The possibility of identification of substances which have similar spectral behaviour by means of Apparent Content Curves has been studied. This study is carried out with absorption, excitation and emission spectra of several amphetamines of widespread pharmaceutical use. Results obtained show that amphetamine, phenylpropanolamine, pseudoephedrine, phenylephrine, epinephrine, dopamine and methoxyamphetamine can be identified with a probability of >95%. 相似文献
A simple and fast HPLC method for the determination of glycols is described. It is characterized by a reversed-phase separation using water as eluent and a refractive index detection. The method was applied to investigate the biodegradation of glycols in a laboratory activated sludge plant and to determine the content of glycols or alcohols in detergents. The detection limit is 4 mg/l ethylene glycol or propylene glycol in an aqueous sample. 相似文献
Investigations of coated carbon fibres are reported using Raman spectroscopy. Relationships between different process parameters (for example precursor concentration, reactor temperature and various precursors) and the resulting types of carbon fibres are discussed. 相似文献
The analysis of PCB in transformer oils has been achieved with three HRGC/ECD based methods, proposed by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC/TC 10), by the Comité Européen de Normalisation (CEN/TC 19/WG 22) and by the Deutsches Institut für Normung (DIN 51 527). The same clean-up, described in the CEN/TC 19/WG 22, has been used for all the samples, allowing a comparison of the quantification procedure only. The total chlorine content has also been determined with X-ray fluorescence. These different methods of quantification are compared and their application for legislative purposes is discussed.Dedicated to Professor Dr Dieter Klockow on the occasion of his 60th birthday 相似文献
Summary A method is described for antimony preconcentration based on retention on a column of activated alumina. Recovery is 80% when no pH-control and 4 mol/l HCl as eluent are used. The preconcentration factor is 400. The method was applied to the determination of antimony in spiked tap and sea water. The analytical performance of the method is discussed. 相似文献
TiCx-PECVD-layers were characterized by TEM. EDX analysis and electron diffraction. TiCx-layers deposited using benzene showed a columnar structure, at which the column size decreases with rising excess carbon content. TiCx-layers deposited using n-heptane presented a lamellar structure, at which the lamellar thickness diminishes with an increasing excess carbon content. In dependence on the layer thickness a periodic progress of the element contents was observed, at which a maximum for Ti and Cl correlates with a minimum for C. It was found that the incorporated chlorine is bonded to titanium. The lattice parameter depends on the chlorine content. Using TiCl4/H2/Ar-gas mixtures without any hydrocarbon, layers containing TiH2 are formed. 相似文献
Summary The role of multivariate analysis methods in evaluating, rationalizing, and working out complex environmental problems is discussed. The discussion is organized in two sections; a literature analysis of the application of chemometric methods to PCDD/PCDF data interpretation and source correlation and a review of the role of chemometric methods in analysing the results obtained by the Authors studying PCDD/PCDF formation and destruction mechanisms in MSW combustion processes. 相似文献
The photochemistry of dibenzo-1,4-dioxin (7) and 2,3,7,8-tetramethyldibenzo-1,4-dioxin (15) — both of which have the parent ring system of the well-known enrimental contaminant dioxin— has been studied in aqueous solution and in selected organic solvents. It is shown that a novel intramolecular photorearrangement is the major mode of reaction for 7 and the exclusive reaction for 15, giving rise to observable (by UV—Vis spectrophotometry) intermediate 2,2′-biphenylquinones. Subsequent reduction by the organic co-solvent gives rise to 2,2′-biphenols as major or exclusive product. Thus, photolysis of these compounds generates oxidizing agents in the biphenylquinones. Photolysis in the presence of added NaBH4 resulted is greatly enhanced yields of biphenols along with more than 90% material balance. These findings have relevance to dioxin photodecomposition, which can be used as a method for its destruction. 相似文献
Solvatochromic shifts of pyrene (Py) and naphthalene (Np) excimers were obtained in polar and non-polar solvents. The observed shifts for both excimers are explained by changes in the polarizability between the excimer and the dissociative ground state. The magnitudes of the shifts in the pyrene excimer are larger, indicating that the pyrene excimer is more polarizable than the naphthalene excimer. 相似文献
The photolysis reactions of three compounds commonly used as a sunscreen agents, Parsol 1789 (1-[4-(1,1-dimethylethyl)phenyl]-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3- propanedione), Oxybenzone ((2-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)phenyl-methanone) and Padimate O (2-ethylhexyl-4-(dimethylamino)benzoate), were investigated to provide a chemical background to aid in the understanding of the photosensitization of the sunscreen agents. Photolysis was carried out in cyclohexane for 70–140 h using a mercury vapor lamp (450W) without excluding oxygen.
Irradation of Parsol 1789 in cyclohexane yielded tert-butylbenzene, p-tert-butylbenzoic acid and p-methoxybenzoic acid; products obtained from the combination of the sunscreen with the solvent included the cyclohexyl esters of p-methoxybenzoic acid, p-tert-butylbenzoic acid and methanoic acid; products obtained from the solvent included cyclohexanol, cyclohexanone and dicyclohexyl ether.
Irradiation of Oxybenzone in the cyclohexane for 100 h produced no detectable products by either gas or liquid chromatographic analysis. Oxybenzone was recovered unchanged and no products were observed from the photoinitiated reaction of oxygen with the solvent.
Irradiation of Padimate O in cyclohexane yielded the ethylhexyl esters of p-aminobenzoic acid, p-monomethylaminobenzoic acid and p-dimethylamino (o/m)-methylbenzoic acid, as well as products from the photoinitiated reaction of oxygen with the solvent. 相似文献
