Syndiotactic poly(methyl methacrylate (s-PMMA) may undergo aggregation in n-butyl chloride (n-BuCl) at temperatures below the theta temperature. The aggregation behavior of the s-PMMA with weight-average molecular weight M(w) =6.06 x 10(5) g mol(-1) was studied by a combination of static and dynamic laser-light-scattering experiments. A solution of concentration 1.12 x 10(-4) g mL(-1) was quenched from 50 degrees C (above the theta temperature in n-BuCl, 35 degrees C to 12 degrees C, and the aggregation process was measured over 60 h. The time dependence of M(w) the root-mean-square z-average radius of gyration < R(g) >, and the average hydrodynamic radius were used to monitor the growth of the aggregates, with the result M(w) approximately < R(g) > d(f) (where d(f) = 1.98 +/- 0.02), which implies the formation of a fractal aggregate. The observed fractal dimension, d(f), is close to that expected for a reaction-limited cluster aggregation for which d(f) = 2.1. In addition, atomic force microscopy was used to image the aggregates. 相似文献

Investigations were carried out on aqueous sols and gels of agar (extracted from red seaweed Gelidiella acerosa) to explore the growth of microdomains en route to gelation. Isothermal frequency sweep studies on gel samples revealed master plots showing power-law dependence of gel elastic modulus, |G*|, on oscillation frequency, omega as |G*| approximately omegan, independent of temperature, with 0.5Tg). The S(q,t) behavior close to the gel transition point (Tg approximately (38+/-3 degrees C determined from rheology) followed a stretched exponential function: S(t)=A exp(-t/ts)beta. The beta factor increased from 0.25 to 1 as the gel temperature approached 25 degrees C from Tg, and relaxation time, ts, showed a peak at T approximately 30 degrees C. The SLS data (in the sol state) suggested the scaling of scattered intensity, Is(q) approximately epsilon(-gamma) (epsilon=(T/Tg-1), T>Tg) with gamma=0.13+/-0.03, and the presence of two distinct domains characterized by a Guinier regime (low q) and a power-law regime (high q). Close to and above Tg (+2 degrees C), IS(q) scaled with q as Is(q) approximately q(-alpha) with alpha=2.2+/-0.2, which decreased to 1.4+/-1 just below Tg (-2 degrees C), implying a coil-helix transition for 0.2% (w/v) and 0.3% (w/v) samples. For a 0.01% sample, alpha=3.5+/-0.5 which indicated the presence of spherical microgels. 相似文献

Effect of temperature on the fluorescence anisotropy decay and the ultraslow component of solvation dynamics of coumarin 153 (C153) in a gamma-cyclodextrin (gamma-CD) nanocavity are studied using a picosecond set up. The steady-state anisotropy (0.13 +/- 0.01) and residual anisotropy (0.14 +/- 0.01) in fluorescence anisotropy decay in an aqueous solution containing 7 microM C153 and 40 mM gamma-CD are found to be quite large. This indicates formation of large linear nanotube aggregates of gamma-CD linked by C153. It is estimated that >53 gamma-CD units are present in each aggregate. In these aggregates with rise in temperature, the average solvation time ((obs)) decreases markedly from 680 ps at 278 K to 160 ps at 318 K. The dynamic Stokes shift is found to decrease from 800 cm(-1) at 278 K to 250 cm(-1) at 318 K. The fraction of dynamic Stokes shift (f(d)) detected in a picosecond set up is calculated using the Fee-Maroncelli procedure. The corrected solvation time ((corr) = f(d)<(tau(s)>(obs)) displays an Arrhenius type temperature dependence. From the temperature variation, the activation energy and entropy of the solvation process are determined to be 12.5 kcal M(-1) and 28 cal M(-1) K(-1), respectively. The ultraslow component and its temperature dependence are ascribed to a dynamic exchange between bound and free water molecules. 相似文献

