Nitrogen and air

The thermal stability of PTFE is exceptionally high in both nitrogen and air Thermal decomposition rates are immeasurably slow at 440 °C but high at 540 °C References are listed on pages 1116-1118...

Figure 4.17 shows the effect of elevated pressure on the flammability of natural gas in mixtures with nitrogen and air. We see the upper limit significantly increase with... 

Common GC mobile phases (see Table 13.2) are hydrogen, argon, helium, nitrogen, and air. Helium and nitrogen are the most commonly used. Because gas chromatographic detectors are extremely sensitive and it is desirable to keep the noise level as low as possible, it is always advisable to use very high-purity gas as the mobile phase. 

The reagents, blank and samples are then presented to the vapour generator. Argon is the preferred transfer gas, since nitrogen and air quench the fluorescence and reduce sensitivity by 8 and 30 times respectively. 

TGA. Unlike the previous two sets of molding compounds, the semiconductor grade novolacs investigated in this section do not differ solely in the presence or absence of a flame retardant. However, they are considered to be relatively equivalent. Weight loss measurements for the FR formulation, sample F, and the non-FR compound, sample G, are presented in Figure 7 for both nitrogen and air. Several differences are observed in the weight loss curves for these samples. 

In the transition metal polypyridyl complex group, tris(4,7-diphenylphen-antroline) ruthenium(II) (Ru(dpp)2+) is widely used as a probe for a PSP. The luminescence lifetime of Ru(dpp)2+ is long compared with the other ruthe-nium(II) polypyridyl complexes [17]. The absorption and emission maxima of Ru(dpp)2+ are 457 and 610 nm, respectively. The luminescence lifetimes under nitrogen- and air-saturated conditions are ca. 4.0 and 2.0 ps, respec-... 

Recycle designs of this type are limited to applications in which the components of the gas mixture, if sufficiently concentrated, can be separated from the gas by some other technique. With organic vapors, condensation is often possible adsorption, chemical scrubbing or absorption can also be used. The process shown in Figure 8.20 is used to separate VOCs from nitrogen and air or to separate propane, butane, pentane and higher hydrocarbons from natural gas (methane).

Flame-retardant epoxy resins with different silicon contents were prepared using silicon-containing epoxides or silicon-containing prepolymers. The thermal stability and flame-retardant properties of the produced epoxide systems were evaluated and related to the silicon content. The char yields under nitrogen and air atmospheres increased with increase in silicon content. The authors pointed out that the silicon-containing resin has improved flame retardancy over the silicon-free resin as evidenced by the LOI. LOI values increased from 24 for a standard commercial resin to 36 for silicon-containing resins.35...

Any hose used to transfer a liquid, including refrigerants, that has an agency-reportable quantity listed for a spill. It does not include normal utility hoses such as steam, water, nitrogen, and air. It does not include hoses that are supplied by a contract carrier. It does not include hydraulic hoses or other such hoses that are permanently mounted as a part of equipment that has its own inspection schedule. Fire hoses are not included, but do have testing procedures for that particular service. NOTE that good judgment should be exercised with the use of all hoses, and any obvious defects should be addressed. 

The former method is based on the principle that the sudden, adiabatic expansion of gases against an external pressure causes external work to be done by them, accompanied by a proportional diminution m their own internal energy manifested by a reduction in temperature.4 Although this method was introduced by Cailletet in 18775 and was successfully applied by him to the liquefaction of oxygen, nitrogen, and air, it was not until 1905 that it was successfully applied on a commercial scale, namely, in the Claude Process.6...

Figure 10 and Figure 11 also show that, as a result of the precuring in nitrogen and air, the final Tgs, as indicated by the high temperature b maxima, are different. The scan down result... 

Figure 17. Temperature scan of the quinoxaline resin after exposing to nitrogen and air at 380 C. After post curing in nitrogen, the glass transition temperature remained unchanged. However, after curing in air, there was no observable Tg.

Invert a bottle, and hold its mouth beneath the water in a pneur matic trough. Describe the result. What property of the gas does this result illustrate How would a rise of temperature affect the result Compare this property with that of oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, and air under similar conditions. Apply the litmus test to the liquid in the bottle, or to the liquid beneath the mouth of the bottle.
