Applications of carbonic acid solution for developing conversion coatings on Mg alloy

Works on exploring an environmentally clean method for producing an Mg,Al-hydrotalcite(Mg6Al2(OH) 16CO3·4H2O) layer and/or calcium carbonate(CaCO3) layer on Mg alloy in a carbonic acid solution system(aqueous HCO3-/CO3 2-or Ca 2+ /HCO3-) at 50℃ were reviewed.Conversion treatment for the Mg,Al-hydrotalcite conversion coating was as follows.Mg alloy was treated first in acidic HCO3-/CO3 2-aqueous for precursor layer formation on Mg alloy surface and then in alkaline HCO3-/CO3 2-aqueous to form a crystallized Mg,Al-hydrotalcite coating.Duration of an Mg,Al-hydrotalcite coating on Mg alloy surface was reduced from 12 h to 4 h by the conversion treatment.On the other hand,for reducing the formation time of CaCO3 coating on Mg alloy,the aqueous Ca 2+ /HCO3-with a saturated Ca 2+ content was employed for developing a CaCO3 coating on Mg alloy.A dense CaCO3 coating could yield on Mg alloy surface in 2 h.Corrosion rate(corrosion current density,Jcorr) of the Mg,Al-hydrotalcite-coated sample and CaCO3-coated AZ91D sample was 7-10μA/cm 2,roughly two orders less than the Jcorr of the as-diecast sample(about 200μA/cm 2) . No corrosion spot on the Mg,Al-hydrotalcite-coated sample and CaCO3-coated sample was observed after 72 h and 192 h salt spray test,respectively.

Pore-scale study based on lattice Boltzmann method of density driven natural convection during CO_2 injection project

Saline aquifers are chosen for geological storage of greenhouse gas CO_2 because of their storage potential.In almost all cases of practical interest,CO_2 is present on top of the liquid and CO_2 dissolution leads to a small increase in the density of the aqueous phase.This situation results in the creation of negative buoyancy force for downward density-driven natural convection and consequently enhances CO_2 sequestration.In order to study CO_2 injection at pore-level,an isothermal Lattice Boltzmann Model(LBM) with two distribution functions is adopted to simulate density-driven natural convection in porous media with irregular geometry obtained by image treatment.The present analysis showed that after the onset of natural convection instability,the brine with a high CO_2 concentration infringed into the underlying unaffected brine,in favor of the migration of CO_2 into the pore structure.With low Rayleigh numbers,the instantaneous mass flux and total dissolved CO_2 mass are very close to that derived from penetration theory(diffusion only),but the fluxes are significantly enhanced with high Ra number.The simulated results show that as the time increases,some chaotic and recirculation zones in the flow appear obviously,which promotes the renewal of interfacial liquid,and hence enhances dissolution of CO_2 into brine.This study is focused on the scale of a few pores,but shows implications in enhanced oil/gas recovery with CO_2 sequestration in aquifers.

Measurement of thermal conductivity,viscosity and density of ionic liquid [EMIM][DEP]-based nanofluids

This article studied experimentally the effect of multi-wall carbon nanotubes （MWCNTs） on the thermo physical properties of ionic liquid-based nanofluids. The nanofluids were composed of ionic liquid, 1-ethyl-3- methylimidazolium diethylphosphate [EMIM][DEP], or its aqueous solution[EMIM][DEP]（1） ＋ H20（2） and MWCNTs without any surfactants. The thermal conductivity, viscosity and density of the nanofluids were mea- sured experimentally. The effects of the mass fraction of MWCNTs, temperature and the mole fraction of water on the thermo physical properties of nanofluids were studied. Results show that the thermal conductivity of nanofluids increases within the range of 1.3%-9.7% compared to their base liquids, and have a well linear depen- dence on temperature. The viscosity and density of the nanofluids exhibit a remarkable increase compared with those of the base liquids. Finally, the correlation of the effective thermal conductivity and viscosity of the nanofluids was made using the models in the literatures.

Hierarchical CuCo_2O_4@nickel-cobalt hydroxides core/shell nanoarchitectures for high-performance hybrid supercapacitors

Ni0.5Co0.5（OH）2 nanosheets coated CuCo2O4 nanoneedles arrays were successfully designed and synthe- sized on carbon fabric. The core/shell nanoarchitectures directly served as the binder-free electrode with a superior capacity of 295.6 mAh g-1 at 1 Ag-1, which still maintained 220 mAh g-1 even at the high current density of 40 A g-l, manifesting their enormous potential in hybrid supercapacitor devices. The asassembled CuCo2O4@Ni0.5Co0.5（OH）2]]AC hybrid supercapacitor device exhibited favorable properties with the specific capacitance as high as 90 F g 1 at 1 A g-1 and the high energy density of 32 Wh kg 1 at the power density of 800 Wkg-1. Furthermore, the as-assembled device also delivered excellent cycling performance （retaining 91.9% of the initial capacitance after 12,000 cycles at 8 A g 1） and robust mechanical stability and flexibility, implying the huge potential of present hierarchical electrodes in energy storage devices.

Electrical analysis of single-walled carbon nanotube as gigahertz on-chip interconnects

The single-walled carbon nanotube （SWCNT） is a promising nanostructure in the design of future high- frequency system-on-chip, especially in network-on-chip, where the quality of communication between intellectual property （IP） modules is a major concern. Shrinking dimensions of circuits and systems have restricted the use of high-frequency signal characteristics for frequencies up to 1000 GHz. Four key electrical parameters, impedance, propagation constant, current density, and signal delay time, which are crucial in the design of a high-quality interconnect, are derived for different structural configurations of SWCNT. Each of these parameters exhibits strong dependence on the frequency range over which the interconnect is designed to operate, as well as on the configuration of SWCNT. The novelty of the proposed model for solving next-generation high-speed integrated circuit （IC） interconnect challenges is illustrated, compared with existing theoretical and experimental results in the literature.
