Thermodynamic modelling and phase relations of cementitious systemsStronach, Stuart Andrew January 1996 (has links)
Thermodynamic modelling is a relatively new technique with which to study the interactions of ionic species in solution. Using the computer program PHREEQE, and the modified version PHRQPITZ, the effects of a range of reactive anions and cations on the components of cementitious systems are studied with respect to cement barrier performance in a nuclear waste repository. A review is made of the underlying thermodynamic theory, and of the development of the technique of thermodynamic modelling, before concentrating on the program PHREEQE and the method by which it performs calculations. The technique is then applied to the CaO-SiO<sub>2</sub>-H<sub>2</sub>O system under the influence of sulfate, carbonate, chloride, arsenite, Na<sub>2</sub>O, K<sub>2</sub>O, NaCl and MgSO<sub>4</sub>. The effects of NaCl and MgSO<sub>4</sub> on certain sub-systems within the CaO-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>-H<sub>2</sub>O system are also studied. It is calculated that Ca(OH)<sub>2</sub> and CSH are the main pH maintaining phases, of which CSH has the greater stability under the influence of the species considered. AFm and AFt phases also act as pH buffers, but they are quantitatively less important. A review is made of solid solutions between members of the AFm and AFt groups of minerals. Experimental methods are used to study the extent of solid solution between monosulfoaluminate and Friedel's salt, and between monosulfoaluminate and C<sub>4</sub>AH<sub>13</sub>. In the case of the former, no solid solution is observed, but an intermediate phase, designated Kuzel's salt, is observed. In the latter case, two areas of solid solution at low and high sulfate content, separated by a miscibility gap, are detected. No evidence is found to support the existence of calcium hemisulfoaluminate.

Comparison of lipid membrane-water partitioning with various organic solvent-water partitions of neutral species and ionic species: Uniqueness of cerasome as a model for the stratum corneum in partition processesZhang, K., Fahr, A., Abraham, M.H., Acree, W.E. Jr., Tobin, Desmond J., Liu, Xiangli 08 June 2015 (has links)
Yes / Lipid membrane-water partitions (e.g., immobilized artificial membrane systems where the lipid membrane is a neutral phospholipid monolayer bound to gel beads) were compared to various organic solvent-water partitions using linear free energy relationships. To this end, we also measured the retention factors of 36 compounds (including neutral and ionic species) from water to liposomes made up of 3-sn-phosphatidylcholine and 3-sn-phosphatidyl-l-serine (80:20, mol/mol), employing liposome electrokinetic chromatography in this work. The results show that lipid membranes exhibit a considerably different chemical environment from those of organic solvents. For both neutral species and ionic species, partitions into the more polar hydroxylic solvents are chemically closer to partition into the lipid membrane as compared to partitions into the less polar hydroxylic solvents and into aprotic solvents. This means that solutes partition into the polar parts of lipid membranes, regardless of whether they are charged or not. In addition, cerasome (i.e., liposome composed mainly of stratum corneum lipids) was compared with regular phospholipid liposomes as a possible model for human stratum corneum in partitions. It was found that the cerasome-water partition exhibits a better chemical similarity to skin permeation. This is probably due to the unique structures of ceramides that occur in cerasome and in the stratum corneum lipid domain. We further show that membranes in membrane-water partitions exhibit very different properties.

An Equation for the Prediction of Human Skin Permeability of Neutral Molecules, Ions and Ionic SpeciesZhang, K., Abraham, M.H., Liu, Xiangli 22 February 2017 (has links)
Yes / Experimental values of permeability coefficients, as log Kp, of chemical compounds across human skin were collected by carefully screening the literature, and adjusted to 37 °C for the effect of temperature. The values of log Kp for partially ionized acids and bases were separated into those for their neutral and ionic species, forming a total data set of 247 compounds and species (including 35 ionic species). The obtained log Kp values have been regressed against Abraham solute descriptors to yield a correlation equation with R2 = 0.866 and SD = 0.432 log units. The equation can provide valid predictions for log Kp of neutral molecules, ions and ionic species, with predictive R2 = 0.858 and predictive SD = 0.445 log units calculated by the leave-one-out statistics. The predicted log Kp values for Na+ and Et4N+ are in good agreement with the observed values. We calculated the values of log Kp of ketoprofen as a function of the pH of the donor solution, and found that log Kp markedly varies only when ketoprofen is largely ionized. This explains why models that neglect ionization of permeants still yield reasonable statistical results. The effect of skin thickness on log Kp was investigated by inclusion of two indicator variables, one for intermediate thickness skin and one for full thickness skin, into the above equation. The newly obtained equations were found to be statistically very close to the above equation. Therefore, the thickness of human skin used makes little difference to the experimental values of log Kp.

