Coalification and coal alteration under mild thermal conditions

Coalification temperatures are often considered to be approximately 100-170 ℃ for bituminous coal and 170-275 ℃ for anthracite. However, our micropetrographic observations, solid state ^27Al magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance measurements, interpretation of δ^13C values for whewellite in pelosiderite concretions from Carboniferous sediments, and assessment of whewellite thermal stability show that coalification temperatures can be significantly lower. Also the temperatures of coal alteration may be substantially lower than is stated. Ordinarily, high- temperature alteration is reported, but microthermometric measurements of fluids temperatures and micropetrographic observations show that the coal alteration can take place at low temperatures. For this reason, coals from the Kladno- Rakovnik Basin, part of Late Paleozoic continental basins of the Czech Republic, were analyzed. Regarding coalification, micropetrographic characterizations of unaltered coals, the presence of thermally unstable Al complexes in the coal organic mass documented using ^27Al MAS NMR method, and proven occurrence of whewellite in pelosiderite concretions suggest a lower coalification temperature, max. -70 ℃. Regarding coal alteration, micropetrographic observations revealed （a） the weaker intensity of fluorescence of liptinite, （b） mylonitic structures and microbreccia with carbonate fluid penetration, and （c） high oxygen content in coals （37-38 wt.%）. These phenomena are typical for thermal and oxidative alteration of coal. As the temperature of carbonate fluids inferred from fluid inclusion analysis was evaluated as -100-113 ℃, the temperature of coal alteration was suggested as -113℃; the alteration was caused by hot hydrothermal fluids.

Effect of Working Temperature on the Resistance Characteristic of a Pleated Stainless Steel Woven Filter

Effect of working temperature on the resistance characteristic including the permeability coefficient and the pressure drop evolution of a pleated stainless steel woven filter with a nominal pore size of 0.5 μm has been studied. The permeability coefficient was obtained based on the pressure drop data and the Darcy＇s law. In three filtration experiments, pure carbon dioxide at 283 K, nitrogen at 85 K and liquid helium at 18 K are adopted, respectively. It is found that the permeability coefficient decreases at the working temperature due to the cold shrink of the filter element at cryogenic temperature. Then, two kinds of feed slurries, mixture of liquid nitrogen and solid carbon dioxide at 85 K, and mixture of liquid helium and solid nitrogen at 18 K, flow into the filter cell. The solid particles are deposited on the filter surface to form a filter cake and the purified liquid flows through the filter. It is found that the pressure drop evolution shows the same trend on these two temperatures, which can be divided into three stages with high filtration efficiency, indicating the feasibility of the filter for cryogenic application. However, variant cake resistances are obtained, which is resulted from the different interactions between solid particles in the feed slurry at lower working temperature.

Metamorphic, deformation, fluids and geological significance of low-temperature retrograde mylonites of Diancangshan metamorphic massif along Ailaoshan-Red River strike-slip fault zone, Yunnan, China

Diancangshan metamorphic massif is one of the four metamorphic massifs developed along the Ailaoshan-Red River strike-slip fault zone, Yunnan, China. It has experienced multi-stage metamorphism and deformation, especially since the late Oligocene it widely suffered high-temperature ductile shear deformation and exhumation of the metamorphic rocks from the deep crust to the shallow surface. Based on the previous research and geological field work, this paper presents a detailed study on deformation and metamorphism, and exhumation of deep metamorphic rocks within the Diancangshan metamorphic massif,especially focusing on the low-temperature overprinted retrogression metamorphism and deformation of mylonitic rocks. With the combinated experimental techniques of optical microscope, electron backscatter diffraction attachmented on field-emission scanning electron microscopy and cathodoluminescence, our contribution reports the microstructure, lattice preferred orientations of the deformed minerals, and the changes of mineral composition phases of the superposition low-temperature retrograde mylonites. All these results indicate that:(1) Diancangshan deep metamorphic rock has experienced early high-temperature leftlateral shear deformation and late extension with rapid exhumation, the low-temperature retrogression metamorphism and deformation overprinted the high-temperature metamorphism, and the high-temperature microstructure and texture are in part or entirely altered by subsequent low-temperature shearing;(2) the superposition of low-temperature deformation-metamorphism occurs at the ductile-brittle transition; and(3) the fluid is quite active during the syn-tectonic shearing overprinted lowtemperature deformation and metamorphism. The dynamic recrystallization and/or fractures to micro-fractures result in the strongly fine-grained of the main minerals, and present strain localization in micro-domians, such as micro-shear zones in the mylonites. It is often accompanied by the decrease of rock strength and finally influences the rheology of the whole rock during further deformation and exhumation of the Diancangshan massif.

