A class

Regarding product characteristics, European specifications were established in 1992. They concern mainly the motor octane number (MON) that limits the olefin content and which should be higher than 89, and the vapor pressure, tied to the C3/C4 ratio which should be less than 1550 mbar at 40°C (ISO 4256). On the other hand, to ensure easy vehicle start-ups, a minimum vapor pressure for winter has been set which is different for each country and depends on climatic conditions. Four classes. A, B, C, and D, are thus defined in Europe with a minimum vapor pressure of 250 mbar, respectively, at -10°C (A), -5 C (B), 0°C (C) and -t-10°C (Z)). France has chosen class A. 

As the safety and quality of industrial components, equipments and constructions is correlated with the inspection sensitivity and this is influenced in radiography by the film system class, a continuous supervision of the film systems on the market seems to be urgently necessary. To support the confidence of the film users in the film properties specified by the film manufacturers such a system for quality assurance for industrial x-ray films is proposed by some manufacturers and BAM. This system will be open to all manufacturers, distributers and users of x-ray films. It will deal with all film systems inclusive those which are not specified by a manufacturer as for instance mixed systems. The system for quality assurance will be based... 

This method has been devised as an effective numerical teclmique of computational fluid dynamics. The basic variables are the time-dependent probability distributions f x, f) of a velocity class a on a lattice site x. This probability distribution is then updated in discrete time steps using a detenninistic local rule. A carefiil choice of the lattice and the set of velocity vectors minimizes the effects of lattice anisotropy. This scheme has recently been applied to study the fomiation of lamellar phases in amphiphilic systems [92, 93]. 

For the robust estimation of the pair potentials, some obstacles had to be overcome. There are a huge number of different triples (si, Sk,i — k), and to find densities, we needed a way to group them in a natural way together into suitable classes. A look at the cumulative distribution functions (cdf s) of the half squared distances Cjfc at residue distance d = i — k (w.l.o.g. >0), displayed in Figure 1, shows that the residue distances 8 and higher behave very similarly so in a first step we truncated all residue distances larger than 8 to 8. 

It should be noted that the modern view is that all partially miscible liquids should have both a lower and upper critical solution temperature so that all such systems really belong to one class. A closed solubility curve is not obtain in all cases because the physical conditions under normal pressure prevent this. Thus with liquids possessing a lower C.S.T., the critical temperature (the critical point for the liquid vapour system for each component, the maximum temperature at which liquefaction is possible) may be reached before the consolute temperature. Similarly for liquids with an upper C.S.T., one or both of the liquids may freeze before the lower C.S.T. is attained. 

To appreciate the action of a drying agent of class (a), let us imagine some anhydrous copper sulphate in an evacuated vessel provided with a pressure gauge, and water is allowed to enter slowly the temperature is assumed constant at 25°. The results may be best expressed by means of a vapour pressure - composition diagram (Fig. 7, 20, 1). The initial system is represented by the point A the pressure will rise along AB until the monohydrate CuS04,H20 commences to form at B. 

Compounds which dissolve in concentrated sulphuric acid may be further subdivided into those which are soluble in syrupy phosphoric acid (A) and those which are insoluble in this solvent (B) in general, dissolution takes place without the production of appreciable heat or colour. Those in class A include alcohols, esters, aldehydes, methyl ketones and cyclic ketones provided that they contain less than nine carbon atoms. The solubility limit is somewhat lower than this for ethers thus re-propyl ether dissolves in 85 per cent, phosphoric acid but re-butyl ether and anisole do not. Ethyl benzoate and ethyl malonate are insoluble. 

Analogous to the classification of Lewis acids and bases in hard and soft species, Ahrland et al. have su ested a division of donors and acceptors into classes a and 6. See Ahrland, S. Chatt, J. Davies, N.R. Quart. Rev. 1958, 77, 265...

Experimentally Determined Volumes Delivered by a 10-mL Class A Pipet... 

Suppose that you need to add a reagent to a flask by several successive transfers using a class A 10-mL pipet. By calibrating the pipet (see Table 4.8), you know that it delivers a volume of 9.992 mL with a standard deviation of 0.006 mL. Since the pipet is calibrated, we can use the standard deviation as a measure of uncertainty. This uncertainty tells us that when we use the pipet to repetitively deliver 10 mL of solution, the volumes actually delivered are randomly scattered around the mean of 9.992 mL. 

The class A 10-mL pipet characterized in Table 4.8 is used to deliver two successive volumes. Calculate the absolute and relative uncertainties for the total delivered volume. 

