Compatibility definition

A compatible definition appears in Introduction to Safety Engineering by Gloss and Wardle ... 

Two further expressions are used in discussions on isotope ratios. These are the atom% and the atom% excess, which are defined in Figure 48.6 and are related to abundance ratios R. It has been recommended that these definitions and some similar ones should be used routinely so as to conform with the system of international units (SI). While these proposals will almost certainly be accepted by mass spectrometrists, their adoption will still leave important data in the present format. Therefore, in this chapter, the current widely used methods for comparison of isotope ratios are fully described. The recommended Sl-compatible units such as atom% excess are introduced where necessary. 

The CD-I (compact disk-interactive) is a low cost alternative to the CD-ROM for the entertainment industry. CD-I is a subset of the CD-ROM standard data format. It allows the digital storage of data, audio, and video information in a form that permits rapid interaction with a computer. CD-I is compatible to CD-ROM and to CD-AD 0 = 120 mm. The definition of the CD-I format is put down in the Green Book (Philips/Sony). 

A plasticizer is a substance the addition of which to another material makes that material softer and more flexible. This broad definition encompasses the use of water to plasticize clay for the production of pottery, and oils to plasticize pitch for caulking boats. A more precise definition of plasticizers is that they are materials which, when added to a polymer, cause an increase in the flexibiUty and workabiUty, brought about by a decrease in the glass-transition temperature, T, of the polymer. The most widely plasticized polymer is poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) due to its excellent plasticizer compatibility characteristics, and the development of plasticizers closely follows the development of this commodity polymer. However, plasticizers have also been used and remain in use with other polymer types. 

Compatibility. Clear definition of compatibility is rather difficult. Compatibility has been defined as the ability of two or more materials to exist in close and permanent association for an indefinite period without phase separation and without adverse effect of one on the other [28]. On the other hand, compatibility is easily recognized in solvent-borne adhesives as a homogeneous blend of materials without phase separation. Normally, compatibility is understood as a clear transparent mixture of a resin with a given polymer. But, compatibility is a more complex thermodynamic phenomenon which can be evaluated from specific... 

Because of the number of chemicals and subsequent multiple number of potential reactions, it is impractical and (perhaps impossible) to list all potential reactions. Several systems exist for determining the reactions between classes of chemicals, however, none of them is definitive. Because all of the potential reactions for individual chemicals are not cataloged and because there are no (or very few), pure solutions of waste materials, laboratory compatibility testing is recommended for most materials. An appropriate protocol for compatibility testing would involve the following steps ... 

An organization may respond to these requirements in several ways, so in managing the quality system a list of the documents is needed which contains the definition of people s responsibilities and authority. The difficulty arises in keeping all such documents compatible and so it is often better to limit the documents to the three types above, if possible. 

In a thermodynamic sense, the compatibility of polymers is similar to the dissolving solute in a solvent. The thermodynamic standard of solubility is the free energy of mixing Ga. If AGm < 0, then two components are soluble to each other. According to the definition ... 

There are many definitions of polymer compatibility. On one hand, compatible polymers are the polymer mixtures that have desirable physical properties when... 

One chemical will be a solvent for another if the molecules are able to co-exist on a molecular scale, i.e. the molecules show no tendency to separate. In these circumstances we say that the two species are compatible. The definition concerns equilibrium properties and gives no indication of the rate of solution which will depend on other factors such as temperature, the molecular size of the solvent and the size of voids in the solute. 

These definitions are of course compatible with the interpretation of oxidation and reduction in terms of loss and gain of electrons. An element that loses electrons must increase in oxidation number. The gain of electrons always results in a decrease in oxidation number. 

Now we are ready to formulate the basic idea of the correction algorithm in order to correct the four-indexed operator f1, it is enough to correct the two-indexed operators fc and f 1 in the supermatrix representation (7.100). The real advantage of this proposal is its compatibility with any definite way of f2 and P7 correction [61, 294], The matrix inversion demanded in (7.99) is divided into two stages. In the fi, v subspace it is possible to find the inverse matrix analytically with the help of the Frobenius formula that is well known in matrix algebra [295]. The... 

Proper definition of the reference state is essential for the compatibility of values of the free enthalpy of adsorption results in values of obtained by various authors and with different methods [87Jas,... 

Alkenes can add to double bonds in a reaction different from those discussed in 15-19, which, however, is still formally the addition of RH to a double bond. This is called the ene reaction or the ene synthesis For the reaction to proceed without a catalyst, one of the components must be a reactive dienophile (see 15-58 for a definition of this word) such as maleic anhydride, but the other (which supplies the hydrogen) may be a simple alkene such as propene. Cyclopropene has also been used. ° The reaction is compatible with a variety of functional groups that can be appended to the ene and dienophile. N,N-Diallyl amides give an ene cyclization. 

Not all nucleophiles are compatible with acid conditions, and unfortunately most carbon nucleophiles, especially RHgBr and RLi,definitely cannot be used in this way. The Friodel-Crafts reaction, with an aromatic ring as the carbon nucleophile, is quite satlsfactory. ... 

Intermolecular recognition and self-assembly processes both in the solid, liquid, and gas phases are the result of the balanced action of steric and electronic factors related to shape complementarity, size compatibility, and specific anisotropic interactions. Rather than pursuing specific and definitive rules for recognition and self-assembly processes, we will afford some heuristic principles that can be used as guidelines in XB-based supramolecular chemistry.

A definite microwave effect is involved when strict comparisons of MW and A activation are considered and is compatible with the mechanistic assumption that a very polar TS is developed (Scheme 3.12).
