Particle Penetration into Polydisperse Polymer Brushes: A Theoretical Analysis

Based on theoretical analysis, the effect of polydispersity on particle penetration into polydisperse polymer brushes is investigated. Three different polydispersities representing sharp, moderate, and extremely wide chain length distributions are chosen, since the corresponding explicit expressions of brush density at these polydispersities are available. To simplify the discussion, this study is restricted to spherical particles of small size which ensure that the particle insertion only causes local conformational perturbations. By analyzing the particle distribution, it is found that polydispersity always facilitates particle penetration. This prediction is confirmed by analyzing the surface fluctuations of the brushes. Interestingly, uniform scaling relations are observed for particles penetrating into monodisperse and moderately polydisperse brushes. The uniformity predicted by monodisperse and moderately polydisperse brushes originates from the same asymptotic behavior of their densities approaching the brush edge. This indicates that polydispersity brings significant influence only at high polydispersities.

Modeling and Sensitivity Analysis of Particle Size Distribution and Chain Length Distribution in a Semibatch Emulsion Copolymerization Reactor

Summary: A comprehensive model is developed to predict the relationship between the particle size distribution and molecular weights of particles in an emulsion copolymerization reactor. A full population balance equation is used for the particle size distribution and extended to the model for the molecular properties using a continuous reactor approach. The numerical prediction clearly distinguishes the characteristics of molecular properties of particles by homogeneous nucleation from those by micellar nucleation with the dependence on the particle size. Sensitivity analysis of the proposed model under a variety of conditions shows that the compartmentalized feature of the emulsion system should be considered for better prediction of molecular properties, and provides information on the manipulated variables and lumped parameters which effectively decompose the correlation of both properties. Finally, a control strategy utilizing a lumped parameters tracking method is suggested for the regulation of both the particle size distribution and molecular properties.

Experimental and Theoretical Study of MTBE Adsorption from Polluted Water on GAC and PAC in Continuous Process

Methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) is an organic compound thatis used to increase the gasoline octane number. At the beginning of 1980s, by discovering the undesirable effects of tetra ethyl lead usage in fuel, MTBE began to be used worldwide. But gradually the undesirable effects of MTBE on environment had been revealed. Adsorption is the most conventional and economical technology for MTBE removal from polluted water. In this research, some experiments have been done for studying the adsorption of MTBE on different solid adsorbent in continuous processes. In continuous experiments, the water polluted with known initial MTBE concentration passes through an adsorption column containing two kinds of adsorbent including granular activated carbon (GAC), powdered activated carbon (PAC). By measuring MTBE concentration in exit flow at different times the effect of different operating parameters such as temperature, pH, and flow rate have been studied and the optimum condition have been determined. The batch experimental results have been used to calculate the constant parameters of Langmuir adsorption isotherm equations. A dynamic simulation of MTBE adsorption on activated carbon in an adsorption column has been proposed. The comparison of the experimental data with the values given by the proposed model for similar operating conditions, verifies the accuracy of the proposed mathematical model.

Solid Particle Distribution in Centrifugal Impeller Contactors

The recently developed centrifugal impeller is examined to investigate the solid–liquid mixing in a mechanically agitated contactor. Using the sample withdrawal method, the effects of impeller geometrical parameters, impeller rotational speed (200–700 rpm), solid particle size (500–1100 µm), and solid loading (2–10 vol%) on the degree of homogeneity are studied. The axial and the radial solid concentration profiles and the minimum impeller speed for the complete homogenization are also determined. In comparison with a widely used propeller impeller, considerably higher homogeneity values in lower impeller speeds are obtained (90% homogeneity against 16% homogeneity at 200 rpm at the same conditions). Having also lower power consumption makes this a superior impeller in solid–liquid mixing processes especially in shear-sensitive systems.      

Theoretical and Experimental Analysis of Protoporphyrin IX Photodegradation Using Multi-Wavelength Light Sources

Photodynamic procedures have been used in many applications, ranging from cancer treatment to microorganism inactivation. Photodynamic reactions start with the activation of a photosensitizing molecule with light, leading to the production of cytotoxic molecules that promote cell death. However, establishing the correct light and photosensitizer dosimetry for a broadband light source remains challenging. In this study, we proposed a theoretical mathematical model for the photodegradation of protoporphyrin IX (PpIX), when irradiated by multi-wavelength light sources. The theoretical model predicts the experimental photobleaching (temporal change in PpIX concentration) of PpIX for different light sources. We showed that photobleaching occurs independently of the light source wavelengths but instead depends only on the number of absorbed photons. The model presented here can be used as an important mathematical approach to better understand current photodynamic therapy protocols and help achieve optimization of the doses delivered.     

