Liquid fragility of the unsaturated polyester resin

Curing behaviors of the unsaturated polyester resin (UPR) containing 1–1.8 wt% methyl ethyl ketone peroxide (MEKP) initiator are investigated. The viscosity, gelation and vitrification transition of the UPR-MEKP systems are examined using the rotating viscometer and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). A liquid fragility parameter, M _c, defined as the viscosity variation rate of the liquids towards the curing temperature is presented. It is found that M _c has a good negative relation with the glass transition temperature (T _g) in the systems. M _c can be used for predicting the stability of the cured amorphous systems. The relationship between the liquid and cured thermoset polymer systems is studied from both the thermodynamic and kinetic point of view.     

Excellent degradation performance of azo dye by metallic glass/titanium dioxide composite powders

The metallic glass/titanium dioxide powders (MG/TiO₂) with enhanced photocatalytic oxidation activity were synthesized, which exhibit a higher efficiency in decolorizing methylene blue solutions (MB). Compared with the pure TiO₂ and crystalline alloy/TiO₂ (CA/TiO₂) under the same circumstances, its degradation rate was 60 % and 30 % higher, respectively. Furthermore, compared with the CA/TiO₂, the MG/TiO₂ photocatalytic rate was three times faster when decolorizing MB. Considering the excellent intrinsic high-performance photocatalytic degradation under visible light irradiation, these novel powders were proven to have potential applications in water purification industry.

热熔灌输法制备三维骨架支撑金属锂复合负极

金属锂因具有极高的理论比容量(3860 mAh/g)和最低的电化学势(相对于标准氢电极为-3.04 V),被认为是下一代高比能锂离子电池的首选负极材料。然而,金属锂负极在电池循环过程中发生的刺状枝晶生长和体积变化等问题严重阻碍了其产业化应用进程。近年来研究表明,通过在金属锂中引入具有三维(3D)结构的宿主骨架,不但能有效抑制锂枝晶的生长,而且可以缓解金属锂负极的体积变化,从而提高金属锂电池的循环性能与安全性。因此,设计3D骨架/金属锂复合负极被认为是一种能有效解决金属锂问题的新兴策略。本文综述了热熔灌输法制备3D骨架/金属锂复合负极的研究进展。首先讨论了当前基于3D骨架的预存金属锂技术,然后着重分析了热熔灌输策略中3D骨架锂润湿性的影响因素,以及不同3D骨架修饰特征和改性方法。最后对3D骨架/金属锂复合负极和热熔灌输策略现存问题进行了总结并提出未来的发展方向。     

Analytical analysis of anisotropic thermophoresis of a charged spheroidal colloid in aqueous media for extremely thin EDL cases

Thermophoresis of charged spheroids has been widely applied in biology and medical science. In this work, we report an analysis of the anisotropic thermophoresis of diluted spheroidal colloids in aqueous media for extremely thin EDL cases. Under the boundary layer approximation, we formulate the thermophoretic velocity, the thermophoretic force, and the thermodiffusion coefficient of a randomly dispersed spheroid. The parametric studies show that under the aforementioned conditions, the thermophoresis is anisotropic and its thermodiffusion coefficient should be considered as a vector, D _T. The thermodiffusion coefficient values and directions of D _T are strongly related to the aspect ratio and the angle θ between the externally applied temperature gradient and the particle's axis of revolution: The increasing aspect ratio enlarges the thermodiffusion coefficient value D_T of prolate (oblate) spheroids to a constant value when θ < 60° (θ > 45°), and it reduces D_T of prolate (oblate) spheroids to a constant value when θ > 60° (θ < 45°). The thermodiffusion coefficient direction of both prolate and oblate spheroids deviates slightly from −∇T_∞ for a small aspect ratio, and such deviation becomes serious for a large aspect ratio.     

铜修饰微电极阵列硝酸根检测（英文）

许多水域含有过量的硝酸根,会诱发许多问题。采用微机电系统工艺,制备出一种基于铂叉指微电极阵列的硝酸根离子(NO-3)检测微传感电极。通过电化学恒电位沉积法在铂叉指微电极阵列上修饰,得到多孔、簇状铜敏感膜。采用线性扫描伏安电化学检测方法,考察该微传感电极对NO-3的响应性能,在0~2mg/L浓度范围内,线性度为0.999,灵敏度为-3.15μA·L·mg-1。在相同沉积修饰条件下,叉指微电极比同等敏感面积(1mm2)的圆盘微电极表现出更强的催化活性和更高的灵敏度,分析其原因,认为主要是叉指微电极的结构和边缘效应造成的。     

Superthermostability of nanoscale TIC-reinforced copper alloys manufactured by a two-step ball-milling process

A Cu-TiC alloy, with nanoscale TiC particles highly dispersed in the submicron-grained Cu matrix, was manufactured by a self-developed two-step ball-milling process on Cu, Ti and C powders. The thermostability of the composite was evaluated by high-temperature isothermal annealing treatments, with temperatures ranging from 727 to 1273 K. The semicoherent nanoscale TiC particles with Cu matrix, mainly located along the grain boundaries, were found to exhibit the promising trait of blocking grain boundary migrations, which leads to a super-stabilized microstructures up to approximately the melting point of copper (1223 K). Furthermore, the Cu-TiC alloys after annealing at 1323 K showed a slight decrease in Vickers hardness as well as the duplex microstructure due to selective grain growth, which were discussed in terms of hardness contributions from various mechanisms.
