Environmental Protection Agency. SW-846 methods are designed to be used with equipment from any manufacturer that results in suitable method performance (as assessed by accuracy, precision, detection 1 imits and matrix compati bi1 ity) . In several SW-846 methods, equipment specifications and settings are given for tfie specific instrument used during method development, or subsequently approved for use in the method. These references are made to provide the best possible guidance to laboratories using this manual. Equipment not specified in the method may be used as long as the 1 aboratory achieves equivalent or superior method performance. If a1 ternate equipment is used, the 1 aboratory must foll ow the manufacturer's instructions for their particular instrument. Since many types and sizes of glassware and supplies are commercially available, and since it is possible to prepare reagents and standards in many different ways, those specified in these methods may be replaced by any similar types as long as this substitution does not affect the overall qua1 ity of the analyses. DISCLAIMER - 1 Revision 0 July 1992 ABSTRACT Test Methods for Evaluating So7 id Waste, Phyqica7/Chemica7 Methods (SW-846) provides test procedures and guidance which are recommended for use in conducting the evaluations and measurements needed to comply with the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), Public Law 94-580. These methods are approved by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for obtaining data to satisfy the requirements of 40 CFR Parts 122 through 270. This manual presents the state-of- the-art in routine analytical testing adapted for the RCRA program. It contains procedures for field and laboratory qua1 ity control, sampl ing, determining hazardous constituents in wastes, determining the hazardous characteristics of wastes (toxicity, ignitability, reactivity, and corrosivity), and for determining physical properties of wastes. It also contains guidance on how to select appropriate methods. Several of the hazardous waste regulations under Subtitle C of RCRA require that specific testing methods described in SW-846 be employed for certain appl ications. Refer to 40 Code of Federa 7 Regulations (CFR) , Parts 260 through 270, for those specific requirements. Any re1iable analytical method may be used to meet other requirements under Subtitle C of RCRA. - ABSTRACT - 1 Revision 1 July 1992 TABLE OF CONTENTS ------------------- VOLUME ONE SECTION A ------------------- PART I METHODS FOR ANALYTES AND PROPERTIES CHAPTER ONE -- QUALITY CONTROL 1.0 Introduction 2.0 QA Project Plan 3.0 Fieldoperations 4.0 Laboratory Operations 5.0 Definitions 6.0 References CHAPTER TWO -- CHOOSING THE CORRECT PROCEDURE 2.1 Purpose 2.2 Required Information 2.3 Imp1 ementing the Guidance 2.4 Characteristics 2.5 Ground Water 2.6 References CHAPTER THREE -- METALLIC ANALYTES 3.1 Sampl ing Considerations 3.2 Sampl e Preparation Methods Method 3005A: Acid Digestion of Waters for Total Recoverable or Dissolved Metals for Analysis by F1 ame Atomic Absorption (FLAA) or Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) Spectroscopy Method 3010A: Acid Digestion of Aqueous Samples and Extracts for Total Metals for Analysis by Flame Atomic Absorption (FLAA) or Inductively Coup1 ed Pl asma (ICP) Spectroscopy Method 3015: Microwave Assisted Acid Digestion of Aqueous Samples and Extracts CONTENTS - 1 Revision 3 January 1995 Method 3020A: Acid Digestion of Aqueous Samples and Extracts for Total Metals for Analysis by Graphite Furnace Atomic Absorption (GFAA) Spectroscopy Method 3040: Dissolution Procedure for Oils, Greases, or Waxes Method 3050A: Acid Digestion of Sediments, Sludges, and Soils Method 3051: Microwave Assisted Acid Digest ion of Sediments, Sludges, Soils, and Oils 3.3 Methods for Determination of Metals Method 6010A: Inductively Coupled Plasma-Atomic Emission Spectroscopy Method 6020: Inductively Coupled Plasma - Mass Spectrometry Met hod 7000A: Atomic Absorption Methods Method 7020: Aluminum (AA, Direct Aspiration) Method 7040: Antimony (AA, Direct Aspiration) Method 7041: Antimony (AA, Furnace Technique) Method 7060A: Arsenic (AA, Furnace Technique) Method 7061A: Arsenic (AA, Gaseous Hydride) Method 7062: Antimony and Arsenic (AA, Borohydride Reduction) Method 7080A: Barium (AA, Direct Aspiration) Method 7081: Bari urn (AA, Furnace Technique) Method 7090: Beryllium (AA, Direct Aspiration) Method 7091: Beryllium (AA, Furnace Technique) Method 7130: Cadmium (AA, Direct Aspiration) Method 7131A: Cadmium (AA, Furnace Technique) Method 7140: Calcium (AA, Direct Aspiration) Method 7190: Chromium (AA, Direct Aspiration) Method 7191: Chromium (AA, Furnace Technique) Method 7195: Chromium?

