Surface Characterization Of Mixed-Mode Adsorbents Using Bet C-Constant Energy Scale, Dinah C. Lee
Surface Characterization Of Mixed-Mode Adsorbents Using Bet C-Constant Energy Scale, Dinah C. Lee
Seton Hall University Dissertations and Theses (ETDs)
Mixed-mode chromatography is a chromatographic method in which solutes interact with stationary phase through more than one interaction mode or mechanism. It is because of these multiple complex interactions, which makes it difficult to predict chromatographic behavior of analytes on Mixed-mode columns. In order to fully understand the retention mechanisms on Mixed-mode columns, the packing material properties must be well characterized since each characteristic may contribute to the overall chromatographic performance of the column. Many non-chromatographic and chromatographic techniques are available to characterize and compare Mixed-mode columns in terms of their interaction abilities, retentivity, surface chemistry, chemical properties and geometry. …

Preparation And Characterization Of Ruthenium-Gold Raman-Active Catalytic Surfaces, Thang Nguyen
Student Scholar Symposium Abstracts and Posters
Heterogeneous reactions at the gas-solid interface play a major role in many important industrial and environmental processes. These reactions typically rely on metal surfaces, to act as a catalyst between gas phase reactants and products. The catalysts lower the transition state barrier in the formation of the products. The mechanisms of reactions on catalysts is often not fully known due to the difficulty of observing the bond breakage and formation between gaseous molecules at the interface. One method in which the catalytic mechanism can be studied is by using Raman Spectroscopy. However, one drawback of this method is the fact …

The sunlight photochemistry of the organic chromophore pyruvic acid (PA) in water generates ketyl and acetyl radicals that contribute to the production and processing of atmospheric aerosols. The photochemical mechanism is highly sensitive to dissolved oxygen content, [O2(aq)], among other environmental conditions. Thus, herein we investigate the photolysis (λ ≥ 305 nm) of 10–200 mM PA at pH 1.0 in water covering the relevant range 0 ≤ [O2(aq)] ≤ 1.3 mM. The rapid consumption of dissolved oxygen by the intermediate photolytic radicals is monitored in real time with a dissolved oxygen electrode. …

Aerosols of variable composition, size, and shape are associated with public health concerns as well as with light-particle interactions that play a role in the energy balance of the atmosphere. Photochemical reactions of 2-oxocarboxylic acids in the aqueous phase are now known to contribute to the total secondary organic aerosol (SOA) budget. This work explores the cross reaction of glyoxylic acid (GA) and pyruvic acid (PA) in water, the two most abundant 2-oxocarboxylic acids in the atmosphere, under solar irradiation and dark thermal aging steps. During irradiation, PA and GA are excited and initiate proton-coupled electron transfer or hydrogen abstraction …
