Transparent oxide semiconducting thin films based on mixed Ti-V oxides were prepared using a modified reactive magnetron sputtering method. Based on structural investigations performed with the help of x-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy analysis, two distinct regions in the prepared thin film have been observed: a nanocrystalline TiO2-V2O3-V2O5 mixed composition, and a thin layer consisting of amorphous phase and nanocystalline TiO2 phase deposited directly at the substrate. Optical measurements show excellent transmission in the visible spectral range of 73%, on average. Resistivity of the thin film was found at the order of 105 Ω cm at room temperature. The preparation of mixed Ti-V oxides provides a combination of high transparency and semiconducting properties.

The hyperfine structure of the ground state of vanadium, 51VI, is calculated in the nonrelativistic framework of the multi-configuration Hartree-Fock approximation. A configuration state function limiting algorithm is used to make the calculations feasible and to study the influence of core, valence and core-valence correlations in detail. The obtained configuration state function space captures the most important orbital correlations within 2%. Further correlations are included through configuration interaction calculation. The atomic state functions are used to evaluate the magnetic dipole hyperfine factor A and the electric quadrupole factor B. It turns out that the ab initio calculation can not capture the core polarization of the 2s shell. It introduces an error that is higher than the Hartree-Fock approximation. However, the detailed correlations being observed suggest the introduction of a wrong correlation orbital due to the algorithm being used. Neglecting this orbital leads to good agreement with 2% deviation from the experimental values for the A factors.

Vanadium belongs to the group of transition metals and is present in the air and soil contaminants in large urban agglomerations due to combustion of fossil fuels. It forms numerous inorganic compounds (vanadyl sulfate, sodium metavanadate, sodium orthovanadate, vanadium pentoxide) as well as complexes with organic compounds (BMOV, BEOV, METVAN). Depending on the research model, vanadium compounds exhibit antitumor or carcinogenic properties. Vanadium compounds generate ROS as a result of Fenton's reaction or of the reaction with atmospheric oxygen. They inactivate the Cdc25B2 phosphatase and lead to degradation of Cdc25C, which induces G2/M phase arrest. In cells, vanadium compounds activate numerous signaling pathways and transcription factors, including PI3K-PKB/Akt-mTOR, NF-κB, MEK1/2-ERK, that cause cell survival or increased expression and release of VEGF. Vanadium compounds inhibit p53-dependent apoptosis and promote entry into the S phase of cells containing functional p53 protein. In addition, vanadium compounds, in particular organic derivatives, have insulin-mimetic and antidiabetic properties. Vanadium compounds lower blood glucose levels in animals and in clinical trials. They also inhibit the activity of protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B. By activating the PI3K-PKB/Akt pathway, vanadium compaunds increase the cellular uptake of glucose by the GLUT4 transporter. The PKB/Akt pathway is also used to inactivate glycogen synthase kinase-3. The impact of vanadium compounds on inflammatory reactions has not been fully studied. Vanadium pentoxide causes expression of COX-2 and the release of proinflammatory cytokines in a human lung fibroblast model. Other vanadium compounds activate NF-κB in macrophages by activating IKKβ.

