This is a continuation-in-part of co-pending application S.N. 155,340 filed Feb. 12, 1988, which is a continuation-in-part of application S.N. 095,083 filed Sept. 11, 1987. Both applications are herein incorporated by reference in their entireties.
This invention relates to the preparation of ceramics and more particularly to an improvement in preparing the metal oxide system known as Tl-Ca-Ba-Cu-O.
In its broadest sense the invention involves co-precipitating carbonates of copper and at least one, preferably at least two, alkaline earth metals (Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba) onto finely divided water-insoluble nuclei (alumina, T12 O3, T1 metal, or the like) in aqueous media, followed by recovering and drying the solids, then heating the dried solids to form the final ceramic product. Under preferred conditions the final product is superconducting.
More specifically, an aqueous solution of compounds of certain metals (e.g., nitrates of Ca, Ba, and Cu) is added slowly and simultaneously with an aqueous solution containing carbonate ions, to an aqueous suspension of T12 O3 particles (i.e., a heel), whereby carbonates of the metals are co-precipitated onto the T12 O3 particles. The solids are recovered, dried, and calcined. In the preferred process the result is superconducting.
All of our final fired products find utility in the general field of ceramics, e.g., as insulators, glazes, circuit boards, etc. Some are superconductors; some are not. According to a table in C&EN, May 16, 1988, p. 26, superconductivity (or its lack) has been reported for T1a -Cab -Bac -Cud -Ox oxides as follows:
______________________________________a b c d x Tc (�K.)______________________________________1 0 2 1 (e) (not superconducting)1 1 2 2 (e) ca. 80, 1031 2 2 3 (e) ca. 1102 0 2 1 6 ca. 80-85 (f)2 1 2 2 8 1082 2 2 3 10 125______________________________________ (e) Not determined. (f) Measurement in dispute; may not be superconducting.
The class of compounds made in our invention includes (among others) all the above.
It has long been known that the effective resistivity of certain metals was sometimes substantially eliminated when the metal was exposed to low temperature conditions. Of particular interest were the metals and metal oxides which can conduct electricity under certain low temperature conditions with virtually no resistance. These have become known as superconductors. Certain metals, for example, are known to be superconductive when cooled to about 4� on the Kelvin scale (�K.), and certain niobium alloys are known to be superconductive at about 15� K., some as high as about 23� K.
Discovery of superconductivity in the system La-Ba-Cu-O (J. G. Bednorz and K. A. Muller, Zeit. Phys. B 64, 189-193 [1986]) has stimulated the search for other systems, particularly with a view to substituting other elements for the rare earths (RE) used in the earlier materials. For example, replacement of RE by Bi and T1 has been reported. (See M. A. Subramanian et al., Science, 239, p. 1015 (1988); L. Gao et al., Nature, 332, pp. 623-624 (1988). In preparing the system T1-Ba-Cu-O, Z. Z. Sheng and A. M. Hermann "Superconductivity in the Rare Earth-Free T1-Ba-Cu-O System above Liquid Nitrogen Temperature," Nature, 332, pp. 55-58 (1988), first mixed and ground BaCO3 and CuO to obtain a product which they heated, then intermittently reground to obtain a uniform black Ba-Cu-Oxide powder, which was then mixed with T12 O3, ground, and heated, with formation of a superconducting material. It was noted that the T1 oxide partially melted and partially vaporized.
The superconductor system T1-Ca-Ba-Cu-O was also reported in a paper by Sheng and Hermann, "Bulk Superconductivity at 120 K in the T1-Ca-Ba-Cu-O System," Nature, 332, pp. 138-139 (1988). The authors reported "stable and reproducible bulk superconductivity above 120 K with zero resistance above 100 K". According to the paper the composition was prepared by mixing and grinding together T12 O3, CaO and BaCu3 O4. The ground mixture was pressed into a pellet and heated in flowing oxygen. The result was cooled and found to be superconducting.
Our invention is an improvement in the latter Sheng-Hermann process of making T1-Ca-Ba-Cu-O superconductors.
