Considering the poor dispersion and inert ionic conduction ability of carbon nanotubes (CNTs), functionalization of CNTs is a critical issue for their application in polymer electrolyte membranes. Herein, CNTs were functionalized by the polyelectrolyte, chitosan (CS), via a facile noncovalent surface‐deposition method. The obtained CS‐coated CNTs (CS@CNTs) were then incorporated into the CS matrix and fabricated composite membranes. The CS coating can enhance the compatibility between CNTs and the matrix, thus ensuring the homogenous dispersion of CS@CNTs and effectively improved the mechanical properties of the composites. Moreover, the CS coating can make CS@CNTs act as an additional proton‐conducting pathway through the membranes. The CS/CS@CNTs‐1 composite shows the highest proton conductivity of 3.46 × 10 −2 S cm −1 at 80°C, which is about 1.5‐fold of the conductivity of pure CS membrane. Consequently, the single cell equipped with CS/CS@CNTs‐1 membrane exhibits a peak power density of 47.5 mW cm −2, which is higher than that of pure CS (36.1 mW cm −2). 相似文献

The objective of the present study was to develop a predictive model for Photofrin ®-mediated interstitial photodynamic therapy (I-PDT) of locally advanced tumors. Our finite element method was used to simulate 630-nm intratumoral irradiance and fluence for C3H mice and New Zealand White rabbits bearing large squamous cell carcinomas. Animals were treated with light only or I-PDT using the same light settings. I-PDT was administered with Photofrin ® at 5.0 or 6.6 mg kg −1, 24 h drug-light interval. The simulated threshold fluence was fixed at 45 J cm −2 while the simulated threshold irradiance varied, intratumorally. No cures were obtained in the mice treated with a threshold irradiance of 5.4 mW cm −2. However, 20–90% of the mice were cured when the threshold irradiances were ≥8.6 mW cm −2. In the rabbits treated with I-PDT, 13 of the 14 VX2 tumors showed either local control or were cured when threshold irradiances were ≥15.3 mW cm −2 and fluence was 45 J cm −2. No tumor growth delay was observed in VX2 treated with light only ( n = 3). In the mouse studies, there was a high probability (92.7%) of predicting cure when the initial tumor volume was below the median (493.9 mm 3) and I-PDT was administered with a threshold intratumoral irradiance ≥8.6 mW cm −2. 相似文献

Various composite adsorbents based on sulfonated poly(ether ether ketone)/manganese dioxide were prepared for the removal of stable and radioactive ions from contaminated aqueous solution. Batch adsorption experiments revealed superior adsorption capacities of the composite using very low initial concentration of studied elements. Starting with 1000 µg L−1 contaminated solution, the maximum equilibrium metal uptake capacity reached 2.0 mg g−1 for Pb2+, 1.9 mg g−1 for Cd2+, Cu2+ and Zn2+, and 3.7 mg g−1 for Co2+. In addition, the distribution coefficient reached 11,600 mL g−1 for 137Cs and 70,000 mL g−1 for 210Pb. 相似文献

Recombination of minority carriers in the solar cell is a major contributing factor in the loss of quantum efficiency and cell power. While the surface recombination is dealt with by depositing a passivation layer of SiO 2 or SiN x, the bulk recombination is minimized by use of nearly defect-free monocrystalline substrate. In addition, the back-surface field (BSF) effect has been very useful in aiding the separation of free electrons and holes in the bulk. In this study, the key BSF parameters and their effect on the performance of a typical p-type front-lit Si solar cell are investigated by use of Medici, a 2-dimensional device simulator. Of the parameters, the doping concentration of the BSF layer is found to be most significant. That is, for a p-type substrate of 1 × 10 14 cm −3 acceptor concentration, the optimum doping concentration of the BSF layer is 1 × 10 18 cm −3 or more, and the maximum cell power can be increased by 24%, i.e., 25.4 mW cm −2 vs. 20.5 mW cm −2, by using a BSF layer with optimum doping. With regards to the BSF layer thickness, the impact is less. That is, the maximum cell power is about 11% higher at 100 μm than at 5 μm, which translates to an increase of 1.2% μm −1. In practice, therefore, it would be better to rely on the control of the doping concentration than the thickness in maximizing the BSF effect in real Si solar cells. 相似文献

