Synthesis,thermal decomposition and crystal structure of copper (Ⅱ)α,β-unsaturated carboxylate with urea

A detailed synthesis is described for binuclear cage ternary complexes Cu2A4 [(NH2)2CO]2, where A = CH2 =CH-COO and CH2 =C(CH3)-COO- . Elemental analysis and thermal analysis have been investigated. The molecular structure of Cu2 (CH2 = CH-COO)4[(NH2)2CO]2 was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The material forms blue crystal with tetragronal symmetry, space group P42/n, a = b = 1.239 35(6) nm, c = 1.398 05 (16) nm, Z = 4. There exists a magnetic exchange interaction between the two paramagnetic Cu atoms. The Cu-Cu bond length is 0.260 94 nm.

A β-type TiNbZr alloy with low modulus and high strength for biomedical applications

The effect of thermo-mechanical treatment on the mechanical properties of a novel β-type Ti–36Nb–5Zr(wt%) alloy has been investigated.The solution treated alloy consists of β and α″ phases and exhibits a two-stage yielding with a low yield stress(around 100 MPa). After cold rolling at a reduction of 87.5% and subsequent annealing treatment at 698 K for 25 min, a fine microstructure with nanosized α precipitates distributed in small β grains as well as high density of dislocations was obtained to achieve a yield strength of 720 MPa and a ultimate tensile strength of 860 MPa. In spite of the formation of α precipitates, the β-stabilizers are not enriched in the parent β matrix due to the short duration and low temperature of the thermal treatment, resulting in a low chemical stability of β phase. The low stability of β phase and the small volume fraction of α precipitates produce a low Young’s modulus of 48 GPa. Such an excellent combination of low elastic modulus and high strength in mechanical properties indicates great potential for biomedical applications.     

Non-viral gene delivery carrier of probe type host molecule ——Interactions between DNA and β-cyclodextrin derivative complexes (I)

GENE THERAPY IS A COMMON PROCESS TO DELIVER EXTRIN- SIC GENES INTO TARGET CELLS FOR FURTHER GENE EXPRESSION, FOR THE PURPOSE OF TREATING DISEASES. A WELL DESIGNED GENE DELIVERY CARRIER CAN EFFICIENTLY PACKAGE AND PRO- TECT NUCLEIC ACID FROM BEING DIGESTED BY A VARIETY OF ENZYMES IN VIVO AND SHOULD BE ABLE TO SPECIFICALLY LO- CATE EXTRINSIC GENES INTO THE TARGET ORGANISMS.

A new section of Kaili Formation （Cambrian） and a biostratigraphic study of the boundary interval across the undefined Cambrian Series 2 and Series 3 at Jianshan,Jianhe County,China with a discussion of global correlation based on the first appearance datum of Oryctocephalus indicus （Reed, 1910）

A trilobite biostratigraphic study of a new section of the Kaili Formation at Jianshan, Chuandong Village, Jianhe County, Guizhou is reported. Additional occurrences of key species associated with the Ovatoryctocara granulata-Bathynotus holopygus Zone and the overlying Oryctocephalus indicus Zone that were originally defined from the trilobite assemblages at the WuliuZengjiayan section of the Kaili are reported from this new section. The first appearance datum （FAD） of Oryctocephalus indicus occurs at the 44.52 m above the base of the unit. Based on study of abundant specimens （n = 800） from the Kaili Formation, we argue that Oryctocephalus indicus is a widespread taxon with a global distribution. O. reticulatus （Lermontova, 1940） from the middle part of the Kounamkites Zone of the Amganian Stage in the Molodo River region of Siberia and O. americanus （Sundberg and McCollum, 2003） from Nevada, North America are similar to representatives of O. indicus which occur in the O. indicus Zone of the Kaili Formation. O. reticulatus and O. americanus are here synonymized with O. indicus （Reed, 1910）. This study strengthens the Wuliu-Zengjiayan section of the Kaili Formation as a candidate section for a Global Stratotype for the base of the unnamed Cambrian Series 3.