See also the paper by Hazen et al, "100 K Superconducting Phases in the T1-Ca-Ba-Cu-O System," Phys. Rev. Let., 60, pp. 1657-1660 (1988}, which refers to two superconducting phases, T1 2 Ca2 Ba2 Cu3 O10+ and T12 Ca1 Ba2 Cu2 O8+, both with onset Tc near 120 K and zero resistivity at 100 K. Preparation included grinding together T12 O3, CaO, and BaCu3 O4 (or Ba2 Cu3 O5), followed by heating.
And see "Nota Bene" in High Tc Update, vol. 2, No. 6, p. 1, Mar. 15, 1988, further re properties of the T1-Ca-Ba-Cu-O system.
Wang et al., Comparison of Carbonate, Citrate, and Oxalate Chemical Routes to the High-Tc Metal Oxide Superconductors La2-x Srx CuO4, Inorg. Chem. 26, 1474-1476 (1987) discloses a carbonate precipitation technique. The precipitant was K2 CO3. According to the paper, it was necessary to wash the precipitate repeatedly, an obvious disadvantage in production work. Washing was necessary because potassium adversely affects superconductivity properties of the finished materials. If we wash repeatedly, we remove barium, a highly detrimental loss in our process.
From the technical viewpoint it may seen obvious that co-precipitated carbonates would provide enhanced homogeneity. However, the technical solution to the problem encounters serious difficulties. Thus the Wang et al process, using potassium carbonate (or sodium carbonate) necessitated numerous washings and apparently left detectable amounts of alkali in the ceramic base even so. As noted serial washings remove Ba, and would be unworkable in our process. Nor is it merely sufficient that the carbonate be derived from a cation that would burn off completely. For example, ammonium carbonate does not work, because a pH below 7 is required to prevent formation of copper tetraammine, but under these conditions bicarbonate ion is formed, with consequent formation of barium bicarbonate, which, being slightly soluble, disrupts the desired stoichiometry. Quaternary ammonium carbonates, on the other hand, form the desired metal carbonates simply and cleanly as a coating on T12 O3 particles without troublesome side-formation of complexes or coordination compounds, with firm and precise retention of the intended stoichiometry. The coated particles are readily recovered for further processing.
We start with three base liquids (all preferably made up with deionized water):
(1) Premix, an aqueous solution of soluble salts (e.g., nitrates, acetates, etc.) of Cu and at least one alkaline earth metal, the salts being present in amounts to provide an atomic ratio of Xb -Zc -Cud where X and Z are different alkaline earth metals, and b, c, and d independently have a value within the range 0.1-10; provided that, under certain conditions hereinafter explained, when X is Ca and Z is Ba, b may be zero.
(2) Solution of quaternary ammonium carbonate (described below);
(3) Aqueous dispersion of finely divided waterinsoluble nuclei ("heel"). Suitably the powder is fine enough so that at least about 90% passes through a 100 mesh U.S. screen. Further description and use of this dispersion will use T12 O3 as exemplar, suitably finely divided T12 O3 powder slurried as a 1-5 weight % dispersion in water.
Additionally, an aqueous solution of a quaternary ammonium hydroxide is used. This is added drip-wise to the heel during the course of the reaction to maintain the pH of the reaction mixture in the range of about 7-11. Below this pH some of carbonates (e.g., Ba) tend to redissolve as the bicarbonate.
The reaction is suitably carried out at room temperature. To start, the heel of the thallium oxide dispersion is stirred, and addition of the solution of the combined nitrates into the heel is begun. The addition is slow and is metered to match the addition of the quaternary ammonium carbonate, which is similarly metered. The reaction time will depend on the amount of materials being reacted. In Example 1, we added 600 ml of nitrates and 600 ml of quaternary ammonium carbonate over a period of about half an hour, or about 20 ml of each solution per minute. The rate may go up with larger volumes of materials. However, under conditions of simultaneous addition, there will be little or no stoichiometric excess of either the nitrate solution or the carbonate solution in the heel at any time. Further, reaction of the reagents is almost instantaneous as added, and as a result, very little free metal ions or carbonate ions exist at any given moment.
