Nonreducing

FIOR Process. In the FIOR process, shown in Figure 5, sized iron ore fines (0.04—12 mm) are dried in a gas-fired rotary dryer. A skip hoist dehvers the dry fines to lock hoppers for pressurizing. The fines pass through four fluidized-bed reactors in series. Reactor 1 preheats the ore to 760°C in a nonreducing atmosphere. Reactors 2, 3, and 4 reduce the ore at 690—780°C. At higher (ca 810°C) temperatures there is a tendency for the beds to defluidize as a result of sticking or hogging of the reduced material. 

PuUulan [9057-02-7] first described in detail in 1959, is a water-soluble extracellular a-D-glucan elaborated by the fungus yiureobasidiumpullulans (formerly Eullulariapullulans) (285). It is a linear polymer of maltotriose units linked from the reducing end of one trisaccharidic unit to the nonreducing end of the next trisaccharidic unit by a(l — 6) linkages (286) ... 

Amylase occurs in many plants, such as barley, wheat, rye, soy beans, and potatoes, where it is generally accompanied by some a-amylase. [ -Amylase initiates hydrolysis at the nonreducing end of an amylose or amylopectin chain, and removes maltose units successively until the reducing end of the molecule is encountered in amylose or a branch is met in amylopectin. ( -Amylase is used commercially in the preparation of maltose symps. After P-amylase hydrolysis of amylopectin there remains a P-amylase limit dextrin. ( -Amylase has been used as a probe of the fine stmcture of amylopectin (43-46). 

Some physical properties of the four most common cyclodexttins are Hsted in Table 1 (3). Other important properties are (/) cyclodexttins are nonreducing (2) glucose is the only product of acid hydrolysis (J) molecular weights are always integral numbers of 162.1, the value for glucose (4) cyclodexttins are nontoxic and (5) they do not appreciably absorb ultraviolet (uv) or visible light. 

Xanthan. Xanthan, known commercially as xanthan gum [11138-66-2], has a main chain of (1 — 4)-linked P-D-glucopyranosyl units therefore, the chemical stmeture of the main chain is identical to the stmeture of cellulose [9004-34-6]. However, in xanthan, every other P-D-glucopyranosyl unit in the main chain is substituted on 0-3 with a trisaccharide unit. The trisaccharide side chain consists of (reading from the terminal, nonreducing end in towards the main chain) a -D-mannopyranosyl unit linked (1 — 4) to a P-D-glucopyranosyluronic acid unit linked (1 — 2) to a... 

Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis is one of the most commonly used electrophoretic methods. AnalyMcal uses of this technique center around protein characterization, for example, purity, size, or molecular weight, and composition of a protein. Polyacrylamide gels can be used in both reduced and nonreduced systems as weU as in combination with discontinuous and ief systems (39). 

This equation is useful for gases above the critical point. Only reduced pressure, P, and reduced temperature, T, are needed. In the form represented by equation 53, iteration quickly gives accurate values for the compressibiUty factor, Z. However, this two-parameter equation only gives accurate values for simple and nonpolar fluids. Unless the Redhch-Kwong equation (eq. 53) is expHcifly solved for pressure in nonreduced variables, it does not give accurate hquid volumes. 

Amylases are exoen2ymes that attack amylose chains and result in the successive removal of maltose units from the nonreducing end. In the case of amylopectin, the cleaving stops two to three glucose units from the a-1,6-branching points. ( -Amylase [9000-91-3] is used for the production of maltose symps and for adjunct processing in breweries. The most important commercial products are made from barley or soybeans. 

In particular, emphasis will be placed on the use of chemisorption to measure the metal dispersion, metal area, or particle size of catalytically active metals supported on nonreducible oxides such as the refractory oxides, silica, alumina, silica-alumina, and zeolites. In contrast to physical adsorption, there are no complete books devoted to this aspect of catalyst characterization however, there is a chapter in Anderson that discusses the subject. 

Trehalose is a nonreducing disaccharide that is hydrolyzed by aqueous acid to yield 2 equivalents of D-glucose. Methylation followed by hydrolysis yields 2 equivalents of 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-methylglucose. How many structures are possible for trehalose ... 

For comparison, Battles et al. (15) determined the partial heats of sublimation of Pu02(g) and Pu0(g) above PuOi.33 over the temperature range 1937 to 2342 K by means of mass spectrometric measurements with Iridium effusion cells. The absence of Iridium oxides or Iridium species In the vapor phase Indicated that Iridium was nonreducing toward plutonia. The partial heats of sublimation calculated from the slopes of the temperature dependency data yielded values of 127.1 1.2 and 138.8 1.6 kcal/mol for Pu0(g) and Pu02(g) ...
