ESR spectra of47Ti-enriched titanium catalysts for polymerization

For the first time ESR spectra of⁴⁷Ti-enriched Ziegler system Ti-TIBA in toluene have been studied. For the ratio Ti/Al1, more accurate h. f. s. constants have been found. For Ti/Al1/15 no h. f. s. have been observed, which is ascribed to ordering due to the cooperative Jahn-Teller effect.

Thermal decomposition of calcium sulphate in carbon monoxide

Simultaneous TG and DTA studies were performed on analytical grade calcium sulfate and on samples of natural gypsum and phosphogypsum in carbon monoxide atmosphere. The decomposition temperatures and mechanism are influenced by the mineral impurities of the sample and the heating rate as well as the CO content of the gas atmosphere.

Excess enthalpies of aqueous solutions of small peptides at 25°C

Heats of dilution of aqueous solutions of the following di-and tripeptides were determined at 25°C over a wide concentration range: -alanyl-glycine, -alanyl--alanine, DL--alanyl-glycine, glycyl-DL--alanine, L--alanyl-L-alanine, DL--alanyl-DL--alanine, DL--alanyl-DL-valine, DL--alanyl--alanine, glycyl--aminobutyric acid, glycyl-L-leucine and DL--alanyl-glycylglycine. The excess enthalpies H^ex and partial molar relative enthalpies L₂ were calculated and enthalpy coefficients of intermolecular interaction were analysed using the additivity principle of Savage and Wood. The concentration dependence of the enthalpic characteristics of peptide-peptide interactions is discussed based on of their hydrophobicity and hydrophilicity. The three-stage model of peptide association is described using enthalpic coefficients of intermolecular interactions.     

Photochemical reactions of anthraquinone with hydrocarbons in the presence and absence of oxygen: Trapping of radical intermediates

Radical intermediates formed at 25°C in the presence and absence of oxygen during the photolysis of anthraquinone in aromatic, cyclic and aliphatic hydrocarbon solvents were trapped by 2,6-dichloronitrosobenzene, 2,6-dibromonitrosobenzene and 2,4,6-tribromonitrosobenzene. The resulting nitroxide radicals have been characterized in situ by ESR spectra.

Structure, activity and selectivity of V2O5-TiO2 catalysts for o-xylene conversion

The formation of needle shaped crystallites of V₆O₁₃ at low V concentrations on V₂O₅-anatase coated catalysts explains the low selectivity for phthalic anhydride during o-xylene oxidation. The (010) plane of V-oxide, most active for selective oxidation of o-xylene, is not accessible and the contact of this plane with the anatase faces promotes the anatase-rutile transformation and the incorporation and blocking of V⁴⁺ ions.

On stochastic models of solid-state reactions

The Avrami model of solid-state reactions or transformations has frequently been presented and compared with other stochastic models. The equation often applied is shown to be merely a simplification of the full Avrami model equation (FAME). A convenient procedure for application of the FAME to the kinetics of solid-state reactions is proposed.

Study of thermal properties of endellite clay compound

The temperature dependence of the thermal properties (specific heat,C _p, thermal diffusivity,a, and thermal conductivity,K) of endellite clay has been investigated over the temperature rangeR·TT/280 °C using the plane temperature wave technique. The experimental results showed that in the initial stage of temperature rise botha andK diminish exponentially with increasing temperature up to 100 °C. Above 100 °C, the thermal parameters are found to reach stable values, namely,C _p=0.22±0.008 cal g^–1 deg^–1,a=(5.0±0.18)–10^–4 cm² sec^{– 1} andK=(2.2±0.16) · 10^–4 cal cm^–1 sec^–1 deg^–1. The explanation of the results was supported by using DTA and TG analysis.

Comparison of DSC and optical transmission measurements of polymorphic transitions

Using optical measurements on single crystals, the speed of first order transitions (K₂Cr207, KNO₃, AgNO₃) was determined and compared with the strongly smeared DSC signals.

Construction of a thermoanalyzer for DTA-TD-TMAG-T measurements on metals up to 1100 °C

A thermoanalyzer is described for the simultaneous testing of metals and alloys by three methods: differential thermal analysis (DTA), thermal dilatometry (TD) and thermomagnetometry (TMAG). One reference specimen is used as a standard for each of the above kinds of analysis. Measurements can be performed in vacuum or in a static or dynamic atmosphere of gases at any pressure between normal and 5× 10^–5 Torr. The temperature of the sample can be changed linearly in the range 20–1100 °C. DTA and TD are performed classically, whereas TMAG is based on the temperature and magnetic field-dependences of the reversible magnetic susceptibility of the sample. Some analysis results are presented.

