Sensitization of the photoadsorption of O2 and NO on SnO2

Photoadsorption activity of SnO₂ with respect to O₂ and NO after CO chemisorption has been revealed to be drastically increased. Photoadsorption is suggested to be sensitized by surface carbonates formed due to CO chemisorption.

Study of crystal transformations by an evolved gas analysis technique

Small organic molecules can be entrapped within inorganic crystalline materials during precipitation. The material has no apparent influence on solid-solid transition temperatures, but some of it is released during the transition.Detection of the escape is reproducible within 1°C and may be used for temperature calibration. More generally, the escape of the organic during chemical reactions could be used for many of the applications of emanation thermal analysis.In coupled systems such as DTA or TG with mass spectrometry, or other systems involving gas transport, the time delay of the system can be measured accurately.

Zusammenfassung Kleine organische Moleküle können während der Fällung in anorganische kristalline Substanzen eingeschlossen werden. Die Substanz hat keine scheinbare Wirkung auf Fest-Fest-Übergangstemperaturen, doch wird ein Teil derselben während des Überganges freigesetzt. Der Nachweis der freigesetzten Substanz ist innerhalb von 1°C reproduzierbar und kann zur Temperatureichung eingesetzt werden. Verallgemeinert könnte das Entfliehen organischer Substanzen im Laufe chemischer Reaktionen bei vielen Anwendungen der Emanations-Thermalanalyse eingesetzt werden. In gekoppelten Systemen, wie z.B. DTA oder TG mit Massenspektrometrie, oder andere Systeme mit Gastransport, kann die Verzögerung des Systems genau gemessen werden.

Résumé De petites molécules organiques peuvent se trouver incluses dans des substances inorganiques cristallines, au moment de la précipitation. Les températures de transition solidesolide ne s'en trouvent apparemment pas affectées mais une partie de ces molécules incluses peut être éliminée pendant la transition. La détection du matériau qui s'échappe est reproductible à 1°C près et se prête à l'étalonnage de la température. En termes plus généraux, le départ de la substance organique au cours des réactions chimiques peut être utilisé pour de nombreuses applications de l'analyse thermique d'émanation. Dans le cas de techniques associées, comme l'ATD ou la TG avec la spectrométrie de masse, ou encore d'autres techniques avec transport de gaz, on peut mesurer exactement le temps de réponse du système.

Kinetics and mechanism of oxidation of quinol by alkaline hexacyanoferrate(III)

The reaction between quinol and alkaline hexacyanoferrate(III) at constant ionic strength gives p-benzoquinone. The rate of the reaction was first order in the concentrations of substrate, oxidant and alkali. The slow step of the reaction involves the formation of the p-benzosemiquinone radical, which was detected by esr spectroscopy as a five-line spectrum with peak intensity ratios of 14641.

Le systeme eau-theophylline

The binary system water—theophylline was studied by DTA and radiocrystallography. The slow dehydration of theophylline monohydrate was observed at room temperature at relative humidities lower than 60%, without the formation of any other hydrate. The isochoric phase diagram was established. At 78 °C, a peritectic invariant occurred, owing to decomposition of the monohydrate. The existence of only one binary compound (theophylline H₂O) was confirmed by the.Tammann diagram.

Bei einer relativen Luftfeuchtigkeit unter 60% wird bei Raumtemperatur eine langsame Dehydratation von Theophyllinemonohydrat ohne Formung anderer Hydrate beobachtet. Es wurde ein isochores Phasendiagramm entwickelt. Wegen der Zersetzung des Monohydrates tritt bei 78 °C eine peritektische Invariantheit auf. Die Existenz nur einer binären Verbindung (Theophyllin, H₂O) wird mittels eines Tammanndiagrammes bekräftigt.

Electronic spectrum and thermal decomposition of nickel(II) complex with bis(N-γ-pyridyl-4-phenylbenzamide-hydrazone)

The unit cell parameters and the space group of the investigated compound were determined by means of X-ray diffraction.Analysis of the diffusion-reflection spectra of the crystalline powder and the absorption spectra of its alcoholic solutions permitted identification and quantitative characterization of the absorption bands of the crystalline complex of NiL₂(ClO₄)₂·3H₂O.Application of differential-thermal analysis allowed determination of the mechanism of thermal decomposition of the compound. From these measurements, the expected configuration of the basic molecule was verified, involving determination of the number of non-coordinated water molecules.

Termination rate constants of peroxy radicals of seven polyatomic esters in benzene and perflouorooctane media have been measured by pulse photolysis. Recombination of peroxy radicals for all esters examined proves to be diffusion controlled. Reactivity of peroxy radicals in the termination reaction grows with increasing number of ester groups.

Catalytic oxidation of acrolein to acrylic acid over a molybdenum-vanadium catalyst

By the method of gas chromatography it has been found that the adsorption of acrolein takes place without dissociation whereas acrylic acid is adsorbed dissociatively. The adsorption of water vapor proceeds also dissociatively and results in increasing the number of the Brönsted acid centers. The presence of water vapor has a positive effect on the desorption rate of acrylic acid and a negative effect on the reoxidation rate of the catalyst.

Influence of carbon support pretreatment on properties of Pd/C catalysts

On the most significant processes of thermooxidative PVC degradation

In the thermooxidative degradation of PVC two processes are of decisive importance: the elimination of HCl in allyl-activated steps producing polyene sequences in the polymer backbone, and the radical chain oxidation of these polyenes. The two processes are closely interrelated as the carrier radicals of the oxidation chain initiate also sequential HCl elimination. This results in an enhanced rate of HCl elimination and a low steady-state concentration of polyenes.

On the sub-Tg annealing of uniaxially oriented and unoriented atactic polystyrene

DSC analysis was performed on uniaxially oriented and unoriented atactic polystyrene samples prior to and after annealing at 80 °C. With increasing annealing times, an endothermic peak appeared, whose area increased with the duration of the annealing period. No difference was found between the endotherm areas for the oriented and the unoriented polymer.The DSC curve of the unannealed oriented polystyrene exhibited a relaxation exotherm. DSC and relaxation studies indicated that this relaxation exotherm was independent of the main chain orientation; it may rather be due to sample densification.

Zusammenfassung Uniaxial orientierte und unorientierte ataktische Polystyrenproben wurden vor und nach dem Tempern bei 80° mittels DSC untersucht. Mit länger werdender Temperungszeit erscheint in endothermer Peak, dessen Fläche mit der Dauer der Temperungsperiode ansteigt. Die Flächen der endothermen Peaks von orientierten und unorientierten Polymeren unterscheiden sich nicht. Die DSC-Kurve von ungetempertem orientiertem Polystyren zeigt einen exothermen Relaxationseffekt. DSC und Relaxationsuntersuchungen ergaben, daß dieser exotherme Relaxationseffekt unabhängig von der Orientierung der Hauptkette ist und eher einer Probeverdichtung zuzuschreiben ist.

Study of the adsorption properties of a natural Hungarian mordenite and its ion-exchanged derivatives

The texture and adsorption properties of a natural, Hungarian mordenite were investigated by electron microscopy and BET adsorption measurements. The properties of the ion-exchanged adsorbents were characterized by CO₂ and SO₂ isotherms. The measurements were evaluated on the basis of the pore-filling theory of Dubinin. We have found that at 20°C the H⁺-form of mordenite interacts preferably with CO₂, while on the Na⁺- and Ca²⁺-derivatives stronger adsorption of SO₂ takes place. This fact accounts for their applicability as selective adsorbents.