The major component of the final reaction slurry is considered to be T12 O3 particles coated with co-precipated carbonates of Ca, Ba, and Cu. However, some brown color in the solids is evident, indicating that some of the thallium oxide was thinly coated. (T12 O3 is dark brown.) Some carbonates may have coprecipitated separately, i.e., not onto the particles of thallium oxide. When the reaction product is filtered and dried, it is blue throughout, suggesting that the brown T12 O3 is substantially covered.
We may note that thallium carbonate, T12 O3 is fairly water soluble and hence cannot be effectively precipitated from its nitrate solution as the carbonate, alone or with other carbonates. That particular route to homogeneity is therefore unavailable.
Our invention is particularly applicable to the system T1a -Cab -Bac Cud -Ox, where a, b, and c are independently about 0.5-3, preferably 1 or 2; d is about 1-4, preferably 2 or 3; and x is indeterminate, depending on the compound. These ratios carry through from the co-precipitated carbonate stage to the final oxide product. In particular our invention contemplates preparation of atomic ratios of T1a -Cub -Bac -Cud in the co-precipitated carbonate stage (solids in slurry) through, inter alia, the final fired oxide compound, said ratios to include the following six compounds:
______________________________________Compound a b c d______________________________________1 1 0 2 12 1 1 2 23 1 2 2 34 2 0 2 15 2 1 2 26 2 2 2 3______________________________________
In the above, Compound No. 6 is made in Example 1.
Indeterminancy of oxygen content is universally accepted in this particular ceramic art. The reason is not technical indifference, but is based largely on the difficulty of analysis. Some of the problems in establishing oxygen content are described in an article by Robert M. Hazen, "Perovskites," Sci. Ame. 258, No. 6, pp. 74-81 (1988). Accordingly, oxygen is typically reported as not determined, it being assumed that the atomic ratios of metal compounds sufficiently establish identity.
In our compounds, x may be in the range of 0.5-50.
The invention provides several novel compositions and processes:
(1) Premix Solution. This is an aqueous solution of the soluble salts of Cu and of at least one alkaline earth metal, the salts being present to provide an atomic ratio of Xb -Zc -Cud where X and Z are different alkaline earth metals, b is 0-10, and c and d are independently 0.1-10. Preferably this composition is a solution of nitrates of Ca, Ba, and Cu, and Ca, Ba, and Cu are present in an atomic ratio of Cab -Bac -Cud, where b is about 0.5-3, c is about 0.5-3, and d is about 1-4.
(2) Aqueous slurry, the solids of which comprise particles of water-insoluble nuclei coated with co-precipitated carbonates of Xb -Zc -Cud as defined in (1). Preferably the nuclei are T12 O3, and Xb -Zc -Cud is Cab -Bac -Cud as defined in (1).
(3) Finely-divided water-insoluble nuclei coated with co-precipitated carbonates of Xb -Zc -Cud as defined in (1) above, particularly, particles of T12 O3 coated with co-precipitated carbonates of Ca, Ba, and Cu, providing T1a -Cab -Bac -Cud -O where a is about 0.5-3 and b, c, and d are as defined in (1) above.
(4) The fired mixture of (3) above, preferably under process conditions that provide a superconductor.
The point of novelty of the preferred form of Composition (4) vis-a-vis the prior art is that the T1, Ca, Ba, and Cu oxides are present in totally homogenized form in Composition (4).
(5) Forming Composition (1) above, preferably by forming a solution of nitrates of Ca, Ba, and Cu, suitably to provide an atomic ratio of Cab -Bac -Cud as above defined.
(6) Reacting the solution of (5) with a solution of quaternary ammonium carbonate in a heel of an aqueous dispersion of particles of water-insoluble nuclei, suitably T12 O3, at a pH of about 7-11, so as to form a co-precipitate of carbonates of Cu and at least one alkaline earth metal, e.g., Ba, suitably with Ca, on the nuclei (e.g., T12 O3); and recovering the resulting solids.
