CoFe2O4自形成磁性液体场致结构化对磁化的影响

The Langevin paramagnetic theory can’t describe the relation between magnetization of ferrofluids and applied magnetic field. The structuralization of ferrofluids, which is considered the main influence factor of the magnetization, is regarded. The part of magnetization works is deposited when the structure is forming. This action influences the magnetization of ferrofluids directly or indirectly. On the base of the “compressing” model, the Langevin function that usually describes the magnetization of ferrofluid is modified, and a well-fitted curve is obtained. An equation of the relation between the equivalent volume fraction after being “compressed” and the intensity of magnetic field is discovered, which approximately describes the process of magnetization. The relation between the approximate initial susceptibility and the volume fraction can be obtained from modified formula.     

氢在Ni(511)台阶面的吸附与解离研究

The adsorption and dissociation of hydrogen on stepped surface (511) of nickel are studied with the embedded-atom model (EAM) method. The adsorption energy, the length of the adsorption bond and the adsorption height for a single hydrogen atom are calculated. Three kinds of stable sites are found for hydrogen adsorption. There are the double-fold bridge site B on the step edge, the three-fold hollow site H3′ on the step surface and the four-fold hollow sites H1 and H2 on the terrace surface. Compared with a hydrogen atom adsorbed on low-index (001) surface, there are two other adsorption sites near the step: the two-fold bridge site B on the step edge and the three-fold hollow site H3′ on the step surface. At the same time, the absorbability of the hydrogen atom at the site H1 is intensified. The results show that hydrogen adsorption on Ni (511) is affected by the existence of the step. The active barriers, adsorption energy and corresponding bond length for dissociation of a hydrogen molecule on the stepped surface are presented. The results show that the dissociation is easier at the bottom of the step. It is shown that the steps are the active sites for hydrogen adsorption and dissociation.     

线性反馈抑制螺旋波

A class of excitable media described by the Fitzhugh-Nagumo equation is investigated. Based on the stable and self adaptive theory, the error between the systems grid variables and the standard sampling of the periodical signal or constant signal was feed back into the system both globally and locally. When the controller was then shut off, automatically, the whole system became homogeneous. Additionally, the scheme was tested under noisy conditions. The numerical simulations results demonstrate its effectiveness. The system reached a homogeneous state and a spiral wave was converted into a target wave, resulting in a wonderful pattern emerging using a different controller. The scheme proved robust in resisting the effects of noise.     

TiO2膜光催化剂的改进及表征

提出用粉末-溶胶法制备TiO2薄膜型光催化剂,介绍了粉溶法的制备工艺及改变pH值对催化活性的影响.研究结果表明, 利用粉溶法或添加浓HNO3后制备的TiO2薄膜光催化剂表现出了较高的光催化活性.结合结构表征详细分析了其中的原因.认为粉溶法制备的催化剂表面更粗糙,比表面积增大,膜厚度减小,这些都可能是其催化活性提高的原因.而加酸后膜催化活性提高主要是因为酸性条件下表面几乎没有Ti3+表面态,利于光生电子与光生空穴的分离.

The modification of the triple helical structure of gelatin in aqueous solution 3. The influence of nonionic surfactants

Using CD-measurements the influence of nonionic surfactants (dodecyl polyoxyethylene, ethoxylated para tert. octyl phenol, commercial nonionic WON 100 and octyl diethyl phosphinoxid) on the secondary structure of gelatin in aqueous solutions was investigated. At surfactant concentrations smaller than the c.m.c. the triple helical content of the gelatin is increased. At concentrations exceeding the c.m.c. the triple helical content decreases. Chain reversals of the peptide chains after the destruction of the triple helical structure were shown to appear in acidic environment at 298 K. This destruction is reversible by rechilling the solution.     

Cun、Agn和Aun(n≤9)团簇的静电极化率

The static polarizabilities and polarizability anisotropies of Cun,Agn and Aun (n≤9)clusters have been calculated by the B3LYP density functional method,which is a three parameter mixture of density functional and"exact" Hartree Fock exchange. The calculated results are compared with experimental polarizabilities of sodium clusters. It is shown that the size dependency of the static polarizabilities per atom of Cun,and Agn clusters possesses the same trend as that observed in sodium clusters exception of the Aunclusters while the polarizability of Au atom is much smaller than these of Cu and Ag.The(α-)of Au atom is the smallest and the(α-)per atom of Au approach to the values of Cu from the dimmer to the hexamer. It indicates that in Au clusters the electrons are more strongly attracted by the nuclei because of the more electrons. However,the absolute polarizabilities of the noble mental clusters are considerably smaller than those of the sodium clusters and the electronic structures of the noblemental are much more compact.     

