Classification and Types

The term filler is very broad and encompasses a very wide range of materials. In this book, we arbitrarily define as fillers a variety of solid particulate materials (inorganic, organic) that may be irregular, acicular, fibrous, or plate-like in shape and that are used in reasonably large volume loadings in plastics. Pigments and elastomeric matrices are normally not included in this definition. 

There is a significant diversity in chemical structures, forms, shapes, sizes, and inherent properties of the various inorganic and organic compounds that are used as 

Glass (fibers, spheres, hollow spheres, and flakes), 

kaolin, woHastonite, montmoriHonite, feldspar, and asbestos 

Carbon fibers, graphite fibers and flakes, carbon nanotubes, and carbon black

Chapter 2 covers the basic principles of chemical kinetics and catalysis and gives a brief introduction on classification and types of chemical reactors. Differential and integral methods of analysis of rate equations for different types of reactions—irreversible and reversible reactions, autocatalytic reactions, elementary and non-elementary reactions, and series and parallel reactions are discussed in detail. Development of rate equations for solid catalysed reactions and enzyme catalysed biochemical reactions are presented. Methods for estimation of kinetic parameters from batch reactor data are explained with a number of illustrative examples and solved problems. 

The usage of a neural network varies depending on the aim and especially on the network type. This tutorial covers two applications on the one hand the usage of a Kohonen network for classification, and on the other hand the prediction of object properties with a counter-propagation network,... 

The hysteresis loops to be found in the literature are of various shapes. The classification originally put forward by de Boer S in 1958 has proved useful, but subsequent experience has shown that his Types C and D hardly ever occur in practice. Moreover in Type B the closure of the loop is never characterized by the vertical branch at saturation pressure, shown in the de Boer diagrams. In the revised classification presented in Fig. 3.5, therefore. Types C and D have been omitted and Type B redrawn at the high-pressure end. The designation E is so well established in the literature that it is retained here, despite the interruption in the sequence of lettering. 

Production and Shipment. Estimated adiponitrile production capacities in the U.S. in 1992 were about 625 thousand metric tons and worldwide capacity was in excess of lO metric tons. The DOT/IMO classification for adiponitrile is class 6.1 hazard, UN No. 2205. It requires a POISON label on all containers and is in packing group III. Approved materials of constmction for shipping, storage, and associated transportation equipment are carbon steel and type 316 stainless steel. Either centrifugal or positive displacement pumps may be used. Carbon dioxide or chemical-foam fire extinguishers should be used. There are no specifications for commercial adiponitrile. The typical composition is 99.5 wt % adiponitrile. Impurities that may be present depend on the method of manufacture, and thus, vary depending on the source. 

Ha.rd Coa.1, The amount of coal in international commerce since ca 1945 necessitated an international system of coal classification and in 1956 the Coal Committee of the European Economic Community agreed on a system designated the International Classification of Hard Coal by Type (3). Volatile matter and gross calorific value on a moist, ash-free basis are among the parameters considered. Table 4 shows the various classes of the international system and gives the corresponding national names used for these coals. 

The laterites can be divided into three general classifications (/) iron nickeliferrous limonite which contains approximately 0.8—1.5 wt % nickel. The nickel to cobalt ratios for these ores are typically 10 1 (2) high siUcon serpentinous ores that contain more than 1.5 wt % nickel and (J) a transition ore between type 1 and type 2 containing about 0.7—0.2 wt % nickel and a nickel to cobalt ratio of approximately 50 1. Laterites found in the United States (8) contain 0.5—1.2 wt % nickel and the nickel occurs as the mineral goethite. Cobalt occurs in the lateritic ore with manganese oxide at an estimated wt % of 0.06 to 0.25 (9). 

Although it is impossible to Hst all the practical detersive systems that might be encountered, a large proportion fall in a small number of classes. This classification disregards surfactant stmcture and type of substrate (fibrous or hard surface) and is restricted to a consideration of the soil present on the substrate, the mechanical action employed, the bath ratio, and the detergent used. Some of the more commonly encountered detersive systems are classified on this basis in Table 1. 

Enzyme Nomenclature. The number of enzymes known exceeds two thousand. A system of classification and nomenclature is required to identify them unambiguously. During the nineteenth century, it was the practice to identify enzymes by adding the suffix -in to the name of their source. Names such as papain, ftcin, trypsin, pepsin, etc, are still in use. However, this system does not give any indication of the nature of the reaction catalyzed by the enzyme or the type of substrate involved. 

A system based partly on historical names, partly on the substrate, and partly on the type of reaction catalyzed is far from satisfactory. In 1956, the International Union of Biochemistry set up a Commission on Enzymes to consider the classification and nomenclature of enzymes. The Commission presented a report in 1961 whose recommendations for naming and classifying enzymes were subsequently adopted (12). Enzymes are classified on the basis of the reactions they catalyze. Despite its apparent complexities, the system is precise and very descriptive, accommodating existing enzymes and serving as a systematic basis for the naming of new enzymes. AH enzymes are placed in one of the six principal classes.

The selection of the motor enclosure type involves not only economics but also assessment of two factors area hazard classification and other area operation conditions. 

The compressor or blower installation in a typical refinery or chemical process unit is not out-of-doors completely. Some form of shelter often is provided, ranging from only a roof to a completely closed building. When process equipment such as a centrifugal gas compressor, which is not hazardous in normal operation, is present in the shelter, the hazard classification depends on the extent to that which the shelter restricts ventilation. The extent of the shelter provided determines the area classification and the type of motor enclosure that should be applied.

The production of aluminum begins with the mining and beneficiation of bauxite. At the mine (usually of the surface type), bauxite ore is removed to a crusher. The crushed ore is then screened and stockpiled, ready for delivery to an alumina plant. In some cases, ore is upgraded by beneficiation (washing, size classification, and separation of liquids and solids) to remove unwanted materials such as clay and silica.
