Kinetics of copper dissolving in the water solution of polyacrylic acid or its copolymers with acrylonitrile and hydrogen peroxide

During the coating of metal plates by carboxyl-containing polymers from their solutions or dispersions, adsorption of the polymer onto the surface and oxidation of the metal by oxygen take place. Adsorption of polyacrylic acid and its copolymers with acrylonitrile at the copper surface and kinetics of copper dissolving in the presence of carboxyl-containing polymers and hydrogen peroxide have been investigated. The adsorption of polymers at the surface of the copper powder passes through a maximum when the content of acrylonitrile in copolymers rises. The rate at which copper dissolves increases with increased polymer concentration in solution, reaching a constant value, and does not depend on the hydrogen peroxide concentration. The rate at which copper dissolves depends on the rate of copper oxidation by hydrogen peroxide in the adsorption layer and the rate of polymer desorption. The increase of the solution pH leads to a decrease in the adsorption of polyacrylic acid at the copper surface and the rate at which copper dissolves in the presence of hydrogen peroxide.

Electrochemical characterization of copper chemical mechanical polishing in l-glutamic acid–hydrogen peroxide-based slurries

The effect of l-glutamic acid as complexing agent in the presence of hydrogen peroxide as oxidizer in copper chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) slurry is investigated. In the CMP process, the work surface is moved against a pad, with slurry flowing between the surface and the pad. The polish rate was found to be stable over a wide range of hydrogen peroxide concentration. High concentration of either l-glutamic acid or hydrogen peroxide leads to a reduction in polish rate, but a high concentration of both chemicals does not reduce the polish rate. In the absence of hydrogen peroxide, the Cu polish rate was 0 for all the l-glutamic acid concentrations investigated. However, potentiodynamic polarization curves do not show any sign of passivation when l-glutamic acid was present in the solution. In situ open circuit potential measurements show that copper redox reactions as well as hydrogen peroxide redox reactions contribute in determining the electrochemical behavior. We propose that l-glutamic acid inhibits the copper dissolution by adsorption onto the metallic copper, but enhances copper dissolution by complexing copper ions. The results show that it is possible to conduct controllable copper CMP in mildly acidic slurries with hydrogen peroxide as oxidizer and l-glutamic acid as complexing agent.     

Peculiarities of Polyacrylic Acid Adsorption on Copper Oxide Powder

The adsorption of polyacrylic acid on copper(II) oxide powder from aqueous solutions was studied. The amount of the adsorbed polymer was shown to increase with time reaching its maximum over 6–7 min. The desorption kinetics of copper polyacrylates was studied by measuring variations in copper ion concentration in the solution. The rate of desorption was found to be independent of the initial concentration of polyacrylic acid. A decrease in the dispersed phase concentration did not actually affect the initial rate of the polymer desorption. However, it caused a drastic fall in the rate of desorption after 1–1.5 min. A mathematical model was proposed for describing the experimental data.     

Electrochemical impedance spectroscopic studies of copper dissolution in glycine–hydrogen peroxide solutions

Anodic dissolution of copper in glycine solution at various hydrogen peroxide concentrations was investigated. The dissolution rate increases, reaches a maximum, and then decreases with hydrogen peroxide concentration. Anodic polarization studies and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) studies were carried out to determine the mechanistic pathway of anodic dissolution of copper in glycine system at three different hydrogen peroxide concentrations: one at low hydrogen peroxide concentration in the active dissolution region, another in the maximum dissolution region, and the third at the high hydrogen peroxide concentration in the post-peak-dissolution region. The EIS data in complex plane plots show presence of two capacitance loops and one negative capacitance loop. The impedance plot patterns strongly depend on the hydrogen peroxide concentration in solution. Reaction mechanism analysis technique was employed to model the EIS data. A three-step mechanism with two intermediate adsorbates and a parallel dissolution by catalytic mechanism simulates EIS patterns which match the experimental trends. The intermediates are likely to be cupric and cuprous oxides. The essential features of impedance spectra at various overpotentials at three different hydrogen peroxide concentrations are captured by the proposed mechanism. The results also show that the film present on the copper surface in glycine and hydrogen peroxide solutions does not passivate the surface.     

Thermodynamic Analysis and Kinetics of Etching of Thin PbS Films in Hydrochloric Acid Solutions

A hydrochloric acid solution of hydrogen peroxide was suggested for etching lead sulfide films. The solubility of lead sulfide in relation to the hydrochloric acid concentration in the etching solution was calculated using thermodynamic analysis, taking into account the stability of lead complex species. The kinetics of hydrogen peroxide decomposition in the hydrochloric acid solution was studied, and the formal rate equation of the process was constructed.     

