A method is presented for the selective determination of the volatile selenium species dimethylselenide and dimethyldiselenide, using a commercially available purge-and-trap injection system coupled to capillary gas chromatography-microwave induced plasma-atomic emission spectrometry. The efficiency of the purging step was evaluated and the parameters affecting the purge and trap processes were optimized. The method was applied to the determination of volatile selenium compounds in lake water. Relative detection limits of 2ng/l for dimethylselenide and dimethyldiselenide, corresponding to an absolute detection limit of 10 pg, were achieved. 相似文献
In this paper, several methods of hydrophobization of cotton fabrics using the thio-ene click reaction were compared. Durable, superhydrophobic textiles were obtained in an easy way. Various variants of functionalized silsesquioxanes were used for the hydrophobization of fabrics. The synthesis of bifunctional silsesquioxanes (RSiMe2O)4(ViSiMe2O)4Si8O12 and (RSiMe2O)4(R’SiMe2O)4Si8O12 were performed via hydrothiolation of silsesquioxane derivative (ViSiMe2O)8Si8O12. Alkoxysilyl, alkyl and fluoroalkyl moieties were introduced as functional groups. Samples were prepared using four methods, differing in the modification method and the number of stages. During the research, fabrics were modified via (a) the dip-coating process, (b) carrying out thiol-ene click reactions directly on the surface of the fabric and (c) using both of these methods. The hydrophobicity of the fabric was evaluated by measuring the Water contact angle (WCA). The obtained samples were also examined using infrared analysis (FT-IR), Scanning electron microscope (SEM), and Elemental analysis (SEM–EDS). All analyses were performed before and after the washing process in order to verify the stability of the performed modifications.
The present paper reports on exfoliated graphite (EG) used for the cyclic electrochemical process of phenol oxidation in alkaline solution. It is shown that the electrochemical activity of anode-produced EG decreases considerably in the second cycle due to the deposition of an oligomer film, composed of the products of phenol oxidation, on the EG surface. Thermal treatment of the inactive graphite anode in air at 500 °C provided a regenerated material of activity three times higher for the first cycle and 2.6 times higher for three cycles as compared to the original anode. The reason for such a behavior is assigned to a carbon film formed on the EG surface during the carbonization/oxidation processes involving the products of phenol oxidation. Comparative studies showed that electroactivity of the original EG can also be enhanced if before the process of phenol oxidation the original EG is activated by heat treatment. Unfortunately, the electrochemical activity of the product of such a treatment is higher only for the first cycle of phenol oxidation and drops dramatically in the following cycles.Contribution to the 3rd Baltic Conference on Electrochemistry, Gdask-Sobieszewo, 23–26 April 2003.

Summary A new porous polyaromatic ester packing was synthetized for high performance liquid chromatography. The relationship between retention and chain length of the members of homologous series of alkylbenzenes, N-alkylanilines, alkylarylethers, alkylbenzoates and alkylarylketones on this new stationary phase using different eluents was investigated. Using the alkylarylketone scale the retention indices of the homologues and test compounds were calculated. The results were compared with those obtained for poly (styrene-divinylbenzene) polymers. For both types of packing the first members of each homologous series gave non-linear behaviour. The methylene group index increments are different for the studied homologous series; thus there is no simple additivity of the retention indices. The efficiency of the porous polymeric columns is a function of the capacity factor of the solute and the organic component of the eluent. 相似文献
A sol–gel method for the synthesis of nanosized powders of yttrium disilicate doped with Tb3 + is presented. The influence of grain size and annealing temperature on the structure and luminescence properties of the materials obtained has been investigated. The preparation of glass-ceramic composite has been also described. The effect of incorporating the nanocrystals into sol–gel silica glasses on their physicochemical properties has been shown and discussed. A lack of influence of the annealing above 1300°C on the lifetimes measured for the nanocrystals embedded in the glass, as compared to the Y2Si2O7:Tb3 + powders, has been observed. 相似文献
By reacting poly(methacryloyl chloride) (PMKC) with allyl amine, a multiallyl monomer in PMKC matrix has been obtained. Free-radical polymerization of multiallyl monomer in diluted solutions at a concentration of 12 g/L multiallyl monomer occurs partly along ordered allyl units in the matrix and results in ladder-type branched polymers. The polymers obtained are soluble in alcohols, DMF, DMSO and have unreacted allyl double bonds. The structures of multiallyl monomer and homopolymer have been found on the basis of elemental analysis, IR and 1H-NMR spectra and an examination of the products of hydrolysis. The effect of the reaction of degradative chain transfer on the structure of the polymer obtained has been discussed. 相似文献
Lipophilic neutral carriers were synthesized which show Li+/Na+ selectivities of up to ca. 80 in highly lipophilic liquid membranes. The sensor membranes exhibit improved response times and increased lifetimes as compared to systems described earlier. They allow reliable measurements of Li+ in blood serum within the clinical concentration range. A 1:1 Li+/ionophore complex of one representative (N,N,N′,N′-tetracyclohexyl-5,5-dimethyl-3,7-dioxaazelaamide) has been prepared, and its structure was elucidated by X-ray analysis. 相似文献
