Possibilities for lead and the threeagents to develop stable complexes increased proportionally to the growth of lead complexible formwhen the PH values ranged between 4 and 6. Under acid conditions, logB_(Pb-TTHA)) valued as 28.1 wasmuch higher than logB_(Pb-EDTA), as 18.0 depending on producing Pb_2-TTHA (logK_(Pb_2-TTHA= 11 0) andPb-HTTHA (logK(Pb-HTTTHA)=8.2)). Conclusively, the complexing ability of TTHA with Pb still ex-aseded that of EDTA by about 10% even when the amount of TTHA added was only equal to onefourth of that of EDTA. Due to the lower cost and less harzn to crops, Cit. can still be taken as abetter chelating agent in acid soil although its coordinative capability with Pb was weaker thanEDTA and TTHA.展开更多

Methods From October 2010 to September 2011, we performed a prospective, controlled study in China. 408 children under 5 years old were recruited and group randomized into intervention and control groups. Families and kindergartens in the intervention group were provided with antibacterial products for hand hygiene and surface cleaning or disinfection for one year. Each child＇s illness symptoms and sick leave were recorded every day. Results A total of 393 children completed the study, with similar baseline demographics in each of the 2 groups. Except for abdominal pain, the odds of symptoms （fever, cough and expectoration, runny nose and nasal congestion, diarrhea）, illness （acute respiratory illness and gastrointestinal illness）, and sick leave per person each month were significantly reduced by interventions. The rates of fever, diarrhea, acute respiratory illness, gastrointestinal illness and sick leave per person per year were significantly decreased as well. Conclusion Not only the acute respiratory children were significantly reduced by multiple and gastrointestinal illness but the sick leave rate in interventions.展开更多

Benzotriazole （BTA）, which is used as corrosion inhibitor in the copper CMP slurry, is the primary source for the formation of organic contaminants. The presence of BTA can degrade the electrical properties and reliability of ICs which needs to be removed by using an effective cleaning solution. In this paper, an alkaline cleaning solution was proposed. The alkaline cleaning solution studied in this work consists of a chelating agent and a nonionic surfactant. The removal of BTA was characterized by contact angle measurements and potentiodynamic polarization studies. The cleaning properties of the proposed cleaning solution on a 300 mm copper patterned wafer were also quantified, total defect counts after cleaning was studied, scanning electron microscopy （SEM） review was used to identify types of BTA to confirm the ability of cleaning solution for BTA removal. All the results reveal that the chelating agent can effectively remove the BTA residual, nonionic surfactant can further improve the performance.展开更多
