Surfactants are routinely used to control the breakup of drops and jets in many applications such as inkjet printing, crop spraying, and DNA or protein microarraying. The breakup of surfactant-free drops and jets has been extensively studied. By contrast, little is known about the closely related problem of interface rupture when surfactants are present. Solutions of a nonionic surfactant, pentaethylene glycol monododecyl ether, or C12E5, in water and in 90 wt % glycerol/water are used to show the effects of surfactant and viscosity on the deformation and breakup dynamics of stretching liquid bridges. Equilibrium surface tensions for both solutions can be fitted with the Langmuir-Szyskowski equation. All experiments have been done at 24 degrees C. The critical micelle concentrations for C12E5 are 0.04 and 0.4 mM in water and the glycerol/water solution, respectively. With high-speed imaging, the dynamic shapes of bridges held captive between two rods of 3.15 mm diameter are captured and analyzed with a time resolution of 0.1-1 ms. The bridge lengths are 3.15 mm initially and about 5-7 mm at pinch-off. Breakup occurs after stretching for about 0.2-0.3 s, depending on the solution viscosity and the surfactant concentration. When the liquid bridges break up, the volume of the sessile drop left on the bottom rod is about 3 times larger than that of the pendant drop left on the top rod. This asymmetry is due to gravity and is influenced by the equilibrium surface tensions. Surfactant-containing low-viscosity water bridges are shown to break up faster than surfactant-free ones because of the effect of gravity. With or without surfactant, water bridges form satellite drops. Surfactant-containing high-viscosity glycerol/water bridges break up more slowly than surfactant-free ones because of strong viscous effects. Moreover, the shapes of the sessile drops close to breakup exhibit a "pear-like" tip; whether a satellite forms depends on the surface age of the bridge before stretching commences. These unexpected effects arising from the addition of surfactants are due to the capillary pressure reduction and Marangoni flows linked to dynamic surface tension. 相似文献

Six cytotoxic and antimicrobial metabolites of a new bromo-phenazinone class, the marinocyanins A-F (1–6), were isolated together with the known bacterial metabolites 2-bromo-1-hydroxyphenazine (7), lavanducyanin (8, WS-9659A) and its chlorinated analog WS-9659B (9). These metabolites were purified by bioassay-guided fractionation of the extracts of our MAR4 marine actinomycete strains CNS-284 and CNY-960. The structures of the new compounds were determined by detailed spectroscopic methods and marinocyanin A (1) was confirmed by crystallographic methods. The marinocyanins represent the first bromo-phenazinones with an N-isoprenoid substituent in the skeleton. Marinocyanins A-F show strong to weak cytotoxicity against HCT-116 human colon carcinoma and possess modest antimicrobial activities against Staphylococcus aureus and amphotericin-resistant Candida albicans. 相似文献

Electron-beam lithography was used to pattern poly(styrene-co-(methyldiaminotriazine) styrene) (PS-Triaz). These polymer nanopatterns were utilized as molecular scaffolds for assembling complementary thymine-functionalized CdSe-ZnS quantum dots (Thy-QDs) via three-point hydrogen-bonding molecular recognition. This interaction was very specific, with N-methyl thymine-functionalized QDs (MeThy-QDs) not depositing on the surfaces. The "lock and key" specificity of the assembly is mirrored in the disassembly process, where complete removal of the QD was observed using a competing thymine guest. 相似文献

Hydrogen produced from the photocatalytic splitting of water is one of the reliable alternatives to replace the polluting fossil and the radioactive nuclear fuels. Here, we provide unequivocal evidence for the existence of blue- and red-shifting O-H covalent bonds within a single water molecule adsorbed on the MgO surface as a result of asymmetric displacement polarizabilities. The adsorbed H-O-H on MgO gives rise to one weaker H-O bond, while the other O-H covalent bond from the same adsorbed water molecule compensates this effect with a stronger bond. The weaker bond (nearest to the surface), the interlayer tunneling electrons and the silver substrate are shown to be the causes for the smallest dissociative activation energy on the MgO monolayer. The origin that is responsible to initiate the splitting mechanism is proven to be due to the changes in the polarizability of an adsorbed water molecule, which are further supported by the temperature-dependent static dielectric constant measurements for water below the first-order electronic-phase transition temperature. 相似文献

This paper is concerned with techniques for identifying simple and quantified lattice points in 2SAT polytopes. 2SAT polytopes generalize the polyhedra corresponding to Boolean 2SAT formulas, Vertex‐Packing (Covering, Partitioning) and Network flow problems; they find wide application in the domains of Program verification (Software Engineering) and State‐Space search (Artificial Intelligence). Our techniques are based on the symbolic elimination strategy called the Fourier‐Motzkin elimination procedure and thus have the advantages of being extremely simple (from an implementational perspective) and incremental. We also provide a characterization of a 2SAT polytope in terms of its extreme points and derive some interesting hardness results for associated optimization problems. Finally, we provide a brief discussion on the maximum size of a subdeterminant of the linear system representing a 2SAT polytope; this parameter plays a vital role in deriving analytical bounds on the size of the search space for checking whether the polyhedron includes a lattice point.

