Shape-controlled synthesis of nanocrystalline titania at low temperature

The interesting shape (shuttle-like, sphere with needles, uniform particles) rutile titania were prepared by the hydrolysis of TiCl₄ in high acidic aqueous solution in the absence or presence of PEG-1000. PEG-1000 acted as dispersant, which could control the shape and size of the precipitate of titania. As a result, shuttle-like nanocrystalline appeared and the aggregation was improved with the increase of the amount of acid and the decrease of the concentration of TiCl₄ in the absence of PEG-1000. Uniform nanoparticles were obtained in the presence of PEG-1000 and the diameter of the particles decreased with increasing the amount of PEG-1000. This process simplification will lower production cost and make continuous process possible. The products were analyzed using X-ray diffractometer, transmission electron microscopy.

A Luminescent Metal–Organic Framework Thermometer with Intrinsic Dual Emission from Organic Lumophores

A new mixed‐ligand metal–organic framework (MOF), ZnATZ‐BTB, has been constructed as a luminescent ratiometric thermometer by making use of the intrinsic dual emission at cryogenic temperatures. Its twofold interpenetrated network promotes the Dexter energy transfer (DET) between the mixed organic lumophores. The temperature‐dependent luminescent behavior arises from the thermal equilibrium between two separated excited states coupled by DET, which is confirmed by Boltzmann distribution fitting. The small excited‐state energy gap allows ZnATZ‐BTB to measure and visualize cryogenic temperatures (30–130 K) with significantly high relative sensitivity (up to 5.29 % K^?1 at 30 K). Moreover, it is the first example of a ratiometric MOF thermometer the dual emitting sources of which are widely applicable mixed organic ligands, opening up new opportunities for designing such devices.     

Pesticide‐conjugated polyacrylate nanoparticles: novel opportunities for improving the photostability of emamectin benzoate

Emamectin benzoate, a macrocyclic lactone, can be used in low quantities to control arthropod pests, effectively. However, its poor photostability prevents its further use. To delay its photodegradation, novel acrylate‐type polymeric nanoparticles were synthesized and tested as materials for improving pesticide photostability. N‐acylated emamectin benzoate was synthesized via bonding emamectin benzoate to acrylamide. The resulting pesticide, containing the double bond linkage –C=C–N–, was copolymerized with butyl acrylate and methyl methacrylate by the emulsion polymerization method. The refined polymers were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy spectroscopy, and result illustrated the pesticide was conjugated to the polymers. Atomic force microscope and dynamic light scattering analyses were also used for determining the average particle diameters of pesticide–polymer conjugates. Photostability tests showed that the nanoparticles obtained exhibited greatly improved photostability. Additionally, the laboratory toxicity tests demonstrated that the insecticidal effects of the novel emamectin benzoate formulation were better than those of the control pesticide formulation (emamectin benzoate EC).

荧光增白剂28的光漂白特性研究

荧光增白剂28(F-28)为欧盟标准EN 648-2006《与食品接触的纸和纸板-荧光增白剂牢度的测定》中判断食品接触材料所含荧光增白剂是否向食品中迁移的标样。我们发现,在规定的波长365nm紫外光激发下,F-28所制成的标样会出现光漂白现象。因此,本文对F-28的光漂白特性进行研究。结果表明,紫外辐照时间为60s时,四级(3mg/L)、三级(8mg/L)、二级(31mg/L)、一级(125mg/L)滤纸和玻纤的最大荧光值衰减率分别为0.16%、0.29%、0.92%、0.44%和2.59%、1.99%、0.49%、3.14%;当辐照时间延长到1800 s时,最大荧光值衰减率分别增加为4.67%、4.22%、5.51%、2.75%和35.37%、39.78%、28.09%、39.38%。因此,在对食品接触材料是否含有荧光增白剂以及是否迁移的测试中,必须考虑光漂白因素。同时,滤纸作为迁移实验载体,在降低光漂白和稳定性方面比玻纤更具优势。

湍流内尺度对光波起伏频谱的影响

在不同湍流内尺度情况下,对大气湍流引起的光波光强闪烁和到达角起伏的时间频谱特征进行了实验研究。由于实际大气湍流的复杂性和不可控性,利用大气湍流模拟箱来生成具有不同内尺度的大气湍流实验环境。利用位置敏感探测器对光波的光强闪烁和到达角起伏进行了同时测量,并反演得到了光传输路径上的湍流内尺度。实验结果显示:湍流内尺度为2.7~5.0 mm,对应同一湍流内尺度,闪烁频谱和到达角起伏频谱在高频段以相同的幂指数关系下降,幂指数的绝对值与湍流内尺度的大小呈线性关系,随着内尺度的增大,频谱指数变化区间逐渐向低频方向移动。     

Exergetic efficiency optimization for an irreversible heat pump working on reversed Brayton cycle

This paper deals with the performance analysis and optimization for irreversible heat pumps working on reversed Brayton cycle with constant-temperature heat reservoirs by taking exergetic efficiency as the optimization objective combining exergy concept with finite-time thermodynamics (FTT). Exergetic efficiency is defined as the ratio of rate of exergy output to rate of exergy input of the system. The irreversibilities considered in the system include heat resistance losses in the hot- and cold-side heat exchangers and non-isentropic losses in the compression and expansion processes. The analytical formulas of the heating load, coefficient of performance (COP) and exergetic efficiency for the heat pumps are derived. The results are compared with those obtained for the traditional heating load and coefficient of performance objectives. The influences of the pressure ratio of the compressor, the allocation of heat exchanger inventory, the temperature ratio of two reservoirs, the effectiveness of the hot- and cold-side heat exchangers and regenerator, the efficiencies of the compressor and expander, the ratio of hot-side heat reservoir temperature to ambient temperature, the total heat exchanger inventory, and the heat capacity rate of the working fluid on the exergetic efficiency of the heat pumps are analysed by numerical calculations. The results show that the exergetic efficiency optimization is an important and effective criterion for the evaluation of an irreversible heat pump working on reversed Brayton cycle.
