Influence of surfactant addition on the stability of concentrated alumina dispersions in water

The goal of this study was to assess the effects of surfactant addition on the stability and viscosity of concentrated alumina dispersions. The stabilizing effects of several candidate surfactants were investigated for concentrated dispersions of two different pseudoboehmite aluminas at pH 4 and 7. The stabilities of concentrated alumina dispersions treated by pH adjustment alone and by pH adjustment combined with surfactant addition were compared to assess the degree to which the surfactant enhanced stability. The initial rate of mass removal from a sedimenting alumina dispersion was used as a measure of stability.

The anionic surfactants Surfine WNT-A and DOWFAX 3B2 were identified as effective in enhancing the stability of concentrated alumina dispersions. The optimal doses of these surfactants for stabilizing 15% by weight VERSAL™ 250 alumina dispersions at pH 4 were determined to be about 4.6 × 10⁻⁵ mol g⁻¹ for both surfactants. On the basis of the initial rate of mass removal, surfactant-stabilized 15 wt.% suspensions were found to be approximately 2.5 and 10.6 times more stable than similar dispersions stabilized electrostatically by pH adjustment alone. These more stable dispersions exhibited lower viscosities than observed for the alumina dispersions not subjected to surfactant addition. The results indicate that the stability of concentrated alumina dispersions can be enhanced by anionic surfactant addition, and that such surfactants may therefore help to control the rheology of concentrated dispersions of alumina in water.

Diffusion-averaged molecular weights of «nonboiling» crude oil fractions

Summary The successful application of the formerly presented concept of diffusion-averaged molecular weight, M_d, to vacuum residues of crude oils, or their fractions, is described. The samples for establishing the calibration curve, logDvs. logM, were crude oil fractions with polydispersities smaller than 1.1. In a surprisingly good approximation the calibration curve is independent of the origin of these fractions if 500<M<10000. The validity of our calibration curve was demonstrated with more than 10 crude oil residues and with some of their hydrogenation residues [2].     

Theoretical analysis of the performance of a model supercapacitor consisting of metal oxide nano-particles

The factors influencing the electrochemical behaviour of a supercapacitor have been partly examined in this work. The effects of so-called intrinsic parameters, i.e. exchange current density, unit cell length and double layer (DL) capacitance; as well as the so-called application parameters, i.e. cell current, on the cell potential discharge time have been considered. The contributions of each type of capacitors, DL capacitor and faradaic supercapacitor under various states of operation and material have been analyzed, and the competing (compensating) effects of the two types of capacitors as regards to the discharge and power characteristics manifested by current–potential and energy–power (Ragone plots) are elucidated.

表面分散过程的分形研究

盐类和氧化物等活性组分在一定条件下,可在高比表面载体上自发分散。研究这些过程对多相催化剂、吸附剂的制备过程理解和控制无疑是重要的。这类分散过程已被系统地研究,并提出了单层分散模型,对CuCl_2/γ-Al_2O_3、HgCl_2/活性炭等多种体系,测定了单层分散阈值。表面化学习惯上理解为就是二维的化学。早在1931年Tayor就指出表面是不均匀的,但这种不均匀性是作为对理想二维表面的修正而引入的,如TLK模型。表面科学的这些基本概念其数学基础是欧基里德几何学,其物理背景是晶体结构,不规则性就是指晶体结     

Hepatobiliary excretion and brain distribution of caffeine in rats using microdialysis

To investigate the pharmacokinetic mechanism of hepatobiliary excretion and brain distribution of caffeine, this study uses a method based on microdialysis technique and liquid chromatography that allows continuous and concurrent in vivo monitoring of extracellular caffeine in the blood, brain and bile of anesthetized rats following the administration of caffeine (3 or 10 mg/kg, i.v.) through the femoral vein. Dialysates of the blood, brain and bile were directly injected onto the liquid chromatographic system and no further clean-up procedures were required. The study design consisted of two groups of six rats in parallel: the rats of the control group received caffeine (3 or 10 mg/kg, i.v.) alone and those of the cyclosporine treated-group were injected cyclosporine (10 mg/kg, i.v.) 10 min prior to caffeine administration (3 or 10 mg/kg, i.v.). The decline of caffeine in the blood, brain striatum and bile suggested that caffeine had rapid exchange and equilibration between the peripheral compartment and the central nervous system. In addition, the results indicated that caffeine underwent hepatobiliary excretion and was distributed into brain. When cyclosporine was co-administered, the pharmacokinetic parameters were not significantly altered. The results of this study reveal that the pharmacokinetic mechanism of hepatobiliary excretion and brain distribution of caffeine might not relate to P-glycoprotein.
