Universitat de Barcelona Universitat de Barcelona Acknowledgements ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This PhD thesis must be addressed to my mother’s memory. She was always proud of me and let me study what I want. She supported me until the end of her days. Although you can not read this THANK YOU GRACIAS!! To my family for their support. Thanks to Miquel Àngel and Teresa for trust me and support me in this thesis and in all other researches performed. They give me the opportunity to work with many techniques and many people in order to achieve satisfactory results in several fields. I should recollect here all the important people that conduct me to here. My first contact with crystallography was early, when I had 16-17 years old. My teacher explains us the seven crystal systems and the 320 point groups. I was amazed about symmetry. But, not only that, he also introduced us, in a certain way, the Kossel crystal and the kink sites for the preffered sites for a crystal growth. In that time, if I had thought about working on this subject I would not have believed it. Thus, my high- school teacher was the first who introduce me in the crystallography. Thank you, wherever you are. Next person was Laura Bayes. In the second year of chemistry degree we decided to assist to crystallography course. During the course she motivated me to study hard this subject. It was a fruitfull course because she and me begun to work in the crystallography department. I think that without her, probably I never started to make research here. For this reason I may say thank you to you. Obviously, our crystallography teacher was Miquel Àngel Cuevas-Diarte. So, a first thanks for him and for Teresa Calvet to let me start my career here while I was studying the chemistry and the material science degrees. About 6 years after that beginning I started this PhD. Thanks to all the ‘aliatges moleculars’ group people who has helped me at some time: Laura, Raquel, Mercedes, Evelyn, Xabier… and also for the rest of the department people: Thomas, Cristina, Montgarri… Big thanks for the people from Turin who make me understand the crystal morphology and the crystal growth. Thank you: Dino, Marco, Marco and Emmanuelle. Thank you for make me so easy and fruitfull my residencies there. Many thanks to Dino for his passion in this project and his hospitality. Than you to his wife Renata for ther lovely meals. Thank you to Carlos Pina for the fruitful experiments of epitaxy in the AFM. To Sander, for the nice pictures taken in the confocal microscopy on a growing surface of nitratine. During the PhD I learnt lots of things from the academic point of view. Apart from all the knowledge in this manuscript I performed some research work about solar thermal energy storage. Thanks to the people of Quality Chemicals to have done with us that Acknowledgements research. We have organized two crystal growth competitions to present high school students this beautiful subject. Next, I have to give a big thank YOU to Heura. We shared a flat during 1 year and a half. They were very pleasant and wonderful days. THANK YOU Heura to be with me in my hardest and sad days after my mother’s dead. Thank you to beer!!! It seems strange but I have lernt to brew in the past 4-5 years. I enjoy a lot to brew and to share the final product. Many people loved every beer I brew: a pleasure for me! Thank you to David and Dani to be friends and to create my outstanding logo! Thank you to Maria to take me out for a beer whenever I need it. To Pilar because she is always there Lastly, I want to give a large THANK YOU to Layita for all the wonderfull days you are with me: love forever! Thank you for the peace I feel at your side. Thank you to make me feel special… thank you to be with me! I hope you enjoy this reading with a good beer. Content GENERAL INTRODUCTION I CHAPTER 1: Alkali nitrates review 1 1.1. INTRODUCTION 3 1.2.

    NITRATE AND NITRITE 29 3. HEALTH EFFECTS 3.1 INTRODUCTION The primary purpose of this chapter is to provide public health officials, physicians, toxicologists, and other interested individuals and groups with an overall perspective on the toxicology of nitrate and nitrite. It contains descriptions and evaluations of toxicological studies and epidemiological investigations and provides conclusions, where possible, on the relevance of toxicity and toxicokinetic data to public health. A glossary and list of acronyms, abbreviations, and symbols can be found at the end of this profile. 3.2 DISCUSSION OF HEALTH EFFECTS BY ROUTE OF EXPOSURE To help public health professionals and others address the needs of persons living or working near hazardous waste sites, the information in this section is organized first by route of exposure (inhalation, oral, and dermal) and then by health effect (e.g., death, systemic, immunological, neurological, reproductive, developmental, and carcinogenic effects). These data are discussed in terms of three exposure periods: acute (14 days or less), intermediate (15–364 days), and chronic (365 days or more). Levels of significant exposure for each route and duration are presented in tables and illustrated in figures. The points in the figures showing no-observed-adverse-effect levels (NOAELs) or lowest- observed-adverse-effect levels (LOAELs) reflect the actual doses (levels of exposure) used in the studies. LOAELs have been classified into "less serious" or "serious" effects. "Serious" effects are those that evoke failure in a biological system and can lead to morbidity or mortality (e.g., acute respiratory distress or death). "Less serious" effects are those that are not expected to cause significant dysfunction or death, or those whose significance to the organism is not entirely clear.

IN previous communications (T., 1905, 87, 761; 1909, 95, 2126; 1910, 97, 1408) one of the authors of the present paper has described several compounds of bismuth nitrite with the alkaline nitrites. These compounds were chiefly remarkable aa affording a method for the gravimetric estimation of sodium, and for its separation from potmsium, owing to the insolubility of msium sodium bismuthinitrite and the non-formation of the corresponding potassium salt (T., 1910, 97, 1408). As it is unusual to find such sharp differences in the behaviour of sodium and potassium salts, the present authors have investigated all the salts of this series which they have been able to obtain, in order to discover, if possible, other facts bearing on this difference in behaviour. The salts which have been obtained all fall into two groups, of which View Article Online BALL AND ABKAM : BlSMUTElINITRlTES. 2111 the general formula are respectively X,Bi(NO,), and X,YBi(N02),. In these formulae X represents any of the metals ammonium, potassium, rubidium, msium, and thallium, whilst Y stands for either lithium, sodium, or silver. There are thus possible five compounds of the X,Bi(NO,), series, or simple bismuthinitrites, and of these, four have been obtained, the attempts to obtain the ammonium salt having been 60 far unsuccessful owing to the great instability of concentrated solutions of ammonium nitrite in the presence of acid.

    Some Physical Properties of Ionic Melts in Relation to Their Structure

    1. SOME PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF IONIC MELTS IN RELATION TO THEIR STRUCTURE By William Ewen Smith, B.Sc., A.R.C.S.T. A Thesis submitted to the University of London for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Department of Chemical Engineering and Chemical Technology, Imperial College of Science and Technology, London, S.W.7. October 12§.2. 2. Abstract. The unusual physical behaviour of the melt of potassium nitrate and calcium nitrate had previously been reported. In the present study, the liquid behaviour is defined quantitatively in terms of physical properties, some results are taken on related systems and a structural explanation postulated to explain the data. A brief review of fundamental liquid theory and theories of viscosity transport are given. A more detailed analysis of the experimental measurements in molten salts most relevant to a structural analysis and a study of previous work in the monodivalent nitrate melts leads to a simple structural model capable of a limited interpre- tation of experimental behaviour. Qualitative studies on the nature of the low temperature form of certain compositions of the mixed nitrate melts verifies previous kreports of glass forma- tion. A quantitative study in the liquid range of the viscosity of the binary mixtvres of sodium, potassium, rubidium and caesium nitrate with calcium nitrate estab- lished the essentially non-Arhenius nature of the viscosity plots. An investigation of the electrical conductivity and 3. U.V. spectra of the melts was then carried out. The con- clusions drawn indicated the possibility of anomalous dielectric effects in the supercooled melt. Techniques were developed for this study and results indicatiag some form of loss mechanism obtained.
