The Effect of Additives on Properties of Ceramics Based on Zinc Oxide

Uniformly Mesocaged Cubic Fd3m Monoliths as Modal Carriers for Optical Chemosensors

“…In this respect, development of optical sensors for determination of toxic ions to the environment such as the Bi(III) ion target is particularly crucial. However, due to the common use of Bi(III) ions in industry, such as in semiconductors, cosmetic preparations, alloys, and metallurgical additives, and in the preparation and recycling of uranium nuclear fuels, direct determination of trace amounts of Bi(III) ions in seawater and biological treatments is urgently needed . In addition, bismuth compounds have been used orally for their astringent and antidiarrheal properties in a wide range of gastrointestinal tract disorders.…”

Extractive Spectrophotometric Determination of Bismuth(III) in Water Using Some Ion Pairing Reagents

“…Bismuth has been widely used for various industries e.g. pigment industry for coloring plastics and paints, batteries 2 and ceramics 3,4 , semi-conductors, cosmetic preparations, alloys and as a carrier for U-235 or U233 fuel in nuclear reactors 5 . Its pharmaceutical uses have expanded to peptic ulcer treatments and topical dermatological creams 6 .…”

“…The tetraiodobismuthate anion has been extracted directly with several onium cations e.g. (C 6 H 5 ) 4 P + , (C 6 H 5 ) 4 As + and benzyldimethylphenyl ammonium into a variety of organic solvents 9,10 . A liquid -liquid extractive spectrophotometric method has been reported for bismuth(III) determination as tetra-nbutylammonium tetraiodo bismuth(III) in chloroform 11 .…”
