Identification of Tetramethylammonium Ion in Methylated Nh4-bentonite
نویسنده
چکیده
-Treating NH4-bentonite with diazomethane results in methylation of adsorbed ammonium with the formation of the tetramethylammonium ion. This ion, which can be completely removed through ion exchange, is distinguished in the IR spectrum by a strong band at 1480 cm -1 due to CH3 group bending vibrations. X-ray diffractograms, CEC, and surface area of the clay are not modified by treatment with diazomethane. Key Words---Bentonite, Diazomethane, Exchange, Montmorillonite, Tetramethylammonium.

ZnO/bentonite Nanocomposites Prepared with Solid-state Ion Exchange as Photocatalysts
Photocatalyst nanocomposites of ZnO/bentonite clay are synthesized by Solid-state ion exchange method. Ion exchange intercalation process of clays is used to incorporate the catalyst into the basal space of the layered structure of clays. The purpose of this study is to find a new method, which is focused on simplifying and saving time to prepare ZnO-bentonite composite with photocatalyst prope...
متن کاملComparative Sorption of Methylene Blue onto Hydrophobic Clays
Chemical modifications of clay to remove methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solutions at room temperature were compared. Natural bentonite (NC) was modified by cation exchange with hexadecyltrimethylammonium chloride (HC), bencyltriethylammonium chloride (BC), and tetramethylammonium chloride (TC) to reverse the surface polarity of the hydrophilic bentonite. The adsorption of MB was studied and f...

متن کاملIonic selectivity of Ih channels of rod photoreceptors in tiger salamanders
Ionic selectivity of Ih channels of tiger salamander rod photoreceptors was investigated using whole-cell voltage clamp. Measured reversal potentials and the Goldman-Hodgkin-Katz voltage equation were used to calculate permeability ratios with 20 mM K+ as a reference. In the absence of external K+, Ih is small and hard to discern. Hence, we defined Ih as the current blocked by 2 mM external Cs+...

Pyrolysis-gas chromatography in the presence of tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) was applied to the determination of the ratio of the abundances of the syringyl beta-aryl ether subunits to those of the guaiacyl equivalents (S/G) in lignin. Diazomethane-methylated kenafs (Hibiscus cannabinus and Hibiscus sabdariffa) and beech (Fagus crenata) in situ lignins were employed. Relative abundances...
