The whole idea of strong electrostatic adsorption (SEA), then, is to control the pH of the excess liquid so as to arrive at the optimal pH where metal complex-surface interaction is strongest. Calculations and experimental vah-dation such as seen in Figures 3.1b and 3.2 can be used to anticipate the initial pH that gives the optimal final pH. The pH buffering effect has been reviewed in more detail [15] and will be discussed further in the last section of this chapter. 

Bioactive phases in the polymer composite can also alter the degradation behavior of the polymer materials, by allowing rapid exchange of protons in water for alkali in the glass in ceramics. This behavior provides the pH-buffering effect at the polymer surface transforming the acidic polymer degradation [425]. 

Chromates have been the most widely used passivating inhibitors in coatings, although toxicity and carcinogenicity potential have prompted use of molybdates (zinc and calcium zinc) and zinc phosphate in their place in certain cases. Alkaline extenders, such as wollastonite, are used as synergists with passivators in some applications, apparently providing a beneficial pH buffering effect. 

A fourth alkalinity control additive is magnesium oxide [1309A8A], which is used in clay-free polymer-base fluids (47). Magnesium oxide provides an alkaline environment and, as it is only slightly soluble, also has a buffering effect. It enhances the thermal stabHity of polymer solutions by preventing a pH decrease to neutral or slightly acidic conditions at elevated temperatures. It is mainly appHed in completion or workover operations where clay-free acid-soluble fluids are desired. 

In Cosmetics. Amino acids and their derivatives occur in skin protein, and they exhibit a controlling or buffering effect of pH variation in skin and a bactericidal effect (216). Serine is one component of skin care cream or lotion. Ai-Acylglutamic acid triethanolamine monosalt is used for shampoo. Glucose glutamate is a moisturizing compound for hair and skin (234). 

Consequently, biochemists conducting in vitro experiments were limited in their choice of buffers effective at or near physiological pH. In 1966, N.E. Good devised a set of synthetic buffers to remedy this problem, and over the years the list has expanded so that a good selection is available (Figure 2.18). 

To slow down and control the rate of reaction, a moderator is also required. Typically, the moderator is boric acid, graphite, or heavy water (D20) and is present in the high-purity water, which also serves as a primary coolant for the fuel and the reactor vessel. The tremendous heat generated by nuclear fission is transferred to this closed-loop coolant, which is contained within a reactor primary-coolant circulation system. The high-purity water coolant also contains a suitable pH buffer such as lithium hydroxide, which has the additional effect of limiting the corrosion of fuel-cladding and other components.

Antonenko et al. [540] considered pH gradients forming in the UWL under bulk solution iso-pH conditions. They elegantly expanded on the buffer effect model and made it more general by considering multicomponent buffer mixtures. Direct measurements of the pH gradients (using wire-coated micro-pH electrodes) near the membrane-water interface were described. 

You might be wondering why the bicarbonate buffer can buffer effectively at pH 7.4 when its pKa is 6.1. The answer is that it doesn t buffer all that well. What makes it unique and the major buffer system of the blood is that C02, being a gas, can be exhaled by the lungs. Exhaling C02 is equivalent to exhaling protons. 

We begin by considering the well-known pH buffer provided by the aqueous carbonate system and its effects on the ease with which a fluid can be acidified. We start with an alkaline NaCl solution containing a small amount of carbonate, and add 300 mmol of hydrochloric acid to it. The procedure in REACT is...
