Ionic liquids (ILs) have become valuable new materials for a broad spectrum of applications including additives or components for new hydrophobic/hydrophilic polymer coatings. However, fundamental information surrounding IL molecular properties is still lacking. With this in mind, the microinterface between two immiscible electrolytic solutions (micro-ITIES), for example, water|1,2-dichloroetha...

A number of facts suggest that the genuine proteins are kept in aqueous solution by the forces of attraction between the molecules of proteins or their polar groups and the molecules of water, or, in other words, that they form true solutions. Such facts are the high concentrations of salts required for precipitation of genuine proteins (regardless of valency of ion), the increase in solubility...

The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate the physicochemical properties of gray and white structural and nonstructural Portland cement, gray and white ProRoot MTA and MTA BIO. The water/powder ratio, setting time, solubility and pH (hydrogen-ion potential) changes of the materials were evaluated. Tests followed specification #57 from the American National Standard Institute/American De...

The present work describes the development of a robust and sensitive targeted analysis platform for the simultaneous quantification in blood plasma of lipid oxygenated mediators and fatty acids using solid-phase extraction (SPE) and high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS). The concurrent analysis of these lipid mediators is challenging because of ...

the protonation constant values of salicylic and 5-nitrosalicylic acid werestudied by a combinationof spectrophotometric and potentiometric methods at 25 °c in wide range of ionic strength. the ionicstrength of solutions was kept constant by sodium perchlorate as background electrolyte at 0.10 to 3.0 moldm-3. potentiometer was calibrated according to gran method at each of ionic strength. the p...

The mechanism of reaction of cyclic monoimides with oxiranes was established based upon kinetic studies and product analysis. It has been established that the reaction proceeds through initial formation of an adduct of imide and triethylamine. The crucial bond in adduct has ionic character; in non-aqueous solvents it is present as ion pair, while in water the adduct dissociate and free ions are...
