Thermische Polymerisation von Acenaphthylen

Zusammenfassung Acenaphthylen wurde durch Anpolymerisation und zweifache Hochvakuumsublimation gereinigt. Die Reinigungsmethode wird ausführlich beschrieben.Bei verschiedenen Temperaturen wurde mit einer dilatometrischen Methode die thermische Bruttogeschwindigkeit gemessen. Zwischen 95 und 105 °C giltk _br=7,0₈·10¹⁰ exp (– 30,9 kcal/RT).Die beträchtliche Aktivierungsenergie der Bruttoreaktion ist sowohl auf eine große Aktivierungsenergie der thermischen Startreaktion als auch auf eine relativ hohe Wachstumsaktivierungsenergie zurückzuführen.Das Polymerisationsverhalten von Acenaphthylen kann vermutlich aufgrund seiner sterischen Eigenschaften erklärt werden.

Summary Acenaphthylene was purified by partial polymerisation, followed by double stage high vacuum sublimation. The method of purification is described in detail.The thermal overall rate was measured at different temperatures by a dilatometric method. Between 95 and 105 °C the following relation holds:k _th=7,0₈ · 10¹⁰ exp (– 30,9 kcal/RT).The considerable energy of activation of the overall reaction depends on a relatively high energy of activation of both the thermal initiation and the propagation reaction.It is supposed, that the polymerisation behaviour of acenaphthylene depends mainly on its steric properties.

     

Improved flask-combustion method for phosphorus in petroleum products

Summary An electrical assembly for the oxygen-flask combustion of lubricants and similar petroleum products is described. The pyrolysis is performed in two consecutive steps. After the ignition and burning of the sample (sorbed on sodium carbonate) the combustion is completed by further heating. The sample weight should not exceed 140 mg. In this way the sensitivity of phosphorus determination of the tentative IP standard procedure is enhanced from 0.01 to 0.001% phosphorus if the volume of solution for the final spectrophotometric measurement is reduced.

Zusammenfassung Ein elektrisches Gerät für die Verbrennung von Schmierölen und ähnlichen Erdölprodukten im Schöniger-Kolben wurde beschrieben. Die Pyrolyse erfolgt in zwei aufeinander folgenden Schritten. Nach der Entflammung der an Natriumcarbonat adsorbierten Probe und nach Erlöschen der Flamme erfolgt die vollständige Verbrennung von Einwaagen, die 140 mg nicht überschreiten. So konnte die Empfindlichkeit der Phosphorbestimmung nach der tentativen IP-Standardmethode von 0,01% auf 0,001% Phosphor gesteigert werden, wenn man die spektrophotometrische Messung mit vermindertem Lösungsvolumen durchführt.

Das Schwingungsspektrum von Magnesium-orthovanadat

The infrared and laser-Raman spectra of crystalline Mg₃(VO₄)₂ are reported and a factor group analysis for the full lattice is presented to support the discussion. The 1,000 to 600 cm^?1 region of the spectrum is essentially related to internal (stretching) modes of the greatly distorted VO₄ tetrahedra, whereas the bands in the low frequency region must be assigned to complex vibrations originating in the interaction of the bending vibrations of the tetrahedral groups with the external modes.     

TiO2 sol-gel derived amperometric biosensor for H2O2 on the electropolymerized phenazine methosulfate modified electrode

A novel hydrogen peroxide biosensor was developed based on the immobilization of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) in a TiO(2) sol-gel matrix on an electropolymerized phenazine methosulfate (PMS) modified electrode surface. Such membranes are of interest due to their high surface area, biological compatibility, and ease of fabrication. HRP entrapped in the TiO(2) matix was stable and retained its activity to a large extent. Cyclic voltammetry and amperometric measurements were employed to demonstrate the feasibility of electron transfer between immobilized HRP and the glassy carbon electrode via electropolymerized PMS. The influence of various experimental parameters such as operating potential, pH, temperature, and stability was investigated for optimum analytical performance. The biosensor provided a wide linear calibration range from 4.0x10(-6) M to 1.0x10(-3) M, with a detection limit of 8.0x10(-7) M at a signal-to-noise ratio of 3. The sensor retained 80% of its original activity after two months of operation.     

Simple interface for capillary electrophoresis-inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry

A simple interface has been developed to couple capillary electrophoresis (CE) to inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) for metal speciation. A concentric glass nebulizer with elongated tip is used as the CE-ICP interface. The CE capillary is the central tube of the nebulizer. A platinum wire is wrapped across the exit end of the CE capillary to provide electrical connection to the CE power supply. No sheath flow of buffer solution is needed. A simple cooling system has also been developed. A peristaltic pump circulates water through a plastic tube that encloses the section of the CE capillary between the CE instrument and the ICP spectrometer. Characteristics of the CE-ICP interface, e.g., elution time, nebulization and transport efficiency and peak broadening, versus carrier gas flow-rate have been studied. Comparisons to a previous design with the Pt electrode inserted into the end of the CE capillary are made where appropriate. The reproducibility (RSD) in ICP emission intensity of the system is <4%. Detection limits of Cr and Cu are approximately 5 ng/ml.     

Das dielektrische Verhalten von Polyäthern zwischen Mikrowellen- und Infrarot-Gebiet

Zusammenfassung Es wurde die Absorption und Dispersion verschiedener Polyäther im Mikrowellengebiet und im fernen IR untersucht. Mit wachsender Sauerstoffzahl in der Kette werden die Torsions- und Biegeschwingungen wachsend IR-aktiv. Ihre Frequenzlagen ändern sich mit dem zunehmend polaren Charakter der Struktur. Die Analogie zwischen der Verschiebung der Schwingungsfrequenzen und dem Verlauf der Schmelztemperaturen wird diskutiert.Mit zunehmend polarem Charakter steigen der Temperaturkoeffizient der Molpolarisation und die Differenz (–n ²) der Dielektrizitätskonstanten im Mikrowellengebiet und im optischen Bereich stark an. Ein Vergleich mit der Höhe der Dispersionsstufen im fernen IR und deren Temperaturabhängigkeit ergab, daß diese zusätzliche Polarisation nicht allein durch die IR-aktiven Banden bedingt ist. Sie muß gekoppelt sein mit dem ebenfalls stark anwachsenden Untergrundverlust im gesamten mm- und sub-mm-Gebiet.

Summary Absorption and dispersion of several polyethers were measured in the microwave region and in the far infrared. The torsional vibrations become increasingly iractive with increasing number of oxygens in the chain. Their frequencies shift, too, in a manner analogues to the variation of the melting temperatures.The temperature coefficient of the mol polarization at 32 GHz and the difference (–n ²) between microwave and optical dielectric constant rise rapidly with increasing polar character of the structure. It was tried to correlate (–n ²) with the overall absorption of the skeletal vibrations. Height and temperature dependence of the far ir dispersion show, however, that the larger part of this additional polarization cannot be accounted for by the resonance absorption bands. It must be correlated with the background loss which extends over the whole mm and sub-mm range and also increases rapidly with increasingly polar structure.