This article examines the effect of prolonged time of holding at the temperature of 620°C on the processes of secondary phase precipitation and mechanical properties of low-alloy cast steel with an addition of vanadium subjected to two variants of heat treatment, i.e. U:1150°C+H:950°C+O:620°C and H:950°C+O:620°C. To determine an impact of the applied heat treatment operations, testing of mechanical properties and microstructural examinations of the cast steel with 0,21 and 0,27%C were carried out.
Oxidative desulfurization (ODS) of synthetic diesel was carried out at mild conditions (at atmospheric pressure and temperature of 80 °C) in the presence of V1O5/AI2O3 and V-MCM-41 catalysts, using hydrogen peroxide (H1O2) or rm-butyl hydroperoxide (TBPH) as an oxidant. Obtained results show that removal of benzothiophenic compounds is more effective in the presence of TBHP. Moreover, it has been observed that conversion of sulfur compounds is not a function of textural properties of the catalysts.
The oxidation is first order each in [substrate] and the [oxidant]. The reaction follows an acid catalysed path, exhibiting second order dependence in [H+]. Bunnett's plot indicates that water acts as a nucleophile. Protonated form of oxidant has been postulated as the reacting oxidizing species. The rate studied at four different temperatures enabled us to calculate activation parameters. A suitable mechanism has been proposed.
Vanadia monolayers deposited on various oxide supports (Zr02, Nb(2)O(5), TiO2, Al(2)O(3) and Si0(2) have been investigated with the aid of electron spin resonance. The results show that the electronic structure of reduced vanadyl species generated during methanol chemisorption depends on the nature of the supporting matrix. This is shown by changes of theBeta(2) bonding coefficient calculated from the experimentally determined ESR parameters. I t is demonstrated that the catalytic activity in methanol oxidation, ex-pressed in terms of turnover frequency (TOF), can be correlated with the latter parameter and increases with the ionicity of the vanadyl in-plane Pi-bonding system.
Vanadium-containing mesoporous molecular sieves (MMS) are quasi-crystalline solids with interesting catalytic properties in the oxidative activation of light alkanes. In the present work, the methods of their synthesis, physico-chemical properties and catalytic behaviour in the oxidative dehydrogenation and selective oxidation of C2-C4 alkanes are reviewed. It is concluded that, as with conventional supported vanadium contacts, the catalytic performance in these reactions is related to the number and environment of vanadium centres, and the best selectivity and yield are obtained over isolated vanadium sites exhibiting tetrahedral coordination.
Resistance to fretting wear has been widely studied the last two decades. It has been shown that single TiN coatings on M2 HSS steels reduce the fretting damage about one order of magnitude and it is expected on the basis of theoretical considerations that hard multilayer coatings should present still greater resistance to wear. In the present paper hard modulated TiC/VC carbide multilayer coatings with lambda = 40 nm on M2 HSS steel substrate have been submitted to the fretting wear and the results have been compared with those for single TiC coating and for the M2 HSS substrate itself. The carbide coatings have been deposited with use of an indirect method invented in the Technical University of Łódź, Poland, the fretting tests have been performed in the Laboratory of Tribology and of Dynamic Systems of the Ecole Centrale in Lyon, France, and the results have been elaborated according to the new methodology developed in the latter. It turned out that the fretting wear of the multilayer coating was 25 times less than that of the M2 substrate, much less than that of the single TiC coating and 2.5 times less than that of the commercial TiN coating on the same steel.

An extractive-spectrophotometric method for determination of V{V) and V(IV) has been developed. V(V) was converted to ternary ion-associate complex with 4-(2-pyridylazo)-resorcinol and tetrazolium violet. In the presence of diaminocyclohexanetetraacetic acid and NH4F as the masking agents determination of V(V) was highly selective, and V(IV) was among the masked ions. Due to this fact V(1V) could be determined indirectly from the difference in the absorbance measured in the presence and absence of the oxidizing agent, which oxidised V(IV) to V(V). The factors influencing determination of V(V) in the presence of large excess of V{IV) have been investigated. The method was applied to the determination of V(IV/V) in catalysts used for oxidation of SO2 to SO3.The precision and accuracy were satisfactory (RSD ≤ 1.9%). Detection limit of V(V) was 3.3 ngmL-1. Beer's law was obeyed up to V(V) concentration of 1.45 μg mL-1 in dichloroethane extract. The corresponding molar absorptivity coefficient was 3.05 x 104L mol4 cm-1.

W obecności kwasu diaminocycloheksanotetraoctowego i NH4F jako czynnika maskującego oznaczanie V(V) okazało się wysoce selektywne. V(IV) był maskowany, w związku z tym móg! być oznaczany pośrednio z różnicy między absorbancją roztworów zawierających i niezawierąjących utleniacza. Badano czynniki wpływające na oznaczanie V(V) w obecności dużego nadmiaru V(IV). Opracowaną metodę zastosowano do oznaczania V(IV/V) w katalizatorach użytych do utleniania SO2, do SO3. Precyzja i dokładność były zadowalające (względne odchylenie standardowe < 1,9%). Granica wykrywalności wynosiła 3.3 ngmL-1. Prawo Beer'a było zachowane do stężenia 1,45 μg mL-1 w ekstraktach dichloroetanowych. Molowy współczynnik absorpcji wynosił 3.05 x 104L mol4 cm-1.
