Analysis of the manufacturing lead time in a production system with non-renewal batch input,threshold policy and post-operation

In this paper, we analyze the manufacturing lead time in a production system with BMAP (Batch Markovian Arrival process) input and post-operation operated under the N-policy. We use the factorization principle to derive the waiting time distribution (hence the manufacturing lead time) and the mean performance measures. A numerical example is provided.     

Base-Catalyzed Reaction of Cyanoalkylphosphonates with Methanol

The equilibrium conversion of nitriles in the reaction of cyanoalkylphosphonates with methanol in the presence of sodium methylate, as determined by potentiometric titration with perchloric acid in nitromethane, varies from 58 to 17.7%. The practical yields of imidates were evaluated by a preparative procedure of isolation of purified imidates from the reaction mixtures (56-14%). Because of the low conversions of nitriles, the reaction is expedient to use only for preparing alkyl (dialkoxyphosphoryl)acetimidates.

Photophysical properties of borondipyrromethene analogues in solution

The photophysical properties of seven new 8-(p-substituted)phenyl analogues of 4,4-difluoro-3,5-dimethyl-8-(aryl)-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene (derivatives of the well-known fluorophore BODIPY) in several solvents have been studied by means of absorption and steady-state and time-resolved fluorimetry. For each compound, the fluorescence quantum yield and lifetime are lower in solvents with higher polarity owing to an increase in the rate of nonradiative deactivation. Increasing the electron withdrawing strength of the p-substituent on the phenyl group in position 8 also leads to lower fluorescence quantum yields and lifetimes. When the p-substituent on the phenyl group in position 8 is a tertiary amine [8-(4-piperidinophenyl), 8-(4-N,N-dimethylaminophenyl), and 8-(4-morpholinophenyl)], the low quantum yields of these compounds in more polar solvents can be rationalized by the inversion of the energy levels of an apolar, highly fluorescent and a polar, nonfluorescent excited state, where charge transfer from the tertiary amine to the BODIPY unit occurs. These amine analogues can be protonated at low pH in aqueous solution. Fluorescence titrations yielded pK(a) values of their conjugate ammonium salts which are in agreement with the electron donating tendency of the amine group: piperidino (4.15) > dimethylamino (2.37) > morpholino (1.47), with the pK(a) values in parentheses. The rate constant of radiative deactivation (k(f)) is the same for all compounds in all solvents studied (k(f) = 1.4 x 10(8) s(-1)).

Culture conditions dictate protease and tannase production in submerged and solid-state cultures of Aspergillus niger Aa-20

Undesirable protease production by Aspergillus niger Aa-20 in submerged culture and solid-state culture was evaluated using different concentrations of tannic acid as sole carbon source in a model system designed for tannase production. Protease production was found to be dependent on the culture system used (submerged culture or solid-state culture) and on the initial tannic acid concentration. Expression of protease activity in submerged culture was higher (up to 10 times) than activity obtained in solid-state culture, using identical culture medium composition. In submerged culture, the lowest final protease activity (0.13 IU) was obtained with the highest tannic acid concentration, while in solid-state culture protease activity was not affected by changes in initial substrate concentration. Absence of detectable proteolytic activity in solid-state culture is related to high production of tannase enzyme. Hence, the use of solid-state culture for fungal enzyme production may allow for higher and more stable enzyme titers present in culture extracts.

黑腔靶中超热电子特性研究

近几年来,在“神光”装置上进行了1.053μm激光与平面靶及一系列柱形黑腔靶相互作用实验。用一台多道滤波—荧光X光能谱仪(FFS)测得各种靶发射的超热X射线谱,由谱推导超热电子温度T_h和超热电子总能量E_h当照射靶单束激光能量E_(tar)为400～670J、脉宽τ=650～1150ps时,发现黑腔内明显存在两群服从Maxwell分布高能电子(T_h=35～45keV;T_(hh)=150～350kev),而且E_(he)占E_(tar)的份额为10％～12％。实验还表明:腔内的E_(he)与非线性过程特征量(SRS)有较好的线性关系,因此推断出腔内超热电子产生的主要机制是受激Raman散射。在相同照射条件下,黑腔靶产生的超热电子比平面靶严重。     

An efficient preparation of novel 5-fluoropyrazolin-3-one derivatives from α-trifluoromethylated α-arylacetates

The reactions of α-trifluoromethylated α-arylacetates 1 with 3 equiv of hydrazine, methylhydrazine or benzylhydrazine in 1,4-dioxane at reflux for 24 h afforded the corresponding 5-fluoropyrazolin-3-one derivatives 3a-m in high yields. Similarly, treatment of 1 with 3 equiv of PhNLiNH₂ in THF at −78 °C, followed by warming to room temperature, resulted in the formation of 3n-s in high yields.     

Intraframework potential energy function of zeolites

Potential energy functions suitable for the (Cs_1–xNa_xT₂O₄)-A type zeolite family were obtained from the known crystal structure of Cs₇Na₅-A zeolite. Using these potential functions, several other crystal structures in these family were obtained by molecular mechanical calculations. The activation energy - to -cage transmission of the H₂ molecule and the void volume of Cs₃Na₉-A zeolite were calculated.
