The most obvious differences between solid and liquid acids are in their physical properties. Solids can be heated, which enhances the rate of proton transfer reactions which are slow at room temperature, can be used in solid-liquid and solid-gas reactions and can readily be separated from reactants and products. One of their limitations, however, is that the catalyst can become covered in strongly adsorbed by-product, or at high temperatures by carbonaceous residue, coke , resulting in deactivation. In this case, the utility of the catalyst may ultimately be determined by how readily it can be regenerated.

Facial prostheses may fail due to the limitations in the properties of existing materials, especially the biocompatibility. Biocompatibility of PDMS elastomers (LIM 6050, MDX 4-4210, Silastic 732) was tested in subcutaneous tissue of rats [85]. A histomorphometric evaluation was conducted to analyze the biocompatibihty of the implants. Mesenchymal cells, eosinophils, and foreign-body giant cells were counted. Initially, all implanted materials exhibited an acceptable tissue inflammatory response, with tissue reactions varying from light to moderate. Afterward, a fibrous capsule around the sihcone was observed. In conclusion, the tested silicones were found biocompatible and suitable to use for implantation in both medical and dental areas. Their prosthetic indication is conditioned to their physical properties. Solid sihcone is easier to adapt and does not suffer apparent modifications inside the tissues [85]. 

The immobility of the surface atoms of a refractory solid has the consequence that the surface energy and other physical properties depend greatly on the immediate history of the material. A clean cleavage surface of a crystal will have a different (and probably lower) surface energy than a ground, abraded, heat-treated or polished surface of the same material.

Of course, condensed phases also exliibit interesting physical properties such as electronic, magnetic, and mechanical phenomena that are not observed in the gas or liquid phase. Conductivity issues are generally not studied in isolated molecular species, but are actively examined in solids. Recent work in solids has focused on dramatic conductivity changes in superconducting solids. Superconducting solids have resistivities that are identically zero below some transition temperature [1, 9, 10]. These systems caimot be characterized by interactions over a few atomic species. Rather, the phenomenon involves a collective mode characterized by a phase representative of the entire solid. 

Schemes for classifying surfactants are based upon physical properties or upon functionality. Charge is tire most prevalent physical property used in classifying surfactants. Surfactants are charged or uncharged, ionic or nonionic. Charged surfactants are furtlier classified as to whetlier tire amphipatliic portion is anionic, cationic or zwitterionic. Anotlier physical classification scheme is based upon overall size and molecular weight. Copolymeric nonionic surfactants may reach sizes corresponding to 10 000-20 000 Daltons. Physical state is anotlier important physical property, as surfactants may be obtained as crystalline solids, amoriDhous pastes or liquids under standard conditions. The number of tailgroups in a surfactant has recently become an important parameter. Many surfactants have eitlier one or two hydrocarbon tailgroups, and recent advances in surfactant science include even more complex assemblies [7, 8 and 9].

Glass is the name given to any amorphous solid produced when a liquid solidifies. Glasses are non-crystalline and isotropic, i.e. their physical properties are independent of the direction in which they are measured. When a glass is heated, it does not melt at a fixed temperature but gradually softens until a liquid is obtained. 

Physical properties. All solid except m -cresol, CH3CJH4OH, which is a liquid. All colourless when pure, but frequently slightly coloured due to atmospheric oxidation. All have in varying degrees a characteristic odour of carbolic acid. Phenol, the cresols and resorcinol have a caustic action on the skin. 

Physical properties. All colourless. Formaldehyde, HCHO, is a gas, and only its aqueous solution, which has a characteristic pungent odour, is considered metaformaldehyde or trioxymethylene , (CH20)3, is a solid polymer, insoluble in water and ethanol. 

Physical properties. All are colourless crystalline solids except formic acid, acetic acid (m.p. 18 when glacial) and lactic acid (m.p. 18°, usually a syrup). Formic acid (b.p. loo ") and acetic acid (b.p. 118 ) are the only members which are readily volatile lactic acid can be distilled only under reduced pressure. Formic and acetic acids have characteristic pungent odours cinnamic acid has a faint, pleasant and characteristic odour. 

Physical Properties. All colourless. Most are liquids, but a few are solids at room temperature. (See Table on p. 546.) The following... 

Physical Properties. All yellow or orange-yellow solids except... 

Physical Properties All colourless odourless crystalline solids. Acetanilide,CH3CONHCflH5,andbenzanilide,C,H6CONHCeH6 are both sparingly soluble in cold water, but acetanilide has the greater solubility in hot water. 

Physical Properties. Glycine is a colourless crystalline solid soluble in water. Owing to the almost equal opposing effects of the amino and the carboxylic groups. its aqueous solution is almost neutral (actually, slightly acidic to phenolphthalein) and glycine is therefore known as a neutral ampholyte. f It exhibits both acidic and basic properties. 

Physical Properties, Colourless solid when pure, usually pale brown. Sparingly soluble in cold water, soluble in hot water soluble also in cold mineral acids and caustic alkalis. Dissolves readily in cold alcohol, and solution possesses a faint blue fluorescence. 

Physical Properties. Colourless crystalline solid, soluble in boiling water, very sparingly soluble in cold water crystallises 2H2O. The strongly acidic — SO3H group suppresses the normal basic properties of the — NHj group the acid therefore dissolves readily in alkalis, but not in dilute mineral acids. 

Physical Properties. Nitrobenzene, C HjNOj pale yellow liquid, insoluble in and heavier than water, characteristic odour of bitter almonds, (similar to that of benzaldehyde and benzonitrile). /> Nitro toluene, C,H4(CH3)N02, usually pale yellow solid, insoluble in water, m-Dinitrobenzene, C8H4(N02)g, colourless solid when pure, but often pale yellow insoluble in water. 

Physical Properties. Both solids, freely soluble in hot water, sparingly in cold water. o-Nitrophcnol, bright yellow, volatile in steam, odour resembling both that of phenol and of nitrobenzene />-m trophenol, colourless when pure, non-volatile in steam, odourless. 

Physical Properties. All heavier than, and insoluble in water. All liquids, except iodoform, CHI3, which is a yellow crystalline solid with a characteristic odour. The remainder are colourless liquids when pure ethyl iodide, CjHjI, and iodobenzene, CjHgl, are, however, usually yellow or even brown in colour. Methyl iodide, CH3I, ethyl bromide, CgH Br, ethyl iodide, chloroform, CHCI3, and carbon tetrachloride, CCI4, have sweetish odours, that of chloroform being particularly characteristic. 

Physical Properties. Styrene, CgH CH = CHj, is a pleasant smelling liquid, lighter than and insoluble in water, b.p. 146°. Stilbene, CjHjCH = CHCqHj, is a colourless solid, m.p. 125°, b.p. 306°, insoluble in water. 

Nitriles and simple amides differ in physical properties the former are liquids or low-melting Solids, whilst the latter are generally solids. If the amide is a solid and insoluble in water, it may be readily prepared from the nitrile by dissolving in concentrated sulphuric acid and pouring the solution into water ...
