The main anthropogenic sources of antimony emission have been identified, the emission factors have been developed, and the volumes of antimony emission for the period from 1990 to 2020 have been calculated. It is shown that total antimony emissions varied in the range from 1.6 to 5.6 tons per year with maximum values in the early 1990 s, and minimal – in 2000. Antimony emission in 2020 on the territory of the country is estimated at 2.4 t, the contribution of Belarus to global emission is 0.1 %. Decreasing trend of antimony emission over a 30-year period and a change in the contribution of the main sources to total emission have been established. A significant decrease in the contribution of stationary combustion of fuel (from 66 to 14 %) is due to a change in the fuel balance and is accompanied by increase of the contribution of brake wear (from 34 to 61 %). The data obtained can be used to model the transport and dispersion of antimony, to assess health and ecosystems risks, and to develope measures to reduce the releases of antimony into the environment.","PeriodicalId":20798,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus, Chemical Series","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89535877","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It has been established that the developed products of rosin modification (adhesive rosin composition TMAS3N and polyamide resin ProChem DUO) containing amides of resin acids, when introduced into paper pulps made from fibrous suspensions of sulphate cellulose (unbleached and bleached) of coniferous and broad-leaved species and waste paper, different in the degree of grinding (25, 40 and 70 °ShR), contribute to the increase in the strength of interfiber bonds in paper in the z-direction. The effect of the TMAS-3N emulsion was compared with the traditionally used TM and AKD sizing emulsions. The introduction of the TMAS-3N emulsion into paper pulps (0.40 % of a. d. w.) provides the maximum increase in the strength of interfiber bonds in paper in the z-direction made from cellulose, equal to 16.7–88.6 %, and from waste paper – 19.4–75.4 %, which is 1.6–6.4 and 2.3–4.5 times more compared to TM emulsion, respectively. The achieved positive effect is due to the presence in the TMAS-3H emulsion of particles of the dispersed phase of hydroxyethylamides and aminoethyl ethers capable of forming hydrogen bonds with hydroxyl groups on the mating surfaces of cellulose fibers. Sizing paper stocks with AKD emulsion reduces the strength of interfiber bonds in paper in the z-direction over the entire range of paper content studied. Polyamide resin ProChem DUO, which is a polyaminoamide of rosin resin acids, at its content in paper stocks of 0.10 %, increases the strength of interfiber bonds in paper in the z-direction, made from cellulose and waste paper suspensions, by 50.0–92.3 and 44.4–63.5 %, respectively.
