Crown ether (Section 16.4) A cyclic polyether that, via ion-dipole attractive forces, forms stable complexes with metal ions. Such complexes, along with their accompanying anion, are soluble in nonpolar solvents. 

A shaft rotating at 4000-6000 rev/min carries a primary air fan and an atomizing cup. The cup, typically of about 70-120 mm diameter, is tapered by a few degrees to increase in diameter at the exit. A stationary distributor which projects oil onto the smaller-diameter end of the cup feeds oil to the inner surface. The oil, influenced by centrifugal force, forms a thin film, which passes towards the cup lip. Atomization occurs as the oil leaves this lip. In addition, a primary air supply, normally in the range of 5-12 per cent of stoichiometric (chemically correct) air. 

Liquid Metal Sources. The source feed is a metal of low melting point - Ga and In are commonly employed. It is introduced as a liquid film flowing over a needle towards the tip whose radius is relatively blunt (10 pm). The electrostatic and surface tension forces form the liquid into a sharp point known as the Taylor cone. Here the high electric field is sufficient to allow an electron to tunnel from the atom to the surface, leaving the atom ionized. 

REP, a rod of metal or alloy, referred to as a consumable electrode, is rotated at high speed about its longitudinal axis. Simultaneously, it is melted gradually at one of its ends by a heat source, such as an arc, a plasma, or an electron beam, etc. A thin film of the molten metal is detached from the rod end and ejected from the periphery of the rod by centrifugal force, forming spherical droplets. The atomization is conducted in an inert atmosphere, usually argon. Helium may be used to increase arc stability and convective cooling efficiency of droplets. 

Complex formation is important in photophysics. Two terms need to be described here first, an exciplex, which is an excited state complex formed between two different kinds of molecules, one that is excited and the other that is in its grown state second, an excimer, which is similar to exciplex except that the complex is formed between like molecules. Here, we will focus on excimer complexes that form between two like polymer chains or within the same polymer chain. Such complexes are often formed between two aromatic structures. Resonance interactions between aromatic structures, such as two phenyl rings in PS, give a weak intermolecular force formed from attractions between the pi-electrons of the two aromatic entities. Excimers involving such aromatic structures give strong fluorescence. 

The collection of particles is achieved in a countercurrent flow between the water droplets and the particulates. In a cyclonic scrubber, water is injected into the cyclone chamber from sprayers located along the central axis, as shown in Fig. 7.19. The water droplets capture particles mainly in the cross-flow motion and are thrown to the wall by centrifugal force, forming a layer of slurry flow moving downward to the outlet at the bottom of the cyclone. Another type of scrubber employs a venturi, as shown in Fig. 7.20. The velocity of the gas-solid suspension flow is accelerated to a maximum value at the venturi throat. The inlet of the water spray is located just before the venturi throat so that the maximum difference in velocity between droplets and particles is obtained to achieve higher collection efficiency by inertial impaction. A venturi scrubber is usually operated with a particle collector such as a settling chamber or cyclone for slurry collection. 

We saw in Sec. V,5 that molecules with peripheral dipoles, such as OH, Nil, and, COOH groups are attracted strongly by the electrostatic field of the surface. These dipole forces form the most important contributions toward the adsorption energy when such molecules are adsorbed on ionic surfaces, nonpolar van der Waals forces and electrostatic polarization giving smaller contributions (133). 

When the Bom, double-layer, and van der Waals forces act over distances that are short compared to the diffusion boundary-layer thickness, and when the e forces form an energy hairier, the adsorption and desorption rates may be calculated by lumping the effect of the interactions into a boundary condition on the usual ccm-vective-diffusion equation. This condition takes the form of a first-order, reversible reaction on the collector s surface. The apparent rate constants and equilibrium collector capacity are explicitly related to the interaction profile and are shown to have the Arrhenius form. They do not depend on the collector geometry or flow pattern. 

What about substances made of non-polar molecules You learned in Chapter 3 that weak dispersion forces form between non-polar molecules. As temporary dipoles form, they cause molecules to move closer together. However, these attractions are temporary and weak. Thus, most small non-polar molecules do not hold together long enough to maintain their solid or liquid forms. As a result, most small non-polar molecules exist as gases at room temperature. For example, carbon dioxide (C02) is a gas at normal temperatures. 

Picture inflating a basketball. As you add more and more air to it, more molecules collide against the inside wall of the basketball. Each collision exerts a force on the basketball s inner surface area. The collective number of collisions as well as the strength of the force form the net or overall gas pressure. Since the molecules move in all directions, the net pressure exerted will be equal throughout. (Figure 11.8 illustrates this.)... 

Coefficients Ly are also called Onsager coefficients because they have the same properties as coefficients Ly. The flux form of writing the function P or djS/dt is identical to the force form (2.6) and may appear sometimes to be preferable for mathematical analysis.

Similar to (TMS -f O2) plasma-treated PP, many of the (TMS -f O2) plasma-treated polymers showed that the three-phase contact line hardly recedes on the wet surface. Specifically, (TMS + O2) plasma-treated PTFE, UHMWPE, PP, HDPE, PVDF, and nylon showed hardly any change in contact area during the receding process. This is due to the strong specific attractive forces formed at the surface underneath the bulk droplet, i.e., the interfacial tension (underneath the droplet) changed due to the interaction of water with the surface. 

Newton s third law states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. The action and reaction are equal and opposite forces forming an action reaction pair. If you are sitting in a chair. Earth s gravity pulls you down. The reaction is that you pull Earth up with exactly the same amount of force. The action reaction pair is you on Earth, Earth on you. The reaction is NOT as is often thought the floor or chair holding you up. Not all equal and opposite forces form an action reaction pair. 

The molecular forces are secondary or van der Waals forces. It is also conceivable that primary valence forces form chemical bonds, either covalent or ionic, between adhesive and adherend. The contribution of covalent bonds to bond strength is a subject of great, if sometimes controversial, interest (6).

The thin layer of liquid between two small planes of area A (Figure 8.5) is considered to be part of a laminar flow. For a greater velocity, the middle layer pulls forward with an equal force F, while the layer below, which has lesser velocity, pulls the middle layer back with an equal force F. These two equal and opposite parallel forces form a shear couple and produce a shear stress of magnitude F/A. Newton suggested that the shear stress is directly proportional to the velocity gradient ... 

Solutions with compounds having similar sizes, shapes, and intermolecular forces form ideal solutions, e.g., hexane/heptane, heptanol/hexanol. In these cases the activity coefficient is (close to) unity. For most solutions that do not include polymers, however, the activity coefficient differs significantly from unity and it is usually higher than one, but it can be also lower than one in some specific cases when strong hydrogen bonding or other association effects are present, e.g., chloroform-acetone.
