We developed a serie...To make photoinitiators (PI) to be polymeric and water-soluble is an effective approach to develop the high efficient photoinitiator systems with low-migration, low-toxic and environment-friend. We developed a series of novel amphiphilic hyperhranched polymeric photoinitiators (hPEA-TXs, and hPEA- BPs) by introducing thioxanthone (TX) or benzophenone (BP) moieties into the periphery of the hyperbranched poly(ether amine) (hPEA) comprised of the hydrophilic poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) short chain and coinitiator amine moieties in the backbone. Compared with their water-soluble low-molecular weight analogues, the resulting hyperbranched polymeric photoinitiators hPEA101-TX, hPEA211-TX, hPEA101-BP and hPEA211-BP could be dissolved very well not only in many organic systems including acrylate monomers, but also in water with high solubility of 10 wt~. The photopolymerization kinetics of water-soluble monomer acrylamide (AM) and three hydrophobic multifunctional acrylate monomers initiated by these hyperbranched photoinitiators were investigated in detail by photo-differential scanning calorimetric (photo-DSC). Both hPEA-TXs and hPEA-BPs can initiate photopolymerization of AM as efficiently as their low-molecular weight analogues MGA-TX and MGA-BP, respectively. The final double bond conversion (DBC) of oil-soluble monomer hexanediol diacrylate (HDDA) photoinitiated by these hyperbranched photoinitiators can reach as high as 99%. Especially for photopolymerization of multifunctional monomers initiated by these hyperbranched polymeric photoinitiators, the final DBC of trimethylolpropane triacrylate (TMPTA) and pentaerythritol tetraacrylate (PETTA) can reach 80% and 60%, respectively, which is much higher than that of low-molecular weight photoinitiators.展开更多

文摘Carbon fiber(CF)/pyrolytic graphite(PG) composites are promising structural materials for molten salt reactors because of their superior performance.Due to the minor density difference between CF and PG, existing methods are impractical for efficient three-dimensional characterization of CF/PG composites.Therefore, in this study, a method based on in-line phasecontrast X-ray microtomography was developed to solve the aforementioned problem.Experimental results demonstrate that the method is suitable for comprehensive characterization of CF/PG composites.The relationship between the microporous defects and fiber orientations of such composites was also elucidated.The findings can be useful for improving the manufacturing process of CF/PG composites.

文摘Three-dimensional(3D)reconstruction of the equivalent pore network model(PNM)using X-ray computed tomography(CT)data are of significance for studying the CO_(2)-enhanced coalbed methane recovery(CO_(2)-ECBM).The docking among X-ray CT technology,MATLAB,with COMSOL software not only can realize the 3D reconstruction of PNM,but also the CO_(2)-ECBM process simulation.The results show that the Median filtering algorithm enabled the de-noising of the original 2D CT slices,the image segmentation of all slices was realized based on the selected threshold,and the PNM can be constructed based on the Maximum Sphere algorithm.The mathematical model of CO_(2)-ECBM process fully coupled the expanded Langmuir equation.At the same time for CO_(2)injection,CH_(4)pressure tends to decrease with the increase of CO_(2)pressure,but its difference is not obvious.The CH_(4)pressure in the slice center changed a lot,while at the edge it changed a little under different CO_(2)pressures.The injected CO_(2)was transported to matrix along the macro and micro-fractures with continuous flow.The injected CO_(2)first replaced the adsorbed CH_(4)by covering the inner surface of macro-pores and meso-pores to form the single molecular layer adsorption of CO_(2).Then they migrated to micro-pores by Fick’s diffusion,sliding flow,and surface diffusion.Furthermore,the CO_(2)replaced CH_(4)adsorbed by volumetric filling in micro-pores,and formed the multi-molecular layer adsorption of CO_(2).The gas pressure and migration path between CO_(2)and CH_(4)are opposite.This study can provide a theoretical basis for studying digital rock physics technology and enrich the development of CO_(2)-ECBM technology.

文摘The structure and size of SiC nanoparticles were studied by different characterization methods including small angle X-ray scattering(SAXS),transmission electron microscope(TEM),and X-ray diffraction(XRD).The results showed that particle size distributions determined respectively from SAXS and TEM are comparable and follow the log-normal function.The size distribution of the particles is between 10 to 100nm with most of them being in the range of 20-50nm.The average particle size is around 42nm.XRD identifies the phase of the SiC nanoparticles and suggests the average size of the single crystalline domain to be around 21nm.The combined results from XRD and SAXS suggest the existence of many polycrystals,which is confirmed by the HRTEM observation of particles with twins and stacking faults.The material synthesis methods leading to various particle sizes are also discussed.

