Alcohol-water

One more experimental result, which is important for PT is as follows. Only polar liquids fill conical capillaries from both sides. We used various penetrants to fill conical defects Pion , LZh-6A , LZhT , LUM-9 etc. It was established that only the penetrants containing polar liquid as the basic liquid component (various alcohols, water and others) manifest two-side filling phenomenon. This result gives one more confirmation of the physical mechanism of the phenomenon, based on liquid film flow, because the disjoining pressure strongly depends just on the polarity of a liquid. 

We have considered the surface tension behavior of several types of systems, and now it is desirable to discuss in slightly more detail the very important case of aqueous mixtures. If the surface tensions of the separate pure liquids differ appreciably, as in the case of alcohol-water mixtures, then the addition of small amounts of the second component generally results in a marked decrease in surface tension from that of the pure water. The case of ethanol and water is shown in Fig. III-9c. As seen in Section III-5, this effect may be accounted for in terms of selective adsorption of the alcohol at the interface. Dilute aqueous solutions of organic substances can be treated with a semiempirical equation attributed to von Szyszkowski [89,90]... 

Donahue and Bartell verified Eq. IV-16 for several organic alcohol-water systems. 

Estimate the interfacial tension gradient formed in alcohol-water mixtures as a function of alcohol content. Determine the minimum alcohol content necessary to form wine tears on a vertical glass wall [174] (experimental veriflcation is possible). 

Add 40 ml. of ethyl alcohol to 21 -5 g. of 70 per cent, ethylenediamine solution (0 -25 mol) dissolve 36 -5 g. of adipic acid (0 -25 mol) in 50 ml. of a 6 1 mixture of ethyl alcohol and water. Mix the two solutions, stir and cool. Filter off the resulting salt and recrystalliae it from 60 ml. of a 6 1 ethyl alcohol - water mixture, and dry the salt in the air. Heat the salt in an atmosphere of oxygen-free nitrogen or of carbon dioxide in an oil bath until it melts (ca. 160°) the product will sohdify after a short time. Reduce the pressure to 15 mm. of mercury or less and raise the temperature of the oil bath until the product remelts (about 290°) and continue the heating for 4r-5 hours. Upon coohng, a nylon type polymer is obtained. 

Breslow studied the dimerisation of cyclopentadiene and the reaction between substituted maleimides and 9-(hydroxymethyl)anthracene in alcohol-water mixtures. He successfully correlated the rate constant with the solubility of the starting materials for each Diels-Alder reaction. From these relations he estimated the change in solvent accessible surface between initial state and activated complex " . Again, Breslow completely neglects hydrogen bonding interactions, but since he only studied alcohol-water mixtures, the enforced hydrophobic interactions will dominate the behaviour. Recently, also Diels-Alder reactions in dilute salt solutions in aqueous ethanol have been studied and minor rate increases have been observed Lubineau has demonstrated that addition of sugars can induce an extra acceleration of the aqueous Diels-Alder reaction . Also the effect of surfactants on Diels-Alder reactions has been studied. This topic will be extensively reviewed in Chapter 4.

Filters for use in sterile gas filtration must conform to standards similar to those mandated for sterile hquid filtration. Nondestmctive integrity tests may be apphed. The tests are performed by wetting the filter with an appropriate solvent, commonly 60/40 isopropyl alcohol/water for hydrophobic membranes, and applying air or nitrogen gas at a preset pressure. 

Another group of natural flavoring ingredients comprises those obtained by extraction from certain plant products such as vanilla beans, Hcotice root, St. John s bread, orange and lemon peel, coffee, tea, kola nuts, catechu, cherry, elm bark, cocoa nibs, and gentian root. These products are used in the form of alcohohc infusions or tinctures, as concentrations in alcohol, or alcohol—water extractions termed fluid or soHd extracts. Official methods for their preparation and specifications for all products used in pharmaceuticals are described (54,55). There are many flavor extracts for food use for which no official standards exist the properties of these are solely based on suitabiUty for commercial appHcations (56). 

