A new cocrystal of pyrazinamide with oxalic acid was prepared mechanochemically and characterized by PXRD, Raman spectroscopy, solid-state NMR spectroscopy, DTA-TG, and SEM. Based on powder X-ray diffraction data the structure was solved. The formation pathway of the reaction was studied in situ using combined synchrotron PXRD and Raman spectroscopy. Using oxalic acid dihydrate the initially neat grinding turned into a rapid self-accelerated liquid-assisted grinding process by the release of crystallization water. Under these conditions, the cocrystal was formed directly within two minutes.
The production and processing of ordinary Portland cement are responsible for nearly 5% of the world C02 emissions. Due to the world’s increasing requirement for building materials, this air pollution is growing up in the next decades. Alternative cement such as geopolymers can reduce these emissions effectively, Conventional geopolymer binders, produced ffom fly ash or metakaolin as aluminosilicate source and water-glass or alkali hydroxide Solutions as activator, are often used and studied. It is known that under appropriate conditions the starting materials form a three-dimensional aluminosilicate structure and create a gel-like matrix, In our case, a silica source from wastewater treatment of chlorosilane production and solid sodium aluminate as starting materials are initiated to harden by water. This procedure is known as “just add water” or “one-part” geopolymer formulation. These composites have significant advantages for use on construction site, but their Chemical structure is not extensively analyzed. In this work, a well known one-part geopolymer is investigated by 'H and 27A1 magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (MAS NMR) spectroscopy. Furthermore, it is shown that overlapping NMR lines can resolved with echo experiments and
The need to improve the sustainability and the need for innovation in the cement industry has brought to light the practice of using additives to the cement in order to decrease CO2 emissions in industrial plants and increase the quality of cement in terms of durability and performance. Currently some additives have been employed as granulated blast furnace slag, limestone and pozzolan. The additives give mortar and concrete larger energy efficiency, gain in durability and resistance, contributing to buildings with slender structures and cheaper and durable maintenance. Besides natural pozzolan can be used artificial ones, as calcined clays, and over a range of amorphous aluminates and silicates waste, with highly reactive function as a binder material in the presence of water and calcium hydroxide. Calcined kaolinite clays were characterized using various techniques such as XRD, thermal analysis, and NMR observing 27Al and 29Si nuclei. The results showed that there is a structural modification of the samples, from crystalline to amorphous phases with the increasing of temperature in the calcination process. There is an improving in the reactivity of calcined clays by the range of 600ºC to 750ºC temperature in the reaction with calcium oxide, according to data from Chapelle test, indicating the possibility of using them as additives for cement and confirming their pozzolanic potential.
The stability of different theophylline cocrystals under milling conditions was investigated by competitive cocrystal reactions. To determine the most stable cocrystal form under milling conditions, the active pharmaceutical ingredient theophylline was either ground with two similar coformers (benzoic acid, benzamide, or isonicotinamide), or the existing theophylline cocrystals were ground together with a competitive coformer. All competitive reactions were investigated by in situ powder X-ray diffraction disclosing the formation pathway of the milling processes. On the basis of these milling reactions, a stability order (least to most stable) was derived: tp/bs < tp/ba < tp/ina < bs/ina.
Characterization of faujasite-type zeolites with different Si/Al ratios using 29Si (27Al)Trapdor NMR
(2015)
One-part geopolymers were synthesized from two different silica materials (a silica-rich residue from chlorosilane production and a commercial microsilica) and sodium aluminate at three different SiO2/Al2O3 ratios and a nominal water/solids ratio of 0.5. The degree of reaction of the silica in the cured geopolymers (i.e. the fraction of silica dissolved to form aluminosilicates and minor products) was determined using two different methods: chemical attack with HCl to dissolve the reaction products and evaluation of peak areas of 29Si MAS NMR spectra. It was found that the degree of reaction of the silica decreases with increasing the silica content of the starting mix, and that it is almost constant after 1 day of curing and almost independent from the kind of starting silica. From the results of the NMR-based method, the mean SiO2/Al2O3 ratio of the reaction products (aluminosilicates and minor products) can be estimated to be ca. 2.0, nearly independent of the starting composition of the geopolymers. The dissolution method is biased, but of sufficient precision to be useful for following changes of the degree of reaction. Major crystalline phases in the cured geopolymers are zeolite A and/or hydrosodalite. Depending on the starting composition, the relative amounts of these zeolites vary; additionally, sodalite (only for the residue from chlorosilane production with >1 wt% Cl-), faujasite, and zeolite EMT can appear in the geopolymers. The 29Si and 27Al MAS NMR results indicate mainly Si(4Al) and Al(4Si) sites, in line with the presence of zeolite A, hydrosodalite, sodalite, and geopolymeric gel of comparatively low SiO2/Al2O3 ratio.
Geopolymer-zeolite composites were synthesized using a silica-rich industrial byproduct from chlorosilane production and sodium aluminate. Pastes were cured at 80 °C and 80% RH, and subsequently dried in two different climates: at 23 °C and 50% RH, and under vacuum. 1H MAS, 23Na MAS and 29Si MAS NMR and XRD measurements were performed after the drying procedures as well as after subsequent aging. Zeolite Na-A was found beside traces of faujasite-type zeolite and zeolite EMT as major crystalline phases in the cured composites; the fraction of geopolymeric gel in the reaction products was determined to be ~18% on a molar basis. Various water species could be distinguished using 1H MAS and 1H-29Si CP MAS NMR, applying rotorsynchronized echo experiments. The largest fraction of the pore water resides in the α-cages of the zeolite Na-A and in the geopolymeric gel; in addition, water exists in the β-cages of the zeolites and adsorbed at sodium ions. The water species in α-cages and in the pores of the geopolymeric gel exhibit slightly different chemical shifts of 4.7 ppm and 4.9 ppm, respectively, in the 1H MAS NMR spectra. Changes of the water content in the geopolymer pores of differently dried samples were observed and led to slightly varied chemical shifts in the 29Si MAS NMR spectra too. Measurements after more than 500 days revealed no significant aging effects of the composites, which confirm their chemical stability.
