二元液态金属Cu-Ni和Ag-Cu凝固过程的分子动力学模拟研究

用Quantum Sutton-Chen多体势对Ag6Cu4和CuNi液态金属凝固过程进行了分子动力学模拟研究.在冷却速率2×1012到2×1014K/s范围内,CuNi总是形成fcc晶体结构,而Ag6Cu4总是形成非晶态结构.考虑到CuNi及AgCu中原子半径之比分别为1.025和1.13,那么模拟结果证实了原子的尺寸差别是非晶态合金形成的一个主要影响因素.此外采用键对及原子多面体类型指数法对凝固过程中微观结构组态变化的分析,不但能说明二十面体结构在非晶态合金形成和稳定性中所起的关键作用,又有助于对液态金属的凝固过程、非晶态结构特征的深入理解.     

Solidification of metallic tin in dispersed phase

Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and particle size measurements were carried out on disproportionation products of pure SnO to investigate the fusion and solidification behaviour of Sn droplets and their catalytic nucleation on Sn oxides. If disproportionation reaction takes place at T ≥ 798 K, the products are metallic Sn and SnO₂; but for 523 < T < 798 K, SnO₂ is replaced by an intermediate oxide (IO) Sn_xO_(1+x). On melting, samples with IO show a drop of melting point of metallic tin due to Gibbs–Thomson effect; no lowering of melting point was observed in samples with SnO₂. On the other hand, if solidification occurs in the presence of IO, Tin droplets always displayed three distinct exothermic solidification peaks, but if it takes place in the presence of SnO₂, only one exothermic peak is observed. Undercooling values and contact angles were determined for each of the heterogeneous nucleation processes. The different behaviour of metallic Tin droplets was related to the different lattice symmetry of SnO₂ and IO, which act as nucleation catalysts.

Freezing of Lennard-Jones fluid in cylindrical nanopores under tensile conditions

We have shown the Lennard-Jones (LJ) phase diagram for a slit-shaped nanopore by molecular simulations and thermodynamically predicted the results with no adjustable parameter. With this success, LJ phase diagrams are predictable. In this study, the freezing of an LJ CH₄ capillary condensate under a tensile condition in a nonstructural carbon nanopore with a cylindrical geometry was examined using molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. We employ a unit cell in contact with a bulk vapor phase, which is useful for the determination of the bulk vapor pressure in equilibrium with the molecules in a pore. The MD simulation results show liquid-solid (amorphous) phase transitions with a variation in the bulk vapor pressure. The frozen particles are arranged in concentric circular regions along the wall similar to those reported by Maddox and Gubbins. The freezing points are determined from the variations in density, enthalpy, arrangement, and structural functions. The obtained liquid-solid coexistence points are found to exhibit a significant dependence of the freezing point on the equilibrium bulk vapor pressure, forming an extraordinarily skewed curve on the p-T diagram, in contrast to the bulk phase coexistence that is represented by an almost vertical line. The origin of the significant dependence is considered to be the Laplace effect on the capillary condensate similar to the case with a slit-shaped pore. A simple model, which the authors earlier presented for slit-shaped nanopores, successfully predicted the p-T relation of the freezing point for cylindrical nanopores as well.     

Synthesis of 5-(7-Hydroxyheptyl)-1,2-dithiolan-3-one 1-Oxide,a Core Functionality of Antibiotic Leinamycin

5-(7-Hydroxyheptyl)-1,2-dithiolan-3-one 1-oxide was designed and synthesized in our laboratories that contain the heterocycle of 1,2-dithiolan-3-one 1-oxide, a reactive core of antibiotic leinamycin. In addition, the activated ester of 5-(7-hydroxyheptyl)-1,2-dithiolan-3-one 1-oxide was prepared, which presumably is useful for coupling this DNA-cleaving functionality to certain DNA-binding agents.     

