Thus, a simple, rapid, and ecofriendly dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction method based on solidification of a floating organic drop (DLLME-SFO) technique has been developed for the extraction of methyl and propyl parabens from cosmetic cream. The separation and quantification of these parabens are performed using gas chromatographic flame ionization detector method. The extraction solvent, dispersive solvent, solvent volumes, diluent, gas chromatography (GC) column and carrier gas are optimized. The method is validated according to the ICH guideline for specificity, precision, recovery, linearity, and limit of detection.

The titanium dioxide content in the composites was 0.5–10 wt %. The structure of the obtained composites was studied by Raman spectroscopy and electron microscopy, and a detailed thermomechanical analysis of the samples was performed.

During operation, the nozzle blades are exposed to high temperatures, mechanical loads, sulfide and salt corrosion. Due to the influence of aggressive factors, carbon deposits, metal oxides and microcracks form on the surface of the blades of the gas turbine engine. To restore the performance characteristics of the blades, it is necessary to clean the surface of the blades from aluminum, titanium, tungsten, chromium, and nickel oxides. Based on the analysis of literature sources, it is shown that many detergents are not able to remove these oxides with high chemical resistance from the surface of the blades. In the article, halide-containing substances such as hydrogen fluoride gas, hydrofluoric acid, and hydrochloric acid were used to clean the blades from metal oxides. The main purpose of this work was to study the efficiency of cleaning the surface of the GTE nozzle blade with halide-containing compounds from carbon deposits and stable metal oxides of aluminum, titanium, tungsten, chromium, and nickel. The composition of the material used in the study and the analytical tools used to determine the surface composition of a sample of a GTE nozzle blade made of an alloy of the KHN54KVMTYUB brand are described. The methodology and conditions of the processes of exposure to gaseous hydrogen fluoride, hydrofluoric and hydrochloric acids are considered. The features of the effect of halide-containing substances on stable metal oxides on the sample surface have been studied. It was found that hydrogen fluoride gas reacts actively with aluminum and tungsten oxide, thereby destroying the basic structure of the oxide film. Hydrofluoric acid also reacts with the components of the KHN54KVMTUB alloy, accompanied by a thinning of the oxide layer and a decrease in the oxygen content on the surface. When cleaning with hydrochloric acid using ultrasonic treatment, depressions appeared on the surface of the blades. Thus, halide-containing reagents actively react with the surface of the KHN54KVMTUB alloy, which helps to clean the blades from the oxide layer.</p>","PeriodicalId":757,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Applied Chemistry","volume":"98 3","pages":"137 - 141"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-08-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144869095","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, polymer modification not only alters the target properties but may also affect other characteristics, sometimes negatively. The main task for developers of composite material is to select a balanced composition to achieve the desired goal—obtaining an antifriction, wear-resistant composite. The study presents a brief analysis of the effect of molybdenum disulfide on the overall properties of the polymer composites based on a literature review of publications from the last 5–7 years (16 sources, including cross-references). The effect of molybdenum disulfide on the physico-mechanical and technological properties of polyamide-6 has been investigated. In addition, various approaches to the creation of polymer composites are discussed. Initially, a fairly wide range of additive concentrations was studied and a narrow sector of its rational and effective use was determined. In the second stage of the study, the approach to polymer modification was changed. A modification scheme focused on large-scale production of polymer products was used. Based on the results of preliminary studies, international experience in this area was analyzed. It was noted that similar effects were observed when creating nanocomposites using modified molybdenum disulfide samples, but the general behavior of the polymer material and the achieved characteristics are different. The study highlights the challenges in producing MoS<sub>2</sub>-based composites via direct mixing of components in a twin-screw extruder and proposes a method for their production using concentrates. The behavior of polymer compositions in the areas of ultimate deformations were investigated, revealing an increase in tensile strength and a change in the destruction mechanisim with hypotheses proposed regarding their nature.
