Nickel acetyl acetonate (Ni(ac ac)2) was used as nickel precursor for both MNNP and CNONF and NiCO3●2Ni(OH)2●nH2O was utilized for NONP. Organic alcohols including 1-hexanol and benzyl alcohol were used as solvent to produce all powders. The crystallite sizes of MNNP, NONP and CNONF were determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) to be 30, 9 and 27 nm, respectively. Electron microscopy indicated final particle sizes of 80 nm and 20 nm for MNNP and NONP, respectively and a thickness-layer less than 90 nm for CNONF. Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) experiment determined a high surface area of 68 m2/gr for CNONF.展开更多

The treatment is based on combination of the experimental data with the thermodynamic values available on the compressibility factor of pure kerosene at room temperature. It is shown that the activity of TBP in kerosene has a positive deviation from ideality with an activity coefficient derived as follows:1) at X TBP ≤ 0.01: γ TBP = 42.530, 2) at the 0.01 X TBP 0.2: 3) at the higher TBP concentrations 0.2 X TBP 0.97: and 4) at TBP Raoultian concentrations 0.97 ≤ X TBP:γ TBP = 1. These quantities can be utilized at temperature closed to 298 K.展开更多
