Migration rates

If we assume that the rates of adsorption and desorption are both large compared with the surface migration rate, the surface and bulk concentrations of each species will be almost in equlibriura, and hence will be... 

After the 20K step increase in feed temperature, not much change could be observed for two minutes. Then the last thermocouple started to increase from 560 to 1200 K level, and the hot zone widened. The forward migration rate of the hot zone was about 5 cm/min. After about six minutes, the oxygen content of the cycle gas became very low and temperature slowly started to decline. With this the experiment terminated. 

An order of magnitude higher radiation parameter R was needed than reported in the literature to match the observed migration rate. 

The most significant contaminant movement in soils is a function of liquid movement. Dry, soluble contaminants dissolved in precipitation, run-on, or human applied water will migrate through percolation into the soil. Migration rates are a function of net water recharge rates and contaminant solubility. 

Determine maximum potential migration rate and dispersion of contaminants... 

These data show that the 566TPU/PVC polymeric blend has good mechanical properties, especially at low temperatures. Other tests showed very good oil resistance of this material. Also, the migration rate of plasticizer is only one-fourth of that of commercial medical grade flexible PVC material. 

Lehocky et al. [76] reported the migration rates of IPPD, 6PPD, and SPPD (see Figure 15.14), determined in different polymers and at different temperatures. SPPD showed the lowest migration rate and is therefore expected to last longest in mbber compounds, see Table 15.4. However, the importance of the migration rate should not be overestimated, as the value is not sufficient to determine the effect and the efficiency of the antiozonant. 

Solvents of high viscosity. A reduced viscosity of the mixture results in an increased migration rate, less diffusion and, thus, a focused band. For example, it is advantageous to select methanol instead of propanol because of its lower viscosity. 

The migration rate of a groundwater constituent, relative to the groundwater flow rate, is controlled by the retardation factor, where Ri = 1 + Ki. Where Ki 1 (e.g., for Th and Ra), Ri Ki, and Iads + Iw = IwRi- Note that ki and k-i are element-specific but not isotope-specific. All isotopes that decay slower than desorption, so that k-i have a value of Ki that is equal to that of a stable isotope (Eqn. 3). The value of Ki may be lower for the shortest-lived nuclides (see Fig. 2b), and so a series of equations derived from Equation (3) applied to different isotopes of the same element may be used to obtain absolute values for the separate rate constants. 

Capillary electrophoresis offers several useful methods for (i) fast, highly efficient separations of ionic species (ii) fast separations of macromolecules (biopolymers) and (iii) development of small volume separations-based sensors. The very low-solvent flow (l-10nL min-1) CE technique, which is capable of providing exceptional separation efficiencies, places great demands on injection, detection and the other processes involved. The total volume of the capillaries typically used in CE is a few microlitres. CE instrumentation must deliver nL volumes reproducibly every time. The peak width of an analyte obtained from an electropherogram depends not only on the bandwidth of the analyte in the capillary but also on the migration rate of the analyte. 

The product ratio a /b (statistically corrected for the number of competing H migrants), gives the relative migration rate of Ha vs. Hb, or k /kub- The rate constant for the migration of Ha corresponds to the intrinsic migratory aptitude of Ha (M[H]) multiplied by the bystander assistance factor for Y, B[Y], The carbon atom that bears Hb has no bystander substituent, so that km, is simply A/[H], We thus obtain Eq. 24. 

Separation mainly of charged materials by differential migration across a surface or through a column in an applied potential gradient migration rates dependent upon size, shape and charge of species. 

Using the results on biogeochemical uptake and content of trace metals in Spruce Forest ecosystems (Dobrovolsky, 1994), we can calculate the biogeochemical migration rates (Table 8).
