罗望子多糖对冰重结晶、生长习性和量热行为的影响

为系统考察罗望子多糖对冰晶生长的抑制效应,采用“蔗糖三明治”冰重结晶试验、Lifshitz-Slyozov-Wagner(LSW)理论模型、动态冰晶修饰试验和差示扫描量热法研究该多糖溶液的冰重结晶动力学、冰晶生长习性和量热行为。结果表明,罗望子多糖在溶液中呈浓度依赖性构象转变,该多糖具有显著的冰重结晶抑制活性,其中添加0.25%(质量分数)的多糖可以使冰晶生长速率降低近10倍。罗望子多糖具有较弱的冰晶形貌修饰活性,暗示其与冰晶表面可能具有较弱的相互作用。此外,罗望子多糖具有一定的冰点抑制活性而对融点没有显著影响。值得注意的是,当多糖浓度超过一定值时,冰重结晶抑制活性和冰点抑制活性略有降低,推测罗望子多糖基于“界面效应”抑制冰晶生长。研究结果表明罗望子多糖具有作为新型天然冷冻食品抑冰剂的潜力,也为理解天然多糖的防冻机理提供了新的思路。

Hot deformation behavior of spray forming LSHR alloy using constitutive equation and processing map

Flow behaviors of spray forming low solvus high refractory (LSHR) alloy were investigated using hot compression tests performed on a Gleeble?3500 thermal mechanical simulator at temperatures of 1020?1150 °C and strain rates of 0.0003?1.0 s?1. The constitutive equation was established, power dissipation (η) maps and hot processing maps were plotted. The microstructure evolution and dislocation distribution of domains with different values of η in power dissipation maps were also observed. The results show that the flow stress increases with decreasing temperature and increasing strain rate. The activation energy of the spray forming LSHR alloy is 1243.86 kJ/mol. When the value of η is 0.36 at the strain of 0.5, the domain in the processing map shows characteristics of typical dynamic recrystallization (DRX) and low dislocation density. According to the microstructure evolution and processing maps, the optimum processing condition for good hot workability of spray forming LSHR alloy can be summed up as:temperature range 1110?1150 °C; strain rate range 0.01?0.3 s?1.

Strength and thermal behavior of low weight foam geopolymer using circulating fluidized bed combustion fly ash

A comparative study of the influence of elevated temperature on foam geopolymer using circulating fluidized bed combustion fly ash（CFA） was reported. Foam geopoymers were prepared with different amounts of foam agent and different Si O2/Al2O3 molar ratios of 3.1, 3.4, and 3.8. The mechanical, thermo-physical properties and microstructure of the foam geopolymers before and after exposure to elevated temperature of 800, 1000, and 1200 ℃ were investigated. The specimen with Si O2/Al2O3 molar ratio of 3.8 exhibits the highest compressive strength, better microstructure and dimension stability before and after firing. Carnegeite, nepheline, and zeolite crystalline phases appearing after exposure may contribute to the good post-exposure strength. Low weight foam geopolymer using CFA can increase strength and maintain higher stability as high as 1000 ℃.

Determination of kinetic parameters from calorimetric study of solid state reactions in 7150 Al-Zn-Mg alloy

Differential scanning calorimetric （DSC） study was carried out at different heating rates to examine the solid state reactions in a 7150 A1-Zn-Mg alloy in water-quenched （WQ） state, naturally and artificially aged tempers. The exothermic and endothermic peaks of the thermograms indicating the solid state reaction sequence were identified. The shift of peak temperatures to higher temperatures with increasing heating rates suggests that the solid state reactions are thermally activated and kinetically controlled. The artificial aging behaviour of the alloy was assessed by measuring the variations of hardness with aging time. The fraction of transformation （Y）, the rate of transformation （dY/dt）, the transformation functionflY）, and the kinetic parameters such as activation energy （Q） and frequency factor （k0） of all the solid state reactions in the alloy were determined by analyzing the DSC data, i.e. heat flow involved with the corresponding DSC peaks. It was found that the kinetic parameters of the solid state reactions are in good agreement with the published data.

Rheological characterization of A201 aluminum alloy

The thermodynamic characterization as well as the rheological characterization of the A201 alloy were conducted.Thermodynamic simulations (CALPHAD method) and calorimetric experiments were performed to determine the solidus and liquidus temperatures, the melting range and the sensitivity of the solid fraction at the thixoforming temperatures.The rheology of aluminium alloy A201 was examined using a high temperature Searle rheometer.The flow behaviour was analyzed with concentric cylinders of graphite to avoid chemical interactions with the liquid or semi-solid aluminium.The rotational body was grooved to prevent a phenomenon called wall slippage.Continuous cooling experiment was used to observe the shear rate effects on the flow behaviour.It can be seen that the viscosity level decreases at higher shear rates.Shear rate jump experiment was carried out to evaluate the steady state flow curve within the analyzed shear rate range from 60 s-1 to 260 s-1.It is found that the power law indexes are-1.35 and-1.49 for 35% and 45% solid fraction, respectively.Finally, some mechanical property data of as-cast and as-thixoformed A201 alloy are included indicating the potential for high strength applications.

Thermal Properties of the Product of Palm Stearin and Linseed Oil Transesterification

Triacylglycerols are the main constituents of natural fats and oils and contribute directly to their texture and flavor. The DSC （differential scanning calorimetry） of fats and oils is usually performed in order to characterize their melting and crystallization characteristics. The effect of the chemically catalyzed interesterification of two vegetable oils, i.e. palm stearin and linseed oil, on the thermal behavior of the product is studied. The objective of this study is to analyze the impact of the transesterification reaction conditions and of the initial amounts of oils on the thermal behavior of the product. This work shows that both cooling and heating DSC thermograms undergo significant changes as the result of the mixture of linseed oil and palm stearin and of their transesterification.

New Li-ion Battery Evaluation Research Based on Thermal Property and Heat Generation Behavior of Battery

We do a new Li-ion battery evaluation research on the effects of cell resistance and polariza- tion on the energy loss in batteries based on thermal property and heat generation behavior of battery. Series of 18650 cells with different capacities and electrode materials are evalu- ated by measuring input and output energy which change with charge-discharge time and current. Based on the results of these tests, we build a model of energy loss in cells＇ charge- discharge process, which include Joule heat and polarization heat impact factors. It was reported that Joule heat was caused by cell resistance, which included De-resistance and reaction resistance, and reaction resistance could not be easily obtained through routine test method. Using this new method, we can get the total resistance R and the polarization parameter U. The relationship between R, η, and temperature is also investigated in order to build a general model for series of different Li-ion batteries, and the research can be used in the performance evaluation, state of charge prediction and the measuring of consistency of the batteries.

THE ADSORPTION BEHAVIORS OF 2,6-DICHLOROPHENOL ONTO HYPERCROSSLINKED RESINS

Experimental investigations were conducted on the adsorption characteristics of 2,6-dichlorophenol by two hypercrosslinked resins ZH-01 and XAD-4. The static adsorption was studied. Within temperature range of 288K-313K, the equilibrium adsorption date was fitted to freundlich adsorption isotherm models to evaluate the model parameters. The enthalpies, free energy, entropy were indicative of an exothermic, a spontaneous and disorder decreasing process. The magnitudes for 2,6-dichlorophenol on ZH-01 showed a chemisorption＇s transitions while on XAD-4 shows a physical adsorption process. The results showed that the ZH-01 adsorbents were better than the Amberlite XAD-4 for removing the 2,6-dichlorophenol in aqueous solutions.
