The reduction of NO by CO on Pt has been extensively investigated in the past since it helps to eliminate NO of the exhaust gas of cars. However, the dissociation of NO in this reaction and the deactivation of the NO/CO reaction on Pt-supported catalysts still need to be discussed. In this work, the reduction of NO wi…

Abstract The clay mineralogy of an oxisol-saprolite overlying serpentinite and underlying basalt was studied with different techniques to evaluate the clay mineral transformation that occurred and to understand the origin of Fe 3+ -rich smectite. The saprolite zone of the oxisol, up to 30 m thick, contains smectites o…

Abstract The deuteration technique was used to assign unknown infrared (IR) bands of Ge-bearing talcs. Procedures to achieve partial or complete H/D replacement in synthetic Ge-bearing (Mg, Ni and Co)-talcs have been investigated. From the spectral shift of IR absorption bands in the 4000–300 cm -1 region resulting fr…

A model of the ice proton system taking into account quantum-mechanical tunneling of protons along hydrogen bonds has been formulated and investigated. When the tunneling amplitude is small the quantum ground state of the proton system is degenerate, like the classical ground state. At higher tunneling amplitudes, how…

Abstract The influence of sodium oleate additives on processing and morphology of polypropylene ‐ co ‐polyamide (PP/CPA) mixture melts has been investigated. It is shown that sodium oleate is located in the interphase of the components and acts at small additives (up to 3 wt%) as an interfacial tension agent, improvin…

This study proposes a new approximating formula for calculating gamma-ray buildup factors in multilayer shields. The formula combines the buildup factors of single-layer shields with products and quotients. The feasibility of the formula for reproducing the buildup factors was tested by using point isotropic buildup f…

The structure of a topological dipole (two nematic point defects with opposite charges) is considered theoretically both in an infinite space and in a capillary. It is shown that the Frank elastic energy tends to concentrate within a spheroidal string if the defects are not too far from each other. The string thicknes…

The electronic structure of perovskite manganese oxides is investigated in terms of a Kondo lattice model with ferromagnetic Hund coupling and antiferromagnetic exchange between ${t}_{2g}$ spins using a finite temperature diagonalization technique. Results for the dynamic structure factor are consistent with recent ne…

Abstract The adsorption of DL-alanine at pH 4, 6 and 8 by a soil allophane has been determined. Two sets of experiments were carried out: (1) in which the allophane had been kept in a moist state throughout; and (2) in which the mineral had previously been dried at 50°C. In both instances, the adsorption isotherms sho…
