Non-isothermal kinetics of dehydration of equilibrium swollen poly(acrylic acid) hydrogel</o:p>

Summary Kinetics of dehydration of equilibrium swollen poly(acrylic acid) hydrogel was investigated using methods of non-isothermal thermal analysis. Methods of Kissinger, Coats-Redfern, Van Krevelen and Horowitz-Metzger were applied for determination the kinetics parameters: activation energy (E), pre-exponent (lnA) as well as the kinetics model ƒ(69) for the process of hydrogel dehydration under different heating rates. An existence of good agreement between determined values of kinetic parameters (Eand A), which were obtained applying different methods under the same heating rate. Functional relationship between changes of kinetic parameters of dehydration and changes of heating rate was established. An existence of compensation effect is accepted and explanation of compensation effect appearance during the hydrogel dehydration is suggested.     

Synthesis and characterization of perfluorohexylated poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)

The perfluorohexylated 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene 5 was prepared via Mitsunobu reaction of perfluorohexylatyed diol 2 with diethyl 3,4-dihydroxythiophenedicarboxylate followed by decarboxylation. The polymerization of 5 was conducted with both oxidative chemical and electrochemical polymerizations. The polymers were characterized by cyclic voltammogram, UV, IR, TGA and DSC.     

Ab-initio molecular dynamics based on non-local density functional procedure with Gaussian basis; study of structural and temperature behaviour of metallic clusters

An ab-initio molecular dynamics procedure without precalculation of the Born-Oppenheimer energy surface based on an iterative non-local density functional method employing Gaussian atomic basis has been developed. Analytical gradients are calculated and used for the propagation of nuclei. Sufficiently long trajectories can be calculated at an acceptable computational cost, allowing for analysis of dynamical behaviour of small metallic clusters. This is illustrated on an example of the Li₈ cluster. Temperature behaviour of different type of isomers has been investigated. Calculated power spectra allow to identify the presence of more than one isomeric forms along the given trajectories.     

等离子体辅助合成分子筛膜及其催化性能的研究

首次将等离子体技术应用于分子筛膜的制备，研究了以微波等离子体处理基材表面分子筛膜前驱体辅助水热反应合成支撑β型分子筛膜．利用XRD、SEM、XPS、BET、TPD表征了分子筛膜的物相、形貌、孔结构、表面元素组成和表面酸性，并通过甲醇与异丁烯液相反应体系实验考察了分子筛膜的催化性能．结果表明，等离子体处理能有效改善分子筛膜前驱体在基材表面的分散状况，减小了分子筛膜晶体的尺度，使晶体大小均匀，形成的膜致密、牢固．与采用常规方法合成的分子筛膜相比，等离子体辅助合成的分子筛膜对甲醇与异丁烯的反应有更好的催化活件．     

双臂型方酰胺多齿配体的合成

自1959年发现方酸以来,已有许多文献报道其可以与多种金属离子,尤其是过渡金属离子形成配合物,但方酰胺多齿配体的研究却不多。在方酰胺内鎓盐中,二氧环丁烯具有电荷分离特性,其上的氧原子带部分负电荷,是理想的配体原子。如果以它为中心,对称地引入具有配位能力的分子片段,如甘醇     

Electrocatalysis by foreign metal monolayers: Oxidation of formic acid on platinum

It was demonstrated that some foreign metal monolayers formed by underpotential deposition have pronounced catalytic effects on the oxidation of formic acid on platinum. The explanation of these effects was sought within the framewor of existing data on the formic acid oxidation and the underpotential deposition. It was found that the catalytic effect of foreign metal monolayers originates in the decrease of hydrogen adsorption thus preventing the formation of the main poisoning species COH. At the same time these experiments confirm the previously postulated mechanism of formation of the poisoning species involving adsorbed hydrogen.     

1,3-双(N-取代苯氨基)方酸内鎓盐的合成

在方酸内鎓盐中,四碳环的电荷分离使其氧原子带部分负电荷,成为潜在的良好配位基。 据此,作者于前文中合成了以双苯氨基方酸内鎓盐为骨架、苯环的2—位对称引入多甘醇醚氧 链的多齿配体,并以它们为萃取剂或电活性物质成功地实现了水相中UO_2~(2 )的萃取及碱水中NH_3 的测定。如果配基链由苯环的2—位移至N上,整个配体分子的几何及电子结构将发生改变, 四碳环上的氧与侧链的匹配情况也将不同。此外,苯环上的取代基将可能通过共轭体系直接影响 四碳环上氧的电荷状态及配位能力。因此,本文合成并研究了一类新的1,3—双(N—取代苯氨基) 方酸内鎓盐型多齿配体2(a～h)(见下式)。     

On a problem connected with zeros of ζ(s) on the critical line

The existence of zeros ofZ ^(k)(t) in short intervals of the type [T, T+H] is established, whereHT ^a(k)logT, . Hitherto the sharpest bounds for the constanta(k) are obtained by employing a certain exponential averaging technique and the estimation of the relevant exponential sums. Bounds for are also derived, under the assumption that orZ(t) does not vanish in certain short intervals.
