There are a number of elements and their alloys vhich are more active than steel in the electrochemical series. The main practical metals are zinc, aluminium and magnesium. All of these metals are used, often in alloyed form, as sacrificial anodes for steel structures in water. Zinc and aluminium alloys are being used in experimental SACP systems (Whiting et si, 1995). An experimental system using an expanded aluminium mesh anode is shown in Figure 6.4. [Pg.128]

Worden s enthusiasm for the future of Federal Dyestuffs rested on several points the Kingsport site offered convenient access to coal, salt, water, zinc, and limestone, all of which contributed to lower costs railroad lines provided good transportation to markets in New England and the South a temperate climate and sizable pools of unskilled labor, black and white. [Pg.115]

Evidence for the solvated electron e (aq) can be obtained reaction of sodium vapour with ice in the complete absence of air at 273 K gives a blue colour (cf. the reaction of sodium with liquid ammonia, p. 126). Magnesium, zinc and iron react with steam at elevated temperatures to yield hydrogen, and a few metals, in the presence of air, form a surface layer of oxide or hydroxide, for example iron, lead and aluminium. These reactions are more fully considered under the respective metals. Water is not easily oxidised but fluorine and chlorine are both capable of liberating oxygen ... [Pg.271]

Add 10 g. of the crude hydrazobenzene to 80 ml. of ethanol contained in a flask fitted with a reflux water-condenser. Heat the mixture on a water-bath until the ethanol bolls, and then add 10 g. of zinc dust and 30 ml. of 30% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution. Remove the flask from the water-bath and shake the contents vigorously from time to time. After about 10 minutes, replace the flask on the water-bath and boil the contents for 3-5 minutes. Filter the mixture at the pump, transfer the filtrate to a beaker and cool in ice-water with stirring. The hydrazobenzene separates as colourless crystals, which are filtered off at the pump and drained. A portion when dried in a desiccator has m.p. 124°. [Pg.216]

A 1500 ml. flask is fitted (preferably by means of a three-necked adaptor) with a rubber-sleeved or mercury-sealed stirrer (Fig. 20, p. 39), a reflux water-condenser, and a dropping-funnel cf. Fig. 23(c), p. 45, in which only a two-necked adaptor is shown or Fig. 23(G)). The dried zinc powder (20 g.) is placed in the flask, and a solution of 28 ml. of ethyl bromoacetate and 32 ml. of benzaldehyde in 40 ml. of dry benzene containing 5 ml. of dry ether is placed in the dropping-funnel. Approximately 10 ml. of this solution is run on to the zinc powder, and the mixture allowed to remain unstirred until (usually within a few minutes) a vigorous reaction occurs. (If no reaction occurs, warm the mixture on the water-bath until the reaction starts.) The stirrer is now started, and the rest of the solution allowed to run in drop-wise over a period of about 30 minutes so that the initial reaction is steadily maintained. The flask is then heated on a water-bath for 30 minutes with continuous stirring, and is then cooled in an ice-water bath. The well-stirred product is then hydrolysed by the addition of 120 ml. of 10% sulphuric acid. The mixture is transferred to a separating-funnel, the lower aqueous layer discarded, and the upper benzene layer then... [Pg.287]

Add 1 ml. of the alcohol-free ether to 0-1-0-15 g. of finely-powdered anhydrous zinc chloride and 0 5 g. of pure 3 5-dinitrobenzoyl chloride (Section 111,27,1) contained in a test-tube attach a small water condenser and reflux gently for 1 hour. Treat the reaction product with 10 ml. of 1-5N sodium carbonate solution, heat and stir the mixture for 1 minute upon a boiling water bath, allow to cool, and filter at the pump. Wash the precipitate with 5 ml. of 1 5N sodium carbonate solution and twice with 6 ml. of ether. Dry on a porous tile or upon a pad of filter paper. Transfer the crude ester to a test-tube and boil it with 10 ml. of chloroform or carbon tetrachloride filter the hot solution, if necessary. If the ester does not separate on cooling, evaporate to dryness on a water bath, and recrystallise the residue from 2-3 ml. of either of the above solvents. Determine the melting point of the resulting 3 5 dinitro benzoate (Section 111,27). [Pg.316]

The experimental details for mono-M-propylanillne are as follows. Reflux a mixture of 230 g. of aniline and 123 g. of n-propyl bromide for 8-10 hours. Allow to cool, render the mixture alkafine, and add a solution of 150 g. of zinc chloride in 150 g. of water. Cool the mixture and stir after 12 hours, filter at the pump and drain well. Extract the thick paste several times with boiling light petroleum, b.p. 60-80° (it is best to use a Soxhlet apparatus), wash the combined extracts successively with water and dilute ammonia solution, and then dry over anhydrous potassium carbonate or anhydrous magnesium sulphate. Remove the solvent on a water bath, and distil the residue from a Claisen flask with fractionating side arm (well lagged). Collect the n-propyl-aniline at 218-220° the yield is 80 g. Treat the pasty solid zincichloride with an excess of. sodium hydroxide solution and steam distil 130 g. of pure aniline are recovered. [Pg.571]

