CoFe2O4自形成磁性液体场致结构化对磁化的影响

The Langevin paramagnetic theory can’t describe the relation between magnetization of ferrofluids and applied magnetic field. The structuralization of ferrofluids, which is considered the main influence factor of the magnetization, is regarded. The part of magnetization works is deposited when the structure is forming. This action influences the magnetization of ferrofluids directly or indirectly. On the base of the “compressing” model, the Langevin function that usually describes the magnetization of ferrofluid is modified, and a well-fitted curve is obtained. An equation of the relation between the equivalent volume fraction after being “compressed” and the intensity of magnetic field is discovered, which approximately describes the process of magnetization. The relation between the approximate initial susceptibility and the volume fraction can be obtained from modified formula.     

PHONONS IN POLYACENIC CHAINS

We have theoretically resolved phonon excitations in quasi-two-dimensional organic crystals of polyacenic semiconductor material which may be obtained by the pyrolytic treatment of phenol-formaldehyde resin. A model for studying the dynamical properties using three polyacene chains is proposed with the aim to present the vibrational properties of this structure. It employs the formalism of solid states in two dimensions which admit phonons. A simulation process of the two-dimensional lattice structure shows that elastic waves may explain the existence of vibrational modes in the frequency range 100-400 cm-1. The presence of acoustic and optical like phonons is discussed in terms of the elastic force constants. A hyperfine resonance structure is obtained. It allows the analysis of the dynamical evolution in thin films of polyacene. It is found that the behavior of the phonon density of states exhibits resonance between modes in the structure.     

液晶聚合物/柔性链聚合物共混体系相分离形态

利用元胞动力学方法在二维情况下对浓度、取向序参量的含时Ginzberg-Landau方程进行数值求解,研究了液晶聚合物/柔性链聚合物共混体系的相分离动力学,考察了浓度、取向有序过程的耦合对相分离形态的影响.结果表明,此耦合作用对相分离的时间进程以及相分离图样的空间排布都有影响.液晶聚合物的取向有序相当于增加了两组分间的不相容性而促进两相分离;两个序参量在热力学方面的耦合使液晶聚合物趋向于沿着界面方向取向,而动力学方面的耦合使液晶聚合物分子沿着其取向方向扩散,相分离图样的空间排布由这两种效应共同决定通过极化率张量的定义用数值方法模拟得到了相分离体系的小角光散射图样,结果表明,散射强度分布具有方位角依赖性,它是由浓度、取向序参量的空间变化共同决定的.     

Investigations of the Mechanism of Alternating Copolymerization with Charge-Transfer Interaction of the Monomers

The applicability of the method of Giese to the measurement of the influence of monomer reactivity is examined. The reaction of alkyl mercuric salts with sodium borohydride permits the production of alkyl (cyclohexyl and butyl) radicals. Since hydrogen radicals are present in high concentration, the addition of alkenes to the reaction mixture leads to radicals from the alkenes. Further addition of alkene (polymerization) can be nearly completely excluded in this way. The composition of the reaction products is determined by gas chromatography. The addition rate of the alkenes relative to styrene allows correlation with the e value of the Q-e scheme of Alfrey and Price. The method answers the question of how far addition of the monomer complex occurs in one step or as separate addition of both monomers during copolymerization in the presence of charge-transfer (CT) complexes of the monomers. The investigations are performed by using the styrene/acrylonitrile/ZnCl₂system, and it is demonstrated that the reactivity of the complexed     

Dielectric analysis of PMMA microcapsules containing an aqueous KCl solution to derive a distribution function of the release rate of KCl

Release of KCl from a batch of PMMA microcapsules containing an aqueous 3 mM KCl solution was studied with the following two methods: 1) dielectric measurements of suspensions of the microcapsules in distilled water. The electrical conductivity of capsule interior was estimated with this method. 2) Measurements of the conductivity of suspending medium of the microcapsule suspensions. These two kinds of experiments provided us with information about the amount of KCl remaining in the capsules and that diffused outside. Results of these experiments showed that the microcapsules varied in their release rate of KCl. A distribution function of the release rates was derived from the results of the dielectric measurements. That distribution function was successful in explaining the results of the measurements of the conductivity of suspending medium. Furrther examination revealed that the release rate increased with the increase in the thickness of capsule wall.     

