Synthesis of MOR Zeolite/Magnetite Composite via Seed Assisted Method.

MOR zeolite is an effective adsorbent for separating organic molecules from various solutions owing to its large windows of 0)65 × 0)70 nm and its relatively high silica-alumina ratio which provides higher hydrophobicity. Fine powdery MOR zeolite is desirable for adsorption of organic molecules considering its larger surface area; however, fine particles are difficult to remove from solutions after treatment. Intensification of magnetic susceptibility through combination with magnetic particles ensure quick and easy removal of fine adsorbents by magnetic force. Meanwhile, seed assisted method is a powerful technique to direct and accelerate zeolite synthesis by adding seed crystals into the precursor sol prior to hydrothermal synthesis. In this work, we selected magnetite as the magnetic particle and propose the hydrothermal synthesis of MOR zeolite/magnetite composite via seed assisted method for the first time. MOR zeolite/magnetite composite with high MOR zeolite crystallinity was obtained by synthesizing for only 6 hours at 463 K when adding seed crystals, while no sign of crystallization was observed even after 24 hours in their absence. In addition, pre-milling of seed crystals together with magnetite was found to be effective to incorporate magnetite into MOR zeolite during crystallization and to decrease the primary crystal size of the crystallized MOR zeolite.

Beta tricalcium phosphate ceramics with controlled crystal orientation fabricated by application of external magnetic field during the slip casting process.

Beta tricalcium phosphate (ß-TCP) is a resorbable bioceramic that has hitherto been utilized in the medical field. Since it crystallizes in the anisotropic hexagonal system, properties such as chemical and physical ones are expected to depend on its crystal axis direction and/or on its crystal plane (anisotropy). Control of crystal orientation is thus important when used in polycrystalline form. Meanwhile, application of a strong magnetic field has been found to be a promising technique to control crystal orientation of anisotropic shape or structured crystals. In this work, we attempted to fabricate ß-TCP ceramics with controlled crystal orientation by applying an external magnetic field during the slip casting process and subsequently sintering them at 1050°C, below the ß-α transition temperature. Application of a vertical magnetic field increased intensities of planes perpendicular to c-plane on the top surface, while a horizontal one with simultaneous mechanical mold rotation decreased it. These results indicated that crystal orientation of ß-TCP ceramics were successfully controlled by the external magnetic field and together that the magnetic susceptibility of ß-TCP is χ(c[perpendicular])>χ(c//).

[Handling of automated external defibrillator (AED)].

It is medical equipment in "Advanced managed care equipment and specific maintenance medical equipment" for around and the life support though is thought that AED operates if it always turns on power like the television not used by the sense like home appliance as a result of spreading in general widely. It is management that it is important to always check the expiration date etc. of the indicator and the articles of consumption of AED to use it at any time when AED is set up, and requested by those who set it up.

Control of nonmagnetic particles using a magnetic field.

A force and/or torque are induced in a material under the imposition of a magnetic field. Their magnitudes are different from those acting on the surrounding materials because of the difference in their physical properties. Therefore, a magnetic field is a powerful tool for controlling a second phase in a mother phase such as particles suspended in a liquid. In this paper, we focus on two processes. The first one is a novel method of magnetic filtration in which schwertmannite particles in wastewater are controlled using a magnetic field. The second one is a refining process for a metallic alloy structure during solidification in which solid particles suspended in the liquid phase are controlled using the force excited by the simultaneous imposition of a magnetic field and alternating current.
