Developpement de la methode thermique de mesure de la tension superficielle liquide-solide

A thermal method connects the solid-liquid surface tension/s of a substance to its triple point temperature depression. Here a practical process for application of this method is described. A previous determination of the thickness of the condensate layer which does not freeze near the wall of the porous material is no longer necessary. The process is applied to some organic substances and to a metal (indium).

Zusammenfassung Eine thermische Methode ermöglicht die Oberflächenspannung/s einer Substanz mit der Erniedrigung der Tripelpunkttemperatur in Bezug zu bringen. Eine vorangehende Bestimmung der Dicke der Kondensatschicht, deren Aggregatzustand sich bei Kontakt mit dem porösen Material nicht ändert, ist überflüssig. Die Methode wird auf einige organische Verbindungen und ein Metall (Indium) angewandt.

Comparative methods in the determination of wax content and pour points of crude oils

In this research, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and gas chromatography is used to determine the wax content of fourteen crude oils of different sources. Different empirical equations were applied to compare the wax content of crude oils. For the fourteen crude oil samples with the wax content ranging from 7.5 to 43.8 mass%, it was observed that the results of empirical equations were in good agreement with those determined by DSC and GC. Accordingly, a correlation between ASTM pour point and the temperature at which 2 mass% of wax has precipitated out from crude oil is developed.     

DSC and Rheometry Investigations of Crude Oils

Thermal characteristics and rheological behaviour of eight crude oils covered a wide range of fluid composition and properties were studied by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and viscometry. Wax appearance temperatures (WAT) of crude oils were determined by DSC and viscometry. Good agreement is obtained between the results. The dynamic viscosity in the Newtonian temperature range of the crude oils (above 30°C) generally obeyed a simple first-order Arrhenius type of temperature dependence. Activation energies of flow in the non-Newtonian range are not uniquely defined. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Liquid chromatographic retention of homologous alkanes in the two states of C18-bonded reversed phase silicas

Summary LiChrosorb Si100 densely grafted with octadecylmonofunctional reagents and the similar commerical LiChrosorb RP 18 have been studied in RP-HPLC, with water-methanol mobile phases at different temperatures. They exhibit a phase transition revealing two different states of bonded film as we have previously shown on densely grafted C18 or C22 macroporous silicas.The measurement of the capacity factors of the alkane homologous series indicated a discontinuity in the plot (logK, N) at a critical number whose value is dependent on temperature. Two different forms of these curves can be observed above and below the transition, revealing the influence of bonded film state on the retention mechanism.     

Etude radiocristallographique et calorimetrique des transitions de phase de Ag8GeTe6

Powder and single crystals of the Ag₈GeTe₆ phase have been prepared by direct synthesis and chemical vapor transport reaction (iodine), respectively. The low-temperature phase of this material has been investigated by differential scanning calorimetry analysis and X-ray diffraction. The phase transitions are interpreted as a result of low-temperature ordering of the Ag⁺ ions.     

Synthesis and DSC study of model hard segments from diphenyl methane diisocyanate and butane diol

Model hard segments having different chain length and chain terminating groups, such as methyl, ethyl, octyl, and octadecyl, have been synthesized from diphenyl-methane diisocyanate (MDI) and butanediol and studied by DSC. In the case of short chain ends (i.e., methyl, ethyl, and octyl), hard segments having up to three MDI units show an increase of melting temperature T_m, while those with octadecyl chain end have T_m increase continuously with the number of MDI units. Enthalpy and entropy decrease with the augmentation of the hard-segment length. Side groups on the chain ends have a great influence on the melting properties.

Influence of the Water Content on the Thermal Behaviour of β-Cyclodextrin at Low and Very Low Temperature

Heat capacities of -CD·9.7H₂O weremeasured by adiabatic calorimetry in the temperature range10–300 K. Differential scanning calorimetry wasused to follow the evolution of the thermalbehaviour versus hydration ratio between 170 and300 K. At least three different behaviours wereobserved, according to the number, n, of watermolecules: 0 < n < 7, 7 < n < 10, and n > 10.These macroscopic results are discussed in terms oforganization differences between the most or theleast hydrated -CD. The structuring effectof the hydration water molecules is emphasised. Theexistence of two energetically distinct -CDhydrates (n < 10 and n > 10) seems to be confirmed. Thishypothesis is discussed in comparison with previousspectroscopic and structural studies.
