Rapid synthesis of CNTs@MIL-101(Cr) using multi-walled carbon nanotubes(MWCNTs) as crystal growth accelerator

In this work,hybrid material CNTs@MIL-101(Cr) was synthesized in 2 h using multi-walled carbon nanotubes(MWCNTs) as the crystal growth accelerator with hydrothermal method.The characteristic differences between the crystals of CNTs@MIL-101(Cr) and MIL-101 were investigated by N_2 adsorption–desorption isotherms,X-ray diffraction(XRD),scanning electron microscope(SEM) and thermogravimetric analyzer(TGA).The results showed that MWCNTs embedding in the hybrid material provide more mesoporous volumes than that of MIL-101.Moreover,the fast synthesized crystals of CNTs@MIL-101(Cr) still preserve the octahedral shape like MIL-101 and have a larger size ranging from 1.5 to 2.0 μm which were approximately three times larger than that of MIL-101.In the proposed mechanism,the roles of MWCNTs played in the crystallization were discussed where MWCNTs can be seen as coaxial cylindrical tubes composed of multi-layer graphenes and the place where nucleation and crystal growth processes occur at the tubes' out surface.Then,a crystal seeding layer bonding with the MWCNTs may be easily formed which accelerates the growth rate of MIL-101 crystals.Thus,larger crystals of CNTs@MIL-101(Cr) were formed due to the faster crystal growth rate of MIL-101.

Distribution of organic carbon fractions in soil aggregates in Chinese fir plantations with different stand ages

Background:Revealing the variations in soil aggregate-related organic carbon(OC)and labile organic carbon(LOC)fractions in a chronosequence of Chinese fir plantations plays an important role in better understanding the impact of soil carbon sink or source on the Chinese fir plantation ecosystem.In this study,soil samples in a depth of 0–20 cm were collected from Chinese fir plantations at different stand ages(0,9,17,and 26 years old)in Guangxi,China.With the optimal moisture sieving method adopted,the soil aggregates of 4 different sizes were obtained,including>2-mm,2–1-mm,1–0.25-mm,and<0.25-mm aggregates.Soil OC and LOC fractions were measured in the aggregates of different sizes.The LOC fractions included readily oxidizable carbon(ROC),particulate organic carbon(POC),microbial biomass carbon(MBC),water-soluble organic carbon(WOC),and mineralized organic carbon(MOC).Results:Soil aggregate stability,as indicated by the mean weight diameter(MWD),was the highest in the 17-yearold Chinese fir plantations and was significantly positively related(p<0.05)to the concentrations of OC and LOC fractions(except for the ROC and MOC),with the POC in particular.As for all stand ages of Chinese fir plantations,the concentrations of soil OC and LOC fractions were significantly increased as the aggregate size decreased.Consequently,there were more OC and LOC fractions distributed in the<0.25-mm aggregates.During the stand development,the concentrations of soil OC and LOC fractions first increased and then decreased,with the highest levels detected in the 17-year-old Chinese fir plantations,indicating that the 17-year-old Chinese fir plantations were conducive to the accumulation of soil OC and LOC fractions.Conclusion:After 17 years of planting,promoted soil carbon(especially for the POC)accumulation contributes significantly to enhancing soil aggregate stability for the Chinese fir plantations in Guangxi,China.

Modular derivations for extensions of Poisson algebras

We compute explicitly the modular derivations for Poisson-Ore extensions and tensor products of Poisson algebras.

Poisson double extensions

A double Ore extension was introduced by Zhang and Zhang(2008)to study a class of ArtinShelter regular algebras.Here we give a definition of Poisson double extension which may be considered as an analogue of the double Ore extension,and show that algebras in a class of double Ore extensions are deformation quantizations of Poisson double extensions.We also investigate the modular derivations of Poisson double extensions and the relationship between Poisson double extensions and iterated Poisson polynomial extensions.Results are illustrated by examples.

Frobenius Poisson algebras

This paper is devoted to study Frobenius Poisson algebras. We introduce pseudo-unimodular Poisson algebras by generalizing unimodular Poisson algebras, and investigate Batalin-Vilkovisky structures on their cohomology algebras. For any Frobenius Poisson algebra, all Eatalin-Vilkovisky opera tors on its Poisson cochain complex are described explicitly. It is proved that there exists a Batalin-Vilkovisky operator on its cohomology algebra which is induced from a Batalin-Vilkovisky operator on the Poisson cochain complex, if and only if the Poisson st rue ture is pseudo-unimodular. The relation bet ween modular derivations of polynomial Poisson algebras and those of their truncated Poisson algebras is also described in some cases.