In this investigation, a study of the self-assembly of electrostatically stabilized aqueous dispersions of nanometric lipid A-monophosphate clusters from Escherichia coli was carried out in three different volume-fraction regimes. The experimental techniques used in the investigation were osmotic pressure, static and quasielastic light scattering, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy, and small-angle x-ray scattering. Experiments were carried out at low ionic strength (I=0.1-5.0 mM NaCl) at 25 degrees C. At volume fractions between 1.5x10(-4)相似文献

The HO2 uptake coefficient (gamma) for inorganic submicrometer wet and dry aerosol particles ((NH4)2SO4 and NaCl) under ambient conditions (760 Torr and 296 +/- 2 K) was measured using an aerosol flow tube (AFT) coupled with a chemical conversion/laser-induced fluorescence (CC/LIF) technique. The CC/LIF technique enabled experiments to be performed at almost the same HO2 radical concentration as that in the atmosphere. HO2 radicals were injected into the AFT through a vertically movable Pyrex tube. Injector position-dependent profiles of LIF intensity were measured as a function of aerosol concentration. Measured gamma values for dry aerosols of (NH4)2SO4 were 0.04 +/- 0.02 and 0.05 +/- 0.02 at 20% and 45% relative humidity (RH), respectively, while those of NaCl were <0.01 and 0.02 +/- 0.01 at 20% and 53% RH, respectively. For wet (NH4)2SO4 aerosols, measured gamma values were 0.11 +/- 0.03, 0.15 +/- 0.03, 0.17 +/- 0.04, and 0.19 +/- 0.04, at 45%, 55%, 65%, and 75% RH, respectively, whereas for wet NaCl aerosols the values were 0.11 +/- 0.03, 0.09 +/- 0.02, and 0.10 +/- 0.02 for 53%, 63%, and 75% RH, respectively. Wet (NH4)2SO4 and NaCl aerosols doped with CuSO4 showed gamma values of 0.53 +/- 0.12 and 0.65 +/- 0.17, respectively. These results suggest that compositions, RH, and phase for aerosol particles are significant to HO2 uptake. Potential HO2 loss processes and their atmospheric contributions are discussed. 相似文献

The influence of surface and thermal denaturation of adsorbed beta-lactoglobulin (beta-Lg) on the flocculation of hydrocarbon oil droplets was measured at pH 3 and compared with that at pH 7. Oil-in-water emulsions (5 wt % n-hexadecane, 0.5 wt % beta-Lg, pH 3.0) were prepared that contained different levels of salt (0-150 mM NaCl) added immediately after homogenization. The mean particle diameter (d43) and particle size distribution of diluted emulsions were measured by laser diffraction when they were either (i) stored at 30 degrees C for 48 h or (ii) subjected to different thermal treatments (30-95 degrees C for 20 min). In the absence of salt, little droplet flocculation was observed at pH 3 or 7 because of the strong electrostatic repulsion between the droplets. In the presence of 150 mM NaCl, a progressive increase in mean particle size with time was observed in pH 7 emulsions during storage at 30 degrees C, but no significant change in mean particle diameter with time (d43 approximately 1.4 +/- 0.2 microm) was observed in the pH 3 emulsions. Droplet aggregation became more extensive in pH 7 emulsions containing salt (added before thermal processing) when they were heated above 70 degrees C, which was attributed to thermal denaturation of adsorbed beta-Lg leading to interdroplet disulfide bond formation. In contrast, the mean particle size decreased and the creaming stability improved when pH 3 emulsions were heated above 70 degrees C. These results suggest that the droplets in the pH 3 emulsions were weakly flocculated at temperatures below the thermal denaturation temperature of beta-Lg (T < 70 degrees C) but that flocs did not form so readily above this temperature, which was attributed to a reduction in droplet surface hydrophobicity due to protein conformational changes. The most likely explanation for the difference in behavior of the emulsions is that disulfide bond formation occurs much more readily at pH 7 than at pH 3. 相似文献

