scholarly journals On the composition of zeolite

Although the substance called Natrolite by Mr. Klaproth has lately been found, under a crystalline form, perfectly similar to that of mesotype, M. Haüy has not thought himself warranted, from this circumstance, to consider these two bodies as of the same species, on account of the difference of their chemical composition; because, according to the analysis of M. Vauquelin, there was not observed to be any soda in zeolite, but, on the contrary, a considerable quantity of lime, which is not a constituent part of natrolite. Mr. Smithson, on the contrary, is inclined to consider them as the same substance, by the agreement of their chemical properties, as well as crystallographical form. Although he had, many years since, found that the zeolite of Staffa contained soda, as has since been observed by Dr. Hutton and Dr. Kennedy, he still felt uncertain whether these were of the same kind as those analysed by M. Vauquelin: but having lately received from M. Haüy a cluster of mesotype in rectangular prisms, terminated by a quadrangular pyramid, Mr. Smithson took this opportunity of ascertaining whether this substance and natrolite did or did not differ in their composition. The method pursued by the author in the analysis of zeolite was first to expose ten grains of it to a strong heat, for the purpose of ascertaining the loss; and he found it to be ·95 grain. An equal quantity was then dissolved in muriatic acid; and after the solution had been evaporated to dryness, the residuum was exposed to a red heat. Water was then poured upon it, and dissolved a portion, which, upon evaporation, was found to be muriate of soda, weighing 3·15 grains. From the solution of this salt, neither carbonate of ammonia nor oxalic acid occasioned any precipitate; by which it appeared that this zeolite contained no lime.

The aim of this study is to calculate the physical properties of eight springs of the water of the Dhofar region in Oman using physiochemical parameters like pH, total dissolved solids (TDS), conductivity, turbidity, and dissolved oxygen (DO). The chemical properties estimated the concentrations of the metals in springs of water and specified the best healthy spring of water depending on the percentage difference between the actual and normal range set by the World Health Organization (WHO). Eight samples for each test were collected from eight springs of water, namely, Ain Hamran, Ain Deribat, Ain Tobruk, Ain Al-Nabi Ayoub, Ain Atom, Ain Jarziz, Ain Sahlnot, and Ain Razat using an atomic absorption spectrophotometer (AAS) to study the chemical composition of the samples. Ain Jarziz represented high quality water because the percentage difference between actual and WHO was 78.78% compared to Ain Al-Nabi Ayoub, where the difference percentage was 105.95 %. Quantity of dissolved solid particles has a big effect on TDS and conductivity compared to the turbidity. Identification system was used to evaluate the effect of the quality of the chemical composition on the turbidity for Ions of Cl-1, So4 -2, Ca+2, Na+1, Mg+2, and K+1 to be equal to 99.52%, 75.4%, 92.548%, 95.346%, 98.011%, and 97.33 %, respectively. However, more studies are required to conform with the outcomes of this research employing this energetic technique.

When a mineral presents itself under a form which does not belong to it, there is then what I shall call pseudomorphism.The substance from which the mineral borrows its form may be of any kind—inorganic or even organic. It is called original or pseudomorphosed, while the mineral which replaces it is called pseudomorphic.Pseudomorphism by alteration is that in which the pseudomorphic mineral still contains the elements of the original substance. Pseudomorphism by displacement is that in which this is not the case. In order to understand the difference which exists between these two kinds of pseudomorphisms, it suffices to mention as examples ironpyrites, which changes into limonite, still preserving its crystalline form; or fluor, which after being completely destroyed, is replaced by quartz. The name of paramorphism has been given to the kind of pseudomorphism which is produced without modification of chemical composition. Arragonite changed into calcite, and pyrite changed into marcasite are examples.At first sight it seems that these metamorphoses of minerals must be very exceptional, but observation teaches us, on the contrary, that they are met with in a number of localities; they are, moreover, extremely varied. In fact, they include all the alterations to which minerals are subject in their structure and in their chemical composition. They include also, as a particular case, the decomposition of minerals; and kaolin, for example, results from a true pseudomorphism of felspar.

The difference between average densities of the Moon and Earth was interpreted in the preceding report by Professor H. Urey as indicating a difference in their chemical composition. Therefore, Urey assumes the Moon's formation to have taken place far away from the Earth, under conditions differing substantially from the conditions of Earth's formation. In such a case, the Earth should have captured the Moon. As is admitted by Professor Urey himself, such a capture is a very improbable event. In addition, an assumption that the “lunar” dimensions were representative of protoplanetary bodies in the entire solar system encounters great difficulties.

According to the old surface coating process of European and American furniture, the surface of modified poplar is first differentiated pre-treatment, and then the bottom color modification and material color modification are respectively applied to the modified poplar after the surface differentiation treatment. The visual physical quantity and physical and chemical properties were measured and compared with mahogany, which is commonly used in old furniture in Europe and America to explore the effect of colorants and coloring steps, as well as different surface pretreatments on the coloring effect. Finally, it is concluded that continuous coloring operations can narrow the difference in brightness and red color value in the coloring layer of modified poplar and mahogany. Continuous coloring operations increase the difference between the yellow-green color values of modified poplar and mahogany. Therefore, the coloring difference between modified poplar and mahogany was affected by the colorant and coloring steps. Through color accumulation, the gap between the two in the target color coloring effect can be reduced, thereby reducing the difference between the coloring effect of modified poplar and mahogany.

