Effect of alkali hydroxide on calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H)

Karen Scrivener, Barbara Lothenbach, Yu Yan, Émilie Michèle L'Hôpital, Sheng-Yu Yang

This paper investigates the effect of KOH and NaOH on C-S-H structure and solubility. Both KOH and NaOH have a similar effect, they increase pH values and silicon concentrations, and decrease calcium concentrations. At higher alkali hydroxide concentration ...

Detailed Analysis of Estimated pH, Activity Coefficients, and Ion Concentrations between the Three Aerosol Thermodynamic Models

Athanasios Nenes, Yan Feng

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 ...

Influence of minor additions on Icosahedral Short-Range Order (ISRO) and its consequences on nucleation and solidification growth kinetics in fcc alloys

Michel Rappaz

The present contribution reviews the recent progress related to the influence of Icosahedral Short-Range Order (ISRO) and icosahedral Quasicrystals (i-QC) formation on the solidification of fcc alloys through minor solute element additions. From intensive ...

Microhydration of Dibenzo-18-Crown-6 Complexes with K+, Rb+, and Cs+ Investigated by Cold UV and IR Spectroscopy in the Gas Phase

Thomas Rizzo, Yoshiya Inokuchi

In this Article, we examine the hydration structure of dibenzo-18-crown-6 (DB18C6) complexes with K+, Rb+, and Cs+ ion in the gas phase. We measure well-resolved UV photodissociation (UVPD) spectra of K+·DB18C6·(H2O)n, Rb+·DB18C6·(H2O)n, and Cs+·DB18C6·(H2 ...

Capture and Release of CO2 in Monoethanolamine Aqueous Solutions: New Insights from First-Principles Reaction Dynamics

Wanda Andreoni, Changru Ma, Fabio Pietrucci

Aqueous,monoethanolamine (MEA) solution is commonly used for post-combustion carbon capture via chemical absorption. Extensive research has been carried out to characterize both uptake and release of carbon dioxide (CO2), with the aim of improving process ...

Acid-base properties of the N3 ruthenium(II) solar cell sensitizer: a combined experimental and computational analysis

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Filippo de Angelis

We report a combined spectro-photometric and computational investigation of the acid-base equilibria of the N3 solar cell sensitizer [Ru(dcbpyH(2))(2)(NCS)(2)] (dcbpyH(2) = 4,4'-dicarboxyl-2,2' bipyridine) in aqueous/ethanol solutions. The absorption spect ...

Ab initio molecular dynamics of liquid hydrogen chloride

Alfredo Pasquarello

We carried out an ab initio molecular dynamics simulation of liquid hydrogen. chloride (l-HCl) at a temperature of 313 K. Comparison with inelastic neutron scattering data shows that the simulation achieves an overall good description of the structural cor ...
