KINETICS AND MECHANISM OF PHOTOINDUCED POLYMERIZATION BY α,α-DIMETHOXY-α-PHENYL ACETOPHENONE

α,α-dimethoxy-α-Phenyl acetophenone (DMPA) is an efficient and thermally stable photoinitiator. Here its spectral characteristics in the transient state were shown. The transient species were identified as a benzoyl radical and a dimethoxyi benzyl radical that played a primary initiation role in polymerization. The kinetics and mechanism of the bulk polymerization of MMA were investigated. The exponent of DMPA concentration and k_p/k_1~(1/2) value were found to be 0.5 and 0.066 mol(-1/2)l~(1/2)s~(-1/2), respectively. The existence of oxygen led to obtain the polymer with higher molecular weight, which can be attributed to the occurrence of the subsequent polymerization induced by active polymer end group. In the photocrosslinking reaction, the dependence of DMPA content on initial rate has been found. A principal reason is that the sample contained higher percentage of DMPA has higher light-absorbed efficiency. In solid film, higher concentration of DMPA is permitted to be used because there is little excited state self-quenching effect in the rigid medium.     

Evolution of hypersurfaces by the mean curvature minus an external force field

In this paper, we study the evolution of hypersurface moving by the mean curvature minus an external force field. It is shown that the flow will blow up in a finite time if the mean curvature of the initial surface is larger than some constant depending on the boundness of derivatives of the external force field. For a linear force, we prove that the convexity of the hypersurface is preserved during the evolution and the flow has a unique smooth solution in any finite time and expands to infinity as the time tends to infinity if the initial curvature is smaller than the slope of the force.     

Synthesis and Characterization of a Novel Copoly(aryl ether ketone) Containing 4,4′-Biphenyl-bis[4-phthalazin-1(2H)-one] moiety

A new monomer of 4,4′-biphenyl-bis[4-phthalazin-1(2H)-one] was synthesized from biphenly and phthalic anhydride,and a novel copoly(aryl ether ketone)(PPEK) was synthesized from 2,2-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)-propane(BPA),4,4′-biphenyl-bis-[4-phthalazin-1(2H)pne],4,4′-difluorodiphenylketone(DFK).The monomer and copolymer were characterized by FT-IR and ^1H-NMR.DSC and TGA were used to the novel polymer.     

Assembling Stabilization of the R-T Instability by the Effects of Finite Larmor Radius and Sheared Axial Flow

In the present paper, based on the incomepressible finite Larmor radius （FLR） magnetohydrodynamic （ MHD ） equations, we consider the stabilizing effect of the finite Larmor radius on the Rayleigh-Taylor （ RT ） instability in implosions of annular Z-pinch plasma. Here, the FLR is considered as a type of viscositytll, independent of any collisions （i.e., collisionless viscosity, or gyrouiscosity ）. Since we are introducing a sheared velocity,

We establish the existence of fundamental solutions for the anisotropic porous medium equation, ut = ∑n i=1（u^mi）xixi in R^n × （O,∞）, where m1,m2,..., and mn, are positive constants satisfying min1≤i≤n{mi}≤ 1, ∑i^n=1 mi 〉 n - 2, and max1≤i≤n{mi} ≤1/n（2 ＋ ∑i^n=1 mi）.     

Some limit theorems of killed Brownian motion

In this paper, we prove some limit theorems for killed Brownian motion during its life time. The emphases are on quasi-stationarity and quasi-ergodicity and related problems. On one hand, using an eigenfunction expansion for the transition density, we prove the existence and uniqueness of both quasi-stationary distribution (qsd) and mean ratio quasi-stationary distribution (mrqsd). The later is shown to be closely related to laws of large numbers (LLN) and to quasi-ergodicity. We further show that the mrqsd is the unique stationary distribution of a certain limiting ergodic diffusion process of the BM conditioned on not having been killed. We also show that a phase transition occurs from mrqsd to qsd. On the other hand, we study the large deviation behavior related to the above problems. A key observation is that the mrqsd is the unique minimum of certain large deviation rate function. We further prove that the limiting diffusion process also satisfies a large deviation principle with the rate function attaining its unique minimum at the mrqsd. These give interpretations of the mrqsd from different points of view, and establish some intrinsic connections among the above topics. Some general results concerning Yaglom limit, moment convergence and LLN are also obtained.

Decomposition Reaction of Zn-MPA（3-Mercaptopropionic Acid） Complex Under Microwave Irradiation

The thermal decomposition of Zn-MPA complex was investigated under microwave irradiation. ZnO and ZnS nanocrystals could be obtained by decomposing Zn-MPA（3-mercaptopropionic acid） complex under different reaction conditions. It was found that both the pH value of the solution and the molar ratio of Zn2＋ and MPA can play an important role in the formation of ZnO and ZnS nanocrystals. MPA mainly acts as an S source or as a complexing agent. This study provides a new route for the controllable preparation of semiconductor nanocrystals.
