Adsorption of nitrogen from natural gas by clinoptilolite

Much of world’s natural gas reserves are impure, one of the principal contaminants being nitrogen which makes it unsuitable for application and, hence, its separation is important. In this research, clinoptilolite, the most abundant natural zeolite with an open aluminosilicate framework structure and high internal surface area, was modified by ion exchange process to highly exchanged forms of cations of Na⁺, K⁺ and H⁺. The adsorption of N₂, CH₄ and C₂H₆ on natural clinoptilolite (Cp) and on its cation-exchanged forms (Na-Cp, K-Cp and H-Cp) was studied at 25 °C. The influence of cation exchange on equilibrium adsorption of N₂ showed that selectivity decreased in the order of Cp > Na-Cp > K-Cp and H-Cp has no affinity to nitrogen.     

Correlation of Moments and Critical Phenomenon in Disassembly of Hot Nuclei

We used Monte Carlo method to generate the configurations of disassembly of hot nucleus Au* based on the Atomic Mass Table and the conservation of mass and charge number.The resulted charge distribution of fragments was then used to calculate the conditional moments.The logarithm correlation between second and third moments of experimental charge distribution is very well reproduced by theory.It seems that no connection to the critical phenomenon of concerned system exists.     

THE EFFECT OF THE FREEZE-OUT VOLUME IN THE MULTIFRAGMENTATION OF VERY HOT NUCLEAR REMNANT

In this paper a simplified method for the calculation of average Coulomb energy in statistical model of the disassembly processes of hot nuclei is proposed.The effect of freeze-out volume is studied based on the assumption of Gaussion-like distribution.It is indecated that the centre and dispersion of Gaussion-like distribution somewhat reflect the location and the renge of liquid-gas coexistence phase.     

THE EVIDENCE OF DECONFINEMENT PHASE TRANSITION OF SU(2) LATTICE GAUGE MODEL BY MONTE CARLO METHOD

In this paper,we have calculated the SU(2) lattice gauge by the Monte Carlo method.For the finite temperature problem 8³×4 lattice is used and for the zero temperature problem 8⁴ lattice.From the calculations of the energy density,heat capacity and entropy density,the results indicate that there is a deconfinement phase transition when T/Λ_L=40—50.     

DIRECT SIMULATION OF DEEP INELASTIC SCATTERING OF HEAVY-IONS (I) ONE PARAMETER DISTRIBUTION

The distributions of dynamic variables in the deep inelastic scattering (DIS) of heavy-ions are studied by a direct simulation technique based on the single-nucleon-transfer-mechanism. The relative motion of the two collision partners is described by a Lagrange equation, and the transition probability of a single nucleon during the interaction time is calculated by the statisti-cal spectroscopy method.The occurrence of the transition event and the corresponding change of the dynamic variables are both treated randomly according to the transition probability. The calculated results for the reaction of ⁴⁰Ar+⁵⁸Ni(E_L=280MeV) are compared with experimental data.     

Exploration for Degradation of Λ Polarization Produced in Relativistic Nucleus Nucleus Collisions

The degradation of Λ transverse polarization produced in S+Pb central collisions at energy 200 GeV per nucleon has been studied in detail. The S+Pb central collision events have been generated using Monte-Carlo generator——LUCIAE at 200 GeV per nucleon. The various factors degrading Λ transverse polarization have been analysed quantitatively. The ratios of Λ′s produced from rescattering, secondary production and decays of Σ, Ξ hyperons to the total measurable Λ′s in experiment have been investigeted and the degradation effect of these Λ on the total polarization has been determined. The simulation and calculation show that above three factors decrease the Λ transverse polarization strongly, however, can not eliminate the polarization completely when the Λ′s are assumed to be produced from hadronic gas in the final state. To explan the experimental data of vanished Λ polarization, it probably needs to consider new mechanisms of Λ production, including a weak effect of QGP formation.

Development and validation of a HPLC method for the determination of buprenorphine hydrochloride, naloxone hydrochloride and noroxymorphone in a tablet formulation

A simple isocratic reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic method (RP-HPLC) was developed for the simultaneous determination of buprenorphine hydrochloride, naloxone hydrochloride dihydrate and its major impurity, noroxymorphone, in pharmaceutical tablets. The chromatographic separation was achieved with 10 mmol L⁻¹ potassium phosphate buffer adjusted to pH 6.0 with orthophosphoric acid and acetonitrile (17:83, v/v) as mobile phase, a C-18 column, Perfectsil Target ODS3 (150 mm × 4.6 mm i.d., 5 μm) kept at 35 °C and UV detection at 210 nm. The compounds were eluted isocratically at a flow rate of 1.0 mL min⁻¹. The average retention times for naloxone, noroxymorphone and buprenorphine were 2.4, 3.8 and 8.1 min, respectively. The method was validated according to the ICH guidelines. The validation characteristics included accuracy, precision, linearity, range, specificity, limit of quantitation and robustness. The calibration curves were linear (r > 0.996) over the concentration range 0.22-220 μg mL⁻¹ for buprenorphine hydrochloride and 0.1-100 μg mL⁻¹ for naloxone hydrochloride dihydrate and noroxymorphone. The recoveries for all three compounds were above 96%. No spectral or chromatographic interferences from the tablet excipients were found. This method is rapid and simple, does not require any sample preparation and is suitable for routine quality control analyses.     

Fabrication of modified TiO2 nanoparticle carbon paste electrode for simultaneous determination of dopamine, uric acid, and l-cysteine

A carbon paste electrode, modified with 2, 2′-[1,7-hepthandiylbis(nitriloethylidyne)]-bis-hydroquinone and TiO₂ nanoparticles, was used for the simultaneous determination of dopamine (DA), uric acid (UA), and l-cysteine. The study was carried out by using cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry, and square wave voltammetry (SWV) techniques. Some kinetic parameters such as the electron transfer coefficient (α) and heterogeneous rate constant (k_s) were also determined for the DA oxidation. A dynamic range of 8.0–1400 μM, with the detection limit of 8.4 × 10⁻⁷ M for DA, was obtained using SWV (pH = 7.0). The prepared electrode was successfully applied for the determination of DA, UA, and l-cysteine in real samples.
