The effect of pH, dosage of IO4-, dosage of initial phenol and ultrasonic irradiation time on the phenol degradation were examined. Furthermore, the impacts of ion intensity on phenol degradation were examined. The findings indicated that the disgrace ratio advanced in acidic conditions and an upper degradation was achieved in combination processes. The current new investigation examined the effect of ion intensity and the findings determined that the principal intensity of solution is an inactive variable on phenol disgrace with these systems.

Zachariah* Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, and Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, University of Maryland, College Park, Maryland 20742, United States *S Supporting Information ABSTRACT: Iodine pentoxide (I2O5), also known as diiodine pentoxide, is a strong oxidizer which has been recently proposed as an iodine-rich oxidizer in nanoenergetic formulations, whose combustion products lead to molecular iodine as a biocidal agent. However, its highly hygroscopic nature hinders its performance as a strong oxidizer and an iodine releasing agent and prevents its implementation. In this work, we developed a gas phase assisted aerosol spray pyrolysis which enables creation of iron oxide passivated I2O5. Transmission electron microscopy elemental imaging as well as temperature-jump mass spectrometry confirmed the core shell fi nature of the material and the fact that I2O5 could be encapsulated in pure unhydrated form. Combustion performance nds an optimal coating thickness that enables combustion performance similar to a high performing CuO based thermite.

Parkeyb and Mehmet Kesmezb Iodic acids are widely studied in atmospheric and biological applications but their inherent hydrophilic properties introduce complexities that affect their functionality and reactivity. We have shown that iodic acid (HIO3) dehydrates directly into iodine pentoxide (I2O5) in contradiction to the generally accepted multi-step dehydration mechanism where HIO3 dehydrates into HI3O8 first, then dehydrates into I2O5. The generally accepted mechanism is used to determine the concentration of iodic acid by TGA and is only valid for special conditions. The revised mechanism allows for the determination of concentrations of iodic acids under all conditions, and the more specific conditions where the accepted mechanism is Received 6th December 2016 valid are shown.

Abstract: Efficient and cost-effective removal of radioactive iodine (radioiodine) from radioactive contaminated water has become a crucial task, following nuclear power plant disasters. Several materials for removing radioiodine have been reported in the literature. However, most of these materials exhibit some limitations, such as high production cost, slow adsorption kinetics, and poor adsorption capacity. Herein, we present silver/iron oxide nanocomposites (Ag/Fe3O4) for the efficient and specific removal of iodine anions from contaminated water.

    Chemical Resistance 100% SOLIDS EPOXY SYSTEMS CHEMICAL 8300 SYSTEM 8200 SYSTEM 8000 SYSTEM OVERKOTE PLUS HD OVERKOTE HD OVERKRETE HD BASED ON ONE YEAR IMMERSION TESTING –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Acetic Acid (0-15%) G II Acetonitrile LLG L Continuous Immersion Acetone (0-20%) LLL Acetone (20-30%) Suitable for continuous immersion in that chemical (based on LLG Acetone (30-50%) L G I ONE YEAR testing) to assure unlimited service life. Acetone (50-100%) G II Acrylamide (0-50%) LLL G Short-Term Exposure Adipic Acid Solution LLL Alcohol, Isopropyl LLL Suitable for short-term exposure to that chemical such as Alcohol, Ethyl LLG secondary containment (72 hours) or splash and spill Alcohol, Methyl LLI (immediate clean-up). Allyl Chloride LLI Allylamine (0-20%) L L I Allylamine (20-30%) L G I I Not Suitable Allylamine (30-50%) GGI Not suitable for any exposure to that chemical. Aluminum Bromide LL– Aluminum Chloride L L – Aluminum Fluoride (0-25%) L L – This chart shows chemical resistance of our various Aluminum Hydroxide LLL 1 topping materials (90 mils – ⁄4"). These ratings are based on Aluminum Iodide LL– temperatures being ambient. At higher temperatures, chemical Aluminum Nitrate LL– resistance may be effected. When chemical exposure is Aluminum Sodium Chloride L L – minimal to non-existent, a 9000 System–FlorClad™ HD or Aluminum Sulfate LLL 4600 System– BriteCast™ HD may be used. Alums L L L 2-Aminoethoxyethanol Resistance data is listed with the assumption that the material GGG has properly cured for at least four days, at recommended Ammonia – Wet L L – temperatures, prior to any chemical exposure.