Using relative rate methods, rate constants for the gas‐phase reactions of OH radicals and Cl atoms with di‐ n‐propyl ether, di‐ n‐propyl ether‐d 14, di‐ n‐butyl ether and di‐ n‐butyl ether‐d 18 have been measured at 296 ± 2 K and atmospheric pressure of air. The rate constants obtained (in cm 3 molecule −1 s −1 units) were: OH radical reactions, di‐ n‐propyl ether, (2.18 ± 0.17) × 10 −11; di‐ n‐propyl ether‐d 14, (1.13 ± 0.06) × 10 −11; di‐ n‐butyl ether, (3.30 ± 0.25) × 10 −11; and di‐ n‐butyl ether‐d 18, (1.49 ± 0.12) × 10 −11; Cl atom reactions, di‐ n‐propyl ether, (3.83 ± 0.05) × 10 −10; di‐ n‐propyl ether‐d 14, (2.84 ± 0.31) × 10 −10; di‐ n‐butyl ether, (5.15 ± 0.05) × 10 −10; and di‐ n‐butyl ether‐d 18, (4.03 ± 0.06) × 10 −10. The rate constants for the di‐ n‐propyl ether and di‐ n‐butyl ether reactions are in agreement with literature data, and the deuterium isotope effects are consistent with H‐atom abstraction being the rate‐determining steps for both the OH radical and Cl atom reactions. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

The pulsed laser photolysis‐resonance fluorescence technique has been used to determine the absolute rate coefficient for the Cl atom reaction with a series of ketones, at room temperature (298 ± 2) K and in the pressure range 15–60 Torr. The rate coefficients obtained (in units of cm 3 molecule −1 s −1) are: acetone (3.06 ± 0.38) × 10 −12, 2‐butanone (3.24 ± 0.38) × 10 −11, 3‐methyl‐2‐butanone (7.02 ± 0.89) × 10 −11, 4‐methyl‐2‐pentanone (9.72 ± 1.2) × 10 −11, 5‐methyl‐2‐hexanone (1.06 ± 0.14) × 10 −10, chloroacetone (3.50 ± 0.45) × 10 −12, 1,1‐dichloroacetone (4.16 ± 0.57) × 10 −13, and 1,1,3‐trichloroacetone (<2.4 × 10 −12). © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

This study is concerned with the investigation of the impact of heat flux on the fire hazard and the effective heat of combustion of sunflower seed hull pellets. Pellets produced by pressing common sunflower seed hulls (Helianthus annuus L.) were investigated. The samples were dried on water content of 0 mass% at a temperature of 103 ± 2 °C. The fire hazard and the heat of combustion have been determined via the cone calorimeter and by the testing procedure per ISO 5660-1:2015 at three heat fluxes (25, 35 and 50 kW m−2). The peak heat release rate increases with the increasing of the heat flux from 446 (at a heat flux of 25 kW m−2) to 601 kW m−2 (at a heat flux of 50 kW m−2). The carbon monoxide yield lies in the interval from 82.50 (at a heat flux of 25 kW m−2) to 154.15 g kg−1 (at a heat flux of 50 kW m−2). The effective heat of combustion decreases with the increasing of the heat flux from 15.84 (at a heat flux of 25 kW m−2) to 14.58 MJ kg−1 (at a heat flux of 50 kW m−2). 相似文献

Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is a neglected disease that promotes destructive lesions. Difficulties in treatment are related to accessibility of drugs, resistance and toxicity. Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (APDT) has been emerging as a promising treatment for CL. In this work, we evaluated methylene blue (MB)-mediated APDT (MB-APDT) on Leishmania amazonensis in vitro and in vivo by bioluminescence technique. In vitro, MB-APDT was performed using a red LED (λ = 660 ± 11 nm, 100 mW cm −2) and MB (100 µm ) at different light doses. In vivo, mice were infected and 4 weeks later, randomly divided into three groups: control, APDT 1 (single session) and APDT 2 (two sessions of MB-APDT). MB was used at 100 µm and energy dose was established at 150 J cm −2. Parasite burden, lesion size and pain were evaluated weekly for 4 weeks. In vitro, lethal dose for 90% parasite inactivation was achieved at 48.8 J cm −2. In vivo, although APDT 1 and APDT 2 groups have showed similar parasite burden after 4 weeks, two sessions were clinically better, especially considering the inflammatory process associated to CL. Our findings reinforce MB-APDT as a cost-effective treatment to combat CL. 相似文献

The rate coefficients of the reactions of OH radicals and Cl atoms with three alkylcyclohexanes compounds, methylcyclohexane (MCH), trans‐1,4‐dimethylcyclohexane (DCH), and ethylcyclohexane (ECH) have been investigated at (293 ± 1) K and 1000 mbar of air using relative rate methods. A majority of the experiments were performed in the Highly Instrumented Reactor for Atmospheric Chemistry (HIRAC), a stainless steel chamber using in situ FTIR analysis and online gas chromatography with flame ionization detection (GC‐FID) detection to monitor the decay of the alkylcyclohexanes and the reference compounds. The studies were undertaken to provide kinetic data for calibrations of radical detection techniques in HIRAC. The following rate coefficients (in cm 3 molecule −1 s −1) were obtained for Cl reactions: k(Cl+MCH) = (3.51 ± 0.37) × 10 –10, k(Cl+DCH) = (3.63 ± 0.38) × 10 −10, k(Cl+ECH) = (3.88 ± 0.41) × 10 −10, and for the reactions with OH radicals: k(OH+MCH) = (9.5 ± 1.3) × 10 –12, k(OH+DCH) = (12.1 ± 2.2) × 10 −12, k(OH+ECH) = (11.8 ± 2.0) × 10 −12. Errors are a combination of statistical errors in the relative rate ratio (2σ) and the error in the reference rate coefficient. Checks for possible systematic errors were made by the use of two reference compounds, two different measurement techniques, and also three different sources of OH were employed in this study: photolysis of CH 3ONO with black lamps, photolysis of H 2O 2 at 254 nm, and nonphotolytic trans‐2‐butene ozonolysis. For DCH, some direct laser flash photolysis studies were also undertaken, producing results in good agreement with the relative rate measurements. Additionally, temperature‐dependent rate coefficient investigations were performed for the reaction of methylcyclohexane with the OH radical over the range 273‐343 K using the relative rate method; the resulting recommended Arrhenius expression is k(OH + MCH) = (1.85 ± 0.27) × 10 –11 exp((–1.62 ± 0.16) kJ mol −1/ RT) cm 3 molecule −1 s −1. The kinetic data are discussed in terms of OH and Cl reactivity trends, and comparisons are made with the existing literature values and with rate coefficients from structure‐activity relationship methods. This is the first study on the rate coefficient determination of the reaction of ECH with OH radicals and chlorine atoms, respectively. 相似文献

A high-performance polyimide was prepared by the dipolymerization of 4,4'-diaminobenzanilide (DABA) and pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA). Due to the introduction of rigid planar moieties and amide groups, the polyimide shows outstanding properties, such as high glass transition temperatures (435 °C), excellent thermal stability (T d5%, 542 °C, coefficient of thermal expansion, −3.2 ppm K −1), and superior mechanical properties. Most importantly, the polyimide exhibits excellent barrier properties, with oxygen transmission rate (OTR) and water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) low to 7.9 cm 3 (m 2 day) −1 and 5.1 g (m 2 day) −1, respectively. Wide angle X-ray diffractograms (WAXD), positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy (PALS) and molecular dynamics simulations reveal that the excellent barrier properties are mainly attributed to the high crystallinity, high extent of in-plane crystalline orientation, and low free volume, which are resulted from the rigid planar structure and strong interchain hydrogen bonding. The high-barrier and thermally stable polyimide has an attractive potential application prospect in the fields of micro-electronics encapsulation and high grade packaging industry. 相似文献