DRDF analysis of wide-angle x-ray scattering of natural rubber

A differential radial distribution function (DRDF) of molten natural rubber (NR) was derived from its wide-angle x-ray scattering (WAXS) data. Three peaks with Bragg spacings 4.85, 2.31, and 1.23 Å corresponding, respectively, to interchain, C₁-C₃ and C₁ -C₂ distances are present in the corrected WAXS curve. The derived DRDF, which is shown to be greatly improved than the ones published so far, contains six peaks located at 1.51, 2.48, 3.98, 5.68, 10.65, and 15.25 Å. Maximum contributions of intramolecular atomic distances to the radial distribution peaks were estimated and compared with the experimental results. The comparison shows that the first three peaks are intramolecular in origin and the remaining peaks are predominantly due to intermolecular regularities. A periodicity of an approximately constant interval of 5.26 Å is found between the intermolecular peaks and is attributable to the organizations of more or less parallel chain segments in the material. This finding provided additional evidence for the presence of local lateral ordering to the extent of about 30 Å in molten-state natural rubber.     

Determination of fungicides in sediments using a dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction procedure based on solidification of floating organic drop

A dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction procedure based on solidification of floating organic droplet has been investigated for the determination of fungicides (cyprodinil, difenoconazole, myclobutanil, and spiroxamine) in sediments by HPLC with diode array detection. In the overall extraction process, the extraction solvents can be separated easily from the sample solution, and the experiment time was shortened. Moreover, several parameters such as the type and volume of the extraction solvent and dispersive solvent, centrifugal speed, extraction time, and salt effect that affect the extraction efficiencies of the target fungicides were studied and optimized. Under the optimized conditions, the LOD for the target analytes were in the range of 0.1–0.5 μg/g. Satisfactory recoveries of the target analytes in the sediment samples were 81.00–99.00%, with RSDs (n = 5) that ranged from 1.8 to 6.5%. Finally, the simple, sensitive, and environmentally friendly method was successfully applied to determine the target fungicides in actual sediment samples.     

Determination of 12 additives in beverages by evaporation-assisted dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction based on the solidification of floating organic droplets combined with liquid chromatographyEI北大核心CSCD

An analytical method for the simultaneous determination of 12 additives in beverages was developed using evaporation-assisted dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction based on the solidification of floating organic droplets EVA-DLLME-SFOcombined with high performance liquid chromatography HPLC. The samples were extracted twice with 70%V/Vmethanol aqueous solution and extracted by EVA-DLLME-SFO method after the combination of the extractsand finally determined by HPLC. Extraction parameterssuch as types and amounts of extractantevaporant and heating agentthe concentration of saltand the extraction time were optimized. Under the optimized conditionsthere were good relationships in the ange of 0.25-50 μµg/mL with the limits of detection of 1.5 to 13.6 mg/kg and limits of quantification of 5.2 to 45.3 mg/kg. The recoveries at three spiked levels1025 and 50 mg/kgwere 76.8% to 101.2% with the relative standard deviations of 0.11% to 4.7%. The method can be used for rapid detection of 12 additives in beverages. © 2022, Youke Publishing Co.,Ltd. All rights reserved.     

Finite element modelling of natural-convection-controlled change of phase

The problem of phase change in the presence of natural convection has been investigated. A model has been proposed based on the treatment of the release/absorption of latent heat as a heat source/sink in combination with the standard Galerkin finite element method with a primitive variable formulation on a fixed grid. To demonstrate the capabilities of the model, three cases of phase change of an aluminium alloy in the presence of natural convection arc considered, i.e. solidification, melting and combined solidification and melting. The solidification of water in a square cavity is modelled as another example, taking into account the density extremum, and the results are compared with a previously published work.     

Influence of Nucleation Agents Concentration on Crystallization Structure and Properties of Glass-ceramics

Deep color glass-ceramics is prepared by using gold tailings as the main raw material, and Cr2O3 is added as nucleation agent. Influence of different Cr2O3 additions on crystallization structure and properties of CaO-MgO-Al2O3-SiO2 glass-ceramics has been discussed so as to select optimum additions. DTA is employed to determine optimum crystallization and nucleation temperatures; XRD and SEM are used to characterize microstructure of each sample; and performance indexes, such as water absorption, bulk density, flexural strength and so on, are also determined. Experimental results show that when 3wt% Cr2O3 is introduced, fine glass-ceramics with diopside as the main crystal and Ca-Fe diopside as the second-crystal is obtained, and its corresponding performance indexes are as follows: water absorption 0.12%, bulk density 2.56 g/cm3, and flexural strength 70.01 Mpa.