Contributions to the Chemistry of the Binary Compounds of the Transition Elements

Phase and structural relationships of the sulfur, selenium, and tellurium compounds of the 4d and 5d transition elements of groups IV to VII of the periodic system are discussed. Homologous elements behave very similarly with respect to the chalcogens, and this is particularly the case for niobium and tantalum, and for molybdenum and tungsten. However, zirconium, niobium, and molybdenum have a greater tendency towards formation of chalcogen-poor phases than their homologues hafnium, tantalum, and tungsten. Subchalcogenides are known only for zirconium and niobium. The number of phases and the tendency towards formation of solid solutions are considerably smaller among the tellurides than among the sulfides and selenides. The crystal structures of the telluride phases also differ from those of the sulfide and selenide phases of analogous composition. In addition, a review of the phase and structural relationships of the arsenic and antimony compounds of the 4d and 5d transition elements of groups V to VII is given.

A NOVEL APPROACH TO RHEOLOGICAL CHARACTERIZATION FOR THE GELATION IN POLYMER CRYSTALLIZATION

The isothermal crystallizations of three kinds of commercial isotactic polypropylene have been studied by DSC and rheometric experiments, in a range of temperatures where the rate of crystallization is moderate. As the crystallization proceeds, volume contraction induces tensile force upon the parallel plates. The tensile force relaxed quickly in liquid states,but after a critical amount of the relative crystallinity, it starts to accumulate in the static test, that is, with the motionless parallel plates. A new method to determine the liquid-solid transition by the static tensile force is proposed and compared with two dynamic methods of detecting liquid-solid transition, that is, the power-law modulus theory and the yield modulus model. The tensile force method predicted considerably earlier transition than the dynamic methods, and the corresponding DSC data indicate relative crystallinity of larger than 0.2 at the transition times. The limitation of dynamic methods and other possible errors have been analyzed. While the dynamic methods are suitable for slow crystallization, the tensile force method is more appropriate for the crystallization of moderate rates. Moreover, it has the advantage of almost not disturbing the crystallizing materials before the transition.     

Chain dynamic parameters for some acrylic polymers

The dielectric relaxation data of Ishida et al. on a number of acrylic polymers are represented in terms of the relaxation function proposed by Havriliak and Negami using the multi-response techniques developed by Havriliak and Watts. Two of the parameters of this function are interpreted in terms of a temperature dependent distribution of relaxation times. In this method of interpretation the breadth of the distribution function is temperature-dependent while the skewness is not. The temperature dependence of the breadth of the distribution function is similar for most of these acrylic polymers.The parameters of the relaxation function are also interpreted in terms of Mansfield's model which represents intra- and inter-molecular interactions in terms of springs and dash pots. Briefly, increasing the side chain length for the methacrylate series increases the inter-molecular relaxation time which may be due to an increase in the entropy of activation for the orientation process. The difference between the one acrylate in this study and the four methacrylates of the series is a reduction in the intra-molecular relaxation time, apparently due to the lack of the alpha methyl group.     

Thermoelectric Properties of Czochralski GeSi Crystal

In order to discuss the application possibility of SiGe crystal in thermoelectric materials,we investigated the thermoelectric properties of several silicon-germanium alloys with different content,orientation and electric conductive type. As discussed in the experiment result,the absolute value of Seebeck coefficient fluctuates from 300 to 600 μV/K in the whole temperature range. In the present paper,the relationship of Seebeck coefficient against content,orientation and electric conductive type is summarized in detail. The Seebeck coefficient of the sample with <111> orientation is smaller than that in <100> at the same temperature. Absolute value of P-type is larger than that of N-type except pure Ge. But as the temperature increases,the absolute value of pure Ge decreases many times as quickly as that of other specimens. In addition,the specimens of bulk GeSi alloy crystals for experiment were grown by the Czochralski method through varying the pulling rate during the growing process.     

