An important characteristic of monomer-starved nucleation in semibatch reactors is that the rate of growth of particles is controlled by the rate of monomer addition. The reduced rate of growth of particles prolongs the nucleation interval by slowing down the rate of emulsifier micelle depletion and forms a larger number of particles (Np). Model calculations show how Np varies with the formulation parameters as the monomer-flooded nucleation shifts into monomer-starved one. Particle formation in the intermediate conversion of interval III of the styrene batch emulsion polymerization also showed an enhancement because of a low rate of growth of newly formed particles. However, at a higher conversion, the rate of particle formation decreased significantly. Modeling results show that the reduction in the rate of particle formation at high conversions could not be simply explained by existing theories which rely on the decrease in monomer concentration in the aqueous phase as a means to explain the decrease in the rate of radical capture. 相似文献
Main experimental approaches for obtaining polymer, inorganic and hybrid colloidal particles as well as the tailored functionalization of their surface by oligoperoxide surfactants (OPS) and metal complexes (OMC) on their basis are discussed in the paper. The methods proposed enable to combine the stage of the formation of colloidal polymer, siliceous, metal and metal-oxide particles with the stage of their surface modification by functional surface-active oligoperoxides, which are sorbed irreversibly. Novel functional particles are studied by chemical, colloidal-chemical, rheological methods and scanning electronic microscopy. The occurrence of metal and metal oxide particle formation in distinct zones correlates well with the particle size distribution. The availability of reactive ditertiary peroxidic fragments on the particle surface as a result of OPS or OMC sorption causes their reliable protection, hydrophobity and ability to form free radicals and participate in elementary stages of radical processes. 相似文献
The Gell-Mann and Low's technology and Bethe-Salpeter equation for manyparticles are first discussed. Then the space-like form of Bethe-Salpeter equation involving both the bound state and scatter state are extended to many-particle case. Consequently we build the formalism of the space-like equation with explicit Lorentz covariant form and without the difficulty of ghost states automatically. 相似文献
This work describes the estimation of polymer particle size from NIR spectra collected in situ and online in an automated reactor. A good linearity between spectra and average polymer particle diameter is found. The multivariate linear model is also tested with an independent data set not used in the model fitting. Despite varying monomer and polymer concentrations and temperature changes along the process, the average particle sizes are well predicted and can be monitored by NIR spectroscopy during emulsion polymerization reactions.
Evolution of average particle diameter with polymer content for three different BA/Sty semi‐continuous emulsion polymerization reactions. Open symbols correspond to spectra used in the model fitting and solid symbols to the test data set. The different symbol types correspond to the three different reactions. 相似文献
Due to a higher operating temperature (≥800 °C), Solar Particle Receiver (SPR) which uses particles as the working medium is considered as one of best candidates to improve the thermoelectric conversion efficiency of concentrating solar power plants. In this paper, a quartz tube solid particle receiver model is fully developed by using the discretized lumped parameter method, in which the calculation process of particle temperature and thermal loss is clearly given. In order to improve the manipulation level of particle receiver during the operation, the dynamic characteristics of the quartz tube particle receiver are comprehensively studied by the disturbance test of selected input parameters. Besides, in order to grasp the influence rule of key parameters on the thermal performance of particle receiver, the key parameters’ sensitivity analysis is also deeply studied. The results show that the particle outlet temperature can reach as high as 810 °C under a relatively small value of solar flux 600 kW/m2, but the receiver efficiency is only about 75%; Besides, the receiver efficiency shows a variation tendency that it rises first falls afterwards with the increase of incident solar flux. The validity of proposed model is verified by a heating experimental system with a single quartz tube, and the relative error is not more than 7.9%. The research results are beneficial for understanding the dynamic characteristics and designing the particle receiver. 相似文献
