Irreversible and reversible phase transitions of alkyl monolayers. Gas chromatographic evidence of polar solvent influence on the adsorbing properties of the layer

Summary Further to Gilpin's observations in liquid chromatography of the irreversible transformation of alkyl grafts, following the replacement of an organic mobile phase by an aqueous one, we describe some gas chromatographic experiments which lead to similar (log V_s, I/T) plots, as a consequence of the same solvent release process.We use paraffin films on siliceous supports or hydroxylated liquid substrates or C₂₂-alkyl bonded silica. These experiments demonstrate that this irreversible transition and the melting-like reversible transition are completely different phenomena. They confirm the existence of at least three kinds of monomeric alkyl films.     

A closed model category for ()-connected spaces

For each integer , we give a distinct closed model category structure to the category of pointed spaces such that the corresponding localized category is equivalent to the standard homotopy category of -connected CW-complexes. The structure of closed model category given by Quillen to is based on maps which induce isomorphisms on all homotopy group functors and for any choice of base point. For each , the closed model category structure given here takes as weak equivalences those maps that for the given base point induce isomorphisms on for .

     

Synthesis of Some Additives and Study Effect of Gas Oil Composition on Flow Properties

Nine additives were prepared by esterification of dibasic acid (succinic, adipic, sebacic acid) and polyethylene glycol (Mol.wt.=600, 1000, 4000). These additives were characterized by infrared spectral analysis, average molecular weight and polydispersity index. Their influence on the depression of pour point for two type of paraffin gas oils (G1 and G2) were investigated, blends of paraffin gas oils G1 and G2 by different ratio, when their untreated and treated by additives were evaluated as pour point depressant in comparison with the original paraffin gas oils G1 and G2.

The effect of additive type and gas oil composition on wax crystal modification were studied using the photo micrographic analysis. Diethoxylate (eo=182) sebacate with blend gas oil No. 3 has achieved the best performance as pour point depressant. The photo micrographic analysis showed that, the wax morphology was greatly modified to fine dispersed crystals of compact size. A correlation between the pour point depression and the extent of wax modification was detected.

Flexural,impact, rheological and physical characterizations of POM reinforced by carbon nanotubes and paraffin oil

The paraffin oil dispersion technique innovated in the recent years to synthesize bulk polymer nanocomposite materials has a uniform dispersion. This research work aims to study the effect of added carbon nanotubes (CNTs) on flexural, impact and rheology behaviors of polyoxymethylene (POM) reinforced by 0–0.03 wt% of CNT using paraffin oil dispersion technique. The wettability and lamellar thickness were measured and rheological performance investigated using a parallel plate rheometer. The flexural and impact mechanical properties were also evaluated. The fracture surfaces were then examined by microscopy. The results showed that the energy to break, flexural strength and modulus increased proportionally with the addition of the amount of CNT in the matrix. For the rheology behavior, the viscosity decreased at the low percentage of CNT and then increased with increase in the percentage weight ratio of CNT in the POM matrix. It was also noted that the water contact angle rose with the increase the CNT percentages. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Beyond labels: A review of the application of quantum dots as integrated components of assays, bioprobes, and biosensors utilizing optical transduction

A comprehensive review of the development of assays, bioprobes, and biosensors using quantum dots (QDs) as integrated components is presented. In contrast to a QD that is selectively introduced as a label, an integrated QD is one that is present in a system throughout a bioanalysis, and simultaneously has a role in transduction and as a scaffold for biorecognition. Through a diverse array of coatings and bioconjugation strategies, it is possible to use QDs as a scaffold for biorecognition events. The modulation of QD luminescence provides the opportunity for the transduction of these events via fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET), bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET), charge transfer quenching, and electrochemiluminescence (ECL). An overview of the basic concepts and principles underlying the use of QDs with each of these transduction methods is provided, along with many examples of their application in biological sensing. The latter include: the detection of small molecules using enzyme-linked methods, or using aptamers as affinity probes; the detection of proteins via immunoassays or aptamers; nucleic acid hybridization assays; and assays for protease or nuclease activity. Strategies for multiplexed detection are highlighted among these examples. Although the majority of developments to date have been in vitro, QD-based methods for ex vivo biological sensing are emerging. Some special attention is given to the development of solid-phase assays, which offer certain advantages over their solution-phase counterparts.     

On <Emphasis Type="Italic">k</Emphasis>- critical 2<Emphasis Type="Italic">k</Emphasis>- connected graphs

A graph G is called an (n,k)-graph if κ(G-S)=n-|S| for any S ? V(G) with |S| ≤ k, where ?(G) denotes the connectivity of G. Mader conjectured that for k ≥ 3 the graph K_2k+2?(1-factor) is the unique (2k, k)-graph. Kriesell has settled two special cases for k = 3,4. We prove the conjecture for the general case k ≥ 5.     

Influence of sample preparation on thermal decomposition of wasted polyolefins-oil mixtures

Significant influence of sample preparation on thermal decomposition of polyolefin-technological oil mixtures was proved during tests. Samples of polymer-oil mixtures were prepared with two methods: reducing size and components mixing and soaking in temperature 170°C. Soaking causes decreasing thermal stability of the charge. This fact manifests itself in decreasing of thermal decomposition temperature in laboratory scale, as well as in change of characteristic decomposition temperatures during thermogravimetric analyses. Data analysis was performed with the use of classic method based on Arrhenius kinetic equation and three-parameter model. The influence of sample composition and preparation method on values of three-parameter equation coefficients was observed.
