The optimal adsorption condition of D152 resin for Pb^2＋ is at pH 6.00 in HAc-NaAc medium. The statically saturated adsorption capacity is 527 mg/g at 298 K. Pb^2＋ adsorbed on D152 resin can be eluted with 0.05 mol/L HCI quantitatively. The adsorption rate constants determined under various temperatures are k288 n=2.22×10-5 s^-1, k298 K=2.51 × 10^-5 s^-1, and k308 K= 2.95 × 10^-5 s^-1, respectively. The apparent activation energy, Ea is 10.5 kJ/mol, and the adsorption parameters of thermodynamics are ΔH^Θ=13.3 kJ/mol, ΔS^Θ=119 J/（mol·K）, and ΔG^Θ298 K =-22.2 kJ/mol, respectively. The adsorption behavior of D152 resin for Pb^2＋ follows Langmuir model.展开更多

The stability of the complexes, thermal effect and entropy effect of the complexation is discussed on the basis of the guest ions structure and the solvent effect. The stability constants tendency to vary with ion radius was interpreted. Complex of naphtha-15-crown-5 with calcium ion is very stable due to the synergism of static electric interaction and size selectivity between the host and the guest.展开更多

One way of improving the accuracy of a cubic EOS is through the modification of temperature-dependent energy parameter by using alpha-function.The industrial applications of natural gas are very wide and as a result, prediction of thermodynamic properties and phase behavior of natural gas is an important part of design for such processes. In this work we develop a newα-function for the Peng-Robinson(PR) EOS with the parameters optimized especially for natural gas components.The parameters are generalized as a linear function of acentric factor. The results are compared to the predictions from original PR EOS and other α-functions in literature. It is shown that the new α-function presents a good accuracy with the average deviation of 1.42% for natural gas components.展开更多

Viscosity data were interpreted in terms of an empirical equation; h =aoexp(boM+coM2). Values of coefficients ao, bo and co were calculated for all the three systems studied. Flow activation energies and thermodynamic parameters were also evaluated.展开更多

Because the application of calorimetry does not depend upon knowledge of concentration profiles, it has the advantage over other real-time analyses. Estimated kinetic parameters were compared with the ones obtained with Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy （FTIR）. The chosen reaction was ethyl benzoate saponification performed in homogeneous reaction medium, although it is known as heterogeneous reaction. Thus, the rate expression was developed where no mass transfer is considered. The reaction was carried out in a MettlerTM RCI reaction calorimeter.展开更多

To obtain the relevant average properties of the system, a differential equation satisfied by the polymeric moment of interest is given, and as a result the zeroth, first, second, and third polymeric moments together with the size distribution function of hyperbranched polymers(HBPs) are explicitly presented. As an application of the method of statistical mechanics, several thermodynamic quantities such as the equilibrium free energy, law of mass action, isothermal compressibility, internal energy, and the specific heat associated with the polymerization are all derived. Furthermore, the scaling behavior of asymptotic size distribution function is discussed, by which a reasonable interpretation of the polydispersity index near the end of polymerization can be made. Also, the expressions of some structural parameters such as the numbers of inimers, terminal units, chain units, branched units, and the degree of branching(DB) are calculated. It is found that a high functionality is helpful to improve the DB of the resultant HBPs. These results show that the functionality f has a significant effect on the thermodynamic quantities and structural properties of HBPs.展开更多
