对甲烷氧化偶联W－Mn／SiO＿2催化剂Na＿2WO＿4的流失及其影响的考察

用ＸＲＤ、ＦＴ－ＩＲ、ＥＳＲ、Ｈ２－ＴＰＲ和ＴＰＯ等方法，对Ｎａ２ＷＯ４－Ｍｎ２Ｏ３／ＳｉＯ２催化剂和其经水煮处理的一系列样品进行了表征．实验发现该催化剂中的结晶态Ｎａ２ＷＯ４易于流失，单层分布的Ｎａ２ＷＯ４在苛刻的处理条件下也有可能流失．依此，探讨了上述流失现象与Ｎａ２ＷＯ４－Ｍｎ２Ｏ３／ＳｉＯ２催化剂的催化活性及该催化剂在长时间反应中发生的ＳｉＯ２相变之间的关系，证明了结晶态Ｎａ２ＷＯ４的流失对该催化剂甲烷氧化偶联反应的催化活性只有轻微的影响，单层分布Ｎａ２ＷＯ４的流失可造成催化剂中Ｍｎ从Ｍｎ３＋转变为Ｍｎ２＋，并使催化剂的催化活性明显降低．但在水煮条件下，无论是结晶态的还是单层分布，Ｎａ２ＷＯ４的流失都没有对ＳｉＯ２的α－方石英结构产生影响

通过X射线衍射分析和超导量子干涉磁强计（SQUID）磁性测量,研究了Co替代Fe含量对居里温度在室温以上的磁制冷材料La（Fe1-xCox）11.7Al1.3（x=0.072,0.081）磁结构和磁性能的影响。La（Fe1-xCox）11.7Al1.3材料的居里温度随Co的含量增加而增加,La（Fe0.919Co0.081）11.7Al1.3的居里温度为311 K。当外场变化为1.9 T时磁熵变达到3.6 J·kg^-1·K^-1,RCP值为168.6 J·kg^-1,虽然它的磁熵变小于具有巨磁熵变的磁制冷材料,但是它在磁场为1.9 T时的制冷能力与这些材料相当。     

Screening of glycoside isomers in P. scrophulariiflora using ionic liquid‐based ultrasonic‐assisted extraction and ultra‐performance liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization quadrupole time‐of‐flight tandem mass spectrometry

A powerful ionic liquid‐based ultrasonic‐assisted extraction (ILUAE) method combined with ultra‐performance liquid chromatography coupled to electrospray ionization quadrupole time‐of‐flight tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC/ESI‐QTOFMSⁿ) was employed in the rapid simultaneous screening of iridoid glycosides, phenylethanoid glycosides, and cucurbitacin glycosides from P. scrophulariiflora. The ILUAE procedure was optimized over several ultrasonic parameters, including the ultrasonic power, concentration of the ionic liquid, and solid–liquid ratio. A comparison with conventional heat‐reflux extraction and regular UAE demonstrated that the optimized approach yielded a high extraction efficiency (Picroside I, 2.84%; Picroside II, 3.57%; 6‐O‐E‐feruloyl catalpol, 2.20%) within a short extraction time of 30 min. Negative ion mode ESI‐QTOFMS² analysis of the fragmentation reactions of the [M–H]^– ions was conducted to characterize the diagnostic ions related to the glycosyl moieties, aglycone units, and the type and substituted position of the ester groups. Interestingly, the positional isomers of the iridoid glycosides could be easily discriminated based on the characteristic ions. A total of 15 glycosides, including three groups of iridoid glycoside isomers and two groups of phenylethanoid glycoside isomers, were conveniently identified within 13.5 min. Moreover, 6'‐O‐vanilloyl catalpol was identified in P. scrophulariiflora for the first time. The method developed here was further validated by measuring the recovery, correlation coefficient (R²), and reproducibility (RSD, n = 5) of three iridoid glycosides: 89.60%–109.02%, 0.9991–0.9998, and 0.93%–1.44%, respectively. This study demonstrated the capabilities of ILUAE combined with UPLC/ESI‐QTOFMSⁿ for the rapid screening of glycosides in P. scrophulariiflora. This method offers an approach to similar studies on other natural plants. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Direct Henry reactions with modified calcium oxide as solid catalyst

Commercial CaO was modified simply with benzyl bromide. The modified CaO had good water resistance, and characterization by FTIR and TG revealed the modifier was chemically bonded to the CaO surface. Commercial CaO and CaO modified with benzyl bromide were investigated as catalysts for the Henry reaction between benzaldehyde and nitromethane. It was found that the catalytic activity of the modified CaO was greatly improved, with high conversion of benzaldehyde to the (E)-phenyl nitroolefin and 1-phenyl-2-nitroethanol, and with different selectivity from commercial CaO. The effect of modification and reaction conditions on yield, selectivity, and mechanism were studied thoroughly.     

