Antimony-carbon anode could pave the way for developing next-gen batteries

May 04, 2019 - antimony and carbon

Eventually, researchers realized the need to consider the design of the electrode materials and the properties of the electrolytes at the same time. Two teams at the University of Maryland (UMD) were thus able to come up with a new composite that combined antimony and carbon.

The new material is well-suited as an anode in potassium-ion batteries. It is manufactured through an electrospray-assisted method that can be scaled up with ease....

How to store emergency water in your vehicle

April 26, 2023 -

Here are some recommendations and invaluable advice shared by professional outdoor educators and survival experts on how to store emergency water in your vehicle.Storage tips for when the weather is hot

Avoid water in plastic bottles. A study by researchers at the University of Florida and Nanjing University found that plastic water bottles left in a hot car for a week leaked significant amounts of harmful chemicals into the drinking water. Examples of these toxic chemicals ...

Scientists develop liquid that changes color with heat

August 25, 2019 - antimony selenide (Sb2Se3) nanoparticles, we serendipitously discovered that they formed crystalline nanowires upon heating and dissolved into their molecular precursors upon cooling, in a certain mixture of solvents,” explained Wu in an interview.

She selected antimony triselenide (Sb2Se3) for the semiconductor crystals. When unheated, the molecular precursors of the compound are generally transparent.

Once the temperatures rose, the molecules formed ...

Where you get your fish matters: Researchers discover over HALF of the fish from polluted waters are contaminated with mercury

March 12, 2020 - antimony, from sediments collected in the reservoir. This level of contamination, according to the researchers, can potentially affect fish in the area, including carp (Cyprinus carpio), pike-perch (Sander lucioperca), European perch (Perca fluviatilis), northern pike (Esox lucius) and tench (Tinca tinca).

To put their theory to the test, they collected over 350 samples of fish and fish products, which they either caught or purchased in the area. The team tested ...

Heavy metals accumulate in your brain: Could this be the true cause of Alzheimer’s?

July 05, 2019 - antimony in them; contact the manufacturer if you’re unsure. For future mattress and furniture purchases, make a point of inquiring about brands that don’t use toxic chemicals.

Finally, don’t forget the bathroom. According to the Agency for Toxic Substances & Disease Registry, aluminum can be found in antacids, buffered aspirin, deodorants and vaccines.

There isn’t much you can do about the genetic component of Alzheimer’s, but you could well make some serious ...

Exposure to chemicals and other toxins found to be the cause of an increase in childhood neurological conditions

December 01, 2017 - antimony from Scotchguard, arsenic from food and treated lumber, and nickel, cadmium, and aluminum from food and dental materials. Meanwhile, the most common exposure of adults is mercury from dental fillings and fish, and lead from paint and plumbing.

Mixed metals in the mouth (e.g. amalgam dental fillings, metal crowns, and metal braces) can cause galvanic currents in the metals that drive them into the saliva and tissues of the oral cavity at high levels as ...

Survival basics: What is the shelf life of bottled water?

May 15, 2019 - antimony and BPA. Exposing water to heat can increase the BPA levels above what is considered safe for human consumption.

Data suggests that BPA can seep into food or beverages from containers that are made with BPA. This is a serious health concern because BPA is found to affect the brain, behavior, and prostate gland of fetuses, infants, and children. Scientific findings also imply that there is a connection between BPA and increased blood pressure.

According ...

Old plastic toys could be dangerous: Study finds many contain toxic chemicals that have since been banned

February 03, 2018 - antimony, barium, bromine, cadmium, chromium, lead, and selenium. Even at low concentrations, these are persistently toxic to kids over an extended period of time. Most of these toxic chemicals were found in building blocks, figures, and items of jewelry that were usually yellow, red, or black. With further tests conducted, they found that under simulated stomach condition, some toys released concentrations of bromine, cadmium, or lead that went over the limits set by ...

Report: Toxic heavy metal debris found in vaccines

March 27, 2017 - antimony and other metals. Only one sample – an animal vaccine - came back clean.

As noted by the authors of the study, these contaminants were not declared by the manufacturers on the label and should not be found in any vaccine. In one vaccine, GSK’s Fluarix vaccine for children above three years, the scientists found 11 metals, and aggregates of metals, that have previously been associated with cases of leukemia.

Over 60 scientists call for an end to covid-19 “vaccines” after documenting foreign toxins that damage the blood and impede circulation

February 17, 2023 - antimony, a highly toxic metal that could be used as an antiprotozoal adjuvant, serving an immunosuppressive effect. Notably, the vaccines contain pentavalent sodium stibogluconate. The side effects of this substance mirror the side effects commonly reported after vaccination, including: nausea, vomiting, myalgia, headache, lethargy and ECG changes. Long term side effects of pentavalent sodium stibogluconate administration in the blood also mirror long term side effects ...

Japan announces new plan to drain radioactive Fukushima water DIRECTLY into the Pacific Ocean

October 28, 2018 - antimony, tellurium, cobalt and strontium."

When asked about these documents, Hitachi reportedly declined to comment on the performance of its ALPS technology. The Japanese government similarly refused to respond to multiple requests for comment about the seeming disparity.

Like we've been saying all along: Fukushima is a MAJOR coverup

According to The Telegraph, other "restricted" documents suggest that the arm of the Japanese government responsible ...

Herd of cows leaps to its death off a 50-meter cliff… is humanity any different?

June 09, 2017 - antimony.

Sources of toxicity include water supply, environmental, industrial, and even your hobbies. You can also ingest it, get in contact with the skin, or by simply drinking water. Metal toxicity is dangerous because they can damage the nervous, gastrointestinal, reproductive and cardiovascular systems. They can also have a negative effect in blood production and cause kidney disorders.

Just like the cows who mysteriously jumped to their deaths for no compelling ...

Study finds unsafe levels of uranium in American public water systems

April 14, 2022 - antimony, beryllium, barium, thallium, mercury, selenium, chromium and cadmium that have been compiled by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

The review also checked whether the average concentrations of these metals exceeded the standards set by the EPA, with the research team going through 13 million records from 139,000 public water systems that serve 290 million people per year.

The study pointed out that uranium is an important risk factor for the ...

Unsafe home environments: How unseen toxins in your home can affect your family's health

January 22, 2006 - antimony and other chemicals released from flame-retardant crib mattresses may be the cause of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), also known as crib death. According to Dr. Sprock, who first discovered this, the solution is to use a polyethylene sheet to wrap the crib mattress, which yielded zero crib deaths in 100,000 live births, according to ongoing research. Rental properties, such as apartments, pose an especially high risk of pollutants for inhabitants, according ...

The Roman Empire was poisoning its citizens with toxic lead at least two centuries earlier than believed

September 06, 2017 - antimony, which caused the water to be “decidedly hazardous” and gave the risk of diarrhea and vomiting, liver and kidney damage, and even cardiac arrest to those who drank from it.

This makes it evident that the Roman Empire's lead contamination may have sprung from its pipes.
