Organic compounds viscosity

Revised material for Section 5 includes the material on surface tension, viscosity, dielectric constant, and dipole moment for organic compounds. In order to include more data at several temperatures, the material has been divided into two separate tables. Material on surface tension and viscosity constitute the first table with 715 entries included is the temperature range of the liquid phase. Material on dielectric constant and dipole... 

Flame retardants designated for nylon include halogenated organic compounds, phosphorous derivatives, and melamine cyanurate (160—163). Generally, flame retardants are difficult to spin in nylon because of the high loading required for effectiveness and their adverse effects on melt viscosity and fiber physical properties. 

For aqueous inks, the resins are water- or alkali-soluble or dispersible and the solvent is mosdy water containing sufficient alcohol (as much as 25%) to help solubilize the resin. To keep the alkah-soluble resin in solution, pH must be maintained at the correct level. Advances include the development of uv inks. These are high viscosity inks that require no drying but are photocurable by uv radiation. In these formulations, the solvent is replaced by monomers and photoinitiators that can be cross-linked by exposure to uv radiation. The advantage of this system is the complete elimination of volatile organic compounds (VOC) as components of the system and better halftone print quaUty. Aqueous and uv inks are becoming more popular as environmental pressure to reduce VOC increases. 

Silicate Grouts. Sodium silicate [1344-09-8] h.3.s been most commonly used in the United States. Its properties include specific gravity, 1.40 viscosity, 206 mPa-s(=cP) at 20°C Si02 Na20 = 3.22. Reaction of sodium silicate solutions with acids, polyvalent cations, such organic compounds as formamide, or their mixtures, can lead to gel formation at rates, which depend on the quantity of acid or other reagent(s) used. 

Pure, low temperature organic Hquid viscosities can be estimated by a group contribution method (7) and a method combining aspects of group contribution and coimectivity indexes theories (222). Caution is recommended in the use of these methods because the calculated absolute errors are as high as 100% for individual species in a 150-compound, 10-family test set (223). A new method based on a second-order fit of Benson-type groups with numerous steric correctors is suggested as an alternative. Lower errors are claimed for the same test set. 

Memanol water is an alcohol-base compound. It is less expensive than other organic compounds and, due to lower viscosity, has better heat transfer and pressure drop characteristics. It is used up to—35°C, Disadvantages are (I) considered more toxic than ethylene glycol and thus more suitable for outdoor applications (2) flammable and could be assumed to be a potential fire nazard.

Matrix interferences can be observed in a number of different forms. Components in the extract may interfere with excitation of electrons. Absorbance of light by unexpected metals or organic compounds, generally or specifically, would also cause interference. Another source of interference is the complex-ation of the analyte with extract components such that the metal of interest is protected from the heat source. Other interferences such as changes in the viscosity of the extract are also possible, although they are less common. Whenever soil samples are analyzed by atomic spectroscopic methods, it is essential to make sure that no interfering species are present in the soils. If they are, then steps must be taken to correct for these interferences. 

The first use of supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) as an extraction technique was reported by Zosel [379]. Since then there have been many reports on the use of SFE to extract PCBs, phenols, PAHs, and other organic compounds from particulate matter, soils and sediments [362, 363, 380-389]. The attraction of SFE as an extraction technique is directly related to the unique properties of the supercritical fluid [390]. Supercritical fluids, which have been used, have low viscosities, high diffusion coefficients, and low flammabilities, which are all clearly superior to the organic solvents normally used. Carbon dioxide (C02, [362,363]) is the most common supercritical fluid used for SFE, since it is inexpensive and has a low critical temperature (31.3 °C) and pressure (72.2 bar). Other less commonly used fluids include nitrous oxide (N20), ammonia, fluoro-form, methane, pentane, methanol, ethanol, sulfur hexafluoride (SF6), and dichlorofluoromethane [362, 363, 391]. Most of these fluids are clearly less attractive as solvents in terms of toxicity or as environmentally benign chemicals. Commercial SFE systems are available, but some workers have also made inexpensive modular systems [390]. 

At least one study has compared vemonia oil to partially epoxidized soybean and linseed oils, to investigate claims that vemonia oil is advantaged due to inherently lower viscosity. Authors conclude that partially epoxidized soybean and linseed oils have viscosity and reactivity that are similar to vemonia oil in formulated coating systems, and provide improvements to viscosity, content of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and curing time in alkyd coatings when compared to conventional formulations and formulations containing fully epoxidized soybean oil [116]. 

Kerosene is a mixture of aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, naphthenes (cycloalkanes) and other organic compounds. Systemic absorption from the lungs or stomach can cause central nervous system depression. The oil has a low surface tension and low viscosity so that small quantities can spread over a large surface area. This can affect the lungs, and... 

Laboratory studies indicate that aquathermolysis can be used to aid in the remediation of waste oils, chromium (Cr VI) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in contaminated soils and aquifers. Aquathermolysis is particularly useful in lowering the viscosity of oil and increasing its mobility to facilitate further treatment. Potential applications range from treating household and industrial refuse to destruction of chemical warfare agents.
