Abstract The amount of lignin reacting according to the slow residual phase, i.e. the residual phase lignin, is in many perspectives an interesting issue. The purpose of the present investigation was to develop a mathematical model to show how the amount of residual phase lignin in the kraft cooking of spruce chips (Picm ahies) depends on the conditions in the earlier phases of the cook. The variables studied were hydroxide ion concentration, hydrogen sulfide ion concentration and ionic strength. The liquor-to-wood ratio during pulping was very high to maintain approximately constant chemical concentrations throughout each experiment (so called "constant composition" cooks). An increase in hydroxide ion concentration andtor hydrogen sulfide ion concentration leads to a decrease in the amount of residual phase lignin, while an increase in ionic strength, i.e. sodium ion concentration, leads to an increase. A signiticant result is that the hydrogen sulfide ion concentration has a pronounced influence on the amount of residual phase lignin during a cook at a low hydroxide ion concentration. The amount of residual phase lignin expressed as % lignin on wood, L,, can be described by the following equation developed for "constant composition" cooks (when cooking with a constant sodium ion concentration of 2 mol/L): LT=0,55-0.32*[HO-](-1,3)*ln[HS-] This equation is valid for a concentration of HO- in the range from 0.17 to 1.4, and a hydrogen sulfide ion concentration from 0.07 to 0.6 mol/L.

Abstract The binding of proflavine to native DNA increased its stability against thermal denaturation as measured by viscometric method. Up to a moderate ionic strength of 0.058 ᴍ, the melting temperature of the complex increased almost linearly with the increase of dye concentrations and a saturation was reached when one proflavine molecule was added per four to five DNA-Phosphates (D/P≅0.2). The extent of stabilization (ΔTm) produced by dye binding decreased gradually with the increase of ionic strength and no stabilization effect was observed at an ionic strength of about 0.3 ᴍ. The maximum melting temperature attained by Proflavine binding was almost independent of the ionic strength of the medium. The same maximum value was reached as obtained simply by increasing the sodium ion concentration.

The principal cadmium-containing species in basic solutions varies with the concentration of hydroxide ion such that the solubility of cadmium hydroxide can be satisfactorily expressed, in solutions of high ionic strength, in terms of [Cd(OH)+] = 3.0 × 10−9[OH−]−1, [Cd(OH)2]soln = 1.0 × 10−6, [Cd(OH)3−] = 1.2 × 10−6[OH−], and [Cd(OH)42−] = 3.1 × 10−6[OH−]2. Since the solubility 10 varies from 10−4 to 10−6M, the predominant species at high concentrations of hydroxide ion is Cd(OH)42−; at low concentrations of hydroxide ion Cd(OH)+ is the principal cadmium-containing ion in solution. There is little free cadmium ion in solutions whose hydroxide ion concentration is greater than 10-4M.

AbstractThe influence of sodium ion concentration [Na+] on the dissolution of carbohydrates in black liquor (BL) during flow-through kraft cooking of Scots pine wood meal (Pinus sylvestris) was studied. Fractions of BL were collected at different times and the carbohydrate content of the various fractions was analysed. Lignin was precipitated from the BL by lowering the pH, and the carbohydrate content of the precipitated lignins (Lprec) was also examined. The molecular weight distribution (MWD) of the Lprecsamples was analysed. Xylose (Xyl) was found to be the most predominant sugar in BL aside from arabinose (Ara) and galactose (Gal), while the amounts of these sugars decreased with increasing levels of [Na+] in the cooking liquor. The minor amounts of mannose (Man) found in BL was not influenced by the [Na+]. The effects of NaCl and Na2CO3on the carbohydrate dissolution were similar, but slightly lower concentrations of Ara and Xyl were found in the case of NaCl application. All of the Lprecsamples contained some carbohydrate residues, the contents of which increased with increasing cooking time and decreased with higher [Na+]. It can be concluded that arabinoglucuronoxylan (AGX) along with arabinogalactans (AG) and arabinan, are covalently linked to lignin. The glucose (Glc) residue detected in Lprecmay originate from 1,3-β-glucan linked to lignin.

<p>The sodium-ion conducting family of Na<sub>3</sub><i>Pn</i>S<sub>4</sub>, with <i>Pn</i> = P, Sb, have gained interest for the use in solid-state batteries due to their high ionic conductivity. However, significant improvements to the conductivity have been hampered by the lack of aliovalent dopants that can introduce vacancies into the structure. Inspired by the need for vacancy introduction into Na<sub>3</sub><i>Pn</i>S<sub>4</sub>, the solid solutions with WS<sub>4</sub><sup>2-</sup> introduction are explored. The influence of the substitution with WS<sub>4</sub><sup>2-</sup> for PS<sub>4</sub><sup>3-</sup> and SbS<sub>4</sub><sup>3-</sup>, respectively, is monitored using a combination of X-ray diffraction, Raman and impedance spectroscopy. With increasing vacancy concentration improvements resulting in a very high ionic conductivity of 13 ± 3 mS·cm<sup>-1</sup> for Na<sub>2.9</sub>P<sub>0.9</sub>W<sub>0.1</sub>S<sub>4</sub> and 41 ± 8 mS·cm<sup>-1</sup> for Na<sub>2.9</sub>Sb<sub>0.9</sub>W<sub>0.1</sub>S<sub>4</sub> can be observed. This work acts as a stepping-stone towards further engineering of ionic conductors using vacancy-injection via aliovalent substituents.</p>

Surface tension measurements on aqueous solutions of sodium cyclododecylmethanoate and sodium cycloundecylmethanoate in sodium carbonate/bicarbonate buffers and at constant sodium ion concentration at 25 °C were used to obtain the standard free energies of adsorption, the saturation areas per surfactant ion, and the critical "micelle" concentrations of these compounds. Similar measurements were done for solutions of sodium dodecanoate for comparisons.The standard free energies of adsorption of CH2 group that is located in a macrocyclic cycloalkyl ring appears to follow the "rule of two" (−RT ln 2) that is also valid for straight chain ionic surfactants. The saturation areas of both cyclododecylmethanoate and cycloundecylmethanoate are about 52 Å2/ion as compared to about 32 Å2/ion for normal dodecanoate.For large ring cycloalkylmethanoates the critical "micelle" concentrations appear to decrease by a factor of about 4/5 for each CH2 group added to the ring as compared to the factor of about 1/2 for each CH2 group added to the chain of normal alkanoates. The data suggest that large cycloalkyl rings have "collapsed ring", or "double chain", conformation in aqueous solutions and in the adsorbed state.