(7) Drying the solids of (6). Drying can be done in an oven (cf. our Example 1), or (preferably) by spray drying, or by spraying the slurry onto a heated drum, or by substantially any conventional means.
(8) Calcining the dried mixture of (7). Preferably, prior process conditions are selected so that the product of calcining is a superconductor.
Our invention offers several closely related contributions to the art: (1) total homogeneity of X-Z-Cu (as above defined), e.g., Ca-Ba-Cu; (2) minimal handling and evaporation of toxic T1; (3) zero to minimal T1 loss during heating and therefore better control of stoichiometry; and (4) minimal introduction of impurities.
We use the term "homogeneous" to mean dispersion so fine that it is practically at the atomic level. This is the type of homogeneity that results when our final reaction slurry is dried and the dried product is calcined. For example, our final T1-Ca-Ba-Cu-O product is characterized by substantially total homogeneity.
A solution of quaternary ammonium carbonate is conveniently prepared by bubbling CO2 through an aqueous solution of a quaternary ammonium hydroxide until the quaternary carbonate is stoichiometrically formed and CO2 is dissolved in excess. The preferred quaternary ammonium hydroxides have the formula: ##STR1## same or different members of the group (i) alkyl, e.g., tetramethylammonium hydroxide, tetraethylammonium hydroxide, tetrapropylammonium hydroxide, dimethyldiethylammonium hydroxide, cyclopropyltrimethylammonium hydroxide and the like;
(ii) aromatic, e.g., phenyltrimethylammonium hydroxide, phenylethyldimethylammonium hydroxide, benzyltrimethylammonium hydroxide, and the like;
(iii) heterocyclic;
(iv) and any two group members may be joined in a ring whereby N becomes a ring member, e.g., dimethyl pyrrolidnium hydroxide, dimethylpyridinium hydroxide, and the like.
The quaternary carbonate corresponding to the above quaternary hydroxide is of course ##STR2##
Use of the quaternaries permits: (i) facile pH control (essential for co-precipitation of the carbonates); (ii) exclusion of additional metals, such as in potassium carbonate as used in prior carbonate processes; (iii) ready burn-off of the carbonate source in the furnace; and (iv) stoichiometric co-precipitation, without formation of interfering complexes or coordination compounds.
This solution is made up by dissolving the required X-Z-Cu nitrates, acetates, or other soluble salts in water, so as to provide the predetermined atomic ratio for the metals in the finished superconductor, as stated.
The heel is prepared simply by dispersing insoluble finely divided nuclei, e.g., T12 O3 into water, in a vessel equipped with stirrer and large enough to accommodate the anticipated addition of soluble salt (e.g., nitrate) and quaternary ammonium carbonate solutions. We prefer that the slurry heel at start comprise about 1-5 weight % T12 O3 or other nuclei.
A small amuont (e.g., about 0.1 weight %) of an organic surfactant may be added to aid dispersion.
The premix solution and the quaternary ammonium carbonate are added slowly, simultaneously, at constant rates, with stirring, to the heel of slurry. The two reactant solutions and the heel are suitably each about the same starting volume. The pH should be maintained at about 7-11, suitably at about 9-10, during carbonate co-precipitation. Suitably this is done by drip-wise addition of a quaternary ammonium hydroxide. Such quaternary may have the structure of quaternary ammonium hydroxide as above defined.
The solids can be recovered from the slurry using various techniques. On a laboratory scale simple filtration followed by air drying or oven drying is adequate for good homogeneity.
In the preferred embodiment, at all times during the reaction the resulting slurry will be found to contain T12 O3 particles coated with carbonates of calcium, barium, and copper; quaternary ammonium cations; nitrate ions residual from the starting nitrate salts, stoichiometrically equivalent to the co-preciptated carbonates; and water (balance). This slurry is believed novel. It is per se an essential part of our invention. At the conclusion of the carbonate precipitation, the solids will consist of carbonates of Ca, Ba, and Cu on T12 O3 in a predetermined atomic ratio, i.e., in the range T11 -Cab Bac -Cud, where a, b, c, and d are as above defined. The dried solids recovered from this slurry are ready to calcine to make a superconductor characterized by substantial homogeneity. Calcination converts the carbonates to oxides and removes any residual nitrates, moisture, or organic material.