The formation of selective surface patch binding induced complex coacervates between polyions, chitosan (cationic polyelectrolyte), and alkali-processed gelatin (polyampholyte), both carrying similar net charge, was investigated for two volumetric mixing ratios: r = [chitosan]/[gelatin] = 1:5 and 1:10. Formation of soluble intermolecular complexes between gelatin and chitosan molecules was observed in a narrow range of pH, though these biopolymers had the same kind of net charge, which was evidenced from electrophoretic measurement. This clearly established the role played by selective surface patch binding driven interactions. The temperature sweep measurements conducted on these coacervate samples through rheology and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) studies yielded two characteristic melting temperatures located at approximately 68 +/- 3 degrees C and 82 +/- 3 degrees C. In the flow mode, the shear viscosity (eta) of the coacervate samples was found to scale with (power-law model) applied shear rate (gamma*) as eta(gamma*) approximately (gamma*)(-k); this yielded k = 0.76 +/- 0.2 (1 s(-1) < gamma* < 100 s(-1)), indicating non-Newtonian behavior. The static structure factor (I(q)) deduced from small angle neutron scattering (SANS) data in the low q (q is the scattering wavevector) (0.018 A(-1) < q < 0.072 A(-1)) region was fitted to the Debye-Bueche regime, I(q) approximately 1/(1 + zeta(2)q(2))2 that yielded a size of zeta approximately 215 +/- 20 A (for r = 1:10) and zeta approximately 260 +/- 20 A (for r = 1:5) samples, implying change in the size of inhomogeneities present with mixing ratio. In the intermediate q region, called the Ornstein-Zernike regime, I(q) approximately 1/(1 + xi(2)q(2)) gave a correlation length of xi approximately 10.0 +/- 2.0 A independent of the mixing ratio. The results taken together imply the existence of a weakly interconnected and heterogeneous network structure inside the coacervate phase separated by domains of polymer-poor regions. 相似文献

A detailed mechanistic study of the substitution behavior of a 3d metal heptacoordinate complex, with a rare pentagonal-bipyramidal structure, was undertaken to resolve the solution chemistry of this system. The kinetics of the complex-formation reaction of [Fe(dapsox)(H(2)O)(2)]ClO(4) (H(2)dapsox = 2,6-diacetylpyridine-bis(semioxamazide)) with thiocyanate was studied as a function of thiocyanate concentration, pH, temperature, and pressure. The reaction proceeds in two steps, which are both base-catalyzed due to the formation of an aqua-hydroxo complex (pK(a1) = 5.78 +/- 0.04 and pK(a2) = 9.45 +/- 0.06 at 25 degrees C). Thiocyanate ions displace the first coordinated water molecule in a fast step, followed by a slower reaction in which the second thiocyanate ion coordinates trans to the N-bonded thiocyanate. At 25 degrees C and pH <4.5, only the first reaction step can be observed, and the kinetic parameters (pH 2.5: k(f(I)) = 2.6 +/- 0.1 M(-1) s(-1), DeltaH(#)(f(I)) = 62 +/- 3 kJ mol(-1), DeltaS(#)(f(I)) = -30 +/- 10 J K(-1) mol(-1), and DeltaV(#)(f(I)) = -2.5 +/- 0.2 cm(3) mol(-1)) suggest the operation of an I(a) mechanism. In the pH range 2.5 to 5.2 this reaction step involves the participation of both the diaqua and aqua-hydroxo complexes, for which the complex-formation rate constants were found to be 2.19 +/- 0.06 and 1172 +/- 22 M(-1) s(-1) at 25 degrees C, respectively. The more labile aqua-hydroxo complex is suggested to follow an I(d) or D substitution mechanism on the basis of the reported kinetic data. At pH > or =4.5, the second substitution step also can be monitored (pH 5.5 and 25 degrees C: k(f(II)) = 21.1 +/- 0.5 M(-1) s(-1), DeltaH(#)(f(II)) = 60 +/- 2 kJ mol(-1), DeltaS(#)(f(II)) = -19 +/- 6 J K(-1) mol(-1), and DeltaV(#)(f(II)) = +8.8 +/- 0.3 cm(3) mol(-1)), for which an I(d) or D mechanism is suggested. The results are discussed in terms of known structural parameters and in comparison to relevant structural and kinetic data from the literature. 相似文献

