Silicate surface controlled

As was mentioned in the introduction to this chapter "diffusion-controlled dissolution" may occur because a thin layer either in the liquid film surrounding the mineral or on the surface of the solid phase (that is depleted in certain cations) limits transport as a consequence of this, the dissolution reaction becomes incongruent (i.e., the constituents released are characterized by stoichiometric relations different from those of the mineral. The objective of this section is to illustrate briefly, that even if the dissolution reaction of a mineral is initially incongruent, it is often a surface reaction which will eventually control the overall dissolution rate of this mineral. This has been shown by Chou and Wollast (1984). On the basis of these arguments we may conclude that in natural environments, the steady-state surface-controlled dissolution step is the main process controlling the weathering of most oxides and silicates. [Pg.187]

The H+ and NH forms of homoionic montmorillonite promote the hydrolysis of chloro-s-triazines to the hydroxy analogs (hydroxy-s-triazines) (73). Apparently, the surface acidity of these clays was extremely high, since no degradation was observed in control experiments conducted at pH 3.5 in homogeneous aqueous solution. Russell et al. (73) suggested that the hydroxy-s-triazine products were stabilized in the protonated form at the silicate surface. The IR spectra of these surface complexes agreed with the spectra obtained in 6N HC1, and it was inferred that the pH at the clay surface was 3 to 4 units lower than that measured in suspension. [Pg.476]

Morrall2 used a HPLC system with two columns. The first column was loaded with the controlled pore glass (CPG) to be modified. The second column was used for separation of the reaction effluents. This column was coupled to a refractive index detector, allowing for quantitative detection of the effluents. The reaction was initiated by injecting an APTS/toluene mixture and stopped by injection of pure toluene. With this so-called stop-flow mechanism reaction times down to 18 seconds could be used. From these analyses it became evident that upon mixing of the aminosilane with the silica, a very rapid physisorption occurs. The initial adsorption of the APTS (from toluene solution on dried CPG) occurred before the 18 second minimum time delay of the stop-flow apparatus. For non-aminated silanes the adsorption proved to be much slower. This study also revealed the pivotal role of surface water in the modification of siliceous surfaces with alkoxysilanes, as discussed in the previous chapter. [Pg.210]

III. The dissolution rate is controlled by diffusion through a continuously growing precipitate layer that forms on the silicate surface. Such a protective barrier has been postulated to consist of an amorphous alumino-silica phase (14) or a mono- or multi-phase crystalline alumino-silicate assemblage (15). [Pg.450]

Ionic form of transport. This is possible only in very acid solutions (pH < 3), the long existence of which is not likely at the Earth s surface due to interaction with rocks, due to dilution by surface waters, and due to the buffer effect of carbonate and silicate equilibria controlling the pH in the ocean. [Pg.175]

According to the USP/NF [2], the pH of magnesium silicate (10% wt/wt aqueous suspension) is 7.0-10.8. The pH of magnesium silicate is controlled by the degree to which magnesium is released from the surface when it comes in contact with water. The basicity of magnesium silicate is mainly attributed to the magnesium oxide present. [Pg.248]

In Eq. [1], protons are shown to be important in determining the equilibrium of the hydrolysis of a silicate mineral. Protons are important factors in determining dissolution rates of silicates, oxides, hydroxides, and hydrous oxides. Because of the relatively high Arrhenius activation energies of surface-controlled reactions, temperature is an especially important factor in determining dissolution rates. Anions that bind to mineral surfaces can... [Pg.152]

The rate-controlling step for dissolution of an oxide or primary silicate mineral generally involves a surface reaction. For surface-controlled dissolution, the rate-controlling step is either the detachment of silica or a metal ion from the surface or the attack of the surface to form precursor sites for detachment. Surface detachment controlled kinetics can be modelled using the surface complexation rate model (Wieland et al., 1988) that models rates as a function of the surface concentration of surface complexation sites that are precursors for dissolution. In this model, the formation of precursor sites is rapid compared to the rate of detachment and the concentration of sites can be described by surface complexation theory (Sposito, 1983). [Pg.182]

The objectives of this chapter are (1) to illustrate that the surface structure is important in characterizing surface reactivity and that kinetic mechanisms depend on the coordinative environment of the surface groups, (2) to derive a general rate law for the surface-controlled dissolution of oxide and silicate minerals and illustrate that such rate laws are conveniently written in terms of surface species, and (3) to illustrate a few geochemical implications of the kinetics nf oxide dissolution. [Pg.367]

Coarse calcium carbonate with a broad particle size distribution, based on chalk, limestone or marble, or dolomite with an average particle size of approximately 15 pm, is the main filler used in PVC floor tiles. Price is the main specification but control of colour and of levels of coarse particles is needed. It is used as an extender at 200-450 phr. To give extra dimensional stability, reduced water pick-up, and green or hot strength during calendering and extrusion of the carpet high aspect ratio platy particles are used with the calcium carbonate. Stabilisation systems have to be modified to allow for the extra reactivity of the silicate surface. [Pg.401]

Abstract The adsorption of ionic surfactants on different soil components such as silica, clay minerals, and humic acids was studied. The adsorption processes were controlled by flow microcalorimetry to determine the molar adsorption enthalpies of surfactant accumulation on clay and silicate surfaces. The evaluation of adsorption results for cationic surfactants has shown different mechanisms for solids having permanent (kaolinite, illite, montmorillonite) and pH-dependent surface charges (silica gels and powders). The adsorption mechanism for surfactants on silica surfaces with pH-dependent charges has been explained in terms of the development of charges on the surfaces and their interaction with... [Pg.81]

Surface reactivity (e.g., acid-base properties, ion-exchange behavior, and ability to selectively complex metal cations) may be modified by appropriate choice of precursor metals, by derivitization with organic ligands, or by reactions of the surface with metal halides, metal alkyls, etc. (See Chapter 10.) Combining microstructure control (demonstrated for silicates) with control of surface reactivity should lead to many appiications for porous films in the areas of sensors and catalysis. [Pg.895]

There appears to be an inverse relationship between the stability of the silica polymorphs and their solubility in water thus, opal is more soluble than quartz (BeleVtsev et al. [I960] Millot [I960]), and since many of the reactions of silica and silicates in soils are surface controlled, particle size must be considered (Jackson et al. [1949]). Because of the dependence of solubility on particle size, and hence the difficulty of determining the absolute solubility of the silica polymorphs, comparison cannot be made without qualification. Values of 120 to 140 ppm at 25°C have been quoted for the solubility of noncrystalline silica in water by Alexander et al. [1954], who also observed that the solubility rises sharply above pH 9, varies linearly with temperature, and is influenced by particle size and the number of internal OH groups. The solubility of cristobalite (prepared by heating 100 to 140 mesh quartz grains... [Pg.412]

Scale formation Controlled scale deposition by the Langelier approach or by the proper use of polyphosphates or silicates is a useful method of corrosion control, but uncontrolled scale deposition is a disadvantage as it will screen the metal surfaces from contact with the inhibitor, lead to loss of inhibitor by its incorporation into the scale and also reduce heat transfer in cooling systems. Apart from scale formation arising from constituents naturally present in waters, scaling can also occur by reaction of inhibitors with these constituents. Notable examples are the deposition of excess amounts of phosphates and silicates by reaction with calcium ions. The problem can be largely overcome by suitable pH control and also by the additional use of scale-controlling chemicals. [Pg.785]
