The decomposition of the nitrates produces oxygen molecules, and we have verified that if a mixture of silver nitrates and closed tubes is submitted to a thermal treatment (400°C) decomposing the salt, it is possible to observe filled CNTs (Ag, Co, Cu [34]). It appears that oxygen liberated during the thermal decomposition of the metal salt erodes the CNT tip and the yet un-decomposed salt then enters by capillarity (see Fig. 8). We have also observed during the electron-irradiation decomposition of enclosed nitrate that the liberated gases erodes the CNT cavity [22] (see the innermost tubes in Fig. 5). 

PE/PP (25 %), rubbers (including EVA) (20 %) and other thermoplastics (5 %). Physical blowing agents (PBAs) liberate gases as a result of physical processes (evaporation, desorption) at elevated temperatures or reduced pressures. PBAs are mostly volatile liquids, freons, aliphatic hydrocarbons or solid blowing agents. 

There are four of these electrodes per cell, which re arranged as indicated in the diagram. When the urrent is switched on the gases are liberated on the lectrodes within the glass tube consequently no mixing f the liberated gases can take place. 

Reactions. Because it contains both a carboxyl and a primary hydroxyl group, glycolic- acid can react as an acid or an alcohol or both. Thus some of the important reactions it can undergo are esterification, umidation. salt formation, and complexation with metal ions, which lead to many of its uses. As a fairly strong acid it can liberate gases (often toxici when il reacts wilh Ihe corresponding salts. 

The remainder of the distillation must be conducted with extreme care. As soon as the ethyl oxomalonate has partly distilled over and the temperature has risen somewhat, the remaining iso-nitroso compound begins to decompose and sometimes liberates gases so rapidly that the thermometer and capillary tube may be blown out of the flask. If the manometer is watched closely, and at the first sign of liberation of gas, as evinced by a sudden increase in pressure, a wet towel is placed around the flask, the reaction can be slowed down. 

In the last-named case the reaction is dangerously explosive and should only be carried out with small quantities of the reagents. Ozone is also formed during the decomposition by heat of potassium chlorate, and by the action of nitric acid, preferably of density 1-33, on ammonium persulphate1 carefully warmed up to 65° to 75° C. The liberated gases are washed with caustic-potash solution and contain from 3 to 5 per cent, of ozone. 

In the drying zone at the top of the bed, the hot upward-flowing gases remove moisture from the coal. As the coal moves down the bed, its temperature increases, and at about 600-900°F pyrolysis occurs, liberating gases, oils, and tars. As the devolatilized coal (char) further descends, it is gasified by reaction... 

A third difficulty in many thermoset systems is due to the fact that they are condensation reactions, which liberate gases, or volatile liquids that must be vented to permit production of solid flaw-free parts. Venting is an established practice in molding of thermosets. 

The other method of enumerating coliforms is through the use of the multiple-tube technique. This method is statistical in nature and the result is reported as the most probable number (MPN) of organisms. Hence, the other name of this method is the MPN technique. This technique is an extension of the qualitative techniques of presumptive, confirmed, and completed tests. In other words, MPN results can be a presumptive, confirmed, and completed MPNs. The number of tubes liberating gases is counted from each of the set of hve tubes. This information is then used to compute the most probable number of organisms in the sample per 100 mL. 

Shah41 found that the gaseous oxides liberated when carbon is heated are not readsorbed when the temperature is lowered, and this indicates that the oxides are held in a form different from that in which they are evolved. The ratio of carbon monoxide to dioxide in the liberated gases not only depends on the temperature at which the gases are driven off, but also is a function of the temperature at which the oxygen was originally fixed. This indicates that various types of oxides can form. 

Table 9.3 overleaf provides a summary of the reactions which liberate gases. 

In the injection molding process, mold leads to tribological (frictional) problems. Plastic materials while processing liberate gases, resulting in corrosion and wear of the mold material. In addition, the flow of molten plastic in contact with mold surfaces, problems of abrasion, adhesion, release, and fatigue commonly occur [28]. Appropriate surface modification... 

Liberated gases are drawn off at the top of the tower. The gas is recovered to manufacture refrigerated liquefied petroleum gas (LPG). A condensed naptha stream is split into light naptha for gasoline blending and heavy naptha for further reforming. 

The heat of explosion calculated from the above equation is 1,543 kJ kg (Hg in gas phase) and the volume of liberated gases is 311 dm kg [43]. A similar value of 1,660 kJ kg was published by Wohler and Martin who determined heat of explosion in a calorimeter [57]. 

The liberated gases are passed in succession through a cold trap at -85 C, a cone. NaOH solution, an NaHSO solution, two cold traps at -85 C, an activated charcoal trap at -85 C, and an activated charcoal trap at -195 C. When dissolution is complete the solution is swept with about 300 cc of helium at 10 cm Hg over a period of 3-4 min. (See Note 1, below). The procedure to this point can be completed.within 10 min. after the end of an irradiation. The dissolver flask is immediately closed off. 

Liberated gases can act corrosively (e.g., HCl in PVC), cause crack formation (e.g., in CN, POM, PVC-U), or cause foaming in the material (e.g. PMMA at increased temperatures). In general, gas liberation decreases with increasing radiation dose because of secondary reactions between the cleavage products and simultaneously...
