ABSTRACTUsing water as an example, it is shown that monitoring the change in the loss tangent is a high sensitive method that allows determining the activation energy of relaxation processes in nanostructured water with high accuracy. The use of sensors, the electrodes of which are not in direct contact with the liquid under study is shown to be reasonable. The conditions for obtaining reliable information on the properties of water and its solutions are also justified, namely: measurements should be carried out using pulse methods for several seconds, and then measurements should be stopped to avoid contamination of the solutions studied by electrolysis products. The method of monitoring the magnitude of the loss tangent at fixed frequencies allows the acidity of solutions (pH value) to be controlled at the same time without using specialized instruments for acidity studying.

Adenylate kinase from mitochondria of rat liver was made soluble by sonication. The enzyme had a pH optimum of 8.0, temperature optimum of 30°, and activation energy of 12.2 kcal/mole. It was activated by several divalent cations in the following order of efficiency: Mg++ > Co++ > Mn++ > Ca++, with an optimal Mg++: ADP ratio of 1. The apparent Km value (ADP as substrate) was found to be 1.3 mM at pH 7.4 and 30°. The activity was sensitive to phloretin and mildly activated by aurovertin. Oligomycin, 2,4-dinitrophenol, p-chloromercuribenzoate, alloxan, and phlorizin had no effect on the activity. The metabolic function and a comparison of the properties of this solubilized mitochondrial adenylate kinase with those of similar preparations from other sources are discussed in the light of these findings. During this study, a sensitive method adaptable for a large number of assays of adenylate kinase was developed, and is described in detail.

The aim of this research is to clarify a quantitative evaluation in the structural relaxation processes focusing on the activation energy in Cu based amorphous alloys. The activation energy for structural relaxation process in a metal type amorphous CuHfTi ternary alloys, with cross sections of typically 0.03 mm x 2.0 mm, prepared by chill-block melt spinning has been investigated by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) with a cyclically heating technique. Activation energies for structural relaxation with a spatial quantity in amorphous materials have been discussed by use of a relaxed ratio function that depends on annealing temperature and time. In the present work, the distributions for the Activation Energy Spectrum (AES) were observed almost 152 kJmol-1 (1.58 eV). Another result has been also established that the “reversible” AES model energy distribution though the cyclically structure relaxation occurs even in amorphous Cu60Hf20Ti20 alloy.

A detailed kinetic study of oxidation of toluene and its derivatives by cobaltic acetate in 95 vol% acetic acid is reported. The reaction was found to be profoundly affected by a steric factor and rather insensitive to the C—H bond energy. The order of reactivities of various alkylbenzenes is quite reversal to that of hydrogen abstraction reactions. The reaction was of first-order with respect to toluene, of second-order with respect to cobaltic ion and of inverse first-order with respect to cobaltous ion. The oxidation by cobaltic ion seems to proceed via an initial reversible electron transfer from toluene to cobaltic ion, yielding [Formula: see text] which is oxidized into benzyl acetate by another cobaltic ion. The apparent activation energy for toluene was found to be 25.3 kcal mole−1, and the same activation energy was found for ethylbenzene, cumene, diphenylmethane, and triphenylmethane.

The effect of Sodium Caseinates (SCN) addition on the rheological behavior of kefir during gel formation was monitored by means of a dynamic rheometer of novel design (U-tube Rheometer). Kefir samples were prepared from homogenized and pasteurized full fat (3.5% w/w) bovine milk with or without the addition of SCN at varying concentrations (1%, 2% or 3% w/w). A fermented milk inoculum derived from kefir grains was inoculated into the heat-treated milk and incubated at 25°C until the pH dropped to 4.6. According to the results, the fermentation time required for the onset of gelation, as well as for the pH value to reach 4.6 increased with increasing SCN concentration. The beginning of cross-linking of proteins towards aggregates that leads to the formation of a three-dimensional protein matrix, took place at higher pH values with increasing SCN concentration. The values of elastic modulus and loss tangent that correspond to this point decreased with increasing SCN content. The increase in SCN concentration caused the values of elastic modulus during gel formation to increase and those of loss tangent to decrease. The addition of caseins into the milk increased the number and the strength of the protein-protein interactions causing the elastic behavior of the samples to increase. The presence of SCN into the system of kefir greatly affected the formation of the kefir gel.

It is shown that there is a linear relationship between the activation energy for a thermal cis–trans isomerization and the heat of hydrogenation of the C=C bond. There is also a linear relationship between the entropy of activation and the heat of activation, there being a partial compensation effect. It is pointed out that the activation energy for these processes is very close to the π-bond energy of the C=C bond. The significance of these relationships is discussed in terms of the reaction mechanisms.

Abstract 1. In vulcanized rubbers containing blacks a multi-stage mechanism for stress relaxation was observed. It was discovered that the stress relaxation process consists of five fundamental processes: the first three relaxation processes, related to the slow stages of physical relaxation within the bulk of the rubber, have no connection with the fillers (“soft” domains); the fourth process has to do with the relaxation in the black-rubber domain; the fifth process involves the chemical relaxation of vulcanizates. 2. The fundamental mechanisms of the first 3 relaxation processes in the soft domains have the same activation energy values and the same segmental mechanism as the rearranged domains found in supermolecular weight structures, which are also present in unfilled vulcanizates. 3. In the investigated stress range of up to 200% elongation, the activation energy for the first 3 relaxation processes in the soft domains of filled vulcanizates is not a function of the deformation strain, whereas the activation energy of the fourth relaxation process in the black-rubber domains of filled rubbers is a function of the deformation and of the filler content. For these reasons, rubber loaded with carbon blacks, in contrast to unfilled rubbers, possess the typical nonlinearity of viscoelastic materials. 4. The activation energies of the relaxation processes in the black-rubber domains decrease in a linear fashion with the value for the initial tensile stress in filled vulcanizates, and decrease in like manner for vulcanizates containing different proportions of fillers. The kinetic units, determined from the activation energies of these processes, appeared to be segments of chains with activation energies of up to 40% more than the activation energies of the physical relaxation processes in the soft domains. The other kinetic units of the processes proved to be black particles, the dimensions of which were calculated from the values for the coefficients in the formula for relaxation time.
