Ozone Control in High-Flying Jet Aircraft
More LessTo conserve fuel whenever practicable, and to limit cost increases resulting from world-wide increases in oil prices, passenger aircraft are now flying at higher altitudes than previously. This frequently takes them into the ozone-containing layer of the atmosphere, and when this is drawn into aircraft by air conditioning systems it may cause physical discomfort and irritation to aircrews and passengers. Catalytic decomposition, using a metal supported platinum catalyst, provides an economic practical solution in this problem by reducing to an acceptable level the amount of ozone entering the aircraft cabins.

Platinum Metal Complexes of Substituted Aryl Phosphines
More LessHighlights of the co-ordination chemistry of platinum metal complexes of phosphorus-oxygen chelating agents are described. The ligands of interest all contain the oxygen bearing substituent (methoxy, hydroxy, formyl, carboxy-) ortho to a phosphine on a benzene ring; complexes of these ligands are efficient homogeneous catalysts for hydrogenation, isomerisation and polymerisation reactions. Furthermore, these studies have revealed structural and reactivity patterns which are suggestive of new and improved strategies towards useful catalytic systems.

Platinum Group Metal Hydrides
By F.A.L.Conferences on hydrogen energy and metal-hydrogen systems continue to include significant numbers of contributions concerning hydrides of palladium and other platinum group metals. This article reviews some of the relevant papers presented recently at Colorado Springs.

The Origin of the Platinum Resistance Thermometer
More LessSince the beginning of this century the platinum resistance thermometer has been relied upon as a most convenient means of temperature measurement and control in industrial applications, while its accuracy in precision thermometry has contributed largely to the definition of the International Temperature Scale. Its origin stems, however, from the early years of the costly and hazardous attempts to lay underwater telegraph cables, before even a standard unit of resistance had been generally adopted.
