Iron picrate (FePic) was synthesized under conditions similar to those that result in the natural deterioration of chemical weapons. Its thermal hazard was investigated by comparing it with iron picrate obtained by the chemical synthesis method (FePic(Ba)). FePic has eight

Particles of carbonated barium-calcium hydroxyapatite solid solutions (BaCaHap) with different Ba/(Ba+Ca) (X(Ba)) atomic ratios were prepared by a wet method at 100 degrees C and characterized by various means. The crystal phases and structures of the products strongly depended on

High refractive index (RI) glasses prepared from local quartz sand and compounds of heavy elements, such as, barium carbonate, lead oxide, and bismuth oxide as major ingredients were investigated using Raman spectroscopy. The results showed changes in glass structures of

In December 2003, the USEPA released an amended list of 15 "candidate pollutants for exposure and hazard screening" with regard to biosolids land application, including Ba. Therefore, we decided to monitor soil Ba concentrations from a dryland wheat (Triticum aestivum

We discovered that micelles of a thermo-responsive polypeptide-based copolymer are able to direct growth of barium carbonate (BaCO(3)) in the form of nanobelts. The BaCO(3) nanobelts tend to grow around a formed crystal, and curl into a spiral superstructure.
