In this work, we utilize a rich set of simulated and ground-based observational data in Tianjin, China to examine and compare the differences in aerosol acidity and composition predicted by three popular thermodynamic equilibrium models: ISORROPIA II, the ...
Etched Al of uniform quality is obtained at a const. rate by pptg. Al(OH)3 from the bath with simultaneous regeneration of the NaOH or KOH. The pptn. is promoted by addn. of Na2CO3. Filterability of the ppt. is improved by the addn. of complexing agents, e ...
We propose a new mechanism for the electroreduction of hydrogen in acidic media. The specific model and theoretical calculations are designed for the Pt(111) surface, because this is the only face that exhibits a clear first order phase transition. The bas ...
The Off-Gel™ technology is an isoelectric focusing (IEF) fractionation method which enables the purification of one or several proteins in a solution placed on an immobilised pH gradient (IPG) gel. The present thesis is devoted to its characterisation and ...
We discuss our recently proposed mechanism for the electro-oxidation/reduction on Pt(111) surfaces (J. Electroanal. Chem. 2002, 537, 7) in the presence of sulfuric acid. The bisulfate ion has a large dipole moment and is strongly adsorbed on the positive e ...
A new system combining a microreactor and a microcalorimetric chip was investigated. The small size of the microreactor channel permits maintaining isothermal conditions necessary for the kinetic characterization of highly exothermic reactions. These condi ...
2,2,6,6-Tetramethylpiperidine (tmpH) reacts smoothly with AlX3 (X = Cl, Br, I) and AlH2Cl.2THF to give the addn. compds. tmpH.AlX3 (X = Cl, Br, I) and tmpH.AlH2Cl, resp. These adducts of the secondary amine tmpH are stable and do not undergo intramol. elim ...
This paper reports some preliminary results from a study of the effect of elevated temperature curing on mortars and the phenomenon of delayed ettringite formation (DEF). Mortars made from cements with sulphate levels of 3%, 4%, and 5% and with 5% sulphate ...
In order to investigate the formation and the time evolution of Na oxidation states, a thin ayer 0 sodium was deposited on oxidized substrates and exposed to oxygen at 10(-9) Torr. In the Na 2p core-level spectrum, several chemically shifted components hav ...
A new approach combining electrostatic and covalent bonds was established for the formation of resistant capsules with long-term stability under physiol. conditions. Three kinds of interactions were generated in the same membrane: (1) electrostatic bonds b ...