不同温度热处理后砂岩三点弯曲的断裂特性

通过三点弯曲试验研究了不同温度影响下小尺度砂岩试件的断裂特性,证实温度的影响是明显的.125℃是个临界温度点,此时不仅砂岩的平均断裂韧性达到最大值,而且这时砂岩的裂纹扩展模式也发生了根本性的变化,即低温(低于125℃)热处理后砂岩的断裂以沿颗粒断裂机制为主;而高温(大于125℃)热处理后的砂岩的断裂以破断颗粒和沿颗粒的混合断裂机制为主.在100℃-150℃的温度范围内,砂岩的力学特性变得不稳定,这可能是由于粘土物质内部部分吸附水及层间水的蒸发使得粘土物质孔隙结构发生了变化及力学行为变得不稳定所造成的.从125℃到600℃,砂岩的断裂韧性整体有下降趋势,有约50%的降幅,这不仅与温度影响了粘土物质与矿物的胶结情况有关,也与高温处理后砂岩表面出现的热开裂有关,还与因矿物颗粒及粘土物质的热学性质差异导致冷却后存在的残余应力相关.

泄爆过程中二次爆炸的动力学机理研究

在容积为0.00814m3的柱形泄爆容器中，对泄爆现象进行实验研究. 容器内充满当量比为1的甲烷-空气预混气，采用底端中心点火，泄爆压力为230±15kPa. 基于k-ε湍流模型和EBU燃烧模型，利用同位网格的SIMPLE算法，对该现象进行了数值模拟. 实验和计算获得的外轴线上4个测压点的压力曲线和外流场的阴影和数值照片，形象地描述了高压泄爆时外部流场的变化. 数值结果与实验结果基本一致. 根据实验和数值结果，详细地讨论了泄爆过程中二次爆炸产生的动力学机理. 泄爆的初始阶段，在破膜激波的引导下，泄出的未燃气体因欠膨胀在外流场形成稀疏波低压区和悬激波高压区. 高压区可燃气体密度和温度上升，成为高密度的预热区域. 随后，火焰以射流形式从泄爆口泄出，点燃可燃气云. 受湍流等因素的影响，特别在高密度的预热区域，燃烧速率可能迅速增大，从而导致二次爆炸.     

Graphene as a spacer to layer-by-layer assemble electrochemically functionalized nanostructures for molecular bioelectronic devices

This study demonstrates the capability of graphene as a spacer to form electrochemically functionalized multilayered nanostructures onto electrodes in a controllable manner through layer-by-layer (LBL) chemistry. Methylene green (MG) and positively charged methylimidazolium-functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) were used as examples of electroactive species and electrochemically useful components for the assembly, respectively. By using graphene as the spacer, the multilayered nanostructures of graphene/MG and graphene/MWNT could be readily formed onto electrodes with the LBL method on the basis of the electrostatic and/or π-π interaction(s) between graphene and the electrochemically useful components. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-vis), and cyclic voltammetry (CV) were used to characterize the assembly processes, and the results revealed that nanostructure assembly was uniform and effective with graphene as the spacer. Electrochemical studies demonstrate that the assembled nanostructures possess excellent electrochemical properties and electrocatalytic activity toward the oxidation of NADH and could thus be used as electronic transducers for bioelectronic devices. This potential was further demonstrated by using an alcohol dehydrogenase-based electrochemical biosensor and glucose dehydrogenase-based glucose/O(2) biofuel cell as typical examples. This study offers a simple route to the controllable formation of graphene-based electrochemically functionalized nanostructures that can be used for the development of molecular bioelectronic devices such as biosensors and biofuel cells.     

甲烷部分氧化制合成气Ⅱ．镍系催化剂的反应性能

主要用第四周期金属元素的氧化物与Ａｌ２Ｏ３的复合氧化物催化剂上甲烷氧化的结果证实了催化剂设计中的预测：（１）催化剂首先应能解离活化甲烷，（２）催化剂要能较快地活化Ｏ２分子．只有同时满足这两个条件，催化剂才可能有较好的甲烷部分氧化活性．第四周期元素中只有镍具有这样的性质．Ｃｕ，Ｍｎ，Ｃｒ，Ｌａ，Ｃａ，Ｚｎ等氧化物的添加可明显提高Ｎｉ－Ａｌ２Ｏ３催化剂的甲烷部分氧化性能，其中Ｃｕ的助催化性能最好．催化剂ＮｉＯ－ＣｕＯ－Ａｌ２Ｏ３，ＮｉＯ－ＭｎＯ－Ａｌ２Ｏ３，ＮｉＯ－Ｃｒ２Ｏ３－Ａｌ２Ｏ３的反应活性和选择性顺序，与金属Ｃｕ，Ｍｎ，Ｃｒ上ＣＯ和Ｈ２脱附的顺序是一致的
