The mechanochemical milling of Mg and $Mg_2Ni$ alloys were carried out to examine the enhancement of hydrogen storage properties of Mg alloys. The hydroge characteristics of the ball-milled products were evaluated with a Sievert-type apparatus and electrochemical test. Various intermediate compounds were obtained by chemical reactions induced during the ball milling of Mg of $Mg_2Ni$ alloys with C, Ni, $Ni_2Cl$ and $Ca_2Cl$. The system of $Mg_2Ni$ with 10 wt% C improved markedly the kinetics of hydrogen absorption, while the hydrogen capacities were practically unchanged. The hydrogen storage alloys such as Mg-Ca can be successfully.

Potential energy curves and internuclear (M-X) distance variations for dissociation reactions of $[MX_4]^{2-}$ into ($[MX_3]^-$ + $X^-$) have been calculated using ab initio Hartree-Fock (HF), second order M$\ddot{o}$ller-Plesset perturbation (MP2), and Density Functional Theory (DFT) methods with a triple zeta plus polarization (TZP) basis set. The equilibrium geometrical structures of $[MX_4]^{2-}$ are optimized to tetrahedral geometry for $[NiX_4]^{2-}$ and square planar geometry for ($[PdX_4]^{2-}$ and $[PtX_4]^{2-}$). The bond (M-X) distances of $[NiCl_4]^{2-}$, $[NiBr_4]^{2-}$, $[PdCl_4]^{2-}$, $[PdBr_4]^{2-}$, $[PtCl_4]^{2-}$, and $[PtBr_4]^{2-}$ at the DFT level are 2.258, 2.332, 2.351, 2.476, 2.367, and 2.493 $\AA$, respectively. The dissociation energies for the bond dissociation of ($[MX_3]^-$${\cdot}{\cdot}{\cdot}$$X^-$) at the DFT level are found to be 4.73 eV for $[NiCl_4]^{2-}$, 4.89 eV for $[NiBr_4]^{2-}$, 4.93 eV for $[PdCl_4]^{2-}$, 5.57 eV for $[PdBr_4]^{2-}$, 5.44 eV for $[PtCl_4]^{2-}$, and 5.87 eV for $[PtBr_4]^{2-}$. As the (M${\cdot}{\cdot}{\cdot}$X) distance of ($[MX_3]^-$${\cdot}{\cdot}{\cdot}$$X^-$) increases, the distance variation (Rt) of trans (M-X) bond at the trans-position is shorter than those (Rc) of two cis (M-X) bonds at the cisposition. Simultaneously the atomic charge variation of trans-X atom is more positive than those of equilibrium $[MX_4]^{2-}$ structures, while the variation of leaving X group is more positive.

We studied the physical properties of Ni-Zn ferrites by adding different chemicals such as $SO_4$, Cl, and $NO_3$. Specimens were prepared by the coprecipitation method and sintered at temperatures $950^{\circ}C,\;1,150^{\circ}C,\;and\;1,350^{\circ}C$, respectively. X-ray diffractions showed a spinel structure and the optical microscopy revealed grain size of 0.3 to 0.6 ${\mu}m$. The optimum sintering temperature to obtain fine, sintered microstructure depended on the additive : Cl and $NO_3\;at\;950^{\circ}C\;and\;SO_4\;at\;1,150^{\circ}C$. According to particle size analysis, higher magnetic permeability and magnetization value were observed with Cl and $NO_3\;than\;SO_4$. As sintering temperature was raised from $950^{\circ}C$ to $1,350^{\circ}C$, the average grain diameter, initial permeability and the magnetic moment also increased.

[ $NiCl_2$ ] and poly-L-lysine coated protein chip plates have been fabricated using a spin coating system. Water has been used as solvent and scratching effects on glass slides and ITO have been investigated. We also observed the surface properties of $NiCl_2$ and poly-L-lysine coated slides by using PSA(Particle size analyzer) and AFM(Atomic force microscope). The AFM results imply that the surface patterns created in the spin coating system determine the protein adsorption. Adsorption of histidine-tagged KRS proteins immobilized on glass slides and ITO was analyzed using a BAS image system. The results suggest that the scratching effect was increased ability of protein adsorption.

