Studies on the photocatalytic activity of titanium dioxide
(University of St Andrews, 1986) - ThesisA novel technique for determining the photoactivity of anatase and rutile forms of TiO₂ has been developed. This involves measurement of the rate of oxygen-uptake in the propan-2-ol/propanone dehydrogenation system, which ... -
An examination of some aromatic molecules by the method of electron impact
(University of St Andrews, 1957) - ThesisThe thesis begins with an account of the behaviour of molecules on electron impact and explains how bond dissociation energies may be deduced from a study of ionization processes. The experimental work was carried out with ... -
Pyrolysis of diphenylmethane and fluorene
(University of St Andrews, 1953) - ThesisThis thesis is divided into four main sections. In the 'Introduction' an attempt has been made to give, by a historical approach, a brief account of some of the advances which have been made towards a solution of the general ... -
Excited state properties of 1-naphthol and its sulphonates
(University of St Andrews, 1973) - ThesisThe transient absorption spectrum of 1-naphthol was first sought by flash photolysis at higher acidities than had been previously investigated. While no transient absorption was observed for l-naphthol itself, strong ... -
The development of a quinquaquadrupole mass spectrometer - the study of ion-molecule reactions in the gas phase using multiple quadrupole instruments.
(University of St Andrews, 1991) - ThesisThe field of quadrupole mass spectrometry has grown enormously since the early 1980's. The invention of the triple quadrupole mass spectrometer led to the development of tandem quadrupole mass spectrometers of many different ...
