Experimente und Modellrechnungen zum chemischen Transport von WO2 mit HgCl2 oder HgBr2

Experiments and Calculations on the Chemical Transport of WO₂ with HgCl₂ or HgBr₂ Transport experiments with WO₂ or WO₂ + W₁₈O₄₉ or W + WO₂ as starting phases show that HgCl₂ or HgBr₂ are suitable transport agents. When using HgBr₂ we observed (in customary silica ampoules) unusual high transport rates n′ > 1000 mg/h. Experimental and calculated results agree to a large extent if the presence of small amounts of H₂O from the quartz glass wall and the resulting gaseous particles (for example HCl or HBr) formed under equilibrium conditions as well as an influence of convection are taken into consideration.     

Untersuchungen im System Al3+?WO42−?H2O?H3O+

Investigations in the System Al³⁺? WO₄^2?? H₂O? H₃O⁺ The composition of the tungstoaluminate anion [AlW₁₂O₄₀]^5? was determined by means of the molar ratio and JOB 's method of continuous variations modified by us. The optimum conditions for the complex formation in the system Al³⁺? WO₄^2?? H₂O? H₃O⁺ were determined: 1.33 ≤ acid degree Z ≤ 2.5; 105°C; 2–6h (c = 7.15 · 10^?2–6 · 10^?3 moles · l^?1). The complex formation in dependence on the acid degree Z is complete at Z = 16 H₃O⁺/12 WO₄^2? = 1.33.     

Zum chemischen Transport von Wolfram mit HgBr2 – Experimente und Modellrechnungen

On the Chemical Transport of Tungsten using HgBr₂ – Experiments and Thermochemical Calculations Using HgBr₂ as transport agent tungsten migrates in a temperature gradient from the region of higher temperature to the lower temperature (e.g. 1 000 → 900°C). The transport rates were measured for various transport agent concentrations (0.64 ? C(HgBr₂) ? 11.74 mg/cm³; T? = 950°C) and for various mean transport temperatures (800 ? T? ? 1 040°C). Under these conditions tungsten crystals were observed in the sink region. To observe the influence of tungsten dioxide (contamination of the tungsten powder) on the transport behaviour of tungsten, experiments with W/WO₂ as starting materials were performed. According to model calculations the following endothermic reactions are important for the migration of tungsten: In the presence of H₂O or WO₂ other equilibria play a role, too. Using a special “transport balance” we observed a delay of deposition of tungsten (e.g. T? = 800°C; 15 h delay of deposition) with W and W/WO₂ as starting materials. The heterogeneous and homogeneous equilibria will be discussed and an explanation for the non equilibrium transport behaviour of tungsten will be given.     

Hydrothermal synthesis and crystal structure of Cs6[(UO2)4(W5O21)(OH)2(H2O)2]: a new polar uranyl tungstate

The hydrothermal reaction of UO₃, WO₃, and CsIO₄ leads to the formation of Cs₆[(UO₂)₄(W₅O₂₁)(OH)₂(H₂O)₂] and UO₂(IO₃)₂(H₂O). Cs₆[(UO₂)₄(W₅O₂₁)(OH)₂(H₂O)₂] is the first example of a hydrothermally synthesized uranyl tungstate. It's structure has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Crystallographic data: tetragonal, space group I4 cm, , , Z=4, MoKα, , R(F)=2.84% for 135 parameters with 2300 reflections with I>2σ(I). The structure is comprised of two-dimensional anionic layers that are separated by Cs⁺ cations. The coordination polyhedra found in the novel layers consist of UO₇ pentagonal bipyramids, WO₆ distorted octahedra, and WO₅ square pyramids. The UO₇ polyhedra are formed from the binding of five equatorial oxygen atoms around a central uranyl, UO₂²⁺, unit. Both bridging and terminal oxo ligands are employed in forming the WO₅ square pyramidal units, while oxo, hydroxo, and aqua ligands are found in the WO₆ distorted octahedra. In the layers, four (UO₂)O₅ polyhedra corner share with equatorial oxygen atoms to form a U₄O₂₄ tetramer entity with a square site in the center; a tungsten atom populates the center of each of these sites to form a U₄WO₂₅ pentamer unit. The pentamer units that result are connected in two dimensions by edge-shared dimers of WO₆ octahedra to form the two-dimensional [(UO₂)₄(W₅O₂₁)(OH)₂(H₂O)₂]^6- layers. The lack of inversion symmetry in Cs₆[(UO₂)₄(W₅O₂₁)(OH)₂(H₂O)₂] can be directly contributed to the WO₅ square pyramids found in the pentamer units. In the structure, all of these polar polyhedra align their terminal oxygens in the same orientation, along the c axis, thus resulting in a polar compound.     

