用于考察外源添加剂对卷烟常规烟气指标影响的样品制备因子筛选

为筛选用于考察外源添加剂对卷烟常规烟气指标影响的样品制备关键控制因子,采用L_8(2~7)正交试验设计进行香兰素及乙基麦芽酚的添加实验.卷烟常规烟气指标变化数值通过极差分析、方差分析,结果显示:参比卷烟种类是影响卷烟烟气总粒相物、焦油、水分的高度显著因子,就试验采用的1R5F和3R4F参比卷烟而言,添加剂在高焦油3R4F卷烟中对常规烟气指标的影响比其在低焦油1R5F卷烟中的影响大;添加剂种类与浓度的交互作用不仅对卷烟烟气总粒相物有高度显著影响,而且对总粒相物中的水分也有显著影响;因此,规范样品制备,可减少误差、保证后续外源添加剂加入对卷烟常规烟气指标影响评价结果和推断的可靠性及科学性.

Fire properties of silylated α‐zirconium phosphate composites based on polystyrene

α‐zirconium phosphate (ZrP) (prepared by both reflux and hydrothermal methods) is silylated with chlorotrimethylsilane and characterized by X‐ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Polystyrene/silylated‐ZrP composites show higher thermal stability as the ZrP content increases. Cone calorimetry suggests that the reduction of the peak heat release rate of polystyrene (PS)/ZrP composites does not increase as the ZrP loading increases; the aspect ratio of ZrP has little effect in fire performance of PS/ZrP composites.

The study of the stability of aqueous three-phase fire-resistant foam in typical liquidus hydrocarbons

The utilization of solid particles in aqueous foam has a great potential in improving fire fighting efficiency. In this study, aqueous foam supported by micro fly-ash (FA) was prepared and its stability in a specific type of oil was characterized. Firstly, different amount of FA was added to study the influence of FA concentration on foamability. It showed that within a specific extent, foam expansion ratio increased with the increasing of FA concentration. And compared with conventional foams, oil resistance of FA stabilized foams, which was investigated by analyzing drainage rate and evolution process with a self-made apparatus, was remarkably improved when FA concentration exceed 4.8wt.%. Secondly, SiO₂ and Al₂O₃ particles with different median sizes were used to study the effect of particle size on stability. However, the smaller hydrophilic particles didn’t behave better as expected. Moreover, the foam stability in three hydrocarbons was evaluated in the same way. The results indicated that the short chain hydrocarbons had much stronger detrimental effect to both two-phase foam and three-phase foam. But overall, the three-phase foam stabilized by FA exhibited much better oil resistance, so it can be used as a promising material for pool fire extinguishing and prevention.GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT     

Quantitation of perfluoroalkyl acids,parabens and cotinine from single low volume serum sample by validated analytical method

ABSTRACT

In this paper, we present the results of an analytical method that has been recently developed, validated and successfully applied in a biomonitoring approach. In the environmental pollutant studies it is desirable that the analytical method can determine multiple classes of compounds from a single, small volume sample. The presented analytical method with a simple sample pre-treatment allows the quantitation of 13 perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs), 6 parabens and cotinine (used as nicotine biomarker) from a single, small volume of 100 µL serum sample by liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole mass spectrometer (LC-MS/MS). The limits of quantitation (LOQ) for PFAAs, parabens and cotinine were 0.10–0.50, 0.20–0.80 and 0.10 ng/mL, respectively. Besides sensitivity the method has excellent trueness/accuracy and repeatability. The trueness of the method for the determination of PFAAs ranged from 95% to 106% and the repeatability (as RSD %) from 0.6% to 5.6%. The accuracy and RSD for parabens were 73–120% and 1.3–9.7%, respectively, and 100–106% and 1.3–3.5 % for cotinine. Biomonitoring data reveals the presence of several PFAAs and parabens in serum samples of Finnish population. The total concentrations for PFAAs and parabens were from 2.0 to 33 ng/mL and from <LOQ to 1100 ng/mL, respectively. Nearly all non-smokers had the serum cotinine concentration below 1.0 ng/mL, which can be suggested as the cut point for cotinine concentration to identify smoking.     

Potential Mitigation of Smoke Taint in Wines by Post-Harvest Ozone Treatment of Grapes

When bushfires occur near grape growing regions, vineyards can be exposed to smoke, and depending on the timing and duration of grapevine smoke exposure, fruit can become tainted. Smoke-derived volatile compounds, including volatile phenols, can impart unpleasant smoky, ashy characters to wines made from smoke-affected grapes, leading to substantial revenue losses where wines are perceivably tainted. This study investigated the potential for post-harvest ozone treatment of smoke-affected grapes to mitigate the intensity of smoke taint in wine. Merlot grapevines were exposed to smoke at ~7 days post-veraison and at harvest grapes were treated with 1 or 3 ppm of gaseous ozone (for 24 or 12 h, respectively), prior to winemaking. The concentrations of smoke taint marker compounds (i.e., free and glycosylated volatile phenols) were measured in grapes and wines to determine to what extent ozonation could mitigate the effects of grapevine exposure to smoke. The 24 h 1 ppm ozone treatment not only gave significantly lower volatile phenol and volatile phenol glycoside concentrations but also diminished the sensory perception of smoke taint in wine. Post-harvest smoke and ozone treatment of grapes suggests that ozone works more effectively when smoke-derived volatile phenols are in their free (aglycone) form, rather than glycosylated forms. Nevertheless, the collective results demonstrate the efficacy of post-harvest ozone treatment as a strategy for mitigation of smoke taint in wine.

Flame retardancy and smoke suppression of silicone foams with microcapsulated aluminum hypophosphite and zinc borate

The flame‐retardant microcapsules were successfully fabricated with an aluminum hypophosphite (AHP) core. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were used to verify that AHP was encapsulated in the microcapsules, and thermogravimetry analysis showed that microencapsulated AHP (MAHP) possessed higher thermal stability than that of AHP. Then, a flame‐retardant and smoke suppression system for silicone foams (SiFs) was obtained through a synergistic effect of MAHP and zinc borate (2ZnO·3B₂O₃·3.5H₂O). The mechanical properties, flame retardance, and smoke suppression of SiFs with MAHP and zinc borate were tested using the tensile test, limiting oxygen index (LOI) test, UL‐94 test, and cone calorimeter test. The mechanical properties indicated that the tensile strength and elongation at break of SiFs could evidently improve with the incorporation of MAHP. Compared with pure SiF, SiF8 with 4.5‐wt% MAHP and 1.5‐wt% zinc borate could achieve an LOI value of 30.7 vol% and an UL‐94 V‐0 rating, the time to ignition amplified almost six times, the peak heat release rate and total heat release were 51.10% and 46.00% less than that of pure SiF, respectively, the fire performance index increased nearly 13 times, and the fire growth index value was only 13.18% of pure SiF. Moreover, the partial substitution of zinc borate imparted a substantial improvement in both flame retardancy and smoke suppression. Especially, the peak smoke production rate and total smoke production of SiF8 were merely 38.46% and 38.84% of pure SiF.
