Dielectriic Dispersion Measurements of Salt-Water Saturated Porous Glass Compared with Local Porosity Theory.

1992

AbstractA recent study [1] of the dielectric frequency response of a two component composite performed on a single specimen shows that local porosity theory LPT [2] represents a substantial improvement compared with other theories predicting the complex dielectric dispersion [3,4,5]. The purpose of the present work is to extend this investigation to a systematic study on several specimens with different compositions.

Surface-induced order and diffusion in 5CB liquid crystal confined to porous glass.

2001

Liquid crystals confined into small cavities are known to have a weak orientational order even above the nematic-isotropic transition temperature. The surface-induced order and molecular dynamics in this temperature range are studied with the aid of deuteron NMR spectra, spin relaxation times T(1) and T(2,) proton dipolar-correlation effect, and direct measurements of the effective diffusion coefficient for the liquid crystal 5CB confined to controlled-pore glasses. Our results show that an arrangement of molecules parallel to the wall is induced by local molecular interactions between the liquid crystal and solid, resulting in a weak and temperature independent surface order parameter, S(0…

Performance of porous silica layers in open-tubular columns for liquid chromatography

1989

Abstract Progress has been made in the preparation of porous silica layers in fused-silica capillaries for open-tubular liquid chromatography. The porous silica layer is prepared by (i) static coating of the silica precursor, polyethoxysiloxane (PES), followed by (ii) converting the PES film into a porous silica layer with ammonia solution. The porous silica layer can be easily modified by silane reagents commonly used in packed column high-performance liquid chromatography. The performance of the silica layer with the different phase systems was tested with polyaromatic hydrocarbons and derivatized amino acids as samples.

Molecular weights of Trogamid T® were determined by ultracentrifugation, light-scattering, osmometry and viscometry, molecular weight distributions by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and five different fractionation methods. The separation efficiency of GPC with N,N-dimethylformamide as solvent was tested with three different types of gels, crosslinked polystyrene, porous glass and crosslinked poly(vinyl acetate), the last one yielding the best results. Solution fractionations show better results than precipitation methods. All fractionations gave far too small apparent non-uniformities. After correction according to the non-uniformities of the fractions the results corresponded to thos…