Cerium(III) Complexes with Lacunary Polyoxotungstates. Synthesis and Structural Characterization of a Novel Heteropolyoxotungstate Based on α-[SbW9O33]9− Units

Several cerium(III) complexes with lacunary polyoxotungstates -B-XW₉O^9– ₃₃ (X=As^III, Sb^III) and W₅O^6– ₁₈, have been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray analysis, elemental analysis and IR spectroscopy. The X-ray analysis of Na₂₅[Ce(H₂O)₅As₄W₄₀O₁₄₀]63H₂O (1) reveals the framework of the well-known [As₄W₄₀O₁₄₀]^28– anion with a {Ce(H₂O)₅}³⁺ unit in the central site S1. The anion in (NH₄)₁₉[(SbW₉O₃₃)₄{WO₂(H₂O)}₂Ce₃(H₂O)₈(Sb₄O₄)]48H₂O (2) consists of a tetrahedral assembly of four -B-Sb^IIIW₉O^9– ₃₃ units connected by two additional six-coordinate tungsten atoms, three nine-coordinate monocapped square-antiprismatic cerium atoms and a Sb₄O₄ cluster. The Ce^III center in the [Ce(W₅O₁₈)₂]^9– anion in Na₉[Ce(W₅O₁₈)]NaCl30H₂O (3) displays the square-antiprismatic environment observed in all complexes of the type [Ln(W₅O₁₈)₂] ^n–.     

Partial thermal reduction of ammonium paratungstate tetrahydrate

Thermal decomposition of ammonium paratungstate tetrahydrate, (NH₄)₁₀[H₂W₁₂O₄₂]·4H₂O has been followed by simultaneous TG/DTA and online evolved gas analysis (TG/DTA-MS) in flowing 10% H₂/Ar directly up to 900°C. Solid intermediate products have been structurally evaluated by FTIR spectroscopy and powder X-ray diffraction (XRD). A previously unexplained exothermic heat effect has been detected at 700–750°C. On the basis of TG/DTA as well as H₂O and NH₃ evolution curves and XRD patterns, it has been assigned to the formation and crystallization heat of γ-tungsten-oxide (WO_2.72/W₁₈O₄₉) from β-tungsten-oxide (WO_2.9/W₂₀O₅₈) and residual ammonium tungsten bronze.     

Vanadotungstate isopolyanions with V: W = 4: 2 in aqueous solutions and in crystalline salts

Polycondensation in solutions containing HVO ₄ ^2? and WO ₄ ^2? ions in the 4: 2 ratio and the overall concentration c _v+w ⁰ = 5 × 10^?3 mol/l is studied. Speciation diagrams for individual and mixed vanadium(V) and tungsten(VI) polyanions are plotted based on the results of simulation for pHs 2–13 (Z = 0–3.50) on the nitrate ion background. The 6-isopolyvanadotungstate formed in the solutions retain the initial V: W ratio. The concentration formation constants for the vanadotungstate isopolyanions in aqueous solutions are determined. Compounds Tl₆V₄W₂O₁₉ · 5H₂O, Pr₂V₄W₂O₁₉ · 14H₂O, and Na₅HV₄W₂O₁₈ · 27H₂O are synthesized. Their formulas are identified using chemical analysis and IR spectroscopy.     

Study on mechanism of hydrogen adsorption on WO3, W20O58, and W18O49

The density functional theory (DFT) calculation of hydrogen adsorption on tungsten oxides and calculation of the crystal structure of WO₃, W₂₀O₅₈, and W₁₈O₄₉ were performed_. These calculations suggest that the length of W-O bonds in WO₃ are 1.913 Å, the length of 66% W-O bonds in W₂₀O₅₈ is 1.8 to 1.9 Å, and the length of 43.48% W-O bonds in W₁₈O₄₉ is longer than 2.0 Å. The hydrate (WO₂[OH]₂), as an autocatalyst in the hydrogen reduction process, was found in the particular adsorption configuration of W₁₈O₄₉. The WO₃ and W₂₀O₅₈ were completely reduced within 40 to 60 minutes at a temperature of 1000°C and at a hydrogen flow rate of 200 mL/min, while W₁₈O₄₉ was completely reduced within 20 to 40 minutes. The phase composition and micromorphology of raw material and production were studied by both X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) and FE-SEM technology. The differences of the mechanism of hydrogen adsorption on WO₃, W₂₀O₅₈, and W₁₈O₄₉ were explored based on the density functional theory calculation and the hydrogen reduction experiments.     

