Compared to the corresponding soils, Mn, Ba, Cd, Co and Pb had strong accumulation, Ni had moderate accumulation, while Ca, Cu, Fe, Na, P, Sr and Zn accumulated to a minor degree in the iron-manganese nodules. In contrast, Si, Al, K, Mg and Ti were reduced in the iron-manganese nodules. The contents of Ba, Cd, Co, Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn were positively and significantly correlated with that of MnO2 in the iron-manganese nodules, while the contents of Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn were positively and significantly correlated with that of Fe2O3 in soils. Based on a principle component analysis, the elements of iron-manganese nodules were divided into four groups: 1) Mn, Ba, Cd, Co, Cu, Li, Ni, Pb and Zn that were associated with Mn oxides, 2) Fe, Cr and P that were associated with Fe oxides, 3) Si, K, and Mg that were included in the elemental composition of phyllosilicate, and 4) Ca, Na, Al and Ti that existed in todorokite, birnessite, lithiophorite and phyllosilicate. It was suggested that accumulation, mineralization and specific adsorption were involved in the formation processes of soil iron-manganese nodules.展开更多

They are investigated comprehensively in terms of crystal structure, morphology, composition, specific surface area, photoelectrochemical properties, photodegradation performance, etc. Compared with binary TiO2/g-C3N4 and single-component photocatalysts, ternary heterojunction photocatalysts show the best photodegradation performance for RhB under stimulated sunlight. This can be attributed to the enlarged specific surface area (111.41 m2/g), the formation of Z-scheme heterojunction, and the high separation migration efficiency of photoexcited charge carriers. A potential Z-scheme mechanism for ternary heterojunction photocatalysts is proposed to elucidate the remarkably ameliorated photocatalytic performance based on active species trapping experiments, PL detection test of hydroxyl radicals, and photoelectrochemical properties.展开更多

We report a broad study of structural and electronic properties of boron antimonide (BSb), aluminium antimonide (AlSb), gallium antimonide (GaSb) and indium antimonide (InSb) in zineblende phase based on density functional theory (DFT). Our calculations are based on Full-PotentiM Lineaxized Augmented Plane wave plus local orbitals (FP- L(APWq-lo)) method. Different forms of exchange-correlation energy functional and corresponding potential are employed for structural and electronic properties. Our computed results for lattice parameters, bulk moduli, their pressure derivatives, and cohesive energy are consistent with the available experimental data. Boron antimonide is found to be the hardest compound of this group. For band structure calculations, in addition to LDA and GGA, we used GGA-EV, an approximation employed by Engel and Vosko. The band gap results with GGA-EV are of significant improvement over the earlier work.展开更多

The process was named as simultaneous cell disruption and aqueous two-phase extraction (SDATE). Advantages, such as high cell disruption efficiency, biochemical activities preservation of proteins, cell debris elimination, and prelimiary purification of the target protein were being claimed. When this technique was employed for isolating recombinant Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) from E. coli, overall protein concentration and TNF activity were found to have been increased. More than 95% of TNF was partitioned into the top phase and all cell debris were in the bottom phase. The partition coefficient was greater than 3 and the TNF purification factor was greater than 6. It is shown that less separation steps were being utilized in the new technique, meaning a reduction in separation time and less process extractors required.展开更多

Compared to the conventional HZSM-5 zeolite, the SiO2-containing zeolites considerably increased the selectivity and yield of p-xylene due to the reduction of external surface acidity and the narrowing of pore entrance. The influences of the methanol additive, reaction temperature, and types of polyols on the selectivity and yield of p-xylene were investigated in detail. Catalytic cracking of polyols with methanol significantly enhanced the production of p-xylene by the alkylation of toluene with methanol. The highest p-xylene yield of 10.9 C-mol% with a p-xylene/xylenes ratio of 91.1% was obtained over the 15wt%SiO2/HZSM-5 catalyst. The reaction pathway for the formation of p-xylene was addressed according to the study of the key reactions and the characterization of catalysts.展开更多

The Sn to Ca mass ratio up to 2.5 contributes to the formation of Mg2Ca phase at the grain boundaries and CaMgSn in the matrix, while a ratio of 3 gives only CaMgSn phase mostly in the matrix. While the compressive strength decreases with the increase in temperature, for Sn/Ca up to 2.5, a plateau occurs in 100-175 °C, which is attributed to the strengthening by Mg2Ca. However, for ratio of 3, the strength is lower and decreases more gradually. Mg-3Sn-2Ca (TX32) has the highest strength and the addition of 0.4%Al increases its strength but simultaneous addition of Si lowers the strength. Likewise, the addition of Zn improves its strength but simultaneous addition of Al slightly decreases the strength. The results are correlated with the types of intermetallic phases that form in various alloys.展开更多