Support a 1500 ml. three-necked flask, equipped with a mercury-sealed stirrer and a double surface reflux condenser, on a water bath, and place a solution of 84 g. of sodium hydroxide in 185 ml. of water, 50 g. (41-5 ml.) of nitrobenzene and 500 ml. of methyl alcohol in the flask. Add 70 g. of zinc powder (1), start the stirrer, and reflux for 10 hours. The solution gradually assumes the reddish colour of azobenzene and then on further... [Pg.632]

Phthalide. In a 1 litre bolt-head flask stir 90 g. of a high quality zinc powder to a thick paste with a solution of 0 5 g. of crystallised copper sulphate in 20 ml. of water (this serves to activate the zinc), and then add 165 ml. of 20 per cent, sodium hydroxide solution. Cool the flask in an ice bath to 5°, stir the contents mechanically, and add 73-5 g. of phthalimide in small portions at such a rate that the temperature does not rise above 8° (about 30 minutes are required for the addition). Continue the stirring for half an hour, dilute with 200 ml. of water, warm on a water bath imtil the evolution of ammonia ceases (about 3 hours), and concentrate to a volume of about 200 ml. by distillation vmder reduced pressure (tig. 11,37, 1). Filter, and render the flltrate acid to Congo red paper with concentrated hydrochloric acid (about 75 ml. are required). Much of the phthalide separates as an oil, but, in order to complete the lactonisation of the hydroxymethylbenzoic acid, boil for an hour transfer while hot to a beaker. The oil solidifles on cooling to a hard red-brown cake. Leave overnight in an ice chest or refrigerator, and than filter at the pump. The crude phthalide contains much sodium chloride. RecrystaUise it in 10 g. portions from 750 ml. of water use the mother liquor from the first crop for the recrystaUisation of the subsequent portion. Filter each portion while hot, cool in ice below 5°, filter and wash with small quantities of ice-cold water. Dry in the air upon filter paper. The yield of phthalide (transparent plates), m.p. 72-73°, is 47 g. [Pg.772]

Organophosphoms compounds, primarily phosphonic acids, are used as sequestrants, scale inhibitors, deflocculants, or ion-control agents in oil wells, cooling-tower waters, and boiler-feed waters. Organophosphates are also used as plasticizers and flame retardants in plastics and elastomers, which accounted for 22% of PCl consumed. Phosphites, in conjunction with Hquid mixed metals, such as calcium—zinc and barium—cadmium heat stabilizers, function as antioxidants and stabilizer adjutants. In 1992, such phosphoms-based chemicals amounted to slightly more than 6% of all such plastic additives and represented 8500 t of phosphoms. Because PVC production is expected to increase, the use of phosphoms additive should increase 3% aimually through 1999. [Pg.383]

Ammonia is corrosive to akoys of copper and zinc and these materials must not be used in ammonia service. Iron or steel should usuaky be the only metal in ammonia storage tanks, piping, and fittings. It is recommended that ammonia should contain at least 0.2% water to prevent steel stress corrosion. Mercury thermometers should be avoided. [Pg.354]

Table 8 summarizes domestic consumption by use for amyl alcohols. About 55% of the total 1-pentanol and 2-methyl-1-butanol production is used for zinc diamyldithiophosphate lubrication oil additives (150) as important corrosion inhibitors and antiwear additives. Amyl xanthate salts are useful as frothers in the flotation of metal ores because of their low water solubiUty and miscibility with phenoHcs and natural oils. Potassium amyl xanthate, a collector in flotation of copper, lead, and zinc ores, is no longer produced in the United States, but imports from Germany and Yugoslavia were 910 —1100 t in 1989 (150). [Pg.376]

Magnesium oxide is a typical acid scavenger for chlorinated mbbers. Compounds containing zinc oxide or magnesium oxide may tend to swell upon immersion in water. These inorganic salts have some water solubiHty and osmotic pressure causes the vulcanizates to imbibe water to equalize pressure (8,9). As such, vulcanizates tend to sweU more in fresh (distilled) water than in salt water. To minimize water sweU, insoluble salts such as lead oxides can be substituted. Because of the health concerns associated with lead, there is much mbber industry interest in other acid acceptors, such as synthetic... [Pg.225]

Production and Economic Aspects. Thallium is obtained commercially as a by-product in the roasting of zinc, copper, and lead ores. The thallium is collected in the flue dust in the form of oxide or sulfate with other by-product metals, eg, cadmium, indium, germanium, selenium, and tellurium. The thallium content of the flue dust is low and further enrichment steps are required. If the thallium compounds present are soluble, ie, as oxides or sulfates, direct leaching with water or dilute acid separates them from the other insoluble metals. Otherwise, the thallium compound is solubilized with oxidizing roasts, by sulfatization, or by treatment with alkaU. The thallium precipitates from these solutions as thaUium(I) chloride [7791 -12-0]. Electrolysis of the thaUium(I) sulfate [7446-18-6] solution affords thallium metal in high purity (5,6). The sulfate solution must be acidified with sulfuric acid to avoid cathodic separation of zinc and anodic deposition of thaUium(III) oxide [1314-32-5]. The metal deposited on the cathode is removed, kneaded into lumps, and dried. It is then compressed into blocks, melted under hydrogen, and cast into sticks. [Pg.467]

