Cubic layer-structured calcite and spherical vaterite were successfully prepared in the present of PS-b-PAA at room temperature. The products were characterized with scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and flourier transform infrared spectrum (FI-IR). The characterized results revealed that the PS-b-PAA concentration had a considerable influence on the morphologies and crystal phase transformation. With the PS-b-PAA concentration increasing, the crystal phase of CaCO3particles would have a significant transition from calcite to vaterite, and the morphologies also showed remarkable changes from cubic layer-superstructure to spherical shape. Furthermore, cubic structured CaCO3 particles with a larger size of ca. 100 μm in side length could be prepared by gas diffusion method, indicating that the “crew-cut” micelles are able to result in long-live crystal active sites so that novel large-scale inorganic materials might be prepared.

In vitro and in vivo studies were made of the equilibrium distribution of radioxenon in various organs and tissues of the dog and the xenon uptake compared with a water standard. Tissue-blood partition coefficients were calculated. The radioxenon-hemoglobin association curve was determined for dog and human hemoglobin and methemoglobin. The uptake of radioxenon by blood, due in particular to xenon-hemoglobin affinity, was appreciably greater than uptake either by water or by most other body tissues. Fat and brain were notable exceptions. Consequently, tissue-blood partition coefficients were about eight for fat, one for brain, and significantly less than one for other tissues studied. Acceptable accuracy for blood flow determinations with a radioxenon inert gas diffusion method would seem to depend on the use of a partition coefficient correction in turn corrected at least for the existing hemoglobin concentration. The uptake of xenon by hemoglobin had the characteristics of a solubility or a quasi-solubility phenomenon. The problem of the nature of the interaction is apparently not resolved.

Transparent hybrid organic-inorganic ureasil xerogels with embedded PbS nanoparticles were prepared by exposing the xerogels doped with lead (II) nitrate to hydrogen sulphide atmosphere. Absorbance spectrum of the nonocomposites showed well defined peaks at 560 nm and 370 nm attributed to 1s(v) - 1s(c) and 1s(v) - 2p(c) exciton transitions, respectively. After four days of thermal treatment at 50 °C under argon atmosphere the obtained materials showed enhanced photoluminescence response in the near infra-red region.

Pure metallic nickel nanoparticles, spherical shape have been successfully synthesized by the chemical reduction of nickel chloride with hydrazine at room temperature without any protective agent and inert gas protection. X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) were employed to characterize the nickel nanoparticles and of course, the magnetic properties were also measured. This synthetic method is proven to be simple and very facile. And it’s very interesting that the obtained nickel nanoparticle can be isolated in solid states and stabilized for several months in atmosphere.