Coupling molecular beacons to barcoded metal nanowires for multiplexed, sealed chamber DNA bioassays
Stoermer RL Cederquist KB McFarland SK Sha MY Penn SG Keating CD 《Journal of the American Chemical Society》2006,128(51):16892-16903
We have combined molecular beacon (MB) probes with barcoded metal nanowires to enable no-wash, sealed chamber, multiplexed detection of nucleic acids. Probe design and experimental parameters important in nanowire-based MB assays are discussed. Loop regions of 24 bases and 5 base pair stem regions in the beacon probes gave optimal performance. Our results suggest that thermodynamic predictions for secondary structure stability of solution-phase MB can guide probe design for nanowire-based assays. Dengue virus-specific probes with predicted solution-phase DeltaG of folding in 500 mM buffered NaCl of approximately -4 kcal/mol performed better than those with DeltaG > -2 or < -6 kcal/mol. Buffered 300-500 mM NaCl was selected after comparison of several buffers previously reported for similar types of assays, and 200-500 mM NaCl was found to be the optimal ionic strength for the hybridization temperatures (25 and 50 degrees C) and probe designs used here. Target binding to the surface as a function of solution concentration fit a Sips isotherm with Kd = 1.7 +/- 0.3 nM. The detection limit was approximately 100 pM, limited by incomplete quenching. Single base mismatches could be discriminated from fully complementary targets. Oligonucleotide target sequences specific for human immunodeficiency, hepatitis C, and severe acute respiratory viruses were assayed simultaneously in a no-wash, sealed chamber, multiplexed experiment in which each of three probe sequences was attached to a different pattern of encoded nanowires. Finally, we demonstrated that probe-coated nanowires retain their selectivity and sensitivity in a triplexed assay after storage for over 3 months. 相似文献

Transport of nanoscale latex spheres in a temperature gradient 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We use a micrometer-scale optical beam deflection technique to measure the thermodiffusion coefficient D(T) at room temperature (approximately 24 degrees C) of dilute aqueous suspensions of charged polystyrene spheres with different surface functionalities. In solutions with large concentrations of monovalent salts, < or approximately = 100 mM, the thermodiffusion coefficients for 26 nm spheres with carboxyl functionality can be varied within the range -0.9 x 10(-7) cm2 s(-1) K(-1) < D(T) < 1.5 x 10(-7) cm2 s(-1) K(-1) by changing the ionic species in solution; in this case, D(T) is the product of the electrophoretic mobility mu(E) and the Seebeck coefficient of the electrolyte, S(e) = (Q(C)* - Q(A)*)/2eT, D(T) = -S(e) mu(E), where and are the single ion heats of transport of the cationic and anionic species, respectively. In low ionic strength solutions of LiCl, < or approximately = 5 mM, and particle concentrations < or approximately = 2 wt %, D(T) is negative, independent of particle concentration and independent of the Debye length; D(T) = -0.73 +/- 0.05 x 10(-7) cm2 s(-1) K(-1). 相似文献

Formation of stable nanobubbles in aqueous solutions of water-soluble organic molecules is a spontaneous process. Using a combination of laser light scattering (LLS) and zeta-potential measurements, we investigated the effects of salt concentration and pH on their stability in alpha-cyclodextrin (alpha-CD) aqueous solutions. Our results reveal that the nanobubbles are unstable in solution with a higher ionic strength, just like colloidal particles in an aqueous dispersion, but become more stable in alkaline solutions. The zeta-potential measurement shows that the nanobubbles are negatively charged with an electric double layer, presumably due to adsorption of negative OH- ions at the gas/water interface. It is this double layer that plays a critical dual role in the formation of stable nanobubbles in aqueous solutions of water-soluble organic molecules, namely, it not only provides a repulsive force to prevent interbubble aggregation and coalescence but also reduces the surface tension at the gas/water interface to decrease the internal pressure inside each bubble. 相似文献

