APPLICATIONS OF TITANIUM

Titanium is used extensively in corrosion applications where it is not only most effective but also where it is convenient to use. For example many corrosion problems with alternate materials are related to poor water quality, and especially to the presence of chlorides. Titanium equipment, however, permits the direct use of such waters without special treatments. Many new and rebuilt heat exchangers and condensers for power, desalination and chemical process plants have been constructed with welded thin-walled titanium products. The choice of titanium materials for condenser tubing has been discussed with emphasis on the corrosion resistance of the titanium alloy. Galvanic corrosion can occur if titanium materials are coupled with less corrosion resistant metals. The majority of the metal re­quirements in many chemical plants could be met with titanium alloys. Stainless steels have been largely replaced by titanium in many plants producing and using nitric acid, wet chlorine, chlorine dioxide, chlorates, hypochlorites and chlorides. A considerable amount of titanium is used for the oxidation of many organic compounds. Such processes often involve both reducing and oxidizing conditions. Processing in brine environments at temperatures up to at least 175°C is a major use of titanium. Uses extend to chlor-alkali plants for the production of wet chlorine, caustic, chlorates, perchlorates, and other chlorine chemicals.

The high ohmic and corrosion resistance of titanium's surface film makes electrochemical applications of titanium attractive. A thin active surface film, consisting of platinum, gadolinium oxide or some other material can provide very efficient dimensionally-stable anodes. Such anodes are also used for the production of chlorates, oxygen and hydrogen, electrochemical machining and for recovering metal values for leach liquors, including copper, nickel, cobalt, gold, silver, zinc and manganese. As well a large application is in the copper industry where titanium sheets are used for the cathodic deposition of refined copper. Other metallurgical applications for titanium components include the leaching of copper, uranium, molybdenum, cobalt, manganese, gold, silver and other metal ores. The acid solutions employed are very corrosive but various metallic ions in the solutions inhibit attack and make such operations practical.

The power industries employ titanium extensively as heat exchangers and auxiliary equipment. Other applications are expected to extend such usage, including turbine blading (турбинный лопаточный аппарат), various heat recovery systems, hydrogen storage methods and ocean thermal energy conversion plants*. Numerous other applications of titanium are for water purification plants, deep sea exploration and waste control, including the wet air oxidation of sewage sludge. Certain alloys of Ti show promise for storing nuclear wastes*. Results after 434 days of exposure of synthetic ground water at 25°C show titanium to have a low corrosion rate which decreases with time*. This corrosion resistance is adversely affected by increasing temperature and/or the presence of sulphur. Titanium should also perform well in flue gas scrubbers even if fluorides are present, if desulphurization is achieved with calcium or magnesium compounds. The high strength to weight ratio, corrosion resistance to saline environments, and biocompatibility of titanium materials make pure titanium and selected alloys useful for surgical implants.

ALKALI METALS

The elements of the Periodic Group I A, lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium and caesium are called the alkali metals. These are alike in having a single electron in the outermost shell; since this electron is far removed from the rest of the atom, it is easily lost. Therefore, from the chemical point of view, these elements are the most active metals known. As we progress from lithium toward caesium, a striking increase in radius of the atom is to be observed.

Properties. Alkali metals have relatively low melting points and boiling points. They are soft enough to be easily cut with a knife, the softest being caesium. The latter is soft enough to be moulded between fingers. They are also very light, the lightest being lithium, sodium and potassium. They are so light as to float on water.

The untarnished surfaces of these metals may be seen to have a silvery lustre, but they rapidly tarnish and lose their lustre. The metals are usually stored in oil so as to exclude air. When stored in this way, they usually do not have a metallic appearance because of a surface coating.

The alkali metals are too active to be found free in na­ture. They are known to react with a number of non-metals, forming binary products, e. g. with chlorine to form chlo­rides, with bromine to form bromides and with sulphur to form sulphides.

The alkali metals are such active metals as to displace hydrogen from water, producing gaseous hydrogen and the hydroxide of the metal in solution. Potassium, rubidium, and caesium develop enough heat in this reaction to ignite the liberated hydrogen.

2 Na + 2 H2O == H2 + 2 NaOH

They also displace hydrogen from acids, but the reaction is too violent to be of importance.

