Improvement of acid resistance of Zn-doped dentin by newly generated chemical bonds

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2022
Dental caries, the world’s most prevalent infectious disease, is caused by the diffusion of hydroxyl ions into tooth structures. To prevent dental caries, the application of fluoride (F) and zinc (Zn) ions to teeth surfaces are potential effective ...

Localization of Aluminum in Epidermal Cells of Mature Tea Leaves

open access: yesQuantum Beam Science, 2019
We have determined the distribution of aluminum in the epidermal cells of mature tea leaves using micro-beam particle-induced X-ray emission. The observed pattern of aluminum distribution in the epidermal cells suggests that aluminum exists in cell walls.

Analysis of Electrodeposited Nickel-Iron Alloy Film Composition Using Particle-Induced X-Ray Emission

open access: yesInternational Journal of Electrochemistry, 2011
The elemental composition of electrodeposited NiFe thin films was analyzed with particle-induced X-ray emission (PIXE). The thin films were electrodeposited on polycrystalline Au substrates from a 100 mM NiSO4, 10 mM FeSO4, 0.5 M H3BO3, and 1 M Na2SO4 ...
