The metal looks like iron it exists in four allotropic modifications, stable over various temperature ranges. Although not easily attacked by air. it is slowly attacked by water and dissolves readily in dilute acids to give manganese(II) salts. The stable form of the metal at ordinary temperatures is hard and brittle—hence man ganese is only of value in alloys, for example in steels (ferroalloys) and with aluminium, copper and nickel. [Pg.384]

To be able to prepare and study these elusive species in stable form, acids billions of times stronger than concentrated sulfuric acid were needed (so called superacids). Some substituted carbocations, however, are remarkably stable and are even present in nature. You may be surprised to learn that the fine red wine we drank tonight contained carbocations which are responsible for the red color of this natural 12% or so alcoholic solution. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did. [Pg.183]

A parallel thermodynamic study of 2-methylthia2ole was performed by Goursot and Westnim (299). The stable form was characterized by a temperature of melting of 248.42°K, an enthalpy of melting of 2907 cal mole and an entropy of melting of 11.70 cal mole ... [Pg.87]

The physical properties of a typical amino acid such as glycine suggest that it is a very polar substance much more polar than would be expected on the basis of its formula tion as H2NCH2CO2H Glycine is a crystalline solid it does not melt but on being heated It eventually decomposes at 233°C It is very soluble m water but practically insoluble m nonpolar organic solvents These properties are attributed to the fact that the stable form of glycine is a zwittenon, or inner salt...

Atoms with the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons are called isotopes. To identify an isotope we use the symbol E, where E is the element s atomic symbol, Z is the element s atomic number (which is the number of protons), and A is the element s atomic mass number (which is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons). Although isotopes of a given element have the same chemical properties, their nuclear properties are different. The most important difference between isotopes is their stability. The nuclear configuration of a stable isotope remains constant with time. Unstable isotopes, however, spontaneously disintegrate, emitting radioactive particles as they transform into a more stable form. [Pg.642]

The crystal stmcture of glycerides may be unambiguously determined by x-ray diffraction of powdered samples. However, the dynamic crystallization may also be readily studied by differential scanning calorimetry (dsc). Crystallization, remelting, and recrystallization to a more stable form may be observed when Hquid fat is solidified at a carefully controlled rate ia the iastmment. Enthalpy values and melting poiats for the various crystal forms are shown ia Table 3 (52). [Pg.130]

Another type of extmsion process iavolves the pressuri2ation of a fluid plastisol at low temperatures with an iaert gas. This mixture is subsequently extmded onto a belt or iato molds, where it expands (109,110). The expanded dispersion is then heated to fuse it iato a dimensionally stable form. [Pg.407]

When heated with small amounts of iodine, rosins, taU. oil, and other wood products are converted to more stable forms (135,136). Iodine has been used with some tin salts as a catalyst in the hydrogenation of coal (qv) and its distillation products (137,138), and has been recommended as a catalyst for the production of drying oils (qv) from unsaturated animal fats (139,140). [Pg.367]

The manufacture of the highly pure ketene required for ketenization and acetylation reactions is based on the pyrolysis of diketene, a method which has been employed in industrial manufacture. Conversion of diketene to monomeric ketene is accompHshed on an industrial scale by passing diketene vapor through a tube heated to 350—600°C. Thus, a convenient and technically feasible process for producing ketene uncontaminated by methane, other hydrocarbons, and carbon oxides, is available. Based on the feasibiHty of this process, diketene can be considered a more stable form of the unstable ketene. [Pg.475]

Benzophenone. Benzophenone [119-61-9] (diphenyl ketone) exists in a stable form as colorless orthorhombic bisphenoidal prisms when crystallized from alcohol or ether. Other labile forms of lower melting point exist. Benzophenone has been identified as a flavor component of wine grapes and has a geranium-like odor. It is soluble in most organic solvents, and is insoluble in water. [Pg.501]

In the sohd phase the most stable forms of Mn (ITT) are manganese sesquioxide [1317-34-6] M1I2O2, and its hydrate Mn202 and manganese... [Pg.506]

Aqueous potassium permanganate solutions are not perfectiy thermodynamically stable at 25°C, because Mn02, not MnO is the thermodynamically stable form of manganese in water. Thus permanganate tends to oxidize water with the evolution of oxygen and the deposition of manganese dioxide, which acts to further catalyze the reaction. [Pg.516]

Mercuric Sulfide. Mercuric s A ide[1344 8-5] HgS, exists ia two stable forms. The black cubic tetrahedral form is obtaiaed when soluble mercuric salts and sulfides are mixed the red hexagonal form is found ia nature as cinnabar (vermilion pigment). Both forms are very insoluble in water (see Pigments, inorganic). Red mercuric sulfide is made by heating the black sulfide in a concentrated solution of alkah polysulfide. The exact shade of the pigment varies with concentration, temperature, and time of reaction. [Pg.114]