Each fraction of liquefied oil contains some nitrogen compounds. Using the acid extraction method and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC-MS), the basic nitrogen compounds have been separated and identified. Compared with the nitrogen content of the liquefied oil before and after separation, the basic nitrogen compounds account for more than half of all nitrogen compounds. The basic nitrogen compounds in the light liquefied oil are easily separated, and contain more types of basic nitrogen compounds. The results also show that there are many basic nitrogen compounds in liquefied oil, such as pyrrole, aniline, pyridine, quinoline and so on. However, there are fewer other types of basic nitrogen compounds.展开更多

Three types of palm diacylglycerol olein (PDAGOL) at different degree of unsaturation (PDAGOL1V56, PDAGOLIV62 and PDAGOLIV64) were used as main raw materials blended with palm stearin (PS). The blending compositions ranged from 30% to 70% of PDAGOLIV56/PS, PDAGOLIV62/PS and PDAGOLIV64/PS, respectively. The physicochemical properties of all binary blend systems were characterized for fatty acid composition (FAC), slip melting point (SMP) and solid fat content (SFC). The selected bakery shortening formulations were further characterised for polymorphic form of fat crystal and thermal behavior, using X-ray diffractometer (XRD) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Bakery shortening enriched with diacylglycerol that were produced from 40DS56 (40% PDAGOLIV56/60% PS), 40DS62 (40% PDAGOL1V62/60% PS) and 40DS64 (40% PDAGOLIV64/60% PS) had 45%-50% unsaturated fatty acid and crystallized in β + β polymorphs; thus they were suitable for shortening system. Based on product's baking performance, it could be found that all Madeira cakes prepared from bakery shortening enriched with diacylglycerol had higher specific cake volume as compared to commercial shortening (CS). In customer acceptance test, Madeira cake made from 40DS56 shortening scored the highest rating for all sensory attributes, including overall customer acceptability. It had given an indication that 40DS56 shortening formulation was the most suitable fat blends to be used as bakery shortening.展开更多

The investigations were fulfilled by using of geographical and stasionar methods. It is revealed that 333.6 thous, ha of the soils of the lowland of Kur-Araz have been exposed to erosion. 97.4 thousand ha of them have been exposed to rainstorm erosion, 127.1 thous, have been exposed to irrigative and 122.1 thous, ha to wind erosion. The most dangerous of them are considered irrigative erosion. Under the influence of erosion process in deposited over the length of furrow, deposits the changes happened in maintenance of humus and nutritions elements. In dependence on slope and water expenditure on 1 ha 2.23-14.86 t of soil are leached. As a result of out wash from 1 ha of soil 55.88-304.59 kg of humus, 4.06-20.80 kg of nitrogen, 4.57-26.55 of phosphorus and 57.40-372.99 of potassium are lost. The soil is exposed to degradation and as a result a process of desertification begins. On the basis of the quantitative an intensity of soil outwash the possible losses of dry matter including humus and main elements of nutrition of plants as a result of erosion, their deposit with the water way, are calculated, too.展开更多

The results show that the concentrations of elements are closely related to the relative proportions of carbonates and terrigenous detritus (varying from 2/3 to 1/9 based on petrographic study). The ratios between some immobile elements (e.g. La,Th,Zr and Sc) are constant and then can be used as tracers for the discrimination of provenance and tectonic setting of terrigenous detritus. The results indicate that the terrigenous detritus mainly came from the felsic volcanics related to continental arc,with minor contribution from the old basement. Combined with recent research progresses,these mixosedimentites imply that the Neoproterozoic sedimentation in northern Anhui was probably taken place in a back arc basin during the convergence of Rodinia super continent between 1.0 and 0.8 Ga.展开更多

In the model, the unified strength criterion (Yu, 1991) is adopted as the failure criterion. The distributions of the radial stress and velocity are analyzed. According to the Newton's second law, a series results of the final penetration depth and the impedance load are obtained to different parameter b, when a rigid projectile normally impacts and penetrates a semi-infinite geo-material target with an impact velocity of 300-1200 m/s. By comparing with the test data available, it appears that the method can be used in analyzing the final depth and the impedance load of a rigid projectile penetrating into a semi-infinite target with different impact velocities.展开更多

