Iron hydroxides zinc oxide using

Recently, several metal oxides apart from silica have been investigated and reported for mbber-based nanocomposites. Some important and commercially meaningful oxides used in rubber are zinc oxide (ZnO), magnesium hydroxide (MH), calcium carbonate, zirconate, iron oxide, etc. 

In order to overcome certain difficulties such as the dissipation of heat and the use of inflammable mixtures, certain liquid phase processes have been proposed for the oxidation of aromatic hydrocarbons and compounds. In such a process 100 the aromatic hydrocarbons or their halogenated derivatives are treated with air or gas containing free molecular oxygen in the liquid phase at temperatures above ISO0 C. and under pressure in the presence of a substantial quantity of liquid water. A small quantity of such oxidation catalysts as oxides or hydroxides of copper, nickel, cobalt, iron or oxides of manganese, cerium, osmium, uranium, vanadium, chromium and zinc is used. The formation of benzaldehyde from toluene is claimed for the process. 

Hydrogen sulfide reacts easily with iron oxide, iron hydroxide, and zinc oxide and forms iron sulfide or zinc sulfide, respectively [18]. This process is often referred to as iron sponge because rust-covered steel wool may be used to form the reaction bed. 

Among the other bulk inorganic chemicals whose manufacture includes the use of a decanter are aluminium and magnesium hydroxides, iron oxides and salts, calcium carbonate and other salts, silicon and silicates, caustic soda, sodium carbonate and other salts, graphite, uranium "yellow cake , gypsum, and zinc oxide and salts. Calcium carbonate is a particularly difficult material to treat in a decanter, in that it needs very high torque to achieve an adequate level of cake dryness. 

Bohm et al. (2000), using elhpsometry, established the thickness of the hydroxide/oxide film formed on iron and zinc when lanthanide elements were present in the corrosive medium. They determined that the thickness of the inhibiting layer on zinc was 50 nm, 37 nm and 12.5 nm for La(III), Ce(ni) and Y(III), respectively, after 1500 seconds of immersion. 

Partial blocking effect was first identified for pure iron in contact with aerated sulphuric acid medium [55]. Corrosion of carbon steel in sodium chloride media clearly showed the porous layer effect (see Section 5.2) [74]. The same effect was found for zinc corrosion in sodium sulphate [75] and the properties of the layer which was demonstrated to be formed of an oxide/hydroxide mixture were further used for building a general kinetic model of anodic dissolution [76], usable for measurement of the corrosion rate from impedance data. 

Although this was a simple, relatively safe mixture, and was a satisfactory primer, it was discontinued after a very short period because of two major disadvantages. It was shown that copper, bismuth, silver, iron, and nickel increased the oxidation rate of red phosphorus to acidic compounds. Primer cups had to be zinc plated to prevent contact with copper. The red phosphorus had to be of high purity, and it was necessary to remove the major impurities (iron and copper) from commercial red phosphorus before use, and to coat the purified material with up to 7.5% aluminum hydroxide which inhibited oxidation.