  • Micellar Assembly and Disassembly of Organoselenium Block Copolymers Through Alkylation and Dealkylation Processes
    polymers Communication Micellar Assembly and Disassembly of Organoselenium Block Copolymers through Alkylation and Dealkylation Processes Taejun Eom and Anzar Khan * Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering, Korea University, 145 Anam-Ro, Seongbuk-Gu, Seoul 02841, Korea; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +82-2-3290-4859 Abstract: The aim of this work is to demonstrate that the alkylation and dealkylation of selenium atoms is an effective tool in controlling polymer amphiphilicity and, hence, its assembly and dis- assembly process in water. To establish this concept, poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(glycidyl methacrylate) was prepared. A post-synthesis modification with phenyl selenolate through a base- catalyzed selenium-epoxy ‘click’ reaction then gave rise to the side-chain selenium-containing block copolymer with an amphiphilic character. This polymer assembled into micellar structures in water. However, silver tetrafluoroborate-promoted alkylation of the selenium atoms resulted in the forma- tion of hydrophilic selenonium tetrafluoroborate salts. This enhancement in the chemical polarity of the second polymer block removed the amphiphilic character from the polymer chain and led to the disassembly of the micellar structures. This process could be reversed by restoring the original amphiphilic polymer character through the dealkylation of the cations.

  • TLC Conditions.Pdf
    DETERMINATION OF OPTIMUM CONDITIONS FOR SEPARATION BY TLC PURPOSE Experimentally determine the optimum thin layer chromatography conditions for separating a mixture of three structurally related aromatic compounds. MATERIALS • pre-cut TLC plates containing UV indicator • two capped bottles or covered beakers to hold TLC plates • capillary pipets for spotting TLC plates • solution mixture of the three test substances combined • solutions of each pure test substance • variety of chromatography solvents • ultraviolet light source THEORY Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) utilizes a glass plate or plastic sheet coated with an absorbent such as silica gel. This serves as the stationary phase. After a mixture is "spotted" onto a position near the bottom this plate, the plate is placed in a shallow pool of solvent in a beaker or jar. This solvent (the mobile phase) travels up the plate, carrying the mixture components with it. However, the components of the spotted mixture travel at different rates based on factors such as chemical polarity and size. Chemists seek the best solvent conditions that will achieve optimum separation of the components from the initial mixture. Understanding the concept that "like-dissolves-like", compounds that are more polar will tend to dissolve and stay soluble in polar solvents. Therefore, use of a polar solvent would result in rapid movement of a polar compound up a TLC plate. Lesser polarity components in the mixture would not move up the plate as rapidly. In this lab, you should consider the structural differences between the three compounds you are to separate. You must then consider the relative polarities that have been established for common laboratory solvents.

The solubility of a substance fundamentally depends on the used solvent as well as on temperature and pressure. The extent of the solubility of a substance in a specific solvent is measured as the saturation concentration where adding more solute does not increase the concentration of the solution. Most often, the solvent is a liquid, which can be a pure substance or a mixture.[1] One may also speak of solid solution, but rarely of solution in a gas (see vapor-liquid equilibrium instead). The extent of solubility ranges widely, from infinitely soluble (fully miscible[2]) such as ethanol in water, to poorly soluble, such as silver chloride in water. The term insoluble is often applied to poorly or very poorly soluble compounds. Under certain conditions, the equilibrium solubility can be exceeded to give a so-called supersaturated solution, which is metastable.[3] Solubility is not to be confused with the ability to dissolve or liquefy a substance, because the solution might occur not only because of dissolution but also because of a chemical reaction.

  • Capture of Acidic Gases from Flue Gas by Deep Eutectic Solvents
    processes Review Capture of Acidic Gases from Flue Gas by Deep Eutectic Solvents Yan Wang 1 , Shuhang Ren 1,*, Yucui Hou 2 and Weize Wu 1,* 1 State Key Laboratory of Chemical Resource Engineering, Beijing University of Chemical Technology, Beijing 100029, China; [email protected] 2 Department of Chemistry, Taiyuan Normal University, Jinzhong 030619, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] (S.R.); [email protected] (W.W.) Abstract: Up to now, many kinds of deep eutectic solvents (DESs) were investigated for the capture of acidic gases from flue gases. In this review, non-functionalized and functionalized DESs, including binary and ternary DESs, for SO2, CO2 and NO capture, are summarized based on the mechanism of absorption, physical interaction or chemical reaction. New strategies for improving the absorption capacity are introduced in this review. For example, a third component can be introduced to form a ternary DES to suppress the increase in viscosity and improve the CO2 absorption capacity. DESs, synthesized with halogen salt hydrogen bond acceptors (HBAs) and functionalized hydrogen bond donors (HBDs), can be used for the absorption of SO2 and NO with high absorption capacities and low viscosities after absorption, due to physicochemical interaction between gases and DESs. Emphasis is given to introducing the absorption capacities of acidic gases in these DESs, the mechanism of the absorption, and the ways to enhance the absorption capacity.

