ABSTRACTRecently manganese substituted I-III-VI2 compounds have been investigated. Their magnetic properties are similar to the paramagnetic transistion metal ion substituted II-VI materials, but their crystal structure is non-cubic resulting in anisotropies in their physico-chemical properties that do not exist in the zincblende structure diluted magnetic semiconductors (DMS) materials. In this paper, we report the phase relations on the pseudobinary cut CuInTe2-MnIn2Te4 based on x-ray diffraction and differential thermal analysis data. The range of chalcopyrite structure alloys of composition Cu1−xMnx□xIn2Te4 is limited to x<0.52 due to an eutectic at x=0.74, T= 734°C. A second eutectic exists at x = 0.97, T = 737.5°C. A heretofore unknown congruently melting compound exists in between the two eutectics at x= 0.85, Tm = 760°C. Also, the thus far unknown melting point of the compound MnIn2Te4 was determined (740°C ). Based on the analyses of the first to freeze parts of directionally solidified melts in this range of liquidus compositions by inductively coupled plasma emission spectroscopy the solidus is constructed.

Abstract Background The demand for fake braces usage in Southeast Asia are increasing but lack of certification and information on fake braces as medical devices from regulated bodies raised a concern towards its safety. The aim of this study was to determine the types of metal ion leachable from removable fake braces based on heavy metal ions present in metallic materials, immersed in simulated body fluid (SBF) and analysed using inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy. Methods Three sets of fake braces and one control were dissembled to only their brackets and archwires and immersed separately in SBF. They were placed in an incubator shaker at a temperature of 37 °C at 50 rpm. A 3.0 ml measurement of SBF was taken out from the sample containers at days 7, 14 and 28 and kept at − 20 °C for further analysis. Data were analysed using SPSS version 26.0 (IBM, Armonk, USA) (P < 0.05). Descriptive and one-way ANOVA analyses with Bonferroni post hoc tests were used to assess the significant differences between the metal ions released in SBF from the control samples and fake braces. Results All 23 elements under investigation except Si ions were detected from the control samples and fake braces. There were significant increased K ions and reduced levels of Mg ions from the fake archwires and brackets. Most ions released were less than 10 mg/L (Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Mo, Cd, Pb, Al) or 1 mg/L (Li, Ba) into the SBF medium. Conclusion There were significant release of Ca and K ions from the fake samples. Elements such as Li, Ba, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Mo, Cd and Sb had increased in concentration at day 7 and the concentration plateaued until day 28.

Abstract The phase relations in the Ce2Co17-Sm2Co17 system over the whole concentration range have been studied by means of Xray powder diffraction, differential thermal analysis and scanning electron microscopy equipped with energy dispersive Xray spectroscopy. The X-ray powder diffraction results reveal that all the alloys (Ce1-xSmx)2Co17 are similar to the end member of the investigated system, Sm2Co17. It is implied that continuous solid solutions are formed in this system. The lattice parameters and unit cell volumes of (Ce1-xSmx)2Co17 solid solutions increase linearly with x increasing from 0 to 1.0. The occurrence of the polymorphic transformation reaction α-(Ce, Sm)2Co17 = β-(Ce, Sm)2Co17 is confirmed in the Ce2Co17-Sm2Co17 system, but its transition temperature cannot be determined. The differential thermal analysis measurements show that both the decomposition temperature and the Curie temperature of the (Ce1-xSmx)2Co17 alloys increase gradually with increasing Sm content. Based on the X-ray powder diffraction results and differential thermal analysis data, the tentative vertical section of Ce2Co17-Sm2Co17 pseudobinary system has been constructed.

Cyclodextrin (CD)-based polymers are known to efficiently form molecular inclusion complexes with various organic and inorganic guest compounds. In addition, they also have a great potential as metal complexes because deprotonated hydroxyls can strongly bind metal ions under alkaline conditions. The range of environmental conditions for polycyclodextrin/metal ion complexation can be extended by the polymerization of CDs with polyacids. This article describes the preparation and characterization of a new type of poly(β-cyclodextrin) (Poly-βCD) sub-micrometric fibers and explores their potential as metal ion sorbents. A water-soluble hyper-branched β-cyclodextrin polymer was blended with poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and here used to improve the mechanical and morphological features of the fibers. Solutions with a different Poly-βCD/PVA ratio were electrospun, and the fibers were cross-linked by a post-spinning thermal treatment at 160 °C to ensure non-solubility in water. The fiber morphology was analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) before and after the curing process, and physical-chemical properties were studied by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The capability of the insoluble cyclodextrin-based fibers to remove heavy metals from wastewaters was investigated by testing the adsorption of Cu2+ and Cd2+ using inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES). The results suggest that the poly(β-cyclodextrin)/poly(vinyl alcohol) sub-micrometric fibers can complex metal ions and are especially effective Cu2+ sorbents, thus opening new perspectives to the development of fibers and membranes capable of removing both metal ions and organic pollutants.

AbstractDiluted magnetic semiconductors (DMS) have been explored extensively, because of their potential application in spintronic devices. We studied the structural optical and magnetic properties of Ti1-xMxO2 (M= Fe, Mn, Co; x = 0.00, 0.05, 0.08, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20, 0.25, 0.30), thin films by sol-gel process and deposited using spin coating on Pt (Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si) and quartz substrates. X-ray diffraction studies and Raman spectroscopy reveal anatase and rutile phases of the synthesized films when annealed at 500 and 10000 C, respectively. Optical transmission measurements show high degree of transparency that decreases with increase in transition metal ion concentration. The films show room temperature ferromagnetism, suggesting their potential in spin based heterojunction devices.
