PEO/CHCl3. Crystallinity of the Polymer and Vapor Pressure of the Solvent. Equilibrium and Nonequilibrium Phenomena
2003
Vapor pressures were measured for the system CHCl3/PEO 1000 (PEO stands for poly(ethylene oxide) and 1000 for Mw in kg/mol) at 25 °C as a function of the weight fraction w of the polymer by means of a combination of headspace sampling and gas chromatography. The establishment of thermodynamic equilibria was assisted by employing thin polymer films. The degrees of crystallinity α of the pure PEO and of the solid polymer contained in the mixtures were determined via DSC. An analogous degree of polymer insolubility β was calculated from the vapor pressures measured in this composition range. The experiments demonstrate that both quantities and their concentration dependence are markedly affect…
Preferential evaporation of precipitants from polymer solutions in mixed solvents
2000
Partial vapor pressures were measured for the volatiles of solutions of polysulfone or polyethersulfone in mixtures of N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF, solvent) and water or acetone (precipitants) by means of headspace gas chromatography. The results demonstrate that the enrichment of water in the gas phase increases exponentially with rising polymer concentration, in contrast to that of acetone which remains constant. The reinforced expulsion of water resulting from the presence of polymers is theoretically conceivable and should be useful in the field of separation techniques.
Evidence of ternary interaction parameters for polymer solutions in mixed solvents from headspace-gas chromatography
2000
Partial vapor pressures of the volatiles have been measured for four solvent/precipitant/polymer systems at different temperatures. The high molecular weight compounds were polysulfone or polyethersulfone and the mixed solvent was either DMF/acetone or DMF/water. Systems containing the very powerful precipitant water exhibit a special phenomenon: Upon the addition of polymer to a mixed solvent of constant composition the partial vapor pressure of water increases by a factor of more than two before it falls to zero as the volume fraction of the polymer approaches unity. This particular situation cannot be modeled using binary interaction parameters only, in contrast to the results obtained w…
Isobaric Vapor−Liquid Equilibria for Binary and Ternary Mixtures of Ethanol and 2-Propanol with 2-Butanone and Butyl Propionate at 101.3 kPa
2009
This paper presents vapor−liquid equilibrium (VLE) data at 101.3 kPa for the ternary systems ethanol + 2-butanone + butyl propionate and 2-propanol + 2-butanone + butyl propionate and some of their...
Temperature influence on moisture transfer through synthetic films
2000
Abstract Water transfer through films was investigated as a function of the temperature, the physical state of water and the relative humidity (RH) difference. The films were two synthetic packagings: a hydrophobic one, the polyethylene, a hydrophilic one, the cellophane. Some phenomena which could occur at low temperatures were discussed, such as polymer structure change due to mechanical relaxation or network plasticisation and modification of the penetrant diffusion at its melting temperature. But it seems that the comparison of water permeabilities (WPs) with temperature, especially at subzero temperatures, requires the correction of their calculation with the difference of water chemic…
Guest-Induced Folding and Self-Assembly of Conformationally Adaptive Macrocycles into Nanosheets and Nanotubes
2017
A conformationally adaptive macrocycle is presented, namely zorb[4]arene, which exists in multiple conformations in the uncomplexed state. The binding cavity of zorb[4]arene is concealed, either due to a collapsed conformation or by self-inclusion. The zorb[4]arene with long alkyl chains manifests itself with surprisingly low melting point and thus exist as an oil at room temperature. Binding of a guest molecule induces the folding and conformational rigidity of zorb[4]arene and leads to well-defined three-dimensional structures, which can further self-assemble into nanosheets or nanotubes upon solvent evaporation, depending on guest molecules and the conformations they can induce.
Experimental and estimated saturated vapour pressures of aroma compounds
1999
Abstract The saturated vapour pressure of d-linalool, 2-nonanone, d-limonene and isoamyl acetate were measured using a static method at different temperatures from 223 to 468 K. From the experimental values, Antoine's constants were determined to enable the calculations of the saturated vapour pressures at a given temperature. The saturated vapour pressure of the four aroma compounds at 298 K were respectively 27, 59, 200 and 733 Pa. These results were compared with those obtained using different estimation methods (Antoine–Grain, Watson, Lee–Kesler, Gomez–Thodos, Grain and Mackay). Gomez–Thodos' model was found to be the most accurate method for the estimation of the saturated vapour press…
Synthesis and thermal decomposition studies of homo- and heteroleptic tin(iv) thiolates and dithiocarbamates: molecular precursors for tin sulfides
2002
The syntheses and X-ray structures of novel heteroleptic thiolate/dithiocarbamate derivatives (Et2NCS2)2(RS)2Sn (R = Cy, CH2CF3) have been examined and their thermal decompositions compared with those of selected tin(II) and tin(IV) dithiocarbamates. The heteroleptic species decompose to SnS by initial elimination of RSSR to afford (Et2NCS2)2Sn and subsequent loss of [Et2NC(S)]2S. In contrast, (Et2NCS2)4Sn decomposes via [(Et2NCS2)2SnS]2, whose structure has been determined, and finally to SnS2 by sequential elimination of [Et2NC(S)]2S. The two families of compounds, (R2NCS2)4Sn and (Et2NCS2)2(RS)2Sn, thus provide single-source materials for bulk SnS2 and SnS, respectively, by virtue of the…
Isobaric Vapor−Liquid Equilibrium for Ethanol + Water + Strontium Nitrate
1996
Isobaric vapor−liquid equilibrium for ethanol (1) + water (2) + potassium nitrate (3) at various concentrations of salt and with ethanol mole fractions from 0 to 0.642 has been measured at 100.0 kPa. The results were correlated by assuming that the salt was in ionic form and it was associated only with the water.
Isobaric vapor-liquid equilibria for binary systems composed of octane, decane, and dodecane at 20 kPa
1996
Vapor−liquid equilibria were measured for binary systems of octane + decane, decane + dodecane, and octane + dodecane at 20.00 kPa using a recirculating still. The results are thermodynamically consistent according to the point-to-point consistency test, and deviation from ideal behavior is small for all systems.
