INDEX phosphates

Less nitrogen is needed in wetter areas, although exactly how much is used wiU depend on the soil nitrogen supply status. More phosphate may be needed on heavier soils, but this will a in depend on the soil phosphate index if the fertiliser is placed 5-10 cm below the seed, the phosphate can be reduced. Potash is important, but savings can be made by using organic manures. As with fodder... 

In general, the first step in virtual screening is the filtering by the application of Lipinski s Rule of Five [20]. Lipinski s work was based on the results of profiling the calculated physical property data in a set of 2245 compounds chosen from the World Drug Index. Polymers, peptides, quaternary ammonium, and phosphates were removed from this data set. Statistical analysis of this data set showed that approximately 90% of the remaining compounds had ... 

Lubricants, Fuels, and Petroleum. The adipate and azelate diesters of through alcohols, as weU as those of tridecyl alcohol, are used as synthetic lubricants, hydrauHc fluids, and brake fluids. Phosphate esters are utilized as industrial and aviation functional fluids and to a smaH extent as additives in other lubricants. A number of alcohols, particularly the Cg materials, are employed to produce zinc dialkyldithiophosphates as lubricant antiwear additives. A smaH amount is used to make viscosity index improvers for lubricating oils. 2-Ethylhexyl nitrate [24247-96-7] serves as a cetane improver for diesel fuels and hexanol is used as an additive to fuel oil or other fuels (57). Various enhanced oil recovery processes utilize formulations containing hexanol or heptanol to displace oil from underground reservoirs (58) the alcohols and derivatives are also used as defoamers in oil production.

The brominated phosphate is an efficient flame retardant for polycarbonate resin. UL-94 ratings of V-0 with oxygen index values of greater than 40 are obtained. Polycarbonate resin containing brominated phosphate processes with greater ease than resin containing brominated polycarbonate as measured by injection molding spiral flow measurements. The heat distortion temperature is reduced... 

Mineral filled PBT polyester resin containing 12% brominated phosphate and 4% antimony oxide yields a V-0 product with a 29.7 oxygen index. A product containing 16% brominated phosphate and... 

V-0 products with high oxygen index values are obtainable using brominated phosphate alone. PET fibers can be readily spun and the resulting fiber is white. 

A 50/50 blend of polycarbonate resin and PBT polyester containing 13.5% brominated phosphate and no antimony oxide results in a product with a V-0 rating and an oxygen index of 33. An equivalent product containing brominated polycarbonate has a low oxygen index and burns in the UL-94 test (Table VIII). 

Brominated phosphate is a very efficient flame retardant as measured by oxygen index and UL-94 (Table IX and Figure 4). The melt index of the resin does not change with the addition of brominated polycarbonate, doubles with brominated polystyrene, and doubles again with brominated phosphate (Table IX). 

Brominated phosphate was also evaluated in a commercial glass filled polycarbonate/PET polyester alloy. A concentration of 10% gives a V-0 rating with an oxygen index value of about 35 (Table X). 

The flame retardant performance of various flame retardant additives in a commercial polycarbonate/ABS alloy were compared. No antimony oxide was required. The data shows brominated phosphate to be a highly efficient flame retardant in this alloy (Table XI). An alloy composition containing 14% brominated phosphate and no antimony oxide gives a V-0 rating (Table XII). The melt index of this alloy containing 12% brominated polystyrene was 7.6 g/10 min. (at 250°C) the equivalent resin containing brominated phosphate had a melt index of 13.3 g/10 min. 

Since properties of both phosphate and arsenate are very similar each other, the adsorption of phosphate was examined prior to the adsorption of arsenic species. Here, the feeding solution in the adsorption operation was 1 mM phosphate solution of pH3. Table 1 summarizes detailed experimental conditions and column performances during repeated adsorption-elution-regeneration cycles. Since supplied volumes of the feed are not constant (101 - 193 BV), it is not easy to judge the efficiency of the adsorption from total uptake of phosphate. Thus, removal of phosphate until 100 BV is listed at the last column of Table 1 as an index of the column performances. 

The estimation of the crystallinity index (Cl) of bone is based on one of the four vibrational modes associated with the apatite phosphate group. In amorphous calcium phosphate, the absorption band at 550-600 cm-1 appears as a single broad peak, whilst in hydroxyapatite it is split into bands of unequal intensity by the apatite crystal field (Sillen and Parkington 1996). Based on the splitting factor introduced by Termine and Posner (1966), Weiner and Bar-Yosef (1990) proposed the use of a crystallinity index to measure the crystallinity of bone mineral. As illustrated in Fig. 4.7, the Cl is estimated by drawing a base line from 750 to 495 cm 1 and measuring the heights of the absorption peaks at 603 cm-1 (measurement a), 565 cm 1 (measurement b) and the distance from the base line to the lowest point between the two peaks (c). Cl is calculated from the formula ...