Thermochemistry of dissolution of sodium alkylsulfonates

The effect of temperature on the solubility of ionic surfactants was interpreted in terms of standard enthalpy and entropy of dissolution at reference temperature by considering the change in the heat capacity. The significant value of the latter quantity causes the curvature of the function logarithm of equilibrium constant (or solubility) vs. the reciprocal thermodynamic temperature. The solubility data for several sodium n-alkylsulfonates, published by Saito, Moroi, and Matuura, were interpreted by nonlinear regression analysis. It was found that both the enthalpy and entropy of dissolution decrease with the chain length. The heat capacity increases in the course of the dissolution process.

Bimodality of molecular mass distribution of polydienes obtained under the action of dilithium initiators in hydrocarbon media: the reasons,mathematical simulations,and their experimental testing

Bimodal molecular mass distribution (MWD) of polymers, obtained upon polymerization of hydrocarbon monomers in the nonpolar media under the action of dilithium initiators, is the consequence of separation of the reaction mixture into two phases. Bifunctional /living/ oligomers produce the insoluble sediment due to tetrameric association of the lithium active sites (the swollen gel-fraction). Part of the active site remains in the solution (the solfraction). Difference in the concentrations of the active sites into the phases leads to difference between the propagation rates of the /living/ chains and, as a result, to Bimodal MWD. The mathematical model of polymerization in the two-phase system is proposed. Satisfactory agreement between the calculations and the experiments is shown for butadiene polymerization in heptane under the action of 1,4-dilithiumpentane. Regulation of MWD up to the complete elimination of bimodality is possible via the programmed dosage of monomer and solvent into the reactor.     

Calculations of the distribution of trace impurities in cylindrical pores

The equilibrium distribution of a trace impurity and the self-diffusion coefficients of molecules of the base component and the trace impurity in narrow cylindrical pores were calculated using the lattice-gas model. Two types of lattice structures with six and eight closest neighbors were considered. The sizes of the base component and impurity molecules were taken to be identical. Lateral interactions were taken into account in the quasi-chemical approximation. The equilibrium distributions of the trace impurity across a pore section in the gas and liquid phases of the base component and at the interface for the case of capillary condensation were considered. The probability of existence of isolated dimeric clusters was estimated and the self-diffusion coefficients of the base component and trace impurity for a single-phase distribution of the base component were calculated. The effects of the energy of interaction of impurities with the pore walls and the concentration of the base component on the diffusion mobility of the impurities were analyzed. The concentration dependences of the partition coefficient for the trace impurity between the pore center and the pore wall and the concentration dependences of the self-diffusion coefficients for the trace impurity molecules become nonmonotonic with an increase in the base component concentration. These effects are due to the displacement of the impurity from the near-surface area to the bulk of a pore following an increase in the pore coverage by the base component and to higher mobility of the impurity in the free bulk of the pore. Further filling of the pore bulk reduces the mobility of all molecules. The energetics of intermolecular interactions also plays a certain role. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Reliability and uncertainty in the estimation of p<Emphasis Type="Italic">K</Emphasis><Subscript>a</Subscript> by least squares nonlinear regression analysis of multiwavelength spectrophotometric pH titration data