Thermodynamics of dissolving and solvation processes for benzoic acid and the toluic acids in aqueous solution

Experimental data are presented for the solubility in water of benzoic and toluic acids from 5° to 65°C. From the solubility the molality of the monomeric form of the acid is calculated using literature data for both ionization and dimerization of the acid. These data for the monomer combined with data from the literature for vaporization of the solid and ionization in both the gas phase and the aqueous phase yield entropy and enthalpy changes for the solvation of molecular and anionic forms of the acid. A similar procedure is also applied to literature data for the solubility of benzene in water. It is shown that the hydration entropies of the monomeric forms are a linear function of their partial molar volumes. It is concluded that hydration of the undissociated o-toluic acid may be crucial to the increased acidity of that acid compared to benzoic acid.     

硝基胍H迁移异构化反应动力学的从头计算研究

Theoretical studies on the α- and β-forms nitroguanidine were carried out using ab initio theoretical methods, at the MP2/6-31G(d,p) level. The predicted geometrical parameters were in good agreement with the available theoretical values, which calculated by other author. The three C-N bond lengths in α-form nitroguanidine were different, the longest bond length was 1.430 A, the shortest was 1.283 A. But they were almost similar in β-form, the longest was 1.375 A, the shortest was 1.322 A. Therefore there were conjugative effects in β-form but not in α-form. The calculated results also show that the β-form is stable with respect to the α-form from energetically, lower 28.16 kJ/mol corrected with zero point vibrational energy. The transition-state for the unimolecular isomerization was conformed by the IRC calculation. The calculated energy barrier for the direct intramolecular hydrogen atom transfer isomerization process was 132.95 kJ/mol. The isomerization reaction, exothermal reaction, is a typical intramolecular hydrogen atom synfacial transfer reaction. Rate constants of the isomerization reaction were evaluated within the temperature range of 200-1773 K by the classical transition state theory. The rate constant was 1.99×10-11 s-1 and the equilibrium constant was 1.00×105 at 298 K. With the temperature increasing, the equilibrium value decayed and the reaction process was more difficult.     

Influence of nozzle geometry on polystyrene degradation in convergent flow

Polymer degradation is readily observed in flows where the extensional component surpasses the rotational component of the velocity gradient. This type of flow is conveniently obtained by pushing a liquid into a convergent channel across an orifice. Kinetics of chain scission is sensitive to subtle modification of the coil conformation, which in turn depends on the details of the pervading flow field. By changing the orifice diameter and the conical angle of the inlet, it is possible to modify the spatial distribution of the velocity gradient, and hence, the residence time of a fluid element in the high strain-rate region. Degradation yields, measured under -conditions in decalin by Gel Permeation Chromatography, showed a strong dependence on the fluid velocity at the orifice, but not on the magnitude of the strain-rate. This result is contrary to the common belief that assumes viscous friction, proportional to the strain-rate, is the determining factor for the scission rate of a bond under stress. Rather, experimental findings tend to indicate that the driving force for chain scission was provided by the energy accumulated in the coil during the flow-induced deformation process. The sharp propensity for mid-chain scission was maintained regardless of the nozzle geometry.Dedicated to Prof. W. R. Pechhold on the occasion of his 60th birthday     

复合物Ca+-RNA碱基的结构与稳定性

Gas-phase metal ion affinities and optimized structures of RNA nucleic acid bases for the Ca+ were determined at a density functional level employing the hybrid B3LYP exchange correlation potential in connection with the 6-311+G(2df,2p) basis set. All the molecular complexes, obtained by the interaction between several low-lying tautomers of RNA nucleic acid and Ca+ on the different binding sites, were considered. For Cytosine, the most stable complex was obtained starting from the most stable tautomer of the free nucleic acid base tautomers. As to thymine, the bond energy of the ion with the most stable tautomer of the free nucleic acid base is the weakest among the three tautomer’s complexes, and that of the ion with least stable tautomer of the free nucleic acid base is the strongest . Uracil is similar to thymine. The two kinds of relation, bond energy and total energy for the complex, are in disagreement, as the metal affinities of RNA bases for the Ca+ depend on binding sites, and total energy of complex (Ca+-RNA base) relies on all atoms and their relative positions in the complex.     

