Surface tension and density of liquid Sn-Ag alloys

The surface tension and density measurements for Sn-Ag alloys were carried out with the sessile drop method. Seven different compositions were investigated in the range from 0.011 to 0.5 mole fraction of Ag, in a broad range of temperature. With increasing concentrations of Ag, both density and the surface tension are increased. With increasing temperature the density decreases for all of the alloys. A decrease of the surface tension is observed for most of the composition except for the alloy of 0.5 mole fractions of Ag. The obtained results are compared with existing literature data and Butler model calculations and relatively good agreement is observed.     

Surface tension of liquid Cu-Ti binary alloys measured by electromagnetic levitation and thermodynamic modelling

The surface tension of liquid Cu-Ti alloys has been measured by using the containerless technique of electromagnetic levitation and theoretically calculated in the framework of the compound formation model. Measurements have been carried out on alloys covering the entire range of composition and over the temperature range 1275-2050 K. For all investigated alloys the surface tension can be described by a linear function of the temperature with negative slope.Due to the presence of different intermetallic compounds in the solid state the surface properties of liquid Cu-Ti alloys are satisfactory described by the compound formation model.

双轴压缩下颗粒物质剪切带的形成与发展

本文采用离散元方法,研究了双轴压缩的颗粒体系在刚性边界约束下,局部剪切带的形成和发展过程,注重分析了细观的体积分数、配位数、颗粒旋转角度等参数以及力链结构形态的演变.并从颗粒体系jamming 相图中J点附近的边壁压强和配位数随体积分数的标度规律出发,分析了剪切带内外的体积分数和配位数的变化.结果表明:剪切带形成于颗粒体系的塑性变形开始阶段,此时体系发生剪胀,颗粒体积分数减小,颗粒体系抵抗旋转的能力降低,开始出现细小剪切带,随着轴向应变的继续,细小剪切带发生连接,最终导致贯穿性优势剪切带形成 关键词： 颗粒物质 力链 双轴压缩 剪切带     

制备均一性靶丸过程中的影响因素

在激光聚变实验中,高球形度、高厚度均一性的靶丸经常通过乳液微封装方法来制备。利用T.Norimatsu的模型研究在靶丸制备过程中,界面间表面张力、油相粘度、壳层尺寸、壳层厚度的影响。结果显示:较大的表面张力,较小的壳层尺寸,会使胶囊具有更好的均一性。当外部变形形式不同的时候,油相的粘度对于壳层均一性会有不同作用。

Salinity Selection for a Low Salinity Water-Low Salinity Surfactant Process

A laboratory selection of salinity for a low salinity water-low salinity surfactant (LS-LSS) process is presented in this paper with systematical investigation on surfactant phase behavior, interfacial tension (IFT), and dynamic retention in porous media with IOS2024 and isoamyl alcohol (IAA) as surfactant system. The results show that 0.4 wt% IOS2024 with 1 wt% IAA can provide ultra-low IFT of 10^?3 mN/m at around 3000–4000 mg/L total dissolved solids, but at that salinity range the surfactant retention is very high. The search for an optimum surfactant formulation has to consider solution properties and retention in addition to the low IFT. The salinity for a LS-LSS process should thus not be focused on either optimal salinity or ultra-low IFT, but instead the best choice could be a compromise between the properties in question. The three-phase region, where ultra-low IFT are found, is also associated with high retention values. However, we show that as salinity is increased from a two-phase region with oil solubilized in a water continuous microemulsion, there is a region close to the three-phase boundary which has potential. This region does not give ultra-low, but fairly low (10^?2 mN/m in this case) interfacial tensions, and also significantly lower retention.      

Dynamic Interfacial Behavior of Poly(oxyethylene) Lauryl Ether Based Surfactant Mixtures

The adsorption behavior of binary mixtures comprising nonionic surfactants at the air–water interface has been studied by bubble pressure tensiometry at concentrations above and below their critical micelle concentrations. Surfactants with the same hydrocarbon chains but different degree of ethoxylations were chosen as the components to understand their mixing behavior at equilibrium and dynamic conditions. At short times, the adsorption is found to be diffusion limited for individual components as well as for the mixtures, as predicted by the Ward and Tordai model. The effective diffusion coefficient of the monomers in the mixed state displays a dynamic synergism, consistent with the molecular thermodynamic model for dynamic surface tension. However, the equilibrium surface tension and micellar diffusion coefficient of the mixtures exhibit ideal behavior.     

Synthesis,Characterization, and Surface Properties of Cationic Gemini Surfactants

New pyridinium gemini surfactants have been synthesized by esterification of renewable fatty acids with mercaptoethanol furnishing respective esters (mercaptomethyl decanoate, mercaptomethyl dodecanoate, mercaptomethyl tetradecanoate, mercaptomethyl hexadecanoate) followed by their subsequent treatment with 4-dimethyl amino pyridine resulting in the formation of title gemini surfactants: 1-(5-(decanoyloxy)-2-hydroxypentyl)-4-((5-(decanoyloxy)-2-hydroxypentyl)dimethyl ammonio)pyridin-1-ium chloride (9), 1-(5-(dodecanoyloxy)-2-hydroxypentyl)-4-((5-(dodecanoyloxy)-2-hydroxypentyl)dimethyl ammonio)pyridin-1-ium chloride (10), 1-(5-(tetradecanoyloxy)-2-hydroxypentyl)-4-((5-(tetradecanoyloxy)-2-hydroxypentyl)dimethyl ammonio)pyridin-1-ium chloride (11), and 1-(5-(hexadecanoyloxy)-2-hydroxypentyl)-4-((5-(hexadecanoyloxy)-2-hydroxypentyl)dimethyl ammonio)pyridin-1-ium chloride (12). Their identifications are based on infrared, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, distortionless enhanced polarization transfer, co-relational spectroscopy (COSY), and mass spectral studies. Their surface active properties are also evaluated on the basis of surface tension and conductivity measurements. Thermal stability of these long chain cationic gemini surfactants have been measured by thermal gravimetric analysis under nitrogen atmosphere.
