Seals silver

Normally manufactures have their own standards. The terms gold seal, silver seal, red seal, green seal and white seal are still common in Europe. 

Techniques of Hydrothermal Synthesis. In every run, the materials were contained in small sealed silver tubes to prevent selective leaching. A small amount of distilled water was added before the tube was sealed. The type of pressure vessel used was the test tube (6).

Principle. A known weight of the substance is heated with fuming nitric acid and silver nitrate in a sealed tube. The organic material is thus oxidised to carbon dioxide and water, whilst the halogen is converted quantitatively into the corresponding silver halide. The latter js subsequently washed out of the tube, filtered and weighed. 

Place in the tube sufficient organic compound to give subsequently about 0-3 g. of the silver halide, and weigh again. Now allow the small tube to slide carefully down the inclined Carius tube until it finally adopts the position shown in D (Fig. 72). If the compound readily loses halogen in the presence of nitric fumes, the Carius tube should first be rotated in an oblique position to wet the tube for about 10 cm. from the bottom the small tube, if cautiously inserted into the Carius tube, will now come to rest when it first reaches the wet portion of the tube and will thus be held above the main bulk of the acid until the tube is sealed. 

Principle. This is essentially a small-scale modification of the macro piethod described on p. 416, the substance being completely oxidised in a sealed tube with fuming nitric acid in the presence of silver nitrate, the halogen being thus converted into silver halide. The collection and weighing of the silver halide require special techniques on the semi-micro scale. 

Filling and sealing the Carius tube. Introduce 100-150 mg. of powdered silver nitrate into the Carius tube, either through a spill of filter -paper rolled and inserted as described on p.418, or through a small funnel, so that the powder falls freely to the bottom of the tube and does not touch or adhere to the walls. 

AgF2 is prepared by the action of elemental fluorine on AgF or AgCl at 200°C. Both processes result in quantitative yields. Silver difluoride should be stored in Teflon, passivated metal containers, or in sealed quartz tubes. 

In 1986 Britannia Refined Metals (Northfleet, U.K.) introduced technology for the treatment of Parkes cmst, a triple alloy of Ag, Zn, Pb, which by 1992 had been adopted by seven lead refineries (22). The technology consists of a three-stage process in which the silver-rich cmst is first Hquated to reduce its lead content, then placed in a sealed furnace where the 2inc is removed by vacuum distillation and, finally, the silver—lead metal is treated in a bottom blown oxygen cupel (BBOC) to produce a Htharge slag and dorn metal.

The positive plates are siatered silver on a silver grid and the negative plates are fabricated from a mixture of cadmium oxide powder, silver powder, and a binder pressed onto a silver grid. The main separator is four or five layers of cellophane with one or two layers of woven nylon on the positive plate. The electrolyte is aqeous KOH, 50 wt %. In the aerospace appHcations, the plastic cases were encapsulated in epoxy resins. Most usehil cell sizes have ranged from 3 to 15 A-h, but small (0.1 A-h) and large (300 A-h) sizes have been evaluated. Energy densities of sealed batteries are 26-31 W-h/kg. 

When heated with pyrocatechol [720-80-9] copper powder, and alcohoHc sodium hydroxide, carbon tetrachloride gives a blue color that changes to red on addition of hydrochloric acid. This color reaction is not produced by chloroform. Quantitative analysis of carbon tetrachloride may be done by first decomposing the sample free of organic and inorganic chlorides, heating in a sealed tube with alcohoHc potash, and subsequently determining the potassium chloride formed as the silver haHde. The Zeiss interference refractometer has been used to determine the concentration of carbon tetrachloride vapor in air (36). 

Polaroid introduced Polavision, a Super-8-mm instant motion picture system, in 1977 (97). Polachrome CS 35-mm sHde film followed in 1982 (98), and a high contrast version, Polachrome HCP, appeared in 1987. Each of the films comprises a very fine additive color screen and an integral silver image transfer film. The Polavision system, which included a movie camera and a player that processed the exposed film and projected the movie, is no longer on the market. The Polavision film was provided in a sealed cassette, and the film was exposed, processed, viewed, and rewound for further viewing without leaving the cassette (97).
