It has been found that these compounds (especially pyrocatechol—due to its ability to form chelate complexes with aluminum ions) restrain destructive deformations of Portland cement mortars with aluminum sulfate admixture when under test conditions a constant supply of sulfate ions from external source is provided. According to 27Al-MAS NMR data, pyrocatechol does not influence the amount of ettringite formed in Portland cement paste during its store in sodium sulfate solution. Presumably, in presence of benzenediols, in cement mortars with aluminum sulfate admixture the formation of ettringite crystals with a less pronounced destructive effect takes place.展开更多

The electrode can be used as a detector for the determination of dopamine with a high stability and a good sensitivity. The cyclic voltammetric results indicated that there was a couple of well-defined redox peaks for dopamine at the PS/GC electrode with E_(pa)= 220 mV, E_(pc)=95 mV and the formal potential E^(o')= 157. 5 mV(vs. SCE) at 100 mV/s in the buffer solution of pH 7. 0. The PS/GC electrode can also be used to separate the electrochemical responses of ascorbic acid and DA by 54 mV with the differential pulse voltammetry. Under the selected conditions, the oxidation peak currents are linear with DA concetration in the range of 5. 0 × 10^(-6) to 5. 0 × 10^(-4) mol/L, and the detection limit is 1. 0 ×10^(-6) mol/L at S/N=3. Normalized with concentration, the relative sensitivity of dopamine to ascorbic acid reaches ca. 30. 8: 1.展开更多

The peak currents of differential pulse voltammograms (DPV) decrease with the addition of Al and the peak potentials remain the same. The decreasing of Delta i(p) is linear with Al concentration in the range of 1 x 10(-8) similar to 1 x 10(-7) mol/L. The detection limit is 5 x 10(-9) mol/L and the relative standard deviation for 4 x 10(-8) mol/L Al is 2.9% (n=8). No serious interference was found. The determination of Al in water samples is reported.展开更多

By studying CAC-pyrocatechol compositions using different analytical methods it was shown that pyrocatechol indeed slows CAC hydration and decreases strength of hardening stone. What makes this behavior a peculiar one is that pyrocatechol is known to accelerate Portland cement (PC) setting drastically.展开更多
