Chemisorption of vapors of organic substances on a modified silica gel

Experimental data on the equilibrium and dynamics of chemisorption of vapors of organic substances on a silica gel modified with color reagents are presented.     

Reaction of furan-2(3H)-ones with 1,2-binucleophiles

Reactions of 5-substituted furan-2(3H)-ones with ethylenediamine, 2-aminoethanol, and o-aminophenol do not stop at the stage of formation of the corresponding 4-oxoalkanoic acid amides but lead to new bi-and tricyclic structures as a result of double intramolecular cyclodehydration.     

Quotient probabilistic normed spaces and completeness results

We introduce the concept of quotient in PN spaces and give some examples. We prove some theorems with regard to the completeness of a quotient.     

Physicochemical aspects of preservation of cellulose paper with polymers

The process of preservation of newspaper with aqueous solutions and dispersions of acrylic copolymers is considered from the instant of impregnation till removal of the polymeric preservative from paper.     

Relaxation processes in glasses of the Ge-As-S system

The internal friction in Ge _x As_{40 ? x} S₆₀ glasses is investigated in the temperature range 100 K-T _g at infralow frequencies (10^?3?10^?1 Hz). It is shown that the concentration dependence of the internal friction of these materials changes as a result of the transformation of the dominant kinetic unit in dissipative processes of the relaxation and nonrelaxation types. It is established tha the change in the mechanism of internal friction in the Ge _x As_{40 ? x} S₆₀ glasses leads to a jump in the activation energy of the α relaxation and to a local minimum in the frequency factor τ₀.
