Drop Time

The behaviour of electrochemically reducible single-strand polynucleotides (poly(adenylic acid)) and poly(cytidylic acid)) was studied by the differential (derivative) pulse polarography (DPP) and by other methods. Measurements were performed with the help of the dropping mercury electrode under various conditions specified by the pulse width, pulse amplitude, drop time etc. For the faradaic and tensammetric DPP peaks the diagnostic criteria were proposed which make it possible to classify even very small DPP peaks of double helical polynucleotides.

Mechanism Of The Reaction

The polarographic behaviour of n-butylthioglycolate (RSH) at the DME in aqueous media, methanol, and acetonitrile has been investigated in the presence of 0.1 M KNO3 and 0.01% thymol. The effect of pH, concentration of RSH, and drop time on the wave characteristics and the mechanism of the reaction occurring at the surface of the mercury drop have been studied. Well-defined reversible and diffusion-controlled anodic waves were obtained in aqueous media (pH 4.2), 40% methanol (pH 3.22), and 40% acetonitrile (pH 2.96). Mathematical and analytical evidence was obtained to show that the anodic wave of RSH at a dropping mercury electrode in aqueous media, 40% methanol, and 40% acetonitrile is due to the formation of the mercury complex RSHg. The dissociation constant (pK) of the mercapto group in n-butylthioglycolate is 9.6 and the diffusion coefficient in the different media are 1.17 × 10−6 cm2 s−1 (in aqueous media) 1.23 × 10−6 cm2 s−1 (in 40% methanol), and 2.43 × 10−6 cm2 s−1 (in 40% acetonitrile). The linearity of id with RSH concentration provides a rapid and precise method for the determination of RSH, down to 0.4 mM in aqueous media, methanol, and acetonitrile.

Drop Time

Electrocapillary investigations by the drop time method revealed a rather strong surface activity of aqueous petroleum solutions and some petroleum fractions in solutions of base electrolytes at the dropping mercury electrode, depending on the quality of the surfactant. The highest surface activity and sensitivity of analytical determination was found between -0.4 and -0.6 V (S.C.E.). The detection limit of the electrocapillary method was 10-20 μg/l for Diesel oil and up to 5 times higher for petroleum samples. The sensitivity of the measurements at lowest concentrations was increased by convective adsorption accumulation at the surface of the growing drop.

Drop Time

A series of methods are used for the quantitative description of the time dependent interfacial behaviour of tributylphosphine oxide (TBPO). These methods include measurements of the interfacial tension by a capillary electrometer as well as differential capacitance measurements with a dropping mercury electrode (D.M.E.) of short drop times (⪬5 s), a D.M.E. of large drop times (~20 s) and a hanging mercury drop electrode (H.M.D.E.). The capacitance measurements with large drop times reveal the existence of peculiarities during the development of the adsorption film. The adsorption equilibrium of TBPO, at the vicinity of the adsorption maximum, is generally established within times shorter than 10 s. At the region of the adsorption pseudocapacity, time intervals ranging from 200 to 400 seconds are required for the equilibrium. The adsorption parameters derived with the large drop time D.M.E., are in reasonable agreement with those obtained by electrocapillary measurements.

Drop Time

The adsorption of carbamide and its aliphatic derivatives at the interphase mercury - electrolyte solution was studied, using the drop-time technique. The surface concentration *G of carbamide and its derivatives has been calculated for a wide range of concentrations at the selected potential. The shape of the electrocapillary curves indicates that both carbamide and its derivatives are adsorbed at the interphase mercury-electrolyte solution.
