Iron analyses performed on used gas turbine lubricating oil samples by several variations of rotating disk–spark emission spectrography, atomic absorptiometry, and x-ray fluorescence spectrometry are compared with a quantitative wet chemical technique. The results indicate that emission spectrography with a cobalt internal standard, atomic absorptiometry with a nitrous oxide–acetylene flame, and x-ray fluorescence, both dispersive and nondispersive, are the most reliable instrumental methods. The iron contained in the samples exists primarily as particulates 1 µ or less in diameter.

The nanoscale, cubic silver (I) oxide (Ag2O.nH2O) with different particles sizes and surface areas were synthesized by a wet chemical technique. The prepared crystallite size ranges were from (33.3±0.3 to 39.4±0.4 nm). Interface areas were estimated by comparing the surface areas measured by N2 adsorption to the crystallite sizes refined from X-ray diffraction data. The interface enthalpy of Ag2O.nH2O nanocrystal was measured using isothermal acid solution calorimetry in 25%HNO3 at 26°C. The interface enthalpy was verified by utilizing thermodynamic cycle. The enthalpies of drop solution (ΔHds) for Ag2O.nH2O are exothermic and range from (-62.228±0.197) to (-64.025±0.434 kJ/mol), while its interface enthalpy is (0.842±0.508 J/m2). This work provides the first calorimetric measurement of the interface enthalpy of nanocrystalline silver (I) oxide (Ag2O.nH2O).

Preparation of LiTaO3 was done using the sol-gel method which is also known as the wet chemical technique. Thermal analysis (TG-DSC) of LiTaO3 precursor was studied to determine an optimized heating temperature. LiTaO3 was heated at 550 °C with different sintering time of 12, 24, 48 and 72 h. The formation of pure LiTaO3 occurred during sintering time of 72 h which was confirmed using X-ray diffraction (XRD). The morphology of pure LiTaO3 was recorded using a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Pure LiTaO3 can only be formed at a longer heating time in order to complete the oxidation process.

X-ray powder diffraction methods, successful in quantitative determination of silicate minerals in fine-grained rocks, have been applied to the determination of calcite, dolomite, and magnesite in greenschist facies meta-volcanic rocks. Internal standard graphs employing two standards (NaCl and Mo) have been determined.Carbonate mineral modes (calcite and dolomite) for 6 greenschist facies meta-volcanic rocks obtained by the X-ray powder method have been compared to normative carbonate mineral contents calculated for the same rocks. This comparison showed a maximum variation of 7.7 wt.% between the X-ray modes and the normative carbonate mineral contents of the rocks. Maximum standard deviation for the X-ray modes of these rocks was equivalent to 4.4 wt.%.

AbstractWe present the synthesis and characterization of a novel lithium iron polyphosphate LiFe2P3O10 prepared by wet-chemical technique from nitrate precursors. The crystal system is shown to be monoclinic (P21/m space group) and the refined cell parameters are a=4.596 Å, b=8.566 Å, c=9.051 Å and β=97.46°. LiFe2P3O10 has a weak antiferromagnetic ordering below the Néel temperature TN=19 K. Electrochemical measurements carried out at 25 °C in lithium cell with LiPF6-EC-DEC electrolyte show a capacity 70 mAh/g in the voltage range 2.7-3.9 V.

Abstract Organic compounds containing bromine, including methyl bromide, ethylene dibromide, and l,2-dibromo-3-chloropropane, have been used extensively for the fumigation of foods, or soils in which foods grow, making it necessary to determine residues of bromine and bromine-containing organic compounds. A large number of methods for the determination of bromine in foods, as organic, inorganic, and combined total bromide, have been developed. In methods for organic bromide, the bromine is converted to the inorganic form for measurement by titration, photometry, or other means. In recent years, instrumental methods have been developed in which the total bromine in the sample is determined, regardless of the state in which it exists. X-ray fluorescence and neutron activation analysis are the 2 instrumental methods used most widely. Residue data are presented for some typical bromine-containing samples.

X-Ray fluorescence has been applied to the analysis of flotation concentrates obtained from pegmatitic uranium ores occurring in Northern Saskatchewan. Approximate uranium analyses can be obtained by direct measurement on flotation concentrates but more accurate results are obtained by using an internal standard such as strontium or yttrium. The time required for an analysis, as compared to that of conventional chemical or fluorimetric methods, is considerably reduced and flotation pilot plant operations can therefore be more effectively controlled. The method has been extended to include the analysis of sulphate leach liquors obtained from the leaching of pegmatitic ores and their flotation concentrates. Organic phases obtained in liquid – liquid extraction studies can also be rapidly analyzed for uranium by X-ray fluorescence.
