Solution properties of polyelectrolytes—V. Viscometric study of mixed polyanions in pure water
1990
Abstract A viscometric study of sodium polystyrene sulphonate (NaPSS) and sodium poly( l -glutamate) (NaPLG) in salt-free water has been carried out as a function of the total concentration, cm, and the concentration of one polyelectrolyte at fixed concentration of the other. The influences of the molecular weight and concentration are considered in order to establish the degree of compatibility. For the first time, an equation is proposed to define the reduced viscosity of the NaPSS + NaPLG mixture in water. The viscometric interaction parameter, Bm, taking into account the electrostatic and thermodynamic interactions between both polyions, is defined as a geometrical mean of the contribut…
Standard partial molar volumes of alcohols in aqueous dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide solutions
1990
Density measurements of water-dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB)-alcohol ternary systems as a function of alcohol and surfactant concentrations were carried out at 25°C. The alcohols were propanol (PrOH), 2-propanol (2-PrOH) and hexanol (HexOH). The apparent molar volume Vϕ,R of alcohols have been calculated and the standard (infinite dilution) partial molar volumes of alcohols V R at each surfactant concentration were obtained by means of a least squares fit of Vϕ,R vs. the alcohol concentration. The V R vs. surfactant concentration curves have been rationalized in terms of the partial molar volume of alcohol in the aqueous V f and the micellar V b phases and the distribution constant…
Calorimetric study of myoglobin embedded in trehalose-water matrixes
2009
It has been suggested that in ‘dry’ protein–trehalose–water systems, water–mediated hydrogen bond network, whose strength increases by drying, anchors the protein to its surroundings. To further characterize this effect, we performed a DSC study on low-water myoglobin–trehalose systems. The denaturation temperature resulted to increase by decreasing hydration, and linearly correlated to the glass transition temperature of both the ternary protein–water–trehalose and the binary water–trehalose systems. Further measurements are being performed to investigate eventual differences among different saccharides.
Isobaric vapor–liquid equilibria for 1-propanol+water+lithium nitrate at 100 kPa
2002
Abstract Isobaric vapor–liquid equilibria for the binary systems 1-propanol+lithium nitrate and water+lithium nitrate and the ternary system 1-propanol+water+lithium nitrate have been measured at 100 kPa using a recirculating still. The addition of lithium nitrate to the solvent mixture produced an important salting-out effect and the azeotrope tends to disappear when the salt content increases. The two experimental binary data sets were independently fitted with the electrolyte NRTL model and the parameters of Mock’s model were estimated for each binary system. These parameters were used to predict the ternary vapor–liquid equilibrium using the same model and the values so obtained agreed …
Heat capacities and volumes of suspensions in the presence of surfactants
2004
Abstract Density and heat capacity measurements of water–surfactant–silica ternary systems were carried out as functions of the silica and the surfactant concentrations at 298 K. From these properties, the apparent molar volume and heat capacity of the surfactant in a given water+silica mixture were evaluated. As well, the apparent specific volume and heat capacity of silica, at a given concentration, in the water+surfactant mixtures as functions of the surfactant concentration were calculated. Some surfactants (decyltrimethylammonium bromide, sodium octanoate, sodium decanoate, sodium dodecanoate, sodium decylsulfate, sodium perfluorooctanoate and N , N -dimethyldodecylamine- N -oxide) wer…
Using 1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium Trifluoromethanesulfonate as an Entrainer for the Extractive Distillation of Ethanol + Water Mixtures
2009
Isobaric vapor−liquid equilibria (VLE) for the ethanol + water + [emim][triflate] ternary system have been obtained at 100 kPa using a recirculating still. The ethanol + water binary system was also obtained. Furthermore, data were simulated with the Mock’s electrolyte nonrandom two-liquid (NRTL) model, using the solvent−solvent interaction parameters obtained from VLE data of the ethanol + water system and taking the solvent−ionic liquid (IL) interaction parameters for the other binary systems from previous works. The agreement between experimental and calculated data is very good, showing the predictive capacity of the model. The addition of [emim][triflate] produces the disappearance of …
Isobaric Vapor−Liquid Equilibria for 1-Propanol + Water + 1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium Trifluoromethanesulfonate at 100 kPa
2008
Isobaric vapor−liquid equilibria for the binary systems 1-propanol + water, 1-propanol + 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate ([emim][triflate]), and water + [emim][triflate] as well as the vapor−liquid equilibria for the 1-propanol + water + [emim][triflate] ternary system have been obtained at 100 kPa using a recirculating still. Electrolyte NRTL fitting parameters for the 1-propanol + water and water + [emim][triflate] systems were calculated. The measured ternary data were correlated using Mock’s electrolyte NRTL model which reproduces reasonably well the experimental values. The results show that the addition of [emim][triflate] to 1-propanol + water produced an import…
Ionic Liquids as Entrainers in Extractive Distillation: Isobaric Vapor−Liquid Equilibria for Acetone + Methanol + 1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium Triflu…
2006
Isobaric vapor−liquid equilibria for the binary systems acetone + methanol, acetone + 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate ([emim][triflate]), and methanol + [emim][triflate] as well as the vapor−liquid equilibrium for the acetone + methanol + [emim][triflate] ternary system have been obtained at 100 kPa using a recirculating still. The addition of the ionic liquid to the solvent mixture produced an important salting-out effect, and the azeotrope tended to disappear for small contents of ionic liquid. The experimental binary data sets were independently fitted with the electrolyte NRTL model, and the parameters of Mock's model were estimated for each binary system. These pa…
Isobaric vapor–liquid equilibria for 1-propanol + water + lithium chloride at 100 kPa
2004
Abstract Isobaric vapor–liquid equilibria for the ternary system 1-propanol+water+lithium chloride has been measured at 100 kPa using a recirculating still. The addition of lithium chloride to the solvent mixture produced an important salting-out effect over the alcohol and the azeotrope tended to be eliminated when the salt content increased, and two immiscible liquid phases were observed in a broad range of salt concentration. The experimental data sets were fitted with the electrolyte NRTL model and the parameters of Mock et al.’s model were estimated. This model has proved to be suitable to represent experimental data in the entire range of compositions. The effect of lithium chloride o…
