The effects of roasting temperature, granularity, molar ratio of sodium carbonate to potash feldspar and roasting time on the silica extraction rate were investigated. Under the optimal roasting conditions, the silica extraction rate was 98%. The optimal conditions, determined using an orthogonal experiment, were found to be roasting temperature of 875 A degrees C, potash feldspar granularity of 74-89 mu m, molar ratio of sodium carbonate to potash feldspar of 1.2:1, and roasting time of 80 min. The kinetics of potash feldspar roasting in the presence of sodium carbonate was described by the shrinking core model and the reaction rate was found to be controlled by the chemical reaction at the particle surface. According to the Arrhenius expression, the activation energy was 164.99 kJ/mol, and the process could be expressed as [1-(1-alpha)(1/3)]=2.66x10(5) exp[-164990/(RT)] t.展开更多

The effects of factors such as reaction temperature and Na OH-to-CBM mass ratio on silicon extraction efficiency were studied. The results show that silicon extraction efficiency increases with increasing the reaction time and Na OH-to-CBM mass ratio. There are two stages for the desilication process of the calcined boron mud. The overall desilication process follows the shrinking-core model, and the first and second stages of the process were determined to obey the shrinking-core model for surface chemical reaction and the diffusion through the product layer, respectively. The activation energies of the first and second stages were calculated to be 44.78 k J/mol and 15.94 k J/mol, respectively.展开更多
Density functional theory (DFT) calculations on two isomers of C68 with the minimal number of fused pentagon pairs, its anions and Sc3N as well as Sc3N@C68 (6140) metallofullerene were carded out at the B3LYP/6-3...Density functional theory (DFT) calculations on two isomers of C68 with the minimal number of fused pentagon pairs, its anions and Sc3N as well as Sc3N@C68 (6140) metallofullerene were carded out at the B3LYP/6-31G^* level. The optimized configurations and electrostatic potential distributions have been obtained. The calculated results show that the electrostatic potentials of C68 (6140) inside the sphere have three minima in the middle of the double bonds at fusion of two hexagonal rings. In contrast, potential minimum Vmin(r) of C68 (6275) inside the sphere occurs at the center of the sphere. Concerning the two isomers of C68, the largest regions with the most negative MEP outside the sphere are both localized in the neighborhood of pentagon-pentagon vertex fusions. They constitute the most probable active sites in chemical reactions. Our results present a reasonable explanation for the bonding between scandium atoms and fullerene cage.展开更多
