TY - CONF A1 - Tiebe, Carlo A1 - Banach, Ulrich A1 - Hübert, Thomas T1 - VDI/VDE-Richtlinie für Multigassensoren N2 - Technische Richtlinien enthalten Empfehlungen sowie Anforderungen zum Stand der Technik zur Aufstellung von Bewertungskriterien und Behandlung wissenschaftlich-technischer Fragen. Sie fördern den Erfahrungsaustausch und Technologietransfer zwischen Entwicklern und Anwendern. In unserem Beitrag stellen wir die Richtlinie VDI/VDE 3518 vor. Diese Richtlinienreihe definiert Begriffe, beschreibt den Aufbau und klassifiziert Multigassensoren (Blatt 1), befasst sich mit den Anforderungen für das Unterscheiden, Erkennen und mengenmäßige Bestimmen von Gemischen gasförmiger Stoffe und die Prüfung von Multigassensoren (Blatt 2) und gibt Anleitung für geruchsbezogene Messungen mit „Elektronischen Nasen“ (Blatt 3). Multigassensoren können als elektronische Nasen in Anlehnung an den biologischen Geruchssinn zur Wahrnehmung und Charakterisierung von Gerüchen eingesetzt werden. Die Spezifik von Multigassensoren besteht darin, dass durch die Wahl und Betriebsweise der Sensoren eine Vielzahl von geeigneten Messsignalen erzeugt werden, aus denen mit mathematischen Verfahren die für die Anwendung gewünschten Informationen extrahiert werden. Dazu ist ein Training der Messeinrichtung mit Proben bekannter Eigenschaften notwendig. Diese Richtlinie soll Herstellern, Anbietern und Nutzern als ein Leitfaden Informationen und Erläuterungen für die korrekte und sichere Arbeit mit Multigassensoren liefern. Sie soll Prüflaboratorien und Anwendern helfen, bei der Beurteilung von Qualitätsmerkmalen einheitlich vorzugehen und dafür gemeinsame Randbedingungen anzugeben T2 - 7.

A1 - Hübert, Thomas T1 - Contribution of Relaxation Effect to the Permittivity of Mg1-xZnxTiO3 Ceramics N2 - This work reported the investigation on the effect of relaxation to the permittivity (epsilon' r ) characteristic of Mg1-x Zn x TiO3 ceramics for x = 0 – 0.5 (MZT0 – MZT0.5) measured from 1 Hz to 330 MHz. Within that frequency range, the relaxation effect that consists of the space charge (SC) and the dipolar (D) polarization mechanisms were identified. The contribution of the D relaxation in MZT0 – MZT0.2 systems extents overall from about 100 Hz to 330 MHz, while that in MZT0.3 – MZT0.5 systems is from 50 kHz to 330 MHz. The remaining frequencies, i.e. from 1 to 90 Hz for MZT0 – MZT0.2 and from 1 Hz to 50 kHz for MZT0.3 – MZT0.5, are attributed to the SC relaxation. The D polarization mechanism provides constant epsilon' r values which vary from (15.4 – 17.0) ± 0.3 throughout the samples. Contribution of the SC polarization mechanism to the characteristic is supported by the simultaneous presence of different content and level of resistivity of the secondary phase of (Mg1-αZnα)2TiO4 in MZT0 – MZT0.2 systems and of (Zn1-αMgα)2TiO4 in MZT0.3 – MZT0.5, along with the presence of the main Mg1-x Zn x TiO3 phase, as a result of the variation of zinc content in the systems.

T1 - Termite resistance of pine wood treated with nano metal fluorides N2 - Fluorides are well-known as wood preservatives. One of the limitations of fluoride-based wood preservatives is their high leachability. Alternative to current fluoride salts such as NaF used in wood protection are low water-soluble fluorides. However, impregnation of low water-soluble fluorides into wood poses a challenge. To address this challenge, low water-soluble fluorides like calcium fluoride (CaF2) and magnesium fluoride (MgF2) were synthesized as nanoparticles via the fluorolytic sol−gel synthesis and then impregnated into wood specimens. In this study, the toxicity of nano metal fluorides was assessed by termite mortality, mass loss and visual analysis of treated specimens after eight weeks of exposure to termites, Coptotermes formosanus. Nano metal fluorides with sol concentrations of 0.5 M and higher were found to be effective against termites resulting in 100% termite mortality and significantly inhibited termite feeding. Among the formulations tested, the least damage was found for specimens treated with combinations of CaF2 and MgF2 with an average mass loss less than 1% and visual rating of “1”. These results demonstrate the efficacy of low water-soluble nano metal fluorides to protect wood from termite attack.

Frost point temperatures tf in the gases ranged from −60 °C to −30 °C, which is equivalent to a vapour mole fraction xv from 10 μmol mol−1 to 376 μmol mol−1. In addition, the generated humidity was determined by using a precision dew point hygrometer as reference. Nonlinear calibration functions were calculated that correlated electric current (sensor signal) and reference humidity. Parameters of functions were tested with one-way analysis of variances (ANOVA) to prove if all used sensors had a similar behavior in the same gas during experiments. Results of ANOVA confirmed that averaged functions can be applied for trace humidity measurement in nitrogen, helium, nitrous oxide, and synthetic air. The calculated functions were negligibly different for nitrogen, helium, and synthetic air. In humidified nitrous oxide, a minor change of parameters was observed due to lower electrical currents. In total contrast to that, the measured sensor signals were significantly higher in humidified hydrogen and each sensor required its own calibration function. The reason was a recombination effect that favoured multiple measurements of water molecules. Nevertheless, it was possible to measure continuously trace humidity in all tested gases by using coulometric sensors with an expanded uncertainty below 2 K (k = 2).

The principle of these sensors is based on water vapour absorption in a hygroscopic layer and its subsequent electrolytic decomposition. The calibration of sensors was performed in the humidity range, expressed as frost point temperature, from −30°C to −80°C . This range is equivalent to volume fractions smaller than 376 µL·L−1. Generated humidity was measured with coulometric sensors and a chilled dew point hygrometer that was used as reference. An empirical non-linear function was found between sensor signal and measured reference humidity. This function consists of two parameters with a measurement uncertainty. Both calibration parameters were checked by means of one-way analysis of variance. It showed that gas specific function can be used for humidity measurement in nitrogen, hydrogen, dinitrogen monoxide, compressed and synthetic air. It is possible to determine trace humidity in all tested gases with an expanded uncertainty less than 2.1 K (coverage factor k=2 ) regarding frost point temperature.
