Kinetics and Bacterial Inactivation Induced by Peroxynitrite in Electric Discharges in Air

The mechanism of bacterial inactivation by electric discharges (non-thermal plasma) is examined on the basis of the action of the formed peroxynitrite and hydrogen peroxide on the external membrane of bacteria. A model accounts for the gas to liquid transfer of the active species which react with the bacterial wall at the liquid surface or /and in the bulk solution. Direct exposure to the glidarc discharge induces a pseudo zero order decay of the bacterial concentration, followed by a pseudo 1st order step for low concentrations. Post-discharge reactions develop after switching off the discharge according to a 1st order mechanism and show that active species drift in the solution. Additionally the bactericidal properties of pure water exposed to the discharge (i.e., ??Plasma Activated Water??) was evidenced even 24?h after performing the plasma treatment.

Degradation of Phenol in Aqueous Solutions by Gas–Liquid Gliding Arc Discharges

The efficiency of a gliding arc reactor designed with the aim to degrade aqueous phenol solutions is studied as a function of supply voltage, electrode gap distance, and gas–liquid flow properties. This efficiency, which steeply increases when increasing the supply voltage, can reach 96% when the minimum electrode distance is fixed at 3 mm. Experiments show that phenol degradation efficiency also depends on solution pH, Fe²⁺ addition, gas nature and gas flow rate. Furthermore, degradation pathways of phenol in aqueous solutions are proposed.

Volumetric Properties of Aqueous Solutions of Cyclohexylsulfamic Acid

The mean apparent molar volume of cyclohexylsulfamic acid has been determined from the density data of aqueous solutions up to a molality of 0.540 mol⋅kg⁻¹ and at 293.15, 298.15, 303.15, 313.15, and 323.15 K. The mean apparent molar volume of the acid was divided into contributing ionic and molecular apparent molar volumes. The limiting apparent molar volume of the molecular acid amounts to (131.69± 0.02) cm³⋅mol⁻¹ and the limiting apparent molar expansibility to (0.130± 0.003) cm³⋅mol⁻¹⋅K⁻¹ at 298.15 K. From the limiting ionic and molecular apparent molar volumes the limiting volume change of ionization of cyclohexylsulfamic acid was calculated. A value of −7.76 cm³⋅mol⁻¹ was evaluated at 298.15 K. The temperature dependence of the volume change of ionization amounts to −(0.018± 0.009) cm³⋅mol⁻¹⋅K⁻¹. From the density data the coefficient of thermal expansion of the investigated solutions was calculated and from this the mean apparent molar expansibility of cyclohexylsulfamic acid was derived.     

Thermodynamic Properties of Aqueous Solutions of Lithium Chloride

Vapor pressure of aqueous solutions of lithium chloride were measured by differential static method, in a concentration range of 12.9-44.2% weight and in the temperature range of 30-100°C. The experimental data were fitted to the Antoine type equation: log P = A( m ) + B( m )/ T + C( m )/ T 2 , where A, B, and C are constants which are concentration dependent. Enthalpies of solution were calculated by the Haltenberger method using experimental vapor pressure data and heat capacity data. The Duhring and enthalpy-concentration charts have been constructed. These charts may be useful in the performance studies of absorption heat pumps.     

New Physico-Chemical Properties of Extremely Diluted Aqueous Solutions

The extremely diluted solutions are anomalous solutions obtained through the iteration of two processes: a dilution 1:100 in mass and a succussion. The iteration is repeated until extreme dilutions are reached (less than 1·10^-5mol kg^-1) to the point that we may call the resulting solution an extremely diluted solution, namely the composition of the solution is identical to that of the solvent used (e.g. twice distilled water). We conducted thermodynamic and transport measurements of the solutions and of the interaction of those solutions with acids or bases. The purpose of this study is to obtain information about the influence of successive dilutions and succussions on the water structure of the solutions under study. We measured the heats of mixing of acid or basic solutions with such extremely diluted solutions, their electrical conductivity and pH, comparing with the analogous heats of mixing, electrical conductivity and pH of the solvent. We found some relevant exothermic excess heats of mixing, higher electrical conductivity and pH than those of the untreated solvent. The measurements show a good correlation between independent physico-chemical parameters. Care was taken to take into account the effect of chemical impurities deriving from the glass containers. Here we thus show that successive dilutions and succussions can permanently alter the physico-chemical properties of the water solvent. The nature of the phenomena here described still remains unexplained, nevertheless some significant experimental results were obtained. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Interfacial Properties of Aqueous Nonionic Fluorocarbon Surfactant Solutions