Headspace Solid-Phase Microextraction Analysis of Volatile Components in Peanut Oil

Peanut oil is favored by consumers due to its rich nutritional value and unique flavor. This study used headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME) combined with gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS) to examine the differences in the peanut oil aroma on the basis of variety, roasting temperatures, and pressing components. The results revealed that the optimal conditions for extracting peanut oil were achieved through the use of 50/30 μm DVB/CAR/PDMS fibers at 60 °C for 50 min. The primary compounds present in peanut oil were pyrazines. When peanuts were roasted, the temperature raised from 120 °C to 140 °C and the content of aldehydes in peanut oil increased; however, the content of aldehydes in No. 9 oil at 160 °C decreased. The components of peanut shell oil varied depending on the peanut variety. The most marked difference was observed in terms of the main compound at the two roasting temperatures. This compound was a pyrazine, and the content increased with the roasting temperature in hekei oils. When the roasting temperature was lower, No. 9 oil contained more fatty acid oxidation products such as hexanal, heptanal, and nonanal. When the roasting temperature increased, No. 9 oil contained more furfural and 5-methylfurfural. Heren oil was easier to oxidize and produced nonanal that possessed a fatty aroma.     

Development of Electro Solid-Phase Microextraction and Application to Methamphetamine Analysis

A new electro solid-phase microextraction (El-SPME) technique using homemade pencil-lead fibers has been developed as an effective means of selective extraction of methamphetamine before analysis by gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS). The methamphetamine was extracted by use of a laboratory-made El-SPME cell with three electrodes—the pencil-lead SPME fiber, Ag/AgCl, and platinum as working, reference, and auxiliary electrodes, respectively. A negative potential was applied to the homemade pencil-lead fiber during extraction. Experimental conditions, for example type of pencil-lead fiber, conditions for modification of the fiber, extraction time, applied potential, pH, and gas chromatographic conditions were optimized. Methamphetamine was identified by GC–MS. Screening of the extracted compounds showed that the proposed El-SPME technique is much more selective than direct SPME using a commercially available polyacrylate fiber. Under the optimum conditions the calibration plot for the compound was linear in the range 50–3,200 ng mL⁻¹ and the detection limit was 34 ng mL⁻¹.     

Equilibrium Particle Distribution in the Disperse System with Coagulation and Aggregate Disintegration

Kinetic equations were formulated, which describe coagulation–fragmentation process in a low concentrated suspension flow at a low shear rate. In such a system dispersed phase divided into fine and coarse fractions as the system is brought to equilibrium. Kinetic equations of two-fraction model were formulated. An approximate solution and, in one particular case, the exact solution of these equations were obtained for the equilibrium state. Detailed analysis of equilibrium particle distribution over the mass m was performed for an exponential coagulation kernel = ₀ m and an degenerated disintegration kernel = ₁₂, in which the disintegration frequency is an exponential function of aggregate mass ₁ = ₀ m ⁺ , and the probability of the fragment detachment from an aggregate is independent ofm and decreases exponentially with an increase in mass of a fragment: ₂ = ₀ ^–1exp(–/₀). The equilibrium distribution was shown to exist only at > 0, and in particular, it is described at = = 1 by the f() = ₀₀ ^–1exp(–/₀) and F(m) = Cx ^–1(x + 1)^{2 – 1} e ^–x functions for the particles of fine and coarse fractions (x = m/m ₀, = m ₀/₀, m ₀ and ₀ are the characteristic masses of coarse and fine fractions, respectively). The particle distribution for the fine fraction at 1 is well approximated by the Gaussian distribution exp[–(m – m ₀)²/(4^–1 m ₀₀)].

Application of Solid-Phase Microextraction for the Analysis of Nitropolycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Water

The present work investigates the applicability of solid-phase microextraction coupled to gas-chromatography mass-spectrometry for the determination of trace amounts of nitropolycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in water samples. The main parameters affecting solid-phase microextraction (sampling mode, fibre type, sampling time, agitation rate and ionic strength of the aqueous solution) were controlled and the optimal experimental conditions found were: 65-μm polydimethylsiloxane-divinylbenzene fibre immersed for 45 min to 5 mL spiked water samples, stirred at 1250 rpm. The developed solid-phase microextraction method was found to be linear in the concentration range 0.1 to 10 μg L⁻¹, with the detection limits ranging between 0.004 and 0.060 μg L⁻¹ (under the selective ion monitoring mode) and the repeatability varying between 1.7 and 5.9% (n=5). Analysis of spiked tap and well water samples revealed that matrix had little effect on extraction. Overall, it was found that solid-phase microextraction is suitable for the trace analysis of nitropolycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in water samples. Revised: 14 October and 14 November 2005

A Phenomenon of the Change in Particle Drift Velocity Direction in High-Field Electrophoresis

The sign–alternating electric field in rectangular impulses has been used to eliminate linear electrophoresis and to study nonlinear electrophoresis in water at strong fields. We found out that the particle drift velocity could change its direction with the growth of the strength of the field. This new phenomenon has obtained its explanation in the framework of the Debye–Hückel theory of strong electrolyte where we consider a particle as a “heavy” effective ion and take into account all relevant nonlinear effects, grounding ourselves on basic physics. With the help of our theory we have succeeded in good fitting of our experimental data on black oil and Al₂O₃ particles in distilled water using reasonable values for the basic parameters such as the Debye screening length.
