal discharge as well as over-charge and over-discharge, and using such methods as x-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope, this study explores the micro-changes that happened to the material for the anode and cathode of this lithium battery after over-charge and over-discharge, and provides the measures to prevent batteries from charge and discharge, so as to avoid potential safety problems during the use of lithium batteries.

Studies of the nature of a surface, either metallic or nonmetallic, in the past, have been limited to the instrumentation available for these measurements. In the past, optical microscopy, replica transmission electron microscopy, electron or X-ray diffraction and optical or X-ray spectroscopy have provided the means of surface characterization. Actually, some of these techniques are not purely surface; the depth of penetration may be a few thousands of an inch. Within the last five years, instrumentation has been made available which now makes it practical for use to study the outer few 100A of layers and characterize it completely from a chemical, physical, and crystallographic standpoint. The scanning electron microscope (SEM) provides a means of viewing the surface of a material in situ to magnifications as high as 250,000X.

The understanding of ribosome structure has advanced considerably in the last several years. Biochemists have characterized the constituent proteins and rRNA's of ribosomes. Complete sequences have been determined for some ribosomal proteins and specific antibodies have been prepared against all E. coli small subunit proteins. In addition, a number of naturally occuring systems of three dimensional ribosome crystals which are suitable for structural studies have been observed in eukaryotes. Although the crystals are, in general, too small for X-ray diffraction, their size is ideal for electron microscopy.

Scanning microscopy was used to study the surface of human gallstones and the surface of fractures. The specimens were obtained by operation, washed with water, dried at room temperature and shadowcasted with carbon and aluminum. Most of the specimens belong to patients from a series of X-ray follow-up study, examined during the last twenty years. So it was possible to evaluate approximately the age of these gallstones and to get information on the intensity of growing and solving.Cholesterol, a group of bile pigment substances and different salts of calcium, are the main components of human gallstones. By X-ray diffraction technique, infra-red spectroscopy and by chemical analysis it was demonstrated that all three components can be found in any gallstone. In the presence of water cholesterol crystallizes in pane-like plates of the triclinic crystal system.
