ABSTRACTArtificial hydroxyapatite with chemical formula of Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2 is the best as bioceramics due to its composition and structure being similar with inorganic part of hard tissues. The alloys especially with Ti, Ni and Co contents are very promising as a kind of biomaterials due to their high strength and high toughness. The alloys as biomaterials need good final surface properties by proper surface treatment. By using clinical treatment with machining, cleaning, sterilization, we obtained Ti-oxides surface with 4-6 nm in thickness which are very good in property with chemical composition of TiO2 + Ti2O3 + TiO. However, the Ti-alloy with an artificial hydroxyapatite surface is even much better than that with the surface of Ti-oxides due to its high bioactivity. Human bones and human teeth with a chemical composition of Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2 and the structure of hydroxyapatite are commonly considered as bio-mineral. In nature the pears and shells are also a kind of bio-minerals. Our observations showed that human bone is a complex material with a layered composite structure. The hydroxyapatite mineral crystals that reinforce the organic proteinceous component are about 35 nm wide, irregular, plate-like crystals reside initially in the hole zones of the collagen microfibris: later fill available space within the collagen fibrils. At present paper nanostructure features of both bioceramics and biominerals have been characterized with comparison between each other's.

Derrick and substructure is one of rig’s core equipment components, and it is also the most important weight component of rig. The working environment of derrick and substructure is very serious, whose material should has high strength, excellent plasticity, toughness and weldability property. In this paper, the chemical composition, micro-structure, tensile property, impact property, hardness and weldability of high strength pipeline steel with strength grades of X70 (485MPa)~ X100(690MPa) were systematically analyzed. The analysis and study of the service environment of rig derrick and substructure as well as the technical requirements of the material, showed that the performance of high strength pipeline steel was obviously better than that of the same grade high strength low alloy structural steel used in rig derrick and substructure at present, and it can fully meet the technical requirement of rig derrick and substructure. The application of high strength pipeline steel to rig derrick and substructure will improve the service property, optimize the design , and fully ensure the service safety of rig derrick and substructure.

The property of brittleness for polymers and polymer-based materials (PBMs) is an important factor in determining the potential uses of a material. Brittleness of polymers may also impact the ease and modes of polymer processing, thereby affecting economy of production. Brittleness of PBMs can be correlated with certain other properties and features of polymers; to name a few, connections to free volume, impact strength, and scratch recovery have been explored. A common thread among all such properties is their relationship to chemical composition and morphology. Through a survey of existing literature on polymer brittleness specifically combined with relevant reports that connect additional materials and properties to that of brittleness, it is possible to identify chemical features of PBMs that are connected with observable brittle behavior. Relations so identified between chemical composition and structure of PBMs and brittleness are described herein, advancing knowledge and improving the capacity to design new and to choose among existing polymers in order to obtain materials with particular property profiles.

In this research paper, development of a procedure of isolation of exopolysaccharides from frost-damaged beet and an analysis of structural and chemical composition of polymers isolated from sugar beet of different origin are presented. Total acid hydrolysis degradation integrated with HPAEC-ED analysis has been utilized to confirm the monomeric composition of the separated polysaccharides. The implementation of NMR spectral analysis and SEC chromatography of the structure of exopolysaccharides has been investigated. The results demonstrate that the chemical composition and structure of exopolysaccharides depend on their origin. Typical exopolysaccharides from Central European beet roots consist mainly of glucose monomers – and they have low branched structure – about 90% of α-1,6 linkage which is typical for dextran. The exopolysaccharides isolated from Swedish beet are characterized by 50–60% fructose monomers. They contain only about 65% α-1,6 linkages. Exopolysaccharides extracted from various origin beet differ in average molecular mass. The molecular distribution is not normal.