In the Philippines, the principal suppHer of abaca fiber, the fibrous layer ia the sheath is separated with a knife between the layers, and the strips of fiber-containing layers, called tuxies, are pulled off and cleaned by hand to remove the pulp. In Indonesia and Central America these operations are performed mechanically. Hand- and spiadle-stripped fiber is graded for braids, fine textiles, and cordage decorticated fiber is another class. A cross-sectional view is shown ia Figure 4a. The abaca fiber has a large lumen and the presence of siUcified plates is not unusual. 

Low Level Waste. The NRC 10CFR61 specifies the nature of the protection required for waste containers (20). Class A wastes must meet minimum standards, including no use of cardboard, wastes must be solidified, have less than 1% Hquid, and not be combustible, corrosive, or explosive. Class B wastes must meet the minimum standards but also have stabiHty, ie, these must retain size and shape under soil weight, and not be influenced by moisture or radiation. Class C wastes must be isolated from a potential inadvertent intmder, ie, one who uses unrestricted land for a home or farm. Institutional control of a disposal faciHty for 100 years after closure is requited. 

The three classes of PE, designated as A, B, and C, specify the color, amount, and type of antioxidants and other additives. Class A refers to naturally colored PE, Class B includes white or black polymer, and Class C covers weather-resistant black polymer containing no less than 2% carbon black. Typical characteristics of resins used for film manufacture, injection mol ding, and blow mol ding are given in Table 5. 

Portable fire extinguishers are classified according to appHcabiHty Class A for soHd combustibles Class B for flammable Hquids Class C for electrical fires that require a nonconducting agent and Class D for combustible metals. Water frequently is used for Class A extinguishers bicarbonates for Class B and Class BC carbon dioxide or Freon for Class C ammonium phosphate for Class ABC and powdered salt, sodium chloride, for Class D. 

According to one classification (15,16), symmetrical dinuclear PMDs can be divided into two classes, A and B, with respect to the symmetry of the frontier molecular orbital (MO). Thus, the lowest unoccupied MO (LUMO) of class-A dyes is antisymmetrical and the highest occupied MO (HOMO) is symmetrical, and the TT-system contains an odd number of TT-electron pairs. On the other hand, the frontier MO symmetry of class-B dyes is the opposite, and the molecule has an even number of TT-electron pairs. 

Division of the receptors in the adrenergic nervous system into two classes (a and P) was proposed in 1948 (39) when a difference in the rank order of potency of epinephrine (1, R = CH ), norephinephrine (1, R = H), and isoproterenol [7683-59-2], C H yNO, (1, R = CH(CH3)2) was noted to depend on the organ examined. Eurther subdivision into groups P2 proposed in 1967 (40). Both types of P-adrenoceptors are found throughout the... 

Wa.ter Qua.litySta.nda.rds, The first step in water quahty standards is stream use classification. The individual states must decide what the uses of their water will be. The four categories, as defined by the EPA, are Class A, primary water contact recreation Class B, propagation of desirable aquatic life Class C, pubHc water suppHes prior to treatment and Class D, agricultural and industrial uses. States may vary the definition of these classes to meet their own needs. The second step is to develop water-quaHty criteria. This is the specific concentration of a pollutant that is allowable for the designated use. 

A variety of thermosetting resins are used in SMC. Polyesters represent the most volume and are available in systems that provide low shrinkage and low surface profile by means of special additives. Class A automotive surface requirements have resulted in the development of sophisticated systems that commercially produce auto body panels that can be taken direcdy from the mold and processed through standard automotive painting systems, without additional surface finishing. Vinyl ester and epoxy resins (qv) are also used in SMC for more stmcturaHy demanding appHcations.

An on-line concentration, isolation, and Hquid chromatographic separation method for the analysis of trace organics in natural waters has been described (63). Concentration and isolation are accompHshed with two precolumns connected in series the first acts as a filter for removal of interferences the second actually concentrates target solutes. The technique is appHcable even if no selective sorbent is available for the specific analyte of interest. Detection limits of less than 0.1 ppb were achieved for polar herbicides (qv) in the chlorotriazine and phenylurea classes. A novel method for deterrnination of tetracyclines in animal tissues and fluids was developed with sample extraction and cleanup based on tendency of tetracyclines to chelate with divalent metal ions (64). The metal chelate affinity precolumn was connected on-line to reversed-phase hplc column, and detection limits for several different tetracyclines in a variety of matrices were in the 10—50 ppb range.
