Thermodynamic properties of peptide solutions: 7. Partial molar isentropic pressure coefficients of some dipeptides in aqueous solution

The partial molar isentropic pressure coefficients at infinite dilution, K _S,2 ^o , have been determined for a number of dipeptides in aqueous solution at 25°C. For a series of dipeptides of sequence gly-X, where X is an amino acid with a neutral side chain, the K _S,2 ^o values are all more negative than that for diglycine. The results are discussed in terms of the hydration of the side chains. There are significant differences in the K _S,2 ^o values for sequence isomeric dipeptides. These differences can be rationalized in terms of the mutual interactions between the side chain and the ionic end groups in the dipeptides. Possible relationships between K _S,2 ^o and V ₂ ^o , the partial molar volume at infinite dilution, were investigated. For the dipeptides of sequence gly-X there is an interesting linear relationship between K _S,2 ^o /V ₂ ^o and V ₂ ^o .

Ion-ion reactions for charge reduction of biopolymer at atmospheric pressure ambient

Extractive electrospray ionization source(EESI)was adapted for ion-ion reaction,which was demonstrated by using a linear quadrupole ion trap mass spectrometer for the first ion-ion reaction of biopolymers in the atmospheric pressure ambient.     

The construction and evaluation of a high pressure manifold and vessels for a Calvet type microcalorimeter

A Setaram C-80 calorimeter has been modified in order to measure the heat flow of energetic materials at pressures up to 69 MPa. A manifold and sample cells capable of operating at high pressure were designed, constructed and evaluated. This paper will describe, in detail, the high pressure manifold construction, safety assessment and calibration. As well, the results for initial trials with ammonium nitrate (AN), and pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN) at various pressures and heating rates will be discussed.     

Synthesis,Crystal Structure Determination,and Physical Properties of Ag5IO6

The silver iodate(VII), Ag₅IO₆, was obtained by reacting a stoichiometric mixture of Ag₂O and KIO₃, at elevated oxygen pressure, adding a small portion of distilled water. The synthesis was done at 673 K and 270 MPa of oxygen pressure. The crystal structure was solved by direct methods based on single crystal diffraction data ( , Z = 6, a = 5.9366(1), c = 32.1471(6) Å, 323 independent reflections, R₁ = 2.31 %). According to conductivity measurements, Ag₅IO₆ is semiconducting with a specific resistance of 0.08 Ωcm at 300 K. The activation energy was determined as 7.4(1) meV in the temperature range of 220 – 300 K, and 4.3(1) meV in the temperature range of 90 – 180 K. The optical band gap for Ag₅IO₆ is 1.4 eV. Ag₅IO₆ is diamagnetic with a magnetic susceptibility of ?4.4×10^?4 emu/mol.     

Inversion of the Temperature Coefficient of Internal Pressure and Structural Organization of Liquid Phase Systems

Inversion of the temperature coefficient of internal pressure in liquid phase systems is considered. Both temperature and concentration inversions of the coefficient are shown to be possible. Details of the temperature inversion are discussed. This type of inversion is characteristic of only associated hydrogen-bonded liquids and is due to weaker association of molecules.     

High-pressure synthesis of cyclic phenylacetylene oligomer

New conjugated oligomers were prepared by reacting phenylacetylene under high pressure of 0.11 to 0.92 GPa at 100–200°C for 0–5 h. The number-average molecular weight M?_n, the weight-average molecular weight M?_w, and the oligomer yield increased with pressure, tem-perature, and time. The average molecular weight of the oligomer showed the maximum value (M?_n: 830, M?_w: 2400) under 0.92 GPa, the maximum pressure, where phenylacetylene was oligomerized at a constant temperature. The structure of the oligomer was investigated from ESR, infrared, UV–VIS, field desorption mass (FDMS) spectra, and ¹³C NMR spec-trum. Analysis of the FDMS spectrum revealed that the molecular weight of the oligomer was multiple of the monomer. ¹³C NMR spectrum of the oligomer showed the absence of sp-carbon (? C?). We found that the oligomer had a cyclic structure. The cyclic oligomers of pentamer or more were new compounds. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Time-dependent mixing and demixing processes in binary lipid monolayers studied by mixed and separate spreading using film pressure and film potential measurements

Using both spreading techniques — mixed spreading and separate spreading- and, simultaneously, film pressure and film potential measurements, the mixing behavior of the following five binary systems was investigated and compared: 1) system 1,2-dilauroyl-phosphatidylethanolamine/cholesterol; 2) system 1,2-dimyristoyl-phosphatidylethanolamine/cholesterol; 3) system 1,2-dipalmitoyl-phosphatidylethanolamine/cholesterol; 4) system Na-eicosyl sulphate/hexadecanol; 5) system phosphatidic acid/1,2-dimyristoyl-phosphatidylethanolamine.Analyzing the time and concentration dependence of the /a isotherms and v/a isotherms (^s = film pressure, v ^s potential,a=average area per molecule in mixed films in the monolayers) of the binary monolayers it can be concluded that the components of the binary systems 1–4 are complete miscible in the monolayers. On the other hand the components of the system 5 are probably partially miscible only.     

Adsorption Heat Pump Using an Innovative Coupling Refrigeration Cycle

An adsorption heat pump system using a new binary coupling adsorptive cycle is developed and tested. Experimental results show that the COP of the binary coupling cycle is higher than that of a pure zeolite-water system. The system operating pressure is found to be moderate (close to the ambient pressure) when a proper concentration of ammonia is used in the system. The moderate operating pressure of the new coupling cycle results in low leakage to the system, achieving long life and the light design of the system vessels. The use of the new binary adsorption cycle greatly improves the feasibility and reliability of the adsorption heat pumps, providing essential benefits for the industrialisation of adsorption heat pumps.
