The methods devised have been combined with the applicable procedures of Noyes and Bray to introduce provisions for the detection of selenium, germanium, osmium, ruthenium, molybdenum, vanadium, tungsten, tellurium, tantalum, niobium, gold, zirconium, titanium, platinum, palladium, rhodium, iridium, thallium, scandium, yttrium, lanthanum, cerium, thorium, all the other rare earth elements, beryllium, indium, gallium, uranium, rubidium, and cesium. The elements are separated into the following groups: 1. The Selenium Group - Selenium, arsenic, and germanium. 2. The Osmium Group - Osmium and ruthenium. 3. The Formic Acid Group - Antimony, bismuth, molybdenum, tin, vanadium, tungsten, tellurium, tantalum, niobium, zirconium, titanium, gold, mercury, platinum, palladium, rhodium, and iridium. U. The Thiocyanate Group - Silver, lead, thallium, and copper. 5, The Basic Benzoate Group - Scandium, yttrium, lanthanum, cerium, thorium, all other rare earth elements, aluminum, beryllium, Indium, gallium, iron, bismuth, zirconium, titanium, chroaium, uranium, rhodium, and iridium. 6. The Fluoride Group - Magnesium, barium, strontium, and calcium. 7* The Hydroxide Group - Cadmium, manganese, cobalt, and nickel. vi 8. The Residual Oroup - Zinc, tellurium, molybdenum, beryllium, tungsten, and vanadium. 9* The Alkali Group - Lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidiun, cesium, and the ammonium ion. The Formic Acid and Basic Benzoate Groups are divided into sub­ groups in order to facilitate the identification of the elements. The sub-groups of each of these two groups along with the elements present in each are given below. 1. The Formic Acid Oroup. a. The Tantalum Sub-Group - Tantalum, titanium, niobium, zirconium, bismuth, and vanadium. b. The Tungsten Sub-Group - Tin, antimony, tungsten, molyb­ denum, tellurium, and vanadium. c. The Gold Sub-Group - Gold, mercury, platinum, palladium, rhodium, and iridium. 2. The Basic Benzoate Group. a. The Rare Earth Sub-Group - Scandium, indium, thorium, cerium, lanthanum, yttrium, and the other rare earths. b. The Iron Sub-Group - Iron, bismuth, titanium, and zirconium. c. The Aluminum Sub-Group - Aluminum, beryllium, and gallium. d. The Chromium Sub-Group - Chromium, uranium, rhodium, and iridium. The existence of a non-sulfide scheme of analysis which retains all the pedagogical advantages of the traditional system, but lacks many of its inherent disadvantages, should result in added emphasis being placed on the presentation of qualitative analysis to first year students. The availability of an expanded system based on the same approach which vii Is suitable for presentation to advanced students should Increase the rate of adoption of this scheme. viii A SYSTEM FOR THE QUALITATIVE ANALYSIS FOR THE RARE ELEMENTS BY A NON-SULFIDE SCHEME CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION The problem of teaching the chemistry of the metal ions would be a difficult one indeed if the material were presented to the student in a direct fashion. The primary difficulty would lie in the great manber of isolated facts, with no immediate application of this information, which would be presented to the student. More­ over, the formulation of sufficiently detailed laboratory exercises to demonstrate the properties of all the elements would be a formi­ dable if not impossible task. The effect on the student would be the stifling of his interest at the precise moment when he is in need of his greatest amount of motivation. A solution to the problem of teaching this phase of inorganic chemistry to which instructors have resorted for decades is to present it under the guise of qualitative analysis. By the study of a systematic scheme of analysis, the student becomes familiar with the chemical properties of the various elements, and is stim­ ulated by the experience of seeing the immediate application of his knowledge to the solution of chemical problems. The fundamentals of chemical equilibria are illustrated in the laboratory in such a manner that the degree of retention is high. Therefore, the student learns the material in an organized and connected fashion, witnesses 1 2 the Immediate application of his knowledge of the chemical properties of the elements and of chemical equilibria, acquires the laboratory techniques required in subsequent courses, and, above all, is moti­ vated instead of being repelled at a time which is most

