Comparison of Neural Networks and Theoretical Correction Models

In x-ray fluorescence spectrometry, matrix effects have to be corrected. The empiric equations, the theoretical coefficients and the fundamental parameters can be applied in the purpose. The classical matrix correction models include mainly Lachance-Trail,Rousseau, De Jongh, Claisse-Quentin, COLA algorithms,etc. The good results can be obtained by using a number of standards or the theoretical Alpha coefficients if the range of component concentrations in samples is not very wide. When unknown samples with a wide range of concentrations are predicted, a recalculation process of the theoretical Alpha coefficients has to be made. In addition, a spline function may be chosen to split wide range in several segments.     

Highly Diastereoselective Synthesis of Syn‐1,3‐Dihydroxyketone Motifs from Propargylic Alcohols via Spiroepoxide Intermediates

Syn dihydroxyketone motifs are embedded in a wide range of biologically active natural products, however the development of stereoselective synthetic methods to assemble these structures has proven a challenging task. We report a highly diastereoselective method for the synthesis of syn dihydroxyketones from propargylic alcohols, with wide scope for application in natural product synthesis. The reaction sequence involves regioselective cyclisation of propargylic alcohols with incorporation of a triketone to give enol dioxolanes that are then diastereoselectively epoxidised to form unusual spiroepoxide intermediates. Hydrolysis affords syn dihydroxyketones as essentially single diastereisomers. The reaction sequence is operationally simple, of wide substrate scope, and remarkably can be efficiently carried out as a one‐pot process with no loss of overall yield or diastereoselectivity.

Quantitative aspects of internal reflection spectroscopy: Polymer surface composition measurement

The use of band-ratioing techniques in internal reflection spectroscopy (IRS) for a wide variety of polymer surface composition and orientation measurements is discussed. It is shown that quantitative data can be obtained under a wide range of experimental conditions. The effects of variations in sample contact, internal reflection element, and angle of incidence are considered in detail. The applicability and limitations of calibration procedures for the determination of surface composition under various experimental conditions are considered. The requirements for obtaining quantitative results by IRS are shown to be far more lenient than is typically assumed.     

Control of column influence on the wide range pH gradient in ion-exchange chromatography

Summary A method for optimization of the mobile phase composition in ion exchange chromatography with a wide range external pH gradient (approx. over 5 pH units) has been formulated. It is shown that programming of various wide range pH profiles which are not impaired by buffer interactions of the mobile phase with sorbent is possible. Utilization of the wide range external pH gradient in cation-exchange chromatography of bovine haemoglobin is also demonstrated.     

Sealants based on urethane-siloxane rubbers curable under the action of moisture

Results are presented of investigations devoted to the creation of polymer compositions using oligomeric urethane-siloxane rubbers as basic polymers (foreign analogs are STO, SPUR or STP polymers). The sealants developed based on these binding materials exhibit a wide range of rates of curing, good physicomechanical characteristics, and high adhesion to various substrates. The corresponding low-, medium-, and high-modulus polymer compositions may find wide application in automobile and transport engineering, shipbuilding, the construction industry, and other fields.     

Syntheses of a wide family of new aryl based perfluorosulfonimide lithium salts. Electrochemical performances of the related polymer electrolytes

This paper reports both on a general multistep synthesis of a wide family of aryl substituted perfluorosulfonimides and on a preliminary electrochemical investigation of two lithium salts hosted by a poly(oxyethylene) homopolymer. Both salts have a cationic transference number more than twice that of LiTFSI. Additionally, one of these salts exhibits markedly higher cationic conductivities than POE/LiTFSI electrolytes. These preliminary data are very encouraging as, thanks to the aryl moiety, a wide variety of salts can be considered in order to still improve the performances of polymer electrolytes.     