The following Example illustrates without limiting the invention.
Ba(NO3)2.4 H2 O, 15.8 g; Cu(NO3)2.2-1/2H2 O, 20.93 g; and Ca(N3)2.4 H2 O, 14.17 g were placed in a 1000-ml beaker and 500 ml deionized water at room temperature was added with stirring, to bring the nitrates into solution. The solution was diluted to the 600 ml mark with stirring to achieve complete solution.
200 ml tetramethylammonium carbonate (from 25 weight % solution of tetramethylammonium hydroxide in water), pH 10.00, was placed in a second 1-L beaker and diluted up to the 600-ml mark with deionized water.
T12 O3 as a finely divided powder, 13.7 g, was placed in a 4-L beaker and 500 ml deionized water was added with stirring. The dispersion was diluted with deionized water to the 600-ml mark, to provide a thallium oxide heel.
The solutions of nitrates and tetramethylammonium carbonate were then slowly pumped simultaneously into the thallium oxide heel, with stirring. The heel pH was maintained at about 9 by dripping neat tetramethylammonium hydroxide into the heel from a 500-ml burette, thereby permitting measurement of the amount used (a total of 80 ml).
Total time for transfer of nitrate and tetramethylammonium carbonate solutions to the thallium oxide heel was 31 minutes, 20 seconds.
The resulting reaction slurry was stirred for an additional 20 minutes (approximate), then filtered on double filter paper on a Buechner funnel. The filter cake was placed in a heat-resistant glass tray and dried overnight in a convection oven at 100� C. The blue cake weighed 43.70 g. It was gently broken up, and 10.86 g set aside for calcination.
The above 10.86 g, a blue powder, was placed in an alumina boat and heated in air for 8 hours at 530� C., then heated in air for 2 hours at 750� C., following which it was heated in oxygen for 2 hours at 850� C. It was then allowed to cool to room temperature. The powder was pressed into a disk and tested for superconductivity by magnetic susceptibility. The test showed superconductivity.
From the foregoing description it will be evident that our process introduces no extraneous substances into the system; viz., no cations other than T1, Ca, Ba, and Cu enter the system. The process thus results in an oxide mix of extraordinary purity at all stages.
Prior art processes conveniently enhance homogeneity by grinding the calcined intended superconductor, followed by recalcining. In some instances this sequence may be repeated several times. It is known that improved homogeneity in the general case enhances superconductivity. The problem here is that effective grinding inevitably and inherently introduces impurities into the ceramic, simply by impacting the ceramic between the balls and walls (or other grinding surfaces) of the grinding mill. It is known, for example, that silica or stainless steel balls in a ball mill lose significant mass over a period of use. This mass of course disappears into whatever was being milled. Mills that comminute by particle self-impact lose metal by wall-scouring, particularly in the area of stream entry. If the product is ground in a ball mill using quartz or silica balls, some of the impurity is silica.
Thus, the firing-grinding-refiring technique rapidly achieves a balance: Improvement in homogeneity tends to be matched by contamination build-up that cancels part or all of the improvement.
As above described, our process minimizes the grinding problem in the general case. Our product can of course be subjected to the conventional grinding-shaping-refiring cycle, but this is superfluous.

Fundraising has begun for what is expected to be one of the largest hedge fund launches of the year.
Pierre-Henri Flamand, the former head of Goldman Sachs' largest proprietary trading desk, has started meeting with investors in the U.S. and Britain in advance of the November launch of his hedge fund, Edoma Partners. The new fund, which has the backing of Flamand's former employers, could raise more than $1 billion.
The global event-driven fund is set to launch on Nov. 1, The Wall Street Journal reports. Flamand is in the process of registering his new London-based Edoma Capital with regulators and has been actively recruiting. The firm has already hired seven people, including some other Goldman veterans, and plans to have a team of 20 in place before launch.