Zum Verständnis der Flüchtigkeit von GeO2 in Gegenwart von WO2

On the Understanding of the Volatility of GeO₂ in the Presence of WO₂ The equilibria composition of the gaseous and the solid phase in the system GeO₂/WO₂ is calculated with an improved thermodynamical program for temperatures 1100 < T < 1400 K and constant volume. By means of the results the experimental observed migration of GeO₂ in the presence of WO₂ in a temperature gradient T₂ → T₁ (1200 → 1100 K) in sealed evacuated silica tubes is dued to a chemical transport with H₂ as the transporting agent. The H₂ is formed by H₂O which is desorbed by the quartz glass of the ampoules. The also observed volatility of WO₂ and its deposition in form of Ge_0.75 W₃O₉ at the “cold” end (T₁) of the tubes is performed by gaseous GeWO₄. The calculated and experimental transport rates are compared and discussed.     

Synthesis, Structure, and Properties of the Cyclic Mixed Valence Oxothiotungstate [W8S8O8(OH)8(H3WO6]2−

The novel polyoxothioanion [W₈S₈O₈(OH)₈(H₃WO₆]^2– was prepared by acido-basic condensation of four [W₂S₂O₂]²⁺ thiofragments in the presence of tungstate ion. Rb₃[W₈S₈O₈(OH)₈(H₃WO₆]13H₂O was isolated in the solid state and fully characterized by X-ray diffraction study (monoclinic, C2/m [a=20.3540(1) Å; b=11.8042(2) Å; c=13.9355(2) Å; =90°; =131.134(1)°; =90°]. The molecular structure consists of an octameric {W₈S₈O₈(OH)₈} wheel encapsulating a central octahedron {H₃WO₆}^3–. The packing reveals a remarkable 3-D array resulting from connections between Rb⁺ and octameric wheels. The Rb⁺ cations form infinite parallel chains, which are mutually connected by the cyclic oxothioanions. The compound was also characterized by infrared spectroscopy and elemental analysis.     

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.     

Beiträge zum thermischen Verhalten von Oxoniobaten der Übergangsmetalle. V. Zum Chemischen Transport von NiNb2O6 mit Cl2 und NH4Cl. Experimente und Modellrechnungen

Contributions on the Thermal Behaviour of Oxoniobates of the Transition Metals. V. Chemical Vapour Transport of NiNb₂O₆ with Cl₂ or NH₄Cl. Experiments and Calculations Well shaped crystals of NiNb₂O₆ were obtained by CVT using Cl₂ (added as PtCl₂) or NH₄Cl as transport agents (1020°C → 960°C). As a result of thermodynamic calculations the migration of NiNb₂O₆ in the temperature gradient in the presence of Cl₂ can be expressed by the heterogenous endothermic equilibrium (1). Assuming Δ_BH(NiNb₂O_{6, s}) = ?524.4 kcal/mol a satisfying agreement between thermodynamical calculation and experimental results can be reached. NH₄Cl is less suitable as transport agent, because Ni²⁺ is partly reduced to the metal by NH₃. The additionally H₂O produced by this reduction leads to a less favourable equilibrium position of (2) and to low deposition rates. .     

Chemischer Transport von Cr2O3 mit Brom und mit CrBr3/Br2 — Experimente und Modellrechnungen zur Beteiligung von CrOBr2,g und CrO2Br2,g

