A highly selective, sensitive, rapid and economical differential pulse polarographic method has been developed for the determination of trace amounts of cadmium in various samples after the adsorption of its 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol (PAN) complex on microcrystalline naphthalene in the pH range of 8.2-11.0. After filtration, the solid mass is shaken with 9.0 mL of 1 M hydrochloric acid and ca...

We have synthesized cubic and linear polysiloxanes containing polyoxyethylene branches (ASiP-Cu) using tetraethoxysilane, glycol, copper chloride as precursors; the products are stable to self-condensation. The effect of content on chemical structure ASiP-Cu has been established. A special study was aimed at defining modifying sorption characteristics membranes based microporous, optically tran...

1-(2-Pyridylazo-2-naphthol), PAN, has been introduced and extensively employed as a reagent in radioanalytical chemistry in our laboratories. An earlier communication dealt with the determination of micro amounts of Cu(II) by displacement of labelled zinc from Zn-PAN complexl'. The present work is intended to develop a similar method employing Zn-PAN complex for the determination of mercury(II)...

Fluorescence resonance energy transfer in complexes of semiconductor CdSe/ZnS quantum dots with molecules of heterocyclic azo dyes, 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol and 4-(2-pyridylazo) resorcinol, formed at high quantum dot concentration in the polymer pore track membranes were studied by steady-state and transient PL spectroscopy. The effect of interaction between the complexes and free quantum do...
