A cationic polyacrylamide (CPAM) dispersion, the copolymer of acrylamide (AM) and acryloyloxyethyltrimethyl ammonium chloride (DAC), has been synthesized through dispersion polymerization in aqueous ammonium sulfate ((NH4)2SO4) solution. The polymerization was initiated by tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) and ferrisulfas (FeSO4) using poly(dimethyl diallyl ammonium chloride) (PDMDAAC) as the sta...

BACKGROUND Novel mono N-alkyl quaternary ammonium salts (3a-f) were prepared using the Menschutkin reaction from the cage adamanzane type aminal 1,3,6,8-tetraazatricyclo[4.3.1.13,8]undecane (TATU) and alkyl iodides, such as methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl, pentyl and hexyl iodide (2a-f), in dry acetonitrile at room temperature. RESULTS The structures of these new quaternary ammonium salts were e...

The title compound, ammonium potassium iron(III) phosphate fluoride, (NH(4))(0.875)K(0.125)FePO(4)F, is built from zigzag chains (∞) (1){[FeO(4)F(2)](7-)}, with Fe(3+) in a distorted octahedral coordination, extending along both the [011] and [01] directions. These chains are made up of alternating trans-[FeO(4)F(2)] and cis-[FeO(4)F(2)] octa-hedra via shared F-atom corners, and are linked by P...

Waterborne fluoropolymer emulsions were synthesized using the one-step semi-continuous seed emulsion polymerization of chlorotrifluoroethylene (CTFE), vinyl acetate (VAc), n-butyl acrylate (BA), Veova 10, and acrylic acid (AA). The main physical parameters of the polymer emulsions were tested and analyzed. Characteristics of the polymer films such as thermal stability, glass transition temperat...

Resident Physician, Medical College Hospital, Calcutta. As hydrofluoric acid has lately been used with apparent success in the treatment of goitre (E. Woakes in Lancet, p. 448, vol. I., 1881); and still more recently a fluorine salt?the ammonium fluoride has gained in Calcutta (Dr. Coates in p. 26 of Indian Medical Gazette for current year) not a little reputation for the discussion of enlarged...

The reactivity of microsolvated fluoride ions, F (CH3OH)0–2, with methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, and t-butyl bromide is evaluated over a broad range of temperatures. Significant decreases in reactivity are observed as either solvation or temperature increases. Increasing solvation increases sensitivity to the reaction barrier as revealed by a larger temperature dependence. These reactions are dominat...

Butyl lactate is a green solvent produced from renewable materials through the reaction of ammonium with n-butanol. It could be source material for valuable products such as propylene glycol, acrylic acid, its derivatives, and cyclic monomer polylactic acid (PLA)—lactate. In this study, we present novel non-catalytic interactions n-butanol carried out in temperature range 130–170 °C closed syst...

New p-tert-butyl thiacalix[4]arenes differently substituted at the lower rim with amide, hydroxyl and ester groups were synthesized. Binding properties of the compounds toward some tetrabutylammonium salts n-Bu(4)NX (X = F(-), Cl(-), Br(-), I(-), CH(3)CO(2)(-), H(2)PO(4)(-), NO(3)(-)) were studied by UV spectroscopy. It was found that the stoichiometry of the complexes, generally, is 1 : 1, and...

A procedure for the synthesis of multifunctional europium(III)-doped gadolinium(III) fluoride (Eu:GdF3) nanoparticles (~85 nm) with quasispherical shape by precipitation at 120 °C from diethylene glycol solutions containing lanthanide chlorides and an ionic liquid (1-Butyl, 2-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate) as fluoride source has been developed. These nanoparticles were polycrystalline and...
