Magnesium reacts slowly at lower temperatures to give the amide, as do all active metals this reaction is catalyzed by transition metal ions. Aluminum nitride [24304-00-5] AIN, barium nitride [12047-79-9] Ba2N2, calcium nitride [12013-82-0] Ca2N2, strontium nitride [12033-82-8], Sr2N2, and titanium nitride [25583-20-4], TiN, may be formed by heating the corresponding amides. 

Anhydrous BaCl2 exists as monoclinic or cubic crystals. The transition to cubic occurs at 925 °C. Barium chloride melts at 962°C the dihydrate, which has monoclinic crystals, loses water at 113 °C. Barium chloride, which is very hygroscopic, is sold in moisture-proof bags and steel or fiber dmms. 

Historically, materials based on doped barium titanate were used to achieve dielectric constants as high as 2,000 to 10,000. The high dielectric constants result from ionic polarization and the stress enhancement of k associated with the fine-grain size of the material. The specific dielectric properties are obtained through compositional modifications, ie, the inclusion of various additives at different doping levels. For example, additions of strontium titanate to barium titanate shift the Curie point, the temperature at which the ferroelectric to paraelectric phase transition occurs and the maximum dielectric constant is typically observed, to lower temperature as shown in Figure 1 (2). 

This kind of microstructure also influences other kinds of conductors, especially those with positive (PTC) or negative (NTC) temperature coefficients of resistivity. For instance, PTC materials (Kulwicki 1981) have to be impurity-doped polycrystalline ferroelectrics, usually barium titanate (single crystals do not work) and depend on a ferroelectric-to-paraelectric transition in the dopant-rich grain boundaries, which lead to enormous increases in resistivity. Such a ceramic can be used to prevent temperature excursions (surges) in electronic devices. 

Goldschmidt predicted from his empirical rule that calcium chloride would not have the fluorite structure, and he states that on investigation he has actually found it not to crystallize in the cubic system. Our theoretical deduction of the transition radius ratio allows us to predict that of the halides of magnesium, calcium, strontium and barium only calcium fluoride, strontium fluoride and chloride, and barium fluoride, chloride,... 

Between barium (Group 2, element 56) and lutetium (Group 3, element 71), the 4f orbitals fill with electrons, giving rise to the lanthanides, a set of 14 metals named for lanthanum, the first member of the series. The lanthanides are also called the rare earths, although except for promethium they are not particularly rare. Between radium (Group 2, element 88) and lawrenclum (Group 3, element 103), are the 14 actinides, named for the first member of the set, actinium. The lanthanides and actinides are also known as the inner transition metals. 

The difference in catalytic activity between the La- and the Ba-based hexa-aluminates results from the following reasons the first difference is the valence of cation in the mirror pleuie between tri-valent lanthanum ion and di-valent barium ion. The second is the crystal structure between magnetoplumbite and P-alumina, which are different in the coordination of ions and concentration of Frenkel-type defect in mirror plane. The redox cycle of transition metal in hexa-aluminate lattice, which closely related with catalytic activity, is affected sensitively with these two factors.

In the early 1980s, the world witnessed the sale of the first personal computers. Its transition from the relatively bulky and slow first units to the sleek, speed demons has made the computer truly revolutionary. With each improvement in computers, however, comes the increasing problem of what to do with the ever increasing number of computer e-wastes. The U.S. EPA estimates that nearly 250 million computers will become obsolete in the next five years in the United States alone. Unfortunately, only approximately 10% of these old computers that are retired each year are being recycled. This presents a substantial concern because toxic elements such as lead, cadmium, mercury, barium, chromium, beryllium as well as flame retardant, and phosphor are contained in a typical computer and there would be potential harm if there was a release of these elements into the environment.1... 