Polymorphism. Many crystalline polyolefins, particularly polymers of a-olefins with linear alkyl groups, can exist in several polymorphic modifications. The type of polymorph depends on crystallisa tion conditions. Isotactic PB can exist in five crystal forms form I (twinned hexagonal), form II (tetragonal), form III (orthorhombic), form P (untwinned hexagonal), and form IP (37—39). The crystal stmctures and thermal parameters of the first three forms are given in Table 3. Form II is formed when a PB resin crystallises from the melt. Over time, it is spontaneously transformed into the thermodynamically stable form I at room temperature, the transition takes about one week to complete. Forms P, IP, and III of PB are rare they can be formed when the polymer crystallises from solution at low temperature or under pressure (38). Syndiotactic PB exists in two crystalline forms, I and II (35). Form I comes into shape during crystallisation from the melt (very slow process) and form II is produced by stretching form-1 crystalline specimens (35). [Pg.427]

Transformations in the Solid State. From a practical standpoint, the most important soHd-state transformation of PB involves the irreversible conversion of its metastable form II developed during melt crystallization into the stable form I. This transformation is affected by the polymer molecular weight and tacticity as well as by temperature, pressure, mechanical stress, and the presence of impurities and additives (38,39). At room temperature, half-times of the transformation range between 4 and 45 h with an average half-time of 22—25 h (39). The process can be significantly accelerated by annealing articles made of PB at temperatures below 90°C, by ultrasonic or y-ray irradiation, and by utilizing various additives. Conversion of...

Unsubstituted PMDs (2) or dyes containing odd alternate hydrocarbon residues as end groups can exist in two relatively stable forms distinguished by a TT-electron pair, eg, a,CO-diphenylpolymethines (9). [Pg.490]

It has been proposed to designate polymethine cations (9a) in an electron-deficient (N — 1) form, and anion (9b) in an electron-excessive (N + 1) form (17). As a rule, typical PMDs have only one stable form, in contrast to related polyenes with the same terminal residues which have two or even three relatively stable forms (17,18). [Pg.490]

Because of the multiple conjugated olefinic stmcture in the molecule, pure crystalline carotenoids are very sensitive to light and air and must be stored in sealed containers under vacuum or inert gas to prevent degradation. Thus, commercial utilization as food colorings was initially limited however, stable forms were developed and marketed as emulsions, oil solutions and suspensions, and spray-dried forms. [Pg.431]

Although 16 different crystalline modifications have been identified (24,25), the a-pentahydrate is the stable form below 48°C. Solutions of sodium thiosulfate in the absence of seed crystals can be easily supercooled below their normal crystallisation temperatures. The dotted line extension of the dihydrate phase in Figure 1 is an indication that, if supercooling takes place below this line, solutions normally giving the pentahydrate may form the dihydrate [36989-90-9] s1ste2id. [Pg.28]

Physical and Chemical Properties. Titanium dioxide [13463-67-7] occurs in nature in three crystalline forms anatase [1317-70-0] brookite [12188-41 -9] and mtile [1317-80-2]. These crystals are essentially pure titanium dioxide but contain small amounts of impurities, such as iron, chromium, or vanadium, which darken them. Rutile is the thermodynamically stable form at all temperatures and is one of the two most important ores of titanium. [Pg.120]

It is accepted that, at normal pressures, mtile is the thermodynamically stable form of titanium dioxide at all temperatures. Calorimetric studies have demonstrated that mtile is more stable than anatase and that brookite and Ti02 (ii) have intermediate stabiHties, although the relative stabiHties of brookite and Ti02(ii) have not yet been defined. The transformation of anatase to mtile is exothermic, eg, 12.6 KJ/mol (9), although lower figures have also been reported (63). The rate of transformation is critically dependent on the detailed environment and may be either promoted or retarded by the presence of other substances. For example, phosphoms inhibits the transformation of anatase to mtile (64). [Pg.120]

As-polymerized PVDC is not in its most stable state annealing and recrystaUization can raise the temperature at which it dissolves (78). Low crystallinity polymers dissolve at a lower temperature, forming metastable solutions. However, on standing at the dissolving temperature, they gel or become turbid, indicating recrystaUization into a more stable form. [Pg.433]

At higher temperatures the stable form is valentinite, which consists of infinite double chains. The orthorhombic modification is metastable below 570 °C however, it is sufficientiy stable to exist as a mineral. Antimony trioxide melts in the absence of oxygen at 656°C and partially sublimes before reaching the boiling temperature, 1425°C. The vapor at 1500°C consists largely of Sb O molecules, but these dissociate at higher temperatures to form Sb202 molecules. [Pg.202]