A real-time drawing study on solution-crystallized UHMW-polyethylene — comparison with conventional x-ray results

Solution-crystallized ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMW-PE) can be drawn in the solid state to very high draw ratios, leading to materials with excellent mechanical properties. Very recently, the drawing process has been studied via different x-ray techniques, on the basis of which a deformation mechanism was proposed which could satisfactorily explain all observations. However, like most deformation studies performed in the past, the measuring conditions were quite different from the actual drawing conditions. Cooling drawn samples to room temperature as well as relieving the stretching force may give rise to the introduction of artefacts, leading to misinterpretation of the results. In order to exclude this possibility an x-ray study was performed on solution-crystallized UHMW-PE in real time, i.e.,during the deformation process, using the benefits of synchrotron facilities. Comparison of these results with x-ray results obtained via the conventional method shows that the latter method can be used without any problems for a qualitative study on the solid state drawing of ultradrawable UHMW-PE. One of the major advantages of the real-time method is the possibility to study the initial elastic deformation region.Presented in part at the Rolduc Polymer Meeting-2, April 1987, Kerkrade, The Netherlands.

Polymorphism and Conformational Equilibrium of Nitro-Acetophenone in Solid State and under Matrix Conditions

Conformational and polymorphic states in the nitro-derivative of o-hydroxy acetophenone have been studied by experimental and theoretical methods. The potential energy curves for the rotation of the nitro group and isomerization of the hydroxyl group have been calculated by density functional theory (DFT) to estimate the barriers of the conformational changes. Two polymorphic forms of the studied compound were obtained by the slow and fast evaporation of polar and non-polar solutions, respectively. Both of the polymorphs were investigated by Infrared-Red (IR) and Raman spectroscopy, Incoherent Inelastic Neutron Scattering (IINS), X-ray diffraction, nuclear quadrupole resonance spectroscopy (NQR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and density functional theory (DFT) methods. In one of the polymorphs, the existence of a phase transition was shown. The position of the nitro group and its impact on the crystal cell of the studied compound were analyzed. The conformational equilibrium determined by the reorientation of the hydroxyl group was observed under argon matrix isolation. An analysis of vibrational spectra was achieved for the interpretation of conformational equilibrium. The infrared spectra were measured in a wide temperature range to reveal the spectral bands that were the most sensitive to the phase transition and conformational equilibrium. The results showed the interrelations between intramolecular processes and macroscopic phenomena in the studied compound.     

Capillary force required to detach micron-sized particles from solid surfaces—Validation with bubbles circulating in water and 2 μm-diameter latex spheres

The adhesion forces holding micron-sized particles to solid surfaces can be studied through the detachment forces developed by the transit of an air–liquid interface in a capillary. Two key variables affect the direction and magnitude of the capillary detachment force: (i) the thickness of the liquid film between the bubble and the capillary walls, and (ii) the effective angle of the triple phase contact between the particles and the interface. Variations in film thickness were calculated using a two-phase flow model. Film thickness was used to determine the time-variation of the capillary force during transit of the bubble. The curve for particle detachment was predicted from the calculated force. This curve proved to be non-linear and gave in situ information on the effective contact angle developing at the particle–bubble interface during detachment. This approach allowed an accurate determination of the detachment force. This theoretical approach was validated using latex particles 2 μm in diameter.     

表面张力对PEO稀溶液粘度行为的影响

测定了不同分子量聚氧化乙烯(PEO)在水和苯溶剂中的粘度,发现在低浓度区PEO水溶液的比浓粘度出现负偏离, PEO苯溶液比浓粘度与浓度之间依旧满足线性关系.表面张力测定结果表明, PEO分子显著降低了水的表面张力,而苯的表面张力则不受影响.PEO水溶液和纯溶剂水表面张力的不同干扰了高分子溶液和溶剂在粘度计中流过时间的测量,导致低浓度区PEO水溶液比浓粘度出现负偏离.利用PEO水溶液和水表面张力测定结果,结合乌式粘度计的几何尺寸,定量分析了PEO水溶液和纯溶剂水表面张力的差异对粘度测量结果的影响,计算结果与实验结果基本相符.如果用PEO水溶液流过时间对浓度作图的外推值t0*计算相对粘度,可以完全消除PEO水溶液和水表面张力差异对粘度测量的影响.     

