The humic content of soils varies from 0 to almost 10%. In surface waters, the humic content, expressed as dissolved organic carbon (DOC), varies from 0.1 to 50 ppm in dark-water swamps. In ocean waters, the DOC varies from 0.5 to 1.2 ppm at the surface, and the DOC in samples from deep groundwaters varies from 0.1 to 10 ppm (7). In addition, about 10% of the DOC in surface waters is found in suspended matter, either as organic or organically coated inorganic particulates. 

Ability to tolerate higher temperatures than organic coatings (inorganic ZRPs typically tolerate 700° to 750°F)... 

Adsorption of Metal Ions and Ligands. The sohd—solution interface is of greatest importance in regulating the concentration of aquatic solutes and pollutants. Suspended inorganic and organic particles and biomass, sediments, soils, and minerals, eg, in aquifers and infiltration systems, act as adsorbents. The reactions occurring at interfaces can be described with the help of surface-chemical theories (surface complex formation) (25). The adsorption of polar substances, eg, metal cations, M, anions. A, and weak acids, HA, on hydrous oxide, clay, or organically coated surfaces may be described in terms of surface-coordination reactions ... 

Sulfur compounds, whether organic or inorganic in nature, cause sulfidation in susceptible materials. The sulfide film, which forms on the surface of much con-stmction materials at low temperatures, becomes friable and melts at higher temperatures. The presence of molten sulfides (especially nickel sulfide) on a metal surface promotes the rapid conversion to metal sulfides at temperatures where these sulfides are thermodynamically stable. High-alloy materials such as 25% Cr, 20% Ni alloys are widely used, but these represent a compromise between sulfidation resistance and mechanical properties. Aluminum and similar diffusion coatings can be of use. 

Organic and inorganic paint systems are widely used to protect and enhance appearance because they are often economic and always flexible in use. In many industries paint is chosen when other coating processes are technically impossible or uneconomic. Because it is so often used upon subjects which are difficult to coat, sensible design detailing becomes even more important. 

The vast increase in the application of membranes has expanded our knowledge of fabrication of various types of membrane, such as organic and inorganic membranes. The inorganic membrane is frequently called a ceramic membrane. To fulfil the need of the market, ceramic membranes represent a distinct class of inorganic membrane. There are a few important parameters involved in ceramic membrane materials, in terms of porous structure, chemical composition and shape of the filter in use. In this research, zirconia-coated y-alumina membranes have been developed using the sol-gel technique. 

Today the successful application of TOF-SIMS in chemistry and material sciences covers all kinds of organic and inorganic materials—functionalized surfaces as well as mono-molecular or multilayer coatings with lateral structures down to the 50 nm range. TOF-SIMS is here applied in the... 

The Japanese scientists tested the fiber optic carbon dioxide sensor86, prepared by dip-coating method - the sol-gel film containing indicator dye, thymol blue, was deposited on unclad fiber. The sensitive film had both organic and inorganic parts with good permeability. The differences between attenuation in N2 gas and in CO2/N2 mixture gas increased with the CO2... 

The effect that hydrophobic organic substances can become sorbed to organic coatings can be used to make sorbents by coating inorganic colloids such as ferri-hydrite with surfactants. Such surfactant-coated surfaces contain films of hemicelles (see 4.5) which are able to remove hydrophobic solutes, such as toluene or chloro-hydrocarbons, from solution (Holsen, et al., 1991). 

As in the water column, the question arises as to why any BSi is preserved after its burial in the sediments. Evidently some kinetic inhibition exists. Various hypotheses for the cause of this inhibition include (1) the buildup of organic or inorganic coatings on... 

Organic and inorganic coatings containing metalllo zino dust are extensively and successfully used for anticorrosion steel protection in various agresslve media such as sea water, industrial and sea atmosphere They...
