Since most stabilizers react in more than one way and combinations of additives are required to prepare stabilized polypropylene fiber, these materials are better discussed in accord with the function they perform for polypropylene rather than the mechanism by which they function. When making fibers, stabilizers are added to polypropylene to (1) provide melt extrusion stability (2) provide long-term thermal stability at normal use temperatures and (3) provide stability to exposure to UV light (sunlight). The degree to which these stabilizers effectively accomplish their objectives without introducing other objectionable effects, such as yellowing, determines the value of the resultant fiber product. 

A Quinoline Yellow determination procedure was developed using a direct poten-tiometric method [29]. A Quinoline Yellow-coated graphite electrode and a polymeric membrane electrode, based on the use of the ion-pair complex of tetraphenylphospho-nium-Quinoline Yellow embedded in a poly(vinyl chloride) matrix as the electroactive substance, were successfully used in this analysis.

All the cations of Group I produce a characteristic colour in a flame (lithium, red sodium, yellow potassium, violet rubidium, dark red caesium, blue). The test may be applied quantitatively by atomising an aqueous solution containing Group I cations into a flame and determining the intensities of emission over the visible spectrum with a spectrophotometer Jlame photometry). 

Cyanide is determined at concentrations greater than 1 ppm by making the sample alkaline with NaOH and titrating with a standard solution of AgN03, forming the soluble Ag(CN)2 complex. The end point is determined using p-dimethylaminobenzalrhodamine as a visual indicator, with the solution turning from yellow to a salmon color in the presence of excess Ag+. 

The concentration of cyanide, CN, in a copper electroplating bath can be determined by a complexometric titration with Ag+, forming the soluble Ag(CN)2 complex. In a typical analysis a 5.00-mL sample from an electroplating bath is transferred to a 250-mL Erlenmeyer flask, and treated with 100 mL of H2O, 5 mL of 20% w/v NaOH, and 5 mL of 10% w/v Kl. The sample is titrated with 0.1012 M AgN03, requiring 27.36 mL to reach the end point as signaled by the formation of a yellow precipitate of Agl. Report the concentration of cyanide as parts per million of NaCN. 

Procedures for determining the concentrations of caffeine, benzoic acid and aspartame in soda by these three methods are provided. In the example provided in this paper, the concentrations of caffeine and benzoic acid in Mello Yellow are determined spectrophotometrically. 

Description of Method. The FIA determination of phosphate is an adaptation of a standard spectrophotometric analysis for phosphate. In the presence of add, phosphate reacts with molybdate to form a yellow-colored complex in which molybdenum is present as Mo(VI). 

The reduction of the yellow-colored Mo(VI) complex to the blue-colored Mo(V) complex is a slow reaction. In the standard spectrophotometric method, it is difficult to reprodudbly control the amount of time that reagents are allowed to react before measuring the absorbance. To achieve good precision, therefore, the reaction is allowed sufficient time to proceed to completion before measuring the absorbance. In the FIA method, the flow rate and the dimensions of the reaction coil determine the elapsed time between sample introduction and the measurement of absorbance (about 30 s in this configuration). Since this time is precisely controlled, the reaction time is the same for all standards and samples. 

Furfural was first isolated in the eady nineteenth century. Dobereiner is credited with the discovery. He obtained a small amount of a yellow "oil" (too Htde to characterize) as a by-product in the preparation of formic acid (8). Other chemists found that the same "oil" having a charactedstic aroma could be obtained by boiling finely divided vegetable materials such as oats, com, sawdust, bran, etc, with aqueous sulfuric acid or other acids (9,10). The oil was present in the Hquid resulting from condensation of the vapors produced during heating. The empirical formula was determined by Stenhouse... 

C is the concentration of limiting reactant in mol/L, c is the chemiluminescence quantum yield in ein/mol, and P is a photopic factor that is determined by the sensitivity of the human eye to the spectral distribution of the light. Because the human eye is most responsive to yellow light, where the photopic factor for a yellow fluorescer such as fluorescein can be as high as 0.85, blue or red formulations have inherently lower light capacities. 

The throwaway fuel cycle does not recover the energy values present ia the irradiated fuel. Instead, all of the long-Hved actinides are routed to the final waste repository along with the fission products. Whether or not this is a desirable alternative is determined largely by the scope of the evaluation study. For instance, when only the value of the recovered yellow cake and SWU equivalents are considered, the world market values for these commodities do not fully cover the cost of reprocessing (2). However, when costs attributable to the disposal of large quantities of actinides are considered, the classical fuel cycle has been the choice of virtually all countries except the United States. 

