Such accurate information is obtained in special laboratories at enterprises by long-term and expensive physical and chemical methods. Transfer numbers give an indirect assessment of the quality of ion exchangers, but the method of differential itn-metry gives a result in a short 30-minute experiment on the electrolysis of a NaOH or NaCl solution in a three-chamber electrolyzer reactor. The electrolyzer-reactor contains an electrolyte volume of up to 40 cm3. The middle chamber of the electrolyzer-reactor has a variable width from 0.05 to 0.2 cm and an area of 10 cm2 perpendicular to the direction of the electric current. \u0000The primary result of each experiment was the functions of the electrolyte concentration dynamics C(τ) in the extreme cathode and anode chambers of the electrolyzer- reactor, where the dynamics of the readings of the flow resistometric sensor developed by us were recorded during the electrolysis process. The effective transfer number itn* was determined by mathematical data processing using a system of approximation functions. \u0000The method of differential itn-metry will be effective for other resins with amphoteric properties. The use of such a method could be used in works for the study of a wide range of problems in environmental monitoring and management of environmental projects.","PeriodicalId":23394,"journal":{"name":"Ukrainian Chemistry Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80267884","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}

The curing reactions determine the morphology and structure of the system, affecting the properties of the final material. This work analyzes the curing process of polymer composites based on epoxy oligomer - polyethylene glycol diglycidyl ether (DEG), polyethylene polyamine hardener (PEPA) and lithium perchlorate salt LiClO4. The initial components, the mixture of DEG/PEPA composition and the DEG/PEPA/LiClO4 system supplemented with salt were investigated. Using the methods of Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and rheological analysis in dynamic mode the curing conditions of the systems were established. It was shown that the nature of the distribution of vibration bands in the IR spectra of the DEG/PEPA and DEG/PEPA/LiClO4 systems is a superposition of the IR spectra of the initial components. Lithium perchlorate in the salt-doped initial system is in an undissociated state and dissociates in the polymer matrix over time during the curing of the system. In particular, the time dependences of the concentration of epoxide groups in the DEG/PEPA system calculated using the integral intensity ratios were analyzed by IR spectroscopy data. To study the curing process with increased segmental mobility of the reacting macromolecules, rheokinetic measurements were performed at 50°C. Analysis of the nature of changes in the elastic and viscosity moduli over time allowed us to estimate the gel time of the initial and doped systems. Differences in the IR spectra for both systems before the formation of the three-dimensional structure and at the gel point, as well as the IR spectra of these systems after the curing reaction, were analyzed. Attention was also paid to the nature of the influence of dopant on the curing process and its state in the mixture/composite of DEG/PEPA/LiClO4 composition. Lithium perchlorate LiClO4 is an effective catalyst for the aminolysis of the oxirane ring, which explains the acceleration of the curing reaction of the system in the presence of salt.","PeriodicalId":23394,"journal":{"name":"Ukrainian Chemistry Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88013347","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 was established that these properties have a clear dependence on the synthesis method, starting materials, and the composition of the synthesis medium. \u0000The main ways of changing graphene's structural-morphological, physico-chemical and electrical properties are changes in the synthesis method and conditions that affect the formation of σ-bonds and π-bonds. The presence of these bonds regulates the number of graphene layers and the formation of van der Waals interactions between them, as well as the formation of edge structural defects responsible for electrokinetic and catalytic properties. Changing the gas medium to a liquid one greatly simplifies the synthesis of graphene. Still, in the case of a liquid nitrogen medium, simultaneously with a 2-dimensional structure, it is possible to form 3-dimensional particles up to tens of nanometers in size. Aqueous medium and plasma-arc synthesis methods are the most attractive for obtaining materials with electron-donor conductivity, which have attractive electrochemical and catalytic properties for use in chemical current sources and fuel cells. Using an aqueous environment requires mandatory further heat treatment at temperatures above 250 0C to separate chemisorbed water from the structure, which complicates the synthesis procedure. The advantage of the plasma-arc method for the synthesis of graphene and other carbon nanostructures is its ability to shorten the stages of the synthesis of graphene, the possibility of modifying them directly during the synthesis process by changing the environment, easy management, and obtaining a clean final product. In the modern practice, this method is limited to obtaining coatings on a solid carrier.","PeriodicalId":23394,"journal":{"name":"Ukrainian Chemistry Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84915440","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 was established that P(III) in the amount of only 2% mol. from substituted benzoic acid effectively catalyze this reaction, which proceeds in boiling low-polar solvents with intensive water distillation in an air atmosphere, which leads to obtaining anilides of substituted benzoic acids with a yield close to quantitative. The new catalysts, phosphorus trichloride and tribromide, phosphorous acid, successfully complement the catalytic system tetrabutoxytitanate/polybutoxytitanate, previously used for these purposes, allowing to obtain anilides of aminobenzoic acids with greater selectivity, as well as anilides of oxybenzoic acids. \u0000The study of the kinetic regularities of the reaction catalyzed by phosphorus trichloride showed a weak effect of substituents: |ρ| ≤ 0.61. Hammett dependences are represented by curves with a maximum, straight line segments are characteristic only for certain groups of substituents, both for meta- and para-substituted and for orthosubstituted benzoic acids. \u0000 One of the possible mechanisms of acylation is the formation in situ in the first minutes of the reaction of aniline phosphite, which can act as an oxygen-nucleophilic catalyst, and, upon interaction with substituted benzoic acid, forms the corresponding benzoyl phosphite, which is then attacked by a free aniline molecule to obtain substituted benzanilide. \u0000 The ortho effect for P(III) catalysis is absent or very weak, in the case of aminobenzoic acids.
