关于聚合物非晶态X衍射表征函数的探讨

<正> 目前许多学者已采用计算机X衍射分峰法对具有较复杂结构的结晶聚合物进行研究.这个方法的核心是数学模型,即反映晶态与非晶态的X衍射峰峰形规律的表征函数.它对研究结果的可靠性、精确度有直接的影响.Hindeleh与Johnson等人提出的三次多项式及其它形式,不能使样品的计算的衍射曲线与实验的衍射曲线相拟合,误差大.说明表征非晶态X衍射的数学模型还存在问题,分峰法还不完善.因此,我们认为有必要对非晶态表征函数进行探讨.本文提出了两个非晶态表征函数,并应用于聚丙烯结构分析,     

The chemical states of tellurium produced by spontaneous fission of252Cf

The distribution of the chemical states of tellurium isotopes produced by²⁵²Cf spontaneous fission, collected separately in the matrixes of NaCl, Kl, NaF, CH₃COONa·3H₂O, Na₂SO₄ and NaNO₃ crystals have been investigated. Two chemical states of tellurium isotopes maintained in these matrixes are Te(IV) and Te(VI). The relationships between the distribution of the chemical states of tellurium isotopes and the produced mode of tellurium, the chemical properties of collection matrixes, the time for collecting fission fragments are studied and the possible mechanism of the interactions of the fission products and the matrixes is discussed. The results show that the distribution of chemical states of tellurium isotopes depends on the chemical properties of the collection matrixes mainly.     

Determination of lactate or oxalate using injected lactate oxidase and peroxidase by capillary electrophoresis with UV detection

Two reactions, catalyzed by lactate oxidase (LO) and peroxidase, are initiated by a single injection of the enzymes and the substrate 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylene-thiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) into the capillary previously filled with the sample (lactate or lactate-oxalate mixture) and the run buffer containing NADH. The oxidized ABTS product upon reaction with NADH is converted to NAD(+) which is separated and detected in less than 2 min at 266 nm with a sample throughput of 7 min (including wash steps between samples). Simplex trade mark software is used to optimize the enzyme concentrations and reaction temperature. Consumption of the more expensive LO enzyme is only 1.4 x 10(-3) U per assay assuming 27 nL per injection. Linearity is established within the range from 0.0025 to 1 mM with R(2) of 0.9982. Recoveries of lactate from five spiked serum samples averaged 101%. Application of this method for the determination of oxalate as an inhibitor of LO is demonstrated.     

Fe(II) in different macrocycles: electronic structures and properties

A theoretical comparative study of complexes of porphyrin (P), porphyrazine (Pz), phthalocyanine (Pc), porphycene (Pn), dibenzoporphycene (DBPn), and hemiporphyrazine (HPz) with iron (Fe) has been carried out using a density functional theory (DFT) method. The difference in the core size and shape of the macrocycle has a substantial effect on the electronic structure and properties of the overall system. The ground states of FeP and FePc were identified to be the 3A2g [(d(xy))2(d(z)2)2(d(pi))2] state, followed by 3E(g) [(d(xy))2(d(z)2)1(d(pi))3]. For FePz, however, the 3E(g)-3A2g energy gap of 0.02 eV may be too small to distinguish between the ground and excited states. When the symmetry of the macrocycle is reduced from D4h to D2h, the degeneracy of the d(pi) (d(xz), d(yz)) orbitals is removed, and the ground state becomes 3B2g [(d(xy))2(d(z)2)1(d(yz))2(d(xz))1] or 3B3g [...(d(yz))1(d(xz))2] for FePn, FeDBPn, and FeHPz. The calculations also show how the change of the macrocycle can influence the axial ligand coordination of pyridine (Py) and CO to the Fe(II) complexes. Finally, the electronic structures of the mono- and dipositive and -negative ions for all the unligated and ligated iron macrocycles were elucidated, which is important for understanding the redox properties of these compounds. The differences in the observed electrochemical (oxidation and reduction) properties between metal porphycenes (MPn) and metal porphyrins (MP) can be accounted for by the calculated results (orbital energy level diagrams, ionization potentials, and electron affinities).     

LiM2(NCN)Br3 (M = Sr,Eu): Synthesis and Crystal Structures of Solid‐State Carbodiimides with Empty Tetrahedral Metal Entities

Two solid‐state carbodiimide compounds, LiM₂(NCN)Br₃ (M = Sr, Eu), with characteristic empty tetrahedral M₄ entities have been synthesized using a flux route, and their structures were determined by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. The new phases LiSr₂(NCN)Br₃ and LiEu₂(NCN)Br₃ are isotypical with the corresponding iodides and crystallize in the cubic system (( , Z = 16) but with smaller unit cells (a = 14.641(1) Å for LiSr₂(NCN)Br₃ and 14.572(1) Å for LiEu₂(NCN)Br₃). The extended structures comprise two interpenetrating three‐dimensional networks: the first one is built from isolated M₄ tetrahedra capped by NCN^2? anions on their triangular faces while the second is made from vertex‐sharing LiBr₆ octahedra. The linear NCN^2? anions exhibit the symmetrical carbodiimide shape and serve as linkers between the tetrahedral entities.     

Synthesis, Structure and Conductivity of the New Charge-transfer Salt (ET)_2(CH_2=CH-CH_2-SO_3)·H_2O

ET is one of the most famous electron-donor molecules, which forms charge-transfer complexes (abbr. CT-complexes) with various types of counterions. These complexes have received intense attention because a wide range of physical properties such as conductivity and superconductivity1, ferromagnetism2-4 and nonlinear optical properties5 was found in these materials. Although the majority of the ET-based CT-complexes were prepared by combining with inorganic counterions, CT-complexes with o…

Effects of soluble surfactants on the deformation and breakup of stretching liquid bridges

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.
