Chemischer Transport von Cr2O3 mit CrI3/I2 – Experimente und Modellrechnungen zur Beteiligung von CrOI2,g

On the Chemical Transport of Cr₂O₃ with CrI₃/I₂ – Experiments and Model-Calculations for Participation of CrOI_2,g Gaseous chromium oxyiodides that were unknown up to now cause the migration of Cr₂O₃ in the temperature gradient 1 000°C→900°C when iodine (e. g. 0.1 mmol/ml) and CrI₃ is added (eq. (1)). Transport agent for Cr₂O₃ is gaseous CrI₄. With a smaller concentration of iodine (D(I₂) ? 0.016 mmol/ml) and lower temperatures (e.g. T? = 850°C) the influence of H₂O (from the wall of the silica ampoule) becomes more important. Under these conditions the transport of Cr₂O₃ is a result from the endothermic reactions (2), (3) and (4). H_2,g has on the basis of the decomposition of HI_g a positive difference of the solubility and H_2,g should not to be considered as a transport agent. Because of the range of equilibrium-values the reaction 4 has to be taken into consideration. Estimated value of the enthalpie for CrOI_2,g is fixed more precisely by thermodynamic model calculation to Δ_fH°₂₉₈(CrOI_2,g) = ?51.4 kcal/mol. The estimated limit of error for the enthalpie of formation is smaller than ± 5 kcal/mol. Without an addition of CrI₃ is in the system Cr₂O₃/I₂ a migration of Cr₂O₃ not observable.     

Isomorphic electron orbitals for vibronic flexibility in a cyclopropenyl radical molecular device

Summary The vibronic character of this molecular device has been studied using isomorphic electron orbitals. The leading role of the softest vibrational mode for the electron transport process is stressed by the quantum mechanical treatment of the rearrangement operator. The theory was used to investigate the possible function of the soliton valve, which has been suggested as a switching tip. The electronic flexibility of the cyclopropenyl radical with respect to molecular vibrations, which is important for the function of the molecular device, is well characterized by the hardness and softness of the electron structure in terms of the orbital energy-occupation number correlation diagram.     

Synthesis and cationic photopolymerization of electroactive monomers containing functional groups

The synthesis and cationic photopolymerization of different cationically polymerizable monomers containing electroactive groups are reviewed with 98 references. The preparation of various compounds containing electron‐donor or electron‐acceptor moieties and photopolymerizable functional groups is described. After a short discussion of basic principles of cationic polymerization, photoinduced cationic polymerizations of various cationically polymerizable monomers containing both electron‐donor or electron‐acceptor chromophores and the functional groups such as epoxy, vinyl, thiiranyl, oxetanyl and others are reviewed.

d-xylose transport by Candida succiphila and Kluyveromyces marxianus

The kinetics and regulation of d-xylose uptake were investigated in the efficient pentose fermentor Candida succiphila, and in Kluyveromyces marxianus, which assimilate but do not ferment pentose sugars. Active high-affinity (K _m ∼ 3.8 mM; V _max ∼ 15 nmol/[mg·min]) and putative facilitated diffusion low-affinity (K _m ∼ 140 mM; V _max ∼ 130 nmol/[mg·min]) transport activities were found in C. succiphila grown, respectively, on xylose or glucose. K. marxianus showed facilitated diffusion low-affinity (K _m ∼ 103 mM; V _max ∼ 190 nmol/[mg·min]) transport activity when grown on xylose under microaerobic conditions, and both a low-affinity and an active high-affinity (K _m ∼ 0.2 mM; V _max ∼ 10 nmol/[mg·min]) transport activity when grown on xylose under fully aerobic conditions.     

Transport efficiency in femtosecond laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry applying ablation cells with short and long washout times

Relative mass transport efficiencies of near infrared (λ = 795 nm) femtosecond laser generated brass aerosols in helium were measured by ICP-MS applying different ablation cells with short and long washout times. It was found that the transport efficiencies are independent of the cell used within the mutual experimental uncertainties. This finding was confirmed by additional measurements providing the absolute particle mass transport efficiencies of femtosecond laser ablation in He. Here, the transport efficiencies were determined by weighing the samples before and after ablation with a micro-balance, collecting the particles by low-pressure impaction, and evaluating the impacted masses quantitatively by total reflection X-ray fluorescence. Within the experimental uncertainties (± 9–19%) the same absolute transport efficiency (about 77%) was found for all cells applied. This efficiency value can be regarded as a lower limit of the absolute mass transport efficiency since mass losses in the impactor are difficult to quantify.     