  • Enhanced Corrosion Protection Performance by Organic-Inorganic
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Enhanced Corrosion Protection Performance by Organic-Inorganic Materials Containing Thiocarbonyl Received: 20 March 2018 Accepted: 5 July 2018 Compounds Published: xx xx xxxx Wail Al Zoubi & Young Gun Ko In the present study, the synergistic efect on the corrosion protection properties of Mg alloys subjected to plasma electrolytic oxidation and chemically treated with thiourea as an inhibitor is investigated by surface microstructure analysis, evaluation of the electrochemical performance, and chemical quantum calculations. Physical adsorption of thiourea on the inorganic material surface might be due to physical interaction between thiourea with a low ionization potential serving as an electron donor and the inorganic components with high electron afnities acting as acceptors. The results from potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy for organic-inorganic coating reveal a clear decrease in the corrosion rate owing to the introduced thiourea. As the lightest materials, magnesium alloys have been used in a broad range of applications with promising futures in corrosion science, automobiles, biomedicine, computer parts, and electronic industry, owing to their low density, high specifc strength, castability, machinability, and high thermal conductivity1. However, poor cor- rosion and wear resistance and high chemical reactivity of magnesium constitutes have limited the widespread use of Mg alloys in many practical applications2–4. Plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) is an innovative technique to improve the anti-corrosion ability of Mg and its alloys. It is considered one of the most efective ways to improve the properties of light-weight metallic materi- als and to impart new functionalities as well as improve the adhesion of the subsequent coating5.

  • Direct Dissolution of Cellulose: Background, Means and Applications
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Chalmers Publication Library Chapter 6 Direct Dissolution of Cellulose: Background, Means and Applications Carina Olsson and Gunnar Westman Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/52144 1. Introduction Being the main structural component in plants, cellulose is by far the most abundant organic polymer on earth. The highest quantity of cellulose is found in the secondary walls of higher plants, such as wood, were the polymer is incorporated in a matrix of lignin and shorter heteropolysaccharides such as hemicelluloses and pectins. Cellulose is also found in some fungi and algae, in the marine animal family of tunicates and as an extracellular product of some bacteria. In theory, cellulose is an inexhaustible resource and yields 1.5x1012 tons of biomass every year. Despite the fact that cellulose is available in any plant, wood pulp provides the main part of cellulose used today, for example in board, paper and textile. Historically, cellulose has been used for as long as man has existed, first as fuel and shelter and later for clothing and writing material such as papyrus. Cotton was domesticated thousands of years ago and the soft fiber surrounding the cotton seed was used for making textiles in many parts of the world. Cotton is still the main source of cellulose for textile but the demand for wood based raw material is increasing due to the environmental drawbacks associated with cotton cultivation and processing, such as high water and pesticide usage.

In chemistry, polarity refers to a separation of electric charge leading to a molecule having an electric dipole. Polar molecules can bond together due to dipole. Dipole intermolecular forces between one molecule (or part of a large molecule) with asymmetrical charge distribution and another molecule also with asymmetrical charge distribution. Molecular polarity is dependent on the dierence in electronegativity between atoms in a compound and the asymmetry of the compound's structure. For example, a molecule of water is polar because of the unequal sharing of its electrons in a 'bent' structure, whereas methane is considered non-polar because the carbon shares the electrons with the hydrogen atoms uniformly. Polarity underlies a number of physical properties including surface tension, solubility, and melting and boiling-points. 120 pp. Englisch.

  • Students' Use of Three Different Visual Representations to Interpret
    Students’ Use of three Different Visual Representations to Interpret whether Molecules are Polar or Non-polar Gunnar E. Höst*, Konrad J. Schönborn, and Karljohan E. Lundin Palmerius Division of Media and Information Technology, Department of Science and Technology (ITN), Linköping University, Campus Norrköping, SE-601 74, Norrköping, Sweden * [email protected] Abstract Visualizing molecular properties is often crucial for constructing conceptual understanding in chemistry. However, research has revealed numerous challenges surrounding students’ meaningful interpretation of the relationship between the geometry and electrostatic properties of molecules. This study explored students’ (n=18) use of three visual representations of electrostatic potential to interpret whether molecules are polar or non-polar. The representations consisted of red and blue ‘lobes’ (termed RB) indicating regions of negative and positive potential, a color gradient mapping electrostatic potential on a molecular surface (MAP), and a rendering of the interface between regions of positive and negative potential (ISO). Data on students’ accuracy, time-on-task and evaluation related to the three visual modes was collected via a web-questionnaire. ANOVA indicated that students were significantly more accurate in interpreting ISO, although more than half evaluated this mode the most difficult to use. Furthermore, students took significantly longer to interpret complex than simple molecules using ISO and RB. The results indicate that there may be possible pedagogical
