Hydrolysis and hydrogenation of [RhCl(tppms)(3)] (1) and trans-[RhCl(CO)(tppms(2)] (2) was studied in aqueous solutions in a wide pH range (2 < pH < 11) in the presence of excess TPPMS (3 -diphenylphosphinyl-benzenesulfonic acid sodium salt). In acidic sol ...
Here we report on two field experiments from Lake Alpnach (surface area: 4.8 km(2); maximum depth: 34 m) that were designed to study the process of boundary mixing and to estimate its efficiency, the ratio between the turbulent kinetic energy converted int ...
Ozone prodn. in 5M H2SO4 with Ti/IrO2/SnO2 - Sb2O5 electrodes was studied. Electrodes were prepd. at 550 Deg by spray pyrolysis of a soln. of precursors contg. tin and antimony chlorides. The aim of this work was to elucidate the mechanism of activation an ...
An introduction to the Car-Parrinello (CP) method is given from the point of view of classical molecular dynamics. Here, a formulation is described that uses Vanderbilt's ultrasoft pseudopotentials, which yield generalized Kohn-Sham equations containing ov ...
Laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) was used to measure distributions of the siderophile elements P, V. Cr, Fe, Co, Ni, Mo, Ru, Rh, Pd, W, Re, Os, Ir, and Pt in metal grains in the metal-rich chondrite QUE94411 with a sp ...
Water-soluble rhodium(I)- and ruthenium(II)tertiary phosphine complexes with meta-mono-sulphonated triphenylphosphine (TPPMS) and 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane (PTA) as ligands catalyze the hydrogenation of aqueous HCO3- to HCO2- under mild conditions. ...
Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O-3 (PMN) alkoxide precursor solutions were synthesized and used to prepare thin layers on TiO2/Pt/TiO2/SiO2/Si substrates by spin coating. Many parameters like homogeneity of the solution and appropriate processing must be controlled to mini ...
The concept of nonfaradaic electrochem. modification of catalytic activity (NEMCA) was applied for the in situ control of catalytic activity of a rhodium film deposited on YSZ (yttria stabilized zirconia) solid electrolyte towards redn. of 1000 ppm NO by 1 ...
The effects of niobium doping on the hysteresis parameters of sol-gel Pb-1.1-x/2(Zr0.53Ti0.47)(1-x)NbxO3 (0 < x < 0.05) have been reported fbr two sets of films with analogous grain size and degree of (111) texture but with different surface microstructure ...
Rydberg series obsd. in the excitation spectra of Cl and H atoms isolated in the rare gas (Rg) crystals Kr and Xe are assocd. with the charge transfer species Cl-Rg+ and H-Rg+. The progressions originate from hole states of Rg+ which converge to the top of ...