Rate coefficients have been determined for the gas‐phase reaction of the hydroxyl (OH) radical with the aromatic dihydroxy compounds 1,2‐dihydroxybenzene, 1,2‐dihydroxy‐3‐methylbenzene and 1,2‐dihydroxy‐4‐methylbenzene as well as the two benzoquinone derivatives 1,4‐benzoquinone and methyl‐1,4‐benzoquinone. The measurements were performed in a large‐volume photoreactor at (300 ± 5) K in 760 Torr of synthetic air using the relative kinetic technique. The rate coefficients obtained using isoprene, 1,3‐butadiene, and E‐2‐butene as reference hydrocarbons are kOH(1,2‐dihydroxybenzene) = (1.04 ± 0.21) × 10 −10 cm 3 s −1, kOH(1,2‐dihydroxy‐3‐methylbenzene) = (2.05 ± 0.43) × 10 −10 cm 3 s −1, kOH(1,2‐dihydroxy‐4‐methylbenzene) = (1.56 ± 0.33) × 10 −10 cm 3 s −1, kOH(1,4‐benzoquinone) = (4.6 ± 0.9) × 10 −12 cm 3 s −1, kOH(methyl‐1,4‐benzoquinone) = (2.35 ± 0.47) × 10 −11 cm 3 s −1. This study represents the first determination of OH radical reaction‐rate coefficients for these compounds. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Int J Chem Kinet 32: 696–702, 2000 相似文献

The reactions between OH radicals and hydrogen halides (HCl, HBr, HI) have been studied between 298 and 460 K by using a discharge flow-electron paramagnetic resonance technique. The rate constants were found to be kHCl(298 K) = (7.9 ± 1.3) × 10 −13 cm 3 molecule −1 s −1 with a weak positive temperature dependence, kHBr (298-460 K) = (1.04 ± 0.2) × 10 −11 cm 3 molecule −1 s −1, and kHI(298 K) = (3.0 ± 0.3) × 10 −11 cm 3 molecule −1 s −1, respectively. The homogeneous nature of these reactions has been experimentally tested. 相似文献

A modified QuEChERS method (Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged, and Safe) for the determination of fifteen phenolic compounds in mustard greens ( Brassica juncea) using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) analysis was developed. The QuEChERS partitioning step and dispersive solid phase extraction (d-SPE) clean-up sorbents were investigated, aimed at phenolic compound extraction and pigment removal, respectively. QuEChERS acetate version combined with 25 mg of diatomaceous earth (DE) and 5.0 mg of graphitized carbon black (GCB) provided the best conditions for sample preparation of the target compounds. Under the optimized conditions, all phenolic compounds showed good linearity (r ≥ 0.99) over the concentration range of 0.1 to 8000 μg kg −1, and the quantification limits were in the range of 0.06–230 μg kg −1. The spectrophotometric analysis showed that the clean-up step promoted a significant removal of chlorophyll, which is the major pigment present in the sample. Furthermore, antioxidant activity analysis was also carried out after the clean-up step and, together with chromatographic data, showed that no significant retention of the phenolic compounds occurs in the clean-up step. Two mustard greens varieties – Southern Giant Curled (SGC) and Florida Broadleaf (FB) - were analyzed with the proposed method. Seven phenolic compounds (4-hydroxybenzoic, p-coumaric, ferulic and sinapic acids, naringenin, apigenin and kaempferol) were found in both varieties, the greatest abundance being for sinapic acid (1261.5 ± 23 μg kg −1 in SGC and 1235.5 ± 26 μg kg −1 in FB) and ferulic acid (2861 ± 24 μg kg −1 in SGC and 3204.5 ± 45 μg kg −1 in FB). 相似文献

