This work reports the experimental study on the preparation of graphene(GN) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes(MWCNTs) based nanofluids with the assistance of sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate(SDBS) and sodium dodecyl sulfate(SDS) surfactants, and their thermal behaviors. The present work suggests not a solution, but a solution approach and deduces a new conclusion by trying to resolve the agglomeration problem and improve the dispersibility of nanoparticles in the base fluid. The analysis results of FESEM, thermal conductivity, diffusivity, effusivity and heat transfer coefficient enhancement ratio of nanofluid with surfactants SDS and SDBS expose strong evidence of the dispersing effect of surfactant on the making of nanofluid.展开更多

In th...A kinetic model fitted by the empirical equation has been proposed to describe the liquid drainage behavior. Rate constants （kd） of liquid drainage equation could be obtained from the above empirical equation. In this paper, the stability of the colloidal gas aphrons （CGAs）, the effect of concentrations of sodium dodecyl benzene sulphate （SDBS）, dodecyl trimethylammonium bromide （HTAB） and polyoxyethylene sorbitol anhydride monolaurate（Tween-20）, temperature, stirring speed, stirring time, and various kinds of salts on the kd of liquid drainage are further investigated. The results show that the Arrhenius equation can be successfully used to describe the relation between kd arid absolute temperature （T）, and concentrations of surfactants, stirring speed, stirring time and salinities also have great effect on the kd. At last, the CGAs drainage mechanism is explained from analysis of the rate of liquid drainage as a function of time.展开更多

Preparing calcium sulfate whisker(CSW) from FGD gypsum by hydrothermal synthesis is considered to be a promising approach to solve this troublesome problem and utilize calcium sulfate in a high-value-added way. The effects of particle size of FGD gypsum, slurry concentration,and additives on CSW were investigated in this work. The results indicated that fine particle size of FGD gypsum and moderately high slurry concentration were beneficial for crystal nucleation and growth. Three additives of magnesium chloride, citric acid, and sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate(SDBS) were employed in this study. It was found that mean length and aspect ratio of CSW were both decreased by the usage of magnesium chloride,while a small quantity of citric acid or SDBS could improve the CSW morphology. When multi-additives of citric acid-SDBS were employed, the mean length and aspect ratio increased more than 20%. Moreover, surface morphology of CSW went better, and the particle size and crystal shape became more uniform.展开更多

Dielectric constants were determined by measuring capacitance.It is found that the selectivity of the additives toward coal or minerals is not consistent.Salicylic acid is the optimal additive to enhance the triboelectrification performance of coal samples.Starch, lignin and sodium oleate are suitable for removal of pyrite.SH,sodium silicate,SDBS,SB and ammonia are suitable additives for the removal of ash-forming minerals.展开更多

The equilibrium compositions of the vapor phase of binary systems were calculated indirectly from the total pressure-temperature-liquid composition (pTx). The experimental data were correlated with the Wilson and NRTL(non-random two liquid) equations. The parameters of the Wilson model were employed to predict the ternary VLE data. The calculated boiling points were in good agreement with the experimental ones.展开更多

Eu-doped α-Ga2O3 and β-Ga2O3 were further fabricated by annealing GaOOH：Eu and then characterized by X-ray diffraction（XRD）, transmission electron microscopy （TEM） and photoluminescence （PL）. The TEM results show that monodisperse Eu^3＋-doped GaOOH nanoparticles form and then transform into Eu^3＋-doped a-Ga2O3 and β-Ga2O3 through annealing the GaOOH：Eu nanoparticles at 600 and 900℃, respectively. PL studies indicate that GaOOH：Eu has the highest intensity at 618 nm. Luminescence quenching is observed at higher Eu3＋concentration in all samples.展开更多
