HPLC separation of hydrogenated derivatives of buckminsterfullerene

Summary The effect of composition and flow rate of the mobile phase on the HPLC separation of hydrogenated buckminsterfullerene (C₆₀H_n n=2–38) was investigated on BuckySep column. Toluene was used as the basic solvent and hexane, heptane, cyclohexane, THF, acetonitrile, acetone, ethanol and 2-propanol as co-solvents. The fraction of co-solvents was varied 10–80%, and the flow rate 1–0.1 mL min⁻¹. Toluene-acetonitrile 65∶35 and toluene-acetone 50∶50 provided the best separation. Under the best conditions complete separation of C₆₀H₂ and almost complete separation of the four most abundant isomers of C₆₀H₄ were achieved. Separation of derivatives with higher hydrogen content was very poor. Presented at: Balaton Symposium on High-Performance Separation Methods, Siófok, Hungary, September 3–5, 1997     

Dynamic surface tension of micellar solutions studied by the maximum bubble pressure method

A theoretical model for the dynamic surface tension of an air bubble expanding in micellar surfactant solution is proposed. The model accounts for the effect of expansion of the bubble surface during the adsorption of surfactant molecules (monomers) and the effect of disintegration of polydisperse micelles on the surfactant diffusion. Assuming small deviations from equilibrium and constant rate of expansion analytical expression for the surface tension and the subsurface concentration of monomers as a function of time is derived. The characteristic time of micellization is computed from the experimental data for two surfactants (sodium dodecyl sulfate and nonylphenol polyglycol ether) obtained by the maximum bubble pressure method.     

Capillary gas chromatographic separation of C10–C12 secondary phenylalkanes on modified cyclodextrin stationary phases

The separation of isomers and enantiomers of branched C₁₀-C₁₂ phenylalkanes by gas chromatography on fused silica capillary columns coated with some modified β- and γ-cyclodextrins was studied. It was shown that the separation of positional isomers of C₁₀-C₁₂ phynylalkanes on modified cyclodextrin capillary columns is not better than that on a column coated with modified polyethylene glycol. Differences were found in the enantioselectivity of modified β- and γ-cyclodextrins for the separation of C₁₀-C₁₂ secondary phenylalkane enantiomers. While alkylderivatives of β-CDs resolve enantiomers of 3-phenylalkanes, alkyl derivatives of γ-CD resolve enantiomers of 2-phenylalkanes. Since shape selectivity factors of modified cyclodextrins have indicated no inclusion of the considered solutes in cyclodextrin cavities, enantioselective interactions most probably occur on the outer sphere of cyclodextrins.     

Determination of weight distribution ratios of Pa(V) and Np(V) with some extraction chromatography resins and the AG1-X8 resin

Literature data on distribution ratios (D_w) of Np(V) and Pa(V) for the AG1-X8 resin are scarce whereas those related on resin capacity factors (k′) values for TEVA, TRU and U/TEVA resins are absent. Therefore, batch extraction experiments for Pa(V) and Np(V) from HCl and HNO₃ media were realized, at tracer scale, with AG1-X8 and EIChroM resins (TEVA, TRU and U/TEVA). Based on the new D_w and k′ values obtained in this study, a new protocol for Pa/Np separation has been developed leading to a better separation factor of 10⁵ and a chemical yield of 97 ± 3% and 99 ± 1% for Pa and Np, respectively. A separation of ²³¹Pa from uranium matrix was successfully tested.

Characteristic behaviour of plasma fluctuations inside a plasma bubble in presence of a magnetic field due to the formation of a potential well

Experiments were carried out to observe the effect of a magnetic field and grid biasing voltage in presence of a plasma bubble in a magnetized, filamentary discharge plasma system. A spherical mesh grid of 80% optical transparency was negatively biased and introduced into the plasma for creating a plasma bubble. Diagnostics via an electrical Langmuir probe and a hot emissive probe were extensively used for scanning the plasma bubble. Plasma floating potential fluctuations were measured at three different positions of the plasma bubble. The instability in the pattern showed the dynamic transition from periodic to chaotic for increasing magnetic fields. Time scale analysis using continuous wavelet transform was carried out to identify the presence of non‐linearity from the contour plots. The mechanisms of the low‐frequency instabilities along with the transition to chaos could be qualitatively explained. Non‐linear techniques such as fast Fourier transform, phase space plot, and recurrence plot were used to explore the dynamics of the system appearing during plasma fluctuations. In order to demonstrate the observed chaotic phenomena in this study, characteristics of chaos such as the Lyapunov exponent were obtained from experimental time series data. The experimentally observed potential structure is confirmed with numerical analysis based on fluid hydrodynamics.
