Structure and Thermodynamics of Binary Mixtures (Solutions)
2014
The concepts of chapter 2 are generalized to binary liquid mixtures (solutions). With the help of the concept of number and concentration fluctuations contact to the thermodynamics of solutions and physical chemistry of solutions is made. The perturbative RPA is shown to be equivalent to Flory’s theory of regular solutions. The phase diagrams of regular solutions and metal-salt solutions are discussed and explained in terms of the theories.
Thermodynamic predictions of the formation of chalcogenide glasses
1985
The understanding of glass forming ability requires quantitative information on the stable and metastable phase equilibria of binary and multicomponent systems, particularly as a function of composition and temperature. This paper discusses the success of the use of Gibbs free energy curves for the supercooled liquid relative to the stable crystalline phases to describe glass forming ability. Applications are reported for the systems GeSe2-Se, Sb2Se3-Se and GeSe2-Sb2Se3 for which experimental minimal quenching rates are available. A strongly associated regular solution model for the liquid phase gives a predicted behaviour consistent with experimental data. The method is intended to apply t…
Nonazeotropy in the System Methyl Ethanoate + 1,2-Epoxybutane
1997
New vapor−liquid equilibrium data for the binary system methyl ethanoate + 1,2-epoxybutane are reported at 35 and 101.3 kPa and at 298.15 K. It is shown that no azeotropes are present in the system, in disagreement with data reported by others who claim that two azeotropes are present at 298.15 K. We claim that previously reported data are in error because of impurities in the reagents and experimental errors. According to our results, the system methyl ethanoate + 1,2-epoxybutane behaves like a regular solution and its vapor phase can be considered practically ideal so that it cannot fulfill the necessary conditions for multiple azeotropy. The data were satisfactorily correlated using the …
Structural, magnetic and calorimetric studies of a crystalline phase of the spin crossover compound [Fe(tzpy)2(NCSe)2]
2013
The compound [Fe(tzpy)2(NCSe)2] (tzpy = 3-(2-pyridyl)-[1,2,3]triazolo[1,5-a]pyridine)) has been synthesized and its crystal structure, magnetic behavior and calorimetric properties investigated. Samples constituted of single crystals of [Fe(tzpy)2(NCSe) 2] display a relatively cooperative spin-state change centered at T1/2 ¿ 251.7 K with a hysteresis loop 3.5 K wide. The average enthalpy (¿H) and entropy (¿S) changes upon the spin crossover behavior (SCO) obtained from DSC measurements are 11.1 ± 0.4 kJ mol -1 and 44.5 ± 3 J K-1 mol-1, respectively. The magnetic and calorimetric data have been satisfactorily simulated using the mean-field regular solution model (Slichter-Drickamer) and the …
Structure of Polymers
2014
The structure and thermodynamics of polymers are discussed both with an adapted version of Flory’s regular solution theory and the concept of scaling and random walks. The salient properties of polymers like segregation and elasticity are discussed in terms of these concept. The Flory-Stockmayer theory of gelation is introduced and related to the percolation concept.