Iron Oxide Yellows. From a chemical point of view, synthetic iron oxide yellows, also known as iron gelbs, are based on the iron(III) oxide—hydroxide, a-FeO(OH), known as goethite. Color varies from light yellows to dark buffs and is primarily determined by particle size, which is usually between 0.1 and 0.8 p.m. Because of their resistance to alkahes, these are used by the building industry to color cement. Thermally, iron oxide yellows are stable up to 177°C above this temperature they dehydrate to iron(III) oxide ... 

The amino group is readily dia2oti2ed in aqueous solution, and this reaction forms a basis for the assay of sulfas. Aldehydes also react to form anils, and the yellow product formed with 4-(dimethylamino)hen2a1dehyde can be used for detection in thiu-layer and paper chromatography. Chromatographic retention values have been deterrnined in a number of thiu layer systems, and have been used as an expression of the lipophilic character of sulfonamides (23). These values have corresponded well with Hansch lipophilic parameters determined in an isobutyl alcohol—water system. 

Peroxidic Compounds. When hydrogen peroxide is added to a solution of titanium(IV) compounds, an intense, stable, yellow solution is obtained, which forms the basis of a sensitive method for determining small amounts of titanium. The color probably results from the peroxo complex [Ti(02)(0H)(H20)J, and crystalline salts such as K2[Ti(02)(S0 2] H20 can be isolated from alkaline solutions. The peroxo ligand is bidentate the two oxygen atoms ate equidistant from the titanium (98). 

The yellow form (11) on acidification is converted to the more stable thiol form (12). On oxidation, typically with alkaline ferhcyanide, yellow form (11) is irreversibly converted to thiochrome [299-35-4] (14), a yellow crystalline compound found naturally in yeast but with no thiamine activity. In solution, thiochrome exhibits an intense blue fluorescence, a property used for the quantitative determination of thiamine. 

Detection of Bromine Vapor. Bromine vapor in air can be monitored by using an oxidant monitor instmment that sounds an alarm when a certain level is reached. An oxidant monitor operates on an amperometric principle. The bromine oxidizes potassium iodide in solution, producing an electrical output by depolarizing one sensor electrode. Detector tubes, usefiil for determining the level of respiratory protection required, contain (9-toluidine that produces a yellow-orange stain when reacted with bromine. These tubes and sample pumps are available through safety supply companies (54). The usefiil concentration range is 0.2—30 ppm. 

A reaction of mixed molybdenum polyoxometalates (POMs) with cyanine dye has been used for highly selective and sensitive spectrophotometric determination of phosphorus(V) and arsenic(V). Color of the solution is considerably changed by reaction of Keggin POMs with styrene cyanine dyes. Derivatives of l,3,3-threemethyl-3//-indol - astrazone violet (AV 3R), astrazone rose, astrazone yellow, astrazone red were investigated. 

In this work hybrid method is suggested to determine anionic surfactants in waters. It is based on preconcentration of anionic surfactants as their ion associates with cationic dyes on the membrane filter and measurement of colour intensity by solid-phase spectrophotometry method. Effect of different basic dyes, nature and hydrophobicity of anionic surfactants, size of membrane filter pores, filtration rate on sensitivity of their determination was studied. Various cationic dyes, such as Methylene Blue, Crystal Violet, Malachite Green, Rhodamine 6G, Safranin T, Acridine Yellow were used as counter ions. The difference in reflection between the blank and the sample was significant when Crystal Violet or Rhodamine 6G or Acridine Yellow were used. 

Rj,=0.23 (red zone), R 3=0.31 (yellow zone), R =0.43 (light yellow zone), Rj =0.86 (red-brown zone). The last zone corresponds to zone of beta-carotene. Other pigments were not yet determined. 

Figure 4.8 The active site in all a/p barrels is in a pocket formed by the loop regions that connect the carboxy ends of the p strands with the adjacent a helices, as shown schematically in (a), where only two such loops are shown, (b) A view from the top of the barrel of the active site of the enzyme RuBisCo (ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase), which is involved in CO2 fixation in plants. A substrate analog (red) binds across the barrel with the two phosphate groups, PI and P2, on opposite sides of the pocket. A number of charged side chains (blue) from different loops as welt as a Mg ion (yellow) form the substrate-binding site and provide catalytic groups. The structure of this 500 kD enzyme was determined to 2.4 A resolution in the laboratory of Carl Branden, in Uppsala, Sweden. (Adapted from an original drawing provided by Bo Furugren.)...