Contrast variation SANS investigation of composition distributions in mixed surfactant micelles 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Small angle neutron scattering measurements have been performed on three systems (HFDeP-d5-C (N-1(1,1,2,2-tetrahydroperfluorodecanoyl)pyridinium-d5 chloride)/C16PC in 63 mM NaCl; HFDeP-d5-C/C12PC in 200 mM NaCl, and as an example of an ideally mixed system, SDS/SDS-d25 in 200 mM NaCl) containing micelles formed in a binary mixture of surfactants, in order to investigate the composition distribution of the mixed micelles. The experimental data were collected varying the contrast between the average scattering length density of micelles and aqueous solvent by changing the H2O/D2O ratio. Analysis of data includes a model-independent approach--the indirect Fourier transformation method and direct modeling-simultaneous fit at all contrasts by the scattering from micelles of equal size and shape with composition distribution and an effective interaction. It has earlier been shown (Almgren, M.; Garamus, V. M. J. Phys. Chem. B 2005, 109, 11348) that for micelles of equal size, independent of the composition, and with negligible intermicellar interactions, the scattered intensity at zero angle varies quadratically with the contrast, with the minimum intensity at the nominal match point proportional to sigma2, the variance of the micelle composition distribution. Within the regular solution framework, the composition distribution and its variance are uniquely defined by the value of the interaction parameter and the micelle aggregation number. At 25 degrees C, the first system gave sigma = 0.37, corresponding to a broad, bimodal composition distribution, the second sigma = 0.22, a broad distribution with a shallow minimum at the midpoint. For SDS/SDS-d25, we found sigma = 0.006 +/- 0.030, which is a smaller value than that of the binominal composition distribution expected for an ideally mixed system. 相似文献

Extensive numerical simulations of diffusion-limited (DLCA) and reaction-limited (RLCA) colloidal aggregation in two dimensions were performed to elucidate the concentration dependence of the cluster fractal dimension and of the different average cluster sizes. Both on-lattice and off-lattice simulations were used to check the independence of our results on the simulational algorithms and on the space structure. The range in concentration studied spanned 2.5 orders of magnitude. In the DLCA case and in the flocculation regime, it was found that the fractal dimension shows a linear-type increase with the concentration phi, following the law: d(f)=d(fo)+aphi(c). For the on-lattice simulations the fractal dimension in the zero concentration limit, d(fo), was 1.451+/-0.002, while for the off-lattice simulations the same quantity took the value 1.445+/-0.003. The prefactor a and exponent c were for the on-lattice simulations equal to 0.633+/-0.021 and 1.046+/-0.032, while for the off-lattice simulations they were 1.005+/-0.059 and 0.999+/-0.045, respectively. For the exponents z and z', defining the increase of the weight-average (S(w)(t)) and number-average (S(n)(t)) cluster sizes as a function of time, we obtained in the DLCA case the laws: z=z(o)+bphi(d) and z'=z'(o)+b'phi(d'). For the on-lattice simulations, z(o), b, and d were equal to 0.593+/-0.008, 0.696+/-0.068, and 0.485+/-0.048, respectively, while for the off-lattice simulations they were 0.595+/-0.005, 0.807+/-0.093, and 0.599+/-0.051. In the case of the exponent z', the quantities z'(o), b', and d' were, for the on-lattice simulations, equal to 0.615+/-0.004, 0.814+/-0.081, and 0.620+/-0.043, respectively, while for the off-lattice algorithm they took the values 0.598+/-0.002, 0.855+/-0.035, and 0.610+/-0.018. In RLCA we have found again that the fractal dimension, in the flocculation regime, shows a similar linear-type increase with the concentration d(f)=d(fo)+aphi(c), with d(fo)=1.560+/-0.004, a=0.342+/-0.039, and c=1.000+/-0.112. In this RLCA case it was not possible to find a straight line in the log-log plots of S(w)(t) and S(n)(t) in the aggregation regime considered, and no exponents z and z' were defined. We argue however that for sufficiently long periods of time the cluster averages should tend to those for DLCA and, therefore, their exponents should coincide with z and z' of the DLCA case. Finally, we present the bell-shaped master curves for the scaling of the cluster size distribution function and their evolution when the concentration increases, for both the DLCA and RLCA cases. 相似文献

