Volumetric properties of the water + ethylenediamine mixture at atmospheric pressure from 288.15 to 353.15 K

Densities of the water + ethylenediamine binary system were measured at atmospheric pressure over the whole range of compositions at temperatures from 288.15 to 353.15 K using an Anton Paar digital vibrating glass tube densimeter. Density increases with water content. The experimental excess molar volume data have been correlated with the Redlich-Kister equation, and partial molar volumes calculated at infinite dilution for each component.     

Thermodynamics of liquid mixtures containing n-alkanes and strongly polar components: VE and C P E of mixtures with either pyridine or piperidine

Excess molar volumes V _E and excess molar heat capacities C _P ^/E at constant pressure have been obtained, as a function of mole fraction x₁, for several binary liquid mixtures belonging either to series I: pyridine+n-alkane (C_lH_2l+2), with l=7, 10, 14, 16, or series II: piperidine+n-alkane, with l=7, 8, 10, 12, 14. The instruments used were a vibrating-tube densimeter and a Picker flow microcalorimeter, respectively. V ^E of pyridine+n-heptane shows a S-shaped composition dependence with a small negative part in the region rich in pyridine (x₁>0.90). All the other systems show positive V ^E only. The excess volumes increase with increasing chain length l of the n-alkane. The excess molar heat capacities of the mixtures belonging to series II are all negative, except for a small positive part for piperidine+n-heptane in the region rich in piperidine (x₁>0.87). The C _P ^/E at the respective minima, C _P ^/E (x_1,min ), become more negative with increasing l, and the x_1,min values range from about 0.26 (l=7) to 0.39 (l=14). Most interestingly, mixtures of series I exhibit curves of C _P ^/E against x₁ with two minima and one maximum, the so-called W-shape curves.Dedicated to Professor A.

Apparent molal volumes of aqueous solutions of bis-tetraalkylammonium salts at 25°C: Methylene-group contribution to the limiting molal volume

Densities of aqueous solutions of a series of polymethonium chloride and bromide salts (CH₃)₃–N–(CH₂)_n–N–(CH₃)₃X₂ have been measured at 25°C. Apparent molal volumes have been calculated, and methylene-group contributions to the limiting apparent molal volumes °_v have been estimated. Constant values of the methylene-group contribution of 16.5 and 17.0 cm³-mole^–1 were obtained for the bromide and chloride salts, respectively. These values are consistent with methylene-group contributions reported for other series of organic electrolytes.     

Determination of lithium in pharmaceutical formulations used in the treatment of bipolar disorder by flow injection analysis with spectrophotometric detection

In this work, a flow injection system with spectrophotometric detection was developed for the determination of lithium in pharmaceutical formulations used in the treatment of bipolar disorder. Reaction between Quinizarine (1,4-dihydroxyanthraquinone) and Li(I) ion in alkaline medium containing dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) was explored for this purpose. The flow system was optimized regarding to its chemical (DMSO, Quinizarine and NaOH concentrations and sample pH) and physical parameters (sample loop volume, carrier flow rate and reactor length) in order to establish better conditions in terms of sensitivity and sampling frequency. The results obtained showed that the concentration of DMSO in the reagent solution presents remarkable influence on the magnitude of analytical signal. Chemical species that could be found in the formulations such as Na(I), K(I), Mg(II), Ca(II), Ti(IV), Cl⁻, CO₃²⁻ e sodium dodecylsulfate were tested as possible interfering ions. Among them, only non-monovalent cations presented noticeable interference on lithium signal. However, they were not found in concentrations high enough to cause interference in the determination of lithium in the samples. Sample preparation was performed by sonicating a slurry prepared by dispersing 100 mg of powdered sample in 15 mL of 0.10 mol L⁻¹ HCl solution. Results obtained by developed methodology were not statistically different from those obtained by flame emission spectrometry. In the optimized conditions the method presented a linear range of 5-40 mg L⁻¹ and a relative standard deviation of 3.6% at 5 mg L⁻¹ Li concentration. Detection and quantification limits were 0.54 and 1.8 mg L⁻¹, respectively. Sampling frequency, calculated as the time interval passed between two consecutive injections, was 60 samples per hour. The methodology was successfully applied in the determination of lithium in three commercial samples.     

