Iodometric Back Titration (IBT) and Spectrophotometric (SPM) determination are two commonly used methods for the determination of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) concentration in sea water. These two methods were applied in parallel for analysis of Black Sea anoxic waters and artificial solutions containing different H2S concentrations. The results of the SPM and IBT methods are in agreement when the HIS concentration in sea water is higher than 30 mu M and the precision of IBT is higher than that of SPM method. However, an opposite trend appears when the concentration of sulfide is less than 30 mu M; moreover, the SPM method provided lower results than the IBT values. This apparent difference is most probably due to the presence of some hydrogen sulfide oxidation products (e.g., thiosulfate) consuming the iodine solution added to samples, but the complexing agent (N,N-dimethyl-p-phenylendiamine) used in SPM method, reacts with H2S only.

A comparative study of spectrophotometric and iodometric back titration methods for hydrogen sulfide determination in anoxic basins Basturk, O; Romanov, A; Gokmen, S; Konovalov, S (2000-01-01) Iodometric Back Titration (TBT) and Spectrophotometric (SPM) methods are two common methods used in the determination of hydrogen sulfide concentrations in anoxic basins, like in the upper sections of the Black Sea anoxic waters. Although the results obtained by both methods are in agreement when the concentrations of sulfide are higher than 30 mu M/l, IBT analysis gives more reproducible results compared to SPM analysis. On the other hand, the reproducibility of the SPM is better than that of IBT method wh...
A THERMODYNAMIC STUDY OF THE SYSTEM MGCL2-NACL-CACL2 Karakaya, İshak (1986-10-01) The reversible EMF for the formation of MgCl2 in fused salts containing NaCl and CaCl2 was studied with a view to furthering the understanding of electrolytes of use in industrial magnesium electrolysis. Measurements were carried out in a cell with pure chlorine gas and Mg-Bi alloy as active electrode materials. The data were used to infer the Gibbs energy of mixing, the enthalpy of mixing and the entropy of mixing. These properties were used with other data to construct the liquidus surface of the ternary ...
A comparative study of electrocoagulation and coagulation of aqueous suspensions of kaolinite powders Kilic, Mehtap Guelsuen; Hoşten, Çetin (2010-04-15) Removal of kaolinite particles from their synthetically prepared suspensions was studied by electrocoagulation and coagulation to investigate the effect of such operating parameters as initial pH, coagulant dosage, applied voltage, current density, and time. Coagulation was more effective in a wider pH range (pH 5-8) than electrocoagulation which yielded optimum effectiveness in a relatively narrower pH range around 9, where, in both methods, these pH values corresponded to near-zero zeta potentials of kaol...
An investigation of the chemical synthesis and high-temperature sintering behaviour of calcium hydroxyapatite (HA) and tricalcium phosphate (TCP) bioceramics Tas, AC; Korkusuz, Feza; Timucin, M; Akkas, N (1997-02-01) The experimental conditions for the synthesis of sub-micrometre, spherical particles of calcium hydroxyapatite [Ca,,(PO,),(OH),] (HA) and tricalcium phosphate [Ca,(PO,),] (TCP) are investigated through chemical coprecipitation from the aqueous solutions of calcium nitrate and di-ammonium hydrogen phosphate salts. The precipitation process employed was also found to be suitable for the production of sub-micrometre HA/TCP composite powders in situ. The synthesized pure HA and TCP powders were found to be stab...
An Approach to the Modeling of Physical Ageing in Rubbery Polymers Dal, Hüsnü (2006-03-29) The oxidation reactions responsible for physical ageing are thermally activated processes and yield cross-linking similar to the vulcanization process and chain-scission reactions. Chain scission, is responsible for the relaxation behaviour under constant stretch, whereas cross-linking is responsible for hardening of the material. The decrease in the stretch at break upon cross-linking motivates the so called network alteration proposed in this contribution.
