Transverse photothermal deflection spectroscopy (PDS) applied to thermal diffusiyity measurements

Transverse photothermal deflection spectroscopy(PDS) is applied for the determination of thermal diffusivities of solid surfaces. The theory of PDS is briefly recalled and some approximated analytical formulae concerning the transverse configuration are derived. In materials where the thermal diffusivity is smaller than that of the air, the dependence of the deflection angle on the displacement between pump and probe beams is shown to have a minimum that relates to the thermal diffusivity, thereby allowing its straightforward measurement. Measurements carried out on Al₂O₃ samples with different porosities at room temperature show a good agreement between experiment and theory.

Zusammenfassung Die transverse photothermische Reflektionsspektroskopie (PDS) wird zur Bestimmung der thermischen Diffusivität von festen Oberflächen herangezogen. Die Theorie der PDS wird kurz dargelegt und einige sich auf die transverse Konfiguration beziehenden analytischen Näherungsgleichungen abgeleitet. Es wird gezeigt, daß bei Materialien mit kleinerer thermischer Diffusivität als Luft die Abhängigkeit des Deflektionswinkels von der Ablenkung zwischen Pumpen- und Probenstrahl ein Minimum aufweist, das mit der thermischen Diffusivität im Zusammenhang steht und somit deren zuverlässige Messung ermöglicht. An Al₂O₃-Proben unterschiedlicher Porosität bei Raumtemperatur ausgeführte Messungen zeigen gute Übereinstimmung von Experiment und Theorie.

Redistribution kinetics of isotope molecules due to reversible bimolecular reactions with several atomic channels

Isotope kinetic equations for reversible bimolecular reactions describe the rearrangement of atoms in activated complexes. It has been established from the model reaction CH₄+HCH₃+H₂ that the isotopic homoexchange of methane via two atomic channels is given by one set of equations with different sets of parameters.

Supercooling phenomena in the binary systems: Acetamide-electrolytes

This paper presents a final discussion on studies of solutions of electrolytes in molten acetamide. These studies deal with cryoscopic and ultrasonic (by shear waves) techniques and reveal the complexity of the behaviour of these systems due to strong ion-solvent interactions.

Effect of nickel on the hydrogenating activity of MoS2

The activating effect of nickel on MoS₂ impregnated with an aqueous solution of Ni(CH₃COO)₂ and sulfided has been established to be proportional to the amount of active nickel incorporated as Ni²⁺ cations in the MoS₂ lattice. MoS₂ capacity for active nickel is limited and determined by the preparation method of the parent MoS₂.

Conversion of toluene on NiNaY and CeNaY zeolites

Ce–Y and Ni–Y zeolites were studied in the toluen conversion reaction before and after poisoning the acid centers by Na⁺ ions. It has been found that both Ce–Y and Ni–Y zeolites were active in the disproportionation of toluene at elevated pressures, which occur on strong Brönsted acid centers. The poisoning of the acid centers in Ni–Y zeolite led to the appearance of the activity of metallic Ni and complete change in the selectivity.

Chemisorption of H2, O2 and CO on bimetallic catalysts Rh?Ag/Al2O3

Comparison of adsorptive properties of Rh–Al₂O₃ catalysts in relation to H₂, O₂ and CO as adsorbates points to different surface interactions between the adsorbates and metallic surface of the catalysts. The differences may result from the changing composition of bimetal surface in relation to the catalyst composition and/or from the changing stoichiometry of surface interactions of the adsorbates.

IR spectroscopic studies of H2S adsorption on acid and base catalysts

IR spectra of H₂S adsorbed on various types of catalysts have been studied by monitoring changes in the properties of their surfaces from the spectra of probe molecules. It is shown that H₂S is adsorbed only dissociatively on basic centers (BC); on proton centers (PC) it forms H-complexes, while with the participation of strong Lewis acid centers (LAC), it is adsorbed both associatively and dissociatively.

Crystallization kinetics of polyamide 6 containing pigments

In terms of the Avrami equation, the effects of selected organic pigments on the kinetic parameters of the isothermal crystallization of coloured polyamide 6 were examined in the temperature range 468–478 K. It was found that B Blue and BB Red are active nucleating agents, which is acribed to their crystalline structure. G Orange slightly accelerates the crystallization of PA 6 at lower temperatures and concentrations, whereas in other conditions its effect is the opposite.The isothermal data were confirmed by the results of non-isothermal crystallization. The degree of supercooling corresponding to the peak of the DSC curve was the measured feature in this case.It was found that B Blue and BB Red reduce the free energy of formation of criticalsize nuclei by 20 and 12%, respectively, which is reflected in the rates of crystallization.

Zusammenfassung Mit Hilfe der Avrami Gleichung wurde der Einfluß einiger ausgewählter organischer Pigmente auf die kinetischen Parameter der isothermen Kristallisation gefärbter Polyamide 6 im Temperaturbereich 468–478 K untersucht. B Blue und BB Red erwiesen sich als aktive Keimbilder, was mit Hilfe ihrer kristallinen Struktur erklärt werden kann. Bei niedrigeren Temperaturen und geringeren Konzentrationen wird die Kristallisation von PA 6 durch G Orange leicht beschleunigt, unter anderen Bedingungen kann das Gegenteil beobachtet werden. Die isothermen Daten wurden durch die Ergebnisse bei nichtisothermer Kristallisation bekräftigt. In diesem Falle wurde das dem DSC Peak entsprechende Maß an Unterkühlung untersucht. Es wurde gefunden, daß B Blue und BB Red die freie Energie zur Bildung von Keimen kritischer Größe um 20 bzw. 12% herabsetzen, was sich in den Kristallisationsgeschwindigkeiten widerspiegelt.

Dispersity of oxidized and reduced palladium on Al2O3

The amount of PdO not dissolving in dilute HCl as a function of its content in palladium catalysts calcined in air has been determined. Mean size of Pd particles in the same samples has been evaluated from oxygen chemisorption. A comparison of these data indicates their correlation, which permits to determine Pd dispersity variations according to the solubility of supported PdO before reduction.
