Selective flocculation studies were conducted using different polymers such as starch amylopectin(AP), poly acrylic acid(PAA), and a graft copolymer(AP-g-PAA). The obtained results were analyzed; they indicate the enhancement of the iron ore grade from 58.49% to 67.52% using AP-g-PAA with a recovery of 95.08%. In addition, 64.45% Fe with a recovery of 88.79% was obtained using AP. Similarly, using PAA, the grade increased to 63.46% Fe with a recovery of 82.10%. The findings are also supported by characterizing concentrates using X-ray diffraction(XRD) and electron probe microanalysis(EPMA) techniques.展开更多

In this study, new and novel poly(2-anisidine)@zirconium tungstate(P2A/ZrW_2O_8) was synthesized by simple so-gel method. Physicochemical characterization of P2A/ZrW_2O_8 was done by thermogravimetric analysis(TGA), scanning electron microscopy(SEM), X-ray powder diffraction(XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR), ion exchange and simultaneous four probe dc conductivity studies. The conductivity study revealed its highly semiconducting nature, in the range of 10^(-1)–10^(-2) S·cm^(-1). Ion-exchange capabilities of the composite make it applicable for cation-exchange studies. The result of distribution studies(Kd) revealed its selectivity towards Cd^(2+) compared to other metal ions. This property of the composite was utilized for designing Cd^(2+) selective membrane electrode. Several important physical parameters of the ion-selective electrode were determined, such as Nernstian slope(32.32 mV·decade^(-1)), working pH range was 2.0–4.0 and response time was found ～ 17 s.The analytical utility of this wave like composite membrane electrode was as, indicator electrode in various potentiometric titrations.展开更多

The excimer (IF) to monomer (I-M) intensity ratio (I-E/I-M) of LPPS dilute solution shows a double linear Arrhenius plot with a break point ascribable to a transition temperature Tt. This behavior has not been found for single chain polyorganosiloxanes. When In/(E) of LPPS was plotted against 1/T, it also gave a double linear plot with one break point, which was found in single chain polyorganosiloxanes. The different behaviors between LPPS and single chain polyorganosiloxanes may be mainly attributed to the relatively rigid double-chain macromolecular backbone of LPPS. However, the 1n(I-E/I-M) of dilute LPPVS solution versus 1/T shows a simple linear variation with a positive slope which confirms our proposition. The difference between the fluorescence results of LPPS and those of LPPVS may possibly derive from their structure differences and cooperative motion in backbone chain bonds.展开更多

In order to prevent corrosion of mild steel substrates during coating deposition, specimens were pretreated in 0.5M oxalic acid solution, employing galvanostatic method. This would passivate the steel substrate and facilitate the coating process as well. Corrosion resistance of coated substrates was investigated in 1M NaCl solution using Tafel polarization technique. In addition, using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), morphological characterization of coatings produced, was investigated. Regarding the corrosion characteristics, results obtained revealed that the ratio of 1 to 1 (Pyrrole/Methylpyrrole) could play an important role.展开更多

The polycondensation reactions produce a series of new poly（amide-imide）s （5a-f） in high yields, and inherent viscosity between 0.42 and 0,55 dL/g. The resulting poly（amide-imide）s （5a-f） were characterized by elemental analysis, viscosity measurements, thermal gravimetric analysis （TGA and DTG）, solubility test and FT-IR spectroscopy.
文摘Electrochemical polymerizations of various ratios of pyrrole and methylpyrrole monomers were performed in aqueous toluene-4-sulfinic acid sodium salt (T4SNa) electrolyte, using galvanostatic method. pH of electrolyte was adjusted by p-toluene sulfonic acid (PTSA). In order to prevent corrosion of mild steel substrates during coating deposition, specimens were pretreated in 0.5M oxalic acid solution, employing galvanostatic method. This would passivate the steel substrate and facilitate the coating process as well. Corrosion resistance of coated substrates was investigated in 1M NaCl solution using Tafel polarization technique. In addition, using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), morphological characterization of coatings produced, was investigated. Regarding the corrosion characteristics, results obtained revealed that the ratio of 1 to 1 (Pyrrole/Methylpyrrole) could play an important role.

文摘Eight novel poly(amide-imide)s were synthesized under microwave irradiation by using a domestic microwaveoven from the polycondensation reactions of N.N'-(pyromellitoyl)-bis-L-alanine diacid chloride(1)with eight differentderivatives of hydantoin compounds(2a-h)in the presence of a small amount of a polar organic medium such as o-cresol.The polycondensation proceeded rapidly,compared with the conventional solution polycondensation and was completedwithin 8-10 min,producing a series of new poly(amide-imide)s(3a-h)with inherent viscosities about 0.35-0.68 dL/g inhigh yields.The obtained PAIs(3a-h)were fully characterized by means of FT-IR spectroscopy,elemental analyses,inherentviscosity(ηinh),solubility and specific rotation measurements.All of the resulting polymers show optical rotation and areoptically active.Thermal properties of the poly(amide-imide)s were investigated by using thermal gravimetric analysis(TGA).
