Some silica-containing additives such as glass and titanium dioxide lower the thermal stabkity of PVDE and should be used with caution. Processors should consult the resin producer about safe processing practice. 

One appHcation patented ia 1989 is the injection of sodium alumiaate into silica-containing formations for enhanced petroleum recovery (39). Additionally, the pharmaceutical industry uses sodium alumiaate as an alkaline source of aluminum for the production of certain antacids (40). 

Talc of metasedimentary origin is formed by hydrothermal alteration of a dolomitic host rock by a silica-containing fluid. This type of deposit is typical of Montana and AustraUa. It is usually quite pure with talc content of 90 to 98% and often very white as well. Dolomite [17069-72-6], CaMg(C02)2, is the most common accessory mineral. The fourth type is of metamorphic origin, where a siUcaceous dolostone is first converted to tremolite [14567-73-8] or actinohte [13768-00-8] and then partially converted to talc. The Balmat, New York, and Death Valley, California, deposits are of this type. Tremolite, dolomite, and serpentine are common accessory minerals. This type of talc deposit has a variable talc content (30—80%), but is usually white and often commercially exploited because of the properties of its accessory minerals rather than the talc. 

Pure silica contains no metal ions and every oxygen becomes a bridge between two silicon atoms giving a three-dimensional network. The high-temperature form, shown in Fig. 16.3(c), is cubic the tetrahedra are stacked in the same way as the carbon atoms in the diamond-cubic structure. At room temperature the stable crystalline form of silica is more complicated but, as before, it is a three-dimensional network in which all the oxygens bridge silicons. 

On the other hand, if the stationary phase consists of bonded silica containing hydrocarbon chains, then the stationary phase interactions with the solute would be... 

Serpentine (3Mg02Si02 2H20) is a common silica-containing constituent of boiler waterside deposits. It typically appears as a flocculated sludge it has a monoclinic crystal structure.

Alumina is not widely used in modem HPLC [48]. Porous gamma alumina is prepared by dehydration and thermal treatment of crystalline bayerite [8,49]. It is available in several types with pore diameters from 6-lS nm, surface areas 70-250 m /g and pore volumes 0.2-0.3 ml/g. After conditioning with acid or base its apparent surface pH can be adjusted between pH 3-9. The alumina surface is more heterogeneous than silica containing both hydroxyl... 

Fumed silica is prepared by burning volatile silicon compounds such as silicon tetrachloride. This type of silica contains less than 2% combined water and generally no free water. It reacts readily with hydroxyl groups. The particle size is in the region 5-10 nm. Fumed silicas are not generally used in conventional rubber compounding but find application with silicone rubber. The recognised surface area values for best reinforcement of silicone rubber by an amorphous silica lies between 150-400 m2/g. 

Issues regarding the influence of duration or intensity of exposure in relation to effect on autoimmune disease processes are questions that have not been established, with some inconsistencies seen in the epidemiologic studies (Table 25.2). Dose or intensity of silica exposure affects the clearance from the lung and silica-containing macrophages can be translocated to pulmonary lymph nodes. Increased production of immunoglobulins and of lymphocyte-derived interferon-gamma is seen at these sites.49... 

Undoubtedly, the best method for the production of pure anhydrous lanthanide trihalides involves direct reaction of the elements. However, suitable reaction vessels, of molybdenum, tungsten, or tantalum, have to be employed silica containers result in oxohalides (27). Trichlorides have been produced by reacting metal with chlorine (28), methyl chloride (28), or hydrogen chloride (28-31). Of the tribromides, only that of scandium has been prepared by direct reaction with bromine (32). The triiodides have been prepared by reacting the metal with iodine (27, 29, 31, 33-41) or with ammonium iodide (42).