Sequential injection analysis for benzophenone-4 and phenylbenzimidazole sulphonic acid in sunscreen sprays by solid-phase extraction coupled with ultraviolet spectrometry

A sequential injection UV method was developed to determine benzophenone-4 (BZ4) and phenylbenzimidazole sulphonic acid (PBS) simultaneously, these being the most commonly used UV-filters in aqueous formulations used as sunscreen sprays. The selective elution of both was performed by on-line solid-phase extraction, by retention on a SAX microcolumn and separation by varying the pH of elution. The sensitivity obtained was 0.042±0.001 ml μg⁻¹ for PBS and 0.0159±0.0003 ml μg⁻¹ for BZ4. The limit of detection was 1.6 μg ml⁻¹ for PBS and 0.6 μg ml⁻¹ for BZ4. The R.S.D. of the results was 1-6% for PBS and 1-12% for BZ4. The method was validated using commercial sunscreen formulations with concentrations determined by a liquid chromatographic procedure. The two procedures gave comparable results. Automation of the method means the amount of reagents used and residues generated are decreased. The system allows the required analysis sequence to be programmed using suitable software.     

Effect of Neck Formation on the Measurement of Dynamic Interfacial Tension in a Drop Volume Tensiometer

Dynamic interfacial tension values obtained by drop volume tensiometry will be affected under certain experimental conditions by the formation of a neck between the drop and the capillary tip. This phenomenon must be accounted for to obtain accurate values of interfacial tension. In this work, neck formation for a water–mineral oil system is studied under conditions where hydrodynamic effects can be neglected. A model originally developed for the determination of the surface tension of a suspended drop is modified for application to dynamic interfacial tensions of surfactant-containing liquids. The model relates apparent values of interfacial tension calculated from drops possessing necks to actual values. Experiments with Span 80 (sorbitan monooleate) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) surfactants in a mineral oil–water system are used to test the validity of the developed model. For the small tip diameter used, good agreement is obtained for Span 80 up to the critical micelle concentration, and for low concentrations of SDS, when the surfactant adsorption is diffusion-limited. In both cases, the neck diameter of the growing drop can be considered constant over the range of dynamic interfacial tensions tested.

地质样品中的铌、钽、锂、铍、铷、钨元素含量相差大,且同一样品中各元素含量差异也较大。如在原矿中的含量只有几十至几百μg/g,而在精矿中的含量则达到了百分之几至百分之几十,高含量样品中的铌钽元素在强酸性溶液中不稳定,极易水解,准确测定这些元素需要多种方法,分析过程繁琐。传统的分析方法过程复杂、难以实现同时测定多种元素。通过考察分解体系酸的用量选择、提取剂的选择、提取剂用量的选择、测定内标元素的选择,建立了混酸分解-电感耦合等离子体质谱法同时测定地质样品中铌、钽、锂、铍、铷、钨元素的测定方法。本文采用氢氟酸-硝酸-盐酸-高氯酸-硫酸分解样品,用3～4滴氢氟酸+ 5 %硫酸+ 5 %过氧化氢萃取体系代替常规有机酸(酒石酸等。)萃取体系。采用ICP -MS同时测定各含量段地质中铌、钽、锂、铍、铷、钨的不同含量。采用该方法测定国家一级标准物质 GBW07155、GBW07153 、GBW07185,结果表明,各元素的检测结果与认定值无显著性误差,精密度RSD（n=6）0.45%～4.05%,准确度?lgC （n=6）在-0.008%～0.009%之间,适用于地质样品中的铌、钽、锂、铍、铷、钨元素的测定。     

Computation of Entropy Production in Stratified Flames Based on Chemistry Tabulation and an Eulerian Transported Probability Density Function Approach

This contribution presents a straightforward strategy to investigate the entropy production in stratified premixed flames. The modeling approach is grounded on a chemistry tabulation strategy, large eddy simulation, and the Eulerian stochastic field method. This enables a combination of a detailed representation of the chemistry with an advanced model for the turbulence chemistry interaction, which is crucial to compute the various sources of exergy losses in combustion systems. First, using detailed reaction kinetic reference simulations in a simplified laminar stratified premixed flame, it is demonstrated that the tabulated chemistry is a suitable approach to compute the various sources of irreversibilities. Thereafter, the effects of the operating conditions on the entropy production are investigated. For this purpose, two operating conditions of the Darmstadt stratified burner with varying levels of shear have been considered. The investigations reveal that the contribution to the entropy production through mixing emerging from the chemical reaction is much larger than the one caused by the stratification. Moreover, it is shown that a stronger shear, realized through a larger Reynolds number, yields higher entropy production through heat, mixing and viscous dissipation and reduces the share by chemical reaction to the total entropy generated.
