Improved Techniques For Washing Iron Blue Suspensions : Ii. The Preparation Of O, O'-Dichlorobenzidine From O-Chloronitrobenzene., Marvin L. Gernert

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

I. IMPROVED TECHNIQUES FOR WASHING IRON BLUE SUSPENSIONS

The investigation of several procedures for the speeding of the washing of iron blue suspensions to remove electrolytes is reported. The use of several techniques to coagulate blue particles in the colloidal range to cause more rapid settling was found to be of little value. A conventional Oliver filter and centrifugal clarifier were found to be unsatisfactory for clearing iron blue suspensions. Considerable advantage in washing by settling and decantation was obtained with the settling of the blue suspensions in relatively shallow vessels. A continuous washing procedure was developed whereby the blue …

The Surface Impregnation Of Wood : Ii. Use Characteristics Of Impregnated Wood : Iii. Investigations Of Resin Adhesives., John V. Birkel

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This thesis is divided into three parts: I. The Surface Impregnation of Wood; II. Use Characteristics of Impregnated wood; and III. Investigations of Resin Adhesives. The material presented in Part I is a continuation of previous experimentation that had established general methods for producing a hardened surface wood product. The methods involved parting of the wood fibers on the surface by a special serrating tool, followed by a surface impregnation and final curing. This section presents work carried on to determine the optimum conditions for serrating and subsequent impregnation. The effect of species on impregnation. and the impregnation of unfinished …

Ethylcellulose Lacquer Coatings For Polystyrene Plastics., Stuart V. Heil

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

An ethylcellulose lacquer system for both decorative and protective purposes was developed for use on polystyrene plastics. It was found that a one-coat lacquer containing only alcohol solvents produced the most satisfactory finish. Formulations were based on experimental work, conducted to determine the effect of the various lacquer components on the plastic. The results of a study of formulations on a two-coat system are presented.

A Graphical Solution For Batch Steam Distillation Of A Binary Mixture., Howard D. Carlson 1921-

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The theory for the graphical solution of batch steam distillation of a binary mixture is presented and illustrated. The results obtained from this graphical procedure are compared with actual experimental results. The comparison showed very close agreement between the graphical results and the experimental results. Three sets of experimental data are shown for benzene-bromobenzene mixtures and one complete set for benzene-toluene mixtures.
