Octanitrocubane
Octanitrocubane (molecular formula: C8(NO2)8) is a high explosive that like TNT is shock-insensitive (not readily detonated by shock) not detonating even when struck by a hammer. The octanitrocubane molecule has […]
Nepheline
Nepheline also called nephelite (from Greek: νεφέλη cloud) is a feldspathoid: a silica-undersaturated aluminosilicate Na3KAl4Si4O16 that occurs in intrusive and volcanic rocks with low silica and in their associated pegmatites. […]
BAPTA
BAPTA (12-bis(o-aminophenoxy)ethane-NNN’N’-tetraacetic acid) is a calcium-specific aminopolycarboxylic acid. The presence of four carboxylic acid functional groups makes possible the binding of two calcium ions. The extensive flexibility of the carboxylate […]
