Fresh cement paste is a suspension consisting of a hydraulic binder (cement), water, and numerous minor components – admixtures. Addition of admixtures aims at specific modification of properties of the fresh cement paste or hardened cementitious building material. Specific admixtures, so-called superplasticizers (SP), are used to improve the flowability of the fresh cement paste with reduced water content. The latter is the starting material for the high-strength concrete. Thus, SPs are essential for the ambitious construction projects.
However, uncontrollable retardation of the setting time in presence of SPs is occasionally observed. Obviously, SPs influence early products of the cement hydration leading to changes in the microstructure development. The hardening is thus delayed, and the quality of the resulting building material suffers. The mechanisms of the admixture action during the hydration process are still intensively investigated [1-7]. A detailed understanding of the admixture effects during the early hydration stage is the key to control and individual adjustment of the cement-based construction materials.
We use the unique combination of the wall-free sample holder and the time-resolved X-ray scattering analysis to achieve the full information about the hydrate phases formed under the influence of admixtures. We use ultrasonic levitator to start the cement hydration in levitated cement pellets [8, 9]. The sample levitation allows collection of the unimpaired information about cement hydrate phases. The most beneficial is the avoiding of the contributions of the sample holder material to the data signal.
We induce the cement hydration by adding water to unhydrated Portland cement during the data acquisition. The full phase composition of the hydrating cementitious system can be gathered in situ using wide angle X-ray scattering (WAXS). During the hydration of cement both crystalline and amorphous hydrate phases are formed. WAXS data contain the information about crystalline phases behind the Bragg reflections, whereas the amorphous hydrates influence the appearance of the background. Application of the data analysis specific for crystalline or amorphous phases is needed. The data quantification by the Rietveld method allows to conclude about the changes of the phase amounts due to the presence of admixture. The calculation of the pair distribution functions allows analysis of the amorphous hydrates. Based on this information, the SP effects and the extent of their involvement into the ongoing reactions can be concluded. A detailed understanding of the complex cement hydration process is envisioned.
Due to its advantages of being a direct comparison method, quantitative NMR spectroscopy (qNMR) becomes more and more popular in industry. While conventional high-field NMR systems are often associated with high investment and operational costs, the upcoming market of permanent-magnet based benchtop NMR systems show a considerable option for a lot of applications. The mobility of these systems allows to bring them more closely to the real production environment, e.g. for at-line quality control.
In this work we present an interlaboratory comparison study investigating the qNMR performance of state-of-the-art benchtop NMR spectrometers. Therefore, BAM prepared two samples of a mixture of NMR reference standards tetramethylbenzene (TMB) and tetrachloronitrobenzene (TCNB) at concentration levels of 200 mM and 10 mM. These “ready-to-use” samples were sent to participant laboratories, which performed analysis on their benchtop NMR equipment of different vendors and fields from 43 to 80 MHz. Raw data was reported back and further investigated by using different data analysis methods at BAM.
After this very first qNMR comparison study of benchtop NMR spectrometers show promising results, following studies are planned to cover more parts of the qNMR process, e.g. sample preparation and weighing, but also data analysis, as commonly done in similar studies for high-field NMR spectroscopy in industry and metrology.
Die NMR-Spektroskopie stellt heutzutage eine der wichtigsten Analysenmethoden in der organischen Chemie dar. Während der Großteil aller Untersuchungen qualitativ mit dem Ziel der Stoffidentifikation und Strukturaufklärung erfolgt, erlangt die quantitative NMR-Spektroskopie (qNMR) zunehmend an Bedeutung in Forschung und Industrie. Der entscheidende Vorteil gegenüber anderen Analysenmethoden liegt in der direkten Proportionalität der Signalfläche zur Anzahl Kernspins im Messvolumen. Dies erlaubt eine kalibrationsfreie Relativquantifizierung. Zur Absolutquantifizierung reicht die Zugabe einer definierten Menge eines vom Analyten unabhängigen NMR-Standards aus.
Trotz dieser Vorteile findet sich die qNMR bislang nur vereinzelt in Normen und Standardverfahren wieder. Zahlreiche Ringversuche in Metrologie und Industrie demonstrieren die Leistungsfähigkeit moderner NMR-Spektrometer und stärken das Vertrauen in die Methode. Die Entwicklung von Validierungskonzepten, sowie die kommerzielle Verfügbarkeit geeigneter zertifizierter Referenzmaterialien erleichtern die Anwendung, insbesondere im zumeist stark regulierten industriellen Umfeld.
