Crystallization controlled

Controlled crystallization of glass samples has been tried with typical annealing temperatures of 15-80°C above Tg and characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) (Fig. 1.2), XRD (Fig. 1.3), and visible and IR transmission spectra (Fig. 1.4).

A typical flow diagram for pentaerythritol production is shown in Figure 2. The main concern in mixing is to avoid loss of temperature control in this exothermic reaction, which can lead to excessive by-product formation and/or reduced yields of pentaerythritol (55,58,59). The reaction time depends on the reaction temperature and may vary from about 0.5 to 4 h at final temperatures of about 65 and 35°C, respectively. The reactor product, neutralized with acetic or formic acid, is then stripped of excess formaldehyde and water to produce a highly concentrated solution of pentaerythritol reaction products. This is then cooled under carefully controlled crystallization conditions so that the crystals can be readily separated from the Hquors by subsequent filtration. 

The alkah metal perchlorates are either white or colorless, and have increasing solubiUty in water in the order of Na > Li > NH4 > K> Rb > Cs. The high solubiUty of sodium perchlorate, NaClO, makes this material useful as an intermediate for production of all other perchlorates by double metathesis reactions and controlled crystallization. 

A phosphate-sludge conditioner blend may be employed because the deposit control agent or sludge conditioner limits and controls crystal formation (threshold and crystal distortion effects) and ensures particle fluidization (dispersion effect).

Emulsifiers assist the stabilizing hydrocolloids in controlling crystal structure. They accentuate the function of the homogenizer in reducing the size of the fat globules. They also reduce the interfacial tension between the fat and water phases of the mix. The result is smaller ice particles and air cells when the mix is frozen and a smoother and creamier finished product. 

A typical instrument is equipped with four computer controlled crystal spectrometers, as well as an EDS system for preliminary qualitative analysis. A light microscope is provided for examining the specimen and also for ensuring that the specimen height is adjusted until it is on the Rowland circle. The drawing of...

The latest results of a controlled crystallization of macromolecules are the polymer fibrids which are a completely new modification of synthetic polymers as far as the micro- and macro-structure is concerned. They exist of small fibers having a length of up to some millimeters, which are highly oriented, and which have a macro-morphology similar to that of cellulose pulp.