Helix-sense-selective radical polymerization of bulky styrenic monomers: chiral induction and liquid crystallinity

Eight chiral vinylterphenyl monomers, （＋）-2,5-bis{4＇-[（S）-1＂-methylpropyloxy]phenyl}styrene （Ia）, （＋）-2,5-bis{4＇-[（S）-2＂- methylbutyloxy]phenyl}styrene （Ib）, （＋）-2,5-bis{4＇-[（S）-3＂-methylpentyloxy]phenyl}styrene （Ic）, （＋）-2,5-bis{4＇-[（S）-4＂- methylhexyloxy]phenyl}styrene （Id）, （-）-2,5-bis{4＇-[（R）-1＂-methylpropyloxy]phenyl}styrene （le）, （＋）-2-/4＇-[（S）-l＂-methyl- propyloxy]phenyl}-5-{4＇-[（R）-1＂-methylpropyloxy]phenyl}styrene （Ⅱa）, （-）-2-{4＇-[（R）-1＂-methylpropyloxy]phenyl}-5-{4＇- [（S）- 1 ＂-methylpropyloxy]phenyl } styrene （lib）, and （＋）-2- { 4＇-[（S）-2＂-methylbutyloxy]phenyl }-5- { 4＇-[（S）- 1＂-methylpropyl- oxy]phenyl}styrene （Ⅲ）, were synthesized and radically polymerized. These molecules were designed to further understand long-range chirality transfer in radical polymerization and to possibly tune the chiroptical properties of the polymers by varying the spatial configuration, position, and various combination of the stereogenic centers at the ends ofp-terphenyl pendants. The resultant polymers adopted helical conformations with a predominant screw sense. When the stereogenic centers ran away from the terphenyl group as in Ⅰb-d, the corresponding polymers changed the direction of optical rotation in an alternative way and showed no obvious stereomutation upon annealing in tetrahydrofuran. The two stereogenic centers of Ⅱa, Ⅱb, and Ⅲ acted concertedly in chiral induction, whereas those of la and Ie played a counteractive role. The five polymers derived from Ⅰa, Ⅰe, Ⅱa, Ⅱb, and Ⅲ underwent stereomutation when annealed in tetrahydrofuran. The polymers PIa-e had good thermal stability and high glass transition temperatures （Tgs）. They generated liquid crystalline phases at above Tgs that could be kept upon cooling, with the exception of Pie. This result was consistent with the extended helical structures.

Excess heat capacity in glass-forming liquid systems containing molecules

Excess heat capacities at glass transition temperature in two types of glass-forming systems of [xNaNO3(1x)KNO3]60·[Ca(NO3)2]40(0x1) and Ca(NO3)2yH2O(4y13) are studied.In the former system,with the replacement of K + cation with Na + cation,the excess heat capacity is around 65.1 J mol-1·K-1,while the excess increases by 38.9 J mol-1·K-1 upon one molar H2O content in latter system.A quantitative description to the excess heat capacity is built up with the thermal effects of atomic and molecular translational motion in liquids.The results might offer a further understanding to the glass transition.

A fluid-guided printing strategy for patterning high refractive index photonic microarrays

High refractive index(HRI,n>1.8)photonic structures offer strong light confinement and refractive efficiencies,cover the entire visible spectrum and can be tuned by designing geometric arrayed features.However,its practical applications are still hindered by the applicability and material limitation of lithography-based micro/nano fabrication approaches.Herein,we demonstrate a fluid-guided printing process for preparing HRI selenium microarrays.The microstructured flexible template is replicated from the diced silicon wafer without any lithography-based methods.When heated above the glass transition temperature,the flow characteristics of selenium endows the structure downsizing and orientation patterning between the target substrate and the template.Near 10 times narrowing selenium microarrays(1.9μm width)are patterned from the non-lithography template(18μm width).HRI selenium microarrays offer high refractive efficiencies and strong optical confinement abilities,which achieve angledependent structurally coloration and polarization.Meanwhile,the color difference can be recognized under the one degree distinction of the angle between incident and refracted light.This printing platform will facilitate HRI optical metasurfaces in a variety of applications,ranging from photonic sensor,polarization modulation to light manipulation.