Abstract Background OPD and OPD' are the two main active components of Ophiopogon japonicas in Shenmai injection (SMI). Being isomers of each other, they are supposed to have similar pharmacological activities, but the actual situation is complicated. The difference of hemolytic behavior between OPD and OPD' in vivo and in vitro was discovered and reported by our group for the first time. In vitro, only OPD' showed hemolysis reaction, while in vivo, both OPD and OPD' caused hemolysis. In vitro, the primary cause of hemolysis has been confirmed to be related to the difference between physical and chemical properties of OPD and OPD'. In vivo, although there is a possible explanation for this phenomenon, the one is that OPD is bio-transformed into OPD' or its analogues in vivo, the other one is that both OPD and OPD' were metabolized into more activated forms for hemolysis. However, the mechanism of hemolysis in vivo is still unclear, especially the existing literature are still difficult to explain why OPD shows the inconsistent hemolysis behavior in vivo and in vitro. Therefore, the study of hemolysis of OPD and OPD' in vivo is of great practical significance in response to the increase of adverse events of SMI. Methods Aiming at the hemolysis in vivo, this manuscript adopted untargeted metabolomics and lipidomics technology to preliminarily explore the changes of plasma metabolites and lipids of OPD- and OPD'-treated rats. Metabolomics and lipidomics analyses were performed on ultra-high performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) system tandem with different mass spectrometers (MS) and different columns respectively. Multivariate statistical approaches such as principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal partial least square-discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) were applied to screen the differential metabolites and lipids. Results Both OPD and OPD' groups experienced hemolysis, Changes in endogenous differential metabolites and differential lipids, enrichment of differential metabolic pathways, and correlation analysis of differential metabolites and lipids all indicated that the causes of hemolysis by OPD and OPD' were closely related to the interference of phospholipid metabolism. Conclusions This study provided a comprehensive description of metabolomics and lipidomics changes between OPD- and OPD'-treated rats, it would add to the knowledge base of the field, which also provided scientific guidance for the subsequent mechanism research. However, the underlying mechanism require further research.

Aiming to characterise the properties of the molecular gas in the ultra-luminous infrared galaxy Mrk 273 and its outflow, we used the NOEMA interferometer to image the dense-gas molecular tracers HCN, HCO+, HNC, HOC+ and HC3N at ∼86 GHz and ∼256 GHz with angular resolutions of 4ʺ̣9 × 4ʺ̣5 (∼3.7 × 3.4 kpc) and 0ʺ̣61 × 0ʺ̣55 (∼460 × 420 pc). We also modelled the flux of several H2O lines observed with Herschel using a radiative transfer code that includes excitation by collisions and far-infrared photons. The disc of the Mrk 273 north nucleus has two components with decoupled kinematics. The gas in the outer parts (R ∼ 1.5 kpc) rotates with a south-east to north-west direction, while in the inner disc (R ∼ 300 pc) follows a north-east to south-west rotation. The central 300 pc, which hosts a compact starburst region, is filled with dense and warm gas, and contains a dynamical mass of (4 −5) × 109 M⊙, a luminosity of L′HCN = (3–4) × 108 K km s−1 pc2, and a dust temperature of 55 K. At the very centre, a compact core with R ∼ 50 pc has a luminosity of LIR = 4 × 1011 L⊙ (30% of the total infrared luminosity), and a dust temperature of 95 K. The core is expanding at low velocities ∼50–100 km s−1, probably affected by the outflowing gas. We detect the blue-shifted component of the outflow, while the red-shifted counterpart remains undetected in our data. Its cold and dense phase reaches fast velocities up to ∼1000 km s−1, while the warm outflowing gas has more moderate maximum velocities of ∼600 km s−1. The outflow is compact, being detected as far as 460 pc from the centre in the northern direction, and has a mass of dense gas ≤8 × 108 M⊙. The difference between the position angles of the inner disc (∼70°) and the outflow (∼10°) indicates that the outflow is likely powered by the AGN, and not by the starburst. Regarding the chemistry in Mrk 273, we measure an extremely low HCO+/HOC+ ratio of 10 ± 5 in the inner disc of Mrk 273.

The influence of fuel composition on soot emissions from continuous flow combustors is examined. A study of the combustion characteristics of a wide range of present and potential aviation fuels suggests that smoke point provides a better indication of sooting tendency than does hydrogen content. It is concluded from this study that the best empirical relationship between fuel chemical composition and soot emissions is one which combines two fuel composition parameters — smoke point and naphthalene content — into a single parameter which is shown to correlate successfully soot emissions data acquired from several different fuels burning in a variety of gas turbine and model combustors.

Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) or Laser Sintering (LS) allows functional parts to be produced in a wide range of powdered materials using a dedicated machine, and is thus gaining popularity within the field of Rapid Prototyping (RP). One of the advantages of employing LS is that the loose powder of the building chamber can be recycled. The properties of polymer powder significantly influence the melt viscosity and sintering mechanism during Laser Sintering (LS) processes which results in a good surface finish. The objective of this research is to investigate the chemical composition of fresh polymer materials used in Laser Sintering. There are seven virgin SLS materials which are PA2200, GF3200, Alumide, PrimeCast, PrimePart, Duraflex and CastForm. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) was used to analyze the chemical composition of the materials by using infrared radiation and absorbed frequency. The spectra show that similar functional groups were found in the materials apart from PrimePart and Duraflex. Obtained data from this analysis could be used to investigate on how the fresh and recycled powder materials with different chemical properties would affect the part surface finish.
