Synthesis of non-agglomerated Ba<Subscript>0.77</Subscript>Ca<Subscript>0.23</Subscript>TiO<Subscript>3</Subscript> nanopowders by a modified polymeric precursor method

In this work, we have studied the influence of the pH on the synthesis and structural properties of the Ba_0.77Ca_0.23TiO₃ nanopowders synthesized by a modified polymeric precursor method, in order to achieve non-agglomerated powders. Synthesis, morphology, thermal reactions, crystallite and average particle size of the synthesized powders were investigated through thermal analysis (DTA/TG), X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) and Infrared spectroscopy. In summary, Ba_0.77Ca_0.23TiO₃ nanopowders were synthesized for the first time at a relative low temperature (500 °C). It was also found that the alkalinity and acidity of the solution presented a great influence on the powder properties. The best results were obtained from solutions with pH = 8.5 and 11 whose nanopowders presented weakly agglomerate, with homogeneous particle size and a narrow size distribution (30–40 nm). This behavior could be explained based on the FT-IR results in which it was possible to see the increased of the chelation in higher pHs.     

邻苯二酚与乙醇单醚化反应用固体酸催化剂表面上的积炭行为

 研究了邻苯二酚与乙醇气固相单醚化反应用固体酸催化剂表面上的积炭行为，并用TG－DTA，BET，GC－MS，FT－IR和元素分析等手段对积炭物种进行了表征．结果表明，催化剂上有两种类型的积炭，一类属可溶性积炭，主要由二苯醚及其衍生物组成，可在低温燃烧除去；另一类属不可溶性积炭，主要为缺氢的芳烃类聚合物或类石墨碳，需在高温下才能烧除．积炭主要发生在4～8nm范围的中孔内，导致反应后的催化剂大孔范围的孔分布所占的分数增大．随着反应的进行，总积炭量逐渐增多．

Classical Valence Similarity in Fullerene Derivatives

Summary.  The generalized Pauling bond order was enumerated in the C₆₀ fullerene cage molecule (truncated icosahedral symmetry). This index measures chemical similarity in fullerene derivatives such as dihydrofullerene (C₆₀H₂), anionized monohydrofullerene (C₆₀H⁻), N-substituted monohydrofullerene (C₅₉NH), the fullerene dimer ((C₆₀)₂), and the dianionic fullerene dimer ((C₆₀)₂ ²⁻). It is also useful in judging the chemical stability of isomers. Received October 9, 2001. Accepted November 9, 2001     

Chemischer Transport von Cr2O3 mit CrI3/I2 – Experimente und Modellrechnungen zur Beteiligung von CrOI2,g

On the Chemical Transport of Cr₂O₃ with CrI₃/I₂ – Experiments and Model-Calculations for Participation of CrOI_2,g Gaseous chromium oxyiodides that were unknown up to now cause the migration of Cr₂O₃ in the temperature gradient 1 000°C→900°C when iodine (e. g. 0.1 mmol/ml) and CrI₃ is added (eq. (1)). Transport agent for Cr₂O₃ is gaseous CrI₄. With a smaller concentration of iodine (D(I₂) ? 0.016 mmol/ml) and lower temperatures (e.g. T? = 850°C) the influence of H₂O (from the wall of the silica ampoule) becomes more important. Under these conditions the transport of Cr₂O₃ is a result from the endothermic reactions (2), (3) and (4). H_2,g has on the basis of the decomposition of HI_g a positive difference of the solubility and H_2,g should not to be considered as a transport agent. Because of the range of equilibrium-values the reaction 4 has to be taken into consideration. Estimated value of the enthalpie for CrOI_2,g is fixed more precisely by thermodynamic model calculation to Δ_fH°₂₉₈(CrOI_2,g) = ?51.4 kcal/mol. The estimated limit of error for the enthalpie of formation is smaller than ± 5 kcal/mol. Without an addition of CrI₃ is in the system Cr₂O₃/I₂ a migration of Cr₂O₃ not observable.     

Nafion-PAN optical chemical sensor: optimization by FIA

A copper-sensitive optical chemical sensor (optrode) is described. The optrode is based on a Nafion membrane and an immobilized organic ligand coupled with a flow injection (FI) system. The FI system includes a flow-through removable measuring cell and a simple spectrophotometer. Owing to the miniature size of the system and the efficient use of optical fibers, this optrode is well suited for monitoring environmental water samples. The success of the described optrode system depends on the effectiveness of the FI reagent delivery system. Optimum contact time with the membrane (as determined by the reagent flow rates) and the injected sample volume are critical. Environmental water samples were analyzed for copper content using the optimized optrode system. To validate the optrode's performance, the same water samples were analyzed using the atomic absorption spectrophotometer.     

Sorption of water vapor on cation-substituted vermiculite

Deformations of Na, Ca, and Ba vermiculites upon sorption of water vapor have been determined by a dilatometric method. Sequential stages in the hydration of interlayer exchange cations have been identified. The experimental results have been compared with data obtained in studies using adsorptive, calorimetric, and x-ray methods.Institute of Physical Chemistry, Russian Academy of Sciences, 117915 Moscow.

马来酸酐与1，2－环己烷二羧酸二异丁酯的气液平衡

采用小沸点仪测定了马来酸酐和1,2－环己烷二羧酸二异丁酯二元系统在不同配料组成条件下的温度与压力数据，并通过内插法得到不同压力下的温度与配料组成的数据.进一步采用单纯形法优化NRTL方程参数，推算了平衡气液相组成，发现该二元系统具有最高压力恒沸点，且该恒沸点随压力的变化显著.当压力降低至20 kPa时, 由温度随气相组成的变化趋势知该恒沸点将趋于消失.     

Orthogonal PbS nanowire arrays and networks and their Raman scattering behavior

Three-dimensional, orthogonal lead sulfide (PbS) nanowire arrays and networks have been prepared by using a simple, atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition (APCVD) method. These uniform nanowires (average diameter 30 nm) grow epitaxially from the surface of the initial PbS crystal seeds and form orthogonal arrays and networks in space. The growth mechanism has been explored, and the process was classified as homogeneous, epitaxial growth in the 200 directions. Furthermore, Raman spectra of PbS nanowires are reported here, and their characteristic Raman peak (190 cm(-1), no shoulder) could be used as a unique probe for the study of PbS nanomaterials.
