Alcl3(G)=3Alcl(G) Reaction in the Subhalide Process of Aluminium (Study of Extractive Metallurgy of Aluminium (1)) Equilibrium of the 2Al(l)+AlCl3(g)=3AlCl(g) Reaction in the Subhalide Process of Aluminium (Study of Extractive Metallurgy of Aluminium (1)) By Takeaki Kikuchi*, Toshio Kurosawa* and Testuo Yagihashi* Equilibriumconstants of a fundamental reaction of the aluminium subhalide process, 2Al(l)+AlCl3(g)= 3AlCl(g), were determined by the flow method using argon carrier between 1000℃ and 1250℃. As a result of this experiment, equilibrium constants and standard free energy were obtained by the following equation: The heat of formation and entropy of AlCl(g) obtained from the experimental data and other thermodynamic values were -22,250cal/mot and 48.7cal/mol respectively. By the use of the equilibrium constants, the reaction ratio of aluminium trichloride was calculated at a reduced pressure and in argon carrier, respectively. (Receivedmarch 10, 1964) I.

INTRODUCTION Although a considerable number of precipitants have been pro- posed for the determination of aluminium, direct precipitation of aluminium hydroxide by means of ammonium hydroxide, fol- lowed by ignition to oxide, is most commonly used, especially if no separation from iron is desired, in which latter case special methods must be employed. While the general principles involved in this determination are extremely simple, it has long been recog- nized that certain precautions in the precipitation, washing, and ignition are necessary if accurate results are to be obtained. While, however, most of these details have been studied and dis- cussed by numerous authors, it is noteworthy that few publica- tions or textbooks have taken account of all the factors. In the 515 ; 516 Bulletin of the Bureau of Standards [Voi.i3 present paper it seems desirable, therefore, to assemble the various recommendations and to consider their basis and their accuracy.

    G IULIO N A T T A From the stereospecific polymerization to the asymmetric autocatalytic synthesis of macromolecules Nobel Lecture, December 12, 1963 Introduction Macromolecular chemistry is a relatively young science. Though natural and synthetic macromolecular substances had long been known, it was only between 1920 and 1930 that Hermann Staudinger placed our knowledge of the chemical structure of several macromolecular substances on a scientific basis 1. In the wake of Staudinger’s discoveries and hypotheses, macromolecu- lar chemistry has made considerable progress. Very many synthetic macromolecular substances were prepared both by polymerization and by polycondensation; methods were found for the regu- lation of the value and distribution of molecular weights; attempts were made to clarify the relationships existing among structure, chemical regularity, molecular weight, and physical and technological properties of the macro- molecular substances. It was far more difficult to obtain synthetic macromole- cules having a regular structure from both the chemical and steric points of view. An early result in this field, which aroused a certain interest in relation to elastomers, was the preparation of a polybutadiene having a very high content of trans- 1,4 monomeric units, in the presence of heterogeneous catalysts 2. A wider development of this field was made possible by the recent discovery of stereospecific polymerization. This led to the synthesis of sterically regular polymers as well as to that of new classes of crystalline polymers. Before referring to the stereospecific polymerizations and to their subse- quent developments, I wish to make a short report on the particular conditions that enabled my School to rapidly achieve conclusive results on the genesis and structure of new classes of macromolecules.

  • Aluminum Electrolytes for Al Dual-Ion Batteries ✉ ✉ Kostiantyn V
    REVIEW ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s42004-020-00365-2 OPEN Aluminum electrolytes for Al dual-ion batteries ✉ ✉ Kostiantyn V. Kravchyk 1,2 & Maksym V. Kovalenko 1,2 In the search for sustainable energy storage systems, aluminum dual-ion batteries have 1234567890():,; recently attracted considerable attention due to their low cost, safety, high energy density (up to 70 kWh kg−1), energy efficiency (80–90%) and long cycling life (thousands of cycles and potentially more), which are needed attributes for grid-level stationary energy storage. Overall, such batteries are composed of aluminum foil as the anode and various types of carbonaceous and organic substances as the cathode, which are immersed in an aluminum electrolyte that supports efficient and dendrite-free aluminum electroplating/stripping upon cycling. Here, we review current research pursuits and present the limitations of aluminum electrolytes for aluminum dual-ion batteries. Particular emphasis is given to the aluminum plating/stripping mechanism in aluminum electrolytes, and its contribution to the total charge storage electrolyte capacity. To this end, we survey the prospects of these stationary storage systems, emphasizing the practical hurdles of aluminum electrolytes that remain to be addressed. he integration of intermittent renewables into the grid is directly linked to the deployment Tof stationary energy storage systems at the terawatt scale, enabling grid stabilization. From this perspective, in addition to conventional energy storage means, such as pumped- storage hydroelectricity (PSH), stationary batteries will be of significant importance1. Loosely speaking, the assessment of the battery technologies for stationary storage applications can be made by comparing their capital cost (¢ kW−1 h−1 cycle−1) to that of PSH, which is presently the predominant stationary storage system.
