A permeable rotating-wheel solvent extractor

Column-type device reported employs circular permeable structures of wire mesh screen for extracting solvents from systems with low density differences and low interfacial tensions. Rotating screen wheels of structure fasten to shaft; stationary screen structures are supported by circular bands connected by radial metal arms.

Quantitation of buried contamination by use of solvents

An investigation was made to determine (1) sporicidal properties of amine solvents that solubilize silicon resins, (2) recovery properties of a silicon potting compound (RTV 41) used in spacecraft, and (3) viability of spores during chemical curing of the potting compound. Results show that: (1) spores do remain viable during RTV 41 silicon potting chemical curing, and (2) spore recovery from cured silicon potting compound RTV 41 is very high when silicon rubber is dissolved in butylamine and series dilution with benzene prior to plate curing.

Quantitation of buried contamination by use of solvents

A method for determining the quantity of buried contamination using solvents is presented. A nonsporocidal method with which high spore recoveries are achievable from silicone coatings and potting compounds was developed. An extension of the method to silicon potting compound RTV 60 is reported. It is stated that spores remain viable during chemical curing of silicone potting compounds and more than ninety percent of the spore population is recoverable by amine dissolution and proper plating techniques.

Crystal growth in fused solvent systems

Research is reported on the growth of electronic ceramic single crystals from solution for the future growth of crystals in a microgravity environment. Work included growth from fused or glass solvents and aqueous solutions. Topics discussed include: crystal identification and selection; aqueous solution growth of triglycine sulphate (TGS); and characterization of TGS.

Crystal growth in fused solvent systems

The successful nucleation of bismuth germanate, B12GeO20 on a high quality seed and the growth of regions of single crystals of the same orientation of the seed are reported. Lead germanate, Pb5Ge3O11 was also identified as a ferroelectric crystal with large electrooptic and nonlinear optic constants. Solvent criteria, solvent/development, and crystal growth are discussed, and recommendations for future studies are included.

Automated solvent concentrator

Designed for automated drug identification system (AUDRI), device increases concentration by 100. Sample is first filtered, removing particulate contaminants and reducing water content of sample. Sample is extracted from filtered residue by specific solvent. Concentrator provides input material to analysis subsystem.
