Two 18650 cells with and without VC additive were investigated by galvanostatic cycling, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray analysis and Raman spectroscopy. The results show that in the presence of VC additive, dissolution of Fe from LiFePO4 material is greatly depressed and stability of graphite structure is improved; the additive can not only reduce reaction of electrolyte on surface of LiFePO4 electrode but also suppress reduction of solvent and thickening of the solid electrolyte interface (SEI) layer on graphite surface. Electrolyte with VC is considered to be a good candidate for improving cycling performance of the LiFePOa/graphite cell at elevated temperature.展开更多

All these data were regressed by 2h, NRTL, Wilson, and the modified Wilson models. For the study of six, 2h, NRTL, and the modified Wilson models were found to provide an accurate mathematical representation of the experimental results, with overall average absolute relative deviations between measured and calculated values as 1.74%, 2.06%, and 3.06%, respectively. The results showed that the λh model is the most suitable for description of the solid-liquid equilibrium containing adipic acid.展开更多

The experimental results indicate that the effects of particle size and sulfuric acid concentration on the nickel extraction are remarkable; the effect of reaction temperature is mild; while the effect of stirring speed in the range of 400-1 200 r/min is negligible. Decreasing particle size or increasing sulfuric acid concentration and reaction temperature, the nickel extraction efficiency is improved. 93.5% of nickel in residue is extracted under suitable leaching conditions, including particle size (0.074-0.100) mm, sulfuric acid concentration 30% (mass fraction), temperature 80 ~C, reaction time 180 min, mass ratio of liquid to solid 10 and stirring speed 800 r/min. The leaching kinetics analyses shows that the reaction rate of leaching process is controlled by diffusion through the product layer, and the calculated activation energy of 15.8 kJ/mol is characteristic for a diffusion controlled process.展开更多

Calcite, mixture of calcite and fluorite, and nickel ore were used in the flotation. And the depression mechanism was studied by the determination of contact angle, zeta potential, adsorptive capacity of collector, and IR analysis as well. It is found that 0.1 mmol/L of phenoxyl acetic acid derived from pyrogallol or gallic acid exhibits strong depressing ability on calcite in almost zero yields at pH value of 9.8, and calcite can be depressed in the flotation of calcite/fluorite mixture for approximate 87% yield of fluorite. The flotation result of practical nickel ore containing serpentine indicates that these two depressants may also show better depression performance to serpentine than traditional depressants such as sodium fluosilicate and carboxylmethyl cellulose. Analysis for the depression mechanism reveals that there exists strong chemical interaction between the depressants and minerals.展开更多

The characterized acid amount of catalyst increased with the basicity of adsorbates. With increase of the activation temperature of catalyst, the acid amount characterized by NHa-TPD decreased, however, it increased when characterized by TPD using three other adsorbates. The desorption kinetics of TPD process and the deactivation kinetics of catalyst were investigated. The acidity and catalytic per- formance of catalyst was also correlated. The results showed that the acid amount and strength are well correlated with the activity and stability using NH3 as adsorbate, respectively, which indicated NH3 was a better basic adsorbate. It was also found that the catalyst with higher acid amount and lower acid strength on the surface exhibited the better catalytic performance and stability.展开更多

In this study, polyaniline adsorbent was synthesized by chemical oxidation to remove tannic acid in aqueous solutions. The adsorption amount of tannic acid varied greatly with pH of solution and strong adsorption was at pH 5.8-6.7. Coexisting cations, such as Na+, K+, and Ca2+, can enhance the adsorption of tannic acid on poly- aniline, which may be contributed to the electrostatic interaction between tannic acid and polyaniline. The adsorp- tion process could be well described by Langmuir model and the maximum adsorption capacity was 117.65 rag.g〈 at 35℃and pH 6.0. The thermodynamic parameters calculated from the adsorption isotherms indicate that the ad- sorption of tannic acid is spontaneous and endothermic process. The polyaniline saturated with tannic acid can be desorbed in alkaline solution and regenerated adsorbent can be used repeatedly with high adsorption capacity, which implies that polyaniline adsorbents have a great potential in water purification for the removal of tannic acid.展开更多

The experiments were performed in various temperatures (433-473 K) and initial glucose concentrations (0.056-0.168 mol·L-1) with extremely low sulfuric acid as the catalyst. The results show that higher temperature can improve the conversion of glucose to ethyl levulinate, with higher yield of ethyl levulinate (44.79%, by mole) obtained at 473 K for 210 min. The kinetics follows a simplified first-order kinetic model. For the main and side reactions, the values of activation energy are 122.64 and 70.97 kJ·mo1-1, and the reaction orders are 0.985 and 0.998, respectively.展开更多
