Interfacial transfer of Cd2+ assisted by 4′ — morpholino-acetophenone-4-phenyl-3-thiosemicarbazone across the water/1,2-dichloroethane interface

The assisted transfer of heavy metal ions by interfacial complexation with 4′-morpholinoacetophenone-4-phenyl-3-thiosemicarbazone (MAPPT) at the interface between two immiscible electrolyte solutions (ITIES) was studied by cyclic voltammetry. The voltammograms obtained across the water/1,2-dichloroethane interface using the MAPPT ligand in the organic phase shows that the assisted metal ion transfers have different nature for different ions. The quasi-reversible voltammetric peak of the Cd²⁺ ion was obtained and is discussed in detail. The dependence of the half-wave transfer potential on MAPPT concentration showed that the equilibrium is effectively displaced towards a 1:3 (metal:ligand) stoichiometry with an association constant of log β ^o =15.46 (±0.11) for the Cd²⁺ ion, corresponding to the TIC/TID mechanism.      

Co2+与BPPT络合反应动力学及动力学光谱法测定钴

Thiosemicarbazones and phenylthiosemicarbazones are in- teresting ligands because of their ability to form highly stable and intensely colored complexes, which is attributed to the for- mation of bond between sulfur and hydrazino nitrogen atoms, and these…     

Darstellung und strukturen diorganylsubstituierter Silicium-Germanium-Sauerstoff-achtringe

Diphenylgermanium diphenylsilicon oxide and dimethylgermanium diphenylsilicon oxide [(R₂Ge)O(Ph₂Si)O]₂ (R = Ph, Me) have been synthesized by treatment of diorganogermanium dihalides with diphenyldihydroxysilane. The X-ray analysis showed nonplanar eight-membered silicon-germanium-oxygen rings which are more puckered than those of cyclotetrasiloxanes. In the compound with R = phenyl the silicon and germanium atoms are disordered.     

Surface description of gauge theories

The partition function of non-abelian gauge theory is expressed, in the continuum limit, as a sum over surfaces which are swept out by the propagation of electric flux rings. Each flux surface is described by a two-dimensional continuum gauge theory, confined to that particular surface. The gauge field can then be integrated out; however, for closed and intersecting surfaces interesting complications arise, which reveal an algebraic structure typical of strong-coupling lattice gauge theory.     

The rectifying developable and the tangent indicatrix of a curve in Galilean 3-space

We study the singularities of Galilean distance and Galilean height functions intrinsically related to Frenet frame along a curve embedded into Galilean space. We establish the relationships between singularities of the functions and geometric invariants under the action of Galilean group of curves which are deeply related to the order of contact with Galilean helices.     

Call center service process analysis: Bayesian parametric and semi-parametric mixture modeling

The main focus of the call center research has been on models that assume all input distributions are known in queuing theory which gives birth to staffing and the estimation of operating characteristics. Studies investigating uncertainty of the input distributions and its implications on call center management are scarce. This study attempts to fill this gap by analyzing the call center service distribution behavior by using Bayesian parametric and semi-parametric mixture models that are capable of exhibiting non-standard behavior such as multi-modality, skewness and excess kurtosis motivated by real call center data. The study is motivated by the observation that different customer profiles might require different agent skill sets which can create additional sources of uncertainty in the behavior of service distributions. In estimating model parameters, Markov chain Monte Carlo methods such as the Gibbs sampler and the reversible jump algorithms are presented and the implications of using such models on system performance and staffing are discussed.     

Intrinsic equations for a generalized relaxed elastic line on an oriented surface in the galilean space

In this article, we derive the intrinsic equations for a generalized relaxed elastic line on an oriented surface in the Galilean 3-dimensional space G₃. These equations will give direct and more geometric approach to questions concerning about generalized relaxed elastic lines on an oriented surface in G₃.
