A study of the process of lignification of one-year willow wood

Conclusions 1. The content of lignin in the wood ofSalix viminalis andSalix acutifolia increases with the growth of the shoots during shortened days and also in drier climatic periods.2. The monosaccharides, glucose, fructose, and arabinose take part in the synthesis of the lignin of young wood ofSalix viminalis andSalix acutifolia. The formation of lignin of one-year willow wood takes place from May to January (with a maximum in June–July). The content of methoxyl groups in it gradually rises.Khimiya Prirodnykh Soedinenii, Vol. 5, No. 6, pp. 546–550, 1969     

Studies in the furan series

A study was made of certain transformations of the bicyclic compounds of the fur an series synthesized from 3,4-bis(chloromethyl)furan, N-butyl-4H, 6H-furo [3,4-c]pyrrole and 4H,6H-thieno[3,4-c]furan. On the basis of the same dichloride, 3,4-dimethyl furan and furan-3,4-dialdehyde were synthesized.For part XLVI, see [10].

The all-solid-state battery with vanadate glass-ceramic cathode

The Ga-Ag-Li|Li₇La₃Zr_1.89Al_0.15O₁₂|(Li₂O–B₂O₃–V₂O₅ + Fe) all-solid-state electrochemical cell has been designed with a simple sintering process. The Li₇La₃Zr_1.89Al_0.15O₁₂ solid electrolyte was prepared by sol-gel method. The lithium borovanadate glass was obtained by a convenient melt quenching technique. Cycliс voltammetry has shown that the current densities of the cell at 300 °C can reach several hundreds of μA cm^?2. At this temperature, the single cell voltage is about 3.2 and 0.8 V in the charged and discharged state, correspondingly. This cell produces a current enough to make a single LED of white color working. The cell surface discharge capacity exceeds 230 μAh cm^?2.     

Mechanochemical synthesis of nanosize tin dioxide powders

Structural parameters, dispersity, morphology, and magnetic properties of a tin dioxide-magnetite nanosize composite material mechanochemically synthesized from salt systems were studied. The possibility of using the composite nanopowder as a sorbent for nucleic acids was analyzed.     

Thermal and electrical properties of Ca5Mg4−xZnx(VO4)6 (0 ≤ x ≤ 4)

Calcium vanadates Ca₅Mg_4−xZn_x(VO₄)₆ (0 ≤ x ≤ 4) have been studied for the first time using a set of high-temperature methods of analysis. The onset of melting process determined from differential scanning calorimetry decreases from 1158 to 881 °C (± 1.5 °C) with increasing of x (dopant’s content). CTE temperature dependence is found to show a hysteresis. Electrical transport properties measured by impedance spectroscopy in air of different humidity are also discussed. The value of electrical conductivity does not depend on air humidity. It is found to equal to 1.5 × 10⁻⁶ S cm⁻¹ at 720 °C for Ca₅Mg₄(VO₄)₆ which is specific for garnet-related crystals.

     

The transport and thermal properties of glassy LiPO<Subscript>3</Subscript>/crystalline Al<Subscript>2</Subscript>O<Subscript>3</Subscript> (ZrO<Subscript>2</Subscript>) composite electrolytes

Glassy LiPO₃/crystalline Al₂O₃ and glassy LiPO₃/crystalline ZrO₂ (0–12.5 vol.% of oxide fillers) composite solid electrolytes have been prepared by glass matrix softening. Their thermal and transport properties have been investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and impedance spectroscopy methods. The addition of ZrO₂ leads to a decrease in the crystallization temperature of LiPO₃ glass. It was found that the conductivity behavior depends on the nature of the dispersed addition. In the case of the Al₂O₃ addition, the increase in the electrical conductivity is observed. The ionic conductivity of the LiPO₃/10% Al₂O₃ composite reaches 5.8 × 10^?8 S/cm at room temperature. In contrast, the conductivity in the LiPO₃/ZrO₂ composite system decreases.
