On the connectedness of partially balanced block designs

The necessary and sufficient conditions for m-associate partially balanced block (PBB) designs to be connected are given. This generalizes the criterion for m-associate partially balanced incomplete block (PBIB) designs, which has originally been established by Ogawa, Ikeda and Kageyama (1984, Proceedings of the Seminar on Combinatorics and Applications, 248–255, Statistical Publishing Society, Calcutta).This work was partially supported by the Polish Academy of Sciences Grant No. MR I.1-2/2.     

热活化延迟荧光聚合物及其电致发光器件

热活化延迟荧光(TADF)聚合物,不仅具有小分子TADF材料高的激子利用效率特性,而且还具备分子多样性好、可溶液加工、低成本、以及易实现大面积柔性器件等诸多优势,在近几年受到广泛的关注并展现了良好的应用前景。本文从TADF聚合物分子设计原理、器件结构及发光机理出发,依据TADF聚合物的构筑方法不同,概括了其结构设计策略,详述了各种类型TADF聚合物的分子结构和光电性能及其在有机电致发光器件领域应用的研究进展,最后探讨了TADF聚合物存在的问题,并展望了其发展前景。     

Water bridges are essential to neonicotinoids: Insights from synthesis,bioassay and molecular modelling studies

To identify the detailed roles of water bridges in neonicotinoids recognition, twenty-four neonicotinoids compounds were designed, synthesized, bioassayed and modelled. Of all nine fragments mimicking water bridges, cyano group was the optimal one. The insecticidal activities indicated that the water bridge might be stable in the active site and was not suitable to be replaced by other groups, which highlighted the significance of water bridges for neonicotinoids.     

非弹性体增韧—聚合物增韧的新途径

Structure-activity relationships of pyrethroid insecticides. Part 2. The use of molecular dynamics for conformation searching and average parameter calculation

Summary Molecular dynamics simulations have been performed on a number of conformationally flexible pyrethroid insecticides. The results indicate that molecular dynamics is a suitable tool for conformational searching of small molecules given suitable simulation parameters. The structures derived from the simulations are compared with the static conformation used in a previous study. Various physicochemical parameters have been calculated for a set of conformations selected from the simulations using multivariate analysis. The averaged values of the parameters over the selected set (and the factors derived from them) are compared with the single conformation values used in the previous study.     

Design considerations and an example of application of an in-house made TG-MS interface

The design, the abilities and a characteristic application of an in-house made interface for combining thermogravimetry (TG) with mass spectrometry (MS) are presented. The TG-MS interface consists mainly of three co-axial tubes. The position of the intermediate tube was determined after calculation of the temperature profile at the TG furnace exit tube. The inner tube position was determined taking into consideration its protection against condensation of heavy molecules and the time delay for the transfer of the evolved gases. This interface allows either continuous sampling and transferring of the evolved gases from the TG to the MS or repetitive introduction of short sampling pulses of TG evolved gases to MS. The interface is capable of coupling various commercial instruments. In the present work two configurations of this interface are demonstrated. Finally an example of application of this interface on forest fuel pyrolysis is presented. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Development of a novel laboratory scale high solids reactor for anaerobic digestion of processed municipal solid wastes for the production of methane

Economic evaluations of the capital costs for anaerobic digestion systems for gas production show that the reactor is a significant cost component. The successful application of high solids digestion of processed MSW (e.g., greater than 10% solids within the digester) would allow a decrease in reactor volume with maintenance of relatively high gas production rates. However, high solids slurries do not mix well in conventional stirred tank reactors. A horizontal shaft, hydraulically driven reactor was designed and fabricated to test the anaerobic digestion of high solids concentrations. Digester performance was evaluated as a function of experimental parameters such as nutrient requirements, feeding rates, pH control, and agitator design/ rotation speed; horsepower of mixing was also evaluated for the reactor. Several startup protocols were examined to obtain a biologically stable anaerobic fermentation at high solids levels.
