A new PVC membrane electrode for $UO_2^{2+}$ ion based on 2,2'-[1,2-ethanediyl bis (nitriloethylidene)]bis(1-naphthalene) as a suitable ionophore was prepared. The electrode exhibites a Nernstian response for $UO_2^{2+}$ ion over a wide concentration range ($1.0{\times}10^{-1}-1.0{\times}10^{-7}$M) with a slope of 28.5 ${\pm}$ 0.8 mV/decade. The limit of detection is $7.0{\times}10^{-8}$M. The electrode has a response time of < 20 s and a useful working pH range of 3-4. The proposed membrane sensor shows good discriminating abilities towards $UO_2^{2+}$ ion with regard to several alkali, alkaline earth transition and heavy metal ions. It was successfully used to the recovery of uranyl ion from, tap water and, as an indicator electrode, in potentiometric titration of $UO_2^{2+}$ ion with Piroxycam.

A short and efficient synthesis, solvent extraction and potentiometric measurements of new thiazole-containing naphtho-crown ethers are reported. The naphthalene moiety enhances the ammonium ion selectivity over potassium ion. The selectivity of ${NH_4}^+/K^+$ follows the trend $3\;{\approx}\;2\;>\;1$, indicating that the differences in conformational changes of 2 and 3 in forming ammonium complexes affect little on the resulting ammonium/potassium extraction selectivity ratio. The ammonium ion-selective electrodes were prepared with noctylphenyl ether plasticized poly(vinyl chloride) membranes containing 1-4 the effect of one naphthalene unit introduced on either right (2) or left (3) side of thiazolo-crown ether on their potentiometric properties (e.g., ammonium ion selectivity over other cations, response slopes, and detection limits) were not apparent. However, the ammonium ion selectivity of 1, 2 and 3 over other alkali metal and alkaline earth metal cations is 10-100 times higher than that of nonactin.

Photodissociation of nitrous oxide near 203 nm has been studied by a combination of high resolution slice ion imaging technique and (2+1) resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI) spectroscopy of $N_2(X^1{{\Sigma}_g}^+)$ via the (a″$^1{{\Sigma}_g}^+$) state. We have measured the recoil velocity and angular distributions of $N_2$ fragments by ion images of the state-resolved photofragments. The $N_2$ fragments were highly rotationally excited and the NN-O bond dissociation energy was determined to be 3.635 eV. Also, we investigated the photofragment images from the photodissociation of $N_2O$ clusters with various stagnation pressures.

The efficiency of decontamination of model spent ion exchange resins, contaminated with magnetite and hematite, with mineral acid solutions, and using electro-decontamination, was evaluated. It has been shown that effective hematite dissolution occurs in concentrated mineral acid solutions. However, the use of direct current increases the decontamination efficiency of spent ion exchange resins contaminated with hematite. It is determined that with increasing voltage and acid concentration, the dissolution efficiency of hematite deposits increases and can exceed 99%. It has been shown that hematite dissolution is accompanied by secondary adsorption of radionuclides due to ion exchange, which can be removed with sodium nitrate solutions.

The triazacrown compound, 1,7-dioxa-4,10,13-triazacyclopentadecane trihydrobromide salt (Na3O2-3HBr) was synthesized. And this compound was used to synthesize the new ion exchanger, which combined with Merrifield peptide resin. This new ion exchanger had a capacity of 3.2 meq/g dry resin. And the distribution coefficients of alkali and alkaline earth metal ions on this ion exchanger in the various concentrations of hydrochloric acid were determined. The ion exchange behaviors of alkali and alkaline earth metal ions in the various hydrochloric acid concentrations are, also, discussed.

A PVC membrane electrode for silver ion based on a new cone shaped calix[4]arene (CASCA) as membrane carrier was prepared. The electrode exhibits a Nernstian response for $Ag^+$ over a wide concentration range ($1.0{\times}10^{-1}-8.0{\times}10^{-6}$M) with a slope of 58.2 {\pm}$ 0.5 mV per decade. The limit of detection of the sensor is $5.0{\times}10^{-6}$M. The sensor has a very fast response time (~5 s) in the concentration range of ${\leq}=1.0{\times}10^{-3}$ M, and a useful working pH range of 4.0-9.5. The proposed sensor displays excellent discriminating ability toward $Ag^+$ ion with respect to common alkali, alkaline earth, transition and heavy metal ions. It was used as an indicator electrode in potentiometric titration of $Ag^+$ with EDTA and in direct determination of silver ion in wastewater of silver electroplating.

The hydrophobic interaction leading to the formation of ion-pair between $MB^+$ and $TPB^-$ was investigated spectroscopically by varying the medium with the addition of 1,A-dioxane or urea. Beyond 0.01 mole fraction of 1,A-dioxane in water or above 2.0M urea the ion-pair appeared to be completely dissociated into individual ions. The ion-pair was not observed in common organic solvents and the absorption maxima of $MB^+$ were correlated relatively well with the ${\pi}^{\ast}$-scale.