The results show that the amount of REEs (185.56-729.46 ×10-6) is high. The ratios of w(LREE)/w(HREE) (6.84- 13.86) and W(La)N/w(Yb)N (1.01-3.02) show clear differentiation of LREEs and HREEs. ZREE has a significantly or critically positive correlation with lithophile elements Th, Nb, Ta, Ti, Ca, Sc, Cs, Zr, Hf, Sr, Be and chaicophile element Zn, a critically negative correlation with siderophile element Fe and a slightly positive correlation with illite, illite smectite mixed layers and siderite. REEs originate mainly from terrigenous minerals, in an inorganic phase, Source rocks of our samples consist of Emeishan basalt and a small part of sedimentary rocks, as suggested by the distribution patterns of REEs and w(∑REE)- w(La)/w(Yb) diagram. Moreover, abnormal surfaces near the sequence boundaries (SB2, SB3, SB4) are related wiLth the boundaries, identified by geochemical characteristics of the REEs, such as ∑REE. w(LREE)/w(HREE), Eu/Eu* and Ceanom.展开更多

Degradation of the surface layers of wood was caused by chemical reactions of the basic substances of wood mass with compounds contained in antifire coatings. Fire retardants containing corrosive substances were often and repeatedly used in the Czech Republic on many wooden building constructions. This process of chemical corrosion is in practise called as "surface defibering of wood". This contribution presents standard and special experimental methods used for measuring the selected mechanical characteristics (compression strength, tension strength, bending strength, hardness and impact resistance) in the damaged surface layer of wooden construction elements. The material for experimental measuring was a construction element removed from a historical roof (ca 150 years old). Mechanical characteristics of the surface layer of the defibered element were compared with the values measured in the deeper subsurface layer of non-damaged wood. The results of the experiments proved loss of cohesive strength and decrease of mechanical characteristics of wood only in a thin surface layer.展开更多

With the enhancement of the π-conjugated system, their absorption and emission bands both gradually red shift, and their two-photon properties are also improved. Meanwhile, their fluorescence dynamic traces are analyzed with continuous rate distribution model, exhibiting that their decay rates gradually accelerate and the rate distribution width become narrower. The quantum chemical calculation offers their molecular structures and transition mechanism, showing that the enhancement of π-conjugated system should be responsible for tile improvement of two-photon properties.展开更多

Three distinct fluid inclusion types have been identified in the gold-bearing quartz sulphide veins of the deposit: (1) type I: vapour-liquid two-phase (VH2O-LH2O ), (2) type II : three-phase CO2 ( VCO2 - LH2O - LCO2 ) and (3) type III: vapour-rich (LCO2 - VCO2 ) inclusions. Six analysis of individual fluid inclusion indicate the fluid inclusions comprise mainly of H2O and CO2. Forma- tion P-T conditions recorded by fluid inclusions in quartz crystals correspond to 180℃-380℃ and up to 130 MPa, as indicated by high-density CO2 bubbles (up to 0. 98 g/cm3 ) observed in some inclusions. The esti- mated crystallization pressures correspond to approximately 4-10 km of overburden, assuming a lithostatic load. The salinity ranges from 0 to 22 wt%. The deposit holds at 0.2-5 g/t Au and contains low-moderate salinity.展开更多

文摘A series of Z-scheme TiO2/g-C3N4/RGO ternary heterojunction photocatalysts are successfully constructed via a direct electrospinning technique coupled with an annealing process for the first time. They are investigated comprehensively in terms of crystal structure, morphology, composition, specific surface area, photoelectrochemical properties, photodegradation performance, etc. Compared with binary TiO2/g-C3N4 and single-component photocatalysts, ternary heterojunction photocatalysts show the best photodegradation performance for RhB under stimulated sunlight. This can be attributed to the enlarged specific surface area (111.41 m2/g), the formation of Z-scheme heterojunction, and the high separation migration efficiency of photoexcited charge carriers. A potential Z-scheme mechanism for ternary heterojunction photocatalysts is proposed to elucidate the remarkably ameliorated photocatalytic performance based on active species trapping experiments, PL detection test of hydroxyl radicals, and photoelectrochemical properties.

