    2007, 41 (2):  41-43. 
    Abstract ( 671 )   PDF (526KB) ( 728 )   Save
    An UV-spectrophotometry determination method for pyrogallic acid content was studied. Test solution of pyrogallic acid was prepared by adding formic acid as antionxidative stabilizer, thus the measuring instability due to the oxidability of pyrogallic acid was overcome. The appropriate addition of formic acid (0.1 mol/L) into test solution was 10 mL. UV absorption peak of the test solution was determined at 266 nm. The stability of determination value, linear relationship between concentration and UV-absorbance under test condition were proved, and error of measurement was estimated. The study results indicated that this new method could be used for quantitative determination of pyrogallic acid in production for its simpleness, cheapness, veracity and stability.

    2007, 41 (2):  44-46. 
    Abstract ( 716 )   PDF (509KB) ( 732 )   Save
    The tea waste powder with different sizes as an additive was used to urea-formaldehyde (UF) resin, and the effects of the tea waste powder sizes and amount on the free formaldehyde content of UF resin, the formaldehyde emission, and bond strength of UF resin bonded plywood were studied in this paper. The experimental results indicated that the tea waste powder as an additive to UF resin could reduce its free formaldehyde content and reduce the formaldehyde emission of UF resin bonded plywood; the tea waste powder with much less size was easily mixed with UF resin and acted much more effective; the tea waste as an additive to UF resin in a proper amount did not decrease the bond strength of plywood.

    Abstract ( 681 )   PDF (1060KB) ( 776 )   Save
    It was found that bamboo fiber could be effectively dissolved in formic acid solution containing a catalyst. Cellulose of bamboo fiber was hydrolyzed during dissolution. Formic acid could be cleanly recycled for using. The solid product of soluble sugars was obtained. Bamboo fiber started to be swelled after 0.5 h of addition to formic acid solution. It was gradually dissolved after 1.0 h and the color of solution changed to light green black. It was basically dissolved after 2.0 h and the color of solution gradually became darker. It was completely dissolved after 4.0 h. After 6.0 h of reaction at 60℃ treatment, the solid product containing glucose, cellobiose, cellotriose, cellotetrose, cellopentose and cellohexaose was obtained from the reaction system. The yield of glucose was 54.5%.

    2007, 41 (2):  31-34. 
    Abstract ( 633 )   PDF (617KB) ( 748 )   Save
    This paper illustrates the reaction of larch bark tannin extracts with sulfite and sodium hydroxide and the tests of its solution viscosity, MW-distribution and thin-layer chromatography. It shows that the solution viscosity drops and the relative molecular mass reduces with narrow distribution. The high sulfitated larch bark tannin extracts are more available to decrease the solution viscosity than the alkali treated extracts. The modified larch bark tannin extracts can be used in production of bakelite bond.

    The reaction activity of catalysts on the synthesis of biodiesel from different oils was studied.By the analysis of GC and chemical method, the best constitution of catalysts was obtained.The results show that the alkaline material was the best catalyst to catalyze the transesterification of oils with acid value below 10 due to their best catalytic result and short reaction time,but for the oils with acid value above 10, neither the acid nor the base, could catalyze the transesterification in a short time.The catalyst NG made in this research, under the condition of temperature 180℃,time 2 h and catalyst dosage 0.1%, had high catalytic activity. The yield of 93% was obtained. The catalyst NG had profound practical significance in subcritical fluid technique.
