Monodisperse hollow silica spheres of uniform size and ordered mesoporous shells have been successfully fabricated in water/heptane/CTAB nanoemulsions induced by compressed CO(2).

Pt/Zr(x)-HMS/HZSM-5 catalysts with different ratios of Silicium/Zirconium (denoted as x) were studied for normal heptane reforming at 350-450 °C temperature range. For this purpose, the properties of the catalysts such as X-ray diffraction, X-ray fluorescence, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, Ultraviolet–visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, NH3-temperature pro...

in this paper electrical conductivity measurements and optical investigations takes place in aot/ heptane/ (water or aqueous) systems. the water in oil system prepared with adding water in 50% by weight of aot/ heptane solution.  in other systems instead of water, aqueous solutions of 1) zinc acetate and water 2) potassium hydroxide and water were used. in each phase, the trend of the electrica...

The separation of aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons is challenging, due to overlapping boiling points and formation of several azeotropes. Conventional solvents for those separations are polar substances, e.g. sulfolane. Recently it could be shown that ionic liquids can perform considerably better than common extraction solvents. Hence, ionic liquids can be a promising alternative [1]. Ionic ...

Neher and Wettstein (1) have recently published the details of a paper chromatographic method for the separation of weakly polar steroids, with a heptane-phenyl Cellosolve solvent system. Savard (2) has described the separation of 17-ketosteroids on paper with ligroin as the mobile phase and propylene glycol as the stationary phase. Starting from the basic work of these authors, a method has be...

Various engine and shock tube studies have observed increased NOx emissions from the combustion of biodiesels relative to regular diesel and linked them to the degree of unsaturation or the number of double bonds in the molecular structure of long-chain biodiesel fuels. We report herein a numerical investigation on the structure and emission characteristics of triple flames burning n-heptane an...