Among the notable names working at Edoma are Ali Hedayat and Emmanuel Niogret, who worked under Flamand at Goldman Sachs Principal Strategies before his departure last month, and Martina Slowey, the former UBS prime brokerage chief who will serve as chief operating officer of the new firm.
Edoma will charge 2% for management and 20% for performance, with discounts for those investors willing to accept a two-year lockup. The fund will feature quarterly liquidity.

Does the person have another open case? In Miami this could mean the person is currently on probation and will not be released on the new case until the person sees another Judge to resolve another issue. A bondsman or a criminal lawyer who specializes in Miami cases could answer this question quickly if you contact them and provide a bit more information.
On a violation of probation, there must be an affidavit filed with the Court that indicates the alleged violation. At this point, the Defense is on notice that the government can call any witnesses relevant to prove this allegation to the legal standard being a preponderance of the evidence. A Judge could give the Defense anywhere from 30 days to prepare for the violation hearing.

The Angels, avid samplers of the free-agent buffet, were sputtering. They went 62-54 the rest of that season, then won the AL West in 1979. Fregosi thus became the first Angels' star and the first Angels' manager to visit the postseason.
"He was one of the guys," Grich said. "He would laugh with us before and after the games. We all knew him and respected him as a player. I grew up on Long Beach and when the Angels came to Anaheim, I watched every move he made. He was the player I wanted to be."
Grich also winced through that '78 season with a herniated disc. Fregosi ripped him afterward, calling him a "major disappointment."
Grich was offended. Fregosi didn't particularly care. Grich hit 30 home runs and 101 RBI, both career highs, in '79.
"In a perverse way, maybe he deserved some credit for that," Grich said.
"He was a man's man," said Dave Frost, who went 16-10 in '79. "He played hard, lived hard. He figured out how to be friendly but not really your buddy, how to be the boss as well."
Fregosi was fired in Toronto after winning seasons in '99 and '00. He never quit wanting to manage, but came to enjoy the scouting life, with his endless contacts and a constant audience.
Known eternally as the man for whom the Mets traded Nolan Ryan, Fregosi said it just proved how invaluable he was to the Angels.
He was back at the Big A for the 2002 World Series, and said he was impressed by David Eckstein. "Second best shortstop they've ever had here," he said.
But the essential Fregosi story came in 1977, past his prime in Texas.
Randy Galloway of the Dallas Morning News had written that Fregosi bobbled "a routine ground ball" and caused the Rangers to lose.
Next day, Fregosi bellowed, "Galloway, come here!" and put on his fierce face.
"You must not know anything about baseball," he rasped. "Don't you know that no ball that's ever been hit to me is routine?"
Nothing ever was.

Canadiens to host 2009 NHL Entry Draft

MONTREAL–The Montreal Canadiens will host the 2009 NHL Entry Draft, general manager Bob Gainey and the NHL announced Tuesday.
The Draft will be held over two days (June 26 -27) at the Bell Centre and will coincide with the club's Centennial celebration.
"In December 2009, the Canadiens will become the first professional hockey team to celebrate a century of history," said Canadiens President Pierre Boivin said in a statement. "Thanks to the NHL, the Entry Draft is back in Montreal after 17 years. We are excited about this occasion, knowing the past history of the Draft and its origins in Montreal."
The Entry Draft has grown significantly since the first such event was held in a hotel ballroom in Montreal in 1963. After 17 years of being conducted in various Montreal hotels and the League office in that city, the Draft sported a new look as the historic Montreal Forum played host to the event in 1980 in front of more than 2,000 spectators.
In 1985, the Draft was held outside Montreal for the first time as a crowd of 7,000 filled the Metro Toronto Convention Centre. Montreal again hosted the Draft in 1986, 1988 and 1992.
A Top Prospects Preview, which provides hockey fans a glimpse of the young athletes expected to be selected by the 30 NHL clubs, also will be one of the highlight events held in conjunction with the Draft.
