Metal oxides hydration

With Acyl Halides, Hydrogen Halides, and Metallic Halides. Ethylene oxide reacts with acetyl chloride at slightly elevated temperatures in the presence of hydrogen chloride to give the acetate of ethylene chlorohydrin (70). Hydrogen haUdes react to form the corresponding halohydrins (71). Aqueous solutions of ethylene oxide and a metallic haUde can result in the precipitation of the metal hydroxide (72,73). The haUdes of aluminum, chromium, iron, thorium, and zinc in dilute solution react with ethylene oxide to form sols or gels of the metal oxide hydrates and ethylene halohydrin (74). 

Rowley, A. T. et al., Inorg. Chem. Acta, 1993, 211(1), 77 Preparation of metal oxides by fusing metal halides with lithium oxide in a sealed tube leads to explosions if halide hydrates are employed, particularly lanthanide trihalide hydrates. The preparation succeeds with anhydrous halides. This will be purely a question of vapour pressure above an exothermic reaction the question is whether the vapour is water, or metal halide, and the reaction oxide formation, or hydration of lithium oxide. Like other alkali metal oxides, hydration is extremely energetic.

Sometimes, however, a comparison between the adsorption branch and the desorption branch may lead to a conclusion about the shape of the capillaries. An adsorption branch which has no inflexion point and gives a sharp rise only for relative pressures close to unity, combined with a desorption branch showing a definite inflexion point at medium values of relative pressures, indicates fissure-shaped capillaries (68). Hysteresis curves of this form are, for example, found with a lomerations which consist of disk- or plate-shaped particles, such as montmorillonites, and indeed hysteresis curves published by Barrer and MacLeod (59) show this behavior. Similar curves are found with the dehydration products of many well-crystallized metal oxide hydrates, such as those of the aluminum hydrates (gibbsite, bayerite, boehmite, and diaspora) (60). 

The calculations also perhaps explain the difference in composition between the small, Earth-like inner terrestrial planets and the large outer Jovian planets. The terrestrial planets presumably condensed at much higher temperatures and are thus composed of metals, metal oxides, and silicates. The Jovian planets would have formed at far lower temperatures within the primitive solar nebula and consist predominantly of frozen volatile compounds such as methane, water, ammonia, and so on. Finally, a possible case for early layering of the Elarth can be drawn from the calculations within a cooling nebula metallic Fe and Ni would condense first, followed by spinels, pyroxenes and olivines, with a final lower temperature layer of alkali feldspar, metal oxides, hydrated silicates and, of course, water itself at 0°C.

Hydrated metal oxides such as alumina hydrate are usually used alone because these are not synergistic with the halogens. They are useful ia apphcations ia which the halogens are excluded or low processing temperatures are used. 

Although catalytic hydration of ethylene oxide to maximize ethylene glycol production has been studied by a number of companies with numerous materials patented as catalysts, there has been no reported industrial manufacture of ethylene glycol via catalytic ethylene oxide hydrolysis. Studied catalysts include sulfonic acids, carboxyUc acids and salts, cation-exchange resins, acidic zeoHtes, haUdes, anion-exchange resins, metals, metal oxides, and metal salts (21—26). Carbon dioxide as a cocatalyst with many of the same materials has also received extensive study. 

Lauramide has been prepared by passing ammonia gas through lauric acid in the presence of metallic oxides, specifically a complex mixture of Si02—AI2O2—Fe202—CaO—SO in the ratio of 24 16 3 47 10. The oxides, which are hydrated during amidation, can be regenerated by calcination (12,13). 

Stannous Oxide Hydrate. Stannous oxide hydrate [12026-24-3] SnO H2O (sometimes erroneously called stannous hydroxide or stannous acid), mol wt 152.7, is obtained as a white amorphous crystalline product on treatment of stannous chloride solutions with alkaH. It dissolves in alkaH solutions, forming stannites. The stannite solutions, which decompose readily to alkaH-metal stannates and tin, have been used industrially for immersion tinning. 

Antimony trioxide is insoluble in organic solvents and only very slightly soluble in water. The compound does form a number of hydrates of indefinite composition which are related to the hypothetical antimonic(III) acid (antimonous acid). In acidic solution antimony trioxide dissolves to form a complex series of polyantimonic(III) acids freshly precipitated antimony trioxide dissolves in strongly basic solutions with the formation of the antimonate ion [29872-00-2] Sb(OH) , as well as more complex species. Addition of suitable metal ions to these solutions permits formation of salts. Other derivatives are made by heating antimony trioxide with appropriate metal oxides or carbonates. 

In general, hydrated borates of heavy metals ate prepared by mixing aqueous solutions or suspensions of the metal oxides, sulfates, or halides and boric acid or alkali metal borates such as borax. The precipitates formed from basic solutions are often sparingly-soluble amorphous soHds having variable compositions. Crystalline products are generally obtained from slightly acidic solutions. 

Anhydrous metal borates may be prepared by heating the hydrated salts to 300—500°C, or by direct fusion of the metal oxide with boric acid or B2O2. Many binary and tertiary anhydrous systems containing B2O2 form vitreous phases over certain ranges of composition (145).

Hydration of Ethyl Ether. Using the same type of acid catalysts as in the hydration of ethylene to ethanol, ethyl ether can be hydrated to the alcohol. Catalysts that have been used for the hydration of ether include phosphoric acid (144), sulfuric acid (145,146), hydrochloric acid (147), metallic oxides (141,148,149) and sihcates (150). Sulfuric acid concentrations ranging from 5—25% at 200°C (144) to 63—70% at 110—135°C and 1.01—1.42 MPa (10—14 atm) (148) have been claimed. 

Apart from the application of XPS in catalysis, the study of corrosion mechanisms and corrosion products is a major area of application. Special attention must be devoted to artifacts arising from X-ray irradiation. For example, reduction of metal oxides (e. g. CuO -> CU2O) can occur, loosely bound water or hydrates can be desorbed in the spectrometer vacuum, and hydroxides can decompose. Thorough investigations are supported by other surface-analytical and/or microscopic techniques, e.g. AFM, which is becoming increasingly important. 

Titanium dioxide used for adhesive applications should contain an inorganic coating to control polarity, improve its ease of dispersion, and improve its weather resistance. The inorganic coating (zirconium dioxide, silica, alumina) is applied in the aqueous sluny by precipitation of one or more hydrated metal oxides and by neutralization of acidic and alkaline compounds.