Gelatine explosives, initiated by commercial detonators, will normally fire at the low velocity of detonation initially, although this may well build up quite quickly into the high velocity. For some applications a high velocity of detonation is essential. This can be ensured by the addition of barium sulphate, or other material with density exceeding 2-8, in a fine form. Such additives have the property of ensuring rapid transition to the high velocity of detonation. This is, for example, of particular importance when the explosive is to be fired under a hydrostatic head, as in submarine work. 

The polybutadienes prepared with these barium t-butoxide-hydroxide/BuLi catalysts are sufficiently stereoregular to undergo crystallization, as measured by DTA ( 8). Since these polymers have a low vinyl content (7%), they also have a low gl ass transition temperature. At a trans-1,4 content of 79%, the Tg is -91°C and multiple endothermic transitions occur at 4°, 20°, and 35°C. However, in copolymers of butadiene (equivalent trans content) and styrene (9 wt.7. styrene), the endothermic transitions are decreased to -4° and 25°C. Relative to the polybutadiene, the glass transition temperature for the copolymer is increased to -82°C. The strain induced crystallization behavior for a SBR of similar structure will be discussed after the introduction of the following new and advanced synthetic rubber. 

Direct visualization of femtosecond filamentation is crucial to understanding the phenomenon. As the energy of a single infrared photon is much too small to effect an electronic transition, one has to take recourse to multiphoton absorption induced fluorescence to come up with a scheme to directly visualize filamentation in condensed media. One such scheme that has been successfully implemented involves the use of a crystal of barium fluoride, a material that is known to be very good scintillator [38]. 

In contrast to the ionic complexes of sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, barium, and cadmium, the ease with which transition metal complexes are formed (high constant of complex formation) can partly be attributed to the suitably sized atomic radii of the corresponding metals. Incorporated into the space provided by the comparatively rigid phthalocyanine ring, these metals fit best. An unfavorable volume ratio between the space within the phthalocyanine ring and the inserted metal, as is the case with the manganese complex, results in a low complex stability. 

Period 5 (group 3 [IIIB] to group 12 [IIB]) is located in the second row of the transition elements and represents 10 of the transition metals to nonmetals found in the periodical table of chemical elements. This period is also known to include some of the so-called rare-earth elements. Most of the rare-earths are found in the lanthanide series, which follows barium (period 6, group 3). (Check the periodic table to locate the major rare-earth elements in the lanthanide series. These are addressed in a later section of the book.)... 

Stimulates gastric emptying and intestinal transit of barium in cases where delayed emptying interferes with radiological examination of the stomach or small intestine. Unlabeled uses Used to improve lactation. Doses of 30 to 45 mg/day have increased milk secretion, possibly by elevating serum prolactin levels (see Warnings). Also for treatment of postoperative gastric bezoars (10 mg 3 or 4 times daily). 

The IR spectra of NDCM salts exhibit cyanide stretching absorption bands in the 2250-2210 cm region and three broad absorption bands associated with the coupling of the v(NO) and v(CC) modes in the 1375-1210 cm region (Table 8). The electronic spectra of the NDCM salts exhibit characteristic jt jt and n n electronic transitions at ca 300 and 480 nm, respectively. In aqueous solution the UV-vis spectra of, e.g., the lithium and barium salts exhibit an additional absorption at 401 nm, which can be attributed to the solvatochromic effect of water. 

Film Critical Current Densities Critical current densities of thin films have been reported by several hundreds of papers a few representative but by no means inclusive are noted here in addition to those mentioned above. Desirable attributes of thin films for technology are high transition temperature to zero resistance, high critical current, low substrate temperature during deposition, no high temperature post anneal, and atomically smooth surface without pinholes. A thermal coevaporation of yttrium, barium, and copper in an oxygen atmosphere have been deposited by Berberich (34) on substrates at 650°C with Tc s of 91 K on MgO and 89 K on SrTiOs without post anneal. Although critical currents of 106 A/cm2 were obtained at 4 K, values of 104 A/cm2 were found at 77 K. However,...
