Polyisobuteneamine. Polyisobuteneamine (PIBA) is a polymer derived from the reaction of polyisobutylene (PIB) with ammonia or primary amines. This polymeric compound is known for its excellent adhesive and dispersant properties and is commonly used as an additive in lubricants, fuel, and other industrial applications.

History of discovery

The history of polyisobuteneamine dates back to the early development and study of polyisobutylene. The first synthesis of polyisobutylene was reported in 1931 by the German chemists Hermann Staudinger and Leonidas Zechmeister, who obtained the polymer through the cationic polymerization of isobutylene. The discovery of polyisobuteneamine followed as researchers began to explore the potential applications of polyisobutylene and its derivatives.

Synthesis

Polyisobuteneamine is synthesized through the reaction of polyisobutylene with ammonia or primary amines in the presence of a catalyst. The reaction takes place at elevated temperatures and pressures. The molecular weight of the resulting polymer can be controlled by adjusting the reaction conditions and the choice of catalyst.

Polyisobutylene (PIB): (CH2=C(CH3)2)n
Ammonia (NH3) or Primary amine (RNH2)

Polyisobuteneamine (PIBA): [-(CH2-C(CH3)2)N(H)-]m

In the chemical formulas above, n represents the degree of polymerization of PIB, R represents a hydrogen atom (in the case of ammonia) or an alkyl group (in the case of primary amines), and m is the degree of substitution of the amine group on the polyisobutylene backbone.

Properties

Polyisobuteneamine is a viscous liquid with a yellow to amber color. It has excellent adhesion and dispersant properties, which are attributed to its polar amine groups and nonpolar polyisobutylene backbone. The unique combination of polar and nonpolar groups allows PIBA to interact with a wide range of materials, making it a versatile additive.

Applications

Polyisobuteneamine is commonly used as an additive in lubricants, fuel, and other industrial applications. Its adhesive and dispersant properties make it particularly useful in enhancing the performance of engine oils, gear oils, and hydraulic fluids. PIBA is also used in fuel additives to improve the combustion process and reduce deposits in the engine. Other applications include the use of PIBA as a corrosion inhibitor, an emulsifier, and a demulsifier in various industrial processes.

Gold(III) acetate. Gold(III) acetate, also known as auric acetate, is a chemical compound of gold and acetic acid. It is a yellow solid that decomposes at 170 °C to gold metal. This decomposition of gold(III) acetate has been studied as a pathway to produce gold nanoparticles as catalysts.

Production and reactions
Gold(III) acetate can be produced by the reaction of gold(III) hydroxide and glacial acetic acid:
Au(OH)3 + 3CH3COOH → Au(CH3COO)3 + 3H2O

It reacts with 2-(p-tolyl)pyridine (tpy) in presence of trifluoroacetic acid to form Au(CF3COO)2(tpy).

Gold(III) sulfide has been claimed as the product when gold(III) acetate is sonicated with cyclo-octasulfur in decalin.

Smolkowski-Laviolette biplane. 

The Smolkowski-Laviolette biplane was a Canadian human-powered biplane designed and built by two Calgary aeronautical engineers, Alvin Smolkowski and Maurice Laviolette, in the 1960s.

Smolkowski and Laviolette were based at the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology at Calgary, and they commenced design of the biplane in December 1960, with a view towards winning the Kremer prize then on offer.

The aircraft had a primary structure made of aluminum alloy, and a secondary structure made of metal tubing, polystyrene, and foam sheets. It was a single-bay biplane, spanning , with struts of metal tubing, and rigged with lift and drag wires. The airfoil section incorporated a deflected trailing edge. Unlike contemporary HPAs, the craft was covered with doped fabric, which incurred a weight penalty. The fuselage was of the pod-and-boom type. The pilot sat in a recumbent position, in a semi-enclosed cockpit, and powered the tractor propeller, positioned at the end of a boom, via a set of bicycle pedals powering a chain drive. Both biplane wings and the propeller were fitted with end-plates, in order to mitigate issues with induced drag. The control system incorporated a T-bar column suspended from the upper-wing, operating the elevator and rudder. There did not appear to be any form of lateral control, however the biplane wings were set at a slight dihedral.

Laviolette departed the project before completion, with Smolkowski continuing alone. The biplane was completed in 1964, and it was reported that even with the support of a grant from a Canadian Aeronautics and Space Institute committee, and material supplied by Alberta aviation clubs, Smolkowski had to work overtime in order to finance the completion of the craft.

When tested, the biplane proved unable to make un-assisted flights, however it did make a number of short flights towed behind an automobile.

Smith System (driving). The Smith System is a defensive driving strategy created in 1952 by Harold L. Smith. Smith's goal was to increase the safety of commercial drivers. After he opened the Safeway Driving School in Detroit in 1948, Smith established the Smith System Driver Improvement Institute in 1952.

The Smith System is built around five driving habits:
 Aim high in steering — stay alert to traffic and dangers
 Get the big picture – be aware of your surroundings
 Keep your eyes moving – constant eye movement helps keep you alert
 Leave yourself an out – do not allow other drivers to box you in
 Make sure they see you – remove assumptions about other drivers

The company remains active, headquartered in Arlington, Texas. The company claims that it has trained drivers from more than half of the Fortune 500 companies.
