杂合型全局优化法优化水分子团簇结构

基于遗传算法、快速模拟退火及共轭梯度方法提出了一种快速的杂合型全局优化方法(fast hybrid global optimization algorithm, FHGOA),并将这一方法应用于TIP3P和TIPS2模型水分子团簇(H2O)n结构的优化.在进行TIP3P模型水分子团簇结构的优化过程中,发现了能量比文献值更低的团簇结构,且执行效率有较大提高.把该方法应用到优化TIPS2模型的水分子团簇,发现最优结构和采用TTM2-F模型优化的水分子团簇结构在n < 17时完全相同,为全表面结构;而在n=17、19、22时为单中心水分子笼状结构;在n=25、27时为双中心水分子笼状结构.说明随着团簇中水分子个数的增加,采用TIPS2和TTM2-F势能函数优化的团簇最优结构有相同的变化趋势.

Permeation of water as a tool for characterizing the effect of solvent, film thickness and water solubility in cellulose acetate membranes

Cellulose acetate membranes have been used in many applications; of particular interest are reverse osmosis systems, and as a neutral matrix for incorporation of different polymers (e.g., conducting polymers), inorganic ions (e.g., lanthanides) and organic (e.g., pharmaceutical) compounds. The properties of the new polymers derived from cellulose acetate or blends depend on those of cellulose acetate. This work presents an attempt to find links between thermodynamic and kinetic properties of cellulose acetate membranes in equilibrium with water. Water diffusion coefficients in cellulose acetate membranes are reported, measured with a simple water permeation technique. The comparison of these values with the percentage of water uptake and polymer thickness leads to interesting conclusions related with different polymer properties.     

Effects of supercritical CO2 exposure on diffusion and adsorption kinetics of CH4, CO2 and water vapor in various rank coals

The physico-chemical effects caused by supercritical CO₂ (ScCO₂) exposure is one of the leading problems for CO₂ storage in deep coal seams as it will significantly alter the flow behaviors of gases. The main objective of this study was to investigate the effects of ScCO₂ injection on diffusion and adsorption kinetics of CH₄, CO₂ and water vapor in various rank coals. The powdered coal samples were immersed in ScCO₂ for 30 days using a high-pressure sealed reactor. Then, the diffusion and adsorption kinetics of CH₄, CO₂ and water vapor in the coals both before and after exposure were examined. Results indicate that the diffusivities of CH₄ and CO₂ are significantly increased due to the combined matrix swelling and solvent effect caused by ScCO₂ exposure, which may induce secondary faults and remove some volatile matters that block the pore throats. On the other hand, the diffusivities of water vapor are reduced due to the elimination of surface functional groups with ScCO₂ exposure. It is concluded that density of the surface function groups is the controlling factor for water vapor diffusion rather than the pore properties. The unipore model and pseudo-first-order equation can simulate the diffusion and adsorption kinetics of CH₄ and CO₂ very well, but the unipore model is not capable of well describing water vapor diffusion. The effective diffusivity (D_e), diffusion coefficient (D) and adsorption rates (k₁) of CH₄ and CO₂ are significantly increased after ScCO₂ exposure, while the values of water vapor are decreased notably. Thus, the injection of ScCO₂ will efficiently improve the transport properties of CH₄ and CO₂ but hinder the movement of water molecules in coal seams.     

Small Water Clusters in Crystalline Hydrates

Small hydrogen-bonded water clusters have received much attention and are the subject of both theoretical and chemical research. The crystalline molecular host provides an environment for the stabilization of various topologies of water clusters. The present article deals with (H₂O) _n clusters, identified/observed crystallographically in respective crystalline hydrates. The structural details of water decamers, octamers, hexamers, tetramers, and dimers are described systematically.     

金属团簇在单晶表面的稳定性和扩散行为的Monte Carlo研究

The stability and diffusion behaviors of 1.3 MPa Pt, Pd, Ni and Cu clusters supported on Pd(001) surface were studied by the Monte Carlo method. The support surface can strongly influence the stability and diffusion behaviors of the supported clusters. The structure transition temperatures of the supported clusters are much lower than the melting temperatures of their corresponding free clusters due to the vibration coupling between the support and the clusters. The stability of the supported clusters depends on not only the strength of metal support interaction but also the strength of the metal metal interaction. The diffusion constants of supported 1.3 MPa clusters are similar to those of corresponding metal atoms. Combining the diffusion parameters with the critical temperature of the supported clusters, the thermal stability is closely related to the diffusion behaviors of the metal clusters.     

Permeation of nitrogen and water vapor through sulfonated polyetherethersulfone membrane

The novel polyetherethersulfone (PES-C) prepared from phenol-phthalein in our institute is an amorphous, rigid, tough material with good mechanical properties over a wide temperature range. To improve its water vapor permeability for the application of gas drying, the PES-C was sulfonated with concentrated sulfuric acid and transferred in sodium, cupric, and ferric salt forms. The sulfonation degree can be regulated by controlling the temperature and reaction time. Characterization of sulfonated PES-C in sodium form was made by IR. Some properties of the sulfonated PES-C, such as solubility, glass transition temperature, thermal stability, mechanical properties, and transport properties to nitrogen and water vapor have also been discussed. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
