New ternary and quaternary nitride halides, Ba(2)N(X,X') (X = F, Cl, Br; X' = Br, I), have been synthesized from the high temperature reactions of barium subnitride with the respective barium halides under an inert atmosphere. The former include the first fully characterized barium nitride halides for X other than F, and the latter are the first examples of barium nitride mixed halides. The variation in structure with composition has been investigated by powder X-ray and powder neutron diffraction techniques. The heavier ternary and quaternary nitride halides (X, X' = Cl, Br, I) crystallize in the hexagonal space group R3m, with the anti-α-NaFeO(2) structure. Ba(2)NF forms with both an anti-α-NaFeO(2) structure, in which N(3-) and F(-) are ordered and an anion-disordered simple rock salt structure. The hexagonal polymorph of Ba(2)NF is the only example to date of a nitride fluoride adopting this layered structure. Both the ternary and the quaternary compounds display very weak, temperature independent paramagnetism.

The durability of reinforced concrete is associated with several factors that can trigger the corrosion of reinforcement bars. Among these factors, the most significant are chloride-ion attack and carbonation. This study evaluated, through accelerated testing, self-compacting concretes (SCCs) with reduced cement content in binary, ternary, and quaternary mixtures using high-early-strength Portland cement, fly ash (FA), metakaolin (MK), and hydrated lime (HL).

The discovery of novel materials is crucial for developing new functional materials. This study introduces a predictive model designed to forecast complex multi-component oxide compositions, leveraging data derived from simpler pseudo-binary systems. By applying tensor decomposition and machine learning techniques, we transformed pseudo-binary oxide compositions from the Inorganic Crystal Structure Database (ICSD) into tensor representations, capturing key chemical trends such as oxidation states and periodic positions.

Botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs), ricin, and many other biological toxins are called AB toxins possessing heterogeneous A and B subunits. We propose herein a quick and safe sensing approach to AB toxins based on their unique quaternary structures. The proposed approach utilizes IgG antibodies against their A-subunits in combination with those human cell-membrane glycolipids that act as the natural ligands of B-subunits.

The pristine phases SS1(ZnO), SS2(MnO), and SS3 (CuO) photocatalysts and mixed phases of ZnO-based nanocomposites were synthesized by the sol-gel method. Whereas SS4 (g-CN) was prepared through polymerization of urea. The synthesized photocatalysts were characterized using TGA-DTA, XRD, DRS, PL, DLS, FTIR, SEM, TEM, and HRTEM.
