Double Electric Layer on Liquid Sn-Ga Alloy in Acetonitrile Solutions of Electrolytes

The structure of the double electric layer (DEL) on a liquid dropping Sn-Ga electrode containing 8 at. % of Sn is studied in acetonitrile (AN) solutions of electrolytes. It is shown that the transition from aqueous to AN solutions of electrolytes makes it possible to expand the region of investigation of parameters of DEL on an Sn-Ga electrode from negative charges to a zero charge and to small positive charges. As follows from the obtained data, throughout the entire interval of charges studied, an excess, as compared with an Hg electrode, chemisorption interaction (Sn-Ga)-AN is absent. It is established that the distance of the closest approach of AN dipoles to an ionic core increases upon going from Hg to Sn-Ga to Ga. The Ga, Bi-Ga, and Sn-Ga electrodes, which possess close values of the “electrochemical work function,” are used as an example to show that the metal-solvent chemisorption interaction increases with decreasing distance of the closest approach of its dipoles to the ionic core of the metal. The effect of this factor becomes stronger as the donor number of the solvent increases.     

Fabrication of PbTiO3 Ceramic Fibers by Sol-Gel Processing

The sol-gel processing was applied to the fabrication of PbTiO₃ fibers. Pb(CH₃COO)₂·3H₂O and Ti(OC₃H ₇ ⁱ )₄ were refluxed with stirring in 2-methoxyethanol to form Pb-methoxyethoxide and Ti-methoxyethoxide, respectively, followed by mixing with stirring in 2-methoxyethanol to form Pb−Ti double alkoxide. The hydrolysis and polycondensation reaction of this double alkoxide gave polymerized products, and as a result the viscosity of the solution increased, suggesting that linear polymers were produced through the hydrolysis and polycondensation reaction. Homogeneous PbTiO₃ gel fibers were drawn from the spinnable viscous solutions, which were wellcrystallized into perovskite type PbTiO₃ at 650°C. The heat-treated fibers were a few centimeters long and from 10 to 100 μm in diameter. The fiber was made up of extremely uniform grains. Electron diffraction revealed a preferred growth of (101) planes along the fiber axis, which might be due to the linear molecular characteristics of the alkoxide.     

Fraktionierte Kristallisation von Ammonium- und Magnesiumdoppelnitraten der Ceriterden; Bestimmung der Trennfaktoren und Vergleich der Trennwirkung

Summary The Separation Factors for Pr/La, Nd/Pr, and Sm/Nd, characterizing the crystallization of ammonium and magnesium double nitrates under practical conditions, were determined analytically and are discussed. They confirm that La and Pr can be separated better by fractional crystallization of ammonium double nitrates, whereas in the presence of Sm the magnesium double nitrates are preferable.

     

Resolution of global signals using ratio differential pulse polarograms: Determination of p-nitroaniline and p-nitrotoluene in their mixture

Ratio differential pulse polarograms obtained by dividing the multianalyte and single analyte signals are proposed as a tool for resolution of global signals and quantification of the analytes from a qualitatively known mixture by differential pulse polarography (DPP) and related electroanalytical techniques. The influences of shape and position of the resolving function (DP polarograms of individual analyte) on the efficiency of resolution are discussed on simulated and experimental results. The method is applied for the determination of p-nitroaniline (NA) and p-nitrotoluene (NT) from their mixture in N,N′-dimethylformamide solutions with 0.1 M tetrabutylammonium iodide as supporting electrolyte, using an external calibration diagram and internal standard addition methods. NA and NT give one-electron DP polarographic peaks with 93 mV of peak separation and, therefore, show significant overlapping which depends on the concentration ratio of NA and NT in the mixture. The method is especially suitable for quantification of one analyte in the presence of a large excess of another analyte, because by division the component in excess is removed and the pseudo-ratio DPP of the minor component is clearly revealed in a way which is not possible by deconvolution using polynomial division or deconvolution by Fourier transforms.     

Formal Mathematical Analysis of the Existence of the Common Intersection Point in Relation to Determining the Parameters Describing Ion Adsorption at the Oxide/Electrolyte Interface: Comparison of the Triple and Four-Layer Models

For most oxide/electrolyte systems potentiometric titration curves measured for different ionic strengths have a Common Intersection Point (CIP) which corresponds to the Point of Zero Charge (PZC). However, there are systems where a CIP exists but the surface charge at this point does not equal zero (PZC CIP). In this paper theoretical analysis of the systems in which the PZC and CIP do not coincide is presented. It is based on the well-known 2-pK surface charging approach and Triple Layer Model (TLM) as well as the Four Layer Model (FLM) of the electric double layer. The appropriate mathematical criterion for CIP existence was applied with detailed derivations, both for TLM and FLM. Having determined in this manner the parameter values, one can draw proper conclusions about the features of oxide/electrolyte adsorption systems, in which PZC and CIP do not coincide. The values of adsorption parameters are found by fitting simultaneously the obtained theoretical expressions to both of the experimental titration isotherms, and to the individual isotherms of electrolyte cation adsorption measured using radiometric methods.     

Decomposition of vegetables for determination of Zn,Cd, Pb and Cu by stripping voltammetry

A simple and accurate digestion method using nitric acid, perchloric acid and hydrogen peroxide has been developed for use in trace analysis for heavy metals in vegetables by differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry. The recovery of the metals from the samples is lower if the hydrogen peroxide is omitted from the digestion mixture. Standard reference materials have been analysed satisfactorily by this method.
