This paper studies the influence of two pH modifiers, namely sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and sodium carbonate (Na2C03), on the flotation of celestite ore using sodium oleate as the collector and sodium silicate (Na2SiO 3) as the depressant. The use of Na2CO 3 provides the best results for the concentration of celestite, under the same experimental conditions. © 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights...

"Aluminium hydroxide dissolves in acids. From its solution in hydrochloric acid, an aluminlum salt, aluminium chloride A1C13, 6H20, is obtained. I t also combines with strong bases, dissolving for instance in a solution of sodium hydroxide and forming an aluminate, NaA102 . . . . According to the best knowledge we have on the subject, the molecule of aluminium hydroxide has the following struct...

in an environmentally benign solventless system, aldehydes and ketones were readily converted to their corresponding azines with hydrazine sulfate, sodium hydroxide and alumina in high yield.

A mixture of cation-and anion-exchange resins, in proportions corresponding to their particular exchange properties and charged with calcium hydroxide, removes seawater salts from solution exchanging calcium hydroxide for the sodium chloride. The regenerant is recoverable. A portion of it may be used again without handling.

The influence of sodium hydroxide addition during the thermo-chemical pretreatment of a microbial biomass has been evaluated in terms of particulate chemical oxygen demand (COD) solubilization and anaerobic biodegradability. Both COD solubilization and total solid elimination rates increased with the dose of NaOH added: COD solubilization reached 63%, and total solid elimination was 33% when 5 ...

microorganisms play a major role in initiation and perpetuation of pulpal and periapical diseases. therefore, elimination of the microorganisms present in the root canal system is the fundamental objective of endodontic treatment. the use of mechanical debridement, chemical irrigation or other antimicrobial protocols and intra-canal medicaments are critical to attain this goal. the aim of this ...

the reported work is on the preparation and characterization of polyvinyl alcohol -g- polyacrylic acid (pva-g-paa)/ polybenzimidazole sulfone (pbis) cation exchange membrane used for the electro dialysis of sodium chloride solution. the polymer syrup has been prepared using the grafting method with the help of polyvinyl alcohol and polyacrylic acid in the presence of water solvent. the polymer ...

The solubility of disodium terephthalate in aqueous sodium hydroxide and hydroxide–ethylene glycol mixtures was determined experimentally by temperature analysis, gravimetry titration. experimental results were compared with existing literature data the phase diagrams from −25 to 70 °C. has no considerable dependence on temperature. freezing points solutions vary composition like any other solu...

The effect of 3 protective creams and petrolatum was tested in a repetitive irritation test. On 15 healthy volunteers, the irritants (sodium lauryl sulfate 10%, sodium hydroxide 0.5%, lactic acid 15%, and toluene undiluted) were applied on the paravertebral skin of the mid-back after 30 min pretreatment with the products tested. The volunteers were treated for 9 days. The irritant cutaneous rea...