Reacting with oxygen, lithium yields the simple oxide, sodium, on the other hand, yields the peroxide unless the temperature is kept relatively low. When heated in air sod­ium and potassium readily take fire, each metal forming a mixture of oxides. The ordinary temperature is sufficient to ignite rubidium and caesium.

To prepare sodium hydroxide, a solution of sodium car­bonate is added to slaked lime, calcium hydroxide, suspended in water. When exposed to air sodium hydroxide absorbs moisture and carbon dioxide, so it is used to remove both moisture and carbon dioxide from the air.

8.  Read the text without a dictionary. Try to guess the meaning of the italicized words.

The Group I Elements Li, Na, K, Rb and Cs

The group I elements are all univalent, and have a re­markable affinity for oxygen; caesium and rubidium ignite spontaneously if placed in dry oxygen at room temperature. The chemical activity of the alkali metals appears to increase steadily in passing from lithium to caesium.

The metals are obtained by electrolysis of fused salts or salt mixtures. Because there is only one valence electron per metal atom, the binding energies in the close packed metal lattices1 are relatively weak and the metals are consequently very soft and have low melting points.

Liquid alloys of alkali metals are known, the most im­portant being the Na—К alloys. All of the alkali metals are highly electropositive and react with most other elements directly. The metals are found to dissolve in mercury to form amalgams. The group I metals are soluble in liquid ammonia to give solutions which are blue when dilute. They react directly with most non-metals to give one or more binary compounds. Owing to the highly electropositive character of the alkali metals the various oxides are readily hydrolyzed by water.

PRINCIPLES OF LIQUID CHROMATOGRAPHY

Proteins are involved in all the essential activities that constitute life. Some of them serve as structural supports, others are involved in defence against infection, still others are involved in the internal signal system of living matter, and a large group, the enzymes, govern all metabolic activities. All these different functions are determined by the chain of amino acids that constitutes the so-called primary structure. Since the living body uses twenty different types of amino acid for making a chain, a very large number of different amino acid chains can be manufactured. During the manufacture of a protein by a living organism, the chain of amino acids folds upon itself spontaneously. At first, the chain associates with itself to form a coil or a more or less planar configuration, the type and degree of which depends on stabilizing forces between the peptide bonds of the chain. Secondly, the coils and sheets fold to form a three-dimensional structure. Several such structures, called subunits, then associate to form the final protein. The folding and the association of the subunits depend on attractive and repulsive forces between the side chains of the amino acids. Nature also sometimes adds non-protein groups to the final protein. The final three-dimensional structure of a protein is vital for its biological function, and even a simple amino acid substitution may cause a total structural collapse. The forces involved in stabilizing this critical structure of a protein are: hydrogen bonds, electrostatic attraction between charged amino acid side chains and hydrophobic interactions between side chains.

Although the strength of any one of these forces is weak, the large number of them adds up to a considerable total strength. However, the dissociating forces applied from the environment of the protein are nearly equal to the associating ones and this makes protein structures very sensitive to environmental changes. All the associative forces mentioned above are dependent upon water as the solvent, on pH, ionic strength and temperature. Additives that change the nature of water may have a disastrous effect on protein structure. The properties of native proteins that may be used for separating them are all found at the protein surface. Some areas are hydrophobic in nature, while others are hydrophilic. Different surface areas may carry charged groups. The very size of a protein is also a discriminating property. The most specific property of a protein is, of course, its biological activity, often associated with a specific ability to bind a certain ligand. Methods based on the properties are the following: gel permeation chromatography (separation by size), ion exchange chromatography, reversed phase chromatography. When selecting conditions for any of these methods, one has to consider the requirements for protein stability, namely aqueous solvent, ionic strength, pH and temperature.

The principle instrumental set-up needed for performing liquid chromatography experiments is very simple and universal. It is a column containing the chromatographic material in the form of small particles, which are referred to as the stationary phase. The solvent, called the eluent or the mobile phase, is pumped through the particle bed. Sample components dissolved in the mobile phase can reversibly interact with the stationary phase in a continuous manner. A solvent delivery system is connected to the column in order to feed it with fresh mobile phase. The system consists of a pump, a solvent reservoir and sometimes a solvent-mixing device. After passing through the column, the separated sample components are monitored by a detector, before ending up as separate fractions in the fraction collector. In order to follow the protein of interest during purification, one has to use a specific property of that protein. This is usually its biological activity, which is often measured stepwise after the separation.