The equilibrium, dynamic surface tensions, and surface dilatational elasticity of aqueous solutions of nonionic fluorocarbon surfactant are reported. The critical micellar concentration, CMC (0.023 mM) and equilibrium surface tension (24.6 m N . m^?1) at CMC were measured by Wilhelmy plate method for aqueous solution of C₈F₁₇SO₂N(C₃H₇)(C₂H₄O)_nH (n=20), abbreviated as EF122A. The surface tension decay is slower for C₈F₁₇SO₂N(C₃H₇)(C₂H₄O)_nH (n=10) system, abbreviated as EF122B compared to the EF122A system over short time region, which indicates the slow transport of the surfactant molecules to the surface. The relaxation time for surface tension decay is estimated by fitting a series of exponentials to the dynamic surface tension data and it decreases with temperature for EF122A. Slow exchange of monomers between bulk and interface is reflected in the high elasticity value of the air‐liquid interface for EF122B compared with EF122A within measured frequency window (0.125–1.25 Hz).     

凝聚液态水溶液中的化学反应

液态水是进行化学反应的最重要介质与溶剂之一,也是研究在凝聚(液)态中进行化学反应的主要对象。在不同的外界条件下(特别是极端条件下),液态水的组成、结构与性能会发生很大的变化,促使在其中进行的化学反应呈现不同的特点,因而形成了温和条件下、水热条件下(Hydrothermal condition)与超临界水热条件下(Supercritical water codition)三大类型反应的凝聚态化学。本文立足凝聚态,讨论了在温和(一般)条件下,液态水与水溶液的组成、结构与性能对发生于其中的化学反应(包括溶解与结晶反应、盐类复分解反应、酸碱反应、沉淀反应、成胶与晶化反应、水解反应、氧化-还原反应以及配位化学反应)的影响,包括对反应物存在状态与化学活性,化学反应的过程与机理,反应的中间与最后产物的组成、结构等造成的影响,以及产生的结果与规律等有关的反应化学。通过这些讨论我们提出应从凝聚态的角度看待发生于液态水溶液中的化学反应,并希望这种新视角对研究在其他类型液体(诸如有机溶剂、离子液体、分子熔体等)中进行的化学反应时有所帮助,同时能加强彼此间的交流、讨论与批判,协力为推动以液态为主要研究对象的凝聚态化学的研究与学科建设提供有益的基础。     

DMABN在表面活性剂胶束水溶液中的荧光性质

研究了对二甲氨基苯甲腈(DMABN)在各种胶束水溶液中的荧光光谱性质, 发现不同胶束栅栏层区域的不同性质影响了探针的分子内扭转电荷转移(TICT)特性. 对离子型胶束, 头基电场是主要影响因素, 促进了DMABN分子TICT态的形成, 反离子解离度琢越大, 胶束溶液中的Ia/Ib越强. 在非离子表面活性剂胶束中, 聚氧乙烯链环外壳包裹的大量水使其氢键影响明显, 而很短的聚氧乙烯链还可能带来端基氢的氢键作用. 从DMABN的光物理特性看, 欲将胶束作为分散载体利用其TICT态特性, 选择反离子解离度较大的阴离子胶束(例如SDS或SDSO)较好.

Electrosurface Properties of Schungite III Particles in Aqueous Electrolyte Solutions

The kinetics of electrolyte extraction into water and the electrosurface properties (adsorption of potential-determining ions H⁺ and OH⁻ and ζ potential) of five fractions of schungite III (particle sizes of < 5, 50–100, 160–400, 400–1000, and 1600–2500 µm) are studied in aqueous NaCl, CaCl₂, and AlCl₃ solutions at different pH values. It is shown that, in water and NaCl and CaCl₂ solutions, the point of zero charge (PZC) of the particles with sizes of 50–100 and 160–400 µm is observed at pH 4.0 and is independent of the electrolyte concentration. The isoelectric point (IEP) for small (<5 µm) schungite III particles is observed at pH 2.8. The IEP position is independent of CaCl₂ concentration, but it shifts to pH 2.4 when NaCl concentration increases to 0.1 M. The disclosed differences in the PZC and IEP values may be caused by different compositions of particles of different fractions. In a 10⁻⁵ M AlCl₃ solution, schungite particles demonstrate three IEPs (pH 3.0, 4.5, and 7.4) due to different degrees of AlCl₃ hydrolysis at different pH values.__________Translated from Kolloidnyi Zhurnal, Vol. 67, No. 4, 2005, pp. 450–457.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Aleinikov, Lorentsson, Chernoberezhskii.
