Thermodynamic Behavior of Non-Ionic Tri-block Copolymers in Water at Three Temperatures
2006
Apparent molar volumes (V Φ) of aqueous solutions of some copolymers, based on ethylene oxide (EO) and propylene oxide (PO) units, were determined as functions of concentration at three temperatures. Viscosity measurements were also carried out on some of these systems. The effects studied include how the molecular architecture and the molecular weight affect the aggregation of the copolymer, keeping constant the EO/PO ratio. Modeling of the volumetric data yielded the partial molar volume of the copolymer in the standard (V°) and the aggregated (V M) states, as well as the equilibrium constant for micellization and the aggregation number. Analysis of the viscosity data supported the insigh…
Mass action model for solute distribution between water and micelles. Partial molar volumes of butanol and pentanol in dodecyl surfactant solutions
1986
The densities of 1-butanol and 1-pentanol were measured in aqueous solutions of dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide and dodecyldimethylamine oxide and the partial molar volumes at infinite dilution of the alcohols in aqueous surfactants solutions were obtained. The observed trends of this quantity as a function of the surfactant concentration were rationalized using a mass-action model for the alcohol distribution between the aqueous and the micellar phase. At the same time, the model was revised to account for the alcohol effect on the surfactant micellization equilibrium. The partial molar volume of alcohols in the aqueous and in the micellar phases and the ratios between the binding constan…
Thermodynamic properties of alcohols in a micellar phase. Binding constants and partial molar volumes of pentanol in sodium dodecylsulfate micelles a…
1984
Densities of the ternary system water-sodium dodecylsulfate (NaDS)-pentanol and of the binary systems butanol-octane and pentanol-octane were measured at 15, 25, and 35 °C. The apparent molar volume of pentanol in the ternary system was analyzed using a mass-action model for the alcohol distribution in micellar solutions. The partial molar volume of alcohol bound to the micelles and the ratio between the binding constant and the aggregation number of the surfactant are calculated. The partial molar volume binding constant, is discussed in terms of solubilization sites of the alcohol in the micelles whereas the binding constant is compared with that derived from the Nernstian partition const…
Personal goals and personality traits among young adults: Genetic and environmental effects
2012
To assess genetic and environmental contributions to personal goals, 1279 twins aged 20-26 filled in Personal Project Analysis and NEO-FFI inventories. Personal goals relating to education, the respondent's own family, friends, property, travel and self showed primarily genetic and unique environmental effects, whereas goals related to parents and relatives showed both shared and unique environmental effects. The variation in goals related to health, work, hobbies and life philosophy was attributable to non-shared environmental effects. Openness to experience and personal goals related to family, education and property shared a significant amount of genetic influence. The same was true for …
On monadic quantale algebras: basic properties and representation theorems
2010
Motivated by the concept of quantifier (in the sense of P. Halmos) on different algebraic structures (Boolean algebras, Heyting algebras, MV-algebras, orthomodular lattices, bounded distributive lattices) and the resulting notion of monadic algebra, the paper introduces the concept of a monadic quantale algebra, considers its properties and provides several representation theorems for the new structures.
Obstruction theory in action accessible categories
2013
Abstract We show that, in semi-abelian action accessible categories (such as the categories of groups, Lie algebras, rings, associative algebras and Poisson algebras), the obstruction to the existence of extensions is classified by the second cohomology group in the sense of Bourn. Moreover, we describe explicitly the obstruction to the existence of extensions in the case of Leibniz algebras, comparing Bourn cohomology with Loday–Pirashvili cohomology of Leibniz algebras.

On Schunck Classes of Finite Groups with Cover and Avoidance Property on Abelian Chief Factors
2006
The main aim of this article is to obtain the characterization of local Schunck classes of finite groups whose projectors have the cover and avoidance property on Abelian chief factors.
