The complexes of N235 and NA were investigated by Fourier transformation infrared spectrometry to deduce the reaction mechanism. It was found that N235/n-octanol was an efficient extractant for extracting nicotinic acid. The favorable operation conditions were equilibrium aqueous pH 4.2 to 5.5 and initial N235 concentration<0.42 mol·L-1 . The reaction processes included the reaction between neutral N235 and neutral NA and the reaction between protonated N235 and anionic NA. Based on the mass action law and some assumptions, an expression for distribution coefficient D was proposed. The apparent extraction equilibrium constants were calculated by fitting the experimental data and the results were satisfactory.展开更多

The influence of coagulating agents such as formic acid, sulfuric acid and boiling water on the coagulation of NR-g-PMMA latices were investigated. These types of coagulating agent formed compact coagulum and the effect of NR-g-PMMA compounds on cure characteristics, physical properties and appearances were reported.展开更多

The results show that the increasing amount of B203 causes the increase of the contents of [BO3], [BO4] and [SiO4], which deduces the increase of CaB204 and a-SiO2 and the decrease of CaSiO3 correspondingly. No new phase is observed throughout the entire experiments. A bulk density of 2.54 g/cm3, a thermal expansion coefficient value of 11.95× 10-6 ℃-1 (20-500℃), a dielectric constant er value of 6.42 and a dielectric loss tanδ value of 0.000 9 (measured at 9.7 GHz) are obtained for CBS glass ceramics containing 35%-B203 (mass fraction) sintered at 850 ℃ for 15 min.展开更多

To provide some guidelines for setting up cloud-detection schemes, this study compares the MW03 scheme to the Multivariate and Minimum Residual(MMR) scheme for both simulated and real Advanced Infrared Sounder(AIRS) radiances. Results show that there is a high level of consistency between the results from simulated and real AIRS data. As expected, both cloud-detection schemes perform well in finding the cloud-contaminated channels based on the channels' peak levels. The clouddetection results from MW03 are sensitive to the prescribed brightness temperature innovation threshold and brightness temperature gradient threshold. When increasing the brightness temperature innovation threshold for MW03 to roughly eight times the default threshold, the two cloud-detection schemes produce consistent data rejection distributions overall for high channels. MMR generally retains more data for long-wave channels. For both cloud-detection schemes, there is a high level of consistency between the cloud-free pixels and the visible/near-IR(Vis/NIR) cloud mask.展开更多

The synthesis parameters, such as the reaction temperature, the first aging temperature and the second aging temperature, were investigated. The textural properties of γ-Al2O3 were characterized by means of N2 adsorption-desorption isotherms, X-ray powder diffractometry (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and thermogravimetry (TG). The experimental results indicated that AACH and amorphous A1OOH were the precursors of alumina, which were formed via precipitation from solutions after reaction of aluminum sulphate with ammonium hydrogen carbonate. The precursor nanocrystallites grew and re-assembled during the secondary reforming process, which resulted in an increased pore size and pore volume and a decreased bulk density. The as-synthesized γ-Al2O3 materials featured meso/macroporosity, large pore volume (2.175 cm^3/g), high surface area (237.8 m^2/g), and low bulk density (0.284 g/mL).展开更多
Molecular interactions of a representative pyrrolidinium-based ionic liquid 1-butyl-l-methyl-pyrrolidinium bis(triflorosulfonyl)- imide ([BMPyrr][TFSI]) with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and acetonitrile (AN) hav...Molecular interactions of a representative pyrrolidinium-based ionic liquid 1-butyl-l-methyl-pyrrolidinium bis(triflorosulfonyl)- imide ([BMPyrr][TFSI]) with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and acetonitrile (AN) have been analyzed in this work. Attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations are used in the investigation, while excess infrared spectra and two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy are used to explore the data in detail. It has been found that the molecular solvents can interact with TFSI- (mainly with S=O and weakly with S-N-S group). AN interacts feebly with BMPyrr+ as compared with the strong interaction of DMSO. The strength of the interactions depends on the electron donating ability of the solvent. Upon mixing, hydrogen bonds regarding C-Hs in cation and S-N-S in anion are weakened, while that regarding S=O in anion is strengthened. Among the C-Hs which are connected directly with the N of the cation, Cl-H is the main interaction site for both DMSO and AN. This means that Cl-H is the most acidic hydrogen in pyrrolidinium cation.展开更多
