Authigenic barium sulfate or barite [13462-86-7] is found in relatively high concentrations in sediments covering active diverging oceanic plate boundaries. It occurs as rounded masses containing up to 75% BaSO or as a dispersed constituent of the sediment. Its origins are uncertain, but it is likely that it is associated with hydrothermal actions. 

Available Forms. Phthalocyanines are available as powders, in paste, or Hquid forms. They can be dispersed in various media suitable for aqueous, nonaqueous, or multipurpose systems, eg, polyethylene, polyamide, or nitrocellulose. Inert materials like clay, barium sulfate, calcium carbonates, or aluminum hydrate are the most common soHd extenders. Predispersed concentrates of the pigments, like flushes, are interesting for manufacturers of paints and inks (156), who do not own grinding or dispersing equipment. Pigment—water pastes, ie, presscakes, containing 50—75% weight of water, are also available. 

In the oil-weU drilling industry, the barite suspension used as drilling mud can be destabilized by the presence of soluble materials such as gypsum. Addition of barium carbonate precipitates the gypsum, inhibits coagulation, and thus permits the mud to retain the desired consistency and dispersion. 

Hydrogenation. Hydrogenation is one of the oldest and most widely used appHcations for supported catalysts, and much has been written in this field (55—57). Metals useflil in hydrogenation include cobalt, copper, nickel, palladium, platinum, rhenium, rhodium, mthenium, and silver, and there are numerous catalysts available for various specific appHcations. Most hydrogenation catalysts rely on extremely fine dispersions of the active metal on activated carbon, alumina, siHca-alumina, 2eoHtes, kieselguhr, or inert salts, such as barium sulfate. 

The common acid acceptors, red lead oxide and barium carbonate, are both toxic when inhaled or ingested. They are, and should be, used in industry as dispersions in EPDM and ECO. SuppHers of red lead oxide include Polymeries, Inc., Rhein Chemie Corp., and Akrochem Co., Akron, Ohio. Barium carbonate in an ECO binder is available from Rhein Chemie Corp. and Synthetic Products Co. 

The viscosity of liquid silicates such as drose containing barium oxide and silica show a rapid fall between pure silica and 20 mole per cent of metal oxide of nearly an order of magnitude at 2000 K, followed by a slower decrease as more metal oxide is added. The viscosity then decreases by a factor of two between 20 and 40 mole per cent. The activation energy for viscous flow decreases from 560 kJ in pure silica to 160-180kJmol as the network is broken up by metal oxide addition. The introduction of CaFa into a silicate melt reduces the viscosity markedly, typically by about a factor of drree. There is a rapid increase in the thermal expansivity coefficient as the network is dispersed, from practically zero in solid silica to around 40 cm moP in a typical soda-lime glass. 

Density. Most fillers added in rubber base formulation have a density between 2 and 2.7 g/cm-, except barium sulphate (4-4.9 g/cm- ) and zinc oxide (5.6 g/cm ). Addition of filler increases the free volume of the polymer and, in general, there is a critical concentration of filler at which the density of the formulation increases. The method of incorporation of filler in the adhesive formulation is important because air voids may appear when a poor dispersion is produced. 

Other metal salts of naphthenic acids have many varied uses. For example, calcium naphthenate is a lubricating oil additive, and zinc naphthenate is an antioxidant. Lead, zinc, and barium naphthenates are wetting agents used as dispersion agents for paints. Some oil soluble metal naphthenates, such as those of zinc, cobalt, and lead, are used as...

A paint rarely consists solely of pigment dispersed in a solution of a binder. For one reason or another, small quantities of ancillary materials called additives are included. The oldest and still the most important are the driers which are used in all air-drying and many stoving paints containing drying oils. They are organic salts of certain metals, notably cobalt, calcium, barium, zirconium and manganese, with lead very much in decline. 

Some acrylic acid copolymers are promoted as having a very wide range of functions that permit them to act as calcium phosphate DCAs, barium sulfate antiprecipitants, particulate iron oxides dispersants, and colloidal iron stabilizers. One such popular copolymer is acrylic acid/sulfonic acid (or acrylic acid/ 2-acrylamido-methylpropane sulfonic acid, AA/SA, AA/AMPS). Examples of this chemistry include Acumer 2000 (4,500 MW) 2100 (11,000 MW) Belclene 400, Acrysol QR-1086, TRC -233, and Polycol 43. 

Electrochemical processes in melts are often attended by side reactions and phenomena complicating the primary process. This is true, in particular, for the technically very important class of reactions in which a number of metals (calcium, barium, and others) are obtained electrometallurgically from molten salts. In many of these processes the metal that is deposited (sometimes in a highly disperse state) is found to interact with the corrosive melt for example, in a reaction such as... 

ADCA is activated by zinc oxide, zinc stearate (strongly) and urea (slowly). Barium stearate, calcium stearate and triethanolamine, when added at 10 phr, moderately activate gas evolution from ADCA. They do not have very much effect on decomposition rate when the cure temperature is at 170 °C, but a marked effect above 180 °C. The rate of decomposition of ADCA is significantly influenced by the particle size of the additive. Effective dispersion and heat transfer through the particle can be a means of controlling the cell quality and the manufacturing method for the product. The correct particle size is selected to achieve the optimum balance between cure and cell development. 

It is obtained by condensing benzaldehyde-o-sulfonic acid with 2 equivalents of N-ethylbenzylaniline, followed by sulfonation, oxidation, and conversion to the ammonium salt. The dissolved dye is then immersed in a dispersion of aluminum hydroxide and converted to the corresponding salt using aluminum chloride or barium chloride solution ... 

Primer Formulations. Coatings were formulated using standard techniques. Mill bases were prepared by dispersing the oligomer solution with pigments (silica, carbon black, titanium dioxide and barium sulfate in a 1 1 1 10 ratio). The viscosity of the formulation was reduced to spray viscosity by addition of solvent.