Determination of tungsten in silicates and natural waters

Coprecipitation with hydrous manganese dioxide is used for the concentration of tungsten from natural waters (including sea water) and from solutions prepared from silicate rocks and sediments by hydrofluoric acid attack. After dissolution of the hydrous manganese dioxide precipitate in acidified sulphur dioxide solution, cation excliange is used to separate tungsten and molybdenum from other coprecipitated elements, hydrogen peroxide being used as eluant. Molybdenum is separated from tungsten by extraction of its dithiol complex from 24 N hydrochloric acid medium containing citric acid and can be determined photometrically. After destruction of citric acid, tungsten is determined photometrically with dithiol. The overall cliemical yield of th analytical process is 94±1%. The standard deviation of the method is ±0.010 μg for sea water (0.116 μg W/l) and ca 0.05 μg/g for siliceous sediments containing 0.5–1.0 μg W/g.     

Colloidal and Chemical Processes during the Interaction between Polyacrylic Acid and Zinc Oxide Dispersion

The kinetics of the accumulation of zinc ions in a solution during the interaction between polyacrylic acid and an aqueous dispersion of zinc oxide is investigated. It is shown that the concentration of zinc ions in solution reaches its maximum within 1.5–5 min after the onset of the process, depending on the concentration of the acid and zinc oxide. The initial rate of a process and the maximum concentration of zinc ions in the solution depend on the initial concentration of reagents in the system. The dissolution rate of zinc oxide is affected by the flocculation of dispersion particles and the concentration of zinc ions in the solution. The adsorption isotherm of polyacrylic acid on zinc oxide particles is of a step-wise type.     

Catalytic determination of molybdenum(VI) by means of an iodide ion-selective electrode and a landolt-type hydrogen peroxide-iodide reaction

A trace amount of molybdenum(VI) can be determined by using its catalytic effect on the oxidation of iodide to iodine by hydrogen peroxide in acidic medium. Addition of ascorbic acid added to the reaction mixture produces the Landolt effect, i.e., the iodine produced by the indicator reaction is reduced immediately by the ascorbic add. Hence the concentration of iodide begins to decrease once all the ascorbic acid has been consumed. The induction period is measured by monitoring the concentration of iodide ion with an iodide ion-selective electrode. The reciprocal of the induction period varies linearly with the concentration of molybdenum(VI). The most suitable pH and concentrations of hydrogen peroxide and potassium iodide are found to be 1.5, 5 and 10mM, respectively. An appropriate amount of ascorbic acid is added to the reaction mixture according to the concentration of molybdenum(VI) in the sample solution. A calibration graph with good proportionality is obtained for the molybdenum(VI) concentration range from 0.1 to 160 μM. Iron(III), vanadium(IV), zirconium(IV), tungsten(VI), copper(II) and chromium(VI) interfere, but iron(III) and copper(II) can be masked with EDTA.

Vertical copper oxide nanowire arrays attached three-dimensional macroporous framework as a self-supported sensor for sensitive hydrogen peroxide detection

A hierarchical nanostructure consisting of uniform copper oxide nanowires vertically grown on three-dimensional copper framework (CuO NWs/3D-Cu foam) was prepared by a two-step synthetic process. The uniform CuO NWs anchored onto the 3D foam exhibited outstanding electrocatalytic activity towards hydrogen peroxide reduction due to the unique one‐dimensional direction with its excellent catalytic activity and large surface area of 3D substrate, which enhanced electroactive sites and charge conductivity. As a result, a wide linear detection range of 1 µM–1 mM, good sensitivity of 8.87 µA/(mM ⋅ cm²), low detection limit of 0.98 µM, and rapid response time of 5 s to hydrogen peroxide were achieved under a working potential of −0.4 V in phosphate buffer solution (pH of 7.4). In addition, the CuO NWs/3D-Cu foam material showed excellent selectivity to hydrogen peroxide and good resistance against poisonous interferents, including ascorbic acid, dopamine, urea, uric acid, and potassium chloride. Furthermore, the CuO NWs/3D-Cu foam presented good reproducibility, stability, and accurate detection for hydrogen peroxide in real sample; therefore, it may be considered to be a potential free-standing hydrogen peroxide sensor in practical analysis applications.     

