Dispersing Dissolution

At high relative humidities, adsorption is befleved to occur in response to a tendency for cellulose chains and lignin to disperse (solution tendency). Complete dispersion (dissolution) is prevented because of the strong interchain or interpolymer bonding at certain sites or regions. The differential heats of adsorption are much smaller than at low relative humidities.

Variations in the data will be discussed in terms of the stereochemistry of the glycosides used and correlated to existing stereoelectronic concepts. This leads to a discussion on the effects glycerol has on the type of compounds studied (and on those being used as a dispersive/dissolution medium). 

The processes included in weathering are evaporation, emulsification, natural dispersion, dissolution, photooxidation, sedimentation, adhesion to materials, interaction with mineral fines, biodegradation, and the formation of tar balls. These processes are listed in order of importance in terms of their effect on the percentage of total mass balance, i.e., the greatest loss from the slick in terms of percentage, and what is known about the process.

Polymer/Polymer Complexes. PVP complexes with other polymers capable of interacting by hydrogen-bonding, ion-dipole, or dispersion forces. For example mixing of PVP with poly(acryHc acid) (PAA) in aqueous solution results in immediate precipitation of an insoluble complex (113). Addition of base results in dismption of hydrogen bonding and dissolution (114—116). Complexes with a variety of poly-acids (117) and polyphenols (118) have been reported. The interest in compatibiHty on a molecular level, an interesting phenomenon rarely found to exist between dissimilar polymers, is favored by the abiHty of PVP to form polymer/polymer complexes. 

The bubble size in these cells tends to be the smallest (10 to 50 Im) as compared to the dissolved-air and dispersed-air flotation systems. Also, very httle turbulence is created by the bubble formation. Accordingly, this method is attractive for the separation of small particles and fragile floes. To date, electroflotation has been applied to effluent treatment and sludge thickening. However, because of their bubble generation capacity, these units are found to be economically attractive for small installations in the flow-rate range of 10 to 20 mVh. Electroflotation is not expected to be suitable for potable water treatment because of the possible heavy metal contamination that can arise due to the dissolution of the electrodes. 

Dissolution of 5 could be enhanced in H2O by solid dispersion systems with urea and mannitol (97MI27). A method for solubilizing 5 and 6 at near physiological pH was patented (98EUP856316). Solubility characteristics of 5 was investigated in an in vitro tear model (98MI24).

The polymeric latex obtained in a hydrophobic organic solvent is poorly dispersed in water because of the presence of an emulsifier with a low HLB value. For this reason, a wetting agent is added to water or emulsion prior to the dissolution. The wetting agent (a surface active substance with a high HLB value) facilitates the inversion of latex phases to produce a direct type emulsion. Usually, it belongs to oxyethylated alkylphenols, fatty alcohols, or fatty acids.
