The force-field model for ethanol contains C-O and O—H bond-stretching contributions in ethane thiol these are replaced by C—S and S—H parameters. Similarly, in ethanol there will be angle-bending terms due to C—O—H, C—C—O and H—C—O angles in ethane thiol these will be C—S—H, C—C—S and H—C—S. The torsional contribution will be modified appropriately, as will the van der Waals and electrostatic interactions (both those within the... 

Although hydration under hydrothermal conditions may be rapid, metastable iatermediate phases tend to form, and final equiUbria may not be reached for months at 100—200°C, or weeks at even higher temperatures. Hence, the temperatures of formation given ia Table 6 iadicate the conditions under saturated steam pressure that may be expected to yield appreciable quantities of the compound, although it may not be the most stable phase at the given temperature. The compounds are Hsted ia order of decreasiag basicity, or lime/siHca ratio. Reaction mixtures having ratios C S = 1 yield xonotHte at 150—400°C. Intermediate phases of C—S—H (I), C—S—H (II), and crystalline tobermorite ate formed ia succession. Tobermorite (1.13 nm) appears to persist indefinitely under hydrothermal conditions at 110—140°C it is a principal part of the biader ia many autoclaved cement—silica and lime—silica products. 

In hydrations at ordinary temperatures (27) pure C S and P-C2S, corresponding to the aHte and beHte phases ia Pordand cements, respectively, react with water to form calcium hydroxide and a single calcium siHcate hydrate (C—S—H). Using cement chemists notation... 

These ate the main reactions ia Pordand cements because the two calcium siHcates constitute about 75% of the cement. The average lime—silica ratio (C S) may vary from about 1.5 to about 2.0 or even higher, the average value is about 1.7. The water content varies with the ambient humidity, the three moles of water being estimated from measurements ia the dry state and stmctural considerations. As the lime—silica ratio of the C—S—H iacreases, the amount of water iacreases on an equimolar basis, ie, the lime goes iato the stmcture as calcium hydroxide, resulting ialess free calcium hydroxide. 

Other reactions taking place throughout the hardening period are substitution and addition reactions (29). Ferrite and sulfoferrite analogues of calcium monosulfoaluminate and ettringite form soHd solutions in which iron oxide substitutes continuously for the alumina. Reactions with the calcium sihcate hydrate result in the formation of additional substituted C—S—H gel at the expense of the crystalline aluminate, sulfate, and ferrite hydrate phases. 

To make martensite in pure iron it has to be cooled very fast at about 10 °C s h Metals can only be cooled at such large rates if they are in the form of thin foils. How, then, can martensite be made in sizeable pieces of 0.8% carbon steel As we saw in the "Teaching Yourself Phase Diagrams" course, a 0.8% carbon steel is a "eutectoid" steel when it is cooled relatively slowly it transforms by diffusion into pearlite (the eutectoid mixture of a + FejC). The eutectoid reaction can only start when the steel has been cooled below 723°C. The nose of the C-curve occurs at = 525°C (Fig. 8.11), about 175°C lower than the nose temperature of perhaps 700°C for pure iron (Fig. 8.5). Diffusion is much slower at 525°C than it is at 700°C. As a result, a cooling rate of 200°C s misses the nose of the 1% curve and produces martensite. 

As mentioned in the Introduction, in iron—sulfur proteins, the hyperfine shifts of the nuclei of the coordinating cysteines are essentially contact in origin (21, 22). In the case of [Fe4S4l (17) and [FegS4] (112) cluster, it has been shown that the hyperfine shift of the cysteinyl H/3 and Ca nuclei can be related to the value of the Fe-Sy-C/S-H/S/Ca dihedral angle (6) through a Karplus-type relationship of the form...
