Chemical Experts at the Royal Prussian Porcelain Manufactory

چکیده
The royal porcelain manufactories in eighteenth-century Continental Europe were sites of production that implemented chemistry in three different areas: manufacture of porcelain paste, preparation of pigments for ornamenting porcelain, and construction of furnace along with choice of fuel for firing porcelain. This paper provides evidence for the Royal Prussian Porcelain Manufactory in Berlin being a site of chemistry by studying the activities of its socalled arcanists (Arcanisten), laboratory workers (Laboranten) and chemists between 1787 and 1795. It pays particular attention to the questions of who implemented chemistry and how this was done.

Electrocatalytic oxidation of sulfite Ion at the surface carbon ceramic modified electrode with prussian blue
The redox properties of sulfite ion has been examind using cyclic voltammetry in acetonitrile solvent at the surface of gold, pelatin and glassy carbon electrodes. It has bben found tha, sulfite ion exhibits two electron oxidation peak with EC’ mechanism. A novel chemically modified electrode containing Prussian blue complex and multi wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNs) was achieved on the surface of...
متن کاملApplication of carbon ceramic modified electrode with prussian blue for electrocatalytic oxidation of nitrite ion
A novel chemically modified electrode containing Prussian blue complex was achieved on the surface of glass carbon electrode by sol-gel technique. The electrochemical behavior of modified electrode was characterized by cyclic voltammetry in detail. The film electrode obtained was very stable and exhibited electrocatalytic response for oxidation of nitrite. Results showed at bare GC electrode, a...

“...[T]he sound of water escaping from mill-dams... old rotten planks, slimy posts, and brick work, I love such things.... As long as I do paint, I shall never cease to paint such places. They have always been my delight,” wrote John Constable (1776–1837), English landscape painter and source of inspiration for Constant Troyon and others, who looked for subjects not in the classical or academic...
متن کاملPrussian blue nanoparticles operate as a contrast agent for enhanced photoacoustic imaging.
Prussian blue nanoparticles were explored for the first time as an excellent contrast agent for enhancing photoacoustic tomography in vitro and in vivo due to their superior absorption efficiency of near-infrared laser pulses at a wavelength of 765 nm.