Determination of selenium and tellurium in electrolytic copper by anodic stripping voltammetry at a gold film electrode

A simple procedure for the determination of selenium and tellurium in electrolytic copper is described. These two elements are first separated from copper by passing an ammoniacal solution of the sample through Chelex-100 resin. Voltammetric interferences from nitrite liberated during the dissolution of the metal sample in nitric acid and from arsenic and antimony present in the metal are eliminated by addition of hydrogen peroxide. Excess of peroxide is quickly decomposed by the copper(II) ions present. As little as 0.01 μg Se g^-1 and 0.02 μg Te g^-1 can be determined; relative standard deviations (n = 5) are in the ranges 1.4–3.7% for selenium concentrations of 7.3–0.6 ppm in copper and 1.6—3.1% for tellurium concentrations of 4.6—0.5 ppm.     

Catalase biosensor for the determination of hydrogen peroxide,fluoride and cyanide

The enzyme catalase, which catalyses the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide to oxygen and water, was immobilized in a membrane by entrapping it in polyacryl amide and contacted to a Clark-type oxygen electrode. With the resulting catalase biosensor it was possible to detect the substrate hydrogen peroxide and the inhibitors fluoride and cyanide in phosphate buffer.The sensor was integrated into a flow system. In the concentration range from 5–200 mg/l a linear dependence of the peak height on the hydrogen peroxide concentration was obtained. The average decrease in activity during 30 days of storage at 6 °C was 17%. Fluoride and cyanide could be determined by measuring the inhibition of the enzymatic reaction in the same flow system. The analysis was executed in three steps; namely determination of the original activity by pumping substrate solution, inhibition of the enzyme by pumping inhibitor solution, and determination of the activity after the inhibition.The decrease in activity correlated with the inhibitor concentration of the sample, but a linear dependence was not found. The inhibition of fluoride and cyanide was both reversible, the enzyme membrane could be reactivated completely by pumping substrate solution. The detection limit was 1 mg/l for fluoride and 1.5 mg/l for cyanide.     

Determination of copper by its catalytic effect on the oxidation of hydroquinone by hydrogen peroxide on supports

The reaction of oxidation of hydroquinone by hydrogen peroxide catalyzed by copper(II) in the presence of 2,2’-dipyridyl is activated by hexamethylenediamino groups that are bonded to the surface of filter paper; additional activating effect is produced by 2,2′-dipyridyl. The introduction of malonic acid dinitrile into the indicator reaction improves the sensitivity of the determination of copper and the contrast of the reaction in solution because of the formation of a blue product. Differently colored compounds are formed on a paper support at different concentrations of copper, which makes it possible to visually distinguish the quantities of copper that differ by an order of magnitude in the range 1 × 10^-5-0.5 μg. Quantitative detection is possible in the range 5 × 10^-6-0.1 μg (c_min = 3 × 10^-6 μg). The concentration of copper (0.2-1.5 μg/mL) is determined in blood serum; the consumption of the sample per one determination is 3 μL

Preparation and properties of diatomite composite superabsorbent

A novel diatomite composite superabsorbent was synthesized by solution polymerization of partially neutralized acrylic acid and diatomite, using N,N′-methylenebisacrylamide as a crosslinking agent and hydrogen peroxide and L -ascorbic acid as a redox initial system. The influences of some reaction conditions, such as diatomite content, neutralization degree of acrylic acid, amount of initiator, amount of crosslinking agent, monomer concentration, and the reaction temperature on swelling characteristic were investigated. The water absorbency of the sample prepared at optimum conditions was 99 g/g in 0.9 wt% NaCl solution. The results of swelling rate measurement showed that diatomite composite superabsorbent had better swelling rate than that of poly(sodium acrylate) prepared in the same conditions. Other properties, i.e. water retention, reswelling ability and resistance to salt, were also examined. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Oxidation of phosphorus compounds by Fenton's reagent

In the present work a Fenton's treatment for the oxidation of a phosphorous compounds mixture, simulating a match manufacturing industry wastewater, were studied. Experimental tests were performed on three sample solutions at a phosphorus concentration of 250, 500 and 750 mg/l. In each solution an equal amount of sodium phosphite and sodium hypophosphite was dissolved. The investigation of pH, temperature and reagents ratio on the oxidation rate led to the individuation of the optimal process operating conditions. The results show that Fenton's reagent provides a powerful conversion to phosphate of the phosphorous solution. In particular at pH=3.5 and 20 degrees C a residual concentration of non oxidized phosphorus in compliance with the Italian regulation limits for industrial wastewater disposal. Tests performed on sample solution of 500 mg/l P and 750 mg/l P by adding hydrogen peroxide and bivalent iron in three sequential steps led to similar reaction efficiencies to tests carried out adding both Fenton's reagents in one step, but with a remarkably lower reagents consumption.

The apparent decomposition rate constants of hydrogen peroxide in acetic acid are presented.
