INFLUENCE OF A HYDROPHOBIZER ON THE PROPERTIES OF EXPERIMENTAL BENTONITE-CONTAINING BIPOLAR MEMBRANES

Experimental samples of bipolar ion-exchange membranes were obtained by applying liquid sulfocation exchanger LF-4SK containing bentonite clays treated with stearic acid to an anion-exchange membrane-substrate with quaternary ammonium groups MA-41. The effect of the amount of added bentonite (1, 2, 3 wt%) on the characteristics of membranes was studied. Silicon and hydroxyl of the included bentonite accelerate the dissociation of water molecules, which leads to increasing the concentration of hydrogen and hydroxyl ions during bipolar electrodialysis. Surface modification of bentonite particles with stearic acid improves the dispersion of the clay in the polymer solution. The physico-mechanical characteristics of experimental ion-exchange membranes containing bentonite treated with stearic acid are compared with a membrane containing natural untreated bentonite. The total exchange capacity, density, moisture capacity, as well as tensile strength and relative elongation were determined. The injection of a hydrophobizer into the membrane leads to a decrease in moisture content, an increase in the total exchange capacity and density of the cation-exchange layer compared to a membrane containing bentonite in its original form. The conversion of sodium sulfate (concentration 0.5 mol/dm3) was carried out with experimental bipolar ion-exchange membranes. The use of a bipolar membrane containing bentonite treated with stearic acid (3%) in the cation-exchange layer leads to an increase in the productivity of the process and a decrease in energy costs compared to a commercially available heterogeneous ion-exchange membrane with similar functional groups and not containing catalytic additives. A scheme for obtaining experimental bipolar membranes is proposed, which consists of the following stages: preparation of bentonite; treatment of bentonitewith stearic acid; preparation of anion-exchange membrane-substrate MA-41; coating the membrane-substrate with of a cation-exchange layer.

Polyurethane/Bentonite/Chitosan Blend for Improved Thermal and Protection Microorganisms for Paint Application

In this study polyurethane synthesis was carried out using the pre-polymer method using the reaction of Toulena Diisocyanate (TDI) with oleic acid-based palm oil polyols. To provide heat resistance properties for coating paint material, add bentonite (B) and chitosan (K) to polyurethane samples. The concentrations of bentonite and chitosan used were 1% b / b, 2% b / b and 3% b / b, respectively. Palm oil-based oleic acid polyol samples were analyzed for chemical compound structure using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) obtained by O-H group at a wavelength of 3437.15 cm-1. Preparation of bentonite and chitosan purification was done by adding cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide solution to bentonite solution and CH3 3 COOH 2% solution and NaOH into chitosan solution, successfully increasing the d-spacing layer with the acquisition of 1.144 nm to 1.513 nm in bentonite and 1.117 nm to 1.475 nm in chitosan and an increase in the value of heat resistance is evidenced by the results of observations using XRD and Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA).

Effect of bentonite modified by silane on rubber blends properties

The presented paper deals with the preparation of bentonite modified by silane and its application into polymer matrix. Natural bentonite was modified with 3-(Trimethoxysilyl) propyl-methacrylate in two different solutions. These two solutions had the same composition (ethanol, water and 3-(Trimethoxysilyl) propyl-methacrylate) but in one solution, pH was modified. These bentonites modified by silane were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The modified bentonites were mixed into rubber matrix as partial replacement of commonly used filler – carbon black of the N339 type. The polymer blends were investigated from the aspect of the rheological and curing characteristics (minimum torque ML, maximum torque MH, optimum time of cure t(c90), processing safety of blend ts,). Moreover, the quality of the silanization reactions was investigated. Measurements were done using PRPA 2000.

Inhibition of gastric and duodenal proteases in the treatment of haemorrhage from peptic ulcer. I. An experimental study of bentonite and other protease inhibitors.

The author suggests that the intermittent character of peptic ulcer bleeding depends on a sequence of clot formation and clot lysis by digestive enzymes, and that intragastric administration of adequate enzyme-inhibitors will support spontaneous haemostasis. Studies of simultaneous inhibition of pepsin and pancreatic proteases by various substances, suggest that bentonite, a clay earth mineral, has exceptional properties. It prevents lysis of standard clots by gastric juice and by duodenal aspirates in vitro, and, in animal experiments (Shay rats), has pronounced antipeptic ulcer-protective effect. A preparation of bentonite used in subsequent clinical studies by Amdrup & Olesen (1) is described.