Mathematical Modeling of Multicomponent Nonisothermal Adsorption in Sorbent Particles Under Pressure Swing Conditions

A detailed model for nonisothermal sorption of multicomponent mixtures in a single sorbent particle (monodisperse or bidisperse with negligible intracrystalline mass transport limitations) under pressure swing conditions is developed in this study. The dusty-gas model is used to describe the coupling of the molar fluxes, the temperature, the partial pressures and the partial pressure gradients of the components in the pore space of the particle. The variations of the temperature are described by an energy equation in which both convective and conductive modes of heat transport are accounted for. No limitations are imposed on the number of the components in the mixture and on the type of the adsorption isotherm. The model is applied in the investigation of the industrially important air-zeolite 5A system. Two cases with respect to the surrounding gas phase are examined: infinite environment, which is representative for single particle experiments, and finite environment, which is representative for the situation in packed bed adsorbers. It is found that in an infinite environment the external and internal temperature gradients are equally important while in a finite environment the external heat transport limitations are negligible. It is concluded that in modeling the nonisothermal operation of adsorption processes occurring in packed beds it is not necessary to allow for the temperature differences between the gas phase and the surface of the adsorbing particles. Furthermore, if the temperature gradients within the particles can be neglected, only a single temperature equation is needed to describe the energy transport in the bed.     

Proton ionizable crown compounds. 18. Comparison of alkali metal transport in a H2O-CH2Cl2-H2O liquid membrane system by four proton-ionizable macrocycles containing the dialkylhydrogenphosphate moiety

The macrocycle-mediated fluxes of alkali, alkaline earth, and several transition metal cations have been determined and compared in a H₂O-CH₂Cl₂-H₂O liquid membrane system using four water-insoluble macrocycles containing a dialkylhydrogenphosphate moiety. Transport of alkali metal cations by these ligands was greatest from a source phase pH = 12 or above into an acid receiving phase (pH = 1.5). Very low fluxes were observed for the transport of the alkaline earth cations and all transition metal ions studied except Ag⁺ and Pb²⁺ which were transported reasonably well by these new macrocycles.Deceased: September 5, 1987.     

Zustandsbarogramme — Zustandsdiagramme durch Gesamtdruckmessungen

From phasebarograms it is possible to construct phase diagrams. We show on example of the system Bi/Se/O how follow ternary sections from the total pressure measurements in equilibrium and how we can attribute the barogram of the ternary region Bi₂Se₃/Bi₂O₂Se/Se to the binary system Bi₂Se₃/Se. The knowledge of the ternary system Bi/Se/I and its coexistent pressure courses allow to followT-p-x conditions for the chemical transport of phases from this system.

     

A novel oligothiophene derivative as a hole‐transport with emitting material for OLED

A novel oligothiophene derivative containing the triphenylamine moiety with high glass transition temperature (T_g; 135 °C), 5,5′‐{bis[4‐di(4‐thiophenyl)amino]phenyl}‐2,2′‐bithiophene (TTPA‐dimer) was synthesized by the dimerization of tris[4‐(2‐thienyl)phenyl]amine (TTPA) with a palladium catalysis. Some types of electroluminescent (EL) devices that use the amorphous material for a hole‐ and an electron‐transporting with an emitting layer were fabricated. These devices emitted a bright green‐yellowish light (λ_emi; around 510 nm) with a small full width at half maximum (FWHM) rather than that of Alq₃. The single layer EL device showed a maximum luminance of 221 cd/m² at 8 V (0.06 lm/W at 100 cd/m²). On the other hand, the double layer (TTPA‐dimer/Alq₃) EL device that used Alq₃ as the electron transport material was increased up to 10830 cd/m² at 12 V (0.89 lm/W at 300 cd/m²) and with a lower turn‐on voltage (3.2 V at 0.1 cd/m²) than other types of EL devices.

Pyrite Genesis During Early Diagenesis in Yellow Sea and East China Sea

The content and isotopic compositions of different sulphur species in pore-water and solid phases have been examined on five sediment cores taken from muddy sediment region in the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea. Relationships among these data have been investigated with the combination of morphology of mineral pyrite and organic matter so as to role out the diagenetic behaviour of sulphur species at the early stage of diagenesis in modern marine sediment and the origin of pyrite formation.