Neben etablierten Hochfeld-NMR Spektrometern hat sich in den letzten Jahren ein stark wachsender Markt für kompakte Benchtop-NMR Geräte auf Permanentmagnetbasis entwickelt. Die geringeren Anschaffungs- und Betriebskosten, sowie die einfache Bedienbarkeit erlaubt es auch kleineren Unternehmen in diese Analysenmethode einzusteigen. Weiterhin besteht die Möglichkeit diese mobilen Systeme näher an die Produktion zu bringen, welches von der klassischen Qualitätskontrolle bis hin zur Online-Prozesskontrolle als vollautomatisierter Analysator reicht. Die geringere Feldstärke der Systeme erfordert hier oft den Einsatz modellbasierter Ansätze zur Spektrenauswertung (z.B. Indirect Hard Modeling).
Dieser Beitrag gibt eine Übersicht über aktuelle Anwendungen und Entwicklungen der qNMR von der universellen, hochgenauen Labormethode bis hin zur robusten Anwendung als Online-Analysator im Feld.
X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) spectroscopy is a powerful and widely used tool for material characterization. It is non-destructive, element-sensitive and requires no long-range order of the sample, making it suitable for the investigation of amorphous phases. XAFS includes the X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) and the extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS), providing information about the electronical state of the absorbing atom and the spatial order of the neighboring atoms respectively.
Our new approach presented here is derived from the classical dispersive XAFS setup. The aim is to have a scanningless, stable and reproducible setup for applications, in which dynamic processes occur in the second time scale.
A broad polychromatic beam passes through the sample and is dispersed afterwards by a convexly bent Si (111) crystal. All energies are reflected under different angles and thus spatially separated, allowing a position sensitive detector to record a spectrum over the energy range of the incoming beam in a single shot.
Tests of this setup were performed at the BAMline @ BESSY-II (Berlin, Germany) with different metal foils. First in situ measurements comprised the investigation of the early stages of the zinc(II)2-methylimidazolate (ZIF-8) crystallization. This topic of metal-organic-frameworks (MOF) research is of interest for medical applications. Structural changes with a time resolution of 1 s could be followed. The second dimension of the broad beam can be used for a lateral resolution.
In der Prozessindustrie findet die optische Spektroskopie (z. B. NIR- und Raman-Spektroskopie) als Online-Analytik zunehmend Anwendung zur Überwachung che-mischer Qualitäts¬attribute in der Produktion. Ihr ganzes Potential entfalten die Methoden aber meist nur in Kombination mit einer aufwendigen, multivariaten Kalibrierung. Diese muss alle relevanten Zustände des Systems abdecken und bedarf einer geeigneten Referenz¬analytik. Moderne instrumentelle Analysengeräte weisen eine hohe Empfind¬lich¬keit und Robustheit auf, sind aber dennoch stark von Fehler und Variabilität der Probennahme beeinflusst, was sich auf die Richtigkeit und Qualität des multivariaten Modells auswirkt.
Diese Probleme lassen sich verringern, indem die Referenzanalytik ebenfalls online erfolgt. Eine mögliche Lösung stellt die hochauflösende NMR-Spektroskopie als quanti¬tative Online-Referenzanalytik dar. Insbesondere kom¬pakte NMR-Spektrometer auf Basis von Permanent¬magneten sind für diesen Zweck geeignet. Ausschlusskriterien für herkömmlicher NMR-Systeme, wie der große Wartungs-aufwand (Kryotechnik) und der Platz¬bedarf, werden damit vermieden.
Im Rahmen des EU-Projekts CONSENS wurde die Nutzung einer Online-Referenz¬analytik mit NMR-Spektroskopie am Beispiel einer industriellen Pilotanlage erfolgreich realisiert. Untersuchungsgegenstand war die kontinuierliche Synthese eines Aus¬gangsstoffs für die pharmazeutische Industrie. Die enthaltenen metallorganischen Verbindungen sind für die bisher genutzte HPLC Analytik unzu-gänglich und die Analyse ausgewählter Proben erfolgte nach dem Quenchen der Lösung oft mit einem großen zeitlichen Abstand zur Probennahme. Konzen-trationswerte auf Basis von Online-NMR-Spektren standen hingegen mit einer zeitlichen Auflösung von drei Spektren pro Minute über den gesamten Reaktionsverlauf hinweg zur Verfügung. Außerdem konnten durch die NMR-Spektroskopie intermediär auftretende Spezies erstmal quantitativ bestimmt und diese Daten für die Kalibrierung eines NIR-Spektrometers genutzt werden.
