Determination of Crystal Growth Rate and Morphology of Barium Carbonate Crystals in a Semi-batch Crystallizer

A semi-batch crystallization system is used to determine growth kinetics and morphology of barium carbonate crystals, under a constant pH value and constant temperature in the various relative supersaturations. Results show that crystal growth rate satisfies a first-order kinetic expression at high relative supersaturation, while at relative supersaturation values lower than 3,  the k...

Loss of Radioactivity From Barium Carbonate Samples.

The exchange loss of radioactivity from solid samplos of barium carbonate through the agency of carbonic acid and its ions has beon investigated under a variety of conditions. It is concluded that tho losses observed are greatly dependent upon the method of sample proparation, in particular the nature or any heat troatment which the sample materials undergo. This paper is based upon work porfor...

Barium and Barium Compounds

The International Programme on Chemical Safety (IPCS), established in 1980, is a joint venture of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the International Labour Organization (ILO), and the World Health Organization (WHO). The overall objectives of the IPCS are to establish the scientific basis for assessment of the risk to human health and the environment from exposure to chemicals, ...

Barium Sulphate Absorption and the Serum Diagnosis of Syphilis

The so-called syphilitic antibodies can be removed from a serum by means of absorption with barium sulphate. The removal is due either to an adsorption or a mechanical absorption. The activity of the syphilitic antibodies is thereby unimpaired. The readiness with which the absorption is accomplished with barium sulphate varies considerably with different syphilitic sera. That barium sulphate ex...
