Mixed Complex Compounds Of Palmitate, Oleate Calcium With Acetamide, Nicotinamide And Thiocarbamide, Ibadullaeva Tursunoy, Azizov Tokhir, Ibragimova Мavluda Dec 2020

Mixed Complex Compounds Of Palmitate, Oleate Calcium With Acetamide, Nicotinamide And Thiocarbamide, Ibadullaeva Tursunoy, Azizov Tokhir, Ibragimova Мavluda

CHEMISTRY AND CHEMICAL ENGINEERING

The purpose of the study was the synthesis and study of the structure of mixed complexes of palmitate, calcium oleate with acetamide, nicotinamide and thiocarbamide. The mixed coordination compounds of palmitate and calcium oleate were synthesized. The composition, individuality, thermal behavior, methods of coordinating the palmitate and oleate fragments, acetamide, nicotinamide and thiocarbamide molecules have been established. Comparison of the diffraction patterns of calcium palmitate and oleate, free ligand molecules and synthesized compounds showed the mismatch of the diffractograms, conseqently that the synthesized complexes have an individual crystal lattice different from the starting materials. The method of coordination of amide …


Manufacturing Of Carbon-Based Hybrid Nanocomposites With Engineered Functionalities Via Laser Ablation Synthesis In Solution (Lasis) Techniques, Erick Leonardo Ribeiro Aug 2020

Manufacturing Of Carbon-Based Hybrid Nanocomposites With Engineered Functionalities Via Laser Ablation Synthesis In Solution (Lasis) Techniques, Erick Leonardo Ribeiro

Doctoral Dissertations

Carbon-based composite materials have long been fabricated and extensively used in our daily lives. In the past decades, with rapid development of nanotechnology, these class of material have gained even more attention owing to their outstanding properties which directly results in their prospects to revolutionize technological development in many fields, ranging from medicine to electronics. Nevertheless, for certain applications, including electrochemical energy storage/conversion devices, the chemically inert nature of these materials creates obstacles and thus requires their coupling with other active species. This thesis explores the use of Laser Ablation Synthesis in Solution (LASiS) in tailoring promising strategies and pathways …


Investigation Of Oxidized Carbon Supported Au Catalysts Synthesized Via Strong Electrostatic Adsorption Of Au(En)2Cl3 For The Hydrochlorination Of Acetylene To Vinyl Chloride Monomer, Sean Reginald Noble Jul 2020

Investigation Of Oxidized Carbon Supported Au Catalysts Synthesized Via Strong Electrostatic Adsorption Of Au(En)2Cl3 For The Hydrochlorination Of Acetylene To Vinyl Chloride Monomer, Sean Reginald Noble

Theses and Dissertations

Over 20 million tons of vinyl chloride monomer (VCM) is produced every year using acetylene hydrochlorination using a supported mercuric chloride catalyst. During this process mercury is reduced and sublimes into the environment harming all living animals and humans, so carbon-supported Au catalysts have been developed in attempts to replace it. Various techniques have been used to make these catalysts including several variations of dry impregnation. In this study we investigate the ability of Strong Electrostatic Adsorption (SEA) of Au(en)2Cl3 onto various supports to demonstrate the ability to rationally and consistently synthesize gold catalysts with ultra-small particle …


Designing Metal-Organic Frameworks For Natural Gas Storage And Delivery, Labeeb Ali Jun 2020

Designing Metal-Organic Frameworks For Natural Gas Storage And Delivery, Labeeb Ali

Chemical and Petroleum Engineering Theses

Natural gas is major resource in UAE, constitute about 90% methane and as compared to other fossil fuels, it is more environmentally friendly. Energy demand from natural gas can be projected to exceed two hundred exajoules per year in 2040. In the UAE, many natural gas filling stations are already built for utilizing natural gas as a vehicle transportation fuel where these materials have potential applications to store and deliver this fuel. This research aims to study various kinds of Metal-Organic Frameworks, and to investigate adsorption properties for the storage of natural gas and its delivery. MOFs possess porous material …


Steady Algorithms For Synthesis Of Multidimensional Controlling Systems With Incomplete Information About The Object State, Uktam Farkhodovich Mamirov Feb 2020

Steady Algorithms For Synthesis Of Multidimensional Controlling Systems With Incomplete Information About The Object State, Uktam Farkhodovich Mamirov

Chemical Technology, Control and Management

In this paper, questions of forming and creation of steady synthesis algorithms of multidimensional controlling systems at incomplete information on object status are considered. It is shown that the matrix of feedback coupling on a status at the complete information is not determined. The different algorithms of steady calculation of a matrix pseudo-inverse to the matrix of outputs using these or those decomposition of matrixes are analyzed. Algorithms of iterative specification of a required solution of "skeletal" decomposition are given. The given expressions allow synthesizing the simplified computing procedures of synthesis of multidimensional controlling systems at incomplete information on object …


Review Of Established And Emergent Methods For The Production Of C4 Olefins, James Matthew Koval Jan 2020

Review Of Established And Emergent Methods For The Production Of C4 Olefins, James Matthew Koval

Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports

Current production of C4 olefins is dominated by naphtha cracking and butane dehydrogenation, but significant research interest is developing in alternate feedstocks due to an abundance of inexpensive natural gas and bioethanol. The current C4 olefin production methods are costly, make use of already-depleted petroleum resources, and are often hazardous to workers, which forms the impetus for investigation into alternative methods and assessment of their viability as a future means of olefin production. Methods of natural gas conversion to higher order hydrocarbons are discussed, including Fischer-Tropsch synthesis and oxidative methane coupling, each of which could form the first …
