Acupuncture is a very important TCM characteristic treatment method in clinical practice, which has the characteristics of convenience and speed, remarkable efficacy, safety and reliability, and few adverse reactions in the treatment of ASO.展开更多

为了认识痕量元素As在飞灰中的富集特性,利用密度泛函理论研究了砷的典型氧化物AsO在飞灰中的主要成分SiO_2模型上的吸附机理,对优化后的吸附构型进行能量计算、AIM理论、Mulliken电荷分析以及定域化轨道指示函数(LOL)填色图分析,剖析了...为了认识痕量元素As在飞灰中的富集特性,利用密度泛函理论研究了砷的典型氧化物AsO在飞灰中的主要成分SiO_2模型上的吸附机理,对优化后的吸附构型进行能量计算、AIM理论、Mulliken电荷分析以及定域化轨道指示函数(LOL)填色图分析,剖析了AsO与SiO_2表面的相互作用。结果表明,AsO在无定型SiO_2表面的缺陷位的吸附能均大于50 k J/mol,吸附构型均为典型的化学吸附。在无定型SiO_2缺陷活性位点形成的As-Si键、Si-O键和As-O键强度较大,均属于共价键;SiO_2与AsO之间为共价相互作用。展开更多