文摘To make photoinitiators (PI) to be polymeric and water-soluble is an effective approach to develop the high efficient photoinitiator systems with low-migration, low-toxic and environment-friend. We developed a series of novel amphiphilic hyperhranched polymeric photoinitiators (hPEA-TXs, and hPEA- BPs) by introducing thioxanthone (TX) or benzophenone (BP) moieties into the periphery of the hyperbranched poly(ether amine) (hPEA) comprised of the hydrophilic poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) short chain and coinitiator amine moieties in the backbone. Compared with their water-soluble low-molecular weight analogues, the resulting hyperbranched polymeric photoinitiators hPEA101-TX, hPEA211-TX, hPEA101-BP and hPEA211-BP could be dissolved very well not only in many organic systems including acrylate monomers, but also in water with high solubility of 10 wt~. The photopolymerization kinetics of water-soluble monomer acrylamide (AM) and three hydrophobic multifunctional acrylate monomers initiated by these hyperbranched photoinitiators were investigated in detail by photo-differential scanning calorimetric (photo-DSC). Both hPEA-TXs and hPEA-BPs can initiate photopolymerization of AM as efficiently as their low-molecular weight analogues MGA-TX and MGA-BP, respectively. The final double bond conversion (DBC) of oil-soluble monomer hexanediol diacrylate (HDDA) photoinitiated by these hyperbranched photoinitiators can reach as high as 99%. Especially for photopolymerization of multifunctional monomers initiated by these hyperbranched polymeric photoinitiators, the final DBC of trimethylolpropane triacrylate (TMPTA) and pentaerythritol tetraacrylate (PETTA) can reach 80% and 60%, respectively, which is much higher than that of low-molecular weight photoinitiators.

文摘Representative elementary volume(REV)is the key to study the heterogeneity of digital coal and characterize its macroscopic and microscopic properties.The permeability evolution law of digital coal based on REV analysis can provide theoretical support for the application of permeability prediction model in multi-scale reservoirs.This study takes typical coal samples from Bofang and Sihe coal mines in Qinshui Basin as research object.First,the nondestructive information of two samples is scanned and visualized.Secondly,the calculation methods of two-dimensional(2D)and threedimensional(3D)fractal dimensions of pores and fractures are illustrated.Then,the determination methods of REV based on porosity and fractal dimension are compared.Finally,the distribution pattern of fractal dimension and porosity curves is studied,the relationship between 2D and 3D fractal dimension is characterized,and the application of fractal permeability model in permeability analysis of multi-scale reservoir is further discussed.The REV size varies greatly in different vertex directions of the same sample and between samples,so REV analysis can only be performed in specific directions.When the REV based on fractal dimension is determined,the porosity curve continues to maintain a downward trend and then tends to be stable.The 2D fractal dimension has a positive linear correlation with the 3D fractal dimension,and the porosity can be expressed as a linear function of the fractal dimension.The permeability through REV analysis domain is mainly affected by fractal dimension,dip angle,azimuth angle and maximum fracture length,which is of great significance for exploring permeability evolution law of coal reservoir at different scales.This study is of great significance for enriching the determination methods of REV in digital coal and exploring the permeability evolution law of multi-scale reservoirs.

文摘Lithium(Li)metal is widely considered the ultimate anode for future rechargeable batteries.However,dendritic growth and related parasitic reactions during long-term cycling often lead to severe safety hazards and catastrophic failure.Herein,we fabricate a hybrid anode by coating single-phase Li_(21)Si_(5)on lithium metal.The resultant electrodes show a stable cycle and depressed polarization in symmetric and half cells.A planar plating/stripping behavior is observed on the modified anode.The investigation of the interplay of Li and Li_(21)Si_(5)shows relatively large adsorption energy in the Li-Si system.The deposition and stripping are surface processes,and Li_(21)Si_(5)maintains its intrinsic phase structure.The deposited Li layer around Li_(21)Si_(5)also has the advantage of diminished preferred orientation,which also contributes to the planar growth of Li.Both LiFePO4(LFP)and LiNi1/3Co1/3 Mn1/3O2(NCM)cathodes were applied to further demonstrate the enhanced rate and cycle performance.
文摘The conduction mechanism of gate leakage current through thermally grown silicon dioxide(Si02)films on(100) p-type silicon has been investigated in detail under negative bias on the degenerately doped n-type polysilicon(n^+-polySi) gate.The analysis utilizes the measured gate current density JG at high oxide fields Eox in5.4 to 12 nm thick Si02 films between 25 and 300 ℃.The leakage current measured up to 300 ℃ was due to Fowler-Nordheim(FN) tunneling of electrons from the accumulated n^+-polySi gate in conjunction with Poole Frenkel(PF) emission of trapped-electrons from the electron traps located at energy levels ranging from 0.6 to 1.12 eV(depending on the oxide thickness) below the Si02 conduction band(CB).It was observed that PF emission current IPF dominates FN electron tunneling current IFN at oxide electric fields EOX between 6 and 10 MV/cm and throughout the temperature range studied here.Understanding of the mechanism of leakage current conduction through Si02 films plays a crucial role in simulation of time-dependent dielectric breakdown(TDDB) of metaloxide-semiconductor(MOS) devices and to precisely predict the normal operating field or applied gate voltage for lifetime projection of the MOS integrated circuits.
