Calcium hydroxyapatite (CHA) has been synthesized biomimetically using simulated body fluid (SBF) alone and in combination with Fetal Calf Serum (FCS) and Eagle’s Minimum Essential Medium (EMEM). Chemical composition of the used SBF is like composition of human plasma, with small differencies in some ions concentrations, and pH value was adju...

The samples of rolled copper were mechanically and electrochemically polished in suitable electrolytes for electrochemical polishing. These substrate surfaces that had been prepared in advance, served as the basis for depositing of copper layers from two baths, namely, from the basic electrolyte(OR) with the following composition: 240 g/dm3 Cu...

Increase of ecological awareness affected the realization of more strict laws concerning the environment, which are being imposed in many countries. It also affected lubricant area and tendency for decreased pollution that lubricants can induce if they are uncontrollably spread around. Earlier it was believed that biodegradability is the most impor...

The effect different deposition regimes (constant and reversing currents), on the powdered copper electrodeposits morphology were investigated. The morphology of electrodeposited copper powder was investigated using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The effect of the current amplitude, cathodic to anodic time ratio and period of the current wav...

Mineral base oils are extracted from oil fractions of naphta that has boiling point of over 350 °C, and contain different kinds of carbohydrates and hetero-compunds. Removal of unwanted compunds from mineral base oils in domestic rafineries is made by rafination of imported commercial clays. For ther eventual replacement there has been conducte...
