A Fast and Sustainable Route to Bassanite Nanocrystals from Gypsum

The pressure dependence of the dehydration of gypsum to bassanite

A new experimental determination of the stability relationships for the dehydration of gypsum to the hemihydrate mineral bassanite at elevated temperature and pressure is described. The experimental method used depends on the observation of very small changes in pressure on the onset of reaction due to the potential volume change in the reaction. The technique yields P T data of very high preci...

Preparation of ZnO Nanocrystals with Desired Morphology from Coordination Polymers through a Solid-state Decomposition Route

One-dimensional (1D) coordination polymer, [Zn(4,4´-bpy)(H2O)4](ADC).4H2O (1) (4,4´-bpy = 4,4´-bipyridine and H2ADC = acetylenedicarboxylic acid), and three-dimensional (3D) metal-organic framework (MOF), Zn(ADC)2.(HTEA)2(2) (HTEA = triethylamine) were prepared at room temperature. The compounds were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) analyses....

Water of Hydration Dynamics in Minerals Gypsum and Bassanite: Ultrafast 2D IR Spectroscopy of Rocks.

Water of hydration plays an important role in minerals, determining their crystal structures and physical properties. Here ultrafast nonlinear infrared (IR) techniques, two-dimensional infrared (2D IR) and polarization selective pump-probe (PSPP) spectroscopies, were used to measure the dynamics and disorder of water of hydration in two minerals, gypsum (CaSO4·2H2O) and bassanite (CaSO4·0.5H2O)...

Raman , Mir , and Nir Spectroscopic Study of Calcium Sulfates : Gypsum , Bassanite

a synchronic and diachronic approach to the change route of address terms in the two recent centuries of persian language

terms of address as an important linguistics items provide valuable information about the interlocutors, their relationship and their circumstances. this study was done to investigate the change route of persian address terms in the two recent centuries including three historical periods of qajar, pahlavi and after the islamic revolution. data were extracted from a corpus consisting 24 novels w...
