Black sample

FIGURE 25.6 Amounts of lutein present (pmole/mm2) in yellow, black, and white epidermal samples from nine individual animals. Each value is the combined result of analysis of between 3 and 8 punches from a single animal providing samples ranging from 0.39 to 1.7 mm2. The absolute detection limit of the HPLC for carotenoids was O.lpmole. The black sample for animal 3 was lost during analysis. 

If 50 mm of insulating backing is used a black sample may reach 70 °C or even 80 °C and a white sample above 50 °C. Temperatures under glass, such as inside a car, can exceed 100 °C and this is simulated in trials by mounting test pieces in special black box devices. 

Discussion - Some surface modification does take place on all carbon black samples. On the other hand, in the case of the oxidized gas black, its larger oxygen functionality clearly increases its capability to be modified. The case of carbon/ silica dual-phase fillers is similar. The TGA data show that the higher silica content...

Now it is of interest to compare these spectra to the 129Xe spectra of Xe adsorbed on the carbon black surfaces of pure carbon black samples. Since the effect of three carbon blacks as filler in EPDM was studied here, it limits the study here to the three carbon blacks N110, N330 and N550. For the investigation of other carbon blacks with 129Xe NMR, see [20]. 

A practical situation is shown in Fig. 26. The carbon 1 s data of HOPG as reference are compared to those of a chemically etched graphitized carbon black sample. The defective graphitized carbon surface exhibits a significantly wider main line at almost the same position as the well-ordered graphite (cleaved and annealed in UHV [90]). It can be seen that the neglect of the line asymmetry invariably causes the erroneous detection of additional lines in the range l-2eV above the peak... 

Figure 26. XPS data in the carbon 1 s region for a UHV cleaved graphite reference (HOPG) and a carbon black sample used in the titration experiments of Fig. 25. The arrow marks the position of the graphite surface plasmon. The top section of the modified spectrum in the high-binding energy side reveals several weak peaks for oxygen functional groups after removal of the asymmetric line profile from the main peak.

A classical volumetric adsorption apparatus equipped with absolute capacitance pressures transducers can be used for the estimation of adsorption isotherms in the pressure range 10-3 mbaradsorption measurements the carbon black samples are extracted with toluene and water/methanol (1 1) and after drying degassed overnight at 200 °C at a pressure below 10 4 mbar. The time allowed for equilibrium of each point of the isotherm is 5-90 min depending on the sample and the adsorbed amount. 

A reactor (Fig. 3) as described in U.S. Patent 3,060,003 was supplied with a feedstock of BCMI-120 using air and natural gas and a water quench to produce standard HAF and standard ISAF, All carbon black samples were tested substantially by physical tests and standard rubber tests. 

The term Ed, stands for charging contributions. This term is absent in spectra of samples exhibiting a finite density of states at the Eermi level. For all practical purposes this is correct for aU true metals and for many semiconductors with intrinsic states near zero binding energy. Many systems relevant in catalysis do, however, not fulfill this condition (all non-black samples, glasses, porous materials, supports) or even worse, are composites of metallic and non-metaUic systems, giving rise to mixed metalhc-insulating behavior of their surface under PES. Such...

Samples taken within 2 m of the sill varied from light brown at — 0.17 m to black at — 1.93 m. The black samples contained some extractable organic material and coke however, essentially all of the vitrinite was coked and no organic material was detected in the light brown sample. On this basis temperature limits of 880° and 1060°K are estimated (26), The upper limit of the magma was set at the usual geology textbook temperature of 1473°K (1200°C). The estimate of the... 

In an early systematic investigation of this relationship, a series of carbon black samples was applied to chopped cotton fibers from an aqueous suspension with vigorous agitation (54, 55). The degree of soiling was estimated by filtering the fibers... 

The polymerization of pyrrole in zeolite channels was explored by Bein and coworkers. Pyrrole vapor was equilibrated with copper-exchanged, degassed NaY or Na-mordenite hosts at room temperature, and the formation of dark green to black samples was observed, whose infrared spectra showed the signature of bulk polypyrrole (Figure 8). The absence of detectable polypyrrole on CuNaA zeolite (whose windows are too small for adsorption of pyrrole) and the absent of d.c. 

Adsorption of cumene on Hp at room temperature gives rise to two sharp UV absorptions at 220 and 260 nm (Fig. 6), whose intensities change slightly with time.Upon evacuation at increasing temperature a new band appeared at 330 nm (at 473 K), which shifted to 345 nm at 573 K. Prolonged evacuation at this temperature blacked sample. 

The same sequence of adsorptions (O2-CO) was also studied on the surface of NiO(250°) [41). As in the case of NiO(200°), adsorption of carbon monoxide on the sample containing preadsorbed oxygen (1.90 cm /gm) (Table II) changes the color of the sample from black to green and decreases its electrical conductivity (1.8 x 10- ohm-i cm- ) to the low initial value. However, this time, carbon dioxide is found in the cold trap placed near the sample. Calorimetric results reported in Table II indicate also that carbon monoxide interacts with preadsorbed oxygen since the heats of adsorption of carbon monoxide are higher on the black sample (Table II) than on the pure surface of NiO(250°) (Fig. 12).

A carbon black sample is treated with excess of iodine. The excess iodine is then titrated with a sodium thiosulfate solution. The result is expressed as adsorbed iodine per unit of mass of the sample. The iodine number depends on amount of volatiles, surface porosity, and extractables. The iodine number correlates with the nitrogen specific surface area. It is a simple method used to evaluate the quality of carbon black.