This study was performed to investigate the effect of heavy metals and CN on BOD$_{5}$ measurement. The results were as follows: 1. The BOD$_{5}$ value decreased 20% in Cd(CdCl$_{2}$) 3.0mg/l, Ni(NiCl$_{2}$) 7.0mg/l, Cu(CuCl$_{2}$) 0.5mg/l, Pb($Pb(NO_{3})_{2}$) 9.0mg/l, Cr($K_{2}Cr_{2}O_{7}$) 1.0mg/l respectively. 2. The BOD$_{5}$ value decreased 10% in Zn($Zn(NO_{3})_{2}$) 5 mg/l, Fe(FeCl$_{3}$) 20mg, /l, and 25% in CN(KCN) 5mg/l, and 40% in Hg(HgCl$_{2}$) 0.2rng/l. 3. In Comparion with BOD Rapid Analyzer, the above mentioned heavy metals concentrations have no effect on BOD$_{5}$ value of that analyzer except CN.

In this paper we introduce the notion of NI near-rings similar to the notion introduced in rings. We give topological properties of collection of strongly prime ideals in NI near-rings. We have shown that if N is a NI and weakly pm near-ring, then $Max(N)$ is a compact Hausdorff space. We have also shown that if N is a NI near-ring, then for every $a{\in}N$, $cl(D(a))=V(N^*(N)_a)=Supp(a)=SSpec(N){\setminus}int\;V(a)$.

The dipole moments for octahedral $[M(II)Cl_2N_2O_2]$, square planar and tetrahedral $[Pd(II)X_2Y_2]$ type complexes are calculated, using the approximate molecular orbital theory [M(II) = Ni(II) or Co(II), X = N and Y = O or S]. The calculated dipole moments for these complexes are in reasonable agreement with the experimental values. The possible structures for these complexes are investigated on the basis of the calculated dipole moments.

BACKGROUND: This study was performed for selecting yeast mutants with a high tolerance for targeted metals, and determining whether yeasts strains tolerant to multiple heavy metals could be induced by sequential adaptations. METHODS AND RESULTS: A mutant yeast strain tolerant to the heavy metals cadmium (Cd), copper (Cu), nickel (Ni), and zinc (Zn) was selected by sequential elevated exposures to each metal with intermittent mutant isolation steps. A Cd-tolerant mutant was isolated by growing yeast cells in media containing $CdCl_2$ concentrations that were gradually increased to 1 mM. Then the Cd-tolerant mutant was gradually exposed to increasing levels of $CuCl_2$ in growth media until a concentration of 7 mM was reached, thus generating a strain tolerant to both Cd and Cu. In the subsequent steps, this mutant was exposed to $NiCl_2$ (up to 8 mM), and a resultant isolate was further exposed to $ZnCl_2$ (up to 60 mM), allowing the derivation of a yeast mutant that was simultaneously tolerant to Cd, Cu, Ni, and Zn. CONCLUSION: This method of inducing tolerance to multiple targeted heavy metals in yeast will be useful in the bioremediation of heavy metals.

A nitrate ion-selective PVC membrane electrode based on ammonia modified bakelite A-Ni$(NO_3)_2$ complex as ion exchanger was prepared. The electrode gave a linear response with a Nernstian slope of 60mV per decade within the concentration range $1{\sim}10^{-4}$ M $KNO_3$ but nonresponse to hydrogen ion and multivalent anions. The selectivity, response time and life time of the electrode were investigated and it was found that the electrode exhibited good selectivity for four univalent anions ($Cl^-,\;Br^-,\;I^-,\;{ClO_4}^-$). Analytical application to the determination of nitrate were also studied.

In this study, an amorphous silica was functionalized with aminosilane, N-[(3-trimethoxysilyl)propyl]ethylenediamine (2NS) and the late transition metal catalysts including ($(DME)NiBr_2$ and $PdCl_2$(COD)) were subsequently immobilized on the functionalized amorphous silica for norbornene polymerization. Effects of the polymerization temperature, polymerization time, Al/Ni molar ratio, and type of co-catalyst on norbornene polymerization were investigated. Unsupported late transition metal catalysts did not show any activities for norbornene polymerization. However, the $SiO_2$/2NS/Ni catayst with MAO system, with increasing polymerization temperature, increased the polymerization activity and decreased the molecular weight of the polynorbornene (PNB). Furthermore, the catalyst when increasing polymerization temperature caused the decrease in both the polymerization activity and molecular weight of PNB. This confirmed that the stability of $SiO_2$/2NS/Ni at a high temperature was greater than that of $SiO_2$/2NS/Pd. Also the longer polymerization time resulted in the higher conversion of norbornene for both catalysts. When the Al : Ni molar ratio was 1000 : 1, the highest activity (15.3 kg-PNB/($({\mu}mol-Ni^*hr$)) but lowest molecular weight ($M_n$ = 124,000 g/mol) of PNB were achieved. Also $SiO_2$/2NS/Ni catalyst with borate/TEAL resulted in diminishing the polymerization activity and molecular weight of PNB with increasing the polymerization temperature.
