Further analyses by STEM-EDS and XPS indicated that Tl(I) in the paddy soils was jointly controlled by adsorption, oxidation, and precipitation of Fe/Mn(hydr)oxide (e.g. hematite and birnessite), which might act as important stabilization mechanisms for inhibiting potential Tl uptake by rice grains.
Thallium oxide is used to produce special glass with a high index of refraction, and also low melting glass that becomes fluid at about 125K. An alloy of mercury containing 8% thallium has a melting point 20C lower than mercury alone. This can be used in low temperature thermometers and switches. Biological role.
The toxicity of thallium is mainly due to the fact that the mono-valent thallium ion Tl 1 has many properties which are very similar to the common ions potassium, K 1 and sodium Na 1. Since the size of the thallium ion is very close to that of the potassium ion, certain biochemical mechanisms in the body cannot distinguish between the two ...
