Phase separation of quaternary solubilized solutions or micro emulsion of hydrocarbons containing sodium oleate + phenol + benzene + water by freezing point measurements

Summary The depressions in freezing point measurements in quaternary solubilized solutions or micro-emulsion in sodium oleate + phenol + benzene + water are measured. Maxima and minima were observed, Gibbs' phase rule was applicable, eutectic points were detected, congruent melting points were obtained, loose combination of molecules or clusters, were formed, phases of the system transferred and finally unstable emulsion separated out. This is contrary to the views ofMcBain who called these solutions as thermodynamically stable. The results were compared with the conductivity, stability and heat of solubilization-concentration measurements.

Zusammenfassung Es wird die Gefrierpunktserniedrigung von quaternären solubilisierten Lösungen im System Natriumoleat-Phenol-Benzol-Wasser gemessen. Die verschiedenen Befunde (Maxima und Minima des Gefrierpunktes in Abhängigkeit von der Zusammensetzung, Anwendbarkeit der Gibbs'schen Phasenregel, Auftreten von Eutektika, kongruente Schmelzpunkte etc.) dienen zum Beweis, daß diese Lösungen thermodynamisch instabil sind.

Folded chain crystals as micro-phases

Summary A thermodynamic treatment of homo-polymer systems out of linear chains with folded chain crystals is developed outgoing from appropriate models for single component systems. An expansion of thermodynamics to multi-micro-phase systems the structure of which is partially or totaly frozen is indispensable. General properties of melt crystallized homopolymers with folded chain crystals can be recognized indeed when the thermodynamic formalisms developed are applied.

Zusammenfassung Das Schmelzen in polymeren Einteilchensystemen mit Faltungskristallen einheitlicher Dicke kann thermodynamisch als Umwandlung 1. Ordnung in einer Richtung behandelt werden, wenn die Faltungslänge bis zur Umwandlungstemperatur konstant bleibt (Faltungslänge als innerer Zusatzparameter). Eine wesentliche begriffliche Erweiterung ist für eine phänomenologische Beschreibung mit den Mitteln der Thermodynamik unumgänglich, wenn eine Faltungskristallit-Dickenverteilung existiert, weil dann prinzipiell nur noch partielle Koexistenz bestimmter Fraktionen metastabiler autonomer Mikrophasen mit der Schmelze möglich ist. Partielles Aufschmelzen und Rektistallisation können so dann auch in Betracht genommen werden. Die entwickelten Konzeptionen bewähren sich in der Anwendung auf bekannte Experimente.

Über 1-Alkyl-bzw. 1-Aryl-dihydro-6-methyl-2(1H)-pyrimidinthione

The title compounds7 are formed in a general reaction by heating β-isothiocyanoketones3 with primary amines in inert solvents, or by thermal elimination of water from tetrahydro-6-hydroxy-6-methyl-2(1H)-pyrimidinethiones5, also in inert solvents. The 1-alkyl compounds can also be prepared under similar conditions from α,β-unsaturated ketones by reaction with alkylammonium rhodanides. The NMR-spectra show that the 1-substituted dihydro-6-methyl-2(1H)-pyrimidinethiones are in tautomeric equilibrium with the tetrahydro-6-methylene-2(1H)-pyrimidinethiones13. The reactivity of 1-alkyl and 1-aryldihydro-6-methyl-2(1H)-pyrimidinethiones is similar to that of dihydro-4,4,6-trimethyl-2(1H)-pyrimidinethione7 j, although their ring stability is certainly less.     

Beiträge zur Chemie des Sulfamids, 1. Mitt.: Zur Konstitution des Disilber-sulfamids

According to spectroscopic (IR, broadline proton NMR) and chemical (alkylation) investigations of disilver sulphamide the following molecular structure is assumed: $$\begin{gathered} O \hfill \\ || \hfill \\ H_2 N\_\_S\_\_NAg| \hfill \\ OAg \hfill \\ \end{gathered}$$ From the IR and NMR data deduction concerning the nature of the chemical bonds in this compound is possible. The instability of the still unknown mono-and trisilver sulphamide is discussed with regard to the structure of disilver sulphamide.     

The two-phase structure of segmented block copoly(ether ester)

The annealing induced morphological changes in isotropic block copoly(etherester)s are investigated by small angle X-ray scattering methods. The observed results are consistent with a lamellar model which is comprised of a crystalline core of thickness 35 to 45 Å, a diffuse boundary zone of width 9 Å, and an amorphous layer which is varying strongly in thickness. The enhanced crystallinity of the samples annealed at higher temperatures is mainly due the lateral growth of the lamellae; the long period increases by not more than 20%. The scattering power of the samples is explained by means of an equivalent two-phase model in which the crystalline phase has the same structure as theα-form of poly(butylene terephthalate), whereas the amorphous phase is a mixture of the uncrystallized ester segments and the ether segments. The crystallinity determined from the scattering power is very much higher than that determined from thermoanalytical investigations.

Ru₂Si₃ is isostructural with Ru₂Ge₃ and like this compound a member of the Mn₁₁Si₁₉ structure family. The lattice parameters of the orthorhombic unit cell (Pnca—D ₁₄ ^2h ) are:a=5.530 (1),b=11.060 (2) andc=8.952 (2) Å.

Beiträge zur chemie der Pyrrolpigmente, 10. Mitt.: Elektronenspektrometrische Untersuchungen über die Struktur von Quadratsäurederivaten

The structure of squaric acid derivatives was investigated on the basis of the PPP—SCF—LCAO—MO—CI method utilizing the π-electron densities and bond orders. The parameters used in the calculations were modified to fit the experimental data for representative compounds. The data were obtained by X-ray photoelectron spectrometry and electron absorption spectroscopy (including the polarization of the bands as determined by liquid crystal induced circular dichroism measurements).     

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.
