A Quantitative Structure Property Relationship for Prediction of Flash Point of Alkanes Using Molecular Connectivity Indices

Many structure-property/activity studies use graph theoretical indices, which are based on the topological properties of a molecule viewed as a graph. Since topological indices can be derived directly from the molecular structure without any experimental effort, they provide a simple and straightforward method for property prediction. In this work the flash point of alkanes was modeled by a set of molecular connectivity indices （Х）, modified molecular connectivity indices （ ^mХ^v ） and valance molecular connectivity indices （ ^mХ^v ）, with ^mХ^v calculated using the hydrogen perturbation. A stepwise Multiple Linear Regression （MLR） method was used to select the best indices. The predicted flash points are in good agreement with the experimental data, with the average absolute deviation 4.3 K.

STUDY ON THE MICROSTRUCTURE AND PROPERTY OF PET FIBER BY LASER RAMAN MICROSCOPE

In this paper, the microstructure change of one step-draw PET fiber has been studied byvarious methods, such as, Laser Raman Microscope, Wide-angle X-ray, Density-gradient andPolarizing Microscope. The computer has been used to resolve overlapped bands in the Ramanspectra. Then the band changes have been correlated with trans, gauche and stressed trans-conformations indicated by a conformational index. Based on these indices, the relationshipbetween the conformation change of glycol units in the fiber structure and the macromechanicalproperties of fiber is expounded.

Structure and Property of AgLaY Alloy

The structure of RE-Ag alloy was observed and analyzed using electron probe. The property changes of the alloy containing two rare earth elements AgLaY during cold forming and the high temperature softening-resistance during annealing were studied using Vickers hardness tester. The distribution and action of the rare earth elements in Ag-alloy were also analyzed. Experimental results show that AgLaY alloy has more remarkable work-hardening effect than AgLa and pure silver, and it also has better thermal-resistance. The effects of RE elements, La and Y, on the properties of Ag-alloy are attributable to their symbiotic distribution and complementary function. Because of the common properties of La and Y as RE elements, they have the completely similar distribution in Ag-alloy. At the same time, La and Y make full use of complementary role in the alloy since they belong to different periods in periodic table and have differences in atomic structure and properties.

STUDY ON STRUCTURE,CHEMICAL BOND AND THERMOELECTRIC PROPERTY OF BORON CARBIDES

The correlation between structure, chemical bond and thermoelectric properties of boron carbides is discussed based on structural calculations with self-consistent-field discrete variation (SCF-DV-X-a) method, one of calculation methods of molecular orbital in quantum chemistry. Nine different structural models far calculation are proposed. The calculated results show that the chain is negatively charged and the icosahedron is positively charged, i. e. [C-B-B(C)](delta-) - [B11B(C)](delta+). The total strength of the five covalent bonds between an atom and its five co-ordinating atoms in the icosahedra is slightly larger than the three times of strength of a single bond. The bond between icosahedron and chain or between icosahedra is single bond, but the bond between boron in the middle of chain and carbon or other boron has the characteristic of a double bond. Models 3 and 4 (C-B-B-B11C) are the most stable and easily formed, and the charges of icosahedra of these two models are the lowest, so the disproportionation reaction occurs and the bipolaron forms easily, and the concentration of the carriers and conductivity are the largest, which is consistent with the experimental result that the conductivity has the largest value when the cat-ban content is 13.3%.
