Neutron-diffraction, magnetic-susceptibility, specific-heat, and Mössbauer-effect studies of NaFeP2O7 reveal that it is a normal Heisenberg isotropic three-dimensional antiferromagnetic material with a Néel temperature of 29.0 K. NaFeP2O7 has the monoclinic P21/c magnetic space group, which is the same as the nuclear crystallographic space group. The easy axis of magnetization lies in the monoclinic ac plane at an angle of 21.0° from the c axis. The specific-heat measurements reveal a λ-type anomaly at 28.7(2) K. A molecular-field model analysis indicates that the intrasublattice magnetic exchange coupling Jaa=Jbb=-0.37 cm-1, whereas …

Polar-Liquid, Derivatized Cyclodextrin Stationary Phases For The Capillary Gas Chromatography Separation Of Enantiomers, Daniel W. Armstrong, Weiyong Li, Chau Dung Chang, Josef Pitha

Chemistry Faculty Research & Creative Works

A new class of hydrophilic, relatively polar liquid, cyclodextrin (CD) derivatives have been used as highly selective chiral stationary phases (CSPs) for capillary gas chromatography (GC). Several possible requirements for liquidity In CD derivatives are discussed. O-(S)-2-Hydroxypropyl derivatives of α-, β-, and γ-cyclodextrlns were synthesized, exclusively characterized, permethylated, and evaluated for enantloselectlvity. Seventy pairs of enantiomers were resolved. They represent a wide variety of structural types and classes of compounds including chlral alkyl amines, amino alcohols, epoxides, pyrans, furans, sugars, dlols, esters, ketones, bicyclic compounds, alcohols, and so on. Many of these compounds were not aromatic and cannot be resolved …

Plasma Surface Treatment On Nylon Fabrics By Fluorocarbon Compounds, Yu Iriyama, Takeshi Yasuda, D. L. Cho, H. Yasuda Jan 1990

Plasma Surface Treatment On Nylon Fabrics By Fluorocarbon Compounds, Yu Iriyama, Takeshi Yasuda, D. L. Cho, H. Yasuda

Nylon fabrics were treated by low temperature fluorocarbon plasmas. All of the fluorocarbon plasmas applied altered the surface of nylon fabrics to be hydrophobic and water‐repellent. The durability of hydrophobicity and water repellency was examined by measurements of the water contact angle, the water droplet rolling‐off angle, and the breakthrough water pressure after plasma‐treated fabrics were washed. It was found that the structure of starting fluorocarbon and the plasma energy input were important factors in the durability. After washing, surface dynamics were investigated on different drying conditions. It was found that chemical composition and water repellency were dependent on drying …


Derivatized Cyclodextrins For Normal-Phase Liquid Chromatographic Separation Of Enantiorners, Daniel W. Armstrong, San Chun Chang, Apryll M. Stalcup, Martha L. Hilton, Jo Dee Duncan, James R. Faulkner Jan 1990

Several different derivatized β-cyclodextrins were synthesized and used as chiral stationary phases in normal-phase liquid chromatography. The multiply substituted derivatives were made with acetic anhydride, (R)-and (S)-1-(1-naphthyl) ethyl isocyanate, 2, 6-dimethylphenyl isocyanate, and p-toluoyl chloride. The first successful cyclodextrln-based, normal-phase separation of enantiomers was accomplished on these derivative phases. In contrast to chiral separations on the native β-cyclodextrin stationary phase, the enantiomeric separation mechanism on these new phases is not thought to be dependent on inclusion complexation. The similarities and differences between the derivatized cyclodextrin stationary phases and the cellulosic stationary phases are discussed. © 1990, American Chemical Society. All …


Relevance Of Enantiomeric Separations In Food And Beverage Analyses, Daniel W. Armstrong, Chau Dung Chang, Wei Yong Li Jan 1990

Relevance Of Enantiomeric Separations In Food And Beverage Analyses, Daniel W. Armstrong, Chau Dung Chang, Wei Yong Li

Chemistry Faculty Research & Creative Works

A series of new derivatized cyclodextrins have been developed for use as chiral stationary phases in capillary gas chromatography. As a result, a large number of the enantiomeric components in food and beverage products can be resolved relatively quickly and easily. The study focuses on compounds other than amino acids (e.g., malic acid, lactic acid, tartaric acid, esters, alcohols, lactone flavors or fragrances, and so on). The ability to separate and quantitate enantiomers at low levels should be useful for detecting adulterated products, for evaluating fermentation processes, and for the accurate characterization of enantiomeric flavor components, growth regulators, pesticides, and …


Coatings And Surface Modification By Methane Plasma Polymerization, Chung‐Peng ‐P Ho, H. Yasuda Jan 1990

Coatings And Surface Modification By Methane Plasma Polymerization, Chung‐Peng ‐P Ho, H. Yasuda

Chemistry Faculty Research & Creative Works

Polymers formed from plasma‐polymerized methane were employed to modify the surface properties of silicone rubber membrane. Polymers were evaluated based on the energy input parameter W/FM, where W is the discharge power, F is the monomer flow rate, and M is the molecular weight of the monomer. Dealing with the characteristics of plasma polymerization and the deposited polymer film, the effect of pumping rate on deposition rate and the coating thickness, surface energy, and gas permeabilities of methane‐plasma‐polymer‐coated silicone rubber membrane were investigated in three plasma regions. Because more reactive species are expelled at high pumping rates, the monomer‐deficient region …

Small-angle neutron scattering is used to investigate tetradecyl pyridinium bromide/pentanol/heptane/heavy water microemulsions in the water-in-oil (W/O) microemulsion phase diagram region. The heavy water content is increased while the other components (surfactant, cosurfactant, hydrocarbon) are kept constant. With use of a simple model assuming spherical micelles interacting with a hard-sphere potential (Percus-Yevick model), aggregate sizes and packing fractions have been extracted and found to agree with values determined from the mixing conditions. These experiments clearly show the transition from the single-particle (heavy water + Stern layer droplet) scattering regime at low water concentration to the mixed single/interdroplet scattering regime when the …
