Characterization of nickel loaded mordenite catalysts by temperature programmed reduction

Temperature programmed reduction (TPR) has been used to study the redox behavior of Ni(II) ions in nickel sodium mordenite (NiNaM) and decationated nickel mordenite (NiHM). The TPR profiles suggest that Ni(II) ions occupy nonequivalent sites with different cooridination states in the mordenite. The reducibility of Ni(II) depends strongly on the zeolite acidity.

Non-radioactive determination of PTH and dabsyl phosphoamino acids by capillary electrophoresis

Summary Capillary electrophoresis is a novel technique in the non-radioactive determination of phosphoamino acids. The main advantage of the method presented is the high selectivity and the ability to separate all phosphoamino acid derivatives. Non-radioactive determination of PTH or dabsyl phosphoamino acids by capillary electrophoresis provides a fast and simple screening procedure for all O-phosphorylated amino acids in protein and peptides in the low picomolar range.     

On the preparation of 2-halo alkyl substituted 1,3-dioxolanes and 1,3-dioxanes

Several methods for the preparation of 2-perfluoromethyl-substituted 1,3-dioxolanes and 1,3-dioxanes were tried. The method of Nerdel for the preparation of 1,3-dioxolanes, making use of the condensation between carbonyl compounds and oxiranes, was found to be suitable for perhalogenated ketones and aldehydes, and may even be extended to oxetanes, affording 2-perhaloalkylated 1,3-dioxanes.The yield of the cyclic acetals drops with inreasing substitution.     

Thermodynamic simulation of four-component carnallite type systems

Summary The standard method ofPitzer for predicting the solubility isotherms of systems in which solid phases with a constant composition crystallize is applied to cases when mixed crystals are formed. The four-component carnallite type systems RbCl-CsCl-MgCl₂-H₂O, RbCl-KCl-MgCl₂-H₂O, and RbCl-RbBr-MgCl₂-MgBr₂-H₂O and the corresponding subsystems are thermodynamically simulated at 25°C. It is established that the solubility diagrams consist of crystallization regions of the simple saltsMX,MX, MgX ₂·6H₂O, and MgX₂·6H₂O and of the corresponding carnallite type double salts with the composition 1:1:6. A method of calculation of the integralGibbs energy of mixingG ^mix(s) of crystals formed in water-salt systems has been proposed. The results on the systems RbCl-KCl-H₂O, RbCl-RbBr-H₂O, and MgCl₂-MgBr₂-H₂O are compared with experimental data from the literature and with values calculated using various models.

Thermodynamische Simulation von Vierkomponentensystemen des Carnallit-Types

Zusammenfassung DiePitzer-Methode zur Voraussage der Löslichkeitsisothermen in Mehrstoffsystemen, in welchen feste Phasen mit konstanter Zusammensetzung auskristallisieren, wurde auch für Fälle angewendet, bei denen sich Mischkristalle bilden. Die Vierstoffsysteme RbCl-CsCl-MgCl₂-H₂O, RbCl-KCl-MgCl₂-H₂O und RbCl-RbBr-MgCl₂-MgBr₂-H₂O, aus welchen Carnallit-Typ-Mischkristalle auskristallisieren, und die dazugehörigen Dreistoff-Randsysteme wurden bei 25°C simuliert. Man stellt fest, daß die Löslichkeitsdiagramme sowohl Kristallisationsbereiche der einfachen SalzeMX,M'X, MgX ₂·6H₂O und MgX ₂·6H₂O als auch der entsprechenden carnallitartigen Doppelsalze mit der Zuzammensetzung 1:1:6 umfassen. Eine Methode zur Berechnung derGibbs-EnergieG ^mix(s) für die in Wasser-Salz-Systemen gebildeten Mischkristalle wird vorgeschlagen. Die für die Systeme RbCl-KCl-H₂O, RbCl-RbBr-H₂O und MgCl₂-MgBr₂-H₂O erhaltenen Ergebnisse werden mit experimentellen Literaturdaten und Resultaten von Berechnungen aufgrund verschiedener Modelle verglichen.

     

Polymerization of styrene started by free radicals,generated by external force action-chemical potential gradient of the swelling agent — on the PVC/solvent optical phase boundary

Summary There were studied the process of styrene polymerization in PVC swollen surface layer initiated by free radicals generated under the action of chemical potential gradient as an external force. It was found that conversion of styrene into the block copolymer is an diffusion controlled process.

Ein Dreikomponenten-Zweiphasensystem für die schnelle Flüssigkeits-Chromatographie

Zusammenfassung Für die Hochdruck-Flüssigkeits-Chromatographie wird ein Dreikomponenten-Zweiphasensystem beschrieben. Die Mischungslücke besteht zwischen dem wenig polaren Methylenchlorid und dem stark polaren Wasser und kann durch Zugabe von Äthanol als Lösungsvermittler geschlossen werden. Durch den Anteil der stark polaren Komponente in den jeweils koexistenten Phasen ist die Polarität von stationärer und mobiler Phase als stationäre gebunden und aus der mobilen immer wieder regeneriert. Durch Verteilungs-Chromatographie in der Mischungslücke ist eine Vielzahl von Stoffklassen der Trennung zugänglich, so z.B. Corticosteroide, Östrogene, Phenole, Phenolcarbonsäuren usw.

A three-component two-phase system for high speed liquid chromatography

Summary High pressure liquid chromatography with a three-component two-phase system is described. For the less polar methylenechloride and the highly polar water a wide range of incomplete miscibility exists which can be decreased with ethanol. The water content of the coexistent phases determines the polarity of the stationary and the mobile phases. The more polar phase is adsorbed on silicagel as the column support material and serves as the stationary phase. Numerous compounds can be separated by partition chromatography between the coexistent phases, for instance; corticosteroids, estrogens, phenols, phenol-carboxylic acids and so on

     

Open-circuit reduction of oxygen coverage on Pt by organic substances: II. Particular cases depending on the coverage degrees

Two particular cases of the open-circuit reduction of the oxygen coverage on Pt by organic substances are examined—at high and at low coverage degrees. Suitable expansion in series of the general equations of part I and some simplifications lead to linearized equations which can easily be verified experimentally. It is shown that the form of the initial section of the experimental curves (at high coverage degrees) can be explained either accepting a chemical reaction of the coverage with the organic substance or assuming that no chemical interaction proceeds and the form of the curve is determined by the double laye charing. The difference in the concentration dependences makes however these two mechanisms distinguishable. At low coverage degrees the experimental curves can be described accepting an electrochemical mechanism of reduction of the oxygen coverage with the adsorption of the organic substance as the rate determining step. The linearized equations derived allow the determination of the kinetic parameters of the process.     

Mechanism of o-xylene conversion on magnesium modifications of Y zeolite

o-Xylene conversions has been investigated in the presence of MgNaY zeolites with different Si/Al ratios and degrees of exchange. Disproportionation proceeds to a higher degree than does isomerization. The distribution of reaction products is attributed to geometric factors. The results are in agreement with a monomolecular mechanism of isomerization.
