Synthesis of non-equilibrium PtxOs1−x Solid solutions. Crystal structure of [Pt(NH3)4][OsCl6]

Several non-equilibrium solid solutions belonging to the platinum-osmium systems Os_0.9Pt_0.1, Os_0.8Pt_0.2, Os_0.5Pt_0.5, Os_0.7Pt_0.3, Os_0.75Pt_0.25 are prepared and studied. The thermal decomposition of [Pt(NH₃)₄][OsCl₆] in the hydrogen and helium atmosphere is investigated. It is found that the Pt_0.5Os_0.5 solid solution develops through the formation of (NH₄)₂[OsCl₆] and a metallic phase based on Pt. The crystal structure of a double complex salt [Pt(NH₃)₄][OsCl₆] is studied (X8-APEX Bruker, 1508 independent reflections, R = 2.04%). Crystal data for PtOsN₄Cl₆H₁₂ are: a = 11.6216(5) Å, b = 11.0016(5) Å, c = 10.3819(5) Å, V = 1327.4(1) ų, space group Cmca, Z = 4, d _x = 3.333 g/cm₃. The coordination polyhedron around Os is octahedral: 〈Os-Cl〉 2.357 Å, ∠Cl-Os-Cl 89.5–90.5°, while around Pt it is square-planar: Pt-N 2.046 Å, ∠ N-Pt-N 89.59° and 90.41°.

Untersuchungen im System LaI2/H2: Phasenverhältnisse und Fehlordnung

Investigation of the LaI₂/H₂ System: Phase Relations and Stacking Disorder Heating of LaI₂ under 1 bar hydrogen pressure to 650 °C leads to light gray LaI₂H_0.95(3), accompanied by a structural change from tetragonal to hexagonal. Sharp reflections in the XRD pattern can be indexed in P6₃/mmc with a = 4.2158(7)Å and c = 15.508(3)Å, however, diffuse reflections indicate the presence of stacking faults in the structure, which correspond to a polytypic intergrowth of MoS₂ and NbS₂ type structural fragments. Increasing the reaction temperature to 730 °C results in a better defined diffraction pattern with the peak positions close to those of the 2H‐NbS₂ structure type. An X‐ray powder study of the samples LaI₂H_n proved the miscibility gap between LaI₂ and LaI₂H_n (0 ≤ n ≤ 0.5) in agreement with previous results. With decreasing H‐content of the homogeneous phase the lattice parameters change in opposite direction, a increasing to 4.236(1)Å and c decreasing to 15.39(2)Å for the lower limit.

Magnesium substitution in Nd0.7Sr0.3MnO3

Magnesium substitution in Nd_0.7Sr_0.3MnO₃ has been studied by neutron powder diffraction. Polycrystalline samples of nominal compositions Nd_0.7Sr_0.3Mn_1−yMg_yO₃ with y=0.0, 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3 were synthesized by the standard solid-state reaction method. Rietveld refinements of the neutron powder diffraction data showed that all samples had distorted perovskite structure of orthorhombic symmetry. Mg initially preferred to substitute for Nd and only at Mg concentration greater than 0.1, a substantial substitution for Mn occurred. Our study also showed that Mg-substitution did not change the crystal structure of Nd_0.7Sr_0.3MnO₃.     

Crystal structures and phase transition in the system SrTiO3-La2/3TiO3

The distribution of A-site cations in the perovskite system La_xSr_1−3x/2TiO₃ depends on the concentration of La³⁺ ions and associated vacancies. For small x (x?0.2), the substitutions are expected to be random. For x?0.55, the cations are ordered in such a way that successive layers of A-sites are occupied to greater and lesser degree, and this ordering drives a tetragonal distortion. For x from about 0.3 to 0.5, the X-ray patterns show diffuse peaks indicative of similar ordering, but this is not long-range order and no tetragonal distortion results. The lower temperature structures also exhibit out-of-phase tilting of the TiO₆ octahedra, setting in at temperatures varying linearly with composition from 105 K for x=0, to about 650 K at x=2/3.     

Chemical, sensory and microbiological changes of gamma irradiated coconut cream powder

A study was carried out to determine optimum decontamination dose for a locally manufactured coconut cream powder. Samples were gamma irradiated (0–15 kGy) and ageing process was achieved using GEER oven at 60 °C for 7 days, which is equivalent to one-year storage at room temperature. Iodine value (IV), ranging from 4.8 to 6.4, was not affected by radiation doses and storage, however peroxide value and thiobarbituric acid (TBA) generally increased with radiation doses. In most samples, peroxide value (meq/kg) reduced after storage, whilst the TBA (mg malonaldehyde/kg), indicator for product quality, slightly increased. The sensory evaluation conducted using 25 taste panellists indicated that scores on odour, creamy taste and overall acceptance for all irradiated samples at more than 5 kGy were significantly lower (P<0.05) than the control. However, the panellists could not detect any significant differences among the irradiation doses (P>0.05). All stored products were significantly different in colour, creamy taste, odour and overall acceptance (P<0.05) when compared to the non-stored non-irradiated control. Microbiological count of the samples prior to irradiation was in the range of 1×10²–1.7×10³ cfu/g with no detection of Salmonella sp. and Escherichia coli. No microbial colonies were detected after irradiation. Based on the TBA and overall sensory acceptance, gamma irradiation of 5 kGy was found to be the optimum dose and lower doses can be considered to decontaminate coconut cream powder.     

A Structural Investigation of La2(GeO4)O and Alkaline-Earth-Doped La9.33(GeO4)6O2

The structures of the oxyorthogermanate La₂(GeO₄)O and the apatite-structured La_9.33(GeO₄)₆O₂ have been refined from powder neutron diffraction data. La₂(GeO₄)O crystallizes in a monoclinic unit cell (P2₁/c) and is cation stoichiometric in contrast to previous reports. La_9.33(GeO₄)₆O₂ crystallizes in a hexagonal unit cell (P6₃/m) and the powder diffraction data show anisotropic peak broadening that is observed in electron diffraction patterns as incommensurate diffuse spots at hkq reciprocal planes (with q=1.6-1.7) and can be attributed to a correlated disorder in the “apatite channels”. This compound was doped up to a nominal composition close to M₂La₈(GeO₄)₆O₂ with M=Ca, Sr, Ba. The dopant ions preferentially occupy the 4f sites as the number of La vacancies decreases. The measured ionic conductivity of La_9.33(GeO₄)₆O₂ is about 3 orders of magnitude larger than for La₂(GeO₄)O at high temperatures and decreases with increasing dopant content from the highest value of about 0.16 S cm⁻¹ at 1160 K.     

A novel zirconocene/ultradispersed diamond black powder supported catalytic system for ethylene polymerization

A novel carrier of ultradispersed diamond black powder (UDDBP) was used to support metallocene catalyst. Al₂O₃ was also used as carrier in order to compare with UDDBP. Supported catalysts for ethylene polymerization were synthesized by two different reaction methods. One way was direct immobilization of the metallocene on the support, the other was adsorption of MAO onto the support followed by addition of the metallocene. Four supported catalysts Cp₂ZrCl₂/UDDBP, Cp₂ZrCl₂/Al₂O₃, Cp₂ZrCl₂/MAO/UDDBP and Cp₂ZrCl₂/Al₂O₃/MAO were obtained. The content of the zirconium in the supported catalyst was determined by UV spectroscopy. The activity of the ethylene polymerization catalyzed by supported catalyst was investigated. The influence of Al/Zr molar ratio and polymerization temperature on the activity was discussed. The polymerization rate was also observed.
