Growth of tetrahedral silver nanocrystals in aqueous solution and their SERS enhancement

Silver nanocrystals with tetrahedral shapes and {111} faces have been synthesized by the light-driven growth method in an aqueous solution. The nanocrystals of T(d) symmetry were formed under the effect of tartrate and citrate as the structural-directing reagents at the appropriate stages of reaction. Further, the nanocrystals may be assembled through electrostatic interaction to develop large-scale particle surfaces with sharp vertexes, which can generate strong localized electromagnetic field for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) studies. Benzenethiol was used as the probe to evaluate their SERS enhancement, and enhancement factors of up to 10(6) are reached. As a kind of promising material, these novel nanocrystals will be applied in surface enhanced spectroscopy and plasmonics field.

Ab initio study of the role of entropy in the kinetics of acetylene production in filament-assisted diamond growth environments

We present a new theoretical strategy, ab initio rate constants plus integration of rate equations, that is used to characterize the role of entropy in driving high-temperature/low-pressure hydrocarbon chemical kinetics typical of filament-assisted diamond growth environments. Twelve elementary processes were analyzed that produce a viable pathway for converting methane in a feed gas to acetylene. These calculations clearly relate the kinetics of this conversion to the properties of individual species, demonstrating that (1) loss of translational entropy restricts addition of hydrogen (and other radical species) to unsaturated carbon-carbon bonds, (2) rotational entropy determines the direction of the rate-limiting abstraction reactions, and (3) the overall pathway is enhanced by high beta-scission reaction rates driven by translational entropy. These results suggest that the proposed strategy is likely applicable to understand gas-phase chemistry occurring in the systems of combustion and other chemical vapor depositions.     

Quality evaluation of Shenmaidihuang Pills based on the chromatographic fingerprints and simultaneous determination of seven bioactive constituents

In this study, we aimed to establish a comprehensive and practical quality evaluation system for Shenmaidihuang pills. A simple and reliable high‐performance liquid chromatography coupled with photodiode array detection method was developed both for fingerprint analysis and quantitative determination. In fingerprint analysis, relative retention time and relative peak area were used to identify the common peaks in 18 samples for investigation. Twenty one peaks were selected as the common peaks to evaluate the similarities of 18 Shenmaidihuang pills samples with different manufacture dates. Furthermore, similarity analysis was applied to evaluate the similarity of samples. Hierarchical cluster analysis and principal component analysis were also performed to evaluate the variation of Shenmaidihuang pills. In quantitative analysis, linear regressions, injection precisions, recovery, repeatability and sample stability were all tested and good results were obtained to simultaneously determine the seven identified compounds, namely, 5‐hydroxymethylfurfural, morroniside, loganin, paeonol, paeoniflorin, psoralen, isopsoralen in Shenmaidihuang pills. The contents of some analytes in different batches of samples indicated significant difference, especially for 5‐hydroxymethylfurfural. So, it was concluded that the chromatographic fingerprint method obtained by high‐performance liquid chromatography coupled with photodiode array detection associated with multiple compounds determination is a powerful and meaningful tool to comprehensively conduct the quality control of Shenmaidihuang pills.

Optimization of High Temperature-Resistant Modified Starch Polyamine Anti-Collapse Water-Based Drilling Fluid System for Deep Shale Reservoir

During drilling in deep shale gas reservoirs, drilling fluid losses, hole wall collapses, and additional problems occur frequently due to the development of natural fractures in the shale formation, resulting in a high number of engineering accidents such as drilling fluid leaks, sticking, mud packings, and buried drilling tools. Moreover, the horizontal section of horizontal well is long (about 1500 m), and the problems of friction, rock carrying, and reservoir pollution are extremely prominent. The performance of drilling fluids directly affects drilling efficiency, the rate of engineering accidents, and the reservoir protection effect. In order to overcome the problems of high filtration in deep shale formations, collapse of borehole walls, sticking of pipes, mud inclusions, etc., optimization studies of water-based drilling fluid systems have been conducted with the primary purpose of controlling the rheology and water loss of drilling fluid. The experimental evaluation of the adsorption characteristics of “KCl + polyamine” anti-collapse inhibitor on the surface of clay particles and its influence on the morphology of bentonite was carried out, and the mechanism of inhibiting clay mineral hydration expansion was discussed. The idea of controlling the rheology and water loss of drilling fluid with high temperature resistant modified starch and strengthening the inhibition performance of drilling fluid with “KCl + polyamine” was put forward, and a high temperature-resistant modified starch polyamine anti-sloughing drilling fluid system with stable performance and strong plugging and strong inhibition was optimized. The temperature resistance of the optimized water-based drilling fluid system can reach 180 °C. Applied to on-site drilling of deep shale gas horizontal wells, it effectively reduces the rate of complex accidents such as sticking, mud bagging, and reaming that occur when resistance is encountered during shale formation drilling. The time for a single well to trip when encountering resistance decreases from 2–3 d in the early stages to 3–10 h. The re-use rate of the second spudded slurry is 100 percent, significantly reducing the rate of complex drilling accidents and saving drilling costs. It firmly supports the optimal and rapid construction of deep shale gas horizontal wells.
