Thorium was precipitated from homogeneous solution by photochemical reduction of periodate to iodate in a solution containing thorium and perchloric acid, by means of a 2537 A low-pressure mercury vapour lamp. For weighing, the precipitate was redissolved, precipitated once as thorium hydroxide, and finally as thorium oxalate, which was ignited to thorium dioxide. Quantitative results were obtained in the range 35-180 mg of thorium.

The antiscale magnetic treatment (ASMT) claims to utilize magnetic field to combat scaling. However, its underlying mechanism, effectiveness, and reliability remain controversial. To address these contentious aspects, we analyze the influence of a magnetic field on the different stages of typical scale formation, using [Formula: see text] as a model scale.

Purpose: Gastrostomy is the commonly used enteral feeding technology. The clinical risks caused by tube dislodgement and peristomal site infection are the common complications before complete tract maturation after gastrostomy. However, there is currently no relevant research to promote gastrostomy wound treatment and tract maturation.

This article aims to present the redox aspects of lithium-ion batteries both from a thermodynamic and from a conductivity viewpoint. We first recall the basic definitions of the electrochemical potential of the electron, and of the Fermi level for a redox couple in solutions. The Fermi level of redox solids such as metal oxide particles is then discussed, and a Nernst equation is derived for two ideal systems, namely an ideally homogenous phase where the oxidised and reduced metal ions are homogeneously distributed and two segregated phases where the oxidised and the reduced metal ions are separated in two distinct phases such as observed, for example, in biphasic lithium iron phosphate.

Numerous problems, including weathering, cracks, leaks, and bending, among others, appear in concrete after construction. The optimum procedure for treating concrete cracks is the subject of this study. The research goal is to find potential crack treatment materials and analyze the effect on the properties of concrete caused by the addition of bacterial solution to the concrete mix along with a particular method of preparation of bacterial solution.

Separators are critical components of zinc-metal batteries (ZMBs). Despite their high ionic conductivity and excellent electrolyte retention, the widely used glass fiber (GF) membranes suffer from poor mechanical stability and cannot suppress dendrite growth, leading to rapid battery failure. Contrarily, polymer-based separators offer superior mechanical strength and facilitate more homogeneous zinc (Zn) deposition.
