Surface recombination in breakdown time delay experiments: Effect of different cathode materials

The late afterglow in nitrogen with iron electrode is studied by the breakdown time delay method, i.e., by measuring the breakdown time delay t_d as a function of the afterglow time . It is proposed that the cause of the secondary electrons initiating the breakdown is the energy of the surface recombination of nitrogen atoms on the iron electrode. The gas-phase and macrokinetic diffusive models are used to describe the experimental breakdown time delay data. By fitting the theoretical curve to the experimental data: (1) it has been confirmed that the recombination on the molybdenum glass is of the second order and the value of the surface recombination coefficient is determined at 4 mbar; (2) it has been shown that the surface recombination on the iron electrode is of the second order, and the effective recombination coefficients are determined; (3) the analytical form of the recombination coefficient as a function of the adsorption characteristics of surfaces and the pressure of the parent gas has been derived. In addition, the orders of surface recombination on the molybdenum-, aluminum-, and gold-plated electrode were determined by the same method.     

镀液中Ce^3＋离子对锡镀层结构缺陷和可焊性的影响

应用荧光分析法、X光电子能谱法(XPS)及正电子湮没寿命谱法(PALS)等研究了从含硫酸铈添加剂的酸性光亮锡镀液获得的锡镀层结构缺陷与可焊性的关系。结果表明,电镀时Ce与Sn不发生共沉积,Ce~(3+)的主要作用是阻化Sn~(2+)的水解和氧化使镀液稳定,因而使锡镀层纯度提高、结构致密、表层氧含量减少,有利于提高镀层的可焊性。当Ce~(3+)浓度控制在3.5g/L左右时,可使镀层结构缺陷较少,可焊性较佳,说明结构缺陷是影响锡镀层可焊性的直接原因。

Amino acid overproduction by analog resistant mutants of the nitrogen fixing cyanobacteriumAnabaena sp 287

Two amino acid analog resistant mutants of the cyanobacteriumAnabaena sp 287 were isolated after MNNG mutagenesis.Anabaena ST 16, a mutant resistant to the alanine analog D-α-aminobutyric acid andAnabaena ST 25, another mutant resistant to the histidine analog l,2,4-triazole-3-alanine, released alanine and histidine, respectively, into the medium upon immobilization in alginic acid during diazotrophic growth in fluidized bed reactors. The rates of amino acid production by the mutants were 4.3 μmol mg chl^-1 h^-1 of D-alanine byAnabaena ST 16 and 16.6 μnol mg chl^-1 h^-1 of L-histidine byAnabaena ST 25. Nitrogen fixation by the mutants was not affected by the extracellular amino acid concentration. While the radioactive carbon flow was followed, the parent strain retained 93% of fixed¹⁴C and released only 7% into the medium. On the other hand,Anabaena ST 16 released 13% andAnabaena ST 25 released 29% into the medium. These mutants are beneficial in the production of radioactive amino acids using diazotrophic photobiotechnology.     

A practical access to novel 2-amino-5-arylidene-1,3-thiazol-4(5H)-ones via sulfur/nitrogen displacement under solvent-free microwave irradiation

A new effective approach to the synthesis of a small library of 2-amino-5-arylidene-1,3-thiazol-4(5H)-ones was reported using solvent-free reaction conditions under microwave irradiation. In the first step, rhodanines were subjected to Knoevenagel condensation with aryl aldimines according to a facile one-pot protocol. Then the (5Z)-5-arylidene rhodanine derivatives were transformed directly into the corresponding 2-amino-1,3-thiazol-4(5H)-ones by sulfur/nitrogen displacement reaction under microwaves with retention of configuration and good overall yields.     

Elucidating the Coordination Chemistry and Mechanism of Biological Nitrogen Fixation

How does the enzyme nitrogenase reduce the inert molecule N₂ to NH₃ under ambient conditions that are so different from the energy‐expensive conditions of the best industrial practices? This review focuses on recent theoretical investigations of the catalytic site, the iron–molybdenum cofactor FeMo‐co, and the way in which it is hydrogenated by protons and electrons and then binds N₂. Density functional calculations provide reaction profiles and activation energies for possible mechanistic steps. This establishes a conceptual framework and the principles for the coordination chemistry of FeMo‐co that are essential to the chemical mechanism of catalysis. The model advanced herein explains relevant experimental data.

煤气化过程中生成氮化物的研究

对煤中N在气化条件下的转化进行了研究，详细考察了在CO2和水蒸气气氛中转化生成HCN和NH3的过程，并对热解和气化条件下煤中N转化规律的差别进行了讨论。实验结果表明：在气化条件下煤中N转化为HCN和NH3的量随温度的升高而增大，在水蒸气气氛下HCN和NH3的生成量明显大于热解条件的实验结果。在本实验条件下半焦中N含量的15％－20％可以转化为NH3，水蒸汽气氛条件下NH3生成量的提高主要来源于半焦的气化反应过程。
