Frothers havea profoundeffectonbubble size and also flotation efficiency. In present study the effect of type and dosage of frothers on the flotation response of coarse particles of quartz was investigated.  Therefore, flotation response of coarse particles using frothers such as MIBC, pine oil, poly propylene glycol with concentration of 0, 25, 50 and 75...

A continuous application of ethylene (10 mul/l) and propylene (500 mul/l) to potato tubers (Solanum tuberosum L.) resulted in an upsurge of respiration and a concomitant rise in peroxides. When applied in 100% O(2), the effect of ethylene and propylene on respiration and peroxide formation was augmented. Hydrogen cyanide (500 mul/l) mimicked the action of ethylene and propylene inducing a respi...

The hydration of propylene with sulfuric acid catalyst in high-temperature water was investigated using a flow reaction system. The major product was isopropyl alcohol (IPA). Diisopropyl ether, n-propyl alcohol and C6 olefins were produced as byproducts. The temperature dependency of reaction rate for propylene disappearance was measured in the range of 280-400°C at a fixed pressure of 30 MPa. ...

bis(indenyl)zirconium dichloride as a catalyst was synthesized using a modified method at the room temperature. polymerization of ethylene and copolymerization of ethylene and propylene were carried out by this metallocene catalyst. ethylene propylene (p/e) feed ratios of 0.25, 0.5, 1, and 2 were employed into the copolymerization systems. copolymerization conditions like cocatalyst/catalyst ra...

Isopropyl alcohol has been called the first petrochemical (IARC, 1992). It can be prepared via three different methods: indirect hydration of propylene, direct hydration of propylene, and catalytic hydrogenation of acetone. Indirect hydration, also called the sulfuric-acid process, was the only method used to produce isopropanol worldwide until the first commercial direct-hydration process was ...

The adsorption of C3 hydrocarbons propylene, 1-iodopropane, and 1,3-diiodopropane is studied in ultrahigh vacuum on a molybdenum-aluminum alloy formed by molybdenum hexacarbonyl reaction with a planar alumina film grown on a Mo(100) substrate. Carbon-iodine bond scission occurs below approximately 200 K to deposit iodine, and form propyl species from 1-iodopropane and a C3 metallacycle from 1,3...

Fruit ripening in response to treatments with propylene, 1-methycyclopropene (1-MCP), and low temperature was characterized in 'Sanuki Gold' kiwifruit, Actinidia chinensis Planch. Propylene treatment immediately induced rapid fruit softening, increased AC-PG (polygalacturonase) and AC-EXP (expansin) mRNA accumulation, and stimulated an increase in the soluble solid concentration (SSC) and a dec...

PURPOSE Kidney recipients are susceptible to incisional hernia. We studied predisposing factors for incisional hernia in our patients and the results of its repair with propylene mesh. MATERIALS AND METHODS From 1989 to 2002, 589 patients had undergone kidney transplantation in our hospital. Of these, patients who developed incisional hernia were evaluated in this study. The following data we...

A series of iron complexes bearing a bis(imino)pyridine ligand were synthesised and examined as precatalysts for homopolymerisation of propylene. The alkyl substituents attached to the aryl group on the imine nitrogen atoms significantly affected the catalytic activity and molecular weight of the obtained polypropylenes. Copolymerisation of propylene and various allyl comonomers catalysed by ir...

The bacterial metabolism of propylene proceeds by epoxidation to epoxypropane followed by a sequence of three reactions resulting in epoxide ring opening and carboxylation to form acetoacetate. Coenzyme M (2-mercaptoethanesulfonic acid) (CoM) plays a central role in epoxide carboxylation by serving as the nucleophile for epoxide ring opening and the carrier of the C(3) unit that is ultimately c...
