TL;DR: In this article, a tentative mechanism for the thermal decomposition in air of Lanthanum(III tris-tartrato lanthanate(III) decahydrate, La[La(C4H4O6)3]·10H2O was proposed.
Abstract: Lanthanum(III) tris-tartrato lanthanate(III) decahydrate, La[La(C4H4O6)3]·10H2O has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, electronic spectral and X-ray powder diffraction studies. Thermal studies (TG, DTG and DTA) in air showed a complex decomposition pattern with the generation of an anhydrous species at ~170°C. The end product was found to be mainly a mixture of La2O3 and carbides at ~970°C through the formation of several intermediates at different temperature. The residual product in DSC study in nitrogen at 670°C is assumed to be a similar mixture generated at 500°C in TG in air. Kinetic parameters, such as, E*, ΔH, ΔS, etc. obtained from DSC are discussed. IR and X-ray powder diffraction studies identified some of the decomposition products. The tentative mechanism for the thermal decomposition in air of the compound is proposed.

TL;DR: In this paper, the properties of chromium and lanthanum complexes were investigated using elemental analysis, IR, reflectance and powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies.
Abstract: The complexes M[La(C2O4)3]⋅xH2O (x=10 for M=Cr(III) and x=7 forM=Co(III)) have been synthesized and their thermal stability was investigated. The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, reflectance and powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies. Thermal investigations using TG, DTG and DTA techniques in air of chromium(III)tris(oxalato)lanthanum(III)decahydrate, Cr[La(C2O4)3]⋅10H2O showed the complex decomposition pattern in air. The compound released all the ten molecules of water within ∼170C, followed by decomposition to a mixture of oxides and carbides of chromium and lanthanum, i.e. CrO2, Cr2O3, Cr3O4, Cr3C2, La2O3, La2C3, LaCO, LaCrOx (2

TL;DR: In this paper, the precursors were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, electronic spectral and powder X-ray diffraction studies and good crystalline nature with monoclinic structures predominates in manganese and NiOLa whereas triclinic structure was found in CoOLa and CuOLa.
Abstract: Heterobimetallic oxalato complex precursors, manganese(II)tetraaquatris(oxalato)lanthanate(III)hexahydrate (MnOLa), cobalt(II)pentaaquatris(oxalato)lanthanate(III)trihydrate (CoOLa), nickel(II)pentaaquatris(oxalato)lanthanate(III)hexahydrate (NiOLa) and copper(II)diaaquatris(oxalato)lanthanate(III)monohydrate (CuOLa) of the type, M3[La(C2O4)3(H2O) m ]2·nH2O have been synthesized in aqueous medium. The precursors were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, electronic spectral and powder X-ray diffraction studies. The good crystalline nature with monoclinic structures predominates in MnOLa and NiOLa whereas triclinic structures were found in CoOLa and CuOLa. The solid-state thermal behaviour of the precursors was explored using TG, DTG and DTA in air. The MnOLa generated a mixture species consisting mainly of MnO2, Mn3O4, Mn5O8, La2O3 and LaMn7O12 at 1000 °C through the formation of several intermediate species at 380 and 570 °C. The studies revealed that CoOLa led mainly to LaCoO3 and La2CoO4 along with some oxides of both the cobalt and lanthanum at 1000 °C. In case of nickel analogue the mixture species identified at 1000 °C are mainly of La2NiO4, La2O3, Ni2O3 and NiO2. In case of CuOLa the product at 1000 °C consisted of La2CuO4, La2Cu2O5 and oxides of copper and lanthanum. The nature of decomposition of the precursors in nitrogen were seen from DSC study and the kinetic parameters i.e., E * , lnk 0, ΔH # , ΔS # and order of reaction of all the steps were evaluated and discussed.

TL;DR: In this article, a thermocouple is used to measure the sample temperature in a Stanton HT-D thermobalance, the bead of which is positioned in or near the sample, depending on crucible design.
Abstract: THE use of thermogravimetric data to evaluate kinetic parameters of solid-state reactions involving weight loss (or gain) has been investigated by a number of workers1–4. Freeman and Carroll2 have stated some of the advantages of this method over conventional isothermal studies. To these reasons may be added the advantage of using one single sample for investigation. However, the importance of procedural details, such as crucible geometry, heating rate, pre-history of sample, and particle size, on the parameters has yet to be fully investigated. It is also necessary to ensure accurate temperature measurement, both for precision and also to detect any departure from a linear heating rate due to endo- or exo-thermic reactions. (The effect of these may be largely eliminated by the use of small samples.) In our present work (using a Stanton HT–D thermobalance) the sample temperature is measured directly by means of a thermocouple the bead of which is positioned in or near the sample, depending on crucible design, the wires of which run down a twin-bore rise rod. The connexion between the end of the thermocouple wires on the balance arm and the terminal block is made by 0.001 in. platinum and platinum/rhodium wires5. It has been shown that these wires do not affect the performance of the balance but act merely as a subsidiary damping. From the terminal block compensated cable leads to the cold junction and a potentiometric arrangement for direct measurement of the thermocouple output.

TL;DR: The No. 10123 1quart "Success" can as discussed by the authors dispenses solvent by finger pressure on the valve, which then closes upon release of the pressure, as indicated in the accompanying figure.
Abstract: use and allows it to dispense no more solvent than is needed when the swab-stick is dipped into it like a pen into an inkwell. Available in 4 oz., 6 oz., and 8 oz. sizes, the price ranges from $3. 50 to $3. 75. This same company also advertises a model No. 10123 1quart "Success" can which dispenses solvent by finger pressure on the valve, which then closes upon release of the pressure, as indicated in the accompanying figure. There is also a plunger can of I-pint size that dispenses solvent by pressure on the plunger. Price for the first type of can is about $8, for the second, about $7.
