What is Sodium 2-Hydroxyethanesulfonate?
"Tiangong Kaiwu" is a scientific and technological masterpiece written by Song Yingxing in the Ming Dynasty. The book has detailed records of many processes, technologies, products, etc. However, it does not mention "nickel-based cobalt glyoxylate".
However, according to modern chemical knowledge, nickel-based cobalt glyoxylate is a compound formed by combining nickel with glyoxylic acid and cobalt elements. Nickel, a metallic element, has good corrosion resistance, magnetic properties, and is widely used in many alloys and catalysts. Glyoxylic acid, an organic compound, is often used as a raw material in chemical synthesis and participates in many organic reactions. Cobalt is also a metal element and plays a key role in battery materials, catalysts, etc. The combination of these three nickel-based cobalt glyoxylate may have unique chemical and physical properties, or have potential uses in specific catalytic reactions, material preparation and other fields.
Although "Tiangong Kaiwu" does not cover this object, its book shows the excellent wisdom and practical achievements of the ancients in many technical fields, and preserves precious materials for future generations to explore the development of ancient science and technology. New compounds such as nickel-based cobalt glyoxylate are the product of modern chemical development, reflecting human beings' in-depth understanding and exploration of the material world.
What are the uses of sodium 2-hydroxy ethanesulfonate?
Although the description of the use of borax (that is, borax) in "Tiangong Kaiwu" is not as detailed as that in modern times, it is also involved. Borax was widely used in ancient times, and in metallurgy, it was often used as a flux. Because borax can melt oxides on the surface of metals at high temperatures, it makes metals easy to melt and weld. As it is written in the book, "The method of welding iron has a strange medicine in Western countries. In China, white copper powder is used for small welding, and in large welding, it is hard to hammer and force it together. After a long time, it will never be strong. Therefore, there are forgers in the west of the cannon, but in China, it is only for smelting and casting." Although borax is not directly stated in welding, the principle of borax is similar in metallurgical fusion.
In the field of alchemy and pharmaceuticals, borax also has its uses. Ancient alchemists believed that borax has special chemical properties, which can participate in the chemical reactions in the refining process of medicinal pills and change the properties of medicinal pills. Although the alchemy books such as "Baopuzi Jindan" do not detail the specific application of borax, it can be inferred that it is one of the mineral raw materials. In the pursuit of longevity pill refining, or adjust the reaction temperature and promote material fusion.
Furthermore, in ceramic firing, borax can be used as a glaze additive. It can reduce the melting point of the glaze, make the glaze surface more uniform and smooth, and enhance the gloss and texture of the ceramic. The ancient ceramic production process pursued exquisite glaze color. Borax was added or helped craftsmen achieve this goal, making ceramic products more beautiful and practical.
In summary, borax played an important role in ancient metallurgy, alchemy, and ceramics. With the development of the times, its uses became more extensive and in-depth. However, ancient applications also laid the foundation for later understanding and expansion.
How is sodium 2-hydroxy ethanesulfonate prepared?
If the method of making alum (zinc sulfate) in "Tiangong Kaiwu" is to take calamine (zinc carbonate) and coal and place it in a crucible. Prepare the crucible first, and carefully make it with refractory clay to make it solid and heat-resistant. Choose high-quality calamine, grind it into appropriate particles, and choose the best coal, and break it into suitable small pieces.
Mix the two in the crucible in the right proportion, and seal it tightly to prevent impurities from mixing in and gas from escaping. Then, put the crucible in a special stove and calcine it with fierce heat. The stove needs to be carefully constructed and well ventilated, so that the flame evenly wraps the crucible and reaches a high temperature.
When calcining, pay close attention to the heat and time. Sufficient firepower is required to allow the calamine to fully react with the coal. After the reaction is completed, the contents of the crucible are cooled. After that, the obtained product is further processed, or through the processes of grinding, dissolving, filtering, crystallization, etc., to obtain pure alum (zinc sulfate). In this way, according to this ancient method, alum (zinc sulfate) can be obtained. During the operation, all links need to be cautious to obtain high-quality products.
What are the precautions for storing and transporting sodium 2-hydroxy ethanesulfonate?
Mercury-based acetic acid should be paid attention to when it is stored in the environment.
Mercury-based acetic acid is not easy to cause danger when it is exposed to fire or open flames. Therefore, when it exists, it must be destroyed. It is dry and has a good place. It must not be placed in a high-temperature or damp environment, in order to prevent it from being born and dissolving due to the environment, resulting in sexual failure.
Furthermore, this is a toxic substance, and it must be managed to avoid being connected by people and so on. In this way, it is also necessary to follow the standard system. The package must be solid and dense to prevent leakage. And those who are not safe must be familiar with the characteristics of mercury-based acetic acid and the way to do it urgently.
On the way, it is necessary to pay close attention to the severity of the environment. If there is an emergency, take immediate measures. In the event of a leak, do not panic. You need to quickly isolate the area, evacuate people, and notify the relevant personnel before handling it.
In this case, whether there is an emergency or mercury-based acetic acid, it is necessary to adhere to the degree of caution and act according to the conditions of photography in order to ensure safety and avoid accidents.
What are the safety hazards of using sodium 2-hydroxyethanesulfonate?
According to ancient principles, such dangerous things should be hidden in remote, remote and well-connected places.
In addition, it must be placed in an open flame or oxidized room. This room should be well protected, such as fire prevention, explosion prevention and leakage prevention.
The wall and ground should also be specially treated to prevent mercury-based acetic acid from penetrating and corroding. And there should be no crowded places such as dwellings and markets, so as to avoid accidents and endanger people.
In addition, the place where it is stored should not be guarded by people, and there should be no way to enter and exit, and it should be controlled and used. The hidden utensils must also be fastened and sealed to prevent exposure.
Therefore, the storage of mercury-based acetic acid should be kept safe and protected, and it should be equipped with strict management.