Fluid dynamics of dilute suspensions and fouling of tubular membrane modules

The role of dilute suspensions in fouling a ultrafilter tubular membrane module is studied in detail for a wide range of wall permeation flux conditions. The inlet flow profiles are assumed to be either uniform (plug flow) or parabolic (fully developed) shape. It is assumed that the particles are neutrally buoyant and the concentrations are so low that it does not influence the fluid flow. Furthermore, the particle-particle interactions and the forces of interaction between the particle and the membrane wall are assumed to be unimportant. The governing equations of motion for the fluid are solved by a finite difference scheme. To compute the particulate fouling, the equations of motion for the particles are solved by the fourth-order Runge-Kutta-Gill method. Results are presented for both hydrodynamics and membrane fouling by dilute suspensions for conditions such as the effect of assumed inlet velocity profiles, and a wide range of wall permeation flux conditions.

Techniques for gas chromatography of volatile terpenoids from a range of matrices.

The commercial importance of the volatile mono- and sesqui-terpenoids has resulted in a wide range of techiques being used for extraction, concentration, chromatography, and characterisation of constituents. The major chromatographic technique is gas chromatography, and tandem techniques of chromatography linked to further chromatography and spectroscopy, allow much increased resolution, and greater ease of characterisation of terpenes. A wide range of extraction techniques are discussed, and suitability for particular matrices and sample sizes outlined. Chromatography operating conditions and stationary phases, and techniques for solute identification are laid out. A number of applications of terpene analysis in many different matrices are discussed.     

Scaling law of stable single cells in density fingering of chemical fronts

Stable single fingers evolving in a thin layer of hydrodynamically unstable reactive solution are investigated in moderately wide Hele-Shaw cells. The mixing length associated with the final pattern is shown to be proportional to the width of the container. The scaling law, which is best illustrated by the overlay of temporal average front profiles, is demonstrated for two chemical compositions and boundaries of different thermal conductances. The observed single finger is found to be independent of the orientation of the reaction vessel for a wide range of tilt angles.

Analytical estimates of front velocity in the frontal polymerization of thermoset polymers and composites

This note presents approximate analytical expressions for the velocity of the self-propagating reaction front in the frontal polymerization of thermoset polymers and composites. Prior estimates available in the literature for the front velocity have been limited by their applicability to simple reaction kinetics. The improved estimates provided in this work are shown to be applicable to complex reaction kinetics encountered in the frontal polymerization of neat thermoset polymers or fiber-reinforced polymer-matrix composites with a wide range of polymer chemistries, including dicyclopentadiene, cyclooctadiene, acrylates, and epoxies. They are also shown to be applicable to wide range of values of the initial temperature and initial degree of cure of the resin, and of the volume fraction of the reinforcing phase.     

Expansion of spouted beds in conical contactors

The expansion of conical spouted beds has been studied on a wide experimental base (using contactors of different geometries and solids of different diameters and sphericities). The correlation obtained for calculating the global voidage from the operation conditions is of a more general application than those previously proposed in the literature, which are generally centred on the study of voidage in the spout. The global incipient voidages are delimited for both stable regimes corresponding to two voidage ranges: spouting and jet spouting. While the correlation for calculation of expansion can be applied for the calculation of global minimum jet spouting voidage, a correlation is proposed for the calculation of the global minimum spouting voidage. This equation is applicable in a wide range of operation conditions.     

Electron-deficient 1- and 2-azabuta-1,3-dienes: a comprehensive survey of their synthesis and reactivity

Electron-deficient 1- and 2-azabuta-1,3-dienes are reagents intrinsically able to provide a wide range of cyclic and acyclic N-containing building blocks. Depending on their substitution, they behave as dienes for Diels-Alder reactions, as partners for [4+1], [3+2], [2+2]-cycloadditions, for aziridinations and as electrophiles for 1,2 and 1,4-additions. Nowadays, they are a very versatile family of compounds, despite their usual instability and complex reactivity. Four decades of research in this challenging area are reviewed in this critical review: their synthetic aspects and their reactivity towards a wide range of dienophiles, dipoles and nucleophiles are described as well. The introduction focuses on their electronic properties in order to get a clear picture of their reactivity (190 references).
