Nanocomposites based on an ethylene–vinyl acetate copolymer (27 wt.‐% vinyl acetate) and multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) have been prepared by melt blending and their thermal degradation and flame retardant properties have been evaluated. Special attention has been paid to the influence of the nanotube nature on the flammability properties and more particularly on the time to ignition (TTI) as measured by cone calorimetry. It has been shown that there is a strong influence of the nature of carbon nanotubes on the fire behaviour of the composites, especially previous MWNTs crushing proved to substantially delay the TTI while maintaining much reduced heat release rate (HRR). Such a remarkable behaviour might be explained by the chemical reactivity of radical species present at the surface/extremities of crushed MWNTs during the combustion process.
A mesh independent bound is given for the superlinear convergence of the CGM for preconditioned self-adjoint linear elliptic problems using suitable equivalent operators. The results rely on K-condition numbers and related estimates for compact Hilbert-Schmidt operators in Hilbert space.This research was supported by the Hungarian National Research Fund OTKA under grant No. T043765. 相似文献
The part families with precedence constraints problem (PFP) arises in industry, when flexible manufacturing systems are designed within a group technology approach. The aim of this problem is to arrange parts into families by imposing capacity constraints, concerning both the number of parts and processing times, besides precedence constraints in the building of families. 相似文献
Humic substances (HS) and other substance of similar nature (“building blocks” of HS, such as salicylates or phthalates) influence strongly a polarographic behaviour of europium at a mercury drop electrode. An addition of these substances into the supporting electrolyte causes an enhancement of the differential pulse polarographic (DPP) peak of Eu and an anodic shift of the maximum peak potential. It was deduced from the dependence of the peak height on the pulse time and from other experimental dependencies that an adsorption of the Eu-HS (salicylate, phthalate) complexes on the working electrode is the main mechanism responsible for the peak enhancement. Because no peak distortion or splitting were observed, the DPP determination of Eu can be realised readily in the presence of HS, e.g. in environmental samples. The sensitivity of the measurements increased in the presence of HS, whereas the limit of detection (LOD) decreased (LODs were 255 and 140 nmol/l in the absence and in the presence of HS, respectively). However, the calibration dependencies were non-linear in the presence of HS. It was found that the non-linear calibration dependencies may be approximated by the Langmuir-type equation. Special procedures, such as a method of (at least) two standard additions and numerical iterative calculations, are necessary for an evaluation of measurements. 相似文献
Photocyclization of 1, 1′-Polymethylene-di-2-pyridones . Benzophenone sensitized irradiation of the four dipyridones 1-4 gave the internal photocyclization products 6 (64%, Scheme 4), 7 (60%, Scheme 5), 8 (Scheme 6), and 11 (26%, Scheme 7), respectively. The decamethylene compound 5 yielded only polymeric material. The primary [2+2] photoproduct 8 from dipyridone 3 (Scheme 6) is relatively unstable. Further irradiation or heating to 65° induced a Cope rearrangement to give compound 9 which, on heating to 137°, was converted into the isomeric compound 10 . This product, as well as the other photoproducts mentioned, are rearranged back to their respective starting materials upon direct irradiation with 254 nm light or by heating to higher temperatures. The various possibilities for cycloadditions of pyridones are discussed as well as the possible factors which are responsible for the highly regioselective photoreactions of the dipyridones 1–4 . 相似文献
Properties and suitability of the 10,11-dihydro-5 H-dibenzo[a, d]cyclohepten-5-yl group (= 5-dibenzosuberyl group) as a new protecting group for amines, amino-acids, alcohols, thiols and carboxylic acids. The 10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d]cyclohepten-5-yl group (5-dibenzosuberyl group): has been found useful for protecting amines, alcohols, thiols, and carboxylic acids. Furthermore, the investigated 5-amino compounds are extremely stable in strongly acidic media (e. g. in hydrogen bromide) and still the amino group is easily cleaved under mild conditions, such as those used for N-trityl compounds (e.g. boiling in dilute acetic acid or catalytic hydrogenation). Hence this ring system could be a valuable and adaptable protecting group, especially in peptide chemistry. 相似文献
The 22.4 GeV/c \(\bar p\) p interactions with the leading particle and the slow proton subtracted are used as data on soft processes. Considerable similarity between them and hard processes, such ase+e? annihilation into hadrons, is found by means of studying charged multiplicities, KNO scaling and longitudinal as well as transverse spectra. 相似文献
