The intermolecular potential function of Smith–Thakkar type for C60

The intermolecular potential function of Smith–Thakkar type for C₆₀ has been proposed, and its expression is as follows

The unit of u(r) is J/mol, r is the distance between two C₆₀ molecules center and the unit is nm. Some properties of C₆₀ in the gas and crystal have been studied using the interaction potential of Smith–Thakkar type, such as stability of C₆₀ crystals, virial coefficient and lattice dynamics.     

Cure kinetics of epoxy-amine resins used in the restoration of works of art from glass or ceramic

The cure kinetics of two epoxy/amine resins, Araldite 2020 and AY103-HY956 widely used as adhesives in the restoration of works of art from glass or ceramic was investigated using FTIR spectroscopy. These resins are two-part adhesives, consisting of a resin - A, based on a diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A, and a hardener - B which is either a cycloaliphatic amine (isophorone diamine) for Araldite 2020, or a mixture of three aliphatic amines in HY956. The study was based on the collection of IR spectra, in the middle range (4000-600 cm⁻¹), of mixtures of resin and hardener at different proportions and isothermal temperatures (22-70 °C) as a function of curing time. A kinetic model was employed to simulate the experimental data using two kinetic rate constants. Diffusion control was incorporated to describe the cure behaviour at high degrees of conversion. From fitting to experimental data the kinetic and diffusional parameters were estimated, together with the activation energies of the kinetic and autocatalytic rate constants. It was found that higher degrees of curing are obtained at higher temperatures and increased amounts of hardener. Differences in the performance of the two adhesives are explained based on the type of the amines used as hardener.

Effect of hydrogen bonding of solvent on the thermodynamic stability of cadmium ethylenediamine complexes

Changes in the stability of the cadmium(ii) ethylenediamine complexes in mixed water—DMSO solvents were studied by pH-metry and calorimetry. Complex cations [Cd(en)]²⁺, [Cd(en)₂]²⁺, and [Cd(en)₃]²⁺ are formed in aqueous solutions, and the [Cd(en)₄]²⁺ complex with a partially dentate ligand is stable in DMSO. An increase in the DMSO content in a solvent increases the stability of the complexes. The maximum increase in logK is observed for coordinatively saturated compounds. The thermodynamics of complexation is discussed from the viewpoint of solvation approach. Principal differences in the influence of aqueous-alcohol and aqueous-aprotic solvents on the stability of the metal amino complexes were revealed. Protolytic solvents exert a destabilizing effect on the multiligand complexes, because the coordination sphere is involved in H bonding.

ViscosityB-coefficients,structural entropies and heat capacities,and the effects of ions on the structure of water

The water-structural contributions to the entropies and heat capacities of hydration of over 120 ions and the viscosity B-coefficients of nearly 80 aqueous ions are tabulated and correlated. B-coefficients for many more ions are predicted from this relationship and from their dependence on ionic size and charge. The structural entropies determine a unique scale of water structure making and breaking by the ions.

The solubilities of potassium acetate and benzoate in aqueous 1,4-dioxane at a temperature of 85°C are reported together with a quasi-thermodynamic general treatment of the experimental results.This brief contribution is a second report upon the results of systematic solubility measurements, commenced with Ref.¹, which have been performed by Dr.John A. McNaney during his abruptly truncated lifetime.

Protection of immobilized sulfhydryl groups against autooxidation by alterations in their microenvironment

Immobilized sulfhydryl groups were prepared by partial thiolation of NH₂-glass beads. The microenvironment of the immobilized SH groups was varied by different chemical modifications of neighboring NH₂ groups. Introduction of a strong charge in the surroundings of immobilized sulfhydryls results in their dramatic stabilization against autooxidation. This effect is due to the salting of O₂ from the surface microlayer of the thiolated beads.     

On the Randić Index of Acyclic Conjugated Molecules

The Randić index of an organic molecule whose molecular graph is G is the sum of the weights (d(u)d(v))^−1/2 of all edges uv of G, where d(u) and d(v) are the degrees of the vertices u and v in G. We give a sharp lower bound on the Randić index of conjugated trees (trees with a perfect matching) in terms of the number of vertices. A sharp lower bound on the Randić index of trees with a given size of matching is also given Mei Lu: Partially supported by NNSFC (No. 60172005) Lian-zhu Zhang: Partially supported by NNSFC (No. 10271105) Feng Tian: Partially supported by NNSFC (No. 10431020)
