Properties of the extraction system constituted by phosphoric acid produced from Khibiny apatite and tri-n-butyl phosphate

Data on the equilibrium distribution of phosphoric acid among the aqueous and organic phases in extraction of phosphoric acid with tri-n-butyl phosphate are presented for the system constituted by phosphoric acid produced from the Khibiny concentrate and by the extracting agent from the industrial system for purification of extraction phosphoric acid at 25–50°C.     

N-aryl-and N-vinyldiaza-18-crown-6: Synthesis and complexing ability

The nucleophilic aromatic and vinyl substitution using diaza-18-crown-6 as nucleophile afforded a number of its N,N’-diaryl-[aryl = 2,4-(NO₂)₂C₆H₃, 4-C₅F₄N, 4-CF₃C₆F₄] and N,N’-dialkenyl-substituted derivatives [alkenyl = PhC(O)CH=CH, MeOCOCH=CH, (EtO₂C)₂C=C(Ph), etc.]. Arylation of diaza-18-crown-6 with nonactivated aryl bromides, such as 4-Me₂NC₆H₄Br, 4-MeOC₆H₄Br, C₆H₅Br, and 4-CF₃C₆H₄Br, was effected under catalysis by palladium complexes. N,N’-Diaryldiaza-18-crowns-6 having electron-acceptor substituents in the aromatic rings turned out to be incapable of forming complexes with metal cations, while their analogs containing electron-donor para-methoxy and para-dimethylamino groups gave complexes with barium perchlorate.     

A fractal model of reinforcement of elastoplastic nanocomposites

Within the framework of fractal analysis and percolation theory, an alternative model of reinforcement of filled polymers is offered. Practically, this model can be used only to describe the reinforcement of nanocomposites, because, according to the treatment considered, a pronounced reinforcement can be reached only at ratios of filler particle diameter to the statistical segment length of about 10 and less. A theoretical calculation showed a good qualitative and quantitative agreement with experiments. The type of reinforcement mechanism of composites is determined by the type of the space (fractal or Euclidean) in which the structure of the polymeric matrix is formed. __________ Translated from Mekhanika Kompozitnykh Materialov, Vol. 42, No. 6, pp. 797–802, November–Decem ber, 2006.     

The fractal structure of nanocomposition polymer-silica sorbents for chromatography

The hydrolytic polycondensation of tetraethoxysilane in the presence of various polymers (polyacrylonitrile, polycaproamide, and chitosan) as templates was performed with the use of the sol-gel technology to obtain nanohybrid composite polymer-silica sorbents-nanofractals.     

Magnetic ordering of YBa2(Cu1−x Fe x )3O7

The Mössbauer spectra of YBa₂(Cu_1?x Fe _x )₃O₇ at room temperature show several doublets attributed to Fe in Cu(1) sites with different oxygen configurations. Here we present a systematic study performed at 4.2 K forx=0.005, 0.01, 0.03, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15. To obtain information about the magnetic ordered state two samples, withx=0.005 andx=0.15, have been studied at 4.2 K underB _ext=5 T. The Mössbauer spectra indicate that the iron moments are polarized forx=0.005, while in the ordered state (x=0.15) they have an antiferromagnetic or spin-glass-like arrangement with high anisotropy.     

Cyclization of N-alkyl azinium cations with bifunctional nucleophiles. 21. Regioisomeric 1,3,4-thiadiazino[5,6-b]quinoxalines

Thiobenzhydrazides undergo cyclization with N-alkyl-quinoxalinium salts to give 5-alkyl-substituted 1,4,4a,5,10,10a-hexahydro-1,3,4-thiadiazino[5,6-b]quinoxalines, which undergo isomerization to 10-alkyl-substituted thiadiazinoquinoxalines when they are heated in ethanol or in the presence of acids.See [1] for Communication 20.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 4, pp. 557–561, April, 1987.     

Elektrische Charakterisierung von Hochfrequenz-Niederdruck-Gasentladungen

In recent years there has emerged significant interest in low pressure radio frequency (rf) glow discharges which are used widely particulary in IC fabrication. Various parameters of the rf glow discharge have been found to be useful for its electrical characterization; however, there is no uniformity and agreement. Extensive experimental investigations on various discharge systems have shown, that the self-bias on the rf driven electrode, the complex conductivity and the breakdown characteristic are preferable parameters of rf discharges. Advantageously the self-bias and the complex conductivity should be presented in dependence on the pressure and the applied rf voltage. The discharge current cannot be measured quite accurately due to currents via leaky capacitors and the deviations from a sinusoidal form of the current due to nonlinearities.
