The performance and safety of lithium (Li) metal batteries can be compromised owing to the formation of Li dendrites. Here, the use of a polymer of intrinsic microporosity (PIM) is reported as a feasible and robust interfacial layer that inhibits dendrite growth. The PIM demonstrates excellent film-forming ability, electrochemical stability, strong adhesion to a copper metal electrode, and outstanding mechanical flexibility so that it relieves the stress of structural changes produced by reversible lithiation. Importantly, the porous structure of the PIM, which guides Li flux to obtain uniform deposition, and its strong mechanical strength combine to suppress dendrite growth. Hence, the electrochemical performance of the anode is significantly enhanced, promising excellent performance and extended cycle lifetime for Li metal batteries. 相似文献
In this paper, the concepts of weak invexity and weak quasi invexity are introduced and the relations among several kinds of generalized invexity are studied for nonsmooth functions by means of the properties of limiting subdifferentials. In addition, the relations between generalized invexity of a nonsmooth function and generalized invariant monotonicity of its limiting subdifferential mapping are researched. Our results here are an extension and generalization of those presented by M. Soleimani-damaneh. 相似文献
A new, simple and rapid capillary electrophoresis-mass spectrometry (CE-MS) method, using a cationic polymer-coated capillary to reverse electroosmotic flow, is proposed and validated for the separation and simultaneous quantification of 11 gibberellins (GAs). Under optimum conditions, a baseline separation of 11 GAs, including GA1, GA3, GA4, GA5, GA6, GA7, GA13, GA19, GA20, GA24 and GA53 was accomplished within 25 min using 70 mM ammonium formate/formic acid buffer (pH 3.8) and 2% (v/v) acetonitrile with -25 kV as the separation voltage. Satisfactory results were obtained in terms of linearity (R2 between 0.984 and 0.995), precision (RSD of migration time below 0.8%) and sensitivity (LOD between 0.31 and 1.02 microM). Furthermore, a novel solid-phase extraction (SPE) procedure was developed for the pre-concentration and purification of GAs using Oasis MAX cartridges. The combination of SPE and CE-MS approach was applied to screen for endogenous GAs present in coconut (Cocos nucifera L.) water sample. To illustrate the applicability of the method, GA1 and GA3 were successfully detected and quantified in coconut water. Finally, the GA1 and GA3 identities were further unequivocally confirmed by CE-tandem MS experiments operating in the multiple reaction monitoring mode. 相似文献
In this work, we collected 101 geothermal water samples to investigate comprehensively the radioactivity of geothermal water in Beijing. The concentrations of gross beta, 226Ra and 222Rn were measured and the obtained values were in the range of 0.032–7.060, 0.023–0.363 and 0.470–29.700 Bq/L, respectively. The samples with higher concentration of 222Rn were found to be located near large faults. The effective dose of 222Rn in the air for three cases were calculated to be greater than radiation dose limit of 1 mSv/a. 相似文献
A simple and convenient method has been developed for synthesis of water‐soluble CdTe quantum dots (QDs) under ambient atmospheric conditions. In contrast to the traditional aqueous synthesis, green to red emitting CdTe QDs were prepared by using TeO2 to replace Te or Al2Te3 as tellurium source in this method. The influences of experimental variables, including pH value, 3‐mercaptopropionic acid (MPA)/Cd and Te/Cd molar ratios, on the emission peak and photoluminescence (PL) quantum yield (QY) of the obtained CdTe QDs have been systematically investigated. Experimental results indicate that green to red emitting CdTe QDs with a maximum photoluminescence quantum yield of 35.4% can be prepared at pH 11.3 and n(Cd):n(Te):n(MPA)=1:0.1:1.7. 相似文献
In this study, a self-prepared complex chiral selector, di-n-butyl d-tartrate-boric acid complex, by the reaction of di-n-butyl d-tartrate with boric acid in a running buffer was used as a chiral selector for the enantioseparation of three β-agonists including clenbuterol, cycloclenbuterol and tulobuterol by means of microemulsion electrokinetic chromatography (MEEKC). Three β-agonists were successfully enantioseparated using the chiral system, indicating that the di-n-butyl d-tartrate-boric acid complex was a useful chiral selector. The effects of di-n-butyl d-tartrate and sodium tetraborate concentration, surfactant concentration, cosurfactant, phosphate, buffer pH and composition, as well as applied voltage were extensively investigated to achieve a good enantioseparation. The di-n-butyl d-tartrate and sodium tetraborate concentration in the running buffer had great influence on the chiral resolution (Rs). Three β-agonists which could not be separated with only di-n-butyl d-tartrate, obtained good chiral separation using the complex chiral selector; among them, two pairs including clenbuterol and cycloclenbuterol could be baseline resolved in 7 min under optimized experimental conditions of 0.8% (w/v) di-n-butyl d-tartrate, 40 mM sodium tetraborate, 3.0% (w/v) Tween-20 and 60 mM sodium dihydrogen phosphate with 25 kV as running voltage. The results indicated that the method could be used for the enantioseparation of three β-agonists.
10-Hydroxycamptothecin (HCPT) loaded PLA microbubbles, used as an ultrasound-triggered drug delivery system, were fabricated by a double emulsion-solvent evaporation method. The obtained microbubbles were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM). In addition, the effect of diagnostic ultrasound exposure on BEL-7402 cells combined with HCPT-loaded PLA microbubbles was evaluated using cytotoxicity assay, CLSM and flow cytometry (FCM). It was found that the HCPT-loaded PLA microbubbles showed smooth surface and spherical shape, and the drug was amorphously dispersed within the shell and the drug loading content reached up to 1.69%. Nearly 20% of HCPT was released upon exposure to diagnostic ultrasound at frequency of 3.5 MHz for 10 min. Moreover, HCPT fluorescence in the cells treated only with the HCPT-loaded PLA microbubbles was discernible, but less intense, while those treated with the microbubbles in conjunction with ultrasound exposure was evident and intense, indicating an increased cellular uptake of HCPT by ultrasound exposure. Cytotoxicity test on BEL-7402 cells indicated that the HCPT-loaded PLA microbubbles combined with ultrasound exposure were more cytotoxic than the microbubbles alone. The results suggest that the combination of drug loaded PLA microbubbles and diagnostic ultrasound exposure exhibit an effective intracellular drug uptake by tumor cells, indicating their great potential for antitumor therapy. 相似文献