The rate constants of the reactions of DO 2 + HO 2 (R1) and DO 2 + DO 2 (R2) have been determined by the simultaneous, selective, and quantitative measurement of HO 2 and DO 2 by continuous wave cavity ring-down spectroscopy (cw-CRDS) in the near infrared, coupled to a radical generation by laser photolysis. HO 2 was generated by photolyzing Cl 2 in the presence of CH 3OH and O 2. Low concentrations of DO 2 were generated simultaneously by adding low concentrations of D 2O to the reaction mixture, leading through isotopic exchange on tubing and reactor walls to formation of low concentrations of CH 3OD and thus formation of DO 2. Excess DO 2 was generated by photolyzing Cl 2 in the presence of CD 3OD and O 2, small concentrations of HO 2 were always generated simultaneously by isotopic exchange between CD 3OD and residual H 2O. The rate constant k1 at 295 K was found to be pressure independent in the range 25–200 Torr helium, but increased with increasing D 2O concentration k1 = (1.67 ± 0.03) × 10 −12 × (1 + (8.2 ± 1.6) × 10 −18 cm 3 × [D 2O] cm −3) cm 3 s −1. The rate constant for the DO 2 self-reaction k2 has been measured under excess DO 2 concentration, and the DO 2 concentration has been determined by fitting the HO 2 decays, now governed by their reaction with DO 2, to the rate constant k1. A rate constant with insignificant pressure dependence was found: k2 = (4.1 ± 0.6) × 10 −13 (1 + (2 ± 2) × 10 −20 cm 3 × [He] cm −3) cm 3 s −1 as well as an increase of k2 with increasing D 2O concentration was observed: k2 = (4.14 ± 0.02) × 10 −13 × (1 + (6.5 ± 1.3) × 10 −18 cm 3 × [D 2O] cm −3) cm 3 s −1. The result for k2 is in excellent agreement with literature values, whereas this is the first determination of k1. 相似文献

Using a relative rate method, rate constants have been measured for the gas-phase reactions of the OH radical with 1-hexanol, 1-methoxy-2-propanol, 2-butoxyethanol, 1,2-ethanediol, and 1,2-propanediol at 296±2 K, of (in units of 10 −12 cm 3 molecule −1 s −1): 15.8±3.5; 20.9±3.1; 29.4±4.3; 14.7±2.6; and 21.5±4.0, respectively, where the error limits include the estimated overall uncertainties in the rate constants for the reference compounds. These OH radical reaction rate constants are higher than certain of the literature values, by up to a factor of 2. Rate constants were also measured for the reactions of 1-methoxy-2-propanol and 2-butoxyethanol with NO 3 radicals and O 3, with respective NO 3 radical and O 3 reaction rate constants (in cm 3 molecule −1 s −1 units) of: 1-methoxy-2-propanol, (1.7±0.7)×10 −15, and <1.1×10 −19; and 2-butoxyethanol, (3.0±1.2)×10 −15, and <1.1×10 −19. The dominant tropospheric loss process for the alcohols, glycols, and glycol ethers studied here is calculated to be by reaction with the OH radical, with lifetimes of 0.4–0.8 day for a 24 h average OH radical concentration of 1.0×10 6 molecule cm −3. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Cavity ring‐down UV absorption spectroscopy was used to study the kinetics of the recombination reaction of FCO radicals and the reactions with O 2 and NO in 4.0–15.5 Torr total pressure of N 2 diluent at 295 K. k(FCO + FCO) is (1.8 ± 0.3) × 10 −11 cm 3 molecule −1 s −1. The pressure dependence of the reactions with O 2 and NO in air at 295 K is described using a broadening factor of Fc = 0.6 and the following low ( k0) and high ( k∞) pressure limit rate constants: k0(FCO + O 2) = (8.6 ± 0.4) × 10 −31 cm 6 molecule −1 s −1, k∞(FCO + O 2) = (1.2 ± 0.2) × 10 −12 cm 3 molecule −1 s −1, k0(FCO + NO) = (2.4 ± 0.2) × 10 −30 cm 6 molecule −1 s −1, and k∞ (FCO + NO) = (1.0 ± 0.2) × 10 −12 cm 3 molecule −1 s −1.

Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) smog chamber techniques were used to investigate the atmospheric chemistry of the isotopologues of methane. Relative rate measurements were performed to determine the kinetics of the reaction of the isotopologues of methane with OH radicals in cm 3 molecule −1 s −1 units: k(CH 3D + OH) = (5.19 ± 0.90) × 10 −15, k(CH 2D 2 + OH) = (4.11 ± 0.74) × 10 −15, k(CHD 3 + OH) = (2.14 ± 0.43) × 10 −15, and k(CD 4 + OH) = (1.17 ± 0.19) × 10 −15 in 700 Torr of air diluent at 296 ± 2 K. Using the determined OH rate coefficients, the atmospheric lifetimes for CH 4–xD x ( x = 1–4) were estimated to be 6.1, 7.7, 14.8, and 27.0 years, respectively. The results are discussed in relation to previous measurements of these rate coefficients. 相似文献

Using a relative rate method, rate constants for the gas-phase reactions of 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol (MBO) with OH radicals, ozone, NO 3 radicals, and Cl atoms have been investigated using FTIR. The measured values for MBO at 298±2 K and 740±5 torr total pressure are: kOH=(3.9±1.2)×10 −11 cm 3 molecule −1 s −1, kO3=(8.6±2.9)×10 −18 cm 3 molecule −1 s −1, k=(8.6±2.9)×10 −15 cm 3 molecule −1 s −1, and kCl=(4.7±1.0)×10 −10 cm 3 molecule −1 s −1. Atmospheric lifetimes have been estimated with respect to the reactions with OH, O 3, NO 3, and Cl. The atmospheric relevance of this compound as a precursor for acetone is, also, briefly discussed. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Int J Chem Kinet: 30: 589–594, 1998 相似文献

The rate constants for the reactions of the OH radicals with a series of aldehydes have been measured in the temperature range 243–372 K, using the pulsed laser photolysis‐pulsed laser induced fluorescence method. The obtained data for propanaldehyde, iso‐butyraldehyde, tert‐butyraldehyde, and n‐pentaldehyde were as follows (in cm 3 molecule −1 s −1): (a) in the Arrhenius form: (5.3 ± 0.5) × 10 −12 exp[(405 ± 30)/T], (7.3 ± 1.9) × 10 −12 exp[(390 ± 78)/T], (4.7 ± 0.8) × 10 −12 exp[(564 ± 52)/T], and (9.9 ± 1.9) × 10 −12 exp[(306 ± 56)/T]; (b) at 298 K: (2.0 ± 0.3) × 10 −11, (2.6 ± 0.4) × 10 −11, (2.7 ± 0.4) × 10 −11, and (2.8 ± 0.2) × 10 −11, respectively. In addition, using the relative rate method and alkanes as the reference compounds, the room‐temperature rate constants have been measured for the reactions of chlorine atoms with propanaldehyde, iso‐butyraldehyde, tert‐butyraldehyde, n‐pentaldehyde, acrolein, and crotonaldehyde. The obtained values were (in cm 3 molecule −1 s −1): (1.4 ± 0.3) × 10 −10, (1.7 ± 0.3)10 −10, (1.6 ± 0.3) × 10 −10, (2.6 ± 0.3) × 10 −10, (2.2 ± 0.3) × 10 −10, and (2.6 ± 0.3) × 10 −10, respectively.

The origins of different artificial radionuclides found in soils from Northern and Southern Bulgaria was determined by measurements
of their actual concentrations and respective ratios. On the basis of the measured mobility and concentrations of the investigated
radionuclides in soils, it was estimated that after the Chernobyl accident the mean depositions of fresh 137Cs were 3.0 ± 2.5 kBq/m 2 for Northern Bulgaria and 15 ± 7 kBq/m 2 for Southern Bulgaria. As a result of global fallout following atmospheric nuclear weapon tests in the 1950s, mean depositions
(corrected to 1965) were calculated for Northern and Southern Bulgaria as follows: for 90Sr—1.0 ± 0.5 and 2.3 ± 1.3 kBq/m 2, 238Pu—1.3 ± 0.8 and 2.8 ± 1.6 Bq/m 2, 239+240Pu—15 ± 14 and 47 ± 38 Bq/m 2, and 241Pu—520 ± 200 and 760 ± 260 Bq/m 2. 相似文献
