Complex polarizability as used to analyze dielectric relaxation measurements

The effect of representing dielectric properties in terms of the complex polarizability ^c = – i is examined. Loss curves ( and tan ) are shifted towards higher frequencies, revealing the existence of new relaxations and allowing the clarifications of ones already known. We have calculated the shift ratios (at maximum or tan )/ (at maximum or tan ) from the more conventional empirical equations representing the dielectric behavior. Some examples are given.     

Empirical equations of state for adsorption layer: Alkylthiopolyoxyethylene glycols

Surface tension isotherms ofn-alkylthiopolyoxyerhylene glycols:n-C _x H_2x+1S(CH₂CH₂O) _y H, wherex=5 to 8,y=3 or 4, were approximated with orthogonal polynomials to get good quality values of surface pressure (II) and molar area of the adsorbed layer (). The modified Volmer (*(–₀)=Z*R*T) van der Waals and virial equations of state were used to correlate and in terms of real two-dimensional gas. The combination of Volmer and van der Waals equations of state made it possible to determine the interaction energy, , which was prescribed to cohesion of hydrophobic chains in the adsorption layer. The value of for the amphiphiles in question was in the range 0.97–1.91R*T and the average contribution per methylene group was ca. 0.21R*T.The Lennard-Jones potentials calculated from second virial coefficient were of the same range as , but no clear relation was found between their values and number of structure elements of the alkylthiopolyoxyethlene glycols.Presented during 7th International Conference: Surface and Colloid Science, July 7–13, 1991, Compiegne, France

The relation between the nonlinear dielectric effect and solvent polarity

The relation between solvent polarity expressed through the Dimroth-Reichardt spectroscopic parameter E _T (30) and the nonlinear dielectric effect (NDE) expressed through the parameter /E² is demonstrated where is a change in the electric permittivity of a solvent in an external strong electric field E. Both E _T (20) and /E², determined in quite different ways, are extremely sensitive to the dielectric properties of a solvent which depend on molecular interactions. Linear correlations between /E² and E _T (30) have been found for n-alkanols representing hydrogenbond donor solvents, and for halogenobenzenes which are dipolar, aprotic, weakly-associated solvents.Part of this work was presented at The 22^nd International Conference on Solution Chemistry in Linz, Austria, July 1991.     

Interdependence between the dispersion of a solid decomposition product and its formation rate

In an analysis of the possible mechanism and kinetics of a thermal decomposition reaction with the formation of a solid product, the following features were considered: the collective rearrangement character of the transformation; the formation of a product with a different non-equilibrium defectiveness and free energy; the free energy relationship in the series of processes leading to products with different dispersions; the formation of intermediate structures; and the spinodal character of their decomposition. Relationships are presented between the rate of solid product formation, the process temperature, and the surface area and size of the particles.

Evaluation of energy distribution on a heterogeneous surface from heat of adsorption and its application to the ammonia/Na-Y zeolite system

The— function (energy level function) which represents surface heterogeneity was derived from theq— function (experimental heat function) in the case of reversible adsorption. The Langmuir equation was extended and applied to the procedure of calculations. An iterative calculation led to the most probable— function by setting theq— function and adsorption temperature. As an example for actual cases, the— function of Na-Y zeolite was calculated from theq— function obtained by the measurement of heats of adsorption of ammonia at 373 K. The— function thus derived seemed to be consistent with the positional distribution of sodium ions.     

Synthesis of dimethyl sulfide in the presence of zeolites

In the presence of zeolites, dimethyl sulfide is produced either through CH₃OH interaction with H₂S or via CH₃SH decomposition. In accordance with their activities, in both reactions, zeolites arrange in the same sequence: HZSMHNaY>NaXNaY. Realization of the reaction CH₃OH+H₂S is more difficult compared to methanethiol decomposition.

X-ray study of Re/Al2O3 and Re+Pt/Al2O3 catalysts using synchrotron radiation

Uning synchrotron radiation, L_III rhenium absorption spectra have been studied for Re/Al₂O₃ and Re+Pt/Al₂O₃ catalysts obtained by impregnation. For individual rhenium compounds a linear dependence between the shift of absorption edge and the state of rhenium oxidation has been found. The absorption spectra of reduced catalysts are significantly broadened as compared with those of individual compounds of the same valency. This points to the presence of rhenium compounds in different oxidation states.

Differential thermal analysis studies on the crystallization of strontium tungstate from sodium tungstate melt. Nucleation mechanism and induction periods

The nucleation mechanism, kinetics and induction periods in strontium tungstate crystallization from sodium tungstate melt in platinum crucibles were investigated by differential thermal analysis. Heterogeneous nuclei first formed on the metal platinate particles within the solution during the induction periods (¯t); the main crystal growth started only after ¯t and few new nuclei were then formed. At any crystallization temperature, ¯t varied inversely with the cooling rate (R _T), and with the rate (R_C) of development of excess solute concentration according to the relation ¯t = 1/(k ₁ R _c ), wherek ₁ and are constants. The critical temperature (¯T), critical supersaturation(¯ S), k ₁ and were evaluated.

Thermal properties of thio-and selenocyanatocopper(II) complexes with bipyridine and phenanthroline

The paper deals with the thermal properties of complex compounds of the general formula CuL₂(NCX)₂ (whereL=bipy or phen,X=S or Se). The phenanthroline complexes exhibit a higher thermal stability than those with bipyridine. For the latter complexes thermal decomposition begins with the release of bipyridine molecules, while for the phenanthroline complexes redox reactions of pseudohalogenide ligands with Cu(II) take place. The redox reactions start at a lower temperature for the selenocyanate complexes than for the thiocyanate complexes.

Die thermiscne Zersetzung letzterer beginnt mit der Abgabe von Bipyridinmolekülen, während bei den Phenanthrolinkomplexen Redoxreaktionen von Pseudohalogenidliganden·mit Cu(II) stattfinden.

Cadmium induced changes of the metabolic activity of the freshwater snailPlanorbis corneus estimated by direct calorimetry

By use of f1ow-microcalorimetric studies the effect of cadmium in the sublethal concentration range (0.5-h LC_{5 0} is 1.69 mg/l) on the metabolic activity of the freshwater snailPlanorbis corneus was revealed. The high toxicity was confirmed by the change in the heat production rate (mean value is 453 W/g fresh weigth) in a cadmium perfusate down to a concentration of 0.01 g/l. The decrease in heat output depended on the cadmium concentration and amounted from 19% at 0.01 g/l to 88% at 1000 g/l. The microcalorimetric method proved to be a useful continuous-f1ow technique to assess qualitatively and quantitatively the toxic effects of cadmium on an aquatic organism already 4 hours after exposure.
