A theoretical model was proposed to predict the S-tolerant performance of the Pd-Cu membranes in presence of H2S under the industrial water-gas-shift(WGS) reaction conditions. The ideas of surface coverage and competitive adsorption thermodynamics of H2S and H2 on Pd-Cu surface were introduced in the model. The surface sulphidization of the Pd-Cu membranes mainly depended on the pressure ratio of H2S to H2, temperature and S-adsorbed surface coverage, i.e., the occurrence of sulphidization on the surface was not directly related with the bulk compositions and structures [body centered cubic and face centered cubic(bcc or fcc)] of Pd-Cu alloy membranes because of the surface segregation phenomena. The resulting equilibrium equations for the H2S adsorption/sulphidization reactions were solved to calculate the pressure ratio of H2S to H2 over a wide range of temperatures. A validation of the model was performed through a comparison between lots of literature data and the model calculations over a rather broad range of operating conditions. An extremely good agreement was obtained in the different cases, and thus, the model can serve to guide the development of S-resistant Pd alloy membrane materials for hydrogen separation.展开更多

The electrochemical behavior of lincomycin at Au-PtNPs/nanoPAN/CS modified GCE was investigated by cyclic voltammetry, linear sweep voltammetry and chronocoulometry. Cyclic voltammetric experiments show that lincomycin at the nanocomposite membrane modified electrode exhibited a pair of quasi-reversible redox peaks in pH=6.0 PBS. The membrane could accelerate the electron transfer of lincomycin on the electrode and significantly enhance the peak current. In a range of 3.0-100.0 mg/L, the reductive peak current of lincomycin at 0.42 V was linearly related to its concentration and the linear regression equation was ip,c=0.2703ρ-0.0042（ip, c： μA; ρ： mg/L; r=0.998, n=7） with a detection limit of 1.0 mg/L（S/N =3）. Compared with other methods, this method exhibited many advantages such as high sensitivity, selectivity, wide linear range and low detection limit. The method was used to determine the content of lincomycin in injections commercially available with satisfactory results. Some electrochemical parameters involved in the redox reaction of lincomycin, such as parameter of kinetic ha, standard rate constant ks and the number of H^＋, were also calculated.展开更多

As for pure Al, the maximum thickness of anodized aluminum oxide (AAO) membrane, 216 nm, is obtained by being anodized in 4% solution. Its average pore diameter is around 70 nm, and pore density exceeds 10 10 /cm 2. Under the same technology condition, the membrane thickness decreases with increment of electrolyte content. TEM images show that element Mg or Mn added into aluminum alloy can damage the integration of AAO membrane. During anodizing of aluminum, the formed oxide layer is amorphous. After being annealed at 600 ℃ for 24 h, it is still amorphous. However, when membrane is annealed at 930 ℃, the amorphous oxide begins to transform to γ Al 2O 3 .展开更多