Meclizine Hydrochloride. Pipera2ine Antivert, and Bonine are trade names for mech2ine dihydrochloride monohydrate [31884-77-2] (20). It is a white or slightly yellowish crystalline powder with a slight odor, no taste, and a melting point of 217—224°C. The hydrochloride is practically insoluble in water and ether. It is freely soluble in chloroform, pyridine, methylacetamide, and mild acid alcohol—water mixtures, and is slightly soluble in dilute acids or alcohol. See Reference 16 for synthesis. 

Protonolysis. Simple trialkylboranes are resistant to protonolysis by alcohols, water, aqueous bases, and mineral acids. In contrast, carboxyUc acids react readily with trialkylboranes, removing the first alkyl group at room temperature and the third one at elevated temperatures. Acetic and propionic acids are most often used. The reaction proceeds with retention of configuration of the alkyl group via a cycHc, six-membered transition state (206).

Aminophenol. This compound forms white plates when crystallized from water. The base is difficult to maintain in the free state and deteriorates rapidly under the influence of air to pink-purple oxidation products. The crystals exist in two forms. The a-form (from alcohol, water, or ethyl acetate) is the more stable and has an orthorhombic pyramidal stmcture containing four molecules per unit cell. It has a density of 1.290 g/cm (1.305 also quoted). The less stable P-form (from acetone) exists as acicular crystals that turn into the a-form on standing they are orthorhombic bipyramidal or pyramidal and have a hexamolecular unit (15,16,24) (see Tables 3—5). 

The amino group is readily dia2oti2ed in aqueous solution, and this reaction forms a basis for the assay of sulfas. Aldehydes also react to form anils, and the yellow product formed with 4-(dimethylamino)hen2a1dehyde can be used for detection in thiu-layer and paper chromatography. Chromatographic retention values have been deterrnined in a number of thiu layer systems, and have been used as an expression of the lipophilic character of sulfonamides (23). These values have corresponded well with Hansch lipophilic parameters determined in an isobutyl alcohol—water system.

Sohd, water-soluble a-hydroxycarboxyhc acid and oxaUc acid titanium complexes can be formed by reaction of the acid and a tetraaLkyl titanate in an inert solvent, such as acetone or heptane. The precipitated complex is filtered, rinsed with solvent, and dried to give an amorphous white soHd, which is water- and alcohol—water-soluble (81,82). 

Riboflavin forms fine yellow to orange-yeUow needles with a bitter taste from 2 N acetic acid, alcohol, water, or pyridine. It melts with decomposition at 278—279°C (darkens at ca 240°C). The solubihty of riboflavin in water is 10—13 mg/100 mL at 25—27.5°C, and in absolute ethanol 4.5 mg/100 mL at 27.5°C it is slightly soluble in amyl alcohol, cyclohexanol, benzyl alcohol, amyl acetate, and phenol, but insoluble in ether, chloroform, acetone, and benzene. It is very soluble in dilute alkah, but these solutions are unstable. Various polymorphic crystalline forms of riboflavin exhibit variations in physical properties. In aqueous nicotinamide solution at pH 5, solubihty increases from 0.1 to 2.5% as the nicotinamide concentration increases from 5 to 50% (9). 

The wash primer is a special type of vinyl coating. This material contains a poly(vinyl butyral) resin, zinc chromate, and phosphoric acid in an alcohol-water solvent. The coating is so thin it is HteraUy washed onto a freshly blasted steel surface, where it passivates the metal surface by converting it to a thin iron phosphate-chromate coating. The alcohol solvent makes it possible to apply the coating over damp surfaces. The coating forms the first coat of... 

Diatomite has only weak adsorption (qv) powers but shows excellent absorption (qv) because of its stmcture and high surface area. Acids, Hquid fertilisers (qv), alcohol, water, oils, and other fluids are absorbed by diatomite.