文摘The effect of Sn, Ca, Al, Si and Zn addition on the compressive strength of cast Mg-Sn-Ca (TX) alloys was studied in the temperature range of 25-250 °C and correlated with the microstructure. The Sn to Ca mass ratio up to 2.5 contributes to the formation of Mg2Ca phase at the grain boundaries and CaMgSn in the matrix, while a ratio of 3 gives only CaMgSn phase mostly in the matrix. While the compressive strength decreases with the increase in temperature, for Sn/Ca up to 2.5, a plateau occurs in 100-175 °C, which is attributed to the strengthening by Mg2Ca. However, for ratio of 3, the strength is lower and decreases more gradually. Mg-3Sn-2Ca (TX32) has the highest strength and the addition of 0.4%Al increases its strength but simultaneous addition of Si lowers the strength. Likewise, the addition of Zn improves its strength but simultaneous addition of Al slightly decreases the strength. The results are correlated with the types of intermetallic phases that form in various alloys.

However, there are fewer other types of basic nitrogen compounds.
文摘The purpose of this study was to investigate the suitability of palm diacylglycerol (PDAG)-enriched formulations for bakery shortening. Three types of palm diacylglycerol olein (PDAGOL) at different degree of unsaturation (PDAGOL1V56, PDAGOLIV62 and PDAGOLIV64) were used as main raw materials blended with palm stearin (PS). The blending compositions ranged from 30% to 70% of PDAGOLIV56/PS, PDAGOLIV62/PS and PDAGOLIV64/PS, respectively. The physicochemical properties of all binary blend systems were characterized for fatty acid composition (FAC), slip melting point (SMP) and solid fat content (SFC). The selected bakery shortening formulations were further characterised for polymorphic form of fat crystal and thermal behavior, using X-ray diffractometer (XRD) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Bakery shortening enriched with diacylglycerol that were produced from 40DS56 (40% PDAGOLIV56/60% PS), 40DS62 (40% PDAGOL1V62/60% PS) and 40DS64 (40% PDAGOLIV64/60% PS) had 45%-50% unsaturated fatty acid and crystallized in β + β polymorphs; thus they were suitable for shortening system. Based on product's baking performance, it could be found that all Madeira cakes prepared from bakery shortening enriched with diacylglycerol had higher specific cake volume as compared to commercial shortening (CS). In customer acceptance test, Madeira cake made from 40DS56 shortening scored the highest rating for all sensory attributes, including overall customer acceptability. It had given an indication that 40DS56 shortening formulation was the most suitable fat blends to be used as bakery shortening.

文摘The research works were carried out for determination of the washout, types, sorts and level of the development reasons of degradation with the purpose of preparation of the measures of fight against degradation in the soils in 2005-2009 in the lowland of Kur-Araz. The investigations were fulfilled by using of geographical and stasionar methods. It is revealed that 333.6 thous, ha of the soils of the lowland of Kur-Araz have been exposed to erosion. 97.4 thousand ha of them have been exposed to rainstorm erosion, 127.1 thous, have been exposed to irrigative and 122.1 thous, ha to wind erosion. The most dangerous of them are considered irrigative erosion. Under the influence of erosion process in deposited over the length of furrow, deposits the changes happened in maintenance of humus and nutritions elements. In dependence on slope and water expenditure on 1 ha 2.23-14.86 t of soil are leached. As a result of out wash from 1 ha of soil 55.88-304.59 kg of humus, 4.06-20.80 kg of nitrogen, 4.57-26.55 of phosphorus and 57.40-372.99 of potassium are lost. The soil is exposed to degradation and as a result a process of desertification begins. On the basis of the quantitative an intensity of soil outwash the possible losses of dry matter including humus and main elements of nutrition of plants as a result of erosion, their deposit with the water way, are calculated, too.

文摘Major oxides,as well as trace elements (including rare earth elements) compositions have been analyzed for the mixosedimentites from Neoproterozoic Jiayuan Formation in northern Anhui,China. The results show that the concentrations of elements are closely related to the relative proportions of carbonates and terrigenous detritus (varying from 2/3 to 1/9 based on petrographic study). The ratios between some immobile elements (e.g. La,Th,Zr and Sc) are constant and then can be used as tracers for the discrimination of provenance and tectonic setting of terrigenous detritus. The results indicate that the terrigenous detritus mainly came from the felsic volcanics related to continental arc,with minor contribution from the old basement. Combined with recent research progresses,these mixosedimentites imply that the Neoproterozoic sedimentation in northern Anhui was probably taken place in a back arc basin during the convergence of Rodinia super continent between 1.0 and 0.8 Ga.
文摘Based on the cylindrical cavity expansion theory, a plastic-damage-elastic model is proposed for the penetration problem of geo-material. In the model, the unified strength criterion (Yu, 1991) is adopted as the failure criterion. The distributions of the radial stress and velocity are analyzed. According to the Newton's second law, a series results of the final penetration depth and the impedance load are obtained to different parameter b, when a rigid projectile normally impacts and penetrates a semi-infinite geo-material target with an impact velocity of 300-1200 m/s. By comparing with the test data available, it appears that the method can be used in analyzing the final depth and the impedance load of a rigid projectile penetrating into a semi-infinite target with different impact velocities.

