The Effect Of Weak Acid On The Stability Of Burnishing Ink, Marcella Wamser Feb 1946

The Effect Of Weak Acid On The Stability Of Burnishing Ink, Marcella Wamser

Bachelors’ Theses

By definition we find "An emulsion being a system containing two liquid phases, one of which is dispersed as globules in the other. That liquid which is broken up into globules is termed the dispersed phase, whilst the liquid surrounding the globules is known as the continuous phase or dispersing medium". If a small portion of benzene is poured into a large volume of water, it can be emulsified by simply shaking or agitating. Again, chloroform and water with shaking gives an emulsion.

The Influence Of Gelatin On The Ph Of Acids And Bases, Beverly Terwilliger May 1942

The Influence Of Gelatin On The Ph Of Acids And Bases, Beverly Terwilliger

Bachelors’ Theses

The purpose of this thesis is to determine how gelatin behaves in the presence of various acids and alkalis. It is possible to titrate gelatins with acids and bases and thereby determine the relation of the pH of the solution to the amounts of acid or base combined with the gelatin. If the results are plotted, a titration curve is obtained, the value of which gives the acid and base combining properties of a certain gelatin.

A Study Of The Proteolytic Activity Of The Enzyme Papain On Various Brands Of Gelatine, Mary Christella Zeszuto Aug 1939

A Study Of The Proteolytic Activity Of The Enzyme Papain On Various Brands Of Gelatine, Mary Christella Zeszuto

Bachelors’ Theses

The measurement of the ·viscosity of liquids by means of capillary tubes has been carried on for more than a hundred years. It was not, however, until 1846 that the results of Poiseuille's research were given to the public. For the comprehensive study he made of the problem, the concept of the laws controlling viscometry flow is attributed to him. The study of the same problem. was continued by many others in subsequent years. Their results, in general, verify the principles given by Poiseuille, but corrections attributed to conditions other than viscous flow have been suggested. These involve drainage, liquid …

A Study Of The Decomposition Potentials Of A Commercial Gluconic Acid Bath, Roman L. Pozorski May 1936

A Study Of The Decomposition Potentials Of A Commercial Gluconic Acid Bath, Roman L. Pozorski

Bachelors’ Theses

The study of electrochemistry is not only fascinating and worthwhile, but essential to the student of chemistry in the understanding of many theories and chemical phenomena. Though electrochemistry is still in its infancy, numerous substances are prepared electrolytically in industry. It is reported that about 15% of all the chemical goods manufactured are prepared by electrochemical industries. Of the various types of studies, in electrochemistry, the one which appears to be most appealing is the analysis of chemical reaction sin which electrochemical methods are used. The determination of decomposition potentials is one of these methods. A knowledge of decomposition values …

A Comparison Of The Caffeine Content Of Various Coffees, Emil J. Petrusek May 1935

A Comparison Of The Caffeine Content Of Various Coffees, Emil J. Petrusek

Bachelors’ Theses

Coffee must be rated as one of the most important commodities in the commercial world due to the statistics or output and consumption. There are various brands and kinds of coffee produced by the different growers and roasters. Now to sell the brands, the various concerns base their advertising upon the flavor and price of the coffee. It is a fact that the flavor of coffee is in some way affected by the caffeine present. One popular brand is advertised as decaffeinated, that is, the caffeine has been removed. Confronted with these facts, it occurred to the author to test …

The Development Of Colloid Chemistry, Oscar A. Bouise Jun 1930

The Development Of Colloid Chemistry, Oscar A. Bouise

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

At first, it was as a blur, that had shrouded a great mystery for ages and ages, until some seventy odd years ago. Then came Thomas Graham, who could not satisfy himself with merely viewing a blur as a blur. Being a scientist, he applied his mind experimentally, which the keen precision of any of the eminent astronomers using a telescope, and viewed more clearly this mist which hovered above the horizon.

A Study Of The Ph Of Sodium Citrate In Relation To Blood Transfusion, Roman Edward Galasinski Jun 1927

A Study Of The Ph Of Sodium Citrate In Relation To Blood Transfusion, Roman Edward Galasinski

Bachelors’ Theses

Blood transfusion, within recent years, has become a subject of paramount therapeutic importance. A few years back the technique of blood transfusion was so difficult that there were only a relatively few who possessed the requisite skill to perform the operation and then not always successfully. But since the year 1907 the evolution and perfection of blood transfusion procedures has been so steady and immense that, as a therapeutic measure, it has come into general use in the treatment of various acute and chronic lesions.
