聚丙烯/聚乙烯共混物的辐射凝胶生成动力学研究

本文研究辐照PP/HDPE共混物的溶胶生成分数s与辐照剂量R的关系,结果表明适用于某些纯聚合物辐射交联规律的Charlesby-Pinner关系式和陈-刘-唐关系式皆不适用于PP/HDPE共混体系。张万喜等人曾研究过许多纯聚合物的辐射交联,提出裂解度正比于R~β的假定,β是与高分子结构相关的参数,这个假定可与大多数聚合物的辐射交联实验数据符合。同样的假定被应用于本文的共混体系,不同的是根据共混物结构特点对R~β项进行了必要的修正,即共混物的R~β=∑f_iR~(βI),其中f_i,β_i分别为共混物第i组分的重量分数及β值。用修正后的R~β处理辐照PP/HDPE共混物的实验数据,R(s+√s)～R~β,有很好的线性关系。     

溴乙烷光电离解离的理论计算和实验

分子的电离电势、键能和离子的标准生成焓等都是非常重要的物理化学数据,它们对化学反应机理等研究有很大帮助,精确测定离子的出现势,就可以获得这些热力学常数.迄今为止,有关溴乙烷(Ｃ2Ｈ5Ｂｒ)电离解离过程的研究已有若干报导[1-3],但这些结果均是在常温条件下,用电子轰击电离、彭宁电离或真空紫外灯辐照等方法获得的,由于常伴有热带效应、离子分子反应、离子对形成等过程[4],其结果的准确性往往较差.本文首次报导使用同步辐射光源对Ｃ2Ｈ5Ｂｒ进行光电离解离研究.通过准确测量母体离子以及几种主要碎片离子的出现势,结合已有的公认的热力…     

钨/石墨烯/钨面向等离子体复合材料力学与热学及耐辐照性能衰减的第一性原理计算

通过第一性原理计算研究了钨/石墨烯/钨复合材料相比于纯钨金属在力学与热学性质方面的变化,并用氦原子-空位缔合缺陷模拟核聚变辐照损伤评估等离子体辐照条件下的性能。计算结果表明：钨/石墨烯/钨复合材料的体积弹性模量、杨氏模量与剪切模量呈现一定程度的下降,但是提升了钨基材料的延展性;钨/石墨烯/钨复合材料的热膨胀系数有所增加,但是具有较高的最小热导率。本文阐述了石墨烯界面层可以对基体杂质与缺陷进行吸附的独特机制,通过这种机制,钨/石墨烯/钨复合材料在力学、热膨胀系数以及最小热导率有更低程度的衰减,这显示了钨/石墨烯/钨复合材料在抗辐照性能方面具有较大的应用潜力。

γ-Ray-Radiation-Scissioned Chitosan as a Gene Carrier and Its Improved in uitro Gene Transfection Performance

Chitosan (CS) is expected to be an ideal gene carrier for its high biosafety. In this work, CS with low molecular weight were prepared through the γ-ray radiation on the acetic acid solution of CS. The CS chains were scissioned under the γ-ray radiation, and the molecular weight (MW) of CS decreased with the absorbed dose. When the absorbed dose was above 30 kGy, the molecular weight of CS decreased about an order of magnitude. The γ-ray-radiation-scissioned CS can e ectively bind with plasmid (pEGFP) through complex coacervation method, forming pEGFP/ γ-ray-radiation-scissioned CS complex particles with a size of 200-300 nm. The complex particles have good stability and little cytotoxicity. The in uitro gene transfection efficiencies of the pEGFP/ γ-ray-radiation-scissioned CS complex particles were investigated by fluorescence microscope and flow cytometry. The results showed that the gene vectors using γ-ray-radiation-scissioned CS as the carrier will possess better gene transfection efficiency than those using natural high-MW CS as the carrier. The higher the absorbed dose, the smaller the MW of CS and the better transfection efficiency of the corresponding gene vector. This work provides a green and simple method on the preparation of CS-based gene vectors with high efficiency and biosafety.     

Verification of radiotherapy doses by EPR dosimetry in patients' teeth

The aim of this work was to verify applicability of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) ex vivo dosimetry in teeth enamel for determination of doses absorbed by patients during radiotherapy with radiation fields covering head regions and to examine with what accuracy the doses predicted by radiotherapy treatment plan (RTP) can be confirmed by doses measured ex post by the EPR method. The doses were determined in 22 enamel samples obtained from 11 patients who, after their radiotherapy treatment underwent extraction of teeth due to medical reasons. The delivered doses were determined by measuring EPR signals in enamel samples from the extracted teeth; magnitude of these signals is proportional to concentration of stable free radicals induced by radiation in the hydroxyapatite content of enamel. The measured doses were compared with doses planned in the teeth locations by RTP systems. The relation between the measured (D_m) and the planned (D_p) doses can be described as a linear function: D_m = s·D_p + b, with the slope s = 0.93 ± 0.03 and the intercept b = 0.67 ± 1.26. The deviations between the measured and calculated doses were in the (−12.6%, +1.9%) range with the average deviation of – 4.6%. It is concluded, than more accurate measurements, achievable when using a higher calibration dose than in the present study, are necessary to confirm or to deny the observed bias between the measured and planned doses.     

Radiation damage in soft X-ray microscopy

The rates of chemical transformation by radiation damage of polystyrene (PS), poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), and fibrinogen (Fg) in a X-ray photoemission electron microscope (X-PEEM) and in a scanning transmission X-ray microscope (STXM) have been measured quantitatively using synchrotron radiation. As part of the method of dose evaluation in X-PEEM, the characteristic (1/e) sampling depth of X-PEEM for polystyrene in the C 1s region was measured to be 4 ± 1 nm. Critical doses for chemical change as monitored by changes in the X-ray absorption spectra are 80 (12), 280 (40) and 1230 (180) MGy (1 MGy = 6.242*ρ eV/nm³, where ρ is the polymer density in g/cm³) at 300 eV photon energy for PMMA, Fg and PS, respectively. The critical dose for each material is comparable in X-PEEM and STXM and the values cited are thus the mean of the values determined by X-PEEM and STXM. C 1s, N 1s and O 1s spectroscopy of the damaged materials is used to gain insight into the chemical changes that soft X-rays induce in these materials.     

Radiation damage and annealing in Sb implanted diamond

The predicted, but as yet unobserved, intradonor absorption spectrum of the hydrogenic-like donors in CdF₂ crystals is presented. The role of phonon coupling in these spectra is discussed. From the data on the insulator-semiconductor transition in CdPbF₂ it is concluded that the dominant factor in convertibility of CdF₂ to a semiconducting state is its electron affinity, the largest among the fluorites (x≈4 eV).
