Reflux Dissolution of Thorium Dioxide in Nitric Acid
This study aims to investigate the reflux dissolution process of thorium dioxide in nitric acid, seeking an alternative to the current fluoride ion-dependent dissolution methods to prevent corrosion of stainless steel dissolvers and subsequent processing

Fabrication of Thorium and Thorium Dioxide
Thorium based nuclear fuel is of immense interest to India by virtue of the abundance of Thorium and relative shortage of Uranium. Thorium metal tubes were being cold drawn using copper as cladding to prevent die seizure. After cold drawing, the copper was removed by dissolution in nitric acid. Thorium does not dissolve being passivated by nitric acid.

Thorium dioxide, forgotten but not gone
The recent report edited by Taylor et al (1989) reminds us of the continuing risk of morbidity in patients exposed to thorium. We present three cases, with hepatic sequelae, in which the radiological diagnosis was missed on initial presentation. They illustrate the need to be alert to the possibility of Thorotrast toxicity. Thorotrast, a

Rapidly Diversifying Hydrogen‐Bonded Organic Frameworks With Permanent Porosity
This article reviews diversifying hydrogen‐bonded organic frameworks (HOFs) with permanent porosity reported over the past 15 years, based on the molecular structures of their constituent tectons. Furthermore, several distinctive aspects and concepts are described, such as permanent porosity, isostructural (isoreticular) HOFs, and multicomponent mixed ...

Synchronization‐Dissipation in the Cardiorespiratory System
By modeling central nervous coupling and viscoelastic interactions in the cardiorespiratory system we show that synchronization produces a 10% gain in cardiac efficiency in humans. It is surmised that respiratory sinus arrhythmia improves cardiac pumping efficiency by reducing dynamic stress and power dissipation in the pulmonary vasculature.

A density functional theory study of uranium-doped thoria and uranium adatoms on the major surfaces of thorium dioxide [PDF]
Thorium dioxide is of significant research interest for its use as a nuclear fuel, particularly as part of mixed oxide fuels. We present the results of a density functional theory (DFT) study of uranium-substituted thorium dioxide, where we found that ...

ROS‐Targeted Nanomotor Therapy in OA: Cartilage Protection and Pain Relief
ROS‐responsive NM@MET nanomotors utilize elevated ROS in osteoarthritic joints to promote deep penetration into cartilage and synovium and enable sustained metformin release. By scavenging ROS, regulating NRF2/KEAP1 signaling, protecting chondrocytes, suppressing synovial inflammation, and attenuating nociceptive signaling, NM@MET alleviates pain and ...

Computational Symmetric Grain Boundary Energy of Thorium Dioxide [PDF]
With fossil fuels being depleted at a faster rate than ever, there has been an effort to convert fossil fuel energy to different forms of green energy. One of these forms is nuclear power, and while nuclear power itself is not new, new fuel sources for ...
