Metal fittings

Fig. 23(C) shows a reflux assembly with a stirrer fitted. The stirrer A is both held in position in the tube B and allowed to rotate freely by the lubricated rubber sleeve C, as described on p. 39, and is connected to a vertical motor above. The extent to which the stirrer dips into the liquid in the flask can readily be adjusted. The condenser (not shown) is fitted into D. This constitutes for many purposes the best type of stirrer. If desired, the rubber sleeve C can be replaced by a metal fitting E for a horizontal drive. The gas-inlet F is closed when not in use.

Metal inserts are usually not feasible, because thin walls are not sufficiently strong to hold inserts, particularly if thermal expansion and contraction of the product takes place in service. Figure 3-40 shows a method of holding metal fittings. It may be desirable to in-...

A platform or framework of wood or metal fitted with feet or otherwise recessed so that the forks of a forklift truck may be inserted for transportation of the load (bales of rubber, bags of compounding ingredients, etc.) as a unit. 

In contrast to the ionic complexes of sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, barium, and cadmium, the ease with which transition metal complexes are formed (high constant of complex formation) can partly be attributed to the suitably sized atomic radii of the corresponding metals. Incorporated into the space provided by the comparatively rigid phthalocyanine ring, these metals fit best. An unfavorable volume ratio between the space within the phthalocyanine ring and the inserted metal, as is the case with the manganese complex, results in a low complex stability.

Radially split casings shall have metal-to-metal fits, with confined controlled compression gaskets, such as an O-ring or a spiral wound type. 

Metals may be classified by a variety of categories. Some metals fit more than one of the following categories ... 

The Tenax-silica gel combination trap utilizes the adsorptive properties of two materials to provide a trap that effectively adsorbs and desorbs a wide variety of organic compounds. The small amount of OV-1 on glass wool at the trap inlet (Figure 2) is to insure that all the Tenax adsorbent is within the heated zone and is efficiently heated to the desorption temperature. A metal fitting at the trap inlet could act as a heat sink and create a cool spot on the Tenax if this spacer is not used. 

Hydrogen sulfide, mercaptans, active elemental sulfur, inorganic acids, and ammonia can all attack and corrode copper. The presence of these compounds in fuel can lead to destruction of copper heating lines, cooling coils, and nonferrous metal fittings. Also, hydrogen sulfide and mercaptans can contribute to fuel odor problems. 

Refurbishment of cooling tower structures to include replacement of wood with plastic or metal, fitting of new drift eliminators, or fill-packs, and epoxy painting of exposed metal surfaces. 

Books with metal fittings should be kept in boxes so that adjacent volumes are not damaged. If this cannot be done, a board should be slipped in between the volumes on either side to prevent contact. 

In indirect calibration there is inevitably some loss of accuracy in using a separate bulb, but there is also the opportunity to use a glass bulb which can be properly cleaned. Any gas bubbles can be seen and withdrawn, and also there are no inaccessible regions in the vicinity of metal fittings and valves. 

Other cadmium sources can include solder, galvanized pipes and metal fittings, pollution from disposal of cadmium-containing materials and from mining operations (see Chapter 7). However, concentrations of cadmium in drinking-water above the guideline value are unusual.

The reactions of acids with active metals fit into the single substitution class discussed in Section 8.3. Reactions of acids with bases are double substitution reactions, also discussed in Section 8.3. However, the reactions of acids and bases are so important that they have a special terminology that we need to know. 

It is also important to use flexible hose, and plastic inlet and outlet fittings. This is because pumps vibrate, and rigid connections do not fare well in this type of environment. Rigid metal fittings can be used at the pump, but if they... 

Galvanic compatibility is of most concern in electrolyzer design where a conductive KOH solution is used, and a variety of metals are used as electrodes, fasteners and containment vessels. It is also a concern for coupling I dissimilar metal fittings. 

Some have termed the kinetic preference for the less stable diastereomer—that is, the diastereomer characterized by a poorer substrate-metal fit than is the case with the more stable isomer—the anti-lock-and-key behavior of catalytic asymmetric hydrogenation. See also Footnote 10. 

Trace concentrations of a variety of elements have huge effects upon metals and can, in many cases, determine the metals fitness for various purposes in manufacture and use or the traces may disqualify a particular form of the metal from use either because of the changes in physical or chemical properties or because it may affect the end use or disposal of the metal.
