...Clays and Clay Minerals, Vol. 49, No. 5, 410–432, 2001. BASELINE STUDIES OF THE CLAY MINERALS SOCIETY SOURCE CLAYS: INFRARED METHODS ´ JANA MADEJOVA AND PETER KOMADEL Institute of Inorganic Chemistry, Slovak Academy of Sciences, SK-842 36 Bratislava, Slovakia INTRODUCTION Infrared (IR) spectroscopy has a long and successful history as an analytical technique and is used extensively (McKelvy et al., 1996; Stuart, 1996). It is mainly a complementary method to X-ray diffraction (XRD) and other methods used to investigate clays and clay minerals. It is an economical, rapid and common technique because a spectrum can be obtained in a few minutes and the instruments are sufficiently inexpensive as to be available in many laboratories. An IR spectrum can serve as a fingerprint for mineral identification, but it can also give unique information about the mineral structure, including the family of minerals to which the specimen belongs and the degree of regularity within the structure, the nature of isomorphic substituents, the distinction of molecular water from constitutional hydroxyl, and the presence of both crystalline and non-crystalline impurities (Farmer, 1979). The interpretation of the absorption spectra of the Source Clays in the middle-IR (MIR) region (4000– 400 cm 1) given here follows those of Farmer and Russell (1964), Farmer (1974a, 1979) and Russell and Fraser (1994). In addition, reflectance spectra in the near-IR (NIR) region (11,000–4000 cm 1), where overtones...

If this occurs, many things like other chemicals or cold temperatures can easily irritate the airways. Symptoms may include shortness of breath, tightness in the chest and wheezing. {Reactive Airways Dysfunction Syndrome (RADS)}. • Skin Contact: CORROSIVE. The gas irritates or burns the skin. Permanent scarring can result. Direct contact with the liquefied gas can chill or freeze the skin (frostbite). Symptoms of mild frostbite include numbness, prickling and itching.

...ACOM 115 ASSIGNMENTS 2 DISCUSSION ESSAY Topic: Iron deficiency anaemia is a condition which affects many women during pregnancy, in developing countries. Discuss the causes and effects of iron deficiency anaemia on both mother and baby. Introduction Anaemia in pregnancy continues to be a major public health problem and it affects more than 56 million women worldwide (Imdad, & Bhutta, 2012). The world health organisation estimates that 58% of pregnant women in developing countries are anaemic. The greatest burden of anaemia is borne by Asia and Africa where it is estimated that 60% and 52% of women, respectively, are anaemic, and between 1% and 5% are severely anaemic (Guidotti, 2000). Multiple factors lead to anaemia in pregnancy, nutritional iron deficiency is the most common cause of anaemia (Guidotti, 2000). Iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) is due to insufficient iron, without enough iron, human body can't produce enough haemoglobin, which a substance in red blood cells, so that they cannot carry oxygen to body tissues (Mayo Clinic, 2014). Yong children and pregnant and postpartum women are the most commonly and severely affected because of the high iron demands of infant growth and pregnancy. IDA in pregnancy can be a risk factor for preterm delivery and subsequent low birth weight, and possibly for inferior neonatal health (Allen, 2000). This essay will discuss some of the causes and effects of iron deficiency anaemia on both mother and baby. Body...

...coagulants and polymer are the chemicals most for the most part used consequently. Presentation – Phosphorus and nitrogen are supplements that are vital for maritime plant and green development advancement. Most waters regularly contain enough of these supplements to support neighborhood maritime life. In any case, an abundance of these supplements can over-sustain plant and green development advancement such that they make water quality issues. Common sewage contains phosphorus on a very basic level from human stool and mechanical waste. Phosphorus is a particularly risky constituent since it serves as a basic supplement for green development improvement. Right when the phosphorus availability deals with the advancement solicitations of green development, over the top green development blooms can happen. Exactly when the green development go on, they are consumed in an oxygen asking for procedure, as minuscule life forms degenerate them as normal matter. This oxygen hobby can debilitate the separated oxygen supply in the tolerant body, which can execute off fish species and surprise the maritime environment. Typical untreated private wastewater can contain 5-20 mg/L of total phosphorus (Davis and Masten, 2014). The arrivals of treated wastewater can be the most foremost wellspring of phosphorus stacking in the...

...basic structure of chlorites allows for various compositions(Grim,1962). Members are differentiated by substitutions within the octahedral layer and the tetrahedral or octahedral positions of the mica-like layer. The arrangement of hydroxide and 2:1 sheets stacked in the z-direction defines the polytype of chlorite. There are theoretically six possible layer interlayer assemblages in either semi-random or regular "one-layer" polytypes. Of these six polytypes, four have been observed in nature (Partice De Caritat ect. 1993): clinochlore (Mg,Fe2+)5Al(AlSi3O10)(OH)8, chamosite (Fe2+,Mg)5Al(AlSi3O10)(OH)8, nimite (Ni,Mg,Al)6((Si,Al)4O10)(OH)8, and pennanite Mn52+Al(AlSi3O10)(OH)8. Provenance Chlorite is widespread throughout the world, often found in low- to medium-grade regional metamorphic rocks and as a secondary mineral to mafic silicates in igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks. It is an occasional constituent of igneous rocks, in most cases probably forming secondarily by deuteric or hydrothermal alteration of primary ferromagnesian minerals, such as mica, pyroxene, amphibole, garnet, and olivine (Bailey, S. W., 1988). A ubiquitous product of low-grade metamorphism, chlorite influences a wide variety of rocks of different formation age such as in Cambrian basaltic vesicular lavas, early Oligocene sandstones and greywackes with andesitic volcanic clasts (Lopez-Munguira et al., 2002) (Schmidt and Levi, 1999)....