Partition of neutral molecules and ions from water to o-nitrophenyl octyl ether and of neutral molecules from the gas phase to o-nitrophenyl octyl etherAbraham, M.H., Acree Jr, W.E., Liu, Xiangli 2018 February 1916 (has links)
Yes / We have set out an equation for partition of 87 neutral molecules from water to o-nitrophenyl octyl ether, NPOE, an equation for partition of the 87 neutral molecules and 21 ionic species from water to NPOE, and an equation for partition of 87 neutral molecules from the gas phase to NPOE. Comparison with equations for partition into other solvents shows that, as regards partition of neutral (nonelectrolyte) compounds, NPOE would be a good model for 1,2-dichloroethane and for nitrobenzene. In terms of partition of ions and ionic species, NPOE is quite similar to 1,2-dichloroethane and not far away from other aprotic solvents such as nitrobenzene.

Novel diorganoantimony(III) fluorides containing ligands with pendant arms, R2SbF (5), (R)PhSbF (6) [R = 2-(2′,6′-iPr2C6H3N[double bond, length as m-dash]CH)C6H4], R′′2SbF (7) and (R′′)PhSbF (8) [R′′ = 2-(Me2NCH2)C6H4], were prepared via the ionic derivatives [R2Sb]+[PF6]− (1), [(R)PhSb]+[PF6]− (2), [R′′2Sb]+[SbF6]− (4) and [(R′′)PhSb]+[SbF6]− (obtained in situ) by treatment with [Bu4N]F·3H2O. The ionic species used as starting materials as well as [R′2Sb]+[PF6]− (3) [R′ = 2-(2′,4′,6′-Me3C6H2N[double bond, length as m-dash]CH)C6H4] were obtained from the corresponding bromides or chlorides and Tl[PF6] or Ag[SbF6]. The compounds were investigated by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy in solution, MS and IR spectroscopy in the solid state. The molecular structures of the ionic species 1·2CH2Cl2 and 3·2CHCl3 as well as of the fluorides 5–8 were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. / Dieser Beitrag ist aufgrund einer (DFG-geförderten) Allianz- bzw.

