Two other fuels, FeSi₇ and CaSi₂, gave similar thermal analysis curves when used instead of silicon. There were considerable differences in the burning rates for binary mixtures of these fuels compared to silicon. Ternary systems with two fuels or two oxidants showed that only limited interaction occurs during thermal analysis. The use of a second fuel or oxidant did, however, modify the burning behaviour considerably. Other techniques used in this study to probe the details of the reaction processes included bomb calorimetry, measurement of thermal conductivities, infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and scanning electron micoscropy.]]> Wed 12 May 2021 17:32:43 SAST ]]> The synthesis and assessment of thioxanthone- and xanthone- derived compounds as hosts for application in host-guest chemistry https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:36665 Wed 12 May 2021 17:09:11 SAST ]]> Organic Chemistry: PAC 223 https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:17803 Thu 13 May 2021 08:16:34 SAST ]]> Practical and scalable synthesis of N-Alkyl-N,N'Diacylhydrazines https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:10406 Thu 13 May 2021 07:03:18 SAST ]]> Investigation of the potential separation of isomers and related compounds using host compound (2R,3R)-(−)-2,3-dimethoxy-1,1,4,4-tetraphenylbutane-1,4-diol https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:30432 Thu 13 May 2021 06:47:35 SAST ]]> Organic Chemistry: PAC 121 https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:17802 Thu 13 May 2021 06:04:12 SAST ]]> Chemical studies of necic acid analogues https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:4425 Thu 13 May 2021 05:19:00 SAST ]]> The effects of organic perturbants on the structure of soluble collagen https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:3846 Thu 13 May 2021 05:15:29 SAST ]]> Solvent-free synthesis of bisferrocenylimines and their coordination to rhodium (I) https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:10393 Thu 13 May 2021 03:56:55 SAST ]]> Synthesis and conformational studies of indolizines https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:4367 Thu 13 May 2021 03:39:40 SAST ]]> Novel camphor derivatives as potential asymmetric alkylation auxiliaries https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:10372 Thu 13 May 2021 03:30:44 SAST ]]> Adventures in natural product chemistry : inaugural lecture delivered at Rhodes University https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:660 Thu 13 May 2021 02:13:37 SAST ]]> Assessment of the host potential of TETROL [(+)-(2R,3R)-1,1,4,4- tetraphenylbutane-1,2,3,4-TETROL] for the separation of isomers and related compounds https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:29817 m-toluidine > o-toluidine) and the cresols (p-cresol > m-cresol > o-cresol). Each guest mixture was selected based on data from experiments using either the industrial significance of its separation or because the mixture would add to the knowledge base of the host compound’s preferences and selectivities. In a separate study, TETROL and its derivative, (–)-(2R,3R)-2,3-dimethoxy-1,1,4,4- tetraphenylbutane-1,4-diol (DMT), were also allowed to compete for the inclusion of the guest cyclohexanone, where TETROL demonstrated superior ability. This host, in addition, showed potential for the separation of cis- and trans- 2-methylcyclohexanol.]]> Thu 13 May 2021 01:55:11 SAST ]]> Reactions towards the synthesis of the uncommon P57 cymarose moiety https://vital.seals.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:21136 Thu 13 May 2021 01:23:57 SAST ]]>
