MODERN TRENDS IN CHEMICAL REACTION DYNAMICS – PART II EXPERIMENT AND THEORY


Free Download Kopin Liu, "MODERN TRENDS IN CHEMICAL REACTION DYNAMICS – PART II: EXPERIMENT AND THEORY "
English | ISBN: 9812389237 | 2004 | 540 pages | PDF | 23 MB
The field of chemical reaction dynamics has made tremendous progress during the last decade or so. This is due largely to the development of many new, state-of-the-art experimental and theoretical techniques during that period. It is beneficial to present these advances, both theoretical and experimental, in a review volume (Parts I and II). The primary purpose of this review volume is to provide graduate students and experts in the field with a rather detailed picture of the current status of advanced experimental and theoretical research in chemical reaction dynamics. All chapters in these two parts have been written by world-renowned experts active in such research.

Synchrotron Radiation Techniques in Industrial, Chemical, and Materials Science


Free Download Synchrotron Radiation Techniques in Industrial, Chemical, and Materials Science By Joel D. Oliver (auth.), Kevin L. D’Amico, Louis J. Terminello, David K. Shuh (eds.)
1996 | 259 Pages | ISBN: 1461376769 | PDF | 12 MB
The individual papers that comprise this monograph are derived from two American Chemical Society (ACS) Fall National Meetings that focused on the current uses of synchrotron radiation (SR) research techniques. The first Symposium was held in Washington, DC, in August 1994, and the second convened in Chicago, IL, in August 1995. The intent of these symposia was to present a broad overview of several current topics in industrial, chemical, and materials-based SR research to a chemically inclined audience. The SR techniques covered were divided roughly into the three general fields of industrial, chemical, and materials science for this purpose. Included within these four categories are environmental, geologic, atomic/molecular, analytical, solid state physics, surface science, and biological applications of SR. There is little doubt that structural biology and environmental science are the largest growth areas in SR research as this monograph goes to press. The spirit of these symposia was to bring together the expert synchrotron radiation user with new and potential users of SR techniques. There are now a preponderance of particle storage rings, located throughout the world, devoted exclusively to the production of SR. There have been great improvements in the particle accelerators and storage rings from which SR emanates. These newest third generation SR sources are the result of the successful collaboration between SR users and accelerator physicists which has made a reality out of experiments never before possible.

Shock Waves @ Marseille II Physico-Chemical Processes and Nonequilibrium Flow


Free Download Shock Waves @ Marseille II: Physico-Chemical Processes and Nonequilibrium Flow By John H. Kiefer (auth.), Professor Dr. Raymond Brun, Professor Dr. Lucien Z. Dumitrescu (eds.)
1995 | 467 Pages | ISBN: 3642788343 | PDF | 18 MB
This volume deals with chemical kinetics of high-temperature shocked flows. The first papers describe the kinetics of many processes in gases and gas mixtures behind shock waves in shock tubes, including decomposition, oxidation, dissociation and various reactions, with the general purpose of measuring corresponding rate constants by various diagnostic techniques. Other papers treat problems of induced combustion behind shock paves propagating in combustible media. Theoretical and experimental studies on nonequilibrium flows in external and internal aerodynamics, including vibrational relaxation, dissociation and reaction kinetics and radiation effects, and the analysis of ionization phenomena induced by shock waves and of the behavior of shock waves in ionized media such as plasma jets, discharges or magnetic fields are represented.This volume is for chemists and chemical engineers working in reaction kinetics and combustion fields, plasma physicists, astrophysicists and also aerodynamicists simulating or computing relaxing reactive flows.

Rapeseed Chemical Composition, Production and Health Benefits


Free Download Monica White, "Rapeseed: Chemical Composition, Production and Health Benefits "
English | ISBN: 1634842278 | 2016 | 163 pages | PDF | 3 MB
Rapeseed is the traditional name of a large winter or spring annual oilseed crop from the Brassicaceae family, and is related to mustard, cabbage, broccoli, among others. As one of the leading oilseed crops, rapeseed is primarily grown for its oil content. This book presents research on the chemical composition, production and health benefits of rapeseed. The first chapter reviews the literature on rapeseed/canola derived bioactive peptides with emphasis on strategic production and processing methods as well as antihypertensive, antitumor, hypocholesterolemic, and multifunctional properties. Chapter two summarises recent advances on the extraction processes of rapeseed-derived protein and bioactive compounds and reviews the possibilities as well as the challenges that these ingredients face regarding skin care, food and nutraceutical applications. Chapter three examines physical properties of fat filling produced with oil industry by-products sunflower and rapeseed lecithin in comparison with widely used emulsifier- soy lecithin. Chapter four provides a comprehensive summary about contribution of mass spectrometric methods to analysis of rapeseed, reflecting their irreplaceability to the field of ""Food control."" The final chapter studies antioxidant activity in transgenic canola plants grown in vitro.

Gas Phase Chemical Reachtion Systems consists of edited papers presented at the International Symposion Gas Phase Chemical ReactionSystems:Experiments and Models 100 Years after MaxBodenstein, held at Heidelberg. It is divided into six sections, reflecting the diversity of the topics discussed. Part I is devoted to experimental reaction dynamics studies employing laser and molecular-beam techniques. Part II is the theoretical counterpart of Part I. Part III summarizes the current status of the Bodenstein (H2+I2) "textbook reaction" with experimental and theoretical results. Part IV shows the different approaches for the calculation of state-specific and thermal rate data. Part V includes papers from the "heterogeneous reactions" session and Part VI is devoted to the mathematical modelling of turbulence, reactive flows and complex chemical reaction systems.

Frontiers of Chemical Dynamics


Free Download Frontiers of Chemical Dynamics By W. H. Miller (auth.), Prof.Dr. Ersin Yurtsever (eds.)
1995 | 406 Pages | ISBN: 9401041539 | PDF | 32 MB
This volume contains the lectures presented at the NATO Advanced Study Institute (ASI) on " Frontiers of Chemical Dynamics ", held in the Club AIda, Kerner, Turkey, from 5th September to 16th September 1994. The Kerner area, famous for its pristine beaches and craggy mountains provided an excellent atmosphere for an intellectually and socially active meeting. The first class facilities of Club AIda allowed the participants to concentrate on the scientific activities without any outside interferences and disturbances. The main objective of the meeting was to bring experts of chemical dynamics to discuss problems from both experimental and theoretical points of view. The organizing committee has helped a great deal to collect an impressive list of lecturers, although there were quite a number of other scientists whom we would have liked to invite. Unfortunately, the number of lecturers is limited and we had to leave out some of them. The selection of the lecturers from a very long list was a difficult process and those who are approached in our very first attempt were all known for giving very good lectures. The purpose of the ASI’s are mainly educational even though they may be at a very high level and it is essential to keep in mind the pedagogical aspects of the meeting without sacrificing the scientific quality. This point was underlined several times in our communications with lecturers.

English | 2002 | pages: 325 | ISBN: 0880489545 | PDF | 1,6 mb
During the past 60 years, the number of chemical disasters worldwide from military, occupational, and environmental sources has risen at an alarming rate. The profound controversy surrounding many chemicals makes objective analysis nearly impossible. Yet now more than ever-with the daily exposure to a wide range of chemicals and the increased threat of chemical terrorism-it is critical that we understand the role of chemicals in causing psychiatric illness.