Antunes2, Xianying Han1, Saveria Santangelo 3, Gudrun Scholz1, Anabela A. Valente 2*, Nicola Pinna 1* & Patrícia A. Russo1* 1234567890():,; Niobium pentoxides are promising acid catalysts for the conversion of biomass into fuels and chemicals. Developing new synthesis routes is essential for designing niobium pentoxide catalysts with improved activity for specific practical processes. Here we show a synthesis approach in acetophenone, which produces nanostructured niobium pentoxides with varying structure and acidity that act as efficient acid catalysts. The oxides have orthorhombic structures with different extents of distortions and coordinatively unsaturated metal atoms. A strong dependence is observed between the type and strength of the acid sites and specific structural motifs. Ultrasmall niobium pentoxide nanoparticles, which have strong Brønsted acidity, as well as Lewis acidity, give product yields of 96% (3 h, 140 °C, 100% conversion), 85% (3 h, 140 °C, 86% conversion), and 100% (3 h, 110 °C, 100% conversion) in the reac- tions of furfuryl alcohol, 5-(hydroxymethyl)furfural, and α-angelica lactone with ethanol, respectively. 1 Institut für Chemie and IRIS Adlershof, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Berlin, Germany. 2 Department of Chemistry, CICECO, University of Aveiro, Aveiro, Portugal. 3 Dipartimento di Ingegneria Civile, dell’Energia, dell’Ambiente e dei Materiali (DICEAM), Università “Mediterranea”, Reggio Calabria, Italy. *email: [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] COMMUNICATIONS CHEMISTRY | (2019) 2:129 | https://doi.org/10.1038/s42004-019-0231-3 | www.nature.com/commschem 1 ARTICLE COMMUNICATIONS CHEMISTRY | https://doi.org/10.1038/s42004-019-0231-3 iobium pentoxides show high potential as acid catalysts will also allow getting insights into the structure–acidity–activity Nfor the sustainable production of fuels and chemicals from relationships.

  • Niobium(V) Oxide Patinal®
    Product Information Niobium(V) Oxide Patinal ® GENERAL INFORMATION Niobium pentoxide is especially suited for IAD processes and a suitable alternative to TiO 2 with its high refractive index and low absorption. However the layers may show some absorption when deposited by conventional thermal evaporation. Similar to tantalum pentoxide, niobium pentoxide emits oxygen during melting and evaporation, requiring reactive evaporation. Due to the similarities in the process for those two materials, Nb 2O5 is a close alternative to Ta 2O5 and, in contrary to tantalum, not included on the list of “conflict minerals” mentioned in the Dodd-Franck Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. AREAS OF APPLICATION • Multi-layer coatings for laser mirrors and beam splitters • Anti-reflection coatings on glass in VIS and NIR THIN FILM PROPERTIES Chemical Formula Nb 2O5 Range of Transparency 380 nm – 7 µm Refractive index at 500 nm • conventional T s = 300 °C / no IAD ~ 2.25 – 2.30 • IAD – Ts = RT ~ 2.30 – 2.35 Thin film stress Compressive The optical properties of the thin film are strongly dependent on the deposition rate, substrate temperature and oxygen partial pressure.

  • 1 Thermodynamic Evaluation of the Propensity of Niobium to Absorb
    Thermodynamic Evaluation of the Propensity of Niobium to Absorb Hydrogen During Fabrication of Superconducting Radio Frequency Accelerator Cavities Richard E. Ricker Materials Performance Group Metallurgy Division Materials Science and Engineering Laboratory National Institute of Standards and Technology US Department of Commerce Gaithersburg, MD 20899-8553 ABSTRACT During the fabrication of niobium superconducting radio frequency (SRF) particle accelerator cavities procedures are used that chemically or mechanically remove the passivating surface film of niobium pentoxide (Nb2O5). Removal of this film will expose the underlying niobium metal and allow it to react with the processing environment. If these reactions produce hydrogen at sufficient concentrations and rates, then hydrogen will be absorbed and diffuse into the metal. High hydrogen activities could result in supersaturation and the nucleation of hydride phases. If the metal repassivates at the conclusion of the processing step and the passive film blocks hydrogen egress, then the absorbed hydrogen or hydrides could be retained and alter the performance of the metal during subsequent processing steps or in-service. This report examines the feasibility of this hypothesis by identifying the postulated events, conditions, and reactions and determining if each is consistent with accepted scientific principles, literature, and data. Established precedent for similar events in other systems was found in the scientific literature and thermodynamic analysis found that the postulated reactions were not only energetically favorable, but produced large driving forces. The hydrogen activity or fugacity required for the reactions to be at equilibrium was determined used to indicate the propensity for hydrogen evolution, absorption, and hydride nucleation. The influence of processing conditions and kinetics on the proximity of hydrogen surface coverage to these theoretical values is discussed.

Linear sweep voltammetry and potential step were techniques used for electrochemical experiments. The simultaneous and consecutive electrochemical re- duction of water, nitrate and sulphate ions provided an alkaline environment with oxygen in the near vi- cinity of the working cathode, which in combination with the present niobium ions, produced niobium oxides and/or oxyhydroxides on the glassy carbon substrate. The formed deposits were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectroscopy and appear to consist of NbO, NbO2 and Nb2O5. Both the niobium and acid concentration of the electrolytes used influenced the morphology and particle size of the deposits. The formation of niobium-fluoride and hydrogen-niobiumoxide com- plexes is addressed. Key words: electrochemical deposition; niobium oxides; acidic solution; glassy carbon ФОРМИРАЊЕ НА ФИЛМОВИ ОД ОКСИДИ НА НИОБИУМ СО ЕЛЕКТРОЛИЗА ОД КИСЕЛИ РАСТВОРИ НА СТАКЛЕСТА ГРАФИТНА ЕЛЕКТРОДА Во овој труд е изучувано формирањето на филмови на оксиди од ниобиум што се одвива без пероксидни медијатори од три различни водни раствори со различни рН вредности на стаклеста графитна електрода.
