  • Handbook of Viscosity: Volume 1

    Organic Compounds C1 to C4
    • 1st Edition
    • Carl L. Yaws
    • English
    This series provides engineers with liquid and gas viscosities for the major organic compounds as a function of temperature. The graphs are arranged by chemical formula to provide ease of use; many of them cover the full range from melting point to boiling point to critical point. Common units are used, but each graph displays a conversion factor to provide English units.

  • Annual Reports on NMR Spectroscopy

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 29
    • English
    Over recent years, no other technique has grown to such importance as that of NMR spectroscopy. It is used in all branches of science where precise structural determination is required and where the nature of interactions and reactions in solution is being studied. Annual Reports on NMR Spectroscopy has established itself as a means for the specialist and non-specialist alike to become familiar with new applications of the technique in all branches of chemistry, including biochemistry, and pharmaceutics. This volume focuses on theoretical aspects of NMR nuclear shielding and on applications of NMR to polymer science.

  • Annual Reports in Medicinal Chemistry

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 29
    • James A. Bristol
    • English
    This serial continues to combine regular updates of significant research in medicinal chemistry with emerging research in biological science destined to impact the discovery and development of new medicinal agents.

  • Advances in Metal-Organic Chemistry

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 3
    • Bozzano G Luisa
    • English

  • Catalyst Deactivation 1994

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 88
    • G.F. Froment + 1 more
    • English
    Catalyst Deactivation 1994 was an expansion of earlier, highly successful symposia. The objective of the symposium was to promote a scientific approach of the phenomenon of catalyst deactivation which will contribute to the development of catalysts which are less subject to structural transformations and more resistant to poisons and coke formation. These aspects are dealt with in 12 plenary lectures, 48 oral presentations and 35 poster papers, which were critically selected from an impressive response from some 30 countries.Both fundamental and applied aspects were covered. The deactivation of catalysts in important industrial processes like fluid bed catalytic cracking hydrotreatment, hydrodesulfurization... catalytic reforming, hydrodenitrogenation... steam reforming, hydrodemetallization... hydrocracking, Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, propane dehydrogenation, phthalic anhydride synthesis received considerable attention. Mechanisms of poisoning, sintering and coking were further investigated and modelled and new experimental techniques for the characterization and the quantification of deactivation were also introduced.

  • Lanthanides/Actinides: Chemistry

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 18
    • G.R. Choppin + 3 more
    • English
    This volume of the Handbook is the second of a three-volume set of reviews devoted to the interrelationships, similarities, differences, and contrasts of the lanthanide and actinide series of elements. In particular this book considers the comparisons of the chemistry of the lanthanide and actinide elements.The lanthanide and actinide elements present a multitude of challenging physical and chemical problems resulting from the involvement of open F-shell electronic configurations. This is made clear in the chapters composing these volumes which cover topics such as: the experimental and theoretical aspects of solution absorption and luminescence spectra to reveal similarities and differences in the two f-series; the methods and effectiveness of separation by solvent extraction, ion exchange and necessary accompanying reactions; the comparative thermochemical and oxidation-reduction properties of lanthanide and actinide materials; interrelationships and comparisons of the halides; an examination of the relative hydration and hydrolysis behaviors of the lanthanides and actinides.

  • Annual Reports in Organic Synthesis 1994

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 94
    • Philip M. Weintraub
    • English
    This handy reference tool is an organized annual review of synthetically useful information. It abstracts synthetic reactions from the major chemistry journals of the past year and includes all reactions and methodsthat are new and reasonably general. The reactions are presented in a convenient pictorial format designed for rapid visual retrieval of information.The Journal of the American Chemical Society has aptly described this publication as an"aid to the harassed organic chemist who cannot keep up with the never-diminishing stream of new primary literature"and hails it"an outstandingly good buy."

  • Advances in Heterocyclic Chemistry
