Effect Of Non-Ionic Reagent Adsorption On Zeta Potential Of Fine Coal Particles, Zeki̇ Aktaş Jan 2000

Effect Of Non-Ionic Reagent Adsorption On Zeta Potential Of Fine Coal Particles, Zeki̇ Aktaş

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The -5 \mum size fractions of two low rank British coals were used in zeta potential measurements. The electrophoretic behaviour was described by the Helmholtz-Smoluchowski equation. The non-ionic reagents used for the adsorption tests were of diacetone alcohol and 2-ethyl hexanol. Zeta potentials of both coals at various pHs were significantly different in the absence of the non-ionic reagents. Negligible variations were observed on the zeta potential curves of both coal particles in the presence of the non-ionic reagents used. It was concluded that the pH of coal particles in slurry is a principle parameter controlling the value of zeta …

Spectroscopic Studies Of Charge-Transfer Complexes Of 2,3-Dichloro-5,6-Dicyano-P-Benzo-Quinone, M. S. Subhani̇, N. K. Bhatti̇, M. Mohammad, A. Y. Khan

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Charge-transfer complexes of 2,3-dichloro-5, 6-dicyano-p-benzoquinone (DDQ) p-acetotoluidide, acetanilid, biphenyl and naphthalene were studied and their absorption spectra in solution were recorded. Absorption spectral data were obtained in CH_2Cl_2, CHCl_3, CCl_4 and mixture (CH_2Cl_2 + V) at different temperatures. Two charge-transfer bands were observed in each case. Spectral characterization of these complexes was determined and correlated with the ionization potential of the donor. Variation in thermodynamic parameters were also found to be due to change in donor and solvent.

Impedance Measurements Of Polyester-Coated Galvanised Mild Steel In 10xacid Rainwater After An Accelerated Wet-Dry Test, İlyas Dehri̇ Jan 2000

Impedance Measurements Of Polyester-Coated Galvanised Mild Steel In 10xacid Rainwater After An Accelerated Wet-Dry Test, İlyas Dehri̇

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The variation of defective polyester-coated performance with time in 10xacid rain solution was investigated using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Measurements were carried out on samples after an accelerated atmospheric corrosion test. The impedance diagrams (Nyquist plots) were simulated using the EQUIVCRT program which was elaborated by Boukamp and the semi-ellipse model which was developed by Erbil. It has been shown that the defective coating resistance changes with time for the samples subjected to acid rainwater. The corrosion rate of coated metal also changes with time.

Adsorption Of Some Heavy Metal Ions From Aqueous Solution By Activated Carbon And Comparison Of Percent Adsorption Results Of Activated Carbon With Those Of Some Other Adsorbents, İlhan Uzun, Fuat Güzel

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

In this study, removal of some heavy metals ions (Mn^{2+}, Fe^{2+}, Ni^{2+} and Cu^{2+}) from aqueous solution by adsorption was investigated. For this purpose, high-grade MnSO_4.H_2O, FeSO_4.7H_2O, NiSO_4.7H_2O and CuSO_4.5H_2O were used as heavy metal samples. The commercial activated carbon (Merck 2514), chitosan and agar were used as adsorbents. The pH of each solution was not controlled. This is because the net interaction between the adsorbent and the heavy metal could be disturbed by the buffer solution. Therefore, all experiments were carried out in a pH range from 5.3 to 5.5. The equilibrium adsorption contact times were determined for M …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Abstract. Nanogram quantities of nickel were removed from 1 L samples of dilute aqueous solutions by coflotation. A mixture of hydrated iron(III) oxide (Fe_2O_3\( \cdot \)xH_2O) and iron(III) hexamethylene-dithiocarbamate (Fe(HMDTC)_3) served as collectors. After flotation separation from the mother liquor, the solid sublate containing nickel traces was dissolved and the analyte was determined by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (ETAAS). All important parameters necessary for the successful collection of nickel were checked. The results of nickel ETAAS analysis in tap and spring waters were compared with inductively coupled plasma-atomic emis-sion spectrometric measurements (ICP-AES). The limit detection of nickel by the ETAAS …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

All solid-state contact PVC membrane electrodes for lead(II) ion were developed by using dimethylene bis(4-methylpiperidinedithiocarbamate) as neutral carrier and nitrophenyloctyl ether or dioctylsebacate as plasticizers. Response properties of the all solid-state contact PVC membrane electrode prepared with nitrophenyloctyl ether were better than those of the membrane electrode prepared with dioctylsebacate.
