Free volume‐size dependence on temperature and average molecular‐weight in poly(ethylene oxide) determined by positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy

Positron lifetime measurements were carried out in a series of poly(ethylene oxide)—PEO—of different average molecular weights (M _w): 1000, 1500, 6000, 10,000, 300,000, and 4 M. The mean radius (R ) and the mean free volume size (V_f) values were determined using a semiempirical equation that correlates the ortho‐positronium (o‐Ps) lifetime (τ₃) and size of holes existing in the amorphous phases. The hole mean radius values determined at room temperature from lifetime spectra were found to be between 2.68 and 2.97 Å, and the hole volumes between 80 and 110 ų. Free volume size evolution was studied with temperature variation until the melting temperature of the PEO samples. The degree of crystallinity and the melting temperatures were determined by Differential Scanning Calorimetry. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 37: 219–226, 1999

Reactivity of AlMe3 with titanium(IV) Schiff base complexes: X-ray structure of [Ti{(μ-Br)(AlMe2)}{(μ-Br)(AlMe2X)}(salen)] · C7H8 (X=Me or Br) and reactivity studies of mono-alkylated [Ti(Me)X(L)] complexes

[TiCl₂(salen)] (1) reacts with AlMe₃ (1:2) to give the heterometallic Ti(III) and Ti(IV) complexes [Ti{(μ-Cl)(AlMe₂)}{(μ-Cl)(AlMe₂X)}(salen)] (X=Me or Cl) (2) and [TiMe{(μ-Cl)(AlCl₂Me)}(salen)] (3). Addition of diethyl ether to 3 affords [Ti(Me)Cl(salen)] (4). The analogous reaction of [TiBr₂(salen)] (5) gives the crystallographically characterised [Ti{(μ-Br)(AlMe₂)}{(μ-Br)(AlMe₂X)}(salen)] (X=Me or Br) (6) and [Ti(Me)Br(salen)] (7) in a single step, whilst the comparable reaction of [TiCl₂{(3-MeO)₂salen}] (8) with AlMe₃ yields [Ti(Me)Cl{(3-MeO)₂salen}] (9) with no evidence of titanium(III) species. Reactivity of both halide and methyl groups of 4 has been probed using magnesium reduction, SbCl₅ and AgBF₄ halide abstraction and SO₂ insertion reactions. Hydrolysis of [Ti(Me)X(L)] complexes affords μ-oxo species [TiX(L)]₂(μ-O) [X=Cl, L=salen (13); X=Br, L=salen (14); X=Cl, L=(3-MeO)₂salen (15)].

Effect of Oxalic Acid on Stabilization and Property of Sb-Doped Tin Oxide Sol

Zeta potential studies show that the ATO nanoparticle surface is positively charged in pH range from 2 to 5 without oxalic acid. The addition of oxalic acid brings a charge reversal on the surface of ATO particle in a wide pH range. The interaction of oxalic acid with surface of ATO nanoparticle was studied by FTIR and indicates that the most probable mechanism is the formation of Sn-O-C bonds via the condensation reaction between the oxalic acid and surface hydroxyl groups. TEM, X-ray diffraction and UV-Vis-Near IR spectra were used to characterize the nanocrystalline ATO sol and thin gel film.     

The role of MgO in the binding of SO<Subscript>2 </Subscript>by lime-containing materials

Summary The results of investigation of MgO participation in the binding of SO₂ with lime-containing materials as sorbents are presented. Experiments of SO₂ binding into solid phase using model samples of reactive grade MgO and CaO varying the mole ratio of MgO/CaO from 9:1 to 1:9 were carried out. Besides, dolomite and limestone samples with different MgO/CaO mole ratio (from 1.24 to 0.13) and samples of ashes formed at combustion of Estonian oil shale (containing 35-40% of carbonates) and its semicoke were studied Initial samples, intermediate and final products were subjected to chemical, IR-spectroscopy, X-ray and BET specific surface area analyses. The results of the present study confirmed the active participation of MgO in the binding of SO₂ into the solid phase. In addition to CaSO₄ the formation of Ca,Mg-double sulphate CaMg₃(SO₄)₄ and -MgSO₄ was observed. The presence of CaMg₃(SO₄)₄ was fixed in a large temperature range 400-900°C and that of -MgSO₄ in between 500-700°C. The optimum temperature range for formation and durability of CaMg₃(SO₄)₄ was 700-800°C.     

Electrocatalytic properties of surface oxides on gold,platinum, and stainless steel electrodes in electrooxidation of malic acid

Electrocatalytic properties of oxides formed at gold, platinum, and stainless steel electrodes in the malic acid electrooxidation in 0.1 M Na₂SO₄ are studied. Gas chromatographic analysis of the electrolyte after holding the potential at 1.0 V for 8 h shows that on platinum and gold electrodes 2 mmol of acetaldehyde are produced and on stainless steel, 45 mmol. The acetaldehyde yield is the highest on stainless steel.From Elektrokhimiya, Vol. 41, No. 3, 2005, pp. 304–309.Original English Text Copyright © 2005 by Avramov Ivi, Popi, Antonovi.This article was submitted by the authors in English.     

The effect of calcining conditions on the rehydration of dead burnt magnesium oxide using magnesium acetate as a hydrating agent

Summary Magnesium oxide was produced through calcination of magnesite ore. A rehydration percentage of MgO to Mg(OH)₂ of higher than 60% is obtained using calcination temperatures of 1000°C and below. At these temperatures medium reactive MgO was formed. The extend to which dead burnt MgO (obtained after calcination at 1200°C and higher) may be rehydrated is dependent on the calcination time, but even after 1 h and using magnesium acetate as a hydrating agent only 40% of the initial product has rehydrated to Mg(OH)₂. After 4 and more hours of calcinations at 1200°C, a maximum of approximately 14% of the initial MgO is rehydrated back to Mg(OH)₂. Thermogravimetric analysis was performed on the various compounds to determine the amounts of Mg(OH)₂ that formed.
