Inorganic Materials Aims and scope

Abstract

Solid acid ammonium terephthalates were synthesized. Their structure and IR spectrum were shown to remain unchanged at nitrogen contents down to 3.48 wt %, indicating the existence of a compound of variable composition with the general formula (NH4) x  H2 – x  (OOCC6H4COO) (x = 0.4–1.7).
