Continuous fractionation of poly[(dimethylimino)decamethylene bromide] and molecular weight dependence of the glass transition
1995
30 g of the ionene poly[(dimethylimino)decamethylene bromide] were fractionated by a continuous counter-current extraction method (CPF) using ethylene glycol monoethyl ether as the solvent and diisopropyl ether as the non-solvent component. The efficiency of the separation was checked by viscometry and gel-permeation chromatography (GPC) measurements. Eight fractions of different molar mass were prepared for differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) experiments. With bromide as counter-ion, the glass transition temperature of the ionene increases from ca. 60 to 85°C as the intrinsic viscosity of this material (in 0,4 M aqueous solutions of KBr at 25°C) rises from ca. 14 to 22 mL/g. When bromi…
Physicochemical Interactions Between Aroma Compounds and Milk Proteins: Effect of Water and Protein Modification
1998
The physicochemical interactions between aroma compounds and sodium caseinate were studied by complementary techniques involving the protein in aqueous solution at 25 or 75 g/L (exponential dilution and equilibrium dialysis) or in a solid state (sorption and infrared spectroscopy). No retention of acetone, ethyl acetate, and 2-propanol in aqueous solutions was found by exponential dilution and equilibrium dialysis. Diacetyl and benzaldehyde interacted with sodium caseinate through strong and weak bonds, as found by equilibrium dialysis. The results obtained by sorption differ from those obtained in aqueous solutions. The compounds that sorbed best to sodium caseinate were acetone and ethyl …
Photocatalytic oxidation of toluene on irradiated TiO2: comparison of degradation performance in humidified air, in water and in water containing a z…
2003
Photocatalytic degradation of toluene was carried out both in gas–solid and in liquid–solid regime by using polycrystalline samples of TiO2 Merck and TiO2 Degussa P25. For the gas–solid regime two types of continuous photoreactor were used, a fixed bed one of cylindrical shape and a Carberry type photoreactor, both irradiated by near-UV light. The inlet reacting mixture consisted of air containing toluene and water vapours. The influence of the gas flow rate and the presence of water vapour on the photocatalytic process was investigated. CO2 and benzaldehyde were the toluene degradation products detected in the gas phase by using TiO2 Merck. In the presence of water vapour this catalyst exh…
Partial molar volumes of cobalt(II) chloride in ethanol + water at 298.15 K
1996
Densities of ethanol + water + cobalt(II) chloride mixtures have been measured with an oscillating-tube densimeter over a large range of concentrations of salt, at 298.15 K. From these densities, apparent molar volumes of the electrolyte in these mixtures have been calculated, and partial molar volumes at infinite dilution have been evaluated, at different concentrations of alcohol in the solvent.
Palladium(II) Complexes of Aminopolycarboxylic Ligands in Aqueous Solution
2011
Thebindingcapacityof fiveaminopolycarboxylicligands(APCs)(nitrilotriacetate(NTA),ethylenediamine-N,N,N 0 , N 0 -tetraacetate (EDTA), (S,S)-ethylenediamine-N,N 0 -disuccinic acid (S,S-EDDS), diethylenetriamine-N,N,N 0 ,N 00 ,N 00 -pentaacetate (DTPA), and triethylenetetraamine-N,N,N 0 ,N 00 ,N 000 ,N 000 -hexaacetate (TTHA)) toward the palladium(II) ion was studied by potentiometric titrations (ISE-H + electrode) in NaNO3 and in NaClO4/NaI (at different molar ratios) solutions and by spectrophotometric titrations (only in NaClO4), at I = 0.1 mol 3 kg � 1 and at T = 298.15 K. The high stability of Pd 2+ -complexones species inhibits the formation of sparingly soluble hydroxo species until pH …
Influence of Physical Treatments on the Potato Starch Granules Micro- and Ultrastructure
2012
In this research, potato starch was subjected to ph ysical treatments in order to analyse the changes at the micro- and ultrastructural levels an d finally to identify the optimal conditions for disintegrating the starch granules. For the analysi s, 10% aqueous solutions of potato starch were treated with a) microwaves; b) heat and c) heat com bined with ultrasounds. For each treatment type, the duration was 5 minutes, excepting the microwave treatment, where the time was 1 and 5 minutes; heat power varied from 180W to 900W at the tests with microwave, temperature varied between 65 o C and 100 o C in the thermal experiments and at the thermal ana lysis combined with ultrasounds temperature …
Complex formation equilibria between the acetazolamide ((5-acetamido-1,3,4-thiadiazole)-2-sulphonamide), a potent inhibitor of carbonicanhydrase, and…
1990
Abstract The stability constants for the equilibrium of complexation between acetazolamide and the divalent metal ions copper(II), nickel(II), zinc(II), and cobalt(II) have been determined by potentiometry both in water and in water-ethanol 50 vol. % solutions in 0.15 mol dm −3 NaNO 3 at 25°C. This mixed solvent has been used in order to obtain higher concentrations of acetazolamide in solution. For copper(II) and nickel(II), the binuclear species [Cu 2 (Acm) 2 ] and [Ni 2 (Acm) 3 ] 2− are detected in both solvents together with hydroxo species. The values of the stability constants are always higher in the mixed solvent than in water. For cobalt(II) and zinc(II), while in aqueous solution …

A new colourimetric and fluorimetric method for fluoride determination in aqueous samples based on the specific reaction between fluoride and silica has been developed and applied on real samples.
Crystallization of the CaCO3 mineral in the presence of the protein ovalbumin
2004
Abstract The kinetics of CaCO3 mineralization was studied by SANS in a 0.1 M aqueous CaCl2 solution in the presence of the protein ovalbumin found in chicken eggs. As the scattering from the protein and the mineral was observed within different Q regimes the evolution of the protein and mineral could be followed independently. It is observed that ovalbumin denaturates during the first 3 h and leads to a strong enhancement of mineralization.
Fractional dissolution of “solid” unsubstituted cellulose
2000
Activated cellulose (Solucell, DP w = 1400) was extracted stepwise at room temperatures by means of mixed solvents consisting of N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc) and LiCl, starting with a salt concentration of 1 wt.-% and increasing it in increments of 1 wt.-% up to 7 wt.-%. Upon the regeneration of the thus obtained cellulose fractions by pouring the solutions dropwise into a large surplus of water, part of the mixed solvent is occluded in the polymer. For that reason the cellulose samples were purified by redissolving them in Ni-tren and by a second precipitation. This process, however, leads to pronounced polymer degradation. For that reason we have used a spinning nozzle to press the extrac…
