Scale-up synthesis of zinc borate from the reaction of zinc oxide and boric acid in aqueous medium

Synthesis of zinc borate was conducted in a laboratory and a pilot scale batch reactor to see the influence of process variables on the reaction parameters and the final product, 2ZnO·3B₂O₃·3.5H₂O. Effects of stirring speed, presence of baffles, amount of seed, particle size and purity of zinc oxide, and mole ratio of H₃BO₃:ZnO on the zinc borate formation reaction were examined at a constant temperature of 85 °C in a laboratory (4 L) and a pilot scale (85 L) reactor. Products obtained from the reaction in both reactors were characterized by chemical analysis, X-ray diffraction, particle size distribution analysis, thermal gravimetric analysis and scanning electron microscopy. The kinetic data for the zinc borate production reaction was fit by using the logistic model. The results revealed that the specific reaction rate, a model parameter, decreases with increase in particle size of zinc oxide and the presence of baffles, but increases with increase in stirring speed and purity of zinc oxide; however, it is unaffected with the changes in the amount of seed and reactants ratio. The reaction completion time is unaffected by scaling-up.     

Determining the Zn Content of Cherry in Field Using VNIR Spectroscopy

Visible and near-infrared(VNIR)spectroscopy is an eco-friendly method used for estimating plant nutrient deficiencies.The aim of this study was to investigate the possibility of using VNIR method for estimating Zn content in cherry orchard leaves under field conditions.The study was conducted in 3different locations in Isparta region of Turkey.Fifteen cherry orchards containing normal and Zn deficient plants were chosen,and 60 leaf samples were collected from each location.The reflectance spectra of the leaves were measured with an ASD FieldSpec HandHeld spectroradiometer and a plant probe.The Zn contents of leaf samples were predicted through laboratory analysis.The spectral reflectance measurements were used to estimate the Zn levels using stepwise multiple linear regression analysis method.Prediction models were created using the highest coefficient of determination value.The results show that Zn content of cherry trees can be estimated using the VNIR spectroscopic method(87.5相似文献   

Dipolar cycloadditions of imidazoline 3-oxides with N-arylmaleimides. Synthesis and diethylamine induced ring-opening of exo and endo hexahydro-7-oxa-2,5,6a-triaza-cyclopenta[a]pentalene-1,3-diones

1,4-Diarylimidazoline 3-oxides react with N-arylmaleimides in benzene to give predominantly the corresponding endo adducts. Chiral imidazoline 3-oxides react diastereospecifically (cis configuration of the tetrahydroimidazo ring) and diastereoselectively to give cis-endo adducts. The effects of substituents on the aromatic ring of the maleimide was investigated. The presence of electron-withdrawing or releasing groups have minor effect on the total yields but more pronounced is the effect on the ratio of exo and endo diastereomers. The adducts undergo an interesting and unprecedented ring-opening in the presence of secondary amines to give deoxygenated 3-imidazoline 3-oxides instead of the expected double cis elimination products. Tertiary amines did not induce any reaction.     

Thiophenol derivatives as a reducing agent for in situ generation of Cu(I) species via electron transfer reaction in copper‐catalyzed living/controlled radical polymerization of styrene

The copper‐catalyzed living radical polymerization (LRP) of styrene (St) was carried out in the presence of thiophenol derivative such as sodium thiophenolate (PhSNa) or p‐methoxythiophenol as a reducing agent for Cu(II) by using either 1‐chloro‐1‐phenyl ethane or ethyl‐2‐bromoisobutyrate as an initiator and N,N,N′,N″,N″‐pentamethyldiethylenetriamine as ligand at 110 °C. Kinetic experiments were carried out to reveal the effect of PhSNa concentration on copper‐catalyzed LRP of St. This technique was successfully applied for the preparation of both chain‐extended polymer and block copolymer polystyrene‐b‐poly(methyl methacrylate). The obtained polymers were characterized using GPC, ¹H‐NMR, and MALDI‐TOF measurements. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 44: 5923–5932, 2006     

Some new oscillation results for a nonlinear dynamic system on time scales

We study the oscillation of a system of two first order nonlinear equations on time scales. This form includes the classical Emden-Fowler differential equation and many of its extensions. We generalize some well-known results of Atkinson, Bohner, Erbe, Peterson and others. We illustrate the results by several examples, including a superlinear Emden-Fowler dynamic system.     

A Novel and Selective Methylene Blue Imprinted Polymer Modified Carbon Paste Electrode

In this study, methylene blue (MB) imprinted microbeads were synthesized and characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM).Differential pulse voltammetric responses of carbon paste electrodes modified with MB imprinted polymer were used to evaluate the adsorption and selectivity features of the polymer. For selectivity studies two basic dyestuffs (thionine blue and toluidine blue) which have similar structure to MB were chosen. Comparison of the voltammetric responses obtained with pure carbon paste and carbon paste modified with either imprinted or nonimprinted polymer electrodes revealed that MB imprinted polymer presented a higher selectivity to the template molecule MB in contrast to structurally similar molecules, thionine blue and toluidine blue.     

Determination of Cu(II), Fe(III), Mn(II) and Zn(II) in various samples after preconcentration with Rhizopus oryzae loaded natural cellulose (almond bark)

A procedure for the pre-concentration of Cu(II), Fe(III), Mn(II) and Zn(II) is described utilising a minicolumn of natural cellulose (almond bark) modified with fungus (Rhizopus oryzae) prior to their determination by high-resolution continuum source flame atomic absorption spectrometry (HR-CS FAAS). The optimum pre-concentration conditions such as pH and flow rate for the analytes have been investigated. The analytes were quantitatively retained on the column between pH 6 and 8. Elution was made with 10 mL 1 M HCl solution. Under the optimum conditions, recoveries were found as 97 ± 3%, 96 ± 3%, 98 ± 3% and 94 ± 2% for Cu(II), Fe(III), Mn(II) and Zn(II), respectively, at 95% confidence level. The detection limits obtained from preconcentration of 50 mL of blank solutions (n = 11) were 1.6, 1.8, 2.8 and 1.2 µg L^?1 for Cu(II), Fe(III), Mn(II) and Zn(II), respectively. Relative standard deviations (RSD) of the recoveries for five replicate analyses were lower than 3%. The proposed method was validated by analysing certified reference materials (Peach Leaves SRM 1547 and Fish Tissue IAEA-407). Determination of the Cu(II), Fe(III), Mn(II) and Zn(II) in K?z?l?rmak River water, green beans, beans leave and tomato leaves and fish (Tinca tinca) tissue samples was performed by the proposed method.