Working towards a comprehensive understanding of introduction pathways, number, and fate of micro¬plastics in the environment, suitable analytical methods are a precondition. Micro-spectroscopic methods are probably the most widely used techniques. Besides their ability to measure single spectra of a particle or fiber, most modern FTIR- and Raman microscopes are also capable of two-dimensional imaging. This is very appealing to microplastics research because it allows to simultaneously characterize the analytes chemically as well as their size (distribution) and shape.
Two-dimensional imaging on extensive sample areas with FTIR-micros¬copes is facilitated by focal plane array (FPA) detectors resulting in large data sets comprised of up to several million spectra. With numbers too large for manual inspection of each individual spectrum, automated data evaluation is inevitable. Identifying different polymers based on the comparison with known reference spectra (library search) has proven to be a suitable approach. For that purpose, FTIR-spectra of common plastics can be collected to create an individual reference library.
To Supplement this ‘targeted analysis’, looking for known substances via library search, an exploratory approach was tested. Principal component analysis (PCA) proved to be a helpful tool to drastically reduce the size of the data set while maintaining the significant information. Subsequently, cluster analysis was used to find groups of similar spectra. Spectra found in different clusters could be assigned to different polymer types. The variation observed within clusters gives a hint on chemical variability of microplastics of the same polymer found in the sample. Spectra labeled according to the respective cluster/polymer type were used to build a classification model which allowed to quickly predict the polymer type based on the FTIR spectrum. Classification was tested on a second, independent data set and results were compared to the spectral library search procedure.
Ziel des Projektes HARFE (Haftfestigkeit Reproduzierbarkeit Festigkeit) war es, eine Er-höhung der Haft- bzw. Klebfestigkeit auf Niedrigenergie-Polymeren (PE, PP, PTFE) zu erreichen. SENTECH realisierte dazu plasmachemische Oberflächenaktivierungen mit O2 und die Abscheidung von Aluminiumoxidschichten (Al2O3) mittels Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD), wobei die Ellipsometrie zum in-situ Monitoring der ALD-Prozesse diente. Die BAM charakterisierte die modifizierten Oberflächen bezüglich der Oberflächenenergie (OFE) und bestimmte die Verbund- bzw. Klebfestigkeit mittels der Zentrifugentechnologie
Over the last few years, there has been a growing interest to apply spectroscopic methods to the agricultural field for better understanding of soil properties and for efficient, sustainable management of arable land. Within the project I4S (intelligence for soil), funded by the BMBF, an integrated system for site-specific soil fertility management is developed, consisting of different sensors like X-Ray fluorescence analysis (XRF), near-infrared spectroscopy (NIR) and laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS). LIBS provides a fast and simultaneous multi-element analysis with little to no sample preparation, which makes it a suitable method for real-time analysis on the field.
The quantification of macro and micro nutrients in soils with LIBS is challenging due to matrix effects, different levels of moisture content and varying grain sizes. First studies revealed that the problems with matrix effects can be overcome by using well characterised soils as reference materials and chemometric tools like Partial Least Squares Regression (PLSR) for calibration.
The next step was to investigate the influence of moisture and grain sizes on the LIBS signal, which is a big issue when measuring directly on the field. The results showed that the LIBS signal decreases exponentially with increasing moisture content, as most of the laser energy is used for vaporising the water. With moisture contents of 30 % or higher almost no signal can be detected. This decrease is more severe for sandy soils than for clay soils. First tests of different grain size distributions indicate that the variation of the LIBS signal increases with growing amounts of larger grains. This results in a higher standard deviation, because of a poorer reproducibility of the plasma formation and plasma characteristic. With the help of chemometric tools the influence of moisture and grain sizes should be implemented in the calibration model for accurate analysis of nutrient composition in agricultural soils.
