The electrophoretic mobility of variously treated bone specimens, with and without bone morphogenetic activity, has been measured in physiological solutions. The Bone Morphogenetic Principle appears to be associated with a minimum negative surface charge on the implant that corresponds to that of normal undemineralized cortical bone in saline. Demineralization of cortical bone in 0.6 N HCI at 2 degrees consistently increases the bone negative surface charge, and biologically produces an implant with morphogenetic activity. It is suggested that through the mediation of the positively charges ionic layer surrounding the negative implant that the negatively charged mesenchymal cell is able to reside in very close contact with the surfaces of the implant. The binding force can be expected to be directly proportional to the degree of negativity of the implant. However, implants with a positive zeta potentaial will be surrounded by ions with a net negative charge so discouraging the stable positioning of mesenchymal cells in close contact with the implant. The negative surface charge corresponding to that of untreated cortical bone is apparently borderline in permitting such a close contact for a sufficiently long period of time for differentiation to follow.

The reduction of CO mediated by transition metals has garnered significant interest, yet little is known about the reduction of CO using f-element compounds. Herein, the reduction of CO to CO by tetravalent uranium (U) compound UO is investigated via matrix isolation infrared spectroscopy and quantum chemical study. Our results reveal that a stable carbonate intermediate OUCO () can be prepared at low temperatures (4-12 K).

In the current investigation, the efficiency inhibition of two newly synthesized bi-pyrazole derivatives, namely 2,3-bis[(bis((1 H-pyrazol-1-yl) methyl) amino)] pyridine (Tetra-Pz-Ortho) and 1,4-bis[(bis((1 H-pyrazol-1-yl) methyl) amino)] benzene (Tetra-Pz-Para) for corrosion of carbon steel (C&S) in 1 M HCl medium was evaluated. A Comparative study of inhibitor effect of Tetra-Pz-Ortho and Tetra-Pz-Para was conducted first using weight loss method and EIS (Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy) and PDP (Potentiodynamic Polarisation) techniques. Tetra-Pz-Ortho and Tetra-Pz-Para had a maximum inhibition efficacy of 97.

MXenes, as a novel two-dimensional lamellar material, has attracted much attention. However, MXenes lamellar are prone to collapse and stacking under hydrogen bonding and interlayer van der Waals forces, which affects their electrochemical and capacitive deionization performance. A three-dimensional Ni-1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate/TiCT (Ni-BTC/TiCT) composite electrode material was developed to enhance the electrochemical and capacitive deionization performance.

Improving interfacial stability between cathode active material (CAM) and solid electrolyte (SE) is vital for developing high-performance all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs), with compatibility issues among the cell components representing a major challenge. CAM surface coating with a chemically inert ion conductor is a promising approach to suppress side reactions occurring at the cathode interfaces. Another strategy to mitigate mechanical degradation involves utilizing single-crystalline particle morphologies.
