赤铁矿和三羟铝石吸附Cu~(2+)的红外光谱研究

应用红外光谱法,研究了不同pH值和Cu2+浓度条件下,合成赤铁矿和三羟铝石吸附Cu2+后表面羟基结构及其特征吸收峰的变化。结果表明:(1)随Cu2+浓度增加,赤铁矿表面H—O—H和OH的变形振动参与了吸附反应,Cu2+强烈地缔结在Fe—O上,形成了Fe—O—(Cu)结构。(2)酸性条件下,H+破坏了赤铁矿表面的O—H结构,NO3-促使弱峰1 131 cm-1的产生。随pH值增大,赤铁矿表面OH-逐渐由伸缩振动转变为变形振动,Fe—OH和Fe3+—O2-结构不断发生改变。(3)三羟铝石对Cu2+的吸附发生在高波位,随Cu2+浓度增大,其表面游离羟基的O—H弯曲振动、水分子的OH-伸缩振动和H—O—H弯曲振动均参与了吸附反应,Al—O基中的Al3+渐被Cu2+取代从而加强了较低波位的振动强度。(4)随pH值增加,三羟铝石Al—OH的弯曲振动和Al—O的伸缩振动逐渐发生着改变,表明吸附Cu2+后,在其表面形成了AlOCu+与AlOCuOH结构。     

A simple solution-immersion process for the fabrication of superhydrophobic cupric stearate surface with easy repairable property

The present work reports a simple and time-saving method to fabricate cupric stearate film on zinc substrate by a solution-immersion process. Superhydrophobic surfaces are conventionally prepared employing two steps: roughening a surface and lowering its surface energy. The fabrication of superhydrophobic cupric stearate surface is reported using a one-step process by immersing a zinc plate coated with copper into the stearic acid solution, simplifying the complexity of two different steps involved in the conventional methods. The surface of the zinc plate coated with copper is found to be covered with low surface energy cupric stearate film providing the water contact angle of 160 ± 1° with the rolling off properties. In addition, the damaged superhydrophobic surface can restore superhydrophobicity property by immersing the surface into the stearic acid solution again.     

A note on allocation of portfolio shares of random assets with Archimedean copula

This paper further studies the single-period portfolio allocation of risk assets under the assumption that random returns having increasing utility and Archimedean copula. The shares of risk assets in the optimal allocation are proved to be ordered when marginal returns have the likelihood ratio order, and sufficient conditions for the joint density of returns of a multivariate risk to be arrangement increasing is built as well.     

On allocating redundancies to k‐out‐of‐ n reliability systems

For two components in series and one redundancy with their lifetimes following the proportional hazard models, we build the likelihood ratio order and the hazard rate order for lifetimes of the redundant systems. Also, for k ‐out‐of‐ n system with components’ lifetimes having the arrangement increasing joint density and the redundancies having identically distributed lifetimes, allocating more redundancies to weaker components is shown to help improve the system's reliability.

SYNTHESIS OF MELEZITOSE DERIVATIVES

The reactivity of melezitose hydroxyls is studied during tritylation in pyridine. Some novel derivatives of melezitose are prepared. An acetyl is transferred from the 4- to the 6-position after detritylation of 3 and 4. The structures of the products are proved by elemental analysis; ¹ H, ¹³ C, and ¹ H- ¹ H COSY NMR spectra;IR spectra; and fast-atom bombardment mass spectrometry.     

Focal plane wave-front sensing algorithm for high-contrast imaging

High-contrast imaging provided by a coronagraph is critical for the direction imaging of the Earth-like planet orbiting its bright parent star. A major limitation for such direct imaging is the speckle noise that is induced from the wave-front error of an optical system. We derive an algorithm for the wave-front measurement directly from 3 focal plane images. The 3 images are achieved through a deformable mirror to provide specific phases for the optics system. We introduce an extra amplitude modulation on one deformable mirror configuration to create an uncorrelated wave-front, which is a critical procedure for wave-front sensing. The simulation shows that the reconstructed wave-front is consistent with the original wave-front theoretically, which indicates that such an algorithm is a promising technique for the wave-front measurement for the high-contrast imaging.