Calcium—zinc stabilizers are used in both plasticized PVC and rigid PVC for food contact where it is desired to minimize taste and odor characteristics. AppHcations include meat wrap, water botdes, and medical uses. [Pg.503]

Zinc, like most metals, is found in all natural waters and soils as well as the atmosphere and is an important trace element in plant and animal life (see Mineral nutrients). Rocks of various kinds contain 20—200 ppm zinc and normal soils 10—30 ppm (average ca 50 ppm) in uncontaminated areas. The average zinc content of coal is 33 ppm. Seawater contains 1—27 )-lg/L (median ca 8 p.g/L), and uncontaminated freshwater usually <10 / g/L. [Pg.396]

Zinc chloride melts at 275°C, bods at 720°C, and is stable in the vapor phase up to 900°C. It is very hygroscopic, extremely water-soluble, and soluble in organic Hquids such as alcohols, esters, ketones, ethers, amides, and nitrides. Hydrates with 1, 1.5, 2.5, 3, and 4 molecules of water have been identified and great care must be exercised to avoid hydration of the anhydrous form. Aqueous solutions of zinc chloride are acidic (pH = 1.0 for 6 M) and, when partially neutralized, can form slightly soluble basic chlorides, eg, ZnCl2 4Zn(OH)2 [11073-22-6] and Zn(OH)Cl [14031-59-5]. Many other basic chlorides have been reported (58). [Pg.423]

Arsine is formed when any inorganic arsenic-bearing material is brought in contact with zinc and sulfuric acid. The arsenides of the electropositive metals are decomposed with the formation of arsine by water or acid. Calcium arsenide [12255-53-7] Ca2As2, treated with water gives a 14% yield of arsine. Better yields (60—90%) are obtained by decomposing a solution of sodium arsenide [12044-25-6] Na As, in Hquid ammonia with ammonium bromide (14,15). Arsine may be accidentally formed by the reaction of arsenic impurities in commercial acids stored in metal tanks, so that a test should be made for... [Pg.332]

Methyl bromide, when dry (<100 ppm water), is inert toward most materials of constmction. Carbon steel is recommended for storage vessels, piping, pumps, valves, and fittings. Copper, brass, nickel, and its alloys are sometimes used. Aluminum, magnesium, zinc, and alloys of these metals should not be used because under some conditions dangerous pyrophoric compounds may be formed. Many nonmetallic materials are also useful for handling methyl bromide, but nylon and polyvinyl chloride should be avoided. [Pg.294]

Liquid mixtures of methanol and hydrochloric acid slowly yield methyl chloride even at 0°C (20,21), The typical process is carried out by contacting the alcohol with hydrochloric acid at 70 to 160°C and 0.1—1 MPa (15—150 psig) in the presence of a catalyst such as zinc chloride, quaternary amines (18,19,22), or with no catalyst at aH (23,24). TypicaHy 0.5 to 3% of the methanol is converted to dimethyl ether. Product methyl chloride is taken out of the reactor as a vapor and is cooled to condense as much of the water vapor and HCl as possible. Dimethyl ether and the residual water is then removed and the finished methyl chloride is condensed. [Pg.514]

Gas Phase. The gas-phase methanol hydrochlorination process is used more in Europe and Japan than in the United States, though there is a considerable body of Hterature available. The process is typicaHy carried out as foHows vaporized methanol and hydrogen chloride, mixed in equimolar proportions, are preheated to 180—200°C. Reaction occurs on passage through a converter packed with 1.68—2.38 mm (8—12 mesh) alumina gel at ca 350°C. The product gas is cooled, water-scmbbed, and Hquefied. Conversions of over 95% of the methanol are commonly obtained. Garnma-alurnina has been used as a catalyst at 295—340°C to obtain 97.8% yields of methyl chloride (25). Other catalysts may be used, eg, cuprous or zinc chloride on active alumina, carbon, sHica, or pumice (26—30) sHica—aluminas (31,32) zeoHtes (33) attapulgus clay (34) or carbon (35,36). Space velocities of up to 300 h , with volumes of gas at STP per hour per volume catalyst space, are employed. [Pg.514]

Carbon tetrachloride can be reduced to chloroform using a platinum catalyst (10) or zinc and acid. With potassium amalgam and water, carbon tetrachloride can be totally reduced to methane. It is widely employed as an initiator in the dehydrochlorination of chloroethanes at 400—600°C ... [Pg.530]
