Infrared spectra of aluminum chloride and aluminum hydroxide chloride solute species were determined using a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer. The solutions which were examined contained: aluminum chloride; an aluminum hydroxide chloride with an OH/A1 ratio of 2.4, prepared by dissolving freshly prepared aluminum hydroxide gel in an aluminum chloride solution; and an aluminum hydroxide chloride with an OH/A1 ratio of 2.5, prepared by reacting aluminum metal with an AlCl3 solution. Significant differences in the infrared spectra were observed. All solute spectra contained bands in the 2500 to 3100 cm−1 region for the stretch of water coordinated to aluminum, with the bands for aluminum chloride solutions most intense. In the bending region for Al—O—H, bands were observed at 970 to 1080 cm−1. The polymeric solute species also had absorption bands, although at different frequencies, in the OH stretch region, 3300 to 3700 cm−1, and in the frequency region from 600 to 800 cm−1.

The article presents the results of studies on recovery of lithium from reservoir brines using both commercial and synthesized aluminum hydroxide and hydrated manganese oxide as sorbents. The research results showed that, when using commercial aluminum hydroxide and synthesized hydrated manganese oxide as sorbents, lithium recovery from brine was 21.8 and 20.1%, respectively. Studies were conducted on lithium chemisorption on freshly precipitated aluminum hydroxide, which was obtained by adding aluminum chloride solution and tri-calcium hydro-aluminate to the brine. Chemisorption of lithium was carried out under the following conditions: T = 50 °C; AlCl3 solution concentration - 120 g/dm3; molar ratio Li/Al = 7; pH equal = 8.0-8.8; holding time with stirring 1 h. The degree of lithium extraction from brine was 71%; lithium capacity of freshly precipitated Al (OH)3 was 5.9 mg/g. During calcareous leaching of lithium-aluminum precipitate, lithium was extracted into a solution by 74.7%.

Information concerning the matrix isolation Fourier transform infrared spectra of a series of alkanes, esters, lactones, lactams, phenols, alcohols, amides, alkenes, and ketones is presented. A comparison between the characteristics of the spectra in two matrices (argon and xenon) as well as in the absence of any matrix (bare gold disk) is drawn. The impact of these matrices on the characteristics of the IR spectra is compared with the impact observed when spectra are gathered in the vapor phase as well as the condensed phase/solid state. For the majority of compounds studied, the major absorption bands of each class of compound fall between higher values for the vapor phase and lower values for the condensed phase when either argon or xenon is used as the matrix gas. The few exceptions are discussed. The absorption bands found in the xenon matrix are usually at a lower energy than are comparable bands in the argon matrix. In most all cases, the values of absorptions for compounds on the bare disk were lower than the comparable values found in the argon matrix. These results represent the first extensive study at 10 K of the effect of different matrix gas hosts and document the proposal that preconceptions of noble gases as inert hosts for the examination of FT-IR spectra at low temperature are not valid.

A series of β-diketones and alkenes have been examined by matrix isolation Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The matrix experiment readily detects the presence of extensive keto-enol tautomerization in selected β-diketones. Certain absorption bands in the IR could be used to estimate the extent of the tautomerization. The data gathered on the alkenes found their absorption bands to occur in the same regions (±5 cm−1) as those found for VP and SS phases. Minimal nearest-neighbor (aggregation) interactions were found. These results are in contrast to those found for aldehydes, ketones, and acids of similar chain lengths.

A method is described for measuring the infrared spectra of submicrogram quantities of materials separated by thin-layer chromatography (TLC) without removing the sample from the plate. The use of programmed multiple development for the chromatography concentrates each spot of sample on the TLC plate by approximately a factor of 4 compared to conventional TLC. A Fourier transform infrared spectrometer equipped with a mercury cadmium telluride detector enables recognizable spectra to be measured in less than 10 s.

The reproducibility of the KBr pelleting technique for inorganic sulfates was assessed using a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer. Day-to-day variation in peak frequencies of selected bands had standard deviations ranging from 0. to 1.5 cm−1. This 1 cm−1 standard deviation was shown to be due to changes in bandshape, probably due to variations in sample preparation from operator to operator. It was concluded that the reproducibility of sulfates in KBr is sufficient to allow the design of computerized spectral matching programs to identify specific sulfate species based on band frequencies and intensities.

The application of the newly developed technique of photoacoustic infrared spectroscopy, using a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer, to the measurement of the infrared spectra of single slabs of various coal types is described. The effects of aging of coal surfaces, which include both oxidation and abrasion, are clearly apparent in a comparison of the spectra of freshly cleaved and aged coal surfaces.

The nanocomposite hydrogels were prepared by dispersing of the nanopomegranate seed particles into poly(vinyl alcohol)/poly(acrylic acid) blend matrix in an aqueous medium by the solvent casting method. These hydrogels were characterized using scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectra, differential scanning calorimetry, and optical contact angle instruments. The nanopomegranate seed, blend, and hydrogel nanocomposites were tested for microbial activity. In addition, cytocompatibilities of these blend and hydrogel nanocomposites/composites were tested on human lymphocyte with in vitro MTS cell viability assays. Fourier transform infrared spectra revealed that esterification reaction took place among functional groups in the structure of poly(vinyl alcohol) and poly(acrylic acid). The hydrophilic properties of all hydrogels decreased with increasing nanopomegranate seed content. The mean diameters of the nanopomegranate seed particles were about 88 nm. Nanopomegranate seed particles demonstrated antibacterial properties against gram-positive bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus, and gram-negative bacteria, Escherichia coli. The lymphocyte viabilities increased after addition of nanopomegranate seeds into the polymer blend. The swelling behavior of blend and hydrogels was dependent on the cross-linking density created by the reaction between poly(vinyl alcohol)/poly(acrylic acid) blend and nanopomegranate seed. Scanning electron microscopy images were highly consistent with Fourier transform infrared spectra, differential scanning calorimetry, and antibacterial activity results.

This study developed a method to produce uniform captan surface films on a disposable nitrile glove for quantitation with a portable attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectrometer. A permeation test was performed using aqueous captan formulation. Uniform captan surface films were produced using solvent casting with 2-propanol and a 25 mm filter holder connected to a vacuum manifold to control solvent evaporation. The coefficient of variation of the reflectance at 1735 ± 5 cm−1 was minimized by selection of the optimum solvent volume, airflow rate, and evaporation time. At room temperature, the lower to upper quantifiable limits were 0.31–20.7 μg/cm2 ( r = 0.9967; p ≤ 0.05) for the outer glove surface and 0.55–17.5 μg/cm2 ( r = 0.9409; p ≤ 0.05) for the inner surface. Relative humidity and temperature did not affect the uncoated gloves at the wavelength of captan analysis. Glove screening using ATR-FTIR was necessary as a control for between-glove variation. Captan permeation, after 8 hours exposure to an aqueous concentration of 217 mg/mL of Captan 50-WP, was detected at 0.8 ± 0.3 μg/cm2 on the inner glove surface. ATR-FTIR can detect captan permeation and can determine the protectiveness of this glove in the field.
