Interface physicochemical processes controlling sulphate anion incorporation in porous anodic alumina and their dependence on the thermodynamic and transport properties of cations

Aluminium was anodised in H₂SO₄, LiHSO₄, NaHSO₄, KHSO₄, Mg(HSO₄)₂ and Al(HSO₄)₃ electrolytes. The kinetics of growth of porous anodic alumina films and of the pore wall oxide dissolution during anodisation was studied. Based on the derived kinetic parameters, suitable physicochemical processes in the barrier layer electrolyte interface controlling the anion incorporation in the barrier layer were suggested and relevant models were formulated. According to these processes Al³⁺ and H⁺ ions are rejected from the pore base surface in the attached double layer, where Al³⁺ ions are solvated, and are transferred to the pore filling solution. The strongly different mobilities of Al³⁺ and H⁺ and the necessary space negative charge density distribution in the double layer result in similar concentration distributions of Al³⁺ and anions inside it, which differ strongly from that of H⁺. These Al³⁺ and anion concentrations increase with decreasing mobility of the main cations in the solution which depends on their hydration enthalpy and transport mechanism. The concentration of incorporated anions inside both a thin surface layer of the barrier layer and the double layer vary similarly. For identical surface density and base diameter of pores the decrease of the above mobility reinforces anion incorporation.     

Interfacial cracking in ceramic laminates

The lamination of composite elements such as sheets or fibres made from ceramic powders represents a cheap and easy way of making tough ceramics. The fabrication and failure behaviour of such layered structures is described. It is shown that crack growth along the interfaces is dominated by dynamic effects due to the storage of excess elastic energy and that effects of loading state, in the silicon carbide/graphite system at least, appear to be relatively unimportant. Crack deflection at interfaces is also discussed and it is shown that observations made in these systems are not consistent with existing theories. Various possibilities are investigated.     

Fabrication of uniform porous alumina materials by radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering

Fabrication of porous materials with uniform pore size distribution remains a challenge. In this paper, a kind of uniform porous alumina material was fabricated on a template of polystyrene microspheres by radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering. Surface of samples was observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the phase of porous materials was confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The pore size distribution of samples was tested by mercury intrusion method.     

Transient DSC,a Novel and Rapid Method for Assessing Pharmaceutical Powder Compacts

The previously described method involving the use of transient DSC was applied to pharmaceutical powder compacts and to ceramic powder compacts. The samples were prepared by compressing powders of pentaerythritol tetraacetate and two kinds of alumina powder (differing in particle size distribution) up to a pressure of 20 MPa by using a jig. For pentaerythritol tetraacetate, a linear relationship was obtained between the parameter obtained by DSC and the compaction pressure. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.

Nanoporous membrane-based cell chip for the study of anti-cancer drug effect of retinoic acid with impedance spectroscopy

This paper presents a novel microchip with nanoporous anodic alumina membrane for the study of anti-cancer drug effect of retinoic acid (RA) on human esophageal squamous epithelial KYSE30 cancer cells in vitro with impedance spectroscopy. The impedance experiments with 0.01 M retinoic acid (RA) were explored for the study of anti-cancer drug effects on KYSE30 cancer cells. The impedance was monitored in the time domain at 0.1 Hz. After addition of 0.01 M RA to the cell chip, the impedance magnitude decreased with time from the value with confluent cell layer and returned to the initial base line after around 12 h. The fluorescence experiments testified that this impedance decrease was due to the cell morphology change induced by RA.

Adsorption of block copolymers in nanoporous alumina

We have studied the adsorption of end-attaching block copolymer chains inside the cylindrical pores of nanoporous alumina. Highly asymmetric PS-PEO block copolymers, with a small PEO anchoring block and a long PS dangling block, were allowed to adsorb onto porous alumina substrates with an average pore diameter of ∼200 nm from toluene solution. The adsorption process was monitored using FTIR spectroscopy, whereas depth profile analysis was performed by means of XPS and Ar⁺ ion sputtering. It is found that the PS-PEO adsorption kinetics in porous alumina are ∼4 orders of magnitude slower than the corresponding case of a flat alumina substrate. It appears that chains adsorbed near the pore entrance early on tend to form a barrier for chains entering the pore at later times, thereby slowing down the adsorption process significantly. This effect is much more pronounced for large chains whose dimensions are comparable with the pore diameter. The equilibrium adsorbance value is also affected by chain size due to the additional entropic penalty associated with chain confinement, the adsorbance falling substantially when the chain dimensions become comparable with the pore diameter. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
