The method of nanoscaled sodium dodecahydro-closo-dodecaborate Na2[B12H12] synthesis is presented. The composite is heated to 200°C to yield the desired product, forming with the introduction of triethyl- ammonium salt [Et3NH]2[B12H12] into the silicate matrix of a sodium liquid glass. The morphology and phase composition of the synthesized sample are studied through SEM and X-ray diffraction methods, in comparison to those of a standard salt sample Na2[B12H12]. Based on the obtained data, the sample under study is an amorphous composite, on the surface of which nanoscale crystals of Na2[B12H12] form.

AbstractSeparated liquid highâlevel radioactive waste (HLW) fractions, in particular, about 100 l of 137Cs strip product with activity up to ∼ 100 Ci/l (3.7 TBq/l) have been produced during the development and testing of partitioning technology and temporary stored at “V.G. Khlopin Radium Institute” (SaintâPetersburg, Russia). The benchâscale experimental unit designed for operation in the hot cell was developed for 137Cs strip product solidification with using of alumina silicate porous inorganic material (PIM) called Gubka.Conditions of saturation, drying and calcinations of the salts into Gubka pores were optimized and the operations under remote control regime were executed during tests with using of simulated strip product doped with 137Cs. The volume reduction coefficients were equal by a factor of 3.2â3.9 and 137Cs discharge into offâgas system was not detected. 137Cs leach rates from Gubka blocks after calcination at 800 °C were 1.0â1.5*10-3 g/m2*day.

The increasing use of biomass and waste derived fuels in combustion challenges the chemical durability of refractories. Durability of an alumina refractory was studied in a chemically aggressive environment. A mixture of potassium chloride and carbonate (molar ratio 1:9) was placed on the sample and heated at 700-1000°C in an electric laboratory furnace in air for one week. Cross-sections of the samples were studied by SEM-EDXA to determine penetration of potassium in the refractory. Potassium was found only in the silicate matrix phase of the alumina refractory. Penetration of potassium decreased steeply from the surface to 1 mm, after which the decrease was linear but varied with temperature. At 700 and 800°C the thickness of the matrix layer that had reacted with potassium was 3 mm, while the layer was thinner at 900 and 1000°C. At the higher temperatures a glassy layer consisting of K2O, Na2O, CaO and SiO2 formed on the refractory surface. At 900°C the thickness of the surface layer was of 10μm, while a 200μm layer was measured at 1000°C. The procedure used in this work can be used to develop a laboratory scale method to be used to study corrosion of refractories in biomass combustion devices.

Introduction. Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) is a tricalcium-based silicate, dicalcium silicate matrix. Despite its good biologic properties, some clinicians still claim to have difficulties in handling MTA after its preparation due to its sandy consistency. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the physicochemical properties and cytotoxicity of MTA Repair HP (Angelus, Londrina, PR, Brazil) compared with MTA Angelus (Angelus, Londrina, PR, Brazil). Materials and Method. The properties assessed were particle size, setting time, flow, film thickness, radiopacity, water solubility, compressive strength, and cytotoxicity. Statistical analysis was performed considering p < 0.05 as statistically significant. Results. For radiopacity, water absorption and solubility MTA Repair HP were statistically similar to MTA Angelus. The MTA Angelus had statistically different film thickness values, higher than MTA Repair HP (p < 0.05). Besides, MTA Angelus showed a lower and statistically different compressive strength after 28 days than MTA Repair HP (p<0.05). Additionally, MTA Repair HP set more slowly (p < 0.05). Relative to cell viability, MTA Repair HP was statistically similar to MTA Angelus after 24 and 48 h in cell viability. Conclusions. The MTA Repair HP presented similar cell viability, lower film thickness, higher flow, setting time, and compressive strength values after 28 days than MTA Angelus. In general, the MTA Repair HP presented physicochemical and biological properties similar to the MTA Angelus.