衬底温度对ZnO薄膜晶体结构和电学性质的影响研究

ZnO films were deposited on glass substrates by gas discharge reaction evaporation. The influences of substrate temperature on the surface morphology, crystal structure and electric properties of ZnO films were studied by scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, X-ray diffraction spectroscopy and complex impedance spectroscopy. The results show that the films with dense and amorphous structure and lower grain boundary resistance were deposited at room temperature. When the substrate temperature is higher than 50 ℃, the films with certain c-axis orientation can be deposited. With the increase of the substrate temperature, the preferential orientation of ZnO films along c-axis is augmented, the tensile stress along c-axis orientation decreases and the grain boundary resistance increases in a marked degree. When the substrate temperature is higher than 100 ℃, the increasing trend of the preferential orientation of ZnO films along c-axis slows down. ZnO films possess high preferential c-axis orientation and best crystalline quality at 180-200 ℃. These possess a smooth surface, symmetrical grain dimension (i.e. 30-40 nm), inerratic crystal shape, less tensile stress and 0.965 epitaxial degree along the c-axis direction. Here the grain boundary effect increases and the grain boundary resistance is evidently more than that of the films deposited at room temperature. The mechanism by which substrate temperature affects crystal structure and grain boundary properties were also discussed.     

Simultaneous correlation of hydrophobic interactions in HIC and protein solubility in aqueous salt solutions and mixed solvents

The chromatographic retention in hydrophobic and reversed phase chromatography and the solubility of proteins display some common features. The chromatographic retention, as well as the solubility, is modulated by the thermodynamic properties of the solute in the fluid phase. The retention measurements at linear conditions provide information of the solution properties of the protein at infinite dilution, and the solubility measurements produce the supplementary information about the solution properties at the saturation limit. This provides a useful approach to simultaneous correlation of the chromatographic retention and the solubility.The experimental data, used for the correlation, comprise retention measurements of lysozyme on different HIC adsorbents using an aqueous ammonium sulphate eluant, an aqueous ammonium sulphate eluant with an admixture of ethanol, as well as published solubility data.The chromatographic retention data and the corresponding solubility data have been correlated using a chemical potential model derived from Kirkwood's theory of solutions of charged macro-ions and zwitterions in electrolyte solutions. The model correlated the chromatographic retention factor and the solubility data within the precision of the measurements. The model was applied in a pH range from 4 to 11. It was demonstrated experimentally, as well as theoretically, that an admixture of ethanol to the aqueous eluant changes the thermodynamic retention factor on various adsorbents identically when compared to the thermodynamic retention factor in an ethanol free eluant.     

A study of the ageing of the gel structure in a nonionic O/W cream by X-ray diffraction,differential scanning calorimetry and spin-lattice relaxation measurements

The time dependent changes of the lamellar gel structure in a nonionic O/W cream were studied. It appeared that the changes were connected with alterations in the hydrophilic layers of this lamellar gel structure. The structure of the hydrocarbon layers did not change. The alterations were induced by an increasing hydration of the surfactant molecules on cooling from the preparation temperature to room temperature. Ageing of the cream involves a decrease of the thickness of the hydrophilic layers and a change of the distribution of the surfactant molecules, resulting in, among other things, a decrease of the release rate of a hydrophilic drug. Ageing of the cream can be prevented by using the appropriate amount of starting materials or by the use of polymerizable surfactants. In the former case a cream, from which a drug is slowly released, is obtained. On the other hand, creams containing polymerized surfactants can release drugs at a relatively high rate.     

Chemical Cleaning of Microfiltration Membranes Fouled by Whey

Millipore hydrophobic polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) microfiltration membranes were used for whey processing. Fouled membranes were cleaned with acid (HCl), alkaline (NaOH) and surfactant (Triton‐X100). The latter resulted in maximum flux recovery and resistance removal. Hydrochloric acid had a moderate effect and sodium hydroxide was the weakest cleaning agent. This is due to the cleaning strength of emulsifiers compared to acid or alkali. However acids are more efficient than alkaline solutions for removal of mineral compounds which remain on the membrane surface. Cleaning efficiency depends on the concentration of cleaning agent being higher for higher surfactant concentration. For acids and alkali, the efficiency increases with increasing the concentration of the reagent reaches a maximum (optimum concentration) and then decreases. This can be explained by changes in permeability of the deposit layer with the concentration of the cleaning agent. Another explanation is the breakage of proteins by acid or alkali which produces more fouling materials and causes less cleaning efficiency. Operating conditions affect the cleaning process. At higher stirring speeds (turbulent flow) or longer cleaning time better removal of deposits and higher cleaning efficiency were observed. The sequential cleaning process may or may not improve the cleaning efficiency. When acidic cleaning was followed by washing with a surfactant an improvement was achieved. This can be attributed to the incomplete removal of deposits by acid. However further cleaning with acid can not improve the cleaning efficiency. During whey processing fouling occurs by deposition of foulants of mostly proteins and macromolecules on the membrane surface or in the membrane matrix. Large substances (compared to the membrane pores) settle on the membrane surface and the small species penetrate and are adsorbed in the membrane pores. Cleaning dissolves and removes the adsorbed foulants from the membrane.
