The results show that the inert anodes exhibit good performance during electrolysis in molten salt cryolite at 960 °C, but according to the analyses of phase compositions and microstructures through XRD, SEM/EDX and metallographic analysis, the metal in the anodes is preferentially corroded and many pores are produced on the anode surface after electrolysis. The preferential dissolution of Fe in the NiFe2O4 phase may lead to the non-uniform corrosion of NiFe2O4 grains. Moreover, a dense protective layer of NiFe2O4-NiAl2O4-FeAl2O4 is formed on the anode surface, which originates from the reaction of Al2O3 dissolved in the electrolyte with NiO or FeO, the annexation of NiFe2O4-NiAl2O4-FeAl2O4 to NiO and volume expansion. Thus, the dense NiFe2O4-NiAl2O4-FeAl2O4 layer inhibits the metal loss and ceramic-phase corrosion on the surface of the cermet inert anodes.展开更多

The thrce-dimensional (3D) scaffold can provide not only physical properties such as high strength and porosity hut also an optimal environment to enhance tissue regeneration. Sphingosine 1-phosphate (SIP), an angiogenlc factor, was loaded into mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) and then incorporated into poly ( L-lactic add ) ( PLLA ) nanofibrons scaffold, which was fabricated by thermally induced phase separation (TIPS) method. The prepared scaffolds were examined by attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), scanning electron microscopy ( SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and compressive mechanical test. The ATR-FTIR result demonstrated the existence of MSNs in the PLLA nanofibrous scaffold. The SEM images showed that PLLA scaffold had regular pore channel, interconnected pores and nanofibrous structure. The addition of MSNs at appropriate content had no visible effect on the structure of scaffold. The compressive modulus of scaffold containing MSNs was higher than that of the scaffold without MSNs. Furthermore, fluorescein isothiocyanate (FTTC) was used as model molecule to investigate the release behavior of SIP from MSNs- incorporated PLLA (MSNs/PLLA) nanofibrons scaffold. The result showed that the composite scaffold largely reduced the initial burst release and exhibited prolonged release of FITC than MSNs. Thus, these results indicated that SIP-loaded composite uanofibrons scaffold has potential applications for bone tissue engneering.展开更多

The nanosilica sol was modified by the addition of the reactive coupling agent methacrylexy propyltrimethoxysilane ( MPS), and the resulting latex particles were protected by surfactants such as sodium dodecyl sulphonate( SDS), hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose ( HMPC), and poly (vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP). The effects of the type of surfactant, the amount of surfactant, and the coupling agent on the shape and stability of the resulting latex particles were investigated. The TEM observation indicates that among SDS, HMPC, and PVP, SDS is the best surfactant. When the content of SDS is 0. 5% and the amount of MPS is 7% in the system, the latex with obvious core-shell structure could be obtained. The average diameters of the monodispersed particles range from 182 to 278 nm, and the average number of silica beads for each composite are 1325 and 4409, respectively. The FrIR analysis shows that PS was chemically linked to silica through MPS. The thermal gravimetric analysis shows that when there is a higher silica content, the hybrid composites have a better heat resistance.展开更多

The retention behaviors of four major constituents (Al 3+ , Fe 2+ , Ti 4+ , Si 4+ ) in bauxite mineral have been examined on plain and modified layers of silica gel G, silica gel H and cellulose with mobile phases containing aqueous sodium chloride, formic acid and hydrochloric acid. Ternary separation of Al-Fe-Ti was achieved on chromatographic plates made of silica gel H. The pH effect and presence of impurity elements in samples, nature of stationary phases on the ternary separation and detection limits of bauxite constituents were studied. Silicon in bauxite was detected on cellulose plates. Quantitative determinations of Al 3+ , Fe 2+ and Ti 4+ on silica gel H impregnated with sodium formate layers were achieved by titrimetry and spectrophotometry.展开更多
