Electrical conductivity of liquid and film polymer composites filled with anion-radical salts in the presence of crown ethers

In the example of alkali metal tetracyanoquinodimethanides (M⁺TCQDM), a study has been made of the influence of resonance charge exchange on the conductivity () of polymer composites filled with anion-radical salts. When neutral molecules TCQDM⁰ are introduced into such systems, this leads to an increase in as a result of the lower activation energy of jumps between states TCQDM and TCQDM⁰. The addition of molecules of crown ethers has an analogous effect: They favor the appearance in the polymer matrix (the same as in solution) of TCQDM molecules in different charge states (TCQDM⁰, TCQDM) with migration of the cation within the limits of ternary associates (CE...M⁺...A) that are formed in systems for which the ratio of the crown ether cavity diameter to the cation diameter 1.4. Symbaticity has been found in the dependences of the electrical conductivity of films and the limiting mobility of solutions with the same composition on the parameter .Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Éksperimental'naya Khimiya, Vol. 25, No. 4, pp. 446–452, July–August, 1989.     

Initiation of polymerization of alkyl 2-cyanoacrylates in aqueous solutions of glycine and its derivatives

The polymerization of methyl 2-cyanoacrylate and heptyl 2-cyanoacrylate was carried out with the use of aqueous solutions of ¹⁴C-tagged glycine, methyl glycine, and acetyl glycine as initiators. When glycine and methyl glycine were used, radioactive polymers were formed. When acetyl glycine was used, the polymer formed was not radioactive. The data seem to indicate that free NH₂ groups appear to be necessary for the incorporation of the glycine initiator in the polymer. A possible mechanism for the polymerization is presented.     

Molecular spectra and molecular structure of heterocyclic compounds. Infrared and near ultraviolet absorption spectra of pyridine N-oxide derivatives

The infrared and ultraviolet spectra of many pyridine N-oxide derivatives have been studied. Ultraviolet spectra show a strong solvent effect in going from aprotic to hydroxylic solvents due to strong hydrogen bonding. Values of δ H° for several systems CH₃OH/XPyNO in tetra-chloroethylene solution were evaluated by infrared techniques and a linear correlation δ H° vs. δ v OH has been found. Features of the infrared and ultraviolet characteristic absorption bands were also investigated.     

Spot tests for calcium sulphate, lead sulphate, silver, thallium, and formaldehyde based on reactions with selenosulphate

Summary Spot tests have been described for calcium sulphate, lead sulphate, silver, thallium and formaldehyde based on the reaction with selenosulphate. In these reactions either red elemental selenium (CaSO₄, CH₂O) or black metal selenide (PbSO₄ Tl, Ag) is formed. The limits of identification are: 0.2 mg of PbS04 or CaSO₄, 2 g of Ag, 10 g of Tl, 0.2 g of CH₂O.

Sorption of Uranium from Sulfuric Acid Leaching Solutions by Strongly Basic Anion Exchangers

The equilibrium and kinetic characteristics of uranium sorption from simulated sulfuric acid leaching solutions by AMP, Lewatit K 6367, Purolite A 500, Purolite A 600, and AM-p gel-like and porous strongly basic anion exchangers were studied.__________Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Khimii, Vol. 78, No. 5, 2005, pp. 736–740.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Kolomiets, Troshkina, Sheremet’ev, Konopleva.     

Separation of strontium from simulated waste in K2SO4/Nitrate medium containing Sr2+, Eu3+, Ce3+, Pd2+, Rh3+, Ru3+, UO 2 2+ , Fe3+, Cr3+, Ni2+, Al3+, Ca2+ and Cs+, by strongly basic anion exchanger

In this work Strontium was separated selectively form, Pd²⁺, Ni²⁺ and Ca³⁺ using anionic resins of Amberlite type IRA-900 and IRA-410 from nitrate medium. The Separation of strontium by strongly basic anion exchangers IRA-410 and IRA-900 from simulated waste containing, Sr²⁺, Eu³⁺, Ce³⁺, Pd²⁺, Rh³⁺, Ru³⁺, VO₂ ²⁺, Fe³⁺, Cr³⁺, Ni²⁺, Al³⁺, Ca²⁺, and Cs⁺, in K₂SO₄/nitrate medium which adsorbed as strontium sulphate complex was achieved through ligand- ligan exchange. The elution of strontium carried out via “loading” the column with a solution of 0.03N EDTA in presence of 0.1N NaNO₃ at pH7 where Sr²⁺ has low K_d value. An inductively Coubled Plasma — Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP — OES) of ARL type model 3520, was used for elemental analysis.     

Membrane extraction of pertechnetate with quaternary ammonium salts comparison with solvent extraction

The liquid membrane extraction (MX) and the solvent extraction (SX) of pertechnetate with Aliquat 336 as a carrier has been studied. From the results of SX the percentage of pertechnetate in the inner solution in experiment with LM was proposed. It has been found that the pertraction of pertechnetate depends on the inner solution used and the most effective solutions were those with ClO ₄ ^– and SCN^–. Effects of the carrier concentration in membranes and outer phase composition have been studied too. The results of these experiments were kinetic curves with a minimum, which may be interpreted as a result of competing processes in the systems.
