Aliphatic polyesters receive increasing attention over the last years driven by their application as biodegradable substitutes for conventional commodity thermoplastics and applications in the biomedical field, where amongst the family of biodegradable pol ...
Tuning of effective band gaps at insulator surfaces by adsorbed molecules is of fundamental interest but also technologically relevant for contact charging induced by adsorbed molecules like hydroxybenzoic acids. Our studies by density functional theory of ...
Models of amorphous (HfO2)x(SiO2)(1), for varying hafnium, content x are generated by ab initio molecular dynamics. The structural properties are analyzed in terms of pair distribution functions from which typical bond lengths and coordination numbers are ...
Oxidation of the antimicrobial agent triclosan by aqueous ozone (O-3) was investigated to determine associated reaction kinetics, reaction site(s), and consequent changes in antibacterial activity of triclosan. Specific second-order rate constants, k(O3), ...
The ability of ferrate (Fe(Vl)) to oxidize phenolic endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) and phenols during water treatment was examined by determining the apparent second-order rate constants (k(app)) for the reaction of Fe(VI) with selected environmenta ...
The reactivity of phenolic compounds can be drastically affected by the electronic nature of substituents and by their positions in the aromatic ring. In this work, structure effect on the photoreactivity via TiO2 catalysis is studied using several substit ...
The photo-Fenton process (Fe-2+,Fe-3+/H2O2/hv) is known to degrade aqueous organic compounds at acidic pHs. Nevertheless, recent studies have shown that this process also occurs at circumneutral pHs. Dihydroxybenzene isomers (i.e., resorcinol, hydroquinone ...
The objective of this study was to unravel the structural properties responsible for the partitioning of solutes in o‐nitrophenyl octyl ether (o‐NPOE)/H2O, a new solvent system for the determination of the partition coefficients of ions. A set of 88 compou ...
Novel and environmentally benign Bronsted acidic ionic liqs. with SO3-H functionality were prepd. using N-methylimidazole, pyridine, triethylamine and 1,4-butanesultone as the source chems. The prepd. ionic liq. catalysts were characterized by NMR and thei ...
The Fenton and photo-Fenton detoxification of non-biodegradable chemical pollution in water was investigated under simulated UV light in the laboratory and under direct sunlight in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso. The laboratory experiments enable one to make a ...
