Aggregation behavior and thermodynamic properties of two novel homologous aromatic moiety bearing hybrid fluorocarbon surfactants, sodium 2-(2-(4-ethylphenyl)-1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethoxy)-1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethanesulfonate (1) and sodium 2-(1,1,2,2-tetrafluoro-2-(4-vinylphenyl)ethoxy)-1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethanesulfonate (2) were studied using surface tension measurements and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) in dilute aqueous solutions at room temperature. Because of the aromatic group in the hydrophobic tail, both surfactants are soluble at room temperature unlike their starting precursor, 5-iodooctafluoro-3-oxapentanesulfonate as well as several other fluorocarbon sulfonic acid salts. Moreover, the surfactant 2 has the ability that it can be polymerized once microemulsions are formed with it. The ionic conductivity measurements of 1 at five different temperatures from 288 to 313 K were carried out to study the effect of temperature on the micellization and its thermodynamics. The pseudophase separation model was applied to estimate thermodynamic quantities from conductivity data. The Gibbs energy of micellization versus temperature exhibited the characteristic U-shaped behavior with a minimum at 306 K. The micellization process was found to be largely entropy driven. Because of its hybrid structure, the entropy change of micellization for 1 was larger than what is common for hydrocarbon surfactants like SDS but less than for fully fluorinated surfactants like NaPFO. The micellization process was found to be following the entropy-enthalpy compensation phenomena. 相似文献
The parity-violating cross-section asymmetry in the elastic scattering of polarized electrons from unpolarized protons has been measured at a four-momentum transfer squared Q2 = 0.624 GeV2 and beam energy E(b) = 3.48 GeV to be A(PV) = -23.80 ± 0.78(stat) ± 0.36(syst) parts per million. This result is consistent with zero contribution of strange quarks to the combination of electric and magnetic form factors G(E)(s) + 0.517G(M)(s) = 0.003 ± 0.010(stat) ± 0.004(syst) ± 0.009(ff), where the third error is due to the limits of precision on the electromagnetic form factors and radiative corrections. With this measurement, the world data on strange contributions to nucleon form factors are seen to be consistent with zero and not more than a few percent of the proton form factors. 相似文献
In this paper we present a pulse sequence that combines a displacement-encoded stimulated echo with rapid sampling of k-space by means of turbo spin echo imaging. The stimulated echo enables the use of long observation times between the two pulsed field gradients that sample q-space completely. Propagators, constructed with long observation times, could discriminate slowly flowing protons from diffusing protons, as shown in a phantom in which a plug flow with linear velocity of 50microm/s could clearly be distinguished from stationary water. As a biological application the apparent diffusion constant in longitudinal direction of a transverse image of a maize plant stem had been measured as a function of observation time. Increasing contrast in the apparent diffusion constant image with increasing observation times were caused by differences in plant tissue: although the plant stem did not take up any water, the vascular bundles, concentrated in the outer ring of the stem, could still be discerned because of their longer unrestricted diffusional pathways for water in the longitudinal direction compared to cells in the parenchymal tissue. In the xylem region of a tomato pedicel flowing water could be distinguished from a large amount of stationary water. Linear flow velocities up to 0.67 mm/s were measured with an observation time of 180 ms. 相似文献
We treat wave equations with “scalar nonlinearities” and demonstrate the connection between the bifurcation theory of an associated system of Hammerstein integral equations and the existence of periodic solutions of the nonlinear wave equation. 相似文献
Two-center zero-field splitting (ZFS) integrals have been calculated by numerical integration of Coulomb repulsion integrals which are evaluated over basic charge distributions as defined by Roothaan in terms of Slater atomic orbitals. The method is applied to the calculation of the ZFS integrals for -, - and - electron interactions on C, N and N+ centers. Numerical results are given.

As a first step towards modelling real time-series, we study a class of real-variable, bounded processes \(\{X_{n}, n\in \mathbb{N}\}\) defined by a deterministic \(k\)-term recurrence relation \(X_{n+k} = \varphi (X _{n}, \ldots , X_{n+k-1})\). These processes are noise-free. We immerse such a dynamical system into \(\mathbb{R}^{k}\) in a slightly distorted way, which allows us to apply the multidimensional techniques introduced by Saussol (Isr. J. Math. 116:223–248, 2000) for deterministic transformations. The hypotheses we need are, most of them, purely analytic and consist in estimates satisfied by the function \(\varphi \) and by products of its first-order partial derivatives. They ensure that the induced transformation \(T\) is dilating. Under these conditions, \(T\) admits a greatest absolutely continuous invariant measure (ACIM). This implies the existence of an invariant density for \(X_{n}\), satisfying integral compatibility conditions. Moreover, if \(T\) is mixing, one obtains the exponential decay of correlations.
Three environmentally friendly extraction techniques, membrane assisted solvent extraction (MASE), stir bar sorptive extraction (SBSE), and headspace solid phase microextraction (HS‐SPME), were compared for the direct analysis of the highly toxic rodenticide tetramine in food. The optimized MASE method was applied to seven foods fortified with tetramine and compared to previously reported SBSE and HS‐SPME results. Parameters such as the standard addition linearity (MASE (0.964–0.999), SBSE (0.966–0.999), HS‐SPME (0.955–0.999)), recovery (MASE (12–86%), SBSE (36–130%), HS‐SPME (50–200%)), reproducibility (MASE (3.0–30%), SBSE (4.4–9.6%), HS‐SPME (1–12%)), and LOD (MASE (1.6–6.4 ng/g), SBSE (0.2–2.1 ng/g), HS‐SPME (0.9–4.3 ng/g)) were compared. 相似文献
7-Dialkylamino- and 7-alkylsulfenyl-1-alkylquinolinium salts have been synthesized using a novel synthetic approach. The key intermediate, 7-fluoro-1-methylquinolinium iodide, was shown to possess high reactivity toward nitrogen and sulfur nucleophiles, and the kinetics of this nucleophilic aromatic substitution reaction was investigated. A wide variety of compounds were synthesized and characterized spectroscopically. High fluorescence quantum yields were observed, and this was attributed to the rigid molecular architecture. The thermal and photochemical stability of a number of compounds was investigated, and it was demonstrated that 7-dialkylamino-1-methylquinolinium salts have superior stability compared to a number of hemicyanine dyes and rigid charge-transfer probes. Based on the high quantum yields, the large Stokes shifts, and in particular, the high thermal and photochemical stability, it is concluded that 7-dialkylamino-1-methylquinolinium salts are excellent color-shifting, mobility-sensitive fluorescent probes for polymer characterization and other demanding applications. 相似文献