LiSmxMn2–xO4 samples were synthesized via co-precipitation technique. The structural properties of the synthesized materials were studied
using X-ray diffraction analysis and it confirmed the cubic spinel structure for all the compounds. The lattice parameter
of LiMn2O4 was observed to be 8.2347 Ǻ and it decreased with Sm3+ concentration, due to the shrinkage in cell volume aided by higher binding energy between Sm-O bond. The SEM micrographs
were analyzed using Image processing software (Image-J) to ascertain the pore and grain properties. The microwave synthesis
had been observed to control the bulk grain formation and had yielded lesser porous and nanoparticles. The particle size distributions
obtained through photocross correlation laser diffraction analysis had shown that LiMn2O4 with 60 nm and Sm-doped compounds with ∼30 nm, respectively. The cyclic voltammetry studies had revealed the decrease in
electrocatalytic behavior in the initial cycle for compounds doped with Sm3+ ion. The initial capacities of LiMn2O4, LiSm0.05Mn1.95O4 and LiSm0.10Mn1.90O4 substituted compounds were observed to be 134.87 mAhg−1, 132.22 mAhg−1 and 126.41 mAhg−1, respectively. The cells were simulated using 1D model namely Dualfoil5.1 program. The simulated results coincide well with
the measured results. The cycle life studies reveal 93% capacity retention of samarium-0.05-doped samples when compared with
78.4% of the LiMn2O4. 相似文献

In the present work, new classes of bio‐based polybenzoxazines were synthesized using eugenol as phenol source and furfurylamine and stearylamine as amine sources separately through solventless green synthetic process routes and were further reinforced with varying percentages (1, 3, 5, and 10 wt%) of silica (from rice husk) to attain hybrid composites. The molecular structure, cure behaviour, thermal stability, dielectric properties, and flame‐retardant behaviour of both benzoxazine monomers and benzoxazine composites were characterized using appropriate modern analytical techniques. The eugenol‐based benzoxazines synthesized using furfurylamine (FBz) and stearylamine (SBz) were cured at 223°C and 233°C, respectively. The differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) data reveal the glass transition temperatures (Tg) of FBz and SBz were 157°C and 132°C, respectively, and the maximum decomposition temperature (Tmax) as obtained from thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), were found to be 464°C and 398°C for FBz and SBz, respectively. The dielectric constants for FBz and SBz obtained at 1 MHz were 3.28 and 3.62, respectively. Furthermore, varying weight percentages (1, 3, 5, and 10 wt%) of 3‐mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane (3‐MPTMS) functionalized bio‐silica reinforced the composite materials as evidenced by their improved thermal stability and lower dielectric constant. Data obtained from thermal and dielectric studies suggested that these polybenzoxazines could be used in the form of adhesives, sealants, and composites for high performance inter‐layer low‐k dielectric applications in microelectronics. 相似文献

Biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles has received considerable attention due to their cost-effective, eco-friendly and medicinal values. In this study, silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) were synthesised using the aqueous leaf extracts of Piper nigrum. TEM images revealed that the particle is spherical with 20–50 nm in size. Furthermore, to evaluate the toxicity of synthesized Ag NPs, fish Labeo rohita were exposed to two different concentrations (2.5 µg/L as the treatment I and 5 µg/L as treatment II) for 35 days, and antioxidant parameters and histology of gill, liver and kidney were examined. A biphasic response in the activity of glutathione S-transferases (GST) was observed in gill and liver of fish. GST activity in the kidney of fish was significantly increased when compared to control group. Glutathione reductase (GR) activity in organs/tissue of fish were found to be increased while peroxidase (POD) activity was significantly decreased. Histopathological changes such as hyperplasia, proliferation of epithelial cells and fusion of lamellae were observed in both the concentrations. In liver, necrosis, nuclear degeneration and dilation of sinusoids were observed. Subsequently, the representative effects of POD activity were assessed based on the Box–Behnken Equation, 3-D contour plot and ANOVA analysis through response surface methodology analysis. 相似文献

The purpose of this research is to study the synthesis and characterization of stable aqueous dispersions of externally chain extended polyurethane/urea compositions terminated by hydrolyzable or hydrolyzed trialkoxysilane groups incorporated through secondary amino groups. These dispersions with excellent storage stability are substantially free from organic solvents which cure to water and solvent resistant, tough, scratch resistant, preferably light stable (non‐yellowing) silylated polyurethane (SPU) films. The films were characterized by FT‐IR, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), tensile strength and water contact angle measurements, nanoindentation, gel content, water and xylene swellability tests. The properties of the films were discussed and correlated in detail by changing length of soft segment, diisocyanates, NCO/OH ratio and chain extender, ethylenediamine (EDA). From the results, it was found that the particle size and viscosity are lower whereas the gel content and thermal stability are higher for SPUs. Modulus, hardness and tensile properties of SPU films are superior compared to EDA‐PU film. Higher water contact angle and residual weight percentage of SPU films confirm silylation of PU by [3‐(phenylamino)propyl]trimethoxysilane (PAPTMS). Increase in NCO/OH ratios consumes more quantity of PAPTMS which makes PU with superior mechanical properties. Higher PAPTMS content in SPU results in effective crosslinking of the functional silanol groups formed by hydrolysis reaction of trimethoxysilane groups. Overall, SPUs synthesized at 1.4 NCO/OH ratio using Poly‐(oxytetramethylene)glycol (PTMG)‐2000 and isophorone diisocyanate (or) toluene‐2,4‐diisocyanate have excellent properties compared to SPUs prepared using PTMG‐1000 and at 1.2 and 1.6 NCO/OH ratios. SPUs prepared at 1.6 NCO/OH ratio are brittle due to higher crosslinking density. In addition, the crosslinking density of the films can be modified through silane end‐group modification to produce SPUs with a wide range of physical properties.
