NaGaPOF - a KTiOPO-structured solid sodium-ion conductor.

Advanced ionic conductors are crucial for a large variety of contemporary technologies spanning solid state ion batteries, fuel cells, gas sensors, water desalination, . In this work, we report on a new member of KTiOPO-structured materials, NaGaPOF, with sodium-ion conductivity. NaGaPOF has been obtained for the first time a facile two-step synthesis consisting of a hydrothermal preparation of an ammonia-based precursor, NHGaPOF, followed by an ion exchange reaction with NaNO.

Spectroscopic Study of Five-Coordinated Thermal Treated Alumina Formation: FTIR and NMR Applying.

This work represents research into materials designed to improve the environment. The study was carried out on aluminum hydroxide xerogels and alumina catalysts obtained by the Controlled Double Jet Precipitation (CDJP) process at different pH values. It has been shown that the pH of the CDJP process determines the content of aluminum-bound nitrate ions in the aluminum hydroxide.

Genetic Biomarkers of Antipsychotic-Induced Prolongation of the QT Interval in Patients with Schizophrenia.

Antipsychotics (AP) induced prolongation of the QT interval in patients with schizophrenia (Sch) is an actual interdisciplinary problem as it increases the risk of sudden death syndrome. Long QT syndrome (LQTS) as a cardiac adverse drug reaction is a multifactorial symptomatic disorder, the development of which is influenced by modifying factors (APs' dose, duration of APs therapy, APs polytherapy, and monotherapy, etc.) and non-modifying factors (genetic predisposition, gender, age, etc.

New Li-Mg phosphates with a 3D framework: experimental and ab initio calculations.

Two new lithium-magnesium phosphates LiMg(PO)(PO) and Li(MgScLi)(PO)(PO) were synthesized by a solid-phase method. Using high-resolution time-of-flight neutron powder diffraction (TOF NPD) and X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), we established that these phosphates have a Pnma orthorhombic structure with the cell parameters a = 9.14664(5) Å, b = 18.
