Fourth-derivative spectrophotometric determination of neodymium in mixed rare earths with methyl thymol blue and cetylpyridinium chloride

A sensitive and selective method is described for the determination of neodymium in mixed rare earths using fourth-derivative spectrophotometry. The method is based on the absorption spectra of 4f electron transitions of the complex of neodymium with methyl thymol blue and cetylpyridinium chloride. The influence of various instrumental parameters and reaction conditions for maximum colour development are investigated. The calibration curve is linear over the range 0–3.5 g ml^–1 neodymium. The relative standard deviation for determination of 1.4 g ml^–1 neodymium (n = 7) is 1.6%. The detection limit (signal-to-noise ratio = 3) is 0.2 g ml^–1.     

Structural materials: metal-silicon-Boron. The Nb-rich corner of the Nb-Si-B system

Phase equilibria in the Nb-Nb₅Si₃-NbB region were studied in the melting (crystallization) range by means of light microscopy, XRD, SEM and EMPA on alloys after arc-melting and annealing at 1800°C and at subsolidus temperatures. Phase transition and melting temperatures were determined by DTA and pyrometric Pirani-Alterthum technique resulting in a solidus projection and two isopleths, Nb₇₇Si₂₃-Nb₇₇B₂₃ and Nb₉₉Si₁-Nb₅Si₂B. The T₂-phase Nb₅Si_3−xB_x (0?x?2, Cr₅B₃-type) was found to form equilibria with (Nb), NbB, Nb₃Si, and with the T₁-phase (Mn₅Si₃ derivative type). The T₂-phase melts incongruently (Nb₅Si_1.8B_1.2 at 2245°C) and forms a quasibinary eutectic with the niobium solid solution on a minimum tie-line at ∼1880°C.     

The ordered phase of methylammonium lead chloride CH3ND3PbCl3

The perovskite-structured compound methylammonium lead chloride orders into a low-temperature phase of space group Pnma, in which at 80 K each of the orthorhombic axes , and is doubled with respect to the room temperature disordered cubic phase (). The structure was solved by ab initio methods using the programs EXPO and FOX. This unusual cell basis for space group Pnma is not that of a standard tilt system. This phase, in which the methylammonium ions, are ordered shows distorted octahedra. The octahedra possess a bond angle variance of 60.663°² and a quadratic elongation of 1.018, and are more distorted than those in the ordered phase of methylammonium lead bromide. There is also an alternating long and short Pb-Cl bond along a, due to an off-center displacement of Pb within the octahedron. This suggests that the most rigid unit is actually the methylammonium cation, rather than the PbCl₆ octahedra, in agreement with existing spectroscopic data.

Preparation and crystal structure of Nb6.74 Ta5.26S4 – a new compound in the ternary system Ta?Nb?S

Nb_6.74Ta_5.26S₄ has been prepared by high temperature techniques. The crystal structure has been determined from single crystal X-ray diffraction data (R/R_w = 0.0588/0.0655). The compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pnma with unit cell dimensions a = 959.11 (26) pm, b = 336.37 (10) pm, and c = 3282.51 (74) pm. The orthorhombic cell contains four formula units. Its structure is similar to that of Nb-rich sulfides, rather than to that of Ta-rich sulfides. The metal coordinations are capped distorted cubic prisms and pentagonal prisms while the coordinations of sulfur are capped trigonal prisms.     

Formation and Structure of [Al_(13)(μ_3-OH)_6(μ_2-OH)_6(μ_2-OH)_(12)(H_2O)_(24)]Cl_(15)·13H_2O

1 INTRODUCTION At present, the polyaluminium compounds are mainly studied by single-crystal X-ray diffraction method to obtain the components, structures and exis- tence forms of aluminium in hydrolysis system, and then hydrolysis courses and mechanisms of each hydrolytic polyaluminium cation could be further dis- closed[1～5]. Generally, the single crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction are obtained from the crystallization of polyaluminium cations into sulfates or selenates. Following …

CaO和NaCl焙烧混合稀土精矿过程中的分解反应

用XRD和TG-DTA热分析技术, 研究了含独居石和氟碳铈镧矿的混合稀土精矿在100～1000 ℃焙烧过程中, 添加CaO, NaCl时, REPO4和REFCO3的分解反应. 研究结果表明: 不添加CaO和NaCl时, 仅在377～450 ℃范围内存在REFCO3的分解反应, 其产物是REOF, RE2O3, 以及Ce2O3进一步的氧化产物CeO2, 而REPO4不分解; 添加CaO后在660～750 ℃之间, CaO有3种分解作用: (1) CaO分解REPO4, 其产物是RE2O3和Ca3(PO4)2. (2) CaO分解REOF, 其产物是RE2O3和CaF2. (3) CaO和REOF的分解产物CaF2共同作用分解REPO4, 其分解产物为RE2O3, Ca5F(PO4)3; 添加CaO, NaCl后, 混合精矿的分解率明显提高, NaCl的作用是为反应体系提供了液相, 促进了固相反应物间的传质过程, 加快了反应速度. 与此同时NaCl还可能参加了CaO分解REPO4的反应.
