Micellar core-shell-type acrylic-polyurethane hybrid materials with self-polishing property

Abstract

Marine fouling can be a serious problem in the shipping industry, since it increases the surface roughness of the hull and hence its frictional resistance to its movement through water. Antifouling paint can be defined as preventing the attachment of marine organisms onto surfaces. However, the most commonly used antifouling coating which is the tributyltin-based self-polishing copolymer causes the severe pollution of marine environment. Ammonium salt-based paints include tertiary amines as biocides which have effective biocidal and biodegradable properties without accumulation in the sea environment. However, ammonium salt-based coatings were too sensitive to seawater and became swollen. In this study, polyurethane-acrylic copolymers were synthesized by radical polymerization. These hybrid materials were found to form core–shell structures in aqueous media. Synthesis and properties of copolymers were investigated by Fourier transform-infrared spectrometer, proton-nuclear magnetic resonance, transmission electron microscopy, and dynamic light scattering. The polishing rate of self-polishing copolymer was determined from the reduction in dry film thickness after artificial seawater immersion under a dynamic condition.     

Beam-based calibrations of the BPM offset at C-ADS Injector Ⅱ

Beam-based BPM offset calibration was carried out for Injector II at the C-ADS demonstration facility at the Institute of Modern Physics(IMP), Chinese Academy of Science(CAS). By using the steering coils integrated in the quadrupoles, the beam orbit can be effectively adjusted and BPM positions recorded at the Medium Energy Beam Transport of the Injector II Linac. The studies were done with a 2 m A, 2.1 Me V proton beam in pulsed mode.During the studies, the "null comparison method" was applied for the calibration. This method is less sensitive to errors compared with the traditional transmission matrix method. In addition, the quadrupole magnet's center can also be calibrated with this method.     

A comparative first-principles study on electronic structures and mechanical properties of ternary intermetallic compounds Al8Cr4Y and Al8Cu4Y: Pressure and tension effects

An investigation into the bulk properties, elastic properties and Debye temperature under pressure, and deformation mode under tension of Al₈Cu₄Y and Al₈Cr₄Y compounds was investigated by using first principles calculations based on density functional theory. The calculated lattice constants for the ternary compounds (Al₈Cu₄Y and Al₈Cr₄Y) are in good agreement with the experimental data. It can be seen from interatomic distances that the bonding between Al1 atom and Cr, Y, and Al2 atoms in Al₈Cr₄Y are stronger than Al₈Cu₄Y. The results of cohesive energy show that Al₈Cr₄Y should be easier to be formed and much stronger chemical bonds than Al₈Cu₄Y. The bulk modulus B, shear modulus G, Young's modulus E and Poisson's ratio ν can be obtained by using the Voigt–Reuss–Hill averaging scheme. From the results of elastic properties, Al₈Cr₄Y has the stronger mechanical behavior than Al₈Cu₄Y. Our calculations also show that pressure has a greater effect on mechanical behavior for both compounds. The ideal tensile strength are obtained by stress-strain relationships under [001](001) uniaxial tensile deformation, which are 15.4 and 23.4 GPa for Al₈Cu₄Y and Al₈Cr₄Y, respectively. The total and partial density of states and electron charge density under uniaxial tensile deformations for Al₈Cu₄Y and Al₈Cr₄Y compounds are also calculated and discussed in this work.

采用平面波法(PWM)计算一维光子晶体的带隙结构。分别就构造一维光子晶体结构的高低折射膜层的介电常数及填充比(高折射膜层的厚度与晶体周期长度的比值)对禁带带隙宽度的影响作出分析。通过最小二乘曲线和曲面拟合得到带宽与介电常数或带宽与填充比的函数关系图，以确定最佳的禁带带宽，从而设计一维光子晶体的周期结构。对高低折射膜层为GaAs/空气组成的一维光子晶体，介电常数比约为13/1，当填充比为0.16时，计算得禁带带宽为0.2564×2πc/Λ，禁带的中心频率为0.3478×2πc/Λ，与实验数据吻合。

A high order energy preserving scheme for the strongly coupled nonlinear Schrōdinger system

A high order energy preserving scheme for a strongly coupled nonlinear Schrōdinger system is roposed by using the average vector field method. The high order energy preserving scheme is applied to simulate the soliton evolution of the strongly coupled Schrōdinger system. Numerical results show that the high order energy preserving scheme can well simulate the soliton evolution, moreover, it preserves the discrete energy of the strongly coupled nonlinear Schrōdinger system exactly.
