Diffusion in aqueous copper sulfate and copper sulfate-sulfuric acid solutions

Diffusion coefficients of copper sulfate-water and copper sulfate-sulfuric acid-water solutions have been determined at 25°C using conductimetric and diaphragm-cell techniques. The ternary diffusion measurements indicate that diffusion of sulfuric acid can produce large counterflows of copper sulfate and vice versa. If diffusion of copper sulfate in aqueous sulfuric acid solutions is treated as a binary process, the measured apparent diffusivities of copper sulfate can be 1 to 8% lower than the salt's true diffusivity. Equations are developed to predict transport coefficients from the concentrations and mobilities of the diffusing species.     

Proton-ionizable crown compounds. 11. Synthesis of macrocyclic ligands containing two sulfonamide groups and chloro substituents or pyridine subcyclic units and a preliminary study of cation transport by three of these ligands

Five new macrocyclic ligands each containing two sulfonamide groups have been prepared. Three of these compounds contain one or two chloro substituents and the other two have one or two pyridine subcyclic units. A seventeen-membered ring ligand (4) was found to be an excellent transport agent for all alkali metal cations in a water-methylene chloride-water bulk liquid membrane system when the pH of the source phase was 13 or higher. The chlorine-substituted analog (5) was a poor transport agent for the alkali metal cations possibly because the chlorine atom blocked entry to the macrocycle cavity. An open-chain analog containing two sulfonamide groups was particularly effective in transporting cesium ions.     

Zum chemischen Transport von Molybdän mit SbBr3 – Experimente und Modellrechnungen

On the Chemical Transport of Molybdenum using SbBr₃ – Experiments and Thermochemical Calculations Mo migrates in a temperature gradient from the region of higher temperature to the lower temperature using SbBr₃ as transport agent. For various mean transport temperatures (750 ? T ? 1000°C; T = 0,5 (T₁ + T₂); T₂ ? T₁ = 100°C) we observed small transport rates (? ? 0,6 mg/h) which rise up to 16 mg/h for higher transport agent concentrations. Small amounts of MoO₂ and Sb were detected beside Mo in the sink. The observed solid phases in the sink are in agreement with thermodynamical calculations by CVTrans which also demonstrate that the formation of MoO₂ and Sb as well as the transport effect of SbBr₃ are caused by traces of H₂O from the quartz glass wall. The sequence of deposition of Mo, MoO₂ and Sb in the examined temperature range can be calculated (CVTrans) and measured with the transport balance.     

A modified simplex method for multifactor optimization of selectivity in gas chromatography

A computer-assisted advanced simplex method is presented for the simultaneous optimization of multifactor ( stationary phase loading, carrier gas flow rate and column temperature ) for separation of ten compounds in gas chromatography. A three factors factorial design was used. The method was based on a special polynomial established from fifteen preliminary runs, using resolution as the selection criterion, with connection to a general simplex method. Excellent agreement is found between the predicted data and the experimental results, and most of experiments required in the general simplex method can be omitted.     

Zum chemischen Transport von Molybdän mit HgBr2 — Experimente und Modellrechnungen

On the Chemical Transport of Molybdenum using HgBr₂ ? Experiments and Thermochemical Calculations . Mo migrates under the influence of HgBr₂ in a temperature gradient (e.g. 1 000→900°C). Besides elementary Mo we observed in some experiments the occurence of MoBr₂ and MoO₂ (from oxygen containing impurities) respectively. The transport behaviour (deposition sequence; deposition rates of various phases) has been enlightened by continous measurement of the mass change during the transport experiments using a special “transport balance”. Thus obtained deposition rates m(Mo) for molybdenum reached in the temperature region 800 ≤ T ≤ 1 040°C a maximum at T = 980°C independend from the starting material (Mo or Mo/MoO₂ mixtures). For variable densities D of transport agent at a constant temperature (T = 950°C) increasing values for m(Mo) were observed (m(Mo) = 23 mg/h, D_max = 8.61 mg HgBr₂/cm³). Thermochemical calculation give strong evidence for the migration of Mo via the endothermal reaction . The experimental deposition rates are about half as large than the calculated values. Good agreement between calculations and experiments were obtained only assuming the presense of oxygen in the starting materials.     

Synthetic receptors based on calix[4]arene functionalized at the lower rim in molecular recognition of dicarboxylic, α-hydroxycarboxylic,and α-amino acids

New calix[4]arenes, di- and tetrasubstituted at the lower rim, with different functional groups were synthesized. They were studied as carriers of a series of dicarboxylic and -hydroxycarboxylic acids through a liquid impregnated membrane. The calix[4]arenes under study are capable of molecular recognition of oxalic acid in the series of structurally similar dicarboxylic and -hydroxycarboxylic acids. The regularities found make it possible to change purposefully the receptor ability of 1,3-disubstituted calix[4]arenes by variation of the nature of substituents.     

Dependence of the relative retention of organic compounds on the nature and pressure of the carrier gas and on the thickness of the PEG-20M film in the capillary column

The effects of the carrier gas nature and pressure on the relative retention values of organic compounds were studied using a series of capillary columns differing in the film thickness of the polar stationary phase (PEG-20M). Relative retention depends linearly on the carrier gas pressure. This dependence becomes more pronounced in the following order of carrier gases: helium < nitrogen < carbon dioxide. The limiting relative retention at a carrier gas pressure approaching zero rather than relative retention values measured experimentally (relative retention time, Kovats retention index,etc.) is an invariant characteristic of a compound subjected to chromatography. For the carrier gases studied, the limiting retention values almost does not depend on the nature of the carrier gas used. The limiting indicating the complex absorption-adsorption nature of these parameters. Dissolution of a carrier gas in the stationary liquid phase has an effect on the relative retention.

An Analytical Study of Molecular Transport in a Zeolite Crystallite Bed

Analytical solutions of the diffusion equations to obtain the diffusant concentrations in the macro- and micropores which constitute the pore system of a zeolite bed are presented. The parameter which determines the influence of each pore type on the evolution of the adsorbate/adsorbant system towards the equilibrium state is described. Examples are given to illustrate a qualitative and quantitative study based on the curves obtained from these equations.
