The effects of the chain length of side chain groups on the viscosity, acid value, low temperature fluidity, thermo-oxidative stability, tribological properties and surface tension of diester derivatives were investigated. The results showed that increasing the chain length of side chain groups had a positive influence on the viscosity, viscosity index, acid value, pour point, friction coefficient and wear scar diameter along with a negative influence on the oxidation onset temperature, volatile loss, insoluble deposit, maximum non-seizure load and surface tension. These diester derivatives exhibited improved physicochemical and tribological properties that make themselves promising environmentally friendly biolubricant basestocks.展开更多

Although the DBP removal processes are different when the DBP initial concentration is different, the overall system DBP removal efficiencies are high(N 94%).DEHP is much more difficult to remove than DBP. The removal efficiency of DEHP is approximately 75%–78%.The results of mass balance calculations indicate that approximately 33.7%–50.7% of the DBP is degraded by the activated sludge, 48.9%–64.9% accumulates in the system, and 0.4%–1.4% is contained in the final effluent. Approximately 15.0%–19.0% of the DEHP is degraded by activated microcosms, 75.8%–79.0% accumulates in the system, and 5.2%–6.0% is contained in the final effluent. Biodegradation and adsorption to the activated sludge are the main mechanisms for DBP removal and adsorption to the activated sludge is the main mechanism for DEHP removal. The different removal mechanisms of the two PAEs may be related to their different molecular structures. However, PAEs are not really removed when they adsorb onto the sludge. Therefore, methods for decreasing PAEs adsorption and increasing the biodegradation efficiencies of the leachate treatment processes should be further investigated.展开更多

The second-order rate constant kBNPP, 2.3×10.3 (mol^-1L S^-1), was determined. The dinuclear monohydroxo species, L-2Tb-OH, is kinetically mainly active species. The hydrolysis rate of BNPP by the complex is increased almost 2.6 million-fold compared with the background hydroxide rate at the same condition.展开更多

Experimental data show that the dimerization of porphyrins is mainly determined by π-π interaction in pure organic solution while further aggregation of porphyrins with long hydro-carbon chains is more likely driven by hydrophobic-lipophilic interaction in aqueous-organic binary solution. The appearance of the aggregates induces a red shift in absorption spectra and fluorescence quenching in fluorescence spectra. The chain-length effect and chain-foldability effect have also been observed.展开更多
