Mössbauer study of iron reduction in hematite containing mineral originated from Aswan area in Egypt

Mössbauer spectroscopy was used to study iron reduction in mineral originated from Aswan area in Egypt. The Mössbauer spectra of samples heat treated at 1000 °C in hydrogen atmosphere show a gradually reduction process of hematite. The main phase of sample aged for 1 h is magnetite, while alpha-iron as well as some silicates and wustite type oxide can be detected in sample aged for 3 h. Further aging of sample results in dissolution of alloying elements /Si, Al/, being present in the samples. This process starts already in samples aged at 1000 °C for 4 h, but it is more expressive in minerals heat treated at 1200 °C or 1300 °C, when all paramagnetic phases disappeared.     

A study of thin surface layers by multilayer Mössbauer spectroscopy /MMS/

A stacking Mössbauer technique, MMS has been applied for studying thin surface layers. The surface layers formed on the⁵⁷Fe film in aqueous solutions of corrosion inhibitors, such as zinc phosphate and barium metaborate, and in distilled water was studied by this method. It has been found that the corrosion is much slower in the presence of zinc phosphate and barium metaborate. XPS analysis suggests the formation of a mixed iron zinc phosphate on the surface of the⁵⁷Fe film after corrosion in a zinc phosphate solution.     

Reactions de photoaddition de benzo[b]selenophenes avec l'acetylene dicarboxylate de methyle et avec le dichloro-1,2 ethylene

Photoirradiated in presence of acetophenone, benzo[b]selenophene and its 3-methyl derivative add to dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate. In each ease, the primary reaction product is unstable and has not been isolated. Photoexeited in its triplet state (the energy of which is in the neighbourhood of 69 $\text{kcal}\text{mole}$) benzo[b]selenophene and its 2- and 3-methyl, 2,3 dimethyl, 3 acetoxy and 2-methyl-3-acetoxy derivatives add to 1,2 dichloroethylene leading to cyclobutanes. Neither cyclo-addition occurs in absence of photosensitiser. Single-crystal X-ray analysis gave the structures of the two adducts of 3-acetoxybenzo[b]selenophene with trans-1,2-dichloroethylene. In both compounds the chlorine atoms are trans.

Die quantitative Bestimmung von Vanadin mittels aktivierter Katalyse

Zusammenfassung Es wurden zwei Verfahren ausgearbeitet, um Vanadin mit Hilfe von aktivierter Katalyse zu bestimmen. Die Methodik ist geeignet, kleinste Spuren von Vanadin (bis herab zu 0,0006) mit ausreichender Genauigkeit zu ermitteln. Es werden Beleganalysen mitgeteilt.
