Natural zeolitic material of the clinoptilolite type and its AgI form

The aim of this study was the preparation of the natural zeolitic material of the clinoptilolite type doped with silver iodide. Natural zeolite from the East Slovakian deposit was used. This natural zeolitic material doped with AgI (content of AgI: 28.5%) has been investigated by X-ray powder diffractometry, EDS analysis, scanning electron microscopy, IR spectroscopy and thermal analysis.     

A study of the silver form of a natural zeolitic material of the clinoptilolite type

The silver forms of a natural zeolitic material (from the East Slovakian deposit) on the clinoptilolite type has been prepared. The silver forms of the natural zeolitic material were investigated by X-ray powder diffractometry, IR spectroscopy, ESCA measurements, scanning electron microscopy and conductivity measurements. Depending on the preparation conditions, the content of silver ions in the zeolitic products was found to be in the range from 16 to 24%. In the sample with a silver loading of 18.6%, the silver uptake is due to an ion exchange process, mostly involving Na(I), Ca(II) and Mg(II) ions.     

Cyclodextrins incorporated in natural zeolitic materials of the clinoptilolite type

Natural zeolitic material of the clinoptilolite type from a Czechoslovak deposit was found to be able to incorporate -cyclodextrin. The new compounds, possibly of the host:guest type, were studied by thermal analysis, IR spectra and diffractographic measurements.     

Electrical conductivity of hexacene doped with iodine

Hexacene (HEX) and derivatives such as dihydrohexacene and dihydroxyhexcane quinone were synthesized and thin films of them were prepared by the sublimation method. The structure and conductivity of the films both before and after doping with iodine were studied. The doped HEX film showed the conductivity of 3 × 10^?2 S/cm at room temperature, which was lower than expected since the conductivity of highly ordered pentacene was above 100 Ω^?1 cm^?1. The reason for the low conductivity was considered to be the disorder in molecular alignment since the HEX film showed an amorphous structure. A reversible change in the conductivity of the HEX film was observed in air and in vacuum.     

Cyclodextrins incorporated in natural zeolitic materials of the clinoptilolite type

Natural zeolitic material of the clinoptilolite type from a Czechoslovak deposit was found to be able to incorporate-cyclodextrin. The new compounds, possibly of the host:guest type, were studied by thermal analysis, IR spectra and diffractographic measurements.     

Heats of immersion of clinoptilolite and its ion-exchanged forms

The heats of immersion (in water) of outgassed clinoptilolite and its ion-exchanged forms were measured with a Calve calorimeter at 30°C, and the integral heats of sorption were calculated therefrom in order to use zeolites in heating and cooling applications. The immersion and sorption heats were studied as functions of the water saturation degree and the cation contents. The changes observed in the slopes of the sorption curves at low saturation for Ca²⁺ and Mg²⁺ ion-exchanged forms were related to the thermal destruction of the heulandite-type structure.     

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic studies of a iodine doped natural zeolite of clinoptilolite type and its thermally degradated products

An iodine containing natural zeolitic material of the clinoptilolite type heated to different temperatures was investigated by means of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and thermal analysis methods. At room temperature the iodine was found to be present, depending on the preparation conditions, in the form of iodide or iodide combined with elementary iodine. After heating to 200°C, only iodide was observed which persists in the product in a small amount also after heating to 900°C.     

Study of adsorption phenomena ongoing onto clinoptilolite with the immobilized interfaces

The development of innovative clean-up technologies remains a challenge as current procedures have many limitations, such as being expensive, concentration or pollutant specific, and many others. Natural zeolite of clinoptilolite type was beneficiated with surfactant octadecylammonium and alginate biopolymers using the sol-gel method. Carbonization process in pyrolysis chamber combusted organic waste materials and reaching the maximum temperature of 700°C was used for the surface carbonization, respectively. Resulted zeolite based products were analyzed by FTIR, TG, DTA and examined on the selected aqueous pollutants removal using the conventional laboratory adsorption experiments. The ability of ODA and alginate linked zeolite of clinoptilolite type to form complexes with anions (such as nitrate, sulphate, chloride and phosphate) and to remove them from contaminated waters was validated. Carbon deposition onto clinoptilolite surface originated from the pyrolytic carbon-rich waste combustion simulated the new zeolite based hybrid to active coke, adsorption efficiency of which towards phenol was approved. Thermogravimetric analyses of the advanced zeolite-based adsorbents were accomplished to find out how temperature resistant are the novel zeolite based materials in respect to the original, untreated one. While the native clinoptilolite indicated according to DTA analysis one broad endothermic response around 100–130°C, resulted from the loss of adsorbed water, by the ODA-modified clinoptilolite was except this DTA peak, the broad exothermic response started from 370 up to 560°C observed. This DTA profile is assumed to record a slowly breakdown of attached ODA surfactant and sequential loss of mass due to continual heating of sample under elevated temperature.     

Coordination polymers and a dinuclear complex constructed from zinc(II) ions and fluorescein: iodine adsorption and optical properties

Abstract

1-D coordination polymers, ¹_∞[Zn(fl)₂]·2EtOH and ¹_∞[Zn(fl)₂]·2MeOH, and a dinuclear complex, [{Zn(fl)₂}₂(dienpip)]·4H₂O·4EtOH (dienpip?= N,N′-bis(2-aminoethyl)piperazine), were obtained using Zn(II) ions and fluorescein anions (fl). Thermal analysis shows stability of the polymers after solvent removal up to more than 400?°C. Crystallization solvent molecules were removed under reduced pressure with the preservation of the polymeric structure, ¹_∞[Zn(fl)₂]. Desolvated crystals were exposed to I₂ vapors and the crystal structure determination by X-ray diffraction confirmed the presence of I₂ molecules in the channels generated in crystals by the metal-organic framework. The iodine content, evaluated by X-ray diffraction, corresponds to the overall formula ¹_∞[Zn(fl)₂]·0.3I₂. The optical properties of the coordination polymers and the dinuclear complex have been investigated.     