文摘In order to discuss the geochemical characteristic of REEs (rare earth elements) and their geological application, we measured the contents of rare earth elements, trace elements and minerals of 29 Lopingian (Late Permian) mudstone samples in Panxian county, carrying out ICP-MS and XRD analysis. The results show that the amount of REEs (185.56-729.46 ×10-6) is high. The ratios of w(LREE)/w(HREE) (6.84- 13.86) and W(La)N/w(Yb)N (1.01-3.02) show clear differentiation of LREEs and HREEs. ZREE has a significantly or critically positive correlation with lithophile elements Th, Nb, Ta, Ti, Ca, Sc, Cs, Zr, Hf, Sr, Be and chaicophile element Zn, a critically negative correlation with siderophile element Fe and a slightly positive correlation with illite, illite smectite mixed layers and siderite. REEs originate mainly from terrigenous minerals, in an inorganic phase, Source rocks of our samples consist of Emeishan basalt and a small part of sedimentary rocks, as suggested by the distribution patterns of REEs and w(∑REE)- w(La)/w(Yb) diagram. Moreover, abnormal surfaces near the sequence boundaries (SB2, SB3, SB4) are related wiLth the boundaries, identified by geochemical characteristics of the REEs, such as ∑REE. w(LREE)/w(HREE), Eu/Eu* and Ceanom.
文摘The aim of this research was to find out whether the effect of chemical corrosion changes mechanical characteristics of surface layers of wooden construction elements. Degradation of the surface layers of wood was caused by chemical reactions of the basic substances of wood mass with compounds contained in antifire coatings. Fire retardants containing corrosive substances were often and repeatedly used in the Czech Republic on many wooden building constructions. This process of chemical corrosion is in practise called as "surface defibering of wood". This contribution presents standard and special experimental methods used for measuring the selected mechanical characteristics (compression strength, tension strength, bending strength, hardness and impact resistance) in the damaged surface layer of wooden construction elements. The material for experimental measuring was a construction element removed from a historical roof (ca 150 years old). Mechanical characteristics of the surface layer of the defibered element were compared with the values measured in the deeper subsurface layer of non-damaged wood. The results of the experiments proved loss of cohesive strength and decrease of mechanical characteristics of wood only in a thin surface layer.

文摘The optical properties of three linear conjugated oligomers (F-P, F-P-F, and P-F-P-F-P), where phenothiazine (P) and fluorene (F) groups arrange alternately, are investigated. With the enhancement of the π-conjugated system, their absorption and emission bands both gradually red shift, and their two-photon properties are also improved. Meanwhile, their fluorescence dynamic traces are analyzed with continuous rate distribution model, exhibiting that their decay rates gradually accelerate and the rate distribution width become narrower. The quantum chemical calculation offers their molecular structures and transition mechanism, showing that the enhancement of π-conjugated system should be responsible for tile improvement of two-photon properties.
文摘The Wadi Sharis orogenic gold deposit in northwestern Yemen is related to the fault and shear zones vein at medium depth in the crust in the Neoprotcrozoic meta-sedimentary and meta-volcanosedimentary succes- sion of greenschist to amphibolite facies metamorphism. Three distinct fluid inclusion types have been identified in the gold-bearing quartz sulphide veins of the deposit: (1) type I: vapour-liquid two-phase (VH2O-LH2O ), (2) type II : three-phase CO2 ( VCO2 - LH2O - LCO2 ) and (3) type III: vapour-rich (LCO2 - VCO2 ) inclusions. Six analysis of individual fluid inclusion indicate the fluid inclusions comprise mainly of H2O and CO2. Forma- tion P-T conditions recorded by fluid inclusions in quartz crystals correspond to 180℃-380℃ and up to 130 MPa, as indicated by high-density CO2 bubbles (up to 0. 98 g/cm3 ) observed in some inclusions. The esti- mated crystallization pressures correspond to approximately 4-10 km of overburden, assuming a lithostatic load. The salinity ranges from 0 to 22 wt%. The deposit holds at 0.2-5 g/t Au and contains low-moderate salinity.