Zusammenfassung Es wird ein Thermoanalysator zur simultanen Untersuchung von Metallen und Legierungen durch drei Methoden beschrieben: Differentialthermoanalyse (DTA), Thermodilatometrie (TD) und Thermomagnetometrie (TMAG). Für alle drei Verfahren wurde die gleiche Referenzsubstanz als Standard benutzt. Messungen können im Vakuum oder is statischer bzw. bewegter Atmosphäre von Gasen beliebigen Druckes zwischen Normaldruck und 5·10^–5 Torr durchgeführt werden. Die Temperatur der Probe kann zwischen 20 und 1100 °C linear variiert werden. Während DTA und TG die herkömmlichen Verfahren zu Grunde liegen, basiert TMAG auf der Temperatur- und Magnetfeldabhängigkeit der reversiblen magnetischen Suszeptibilität der Probe. Einige Analysenergebnisse wurden dargestellt.

The importance of the CO 2 2− anion in the mechanism of thermal decomposition of oxalates

The effects of active (carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide) and neutral (helium, argon and nitrogen) atmospheres on the course of thermal decomposition of oxalates have been studied and compared. A mechanism of thermal decomposition has been proposed on the basis of the results obtained, the first stage of which consists in a heterolytic dissociation of the C-C bond, with the formation of carbon dioxide and the CO ₂ ^2– anion.

Electrocatalytic properties of oxide catalysts on a carbon carrier

Oxygen reduction of H₂O₂ decomposition have been investigated on carbon black and on carbon blacks promoted by cobaltates of different metals. Gas adsorption and electrochemical measurements reveal that the increase in rate on promoted catalysts is connected with the dispersity of cobaltates on the support surface.

Thermal analysis of carbon anti-burn-on disperse systems used in foundries

Anti-burn-on disperse systems for foundry use, containing carbon (graphite or anthracite after different pretreatments, or mixtures thereof) in carboxymethylcellulose-water, were studied by TG-DTA. Thermal effects are attributed to the evaporation of water, the evolution of other volatiles and the beginning of ignition. TG is useful for determination of the water content.

Potassium addition to Fe/MgO, Ni/MgO and Ni/SiO2: Reducibility, dispersity and stabilization of the promoter by the support

The influence of potassium addition on the morphological properties of Fe/MgO and Ni/MgO has been investigated: KNO₃ addition to precursors results in a decrease of the reducibility and in a smaller dispersity of the metallic phase. A loss of potassium is observed at reduction temperatures in excess of 773 K. Silica-supported Ni behaves differently: silica inhibits the potassium volatilization and nickel reducibility is enhanced. This illustrates how promoter effects can be influenced by the nature of support.

Thermal degradation of some cross-linked copolymers of vinyl acetate

Pyrolysis in combination with gas chromatography and thermogravimetry were used to study the thermal degradation of some cross-linked copolymers of vinyl acetate with divinylbenzene and ethylstyrene. The temperature was varied in the range 200° and 800°. The thermal decomposition products of the analyzed copolymers vary greatly, both with the temperature and with the composition of the samples. The experimental data obtained led to the assumption of a complex degradation mechanism, evidenced by the overlapping processes and the unexpected contents of certain evolved compounds as a function of composition.

Reactions of isoflavone and 2-hydroxyisoflavanone with sodium ethoxide in anhydrous ethanol

Recent observation /1,4/ on the existence and unreactivity of IV under basic conditions, as well as its part in the inhibitory effect on the decomposition into deoxybenzoin is unequivocally proved by comparing the decompositions of I and VI. It is also shown that the decomposition of I is detemined neither by the character of the solvent nor by the nucleophilic character of the reactant, but by the possibility of the formation of IV.

Three-component complexes of cyclodextrins. Exciplex formation in cyclodextrin cavity

The fluorescence quenching of naphthalene, 1-methylnaphthalene, and acenaphthene by trimethylamine (TMA) was studied in aqueous -cyclodextrin (-CD) solutions to know the structural requirements for guest molecules to form three-component complexes. The apparent rates for the fluorescence quenching of the naphthalene derivatives by TMA markedly increased in the presence of -CD. The fluorescence quenching of 1-methylnaphthalene and acenaphthene by TMA was accelerated by -CD more efficently than that of naphthalene. These results suggest the structures of the three-component complexes as the arene-capped -CD including TMA in its cavity.
