Many studies on the direct reaction of methyl chloride with silicon-copper contact mass and other metal promoters added to the silicon-copper contact mass have focused on the reaction mechanisms.7,8 The reaction rate and the selectivity for dimethyldichlorosilane in this direct synthesis are influenced by metal additives, known as promoters, in low concentration. Aluminum, antimony, arsenic, bismuth, mercury, phosphorus, phosphine compounds34 and their metal complexes,35,36 Zinc,37 39 tin38-40 etc. are known to have beneficial effects as promoters for dimethyldichlorosilane formation.7,8 Promoters are not themselves good catalysts for the direct reaction at temperatures < 350 °C,6,8 but require the presence of copper to be effective. When zinc metal or zinc compounds (0.03-0.75 wt%) were added to silicon-copper contact mass, the reaction rate was potentiated and the selectivity of dimethyldichlorosilane was enhanced further.34 These materials are described as structural promoters because they alter the surface enrichment of silicon, increase the electron density of the surface of the catalyst modify the crystal structure of the copper-silicon solid phase, and affect the absorption of methyl chloride on the catalyst surface and the activation energy for the formation of dimethyldichlorosilane.38,39 Cadmium is also a structural promoter for this reaction, but cadmium presents serious toxicity problems in industrial use on a large scale.41,42 Other metals such as arsenic, mercury, etc. are also restricted because of such toxicity problems. In the direct reaction of methyl chloride, tin in... 

Reduction/Reaction with Hydrogen. Tetrafluorosilane reacts with hydrogen only above 2000°C. Tetrachlorosilane can be reduced by hydrogen at 1200°C. Tetraio do silane can be reduced to siUcon at 1000°C (165). Reduction of tetrafluorosilane with potassium metal to siUcon was the first method used to prepare siUcon (see Silicon and silicon alloys). The reduction of siUcon tetrachloride by zinc metal led to the first semiconductor-grade siUcon (166,167). 

Recently, transition-metal complexes have been reported as efficient catalysts for the addition of metal reagents, including magnesium, aluminium, silicon, zinc, germanium, and... 

The metallic constituents (barium, boron, calcium, magnesium, tin, silicon, zinc, aluminum, sodium, potassium, etc.) of new and used lubricating oils can be determined by a comprehensive system of chemical analysis (ASTM D-874, IP 163). 

We have shown that ion-assisted deposited on rubber and silicon thin metal films include not only metal atoms but also carbon, oxygen, hydrogen and silicon (from Si substrate), and sulphure, calcium, and zinc (from rubber). The coatings on rubber are characterized by semi-ellipsoids surface topography and increased roughness. The coatings on silicon are uniform with smooth surface. 

Many organic peroxides of metals have been hydrolyzed to alkyl hydroperoxides. The alkylperoxy derivatives of aluminum, antimony, arsenic, boron, cadmium, germanium, lead, magnesium, phosphoms, silicon, tin, and zinc yield alkyl hydroperoxides upon hydrolysis (10,33,60,61). 

The major harmful impurity is iron, and by keeping the iron content to less than 15p.p.m. it became possible to produce perfectly satisfactory anodes of zinc d . Alternatively the effect of the iron can be neutralised by alloying the zinc with certain metals, among which aluminium and silicon or cadmium have been found to be particularly effective. The presence of cadmium causes the corrosion product to fall away evenly, leaving an active surface (see Section 10.2). 

Intermediate alloy compositions include a zinc-15%-aluminium alloy for metal spraying (higher aluminium contents are unsuitable for spraying wire) and a zinc-30%-aluminium-0.2%-magnesium-0.2%-silicon coating (Lavegal) for sheet.

Baudoin etal. [168,169] first presented qualitative depth profiles of lacquer and polymer coatings by means of r.f. GD-OES. Quantitative depth profiles were successively obtained by Payling et al. [170] on prepainted metal coated steel. Samples comprised a (rutile) pigmented silicone-modified polyester topcoat over a polymer primer, on top of an aluminium-zinc-silicon alloy coated steel substrate. With GD-OES in r.f. mode, it was possible to determine the depth profile through the polymer topcoat, polymer primer coat, metal alloy coating, and alloy layer binding to the steel substrate with a total depth of 50 im, all in about 60 min on the one sample. GD-OES depth profiles of unexposed and weathered silicone-modified polyesters were also reported [171]. Radiofrequency GD-OES has further been used to... 

As mentioned above, approximately 7% of the total sulfur present in lead ore is emitted as S02. The remainder is captured by the blast furnace slag. The blast furnace slag is composed primarily of iron and silicon oxides, as well as aluminum and calcium oxides. Other metals may also be present in smaller amounts, including antimony, arsenic, beryllium, cadmium, chromium, cobalt, copper, lead, manganese, mercury, molybdenum, silver, and zinc. This blast furnace slag is either recycled back into the process or disposed of in piles on site. About 50 to 60% of the recovery furnace output is slag and residual lead, which are both returned to the blast furnace. The remainder of this dross furnace output is sold to copper smelters for recovery of the copper and other precious metals. 

Coprecipitation is a partitioning process whereby toxic heavy metals precipitate from the aqueous phase even if the equilibrium solubility has not been exceeded. This process occurs when heavy metals are incorporated into the structure of silicon, aluminum, and iron oxides when these latter compounds precipitate out of solution. Iron hydroxide collects more toxic heavy metals (chromium, nickel, arsenic, selenium, cadmium, and thorium) during precipitation than aluminum hydroxide.38 Coprecipitation is considered to effectively remove trace amounts of lead and chromium from solution in injected wastes at New Johnsonville, Tennessee.39 Coprecipitation with carbonate minerals may be an important mechanism for dealing with cobalt, lead, zinc, and cadmium.