The influence of thermal processing on droplet flocculation in oil-in-water emulsions stabilized by either beta-lactoglobulin (primary emulsions) or beta-lactoglobulin-iota-carrageenan (secondary emulsions) at pH 6 has been investigated. In the absence of salt, the zeta-potential of the primary emulsion was less negative (-40 mV) than that of the secondary emulsion (-55 mV) due to adsorption of anionic iota-carrageenan to the anionic beta-Lg-coated droplet surfaces. The zeta-potential and mean diameter (d(43) approximately 0.3 microm) of droplets in primary and secondary emulsions did not change after storage at temperatures ranging from 30 to 90 degrees C. In the presence of 150 mM NaCl, the zeta-potential of the primary emulsion was much less negative (-27 mV) than that of the secondary emulsion (-50 mV), suggesting that the latter was less influenced by electrostatic screening effects. The zeta-potential of the primary emulsions did not change after storage at elevated temperatures (30-90 degrees C). The zeta-potential of the secondary emulsions became less negative, and the aqueous phase iota-carrageenan concentration increased at storage temperatures exceeding 50 degrees C, indicating iota-carrageenan desorbed from the beta-Lg-coated droplets. In the primary emulsions, appreciable droplet flocculation (d(43) approximately 8 microm) occurred at temperatures below the thermal denaturation temperature (T(m)) of the adsorbed proteins due to surface denaturation, while more extensive flocculation (d(43) > 20 microm) occurred above T(m) due to thermal denaturation. In the secondary emulsions, the extent of droplet flocculation below T(m) was reduced substantially (d(43) approximately 0.8 microm), which was attributed to the ability of adsorbed carrageenan to increase droplet-droplet repulsion. However, extensive droplet flocculation was observed above T(m) because carrageenan desorbed from the droplet surfaces. Differential scanning calorimetry showed that iota-carrageenan and beta-Lg interacted strongly in aqueous solutions containing 0 mM NaCl, but not in those containing 150 mM NaCl, presumably because salt weakened the electrostatic attraction between the molecules. 相似文献

The dynamics of aggregation of meso-tetrakis (p-sulfonatofenyl) porphyrin (TPPS4) in function of its concentration, pH and ionic strength was studied by optical absorption, fluorescence and resonance light scattering (RLS) techniques. In the region of pH, where TPPS4 exists in biprotonated form, the addition of NaCl induces the TPPS4 aggregation due to the formation of the "cloud" of counter ions around the TPPS4 molecule thus reducing electrostatic repulsion between the porphyrin molecules. The formation of this "cloud" shifts the pKa value to acid region (from 5.0 in the absence of salt to 4.5 at [NaCl] = 0.4 M), reduces the TPPS4 absorption in all spectral range and quantum yield and lifetime of fluorescence (from 0.27 to 0.17 and from 4.00+/-0.04 to 3.00+/-0.03 ns in the absence of salt and in the presence of NaCl, respectively). The aggregation process involves two successive stages: initially H aggregates are formed, which in time are transformed in J ones. The existence of these two stages was confirmed by the fluorescence and RLS data. The kinetics of the formation of J aggregates is characterized by the induction time t1 and the average growth time t2, which depend on both TPPS4 and salt concentrations. The induction period t1 appears as a result of initial formation of H aggregates and their successive transformation in J ones. At very high TPPS4 concentrations, the J aggregates are united in more complex structures such as hollow cylinders or helixes. 相似文献

