The novel metal complexes with empirical formulae M(mef)2·nH2O (where M = Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), and Cd(II); mef is the mefenamic ligand) were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductance, FTIR-spectroscopy, and thermal decomposition techniques. All IR spectra revealed absorption bands related to the asymmetric (νas) and symmetric (νs) vibrations of carboxylate group. The Nakamoto criteria clearly indicate that this group is bonded in a bidentate chelate mode. The thermal behavior of complexes was studied by TGA methods under non-isothermal condition in air. Upon heating, all compounds decompose progressively to metal oxides, which are the final products of pyrolysis. Cu(II), Zn(II), and Cd(II) complexes were also characterized by the coupled TG-FTIR technique, which finally proved the path and gaseous products of thermal decomposition. Additionally, the coupled TG-MS system was used to determine the principal volatile products of thermolysis and fragmentation processes of Mn(mef)2·3H2O and Co(mef)2·2H2O.

Polymeric carbon artifacts are particularly difficult to make in thick section. Heating rate, temperature, and sample thickness determine the outcome of carbonization of resin leading to a glassy polymeric carbon ware. Using wedge-shaped samples, we found the maximum thickness for various heating rates during gelling (300 K–360 K), curing (360 K–400 K), postcuring (400 K–500 K), and precarbonization (500 K–875 K). Excessive heating rate causes failure. In postcuring the critical heating rate varies inversely as the fifth power of thickness; in precarbonization this varies inversely as the third power of thickness. From thermogravimetric evidence we attribute such failure to low rates of diffusion of gaseous products of reactions occurring within the solid during pyrolysis. Mass spectrometry shows the main gaseous product is water vapor; some carboniferous gases are also evolved during precarbonization. We discuss a diffusion model applicable to any heat-treatment process in which volatile products are removed from solid bodies.

Corncobs are potentially processed into bio-oil through thermochemical liquefaction processes. It is difficult to construct kinetics models based on the compounds involved in the reaction. It would be made four kinetic models based on four reaction products, i.e., solids, bio-oil, gas and volatile products. The purposes of the study were to seek kinetics model of thermochemical liquefaction of corncobs in ethanol-water solution and to study the effect of ethanol concentration. The experiment of liquefaction processes of corncobs in ethanol-water solution using sodium carbonate catalyst was performed in the 150 ml autoclave equipped with a magnetic stirrer in the temperature up to 280°C. Four kinetic models were applied to predict the yield of four reaction product lumps. The calculation results were compared to the experimental data. Compared to the others, model 4 was the most realistic and closely matching to the experimental data. In model 4 the reaction mechanism was assumed that biomass (corncobs) first decomposed into bio-oil, followed by decomposition of bio-oil into volatile products reversibly and, finally, volatile products decomposed into gaseous products. The yield of bio-oil increased from 42.05% to 54.93% by increasing to ethanol concentration of 0% to 40%.

In this paper, the novel structure of carbon nanocoils were synthesized successfully by catalytic thermal decomposition of acetylene in CVD reactor under inert atmospheric pressure. Fe as a catalyst coated alumina beads used as substrate , both were placed inside a cylindrical shape stainless steel mesh SSC and located at the mid of CVD reactor. Preliminary study of application of prepared carbon nanocoil in synthesis of photodiode showed that the photodiode has a good rectification and the forward current obeys to tunneling-recombination model.

A new complexes of the type ML, MʹL and M″L [where M=Cu(II), Co(II), Ni(II) and Mn(II), Mʹ=Fe(III) and M″=Zn(II), Cd(II) and Hg(II) and L=N1-[(1E)-1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)ethylidene]-2-oxo-2H-chromene- 3-carbohydrazide (HL)] Schiff base have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, magnetic susceptibility, molar conductance, IR,1H NMR, UV-Visible and ESR data. The studies indicate the HL acts as doubly monodentate bridge for metal ions and form mononuclear complexes. The complexes Ni(II), Co(II), Cu(II) Mn(II) and Fe(III) complexes are found to be octahedral, where as Zn(II), Cd(II) and Hg(II) complexes are four coordinated with tetrahedral geometry. The synthesized ligand and its metal complexes were screened for their antimicrobial activity.

A study has been carried out of the sensitization of nitromethane, trinitrotoluene, trinitrobenzene, picric acid and tetryl by the addition of small amounts of amines. The sensitization has been confirmed using dropweight impact experiments and a new method has been found, using differential scanning calorimetry, of making reproducible and quantitative measurements of the effect. It is found that the nitrocompound-amine mixtures decompose at temperatures lower than those of either of the pure components and show a drop in the impact energy required to cause initiation of ignition. The thermal decomposition experiments also yield substantially lower activation energies and an empirical sensitization factor (defined in the text) for nitromethane mixtures that decreases as the nitromethane aci-anion concentration increases. Kinetic deuterium isotope analysis points to C-N bond scission as the rate-determining step in the thermal decomposition of nitromethane and nitromethane-amine mixtures. Laser ionization mass analyses of the solid nitrocompound-amine mixtures indicate significant changes in the fragmentation patterns, with removal of the nitro-group occurring in all cases as the first step in the breakdown of the mixtures, which is not the case for the pure materials. Absorption bands appear in the UV / visible spectra of all the sensitized materials. These bands are ascribed to an intermolecular charge transfer from the nitrogen of an amine group to the antibonding orbital of the nitro-group. It is shown that, with small amounts of amines present, each amine molecule can form a complex with as many nitrocompound molecules as there are amine groups on it. The formation of this charge transfer complex is shown to weaken the nitrocompound C-N bond involved. The weakening of the C-N bond increases directly with increasing binding energy of the complex. Combined with the knowledge that the C-N bond breakage is the rate- ­determining step in the thermal decomposition of these materials and the suggestion that the dominant mechanism in their ignition/detonation is most likely thermal in origin, the sensitization is explained. This explanation deviates from the theories which have been previously proposed.

Automobile shredder residue (ASR) pyrolysis produces solid, liquid, and gaseous products, particularly pyrolysis oil and gas, which could be used as renewable alternative energy resources. Due to the primary pyrolysis reaction not being complete, the yield of gaseous product is low. The pyrolysis tar comprises chemically unstable volatiles before condensing into liquid. Understanding the characteristics of volatile products will aid the design and improvement of subsequent processes. In order to accurately analyze the chemical characteristics and yields of volatile products of ASR primary pyrolysis, TG–FTIR–GC/MS analysis technology was used. According to the analysis results of the Gram–Schmidt profiles, the 3D stack plots, and GC/MS chromatograms of MixASR, ASR, and its main components, the major pyrolytic products of ASR included alkanes, olefins, and alcohols, and both had dense and indistinguishable weak peaks in the wavenumber range of 1900–1400 cm−1. Many of these products have unstable or weaker chemical bonds, such as =CH–, =CH2, –C=C–, and –C=CH2. Hence, more syngas with higher heating values can be obtained with further catalytic pyrolysis gasification, steam gasification, or higher temperature pyrolysis.