When drugs are poorly soluble then, instead of the potentiometric determination of dissociation constants, pH-spectrophotometric titration can be used along with nonlinear regression of the absorbance response surface data. Generally, regression models are extremely useful for extracting the essential features from a multiwavelength set of data. Regression diagnostics represent procedures for examining the regression triplet (data, model, method) in order to check (a) the data quality for a proposed model; (b) the model quality for a given set of data; and (c) that all of the assumptions used for least squares hold. In the interactive, PC-assisted diagnosis of data, models and estimation methods, the examination of data quality involves the detection of influential points, outliers and high leverages, that cause many problems when regression fitting the absorbance response hyperplane. All graphically oriented techniques are suitable for the rapid estimation of influential points. The reliability of the dissociation constants for the acid drug silybin may be proven with goodness-of-fit tests of the multiwavelength spectrophotometric pH-titration data. The uncertainty in the measurement of the pK _a of a weak acid obtained by the least squares nonlinear regression analysis of absorption spectra is calculated. The procedure takes into account the drift in pH measurement, the drift in spectral measurement, and all of the drifts in analytical operations, as well as the relative importance of each source of uncertainty. The most important source of uncertainty in the experimental set-up for the example is the uncertainty in the pH measurement. The influences of various sources of uncertainty on the accuracy and precision are discussed using the example of the mixed dissociation constants of silybin, obtained using the SQUAD(84) and SPECFIT/32 regression programs.

LOW DENSITY POLYETHYLENE/CLAY NANOCOMPOSITES MODIFIED BY ETHYLENE COPOLYMERS： EFFECTS OF FUNCTIONALIZED SEGMENTS ON MORPHOLOGY

Melt extrusion was used to prepare binary nanocomposites of ethylene copolymers and organoclay and trinary nanocomposites of low-density polyethylene （LDPE）, ethylene copolymer and organoclay. X-ray diffraction （XRD） and transmission electron microscopy （TEM） were used to analyze the structure of the clay phase and the morphology of the nanocomposites. Influences of the comonomer in the copolymer and the content of the copolymer on the morphology of the resulting nanocomposites were discussed. The binary and the trinary composites may form intercalated or exfoliated structures depending on the interaction between the copolymer and the clay layers and the content of the copolymer.     

PROPERTIES AND MORPHOLOGY OF UNSATURATED POLYESTER/ACRYLATE-TERMINATED POLYURETHANE/ORGANOMONTMORILLONITE NANOCOMPOSITES

Unsaturated polyester resin （UPR）/acrylate-terminated polyurethane （ATPU）/organo-modified montmorillonite （OMMT） nanocomposites were prepared by the in situ intercalative polymerization method. Samples were prepared by the sequential mixing, i.e. mixture of the ATPU and styrene （S） and OMMT were prepared in the first step; UPR was then added to the pre-intercalates of ATPU/S/OMMT. Results indicate that the mechanical properties and thermal properties of UPR/ATPU/OMMT nanocomposites greatly depend on the amount of ATPU and OMMT. Results show that the addition of ATPU could increase the impact strength of UPR/ATPU composites, but the tensile strength, flexural strength and heat resistance of the materials are obviously decreased. When the weight ratio between UPR, ATPU and OMMT were 82：15：3, the impact strength and heat distortion-temperature of nanocomposite were greatly improved, meanwhile there was little change for other properties of the nanocomposites. The synergistic enhancement effects of ATPU and OMMT on the composites were observed. The structures and morphology of the composites were investigated by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy.     

Chemical metrology, chemistry and the uncertainty of chemical measurements

Chemical results normally involve traceability to two reference points, the specific chemical entity and the quantity of this entity. Results must also be traceable back to the original sample. As a consequence, any useful estimation of uncertainty in results must include components arising from any lack of specificity of the method, the variation between repeats of the measurement and the relationship of the result to the original sample. Chemical metrology does not yet incorporate uncertainty arising from any lack of specificity from the method selected or the traceability of the result to the original sample. These sources of uncertainty may however have much more impact on the reliability of the result than will any uncertainty associated with the repeatability of the measurement. Uncertainty associated with sampling may amount to 50–1000% of the reported result. Chemical metrology must be expanded to include estimations of uncertainty associated with lack of specificity and sampling. Received: 29 May 2001 Accepted: 17 December 2001
