The reaction of 2‐methoxybenzyl alcohol with one molar equiv of R2AIX in diethyl ether at 0°C gives [(2‐MeOC6H4CH2‐μ‐O)AlRX]2 ( 1 : R = Et, X = Cl, 2 : R = X = Et). In addition, 2,4‐di‐tert‐butylphenol reacts with iBu3Al affording a four‐coordinated aluminum compound [(μ‐2,4‐tBu2‐C6H4O)Al(iBu)2]2 ( 4 ). Single crystal X‐ray structure analysis of 4 shows a C2h‐symmetry with a planar Al2O2 core. Ring‐opening polymerization (ROP) of caprolactones initiated by 1, 4 and [(μ‐OCH2C6H4OMe)Al(iBu)2]2 ( 3 ) is performed and polyesters with narrow molecular weight distributions were obtained from the “living” ROP of caprolactones. 1H NMR spectroscopic studies of PCL reveal that the initiator of 1 and 3 is through the Al‐OAr function, but the initiator of 4 is through the Al‐ iBu group. 相似文献
Maternal and Child Health (MCH) centres in Hong Kong offer, for children aged below six and women of childbearing age, a comprehensive range of health services regularly performed by nurses of different ranks. While each rank has its specific duties, nurses of a higher rank can step down to the work of a more junior rank when necessary. However, cross-regional deployments of nurses occur less frequently. We develop goal programming models of ‘optimal’ MCH nurses allocation. The presence and absence of nurses’ ‘cross-over’ of work functions are explicitly considered. The results show that more equitable manpower levelling can be achieved, with flexibility (in the longer term) on cross-regional deployment of nurses as a possible way of operational improvement when the entire MCH service is taken as a whole. 相似文献
Based on the investigation of the influence of temperatures on
parameters, including polarization, electron mobility, thermal conductivity,
and conduction band discontinuity at the interface between AlGaN and GaN,
the temperature dependence of transconductance for AlGaN/GaN heterojunction
field effect transistors (HFETs) has been obtained by using a
quasi-two-dimensional approach, and the calculated results are in good
agreement with the
experimental data. The reduction in transconductance at high
temperatures is
primarily due to the decrease in electron mobility in the channel.
Calculations also demonstrate that the self-heating effect becomes serious
as environment temperature increases. 相似文献
Summary: In the present study, electrospinning of hyaluronic acid (HA) and hyaluronic acid/gelatin (HA‐GE) blends in N,N‐dimethylformamide (DMF)/water‐mixed solvents have been investigated. When the volume ratio of DMF to water was in the range of 1.5–0.5, HA solutions could be electrospun into fibrous membranes successfully. The average diameter of HA fibers was about 200 nm. The HA‐GE composite nanofibrous membranes with varied HA/GE weight ratio in the range of 100/20–100/100 have also been successfully fabricated. The average diameter of HA‐GE fibers was in the range of 190–500 nm. The decrease in surface tension could promote fiber formation. Thus, an introduction of DMF that could decrease the surface tension distinctively, without significant change or increase in viscosity of the solution, could bypass the use of blowing‐assisted electrospinning. Our postulated picture is that the lower surface tension could help the ejection of stream with relatively high viscosity and reduce or prevent the droplet formation during the spinning process.

Summary: Cellulose was dissolved rapidly in 9.5 wt.‐% NaOH and 4.5 wt.‐% thiourea aqueous solution pre‐cooled to −5 °C to prepare a transparent solution. Novel cellulose multi‐filament fibers were spun successfully, for the first time, from the cellulose dope on an extended laboratory scale. The results from 13C NMR, scanning electron microscopy and wide angle X‐ray diffraction (WAXD) patterns indicated that the fibers exhibited cellulose II character and possessed a circular cross‐section and smooth surface. The tensile strength of the novel fibers reached 1.9–2.2 cN · dtex−1. 2D WAXD and SAXS patterns revealed that, with a drawing progress, the orientation factor increased and mechanical properties were improved.

In this paper, the synchronization and the parameter identification
of the chaotic Pikovsky--Rabinovich (PR) circuits are investigated.
The linear error of the second corresponding variables is used to
change the driven chaotic PR circuit, and the complete
synchronization of the two identical chaotic PR circuits is realized
with feedback intensity k increasing to a certain threshold. The
Lyapunov exponents of the chaotic PR circuits are calculated by
using different feedback intensities and our results are confirmed.
The case where the two chaotic PR circuits are not identical is also
investigated. A general positive Lyapunov function V, which
consists of all the errors of the corresponding variables and
parameters and changeable gain coefficient, is constructed by using
the Lyapunov stability theory to study the parameter identification
and complete synchronization of two non-identical chaotic circuits.
The controllers and the parameter observers could be obtained
analytically only by simplifying the criterion dV/dt<0
(differential coefficient of Lyapunov function V with respect to
time is negative). It is confirmed that the two non-identical
chaotic PR circuits could still reach complete synchronization and
all the unknown parameters in the drive system are estimated exactly
within a short transient period. 相似文献
"A series of 15%Co/Al2O3 catalysts were prepared by incipient wetness impregnation under various calcination conditions (90-500 oC), and were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy experiments (XPS), temperature programmed reduction, and catalytic measurements of hydrogenation of carbon monoxide to long-chained hydrocarbons leading to clean fuels (Fischer-Tropsch synthesis). The results of XPS show the presence of incompletely decomposed cobalt nitrate for catalysts calcined at 90-200 oC, and the presence of Co3O4 for catalysts calcined at 200-500 oC. For the four alumina-supported nano cobalt catalysts with different thermal treatment (200-500 oC), XRD and XPS results illustrated that there were mainly nano Co3O4 crystalite phases of 9-10 nm and the size of cobalt nano-particles did almost not change with the different temperature of thermal treatment. This was different from that of silica-supported cobalt catalysts. The supported cobalt catalyst (CoAp340 sample) calcinated at 340 oC presented a better activity for Fischer Tropsch synthesis to clean fuels, at mild conditions like atmospheric pressure (100 kPa), 1800 mL/g/h and 190 oC; rather than high pressure (2 MPa or more)." 相似文献
