Electrochemical synthesis of coatings in the system Ti-Si-B from molten salts

Powder and coatings of metal-like refractory compounds (MLRC) can be produced by electrochemical synthesis from molten salts. The stoichiometry of the deposited MLRC was found to correlate with the molar ratio of MLRC component ions in the melts. The system Ti-Si-B is of particular interest in terms of electrochemical synthesis since the titanium, silicon and boron potentials in the melt are close together. The electrochemical synthesis has been investigated in the system NaCl-KCl-NaF-K₂TiF₆-K₂SiF₆-KBF₄ at 700°C. The opportunity of deposition of new ternary compound in the system Ti-Si-B is shown by the electrochemical synthesis from molten salts.     

STUDIES ON THE PREPARATION OF ZINC-CONTAINING ACTIVATED CARBON FIBERS AND THEIR ANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITY

1. INTRODUCTION Microbial pollution will bring about various problems in industry and other vital fields, such as causing decomposing of materials, harming people抯 health. In order to reduce these problems, new antibacterial materials have been demanded. Recently, much attention has been paid to inorganic materials including zinc oxide [1~4]. These inorganic antibacterial materials are now substituting for organic materials to avoid releasing noxious organic molecules harmful to humans;…     

The influence of the mercury and thallium atoms in organomercury and organothallium nitroxyl radicals on their reactivity

An increase is found in the reactivity of organomercury and organothallium nitroxyl mono- and biradicals of the imidazoline type in comparison with the analogous compounds without organometallic fragments. This is explained by the formation of coordination bonds NHg, NTl, and NOHg.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 1, pp. 224–226, January, 1993.     

后交联型St-DVB大孔吸附树脂对低级醇类的吸附性能研究

分别在静态和动态条件下研究了Friedel—Crafs后交联型聚苯乙烯-二乙烯基苯(St-DVB)大孔吸附树脂对水溶液中多种低级一元醇的吸附性能，测定静态吸附等温线和动态吸附曲线，并分别按照Langmuir和Freundlich模型进行拟合．结果显示，树脂对水中低浓度低级一元醇的吸附过程属于放热的物理吸附过程，树脂吸附能力随着一元醇碳原子数的增加，即分子内疏水基团质量的增加而增加；树脂对直链醇的吸附能力稍强于同分异构的支链醇．     

Minimum energy configurations on a toric lattice as a quadratic assignment problem

We consider three known bounds for the quadratic assignment problem (QAP): an eigenvalue, a convex quadratic programming (CQP), and a semidefinite programming (SDP) bound. Since the last two bounds were not compared directly before, we prove that the SDP bound is stronger than the CQP bound. We then apply these to improve known bounds on a discrete energy minimization problem, reformulated as a QAP, which aims to minimize the potential energy between repulsive particles on a toric grid. Thus we are able to prove optimality for several configurations of particles and grid sizes, complementing earlier results by Bouman et al. (2013). The semidefinite programs in question are too large to solve without pre-processing, and we use a symmetry reduction method by Permenter and Parrilo (2020) to make computation of the SDP bounds possible.     

Potential reduction method for harmonically convex programming

In this paper, we introduce a potential reduction method for harmonically convex programming. We show that, if the objective function and them constraint functions are allk-harmonically convex in the feasible set, then the number of iterations needed to find an -optimal solution is bounded by a polynomial inm, k, and log(1/). The method requires either the optimal objective value of the problem or an upper bound of the harmonic constantk as a working parameter. Moreover, we discuss the relation between the harmonic convexity condition used in this paper and some other convexity and smoothness conditions used in the literature.The authors like to thank Dr. Hans Nieuwenhuis for carefully reading this paper and the anonymous referees for the worthy suggestions.     

The studies of the effect of photostimulated changes in thin carbon films

Photostimulated changes in thin carbon films deposited onto fused silica substrates by reactive magnetron sputtering and irradiated by the light of the first (1060nm) and the second (530nm) harmonics of a QW-switched Nd³⁺ AVG laser were investigated. The changes are supposed to be connected with the reordering of chemical bounds.     

Electrodeposition of fluorine-doped lead dioxide

The electrocatalytic properties of PbO₂ may be increased by incorporation of some ions such as F⁻. In this review, the preparation of fluorine-doped PbO₂ in the presence of some additives of fluorine-containing compounds (F⁻, potassium salt of nonafluoro-1-butanesulfonic acid C₄F₉O₃SK and Nafion^®) is reported. The mechanism of electrodeposition is discussed. The amount of additives in the deposit depends on the experimental conditions: potential, current density and charge of additive species in the plating solution. The physicochemical properties of doped oxide are very different from those of undoped oxide, accounting for the different electrocatalytic activity of the materials.     

The theoretical basis of column chromatography in multicomponent separations. Part 2: Peak capacity. Column systems with good selectivity

The selectivity of a column system, S, defined by equation 28, includes a variation coefficient (β) of plate number with capacity ratio which has a large influence on the peak capacity, as shown in Fig. 18. Some typical chromatograms are given. In order to predict S for a column system from Kovat's Index, equations 40 and 41 are given to calculate the constant of the carbon number rule for squalane at different temperatures or for different stationary phases. The specific retention value of heptane on squalane at different temperatures can be calculated from equation 42. The nonpolarity index, defined by equation 43, was used to calculate the retention value of heptane on various stationary phases. In liquid chromatography, the order of elution may be reversed by changing the composition of the eluent on the same chemically bonded silica (manufactured in China). The linear relations between the log retention values of different kinds of solutes or of a single solute on the silicas of different surface areas when using the same eluent are given.
