the complexation reaction between hydroxyl ammonium (honh3+ ) cation with 18-crown-6 (18c6) ligand was studied in dimethylsulfoxide – water (dmso-h2o), methanol – water (meoh-h2o) and dimethylformamid – methanol (dmf-meoh), binary solutions at different temperatures using conductometric method. the obtained results show that the stoichiometry of the complex formed between honh3+ cation with (18...

in the present study, the cooperative and diminutive interplay between halogen, hydride, and cation-σ interactions are studied in hmgh···li+(na+)···nccl, li+(na+)···hmgh···clcn and hmgh···clcn···li+(na+) complexes by means of ab initio calculations. to better understand the cooperative or diminutive effects in the ternary systems, the corresponding binary complexes are also considered. the esti...

heterogeneous proton exchange membranes (pem) are synthesized using the dry phase inversion technique. the casting solutions are prepared by dispersing a finely ground cation exchange resin particle in n,n-dimethylacetamide (dmac) solution of polyvinyl-chloride (pvc). results show that ion exchange capacity is increased with the addition of 1 %-wt nanosilica (from 0.14 to 0.27 meq/g) while it i...

background: dental techniques are frequently used in human identifi cation; some of those include comparative analyses of dental features that, being rare or unique to an individual, can establish a positive identifi cation. the usefulness of each feature depends on its population, frequency, and uniqueness. the aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of talon cusps in a portuguese po...