The HOBr and HOCl uptake coefficient gamma on H(2)SO(4)-acidified submicron salt aerosol of known size distribution was measured in an atmospheric pressure laminar flow reactor. The interaction time of the trace gas with the aerosol was in the range 15 to 90 s and led to gamma values in the range 10(-4) to 10(-2). The acidity of the aerosol is essential in order to enable heterogeneous reactions of HOBr on NaCl, recrystallized sea salt (RSS) and natural sea salt (NSS) aerosols. Specifically, HOCl only reacts on acidified NSS aerosol with a gamma ranging from 0.4 x 10(-3) to 1.8 x 10(-3) at a relative humidity (rh) at 40 and 85%, respectively. Uptake experiments of HOBr on aqueous H(2)SO(4) as well as on H(2)SO(4)-acidified NaCl, RSS or NSS aerosol were performed for rh ranging from 40 to 93%. The gamma value of HOBr on acidified NSS reaches a maximum gamma = 1.9 x 10(-2) at rh = 76 +/- 1% and significantly decreases with increasing rh in contrast to acidified NaCl and RSS aerosols whose gamma values remain high at gamma = (1.0 +/- 0.2) x 10(-2) at rh >/= 80%. An explanation based on the formation of an organic coating on NSS aerosol with increasing rh is proposed. 相似文献

Excitation of the 4f3 ion Nd3+ in hexafluoroelpasolite lattices by synchrotron radiation of wavelength approximately 185 nm leads to fast 4f(2)5d --> 4f3 emission below 52,630 cm(-1) and slower 4f3 --> 4f3 emission from the luminescent states (4)F(3/2) gamma8u (11 524 cm(-1)) and 2G2(9/2) gamma8u (approximately 47,500 cm(-1)). The near-infrared emission is well-resolved, and a clear interpretation of the 4I(9/2) crystal field levels and of the one-phonon vibronic sideband is given. The excitation spectrum of the 2G2(9/2) emission enables clarification of the structure of the 4f(2)5d configuration (which extends from approximately 52,000 to 128,000 cm(-1)). Detailed energy level and intensity calculations have been performed, which provide simulations of the d-f emission and the f-d excitation spectra in good agreement with experiment. It is interesting that although the 4f3 2G2(9/2) gamma8u --> 4f3 4I(J) transitions are very weak in intensity compared with transitions terminating upon higher multiplet terms, most of the 4f(2)5d (3H) 4I(9/2) gamma8g --> 4f3 emission intensity resides in the transitions to 4I(J). 相似文献

Partially hydrophobised fumed silica particles are used to make silicone oil-in-water emulsions at natural pH of the aqueous phase. The stability and rheological properties of the emulsions and suspensions are studied at NaCl concentrations in the range 0-100 mM. It is found that all emulsions are very stable to coalescence irrespective of the NaCl concentration. However, a strong effect of electrolyte on the creaming and rheological properties is observed and linked to the particle interactions in aqueous suspensions. The creaming rate and extent are large at low electrolyte concentrations but both abruptly decrease at salt concentrations exceeding the critical flocculation concentration of the suspension (approximately 1 mM NaCl). The drastic improvement of the stability to creaming is attributed to the formation of a visco-elastic three-dimensional network of interconnected particles and emulsion droplets. 相似文献

The 0 K dissociative ionization onsets of C2H3X --> C2H3(+) + X (X = Cl, I) are measured by threshold photoelectron-photoion coincidence spectroscopy. The heats of formation of C2H3Cl (Delta H(f,0K)(0) = 30.2 +/- 3.2 kJ mol(-1) and Delta(H f,298K)(0) = 22.6 +/- 3.2 kJ mol(-1)) and C2H3I (Delta(H f,0K)(0) = 140.2 +/- 3.2 kJ mol(-1) and Delta(H f,298K)(0) = 131.2 +/- 3.2 kJ mol(-1)) and C- X bond dissociation enthalpies as well as those of their ions are determined. The data help resolve a longstanding discrepancy among experimental values of the vinyl chloride heat of formation, which now agrees with the latest theoretical determination. The reported vinyl iodide heat of formation is the first reliable experimental determination. Additionally, the adiabatic ionization energy of C2H3I (9.32 +/- 0.01 eV) is measured by threshold photoelectron spectroscopy. 相似文献
