TL;DR: In this article, the effect of concentration of sodium thiosulfate as the reducing agent was investigated to determine conditions for optimum yield strength and the gelation time and behavior which has never been published before.
Abstract: Existing reducing agents for cross-linking polymers are expensive and toxic and mostly limited for water shut off applications. A gelation study was performed on a safer, cheaper, more soluble, and short-lived gel by cross-linking polyacrylamide and chromium as a cross-linking agent using a rheometer and bead-pack porous media. The effect of concentration of sodium thiosulfate as the reducing agent was investigated to determine conditions for optimum yield strength and the gelation time and behavior which has never been published before. For a fixed minimum concentration (for the gel to form) of polyacrylamide and sodium dichromate, the gel yield strength vs. sodium thiosulfate concentration showed a somewhat bell-shaped curve initially increasing, reaching a peak at 2000 ppm, and then starting to decrease. The gelation formed by sodium thiosulfate was comparatively weak and short lived as compared to the ones formed by other reducing agents. Gel started to form instantaneously, reached a peak in 2 h, began to decrease, and then stabilized at 40 cp. The mobility reduction trends were similar to the yield strength curve. The short-lived gel could be useful to improve the waterflood mobility ratio far away from the wellbore without compromising on ease of injectivity.

TL;DR: In vivo, pretreatment with CCE was found to provide significant protection against sodium dichromate-induced nephrotoxicity by inhibiting lipid peroxidation, preserving normal antioxidant activities, and protecting renal tissues from lesions and DNA damage.
Abstract: Environmental and occupational exposure to chromium compounds, especially hexavalent chromium, is widely recognized as potentially nephrotoxic in humans and animals. The present study aimed to assess the efficacy of cactus (Opuntia ficus-indica) against sodium dichromate-induced nephrotoxicity, oxidative stress, and genotoxicity. Cactus cladodes extract (CCE) was phytochemically studied and tested in vitro for its potential antioxidant activities. Additionally, the preventive effect of CCE against sodium dichromate-induced renal dysfunction in a Wistar rat model (24 rats) was evaluated. For this purpose, CCE at a dose of 100 mg/kg was orally administered, followed by 10 mg/kg sodium dichromate (intraperitoneal injection). After 40 days of treatment, the rats were sacrificed, and the kidneys were excised for histological, lipid peroxidation, and antioxidant enzyme analyses. The phenol, flavonoid, tannin, ascorbic acid, and carotenoid contents of CCE were considered to be important. Our analyses showed that 1 mL of CCE was equivalent to 982.5 ± 1.79 μg of gallic acid, 294.37 ± 0.84 μg of rutin, 234.78 ± 0.24 μg of catechin, 204.34 ± 1.53 μg of ascorbic acid, and 3.14 ± 0.51 μg of β-carotene. In vivo, pretreatment with CCE was found to provide significant protection against sodium dichromate-induced nephrotoxicity by inhibiting lipid peroxidation, preserving normal antioxidant activities, and protecting renal tissues from lesions and DNA damage. The nephroprotective potential of CCE against sodium dichromate toxicity might be due to its antioxidant properties.

Abstract: Novelty: a method for the detection of high-level methanol or/and ethylene glycol in alcoholic drinks is disclosed. Purpose: to completely convert alcohols to carbon dioxide and ethanol to liquid ethanoic acid. Detection process: the sample of the alcoholic drink is introduced in a vessel-reactor containing hexavalent chromium trioxide with traces of thick sulfuric acid solution and sodium dichromate; the aforementioned elements are supported on low-granularity zeolite. Being in contact with the material of the reactor, the alcohols of the drink react very quickly on the basis of the below-mentioned reactions (see chemical formula). The reactions describe the very fast Jones oxidation of the alcohols of the sample. The produced carbon dioxide is drawn through a tube to the detection vessel containing a sodium hydroxide solution and rose-colored phenolphthalein. Due to the pH reduction caused by carbon dioxide entering the detection vessel, the colour of the solution disappears.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated croconic acid disodium salt for potential use as Li-ion battery material and found that it is a promising electrode material with a medium to short battery cycle lifetime.
Abstract: We investigated croconic acid disodium salt for potential use as Li-ion battery material. The crystal was shown to be a promising electrode material with a medium to short battery cycle lifetime. We embarked in a thorough computational study based on classical molecular dynamics simulations to characterize this system and identify optimization strategies to improve battery lifetime. Through long-timescale molecular dynamics simulations in the Canonical Ensemble and Isothermal-Isobaric ensembles, we first established that the custom force field that we generated for this system reproduces the known thermodynamics of the Croconic acid disodium salt dihydrate crystal. In a second step, we predict the existence of a quasi-degenerate denser polymorph which is slightly less stable at room temperature and becomes more stable starting T=420K compared to the known crystal structure as determined by X-Ray crystallography. Interestingly, we find that upon adding lithium the system chooses the denser phase even at room temperature. Lithiation of the denser phase leads to moderate volume increases of about 0.75% for each additional 1% lithiation. By extrapolation of the results of the simulations, we conjecture that a phase transition takes place in the very first stages of lithiation. This should initially reduce the volume, resulting in the formation of cracks in the material contributing to a short battery cycle lifetime. We thus propose to assemble batteries based on croconate at an elevated temperature.
