The Stability

The stability constants for the complexes formed between iron species existing in ambient soil environment and fulvic acids (FA) extracted from organic wastes like sewage sludge, farm yard manure (FYM), poultry manure, and press mud were determined in aqueous media of pH 5·0 and 8·5 by discontinuous spectrocolorimetric titration method. The values of stability constant (log K) of Fe–FA complexes estimated at pH 5·0 were 6·026, 6·212, 6·270, and 6·342 for FYM, sludge, poultry manure, and press mud, respectively. The respective values at pH 8·5 were 6·145, 6·276, 6·350, and 6·940. The order of the values of log K for different preparations of fulvic acids was press mud > poultry manure > sludge > FYM. The functional group contents, their pH of neutralisation, and electrostatic properties of the FA such as pKINT, pKm, and 0·868 nW, were found to be the determining factors for maximum binding ability of FA for metal cations and the stability constant of Fe–FA for different FA preparations. The basic assumptions and the limitations of the discontinuous spectrocolorimetric estimation of stability constants for Fe–FA are discussed.

Complex Formation Process

The complex formation process between Ni(II) and fulvic acids has been studied through the solubility method at pH = 9.0. The old suspension of Ni(OH)2 is used as a solid phase. Fulvic acids are isolated from Paravani lake by the adsorption-chromatographic method. The activated charcoal is used as a sorbent. The concentration of fulvic acids in model solutions changes from 1.1 × 10-5 mol/L to 4.4 × 10-5 mol/L. The value of molar mass of fulvic acids at pH = 9.0 was taken into consideration for the calculation of molar concentrations of fulvic acids. Before adding the ligand the initial concentration of nickel was 3.8 × 10-6 mol/L. This article has shown that, during complex formation process every 0.25 part of an associate of fulvic acids (Mw = 7610), inculcates into nickel's inner coordination sphere as an integral ligand, so it may be assumed, that the average molecular weight of the associate of fulvic acids which takes part in complex formation process equals to 1903. This part of the associate of fulvic acids was conventionally called the "active associate". The average molecular weight of the "active associate" was used for determining the concentration of free ligand and average stability constant (1:1), which equals to β = 1.07 × 107 (lgβ = 7.03).

Complex Formation Process

Natural macromolecular organic substances-fulvic acids take an active part in complex formation processes and stipulate migration forms of heavy metals in natural waters The calculation of the migration forms of heavy metals is one of the problematic issue of the contemporary chemistry, which couldn’t be solved without using the conditional stability constants of fulvate complexes. In spite of researches, experimental data on stability constants of complex compounds of fulvic acids with heavy metals ( among them copper) are heterogeneous and they differ in several lines from each other. One of the reason of such condition is ignoring an average molecular weight of the associates of fulvic acids, which finally causes the wrong results. Complex formation process between copper (II) and fulvic acids was studied by the solubility method at pH=9.0. Cu(OH)2 suspension was used as a solid phase. Fulvic acids were isolated from Paravani lake by the adsorption –chromatographic method. In this article is shown that, during complex formation process every 1/4 part of an associate of fulvic acids(Mw=7610), inculcates into copper's inner coordination sphere as an integral ligand, so it may assume, that the average molecular weight of the associate of fulvic acids which takes part in complex formation process equals to 1903. This part of the associate of fulvic acids was conventionally called an“active associate".The average molecular weight of the“active associate”was used for determination the composition of copper fulvate complex, the concentration of free ligand and stability constant, which equals to 2,25x107

The Stability

The humic substances in a 'Holt' leptic podzol, a 'Haar' humic podzol and a 'Veld' gleyic podzol from the Netherlands were analysed chemically and micromorphologically. The absorption spectra of Na-humates in visible light and infrared spectra were determined for the humic acids. The translocation and distribution of the principal humus compounds occurred by mechanical illuviation in the 'Holt' podzol, and by translocation in solution in the 'Haar' podzol and the 'Veld' podzol. The micromorphological images were closely correlated with the chemical composition of the humic substances. Illuviation cutans occurring in the B horizons of the 'Haar' podzol and the 'Veld' podzol appeared to consist mainly of fulvic acids. The dark humus micro-aggregates characteristic of the 'Haar' podzol and the Ap horizon of the 'Veld' podzol were composed mainly of bitumens, humins and humic acids of high molecular weight, while the brown micro-aggregates of the 'Holt' podzol and the lower horizons of the 'Veld' podzol consisted mainly of fulvic acids and humic acids of low molecular weight. The stability of micro-aggregates was correlated with their composition. (Abstract retrieved from CAB Abstracts by CABI’s permission)

Initial Viscosity

Aqueous solutions of a 1 weight-per cent poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO) were degassed under vacuum, transferred to a parallel plate viscometer under a nitrogen gas blanket, and exposed to Co60 gamma radiation. The Co60 source was rated at 4000 curies, and the dose ratewas 3.8x105 rads/hr. The poly (ethylene oxide) employed in the irradiations had an initial viscosity average molecular weight of 2.1 x 106.The solutions were gelled by a free radical reaction with dosages ranging from 5x104 rads to 4.8x106 rads.
