calculate some thermodynamic properties of molten polymers including specific volume and isothermal compressibility (s.m. hoseini, physical chemistry & electrochemistry, 2 (2014) 56-65). this work extended that eos to predict the volumetric properties of some molten ethylene copolymers including ethylene/1-octene, ethylene/1-butene (xethylene equal to 0.8543 and 0.563), ethylene/propene. the ab...

in this study, aggregation behavior of a water soluble cationic metalloporphyrin, meso-tetrakis (2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-n,n´,n´´-trimethyl ammonium phenyl) porphyrin nickel(ii) [ni(ii)(tf4tmapp)]4+ is investigated in 5 mm aqueous phosphate buffer of ph 7.0 at 25.0 °c and various ionic strengths using optical absorption and resonance light scattering spectroscopic methods. the results suggest that ...

the complexation reactions between cu2+, pd2+ and ni2+ metal ions with promethazine (pm) in water or dmf were studied by the spectrophotometric methods at [(15, 25,35 and 45±0.1) °c]. the complexation process was optimized in terms of ph, temperature and contact time. the stoichiometry of the complex was found to be 1:1 (metal ion/ligand). the formation constants of the resulting complexes were...

Within both slightly non–extensive statistics and related numerical model, a picture is elaborated to treat self–similar time series as a thermodynamic system. Thermodynamic–type characteristics relevant to temperature, pressure, entropy, internal and free energies are introduced and tested. Predictability conditions of time series analysis are discussed on the basis of Van der Waals model. Max...

adsorption capacity of 4-chloro-2-nitrophenol (4c2np) onto nano-ti02 from aqueous solutions wasinvestigated in a batch system by considering the effects of various parameters like contact time, nano-tio2 dosage, initial ph and initial 4c2np concentration. optimum conditions for 4c2np adsorptionwere found to be initial ph z 2, nano-tio2 closer- 0.01 g and equilibrium time 1 h. the adsorptionkine...

While many efforts have been devoted to optimizing the power output for a finite-time thermodynamic process, thermodynamic optimization under realistic situations is not necessarily concerned with power alone; rather, it may be of great relevance to optimize generic objective functions that are combinations of power, entropy production, and/or efficiency. One can optimize the objective function...

Considerable work has been published on mathematically coupled nonlinear differential equations by neglecting thermodynamic coupling between heat and mass flows in reaction-transport systems. The thermodynamic coupling refers that a flow occurs without or against its primary thermodynamic driving force, which may be a gradient of temperature, or chemical potential, or reaction affinity. This st...

Radionuclides can occur in the environment either through chronic releases of nuclear facilities, or due to incidents or accidents. In order to study there behaviors in the environment (migration, retention, transfer, ...) and in human organisms (metabolism, retention, excretion), it is of prime importance to know their solution chemistry, and more particularly thermodynamic equilibrium constan...

Thermodynamic modeling of the H-Mg-Na system is performed for the first time in this work in order to understand the phase relationships in this system. A new thermodynamic description of the stable NaMgH3 hydride is performed and the thermodynamic models for the H-Mg, Mg-Na, and H-Na systems are reassessed using the modified quasichemical model for the liquid phase. The thermodynamic propertie...

The calculation of binding free energies is important in many condensed matter problems. Although formally exact computational methods have the potential to complement, add to, and even compete with experimental approaches, they are difficult to use and extremely time consuming. We describe a Grid-based approach for the calculation of relative binding free energies, which we call Steered Thermo...
