In this work, a synergistic benzene tandem-oxidation catalyst that V-Cu bimetallic oxides modified nanoporous silica(VCu-NS)was constructed via a facile assembly strategy which involves addictive negative anion citric acid mediating the intercalation of metal-citric acid chelate in mesopore of silica and subsequent thermal calcination inducing dual-metal active site formation. Such a tactic could make amorphous VOxspecies well covered on the surface of mesopore, and ultrafine copper oxide particles surrounded and neighbored by highly dispersed VOxwith strong interplay in mesopore, which was comprehensively confirmed by various characterizations. Benefiting from the unique V-Cu neighboring effect, the desorption of formed phenol over the catalytic site might be restricted therefore easily further activated by the formed reactive oxidative species, 3VCu-NS shows synergetic tandem-oxidation catalytic activities for benzene towards benzenediol with a selectivity of 57%. The result allows optimal 3VCu-NS to be a promising catalyst for benzenediol synthesis from benzene.展开更多

The stability of aluminium titanate research for improving product quality, and expanding its application field is of great significance. Aluminum titanate as glass melt erosion resistance and high temperature resistant, can be applied to high temperature pigment base. The medium temperature stability of aluminum titanate can be improved by ion doping, and magnesium stability of aluminum titanate has been widely studied. Therefore aluminium titanate is expected to become an ideal high temperature ceramic base material. In this paper, the preparation technology of magnesium-stabilized aluminum titanate powder was reviewed, and the preparation of magnesium-stabilized aluminum titanate powder by non-hydrolyzed sol-gel was mainly introduced.展开更多

Based on single-fac- tor experiments, the effects of different carbon sources, composite carbon sources, nitrogen sources, calcium carbonate concentrations, initial pH and surfactants on xylanase production by A. niger NS-1 were investigated. The results indicated that the most appropriate carbon source was corncobs ; the best composite carbon source was corncobs ＋ xylan, which was conducive to xylanase secretion; the most suitable nitrogen source was ammonium sulfate. Xylanase activity reached the highest in the medium added with 1.5% calcium carbonate and SDS as a surfactant with an initial pH of 5.0. This study provided the basis for the production of high-activity xylanase.展开更多

FAST will soon begin the Commensal Radio Astronomy FasT Survey(CRAFTS), a novel and unprecedented commensal drift scan survey of the entire sky visible from FAST. The goal of CRAFTS is to cover more than 20000 deg2 and reach redshift up to about 0.35. We provide empirical measurements of the beam size and sensitivity of FAST across the 1.05 to 1.45 GHz frequency range of the FAST L-band array of 19-beams(FLAN). Using a simulated HI-galaxy catalogue based on the HI Mass Function(HIMF), we estimate the number of galaxies that CRAFTS may detect. At redshifts below 0.35, over 6 × 105 HI galaxies may be detected. Below the redshift of 0.07, the CRAFTS HIMF will be complete above a mass threshold of 109.5 M⊙. FAST will be able to investigate the environmental and redshift dependence of the HIMF to an unprecedented depth, shedding light onto the missing baryon and missing satellite problems.展开更多
