from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Adolf Josifowitsch Rabinovich ( Russian Адольф Иосифович Рабинович ; born March 24 . Jul / 5. April  1893 . Greg in Odessa ; † 19th September 1942 in Kazan ) was a Ukrainian - Russian chemist , physical chemist , colloid chemist and university lecturer .

Life

Rabinowitsch, son of a lawyer , graduated from the 2nd Odessa grammar school in 1911 with a gold medal. He then studied chemistry at the New Russian University in Odessa, graduating in 1915. He then worked in a chemical factory in Odessa as a laboratory assistant. In 1917 he became a lecturer at the Department of Chemistry at the Neurussian University. In 1920 he received his master's degree.

In 1923 Rabinowitsch moved to the Karpov Institute for Physical Chemistry in Moscow , where he was head of the laboratory for colloid chemistry . He examined together with its employees WA Kargin the stability and mechanism of coagulation lyophobic colloids, the reaction mechanism of two colloidal systems and the then unexplored class of metal - organosols . Rabinowitsch was co-editor of the Russian journal Journal for Physical Chemistry and other journals. From 1930 he also taught as a professor at the Lomonossow University in Moscow . In 1933 he became a corresponding member of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR (AN-SSSR) . From 1938 he headed the chair for colloid chemistry at Lomonossow University. After the start of the German-Soviet War , he was evacuated to Kazan , where he died.

Rabinowitsch's research focused on the stability of colloidal systems and photochemistry . He examined colloid coagulation by adding electrolytes . He developed the adsorption theory of photographic development . He explained the sensitization by dyes as well as the effects of adsorption on absorption spectroscopy .
