Surface-enhanced Raman scattering has been proven a powerful means in the fast detection and recognition of chemicals at trace levels, while quantitative analysis especially the compositional analysis of trace chemical mixtures remains a challenge. We report here a "triangle-rule" based on the principal component analysis (PCA) of surface-enhanced Raman scattering spectra, to calculate the comp...

In this study, NRTL and UNIQUAC thermodynamic models were used to predict the composition of ternary mixtures of solvents+ m/o/p-cresol+ water in organic and aqueous phases. Various solvents are used for the separation of cresols from water. In this study, methyl propyl ketone, methyl isopropyl ketone, methyl butyl ketone, and methyl isobutyl ketone solvents were investigated. Intermolecular in...

This paper studies the application of principal component analysis, multiple polynomial regression, and artificial neural network ANN techniques to the quantitative analysis of binary mixture of dye solution. The binary mixtures of three textile dyes including blue, red and yellow colors were analyzed by PCA-Multiple polynomial Regression and PCA-Artificial Neural network PCA-ANN methods. The o...

In the present work, the integral equations method is used to calculate transport properties of polar fluids. For this goal, we use the Stockmayer potential and examine theoretically the thermal conductivity of several refrigerant mixtures such as R125+R134a, R125+R32, R125+R152a, R134a+R32, R152a+R32, R134a+R143a, and R125+R143a. We solve numerically the Ornstein-Zernike (OZ) equation usin...

  Wax precipitate is one of the most serious issues the oil industry is currently facing, since it can cause some troubles such as increasing of the pressure losses in pipe which subsequently increases the required power for pumpage. To remove this problem, prediction of wax disappearance temperature (WDT) seems necessary. In this study, the pressure influence on the wax disappearance temperatu...

This study aimed to investigate the adsorption of CH4, CO2, H2S at a temperature of 298.15 K and pressurerange of 0.1 to 30 atm, and compare the results with experimental data for MIL-47 using GCMC. Themaximum CH4, CO2 and H2S adsorptions were 3.6, 10.45, and 12.57 mol.kg-1, respectively. In addition, theselectivity for binary mixtures of CH4/CO2 and CH4/H2S was calculated. Th...

In order to study potential mixture interactions among bitter compounds, selected sodium salts were added to five compounds presented either alone or as binary bitter-compound mixtures. Each compound was tested at a concentration that elicited 'weak' perceived bitterness. The bitter compounds were mixed at these concentrations to form a subset of possible binary mixtures. For comparison, the co...

In vivo electrophysiological recordings in the sea catfish, Arius felis, showed that the magnitude of the integrated facial taste responses to binary mixtures of amino acids was predictable with knowledge obtained from previous cross-adaptation studies of the relative independence of the respective binding sites of the component stimuli. Each component from which equal aliquots were drawn to fo...

Colloids are binary mixtures of molecules with one type of molecule suspended in another. It is believed that at low density typical configurations will be well-mixed throughout, while at high density they will separate into clusters. We characterize the high and low density phases for a general family of discrete interfering binary mixtures by showing that they exhibit a “clustering property” ...

A new model for micellization beha..-ior of binary surfactant mixtures in solution is presented. A packing parameter, P* , has been introduced to describe the nonrandom mixing in mixed micelles. The significant feature of this model is that it considers asymmetric behavior ofmicellization in binary surfactant mixtures and predict5 the changes in the structures of mixed micelles with concentrati...