Estrutura e ambiente local de dimetil sulfóxido (DMSO) em diferentes meios iônicos / Structure and local environment of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) in different ionic mediaAvila, Jocasta Neves Libório de 29 October 2018 (has links)
Apesar de ser utilizado há muito tempo como solvente para espécies orgânicas e inorgânicas, bem como carreador de fármacos, muitos aspectos relativos à auto-associação intermolecular do dimetil sulfóxido (DMSO) e às suas interações com espécies iônicas são ainda motivos de controvérsia na literatura. No presente estudo, a estrutura e ambiente local de dimetil sulfóxido (DMSO) em diferentes meios iônicos foram estudados por meio de três abordagens diferentes. Na primeira abordagem, o efeito de não-coincidência Raman (NCR) observado na banda atribuída ao modo ν(S=O) do DMSO, ca. 1050 cm-1, foi investigado para o líquido puro e em soluções de tetracloreto de carbono (CCl4) e água. Além disso, foi investigado o efeito de espécies iônicas (Kl, KSCN, KBr, TBAN3, TBAOCN, LiClO4, Mg(ClO4)2) na frequência ν(S=O), bem como no NCR das soluções. Os resultados de NCR juntamente com as técnicas de infravermelho, RMN e de medidas de propriedades físico-químicas mostraram que essas espécies iônicas não somente afetam a estrutura de associação do DMSO, como são capazes de interagir fortemente com o solvente. Na segunda abordagem, com a finalidade de modular as propriedades de um líquido iônico, fez-se a análise estrutural das misturas envolvendo DMSO e água como solventes e o líquido iônico EAN como soluto por meio das técnicas de espalhamento de raios-X e de nêutrons. Os resultados mostraram que a estrutura cátion-ânion do EAN é afetada pela presença de DMSO e, que em ambos os solventes são evidentes fortes ligações de hidrogênio entre o cátion EA+ e os oxigênios do solvente e do ânion nitrato. As moléculas de água não afetam drasticamente a estrutura do EAN, pois seu caráter doador/aceptor de LH e seu tamanho permite a formação de pontes entre cátion e o ânion, no entanto, EAN consegue distorcer a rede tridimensional de ligação de hidrogênio da água. Por outro lado, as moléculas de DMSO afastam os ânions da região polar do EA+ na competição pela formação de LH com o cátion e o EAN, por sua vez, provoca a ruptura das estruturas de associação do DMSO. Na terceira abordagem, misturas envolvendo três diferentes SEPs (uma classe de líquidos iônicos); Relina, MUCHCl e DMUCHCl; com DMSO foram investigadas por meio de suas propriedades físico-químicas e por espectroscopia Raman, tendo em vista modular as propriedades dos SEPs. Neste caso, os resultados não apontaram para interações fortes e específicas envolvendo as espécies iônicas e o DMSO, mas a um maior empacotamento do sistema, onde os desvios de suas propriedades físico-químicas com relação à idealidade são negativos e sua mobilidade iônica juntamente com a análise dos espectros vibracionais não evidenciaram interações específicas. No entanto, as viscosidades e densidades diminuíram nas misturas e a mobilidade iônica foi favorecida. / Although it has long been used as a solvent for organic and inorganic species, as well as drug carriers, many aspects concerning the intermolecular self-association of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and their interactions with ionic species are still controversial in the literature. In the present study, the structure and local environment of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) in different ionic media were studied using three different approaches. In the first approach, the Raman non-coincidence effect (NCE) observed in the band assigned to the DMSO ν(S = O) mode, ca. 1050 cm-1, was investigated for the pure liquid and in its solutions of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) and water. In addition, the effect of ionic species (K1, KSCN, KBr, TBAN3, TBAOCN, LiClO4, Mg (ClO4)2) on the frequency ν(S = O) as well as the NCE of the solutions were investigated. The results of NCR together with the infrared, NMR and physico-chemical properties measurements showed that these ionic species not only affect the association structure of DMSO, but are also capable of interacting strongly with the solvent. In the second approach, with the purpose of modulating the properties of an ionic liquid, the structural analysis of the mixtures involving DMSO and water as solvents and the ionic liquid EAN as a solute were carried out by X-ray and neutron scattering techniques. The results showed that the cation-anion structure of the EAN is affected by the presence of DMSO and that in both solvents strong hydrogen bonds between the EA+ cation and the oxygen from solvent and from nitrate anion are evident. The water molecules do not affect the structure of the EAN drastically, because its LH donor/acceptor character and its size allows the formation of bridges between cation and anion, however, EAN can distort the hydrogen bonding three-dimensional network in water. On the other hand, the DMSO molecules repels the anions from the polar head of EA+ in the competition in forming LH with the cation, however EAN break down DMSO association structures. In the third approach, mixtures involving three different SEPs (a class of ionic liquids); Relina, MUCHCl and DMUCHCl; with DMSO were investigated by means of their physicochemical properties and by Raman spectroscopy, in order to modulate the properties of SEPs. In this case, the results did not point to strong and specific interactions involving the ionic species and DMSO, but to a greater packaging of the system, where the deviations of its physicochemical properties with respect to the ideality are negative and its ionic mobility together with the analysis of the vibrational spectra showed no specific interactions. However, the viscosities and densities decreased in the mixtures and the ionic mobility was favored.