On the Chemical Transport of Cr₂O₃ with Br₂ and CrBr₃/Br₂ — Experiments and Model Calculations for Participation of CrOBr_2,g and CrO₂Br_2,g Gaseous chromium oxybromides that were unknown up to now cause the migration of the starting material Cr₂O₃ in the temperature gradient from T₂ = 1000°C to T₁ = 900°C when Br₂ or Br₂/CrBr₃ respectively is added. Model calculations show that under the influence of H₂O (from the wall of the silica ampoule) or O₂ (from a homogenous equilibrium between H₂O/Br₂) the transport takes place via the oxybromide CrO₂Br₂ of the hexavalent chromium (eq. (1) and (2)). For thermodynamical reasons eq. (2) seems to be more favourable. At higher temperature the less oxygen containing gas species CrOBr_2,g has also to be taken into account if H₂O is excluded. An addition of CrBr₃ lowers the partial pressure of oxygen (and of H₂O as well) in the system Cr₂O₃/Br₂. Under this conditions CrOBr_2,g becomes an important species for the transport of the solid phase (eq. (4)) and CrBr_4,g has to be considered as transport agent. Estimated values of the enthalpies of formation were fixed more precisely by thermodynamic model calculation. For CrOBr_2,g (system Cr₂O₃/CrBr₃/Br₂) Δ_fH°₂₉₈ = ?70 kcal/mol and for CrO₂Br₂ (Cr₂O₃/Br₂) Δ_fH°₂₉₈ = ?107,4 kcal/mol was found. The estimated limits of error for the enthalpies of formation given for both oxybromides are smaller than ±5 kcal/mol.     

A study of complexation of chloral hydrate with heteropoly anions having various structures

¹H NMR was applied to study the interaction of chloral hydrate in deuterionitrobenzene solution with tetrabutylammonium salts of the heteropoly acids (HPA) belonging to five structural types: Keggin (H₃PW₁₂O₄₀, H₃PMo₁₂O₄₀, H₄SiW₁₂O₄₀), Dawson (-H₆P₂W₁₈O₆₂, -H₆P₂Mo₁₈O₆₂, -H₄S₂Mo₁₈O₆₂), H₆P₂W₂₁O₇₁(H₂O)₃, H₆As₂W₂₁O₆₉(H₂O), and H₂₁B₃W₃₉O₁₃₂. The surface of the HPA anions is nonuniform in acid-base properties. A general rule for all HPA was found, namely, that the HPA acidity increases with a decrease in the specific anion charge (per W or Mo atom).

Untersuchungen zum chemischen Transport der Vanadiumoxide V2O5, V3O7 und V6O13

Chemical transport of the vanadium oxides V₂O₅, V₃O₇, and V₆O₁₃ The suitability of water and some halogenating transport agents (NH₄Cl, NH₄Br, I₂) for the chemical transport (temperature gradient 850/750 K) of V₂O₅, V₃O₇, and V₆O₁₃ has been investigated. Transport rates for V₂O₅ and V₆O₁₃ could be measured and reproduced. The best transport agent for V₂O₅ is NH₄Cl or H₂O. For V₃O₇ a combination of the transport agents I₂/H₂O give the best results and for V₆O₁₃ the combination of NH₄Br/H₂O was most appropriate.     

K11[HSn(PWO34)2] · 27 H2O – Synthese und Struktur

K₁₁[HSn (PW O₃₄)₂] · 27 H₂O – Synthesis and Structure K₁₁[HSn (PWO₃₄)₂] · 27 H₂O 1 can be synthesized in an “one-pot reaction” from commercially obtainable educts (SnCl₂; Na₂HPO₄ · 7 H₂O, Na₂WO₄ · 2 H₂O) in high yields and has been characterized by elemental analysis, IR/Raman-, UV/Vis-spectroscopy as well as by X-ray crystal structure analysis. The example of 1 again demonstrates the validity of our working hypothesis, that polyoxometalates can be obtained by linking highly charged, transferable building blocks by cationic centres within the scope of an optimal charge control.

Thermodynamische analyse des einflusses von sauerstoff auf die reaktionsgleichgewichte im hochtemperaturbereich des systems wolfram-fluor

The gas-phase composition in the heterogenous system W/F₂/O₂ has been calculated using a digital computer on the basis that thermodynamic equilibrium is attained at the gas/solid interface and that the rate of reaction is not kinetically controlled.The partial pressures of the various components, i.e. WF, WF₂, WF₄, WF₅, WF₆, WO₂F₂, WOF₄, F₂, F, O₂, O and WO, WO₂, WO₃, W₂O₆, W₃O₈, W₃O₉ and W₄O₁₂ have been evaluated as a function of the temperature and the relative concentrations of fluorine and oxygen in the input gas.From the temperature dependence of the mass balance of tungsten, the direction of the chemical transport reactions may be predicted. The transport reactions are very much influenced by the presence of oxygen. Due to the formation of WO₂F₂ the maximum which occurs in the mass balance at moderate temperatures (as found in the pure W/F₂ system) is lowered and transport down the temperature gradient at low temperatures is very much reduced. In the high temperature region, oxygen only has a limited effect on the transport properties.The calculations have been confirmed by some experimental observations on halogen incandescent lamps.