Eco‐friendly magnetic clinoptilolite containing Cu(0) nanoparticles (CuNPs/MZN): as a new efficient catalyst for the synthesis of propargylamines via A3 and KA2 coupling reactions

In this reaserch a new and eco‐friendly magnetic catalyst for the synthesis of propargylamines is reported. Initial incorporation of Fe₃O₄ magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) into the pores of the natural clinoptilolite zeolite followed by modification with epichlorohydrine and ethylenediamine and then immobilization of CuNPs on the surface of functionalized zeolite gave the desired catalyst (CuNPs/MZN). The CuNPs/MZN was fully characterized by various techniques such as FT‐IR, CHN, TGA, ICP, XRD, SEM, TEM and BET. A host of propargylamines were readily synthesized through using the catalyst in high yields and short reaction times via A³ and KA² coupling reactions of aldehydes/ketones, amines, and phenylacetylene. The CuNPs/MZN was easily separated from the reaction mixture by an external magnet and reused several times successfully. The catalyst has the potential for catalysis of various organic transformations.

Determination of trace amounts of vanadium by UV-vis spectrophotometric after separation and preconcentration with modified natural clinoptilolite as a new sorbent

Natural clinoptilolite was used as a sorbent material for solid phase extraction and preconcentration of vanadium. The clinoptilolite was first saturated with a cation such as nickel(II) and then modified with benzyldimethyltetradecyleammonium chloride (BDTA) for increasing sorption of 4-(2-pyridylazo)resorcinol (PAR). Vanadium–PAR complex was quantitatively retained on the sorbent by the column method at the pH range 6.2–7.0 at a flow rate of 1 mL min⁻¹. It was removed from the column with 5.0 mL of dimethylformamide solution at a flow rate of 0.8 mL min⁻¹ and determined by UV–vis spectrophotometry at λ_max = 550 nm. 0.031 μg of vanadium can be concentrated from 450 mL of aqueous sample (where detection limit as 0.07 ng mL⁻¹ with preconcentration factor of 90). Relative standard deviation for eight replicate determination of 5.0 μg of vanadium in final solution is 2.1%. The interference of number of anions and cations has been studied in detail to optimize the conditions and method was successfully applied for determination of all vanadium as V(IV) form in standard samples.

Study on the preparation and multiproperties of the polypyrrole films doped with different ions

Conducting polypyrrole (PPy) films doped with p‐toluene solfonate (pTS^?), perchlorate (ClO₄^?) and polyphosphate (PP^?) were electrochemically synthesized on the stainless steel SS‐304 and the Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) glass substrates successfully. The conducting polymer composite films were studied by Fourier transform infrared spectra, integrated thermal analysis system and scanning electron microscopy, respectively. Four‐point probe measurements and in situ nanotribolab system equipped with a nanoscale electrical contact resistance package were employed to analyze their electrical and mechanical properties. Results indicate that the film doped with PP^? ion showed the best thermal stability. For the ClO₄^? ion doped films, the glass transition occurred at 274.8 °C. The pTS^? ion doped film on the SS‐304 steel had a good conductivity, and there was a voltage barrier that ranged from ?1.25 to 1.9 V according to the current–voltage curves. Nanoindentation tests show that the mechanical properties of the PPy/pTS^? film and the PPy/PP^? film were better than that of PPy/ClO₄^? films. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Synthesis by plasma and characterization of bilayer aniline–pyrrole thin films doped with iodine

The synthesis by plasma and characterization of aniline–pyrrole bilayer polymers doped in situ with iodine were studied. The objective was to study the electrical conductivity of thin films composed of alternating layers of different polymers. The results indicated that the plasma technique is capable of forming chemically bonded layered polymers with several possible combinations. The electric conductivity was studied during heating–cooling cycles so the dependence of the bilayer polymers on temperature could be observed. The behavior was related with the Arrhenius model, with average activation energies of 0.4 ± 0.1 eV in the heating steps and 0.5 ± 0.1 eV in the cooling steps. The difference in both steps shows the influence of the aniline in the bilayer polymer network because polyaniline presents changes in the structure during heating processes. The bilayer aniline–pyrrole polymers had greater electric conductivity at room temperature than that shown by the separate homopolymers. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Thermal and temperature dependence of electrical conductivity studies on Zn,Cd and Hg hydrazone complexes

The complexes of Zn, Cd and Hg of isatin isonicotinoyl hydrazone were prepared at two differentpHs. Their thermal studies (TG, DTG and DTA) have been made and the DC electrical conductivity of compressed powder samples as a function of temperature was investigated. The activation energies (E) were calculated for the ligand and the complexes which showed that the ligand has a lower value of E than the complexes. The magnitude of E was found to be affected by the nature of the metal and thepH of preparation.

Zusammenfassung Bei zwei verschiedenenpH-Werten wurden die Zn-, Cd- und Hg-Komplexe von Isatinisonicotinoylhydrazon hergestellt. Diese wurden thermisch untersucht (TG, DTG, DTA) und die Gleichstromleitfähigkeit von gepreßten Pulverproben als eine Funktion der Temperatur untersucht. Sowohl für die Liganden als auch für die Komplexe wurden die Aktivierungsenergien (E) berechnet, wobei sich für die Liganden niedrigere Werte ergaben. Man fand, daß die Größe von E durch die Art des Metalles und denpH-Wert bei der Herstellung beeinflußt wird.
