Water Sorption on Mesoporous Aluminosilicate MCM-41
1995
Characterization of the interaction of water with the highly ordered mesoporous solid MCM-41 (pore diameter ∼2.5 nm) is undertaken with the aid of several techniques (adsorption gravimetry, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and controlled rate-evolved gas analysis). The relatively complex water-MCM-41 interactions are characterized by a type V isotherm indicating an initial repulsive character followed by a capillary condensation step of the adsorbate. This highlights both hydrophobic and hydrophilic properties of this potential model mesoporous adsorbent.
Keggin heteropolyacid H3PW12O40 supported on different oxides for catalytic and catalytic photo-assisted propene hydration
2013
Catalytic and catalytic photo-assisted hydration of propene to form 2-propanol in gas–solid regime at atmospheric pressure and 85 1C were carried out by using a heteropolyacid (POM) supported on different oxides. Binary materials were prepared by impregnation of H3PW12O40 on different commercial and home prepared supports (TiO2, SiO2, WO3, ZrO2, ZnO, Al2O3). Some of the composites were active both for catalytic and catalytic photo-assisted reactions. The Keggin type POM was completely and partially degraded, when supported on ZnO and Al2O3, respectively, and these binary solids always resulted as inactive for both catalytic and catalytic photo-assisted reactions. The supported Keggin POM sp…
A multi-technique, micrometer- to atomic-scale description of a synthetic analogue of chukanovite, Fe-2(CO3)(OH)(2)
2014
International audience; A synthetic analogue of chukanovite Fe-2(CO3)(OH)(2) is formed during experimental work on iron-clay interactions simulating the cooling of containers in radioactive waste repositories. Despite its small size and the mixture with other minerals it is undoubtedly identified by X-Ray Diffraction, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy and Transmission Electron Microscopy. For the first time, the structural characterisation of a synthetic chukanovite is carried out thanks to the combination of Automated Diffraction Tomography and Precession Electron Diffraction. Refinement results and comparison with literature data show that the structure…
Phase transitions in i-butylammonium halogenoantimonate(III) and bismuthate(III) crystals
1997
Abstract Differential scanning calorimetry, dielectric, thermal expansion, infrared and preliminary X-ray diffraction studies on i-butylammonium halogenoantimonate(III) and bismuthate(III) crystals are reported. All crystals: (i-C4H9NH3)2BiCl5, (i-C4H9NH3)2SbBr5, (i-C4H9NH3)3BiCl6, (i-C4H9NH3)3Bi2Br9, (i-C4H9NH3)3Sb2Br9, show one or more structural phase transitions of first order type. The values of the transition entropies suggest that the most of the phase transitions are of the order-disorder type. The infrared studies confirmed the contribution of the i-butylammonium cations in the phase transition mechanism.
Experimental and theoretical study to explain the morphology of CaMoO4 crystals
2018
Abstract CaMoO 4 crystals were prepared by a controlled co-precipitation method and processed in a domestic microwave-assisted hydrothermal system with two different surfactants (ethyl 4-dimethylaminobenzoate and 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic dianhydride). The corresponding structures were characterized by X-ray diffraction and Rietveld refinement techniques, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, ultraviolet–visible absorption spectroscopy, and photoluminescence measurements. Field emission scanning electron microscopy was used to investigate the morphology of the as-synthesized aggregates. The structure, the surface stability of the (001), (112), (100), (110), (101), and (111) surfaces…
On-line monitoring of food fermentation processes using electronic noses and electronic tongues: A review
2013
Fermentation processes are often sensitive to even slight changes of conditions that may result in unacceptable end-product quality. Thus, close follow-up of this type of processes is critical for detecting unfavorable deviations as early as possible in order to save downtime, materials and resources. Nevertheless the use of traditional analytical techniques is often hindered by the need for expensive instrumentation and experienced operators and complex sample preparation. In this sense, one of the most promising ways of developing rapid and relatively inexpensive methods for quality control in fermentation processes is the use of chemical multisensor systems. In this work we present an ov…
Irradiation-induced damage in porous low-k materials during low-energy heavy-ion elastic recoil detection analysis
2006
Abstract With the implementation of time-of-flight elastic recoil detection (ToF-ERD) for the analysis of thin films with high depth resolution using a standard ‘low-energy’ accelerator, routine application of ERD in semiconductor technology becomes possible. In case of irradiation-sensitive materials, like organosilicate low- k films, the energetic incident beam damages the sample during the measurement, resulting in loss of the lighter elements and, as a consequence, altering the sample composition. The ion beam induced damage is investigated for 19 F, 35 Cl, 63 Cu, 79 Br and 127 I beams at energies of 6–16 MeV and typical fluences for ERD analysis. By means of Fourier transform infrared …
Humic Substances for Agricultural Applications: Properties and Challenges
2021
Nowadays, humic substances, the main organic components of soils and many fossil sediments, are becoming a material of wide application in agriculture and many technologies. Elemental, functional and spectral (UV, fluorescence, FTIR, 13C NMR spectra) analysis of industrially produced, as well as reference humic substances demonstrate significant differences in properties of humic substances depending on their origin, and thus, their potential application in agriculture. For authentication of humic substances’ origin, their elemental composition, as well as stable isotope (δC, δN, δO) ratios can be used.

Model compounds of spent bleach liquor: 2,3,6-trichloro-p-cymenene and 2,3,5-trichloro-p-cymenene
1991
Abstract 2,3,6-Trichloro-p-cymene (1) was synthesized by chlorination of p-cymene. A reaction mixture was distilled in a Fischer-Spaltrohr distilling apparatus. One fraction contained small quantities of chlorinated cymenenes (two isomers) which were concentrated by preparative gas chromatography. Their FTIR and mass spectra were recorded. In earlier paper the structures of 2,3,6-trichloro-p-cymenene were verified by means of its coupled 13C NMR and mass spectra. In the present work the mass and FTIR spectral data of 2,3,5-trichloro-p-cymenene and 2,3,6-trichloro-p-cymenene are published.
