Gas-stirred solvent extraction with propylene carbonate for separation and direct polarographic determination of thallium (III)

Gas-stirred propylene carbonate (PC) extraction can be performed by bubbling nitrogen without loss of volume. This extraction technique has proved to be highly useful for the separation and subsequent direct polarographic estimation of Tl(III) in the recovered PC phase. Tl(III) can be determined by differential-pulse polarography over the concentration range of 0.4 10 g ml^–1 without any interferences due to most metal ions such as Pb(II), Bi(III), Cu(II), Sb(III) and As(III). This proposed technique would be possible to use as a simple extraction step prior to the final estimation by instrumental method of analysis such as atomic absorption spectrometry or spectrophtometry.

烷基季铵盐插层剂的合成及应用

Three novel intercalation agents were synthesized for the first time, which arose from oleic acid diethylenetriamine or triethylenetetramine 3 - chloro - 2 - hydroxypropy trimethylammonium choride (CHPTA) and chloroethanol. Organophilic vermicullites were synthesized from sodium type vermiculite by cation exchange with new intercalation agents. The results of X - ray diffraction study showed that the gallery distance of the organophilic vermiculite was enlarged from 1 nm to 5 nm or more. A new idea of making design for intercalation agent was provided.     

Synthesis,Characterization and DFT Calculation of a New Silver(I) Iodid Templated by Conjugated Cation:(ipq)_4Ag_4I_8

1 INTRODUCTION The construction and characterizations of low dimensional inorganic/organic hybrid materials have increasingly attracted the interest of chemists duo to their unusual topologies and relevance in a wide range of applications in materials science including transport, magnetic materials, catalysts, and lumi- nescent materials[1]. Among the various families of hybrid functional materials, the family of metal halides is an important one. As a branch of the metal halides, silver(…     

The effect of covalent surface immobilization on the bactericidal efficacy of a quaternary ammonium compound

This study investigates the effect of surface immobilization on the bactericidal function of a quaternary ammonium compound. Quaternary ammonium silane (QAS) coated planar surfaces did not produce any measurable mortality of Staphylococcus aureus, while 1 µm QAS‐coated microparticles did produce S. aureus mortality. The experiments using QAS‐coated microparticles indicate that the ability of QAS molecules to disrupt the cell wall is not hindered by covalent immobilization of QAS to a surface. These results provide evidence that S. aureus cells on a QAS‐coated planar surface are not exposed to a sufficient number of QAS molecules to produce significant mortality. This result has important implications for the development of self‐decontaminating coatings. Covalent immobilization is used to prevent leaching of the bactericidal compound. However, covalent immobilization may result in a significant tradeoff in bactericidal performance. Published in 2007 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

The thermal decomposition of NaHCO3 powders and single crystals

The thermal decomposition of four commercial powders and of differently stored single crystals of sodium hydrogen carbonate is studied by power compensation DSC and by optical and FT-IR microscopy. Independently of manufacturer, specified purity and price, the thermal curves of all the commercial powders show a more or less pronounced low temperature peak preceding the one due to the main decomposition. Such small peak is not observed when samples of laboratory recrystallized material are used. However the thermal behaviour of the latter preparation differs remarkably depending on storage conditions: the material kept in closed glass containers decomposes at temperatures higher than those of the material stored in a dessiccator in the presence of concentrated H₂SO₄. The observation by optical microscopy of the behaviour of the surfaces of single crystals coming from different storage conditions when the temperature is raised in a Kofler heater helps the interpretation of the data collected. The mechanism of the decomposition is discussed and the relevant kinetic parameters reported.

Synthesis, Characterization and Thermal Decomposition Mechanism of Cetyltrimethyl Ammonium Tetrathiotungstate

The synthesis, characterization and thermal decomposition mechanism of cetyltrimethyl ammonium tetrathiotungstate （CTriMATT） were studied herein. The as-synthesized CTriMATT was characterized by Elemental analysis, X-ray diffraction （XRD）, Fourier transform infrared （FT-IR）, Ultraviolet visible （UV-Vis） spectra. The results showed that the as-synthesized CTriMATT had high purity and good crystallinity. The introduction of alkyl groups induced a shift of the stretching vibration band of W-S bond to lower wavenumber, while it had no influence on the position of WS4^2-. Thermogravimetric analysis （TG）, differential thermal analysis （DTA） and in situ XRD characterizations revealed that CTriMATT began to decompose at 423 K in nitrogen and was converted to WS2 eventually. In addition, the decomposition product of CTriMATT at 673 K in nitrogen was characterized by N2 adsorption （BET） and scanning electron microscopy （SEM）. The results demonstrated that WS2 with higher specific surface area, and pore volume could be obtained from the thermal decomposition of CTriMATT in nitrogen.
