Chemical, morphological characterizations and drilling mud yield point impact of Ririwai biotite have been investigated and reported in this work. Local Ririwai biotite mined in Doguwa Local Government Area of Kano State was used as a weighting agent in drilling mud formulation. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) characterization, X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Electron Dispersion X-ray (EDX) analysis of the Ririwai biotite were carried out. Water-based drilling mud was prepared using commercial bentonite according to the API 13A Standard. Effect of gradual addition of Ririwai weighting agent; 0 – 100 wt%, on the yield point of the formulated drilling mud was studied. XRD analysis showed that the dominant mineral phase in the material was biotite. Morphological analysis carried out showed that the Ririwai biotite had a sheet-like morphology while the commercial bentonite had clumpy morphology. The estimated average particle sizes were 60 and 25 μm for the Ririwai biotite and commercial bentonite, respectively. EDX analysis showed that silica-alumina ratio of the Ririwai biotite was 9.3 while that of the commercial bentonite was 1.58. The optimum yield point of the formulated drilling mud was 2.0 lb/100 ft2 corresponding to formulation having 0 – 30 wt% weighting agent composition. The specific gravity of Ririwai biotite was determined as 2.4.

The surface and structural characterization techniques of three atom-thick bi-dimensional 2D-WS2 colloidal nanocrystals cross the limit of bulk investigation, offering the possibility of simultaneous phase identification, structural-to-morphological evaluation, and surface chemical description. In the present study, we report a rational understanding based on X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and structural inspection of two kinds of dimensionally controllable 2D-WS2 colloidal nanoflakes (NFLs) generated with a surfactant assisted non-hydrolytic route. The qualitative and quantitative determination of 1T’ and 2H phases based on W 4f XPS signal components, together with the presence of two kinds of sulfur ions, S22− and S2−, based on S 2p signal and related to the formation of WS2 and WOxSy in a mixed oxygen-sulfur environment, are carefully reported and discussed for both nanocrystals breeds. The XPS results are used as an input for detailed X-ray Diffraction (XRD) analysis allowing for a clear discrimination of NFLs crystal habit, and an estimation of the exact number of atomic monolayers composing the 2D-WS2 nanocrystalline samples.

Aluminothermic Reaction

An aluminothermic reaction starting with inexpensive MoO3, SiO2, and Al powders was utilized to prepare molybdenum disilicide (MoSi2) powders by the micropyretic/combustion synthesis process and leaching. The combustion-synthesized product was porous and could readily be crushed into powders. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis revealed that the product of such a reaction consisted of α–Al2O3, MoSi2, and a small amount of Mo(Si,Al)2 and Mo5Si3. The reason for the formation of Mo(Si, Al)2 phase is discussed. MoSi2 powders were obtained by leaching out the Al2O3 from the synthesized powder mixtures in boiling phosphoric acid solution. The synthesized MoSi2 powders, including a small amount of Mo(Si, Al)2 and Mo5Si3, were very fine with an average particle size of about 1 μm.

Fish Bones

The present work demonstrates a low-cost route to produce hydroxyapatite (HAp) from fish bones (natural source) by a simple heat-treatment process. The produced HAp was characterized by X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FTIR). Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis obtained elemental composition that confirmed the presence of Ca and P; then the Ca/P mole ratio was calculated. XRD analysis from Chanos chanos and Calarias batracus bone has produced the diffraction peaks at 31.8°, 32.1°, and 32.9° that corresponded to the HAp phase. The presence of functional groups, PO43‒ and OH‒, has been confirmed by FTIR spectra that arecharacteristics of HAp. EDX analysis has shown that the Ca/P mole ratio was similar to the Ca/P mole ratio of the HAp’s stoichiometry (1.66). But actually, not all fish bones can produce pure HAp after the heat-treatment process, such as Tylosurus crocodilus bone. Based on XRD analysis from the main diffraction peak form is a β-TCP phase

Soil Carbonates

In the course of an investigation on the determination of soil carbonates a sample of dolomite, from the Ibis dolomite quarry, Mr. Flinders, Queensland, was examined by X-ray diffraction and found to contain palygorskite. As this appears to be the first recognition of the occurrence of the mineral in Australia and as it has a number of commercial uses (e.g. as a drilling mud, catalyst, decolorizer, and absorbent), further work was undertaken.

Abstract The internal-standard method and the powder diffractometer have been applied here to the quantitative determination of urinary stone constituents by x-ray diffraction (XRD). Reference intensity ratios determined for six stone substances were used in the reduction of intensity data. Constituent concentrations calculated for 21 stones were compared with values obtained from an element-sensitive technique. We conclude that XRD analysis alone cannot be regarded as a routine technique for the quantitative characterization of uroliths, but that semiquantitative XRD analysis supplemented by accurate quantitative elemental data is more suitable for the precise determination of true stone composition.

Analysis of the constituents of renal and biliary calculi may be of help in the management of patients with calculous disease. Several methods of analysis are available for identifying these constituents. Most common are chemical methods, optical crystallography, x-ray diffraction, and infrared spectroscopy. The application of a SEM with x-ray analysis capabilities should be considered as an additional alternative.A scanning electron microscope equipped with an x-ray “mapping” attachment offers an additional dimension in its ability to locate elemental constituents geographically, and thus, provide a clue in determination of possible metabolic etiology in calculus formation. The ability of this method to give an undisturbed view of adjacent layers of elements in their natural state is of advantage in determining the sequence of formation of subsequent layers of chemical constituents.

Over time, performance of tubular backpulse pressure filters in kraft mills deteriorates, even with regular acid washing. Unscheduled filter replacement due to filter plugging results in significant costs and may result in mill downtime. We identified acid-insoluble filter-plugging materials by scanning electron microscope/energy-dispersion X-ray spectroscopy (SEM/EDS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis in both polypropylene and Gore-Tex™ membrane filter socks. The major filter-plugging components were calcium sulfate (gypsum), calcium phosphate (hydroxylapatite), aluminosilicate clays, metal sulfides, and carbon. We carried out detailed sample analysis of both the standard acid-washing procedure and a modified procedure. Filter plugging by gypsum and metal sulfides appeared to occur because of the acid-washing procedure. Gypsum formation on the filter resulted from significant hydrolysis of sulfamic acid solution at temperatures greater than 130°F. Modification of the acid-washing procedure greatly reduced the amount of gypsum and addition of a surfactant to the acid reduced wash time and mobilized some of the carbon from the filter. With surfactant, acid washing was 95% complete after 40 min.

In this paper the synthesis and the study of some complex compounds of Fe(III) with ligands derived from: 2-(4-chloro-phenylsulfanyl)-1-(2-hydroxy-3,5-diiodo-phenyl)-ethanone (HL1), 1-(3,5-dibromo-2-hydroxy-phenyl)-2-phenylsulfanyl-ethanone(HL2), and 2-(4-chloro-phenylsulfanyl)-1-(3,5-dibromo-2-hydroxy-phenyl)-ethanone (HL3) is presented. The characterization of these complexes is based on method as: the elemental chemical analysis, IR and ESR spectroscopy, M�ssbauer, the thermogravimetric analysis and X-ray diffraction. Study of the IR and chemical analysis has evidenced that the precipitates form are a complexes and the combination ratio of M:L is 1:2. The central atoms of Fe(III) presented paramagnetic properties and a octaedric hybridization. Starting from this precipitation reactions, a method for the gravimetric determination of Fe(III) with this organic ligands has been possible. Based on the experimental data on literature indications, the structural formulae of the complex compounds are assigned.
