  • small angle neutron scattering from solutions of low equivalent weight organic salts in d2o
    The Journal of Physical Chemistry, 1995
    Co-Authors: Patience C. Ho, R Triolo, James S. Johnson
    Abstract:

    Small-angle neutron scattering from D{sub 2}O solutions of a series of organic salts, ranging from sodium toluenesulfonate to sodium triisopropylbenzenesulfonate, has been measured. Evidence of aggregation was found, at least at high concentrations, in all cases. The patterns were interpreted by the mean Spherical Approximation, and estimates of the size of the species are presented. Aggregate sizes increase with increase in equivalent weight. Addition of toluene increases aggregation number. A few measurements on solutions of sodium cyclohexylane carboxylates indicate that aggregates are somewhat smaller than those of aromatic salts of about the same number of carbons. 47 refs., 9 figs., 4 tabs.

  • experimental and molecular dynamics studies of dysprosium iii salt solutions for a better representation of the microscopic features used within the binding mean Spherical Approximation theory
    Journal of Physical Chemistry A, 2006
    Co-Authors: Alexandre Ruas, Pierre Turq, Jean-pierre Simonin, Philippe Guilbaud, Christophe Den Auwer, Christophe Cartier Dit Moulin, Philippe Moisy
    Abstract:

    This work is aimed at a predictive description of the thermodynamic properties of actinide(III) salt solutions at high concentration and 25 °C. A new solution of the binding mean Spherical Approximation (BIMSA) theory, based on the Wertheim formalism, for taking into account 1:1 and also 1:2 complex formation, is used to reproduce, from a simple procedure, experimental osmotic coefficient variation with concentration for three binary salt solutions of the same lanthanide(III) cation:  dysprosium(III) perchlorate, nitrate, and chloride. The relevance of the fitted parameters is discussed, and their values are compared with available literature values. UV−vis/near-IR, time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy experiments, and molecular dynamics (MD) calculations were conducted for dilute to concentrated solutions (ca. 3 mol·kg-1) for a study of the microscopic behavior of DyCl3 binary solutions. Coupling MD calculations and extended X-ray absorption fine structure led to the determination of rel...

  • uranyl vi nitrate salts modeling thermodynamic properties using the binding mean Spherical Approximation theory and determination of fictive binary data
    Journal of Physical Chemistry B, 2006
    Co-Authors: Alexandre Ruas, Pierre Turq, Lesser Blum, Jean-pierre Simonin, Olivier Bernard, Barbara Caniffi, Philippe Moisy
    Abstract:

    This work is aimed at a description of the thermodynamic properties of highly concentrated aqueous solutions of uranyl nitrate at 25 °C. A new resolution of the binding mean Spherical Approximation (BIMSA) theory, taking into account 1-1 and also 1-2 complex formation, is developed and used to reproduce, from a simple procedure, experimental uranyl nitrate osmotic coefficient variation with concentration. For better consistency of the theory, binary uranyl perchlorate and chloride osmotic coefficients are also calculated. Comparison of calculated and experimental values is made. The possibility of regarding the ternary system UO2(NO3)2/ HNO3/H2O as a “simple” solution (in the sense of Zdanovskii, Stokes, and Robinson) is examined from water activity and density measurements. Also, an analysis of existing uranyl nitrate binary data is proposed and compared with our obtained data. On the basis of the concept of “simple” solution, values for density and water activity for the binary system UO2(NO3)2/H2O are proposed in a concentration range on which uranyl nitrate precipitates from measurements on concentrated solutions of the ternary system UO 2(NO3)2/ HNO3/H2O. This new set of binary data is “fictive” in the sense that the real binary system is not stable chemically. Finally, a new, interesting predictive capability of the BIMSA theory is shown.

  • Experimental determination of water activity for binary aqueous cerium(III) ionic solutions: application to an assessment of the predictive capability of the binding mean Spherical Approximation model.
    The journal of physical chemistry. B, 2005
    Co-Authors: Alexandre Ruas, Pierre Turq, Jean-pierre Simonin, Philippe Moisy
    Abstract:

    This work is aimed at a description of the thermodynamic properties of actinide salt solutions at high concentration. The predictive capability of the binding mean Spherical Approximation (BIMSA) theory to describe the thermodynamic properties of electrolytes is assessed in the case of aqueous solutions of lanthanide(III) nitrate and chloride salts. Osmotic coefficients of cerium(III) nitrate and chloride were calculated from other lanthanide(III) salts properties. In parallel, concentrated binary solutions of cerium nitrate were prepared in order to measure experimentally its water activity and density as a function of concentration, at 25 °C. Water activities of several binary solutions of cerium chloride were also measured to check existing data on this salt. Then, the properties of cerium chloride and cerium nitrate solutions were compared within the BIMSA model. Osmotic coefficient values for promethium nitrate and promethium chloride given by this theory are proposed. Finally, water activity measure...

  • transport coefficients of aqueous dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide solutions comparison between experiments analytical calculations and numerical simulations
    Journal of Chemical Physics, 2004
    Co-Authors: Marie Jardat, Serge Durandvidal, N Mota, Pierre Turq
    Abstract:

    We study dynamical properties of ionic species in aqueous solutions of dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide, for several concentrations below and above the critical micellar concentration (cmc). New experimental determinations of the electrical conductivity are given which are compared to results obtained from an analytical transport theory; transport coefficients of ions in these solutions above the cmc are also computed from Brownian dynamics simulations. Analytical calculations as well as the simulation treat the solution within the framework of the continuous solvent model. Above the cmc, three ionic species are considered: the monomer surfactant, the micelle and the counterion. The analytical transport theory describes the structural properties of the electrolyte solution within the mean Spherical Approximation and assumes that the dominant forces which determine the deviations of transport processes from the ideal behavior (i.e., without any interactions between ions) are hydrodynamic interactions and e...

  • transport equations for concentrated electrolyte solutions reference frame mutual diffusion
    Journal of Chemical Physics, 2002
    Co-Authors: Jeanfrancois Dufreche, Olivier Bernard, Pierre Turq
    Abstract:

    Transport coefficients of dissociated electrolytes in aqueous solution are studied in the framework of the primitive model of ionic solutions in which the solvent is a dielectric continuum. Simple explicit expressions are obtained by using a combination of Smoluchowski equation for the dynamics and the mean Spherical Approximation (MSA) for the equilibrium pair correlation function. The case of symmetrical and dissymmetrical electrolytes is examined. In the case of the mutual diffusion, a reference-frame correction, that can be obtained from density measurements has to be taken into account for molar concentrations. The combined Smoluchowski/MSA theory of the primitive model is found to be self-consistent since it is able to describe simultaneously the different transport and equilibrium properties up to high concentrations (1–2 mol l−1).
