Thermal analysis of 1-Hydroxiethylidenediphosphonic acid and its salts

1-Hydroxyethylidenediphosphonic acid and its tetrasubstitutcd Li, Na, K, Rb, NH₄, Ca and Ba salts were synthcsized and their thermal behaviour was studied under non-isothermal conditions by simultaneous TG-DTG-DTA at 20–1000 C. The following thermal transformations were observed: loss of crystallization water, melting in the case of the acid, and intramolecular dehydration in the case of the salts, leading to the corresponding unsaturated derivatives. From the free acid, its acidic salts and the neutral ammonium salt, long-chain polycondensates are formed through intermolecular dehydration.

Zusammenfassung 1-Hydroxyethyldiphosphonsäure und ihr Li-, Na-, K-, Rb-, NH₄-, Ca- und Ba-Salz wurden dargestellt. Ihr thermisches Verhalten wurde durch simultane TG-DTG-DTA unter nichtisothermen Bedingungen bei 20–1000 C untersucht. Folgende thermische Umwandlungen wurden beobachtet: Verlust von Kristallwasser, Schmelzen (nur bei der freien Säure), intramolekulare Wasserabspaltung (nur bei den Salzen) zu ungesättigten Verbindungen. Die freie Säure, die sauren Salze und das neutrale Ammoniumsalz bilden unter intermolekularer Wasserabspaltung langkettige Polykondensate.

Tracer study of complete oxidation complexes in the oxidative dehydrogenation of butylene

A tracer technique using divinyl-¹⁴C was used to determine the butylene and divinyl contents in the surface complexes of complete oxidation during the oxidative dehydrogenation of butylenes over Bi–Mo, Fe–Sb and Fe₂O₃ catalysts. The rate of decomposition of the surface complexes was found to be independent of their relative butylene and divinyl content.

The thermal properties of carbon-silica adsorbents (carbosils) prepared by methylene chloride pyrolysis

The thermal properties of complex carbon-silica adsorbents (carbosils) were investigated using differential thermal analysis. The adsorbents were prepared by pyrolysis of methylene chloride. Pyrolysis reaction on silica surface was carried out at different temperatures (400–700 °C) and at different pressures of CH₂Cl₂ vapours. Thermal analysis was carried out in air atmosphere. The following parameters characterizing the properties of the adsorbents were determined: carbon content, specific surface area, carbon layer thickness, pore volume, mean pore radius, differential of heats of adsorption ofn-hexane and benzene, and micrographs. The correlation between topography and morphology of carbon deposits (dependent on the parameters of the pyrolysis process) and the courses of DTA and TG curves corresponding to individual carbosils have been determined.

Die Adsorptionsmittel wurden durch Pyrolyse von Methylenchlorid gefertigt. Die Pyrolyse wurde an der Oberfläche von Silika bei verschiedenen Temperaturen (400–700 °C) und bei verschiedenen CH₂Cl₂-Drücken durchgeführt. Die Thermoanalyse geschah in Luftatmosphäre. Folgende Parameter zur Charakterisierung der Eigenschaften der Adsorbenten wurden ermittelt: Kohlenstoffgehalt, spezifische Oberfläche, Kohlenstoffschichtdicke, Porenvolumen, Porendurchmesser, Ableitung der Adsorptionswärme vonn-Hexan und Benzol sowie Oberflächenmikrogramme. Es konnte der Zusammenhang zwischen Topografie und Morfologie der Kohlenstoffablagerungen (abhängig von den Parametern des Pyrolysevorganges) sowie dem Verlauf der DTA- und TG-Kurven der entsprechenden Carbosile festgestellt werden.

Comparison of properties of supported organozirconium catalysts containing zirconium ions in different valence states

A comparison of the properties of supported zirconium catalysts containing zirconium ions in different valence states in ethylene polymerization shows that an increase in the proportion of active centers involving Zr(III) ions results in a decreasing molecular weight of the polymer. The catalyst activity is practically unchanged.

Effect of oxygen on reduction of NO with carbon monoxide over NiO and Cr2O3

Cr₂O₃ is found to be a less active catalyst than NiO in reduction of nitrogen oxides. Introduction of molecular oxygen into the NO–CO mixture decreases the conversion of NO_x on both catalysts. On NiO it is due to competition between O₂ and nitrogen oxides for CO. On Cr₂O₃ it is caused by the complete suppression of this reaction.

Effect of heating rate and γ-Radiation on the structure of As4SexTe6−x Glasses

The phenomena accompanying the temperature-induced structural changes in five As₄Se_xTe_6–x glasses, withx=1 tox=5, were examined and are discussed. Differential thermal analysis traces of each glass composition at different heating rates from 2 to 50 deg/min were obtained and interpreted. The effect of the Se/Te ratio on the crystallization behaviour is discussed. It is interesting to note that the compositional dependence of the overall behaviour of the crystallization activation energy (E) seems to be similar to that of both the melting point (T_m) and the thermal conductivity () for the investigated glasses. Created structural defects due to gamma-irradiation have some effects on the crystallization process.

Durch y-Bestrahlung hervorgerufene strukturelle Defekte haben einen gewissen Einfluß auf den Kristallisationsprozeß.

Peculiarities of formation of ZnO and CuO-based solid solutions

Low-temperature (623 K) treatment of hydroxocarbonate compounds of copper-zinc and copper-zinc-aluminium leads to the formation of phases with CuO and ZnO structures, which are solid solutions of the promoter ions. The formation of solid solutions is attributed to structural distortions (uniform or local) in the oxide lattice due to the incomplete removal of OH^– and CO ₃ ^2– groups at low temperatures.

Determination of organic- and carbonate-carbon in freshwater lake sediments by a microcombustion procedure

A microcombustion procedure specific for the determination of total-, organic- and carbonate-C in freshwater lake sediments is described. The procedure involves combustion of the sample at 650° to obtain organic-C. Total-C is obtained by combustion at 950° and carbonate-C calculated by difference. The procedure was evaluated by differential thermal analyses of representative sediments and known carbonate minerals. A procedure for the identification of dolomite in lake sediments by differential thermal analysis under CO₂ is also described.

Synthesis and thermostability of the binary condensed phosphates

Some condensed phosphates, especially cyclo-tetraphosphates have been synthetized as new binary compounds and their existence has been proved. The synthesis of cyclo-CdMgP₄O₁₂ is shown as an example. The products crystallize in the monoclinic system (C2c group) and are stable to 900°C. The synthesis is based on a thermal procedure making use of the reversible transformation of cyclo-tetraphosphates to higher linear phosphates (the 1.method) and on a calcination of the starting binary dihydrogenphosphate at quasi-isothermal-isobaric conditions (the 2.method).
