Macroinitiators prepared by the esterification between poly(ethylene oxide) (PEG) and 2,2-dichloroacetyl chloride were utilized to initiate the polymerization of 6-[4-(4-ethoxyphenylazo)phenoxy]hexyl rnethacrylate (M6C). The resulting macroinitiators and block copolymers were characterized by ^1H NMR, gel permeation chromatography (GPC). Polarizing optical microscopy (POM) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) preliminarily revealed the liquid crystalline property of these block copolymers. This series of liquid crystalline block copolymers are promising in some areas, such as optical data storage, optical switch, and molecular devices.展开更多

Selectively catalytic alkylation of naphthalene with n-hexanol to hexyl-naphthalene over the zeolites was carried out. The experimental results show that the catalytic activities of the zeolites are mainly determined by their acid properties and pore structures. The larger the pore diameter is, the higher the catalytic activity is. NH3-TPD profiles show that Hβ and HM have lower acid strengths than HY. HY has both the highest activity and highest selectivity for the hexylnaphthalene. Higher reaction temperatures and longer reaction time are beneficial to the production of β-hexyl-naphthalene over the HY zeolite.展开更多

In contrast to the previous studies, the rotational speed of the turbine is not fixed, the rotation of the turbine is determined by the dynamic interaction between the fluctuating wind and turbine. A weak coupling method is developed to simulate the dynamic interaction between the fluctuating wind and passive rotation turbine, and the results show that if the fluctuating wind with appropriate fluctuation amplitude and frequency, the self-starting aerodynamic characteristics of VAWT will be enhanced. It is also found that compared with the fluctuation amplitude, the fluctuation frequency of the variation in wind velocity is shown to have a minor effect on the performance of the turbine. The analysis will provide straightforward physical insight into the self-starting aerodynamic characteristics of VAWT under fluctuating wind.展开更多

文摘H-type zeolites( HY, Hβ, and HM) were synthesized and characterized by XRD, NH3-TPD, and Py-IR. Selectively catalytic alkylation of naphthalene with n-hexanol to hexyl-naphthalene over the zeolites was carried out.

IMT and stiffness in H-type hypertension group and non-H-type hypertension group were significantly greater than those in the control group, while distensibility was significantly less than that in the control group. IMT and stiffness in H-type hypertension group were significantly greater than those in non-H-type hypertension group, while distensibility was significantly less than that in non-H-type hypertension group.Conclusions: Hcy can directly affect carotid AS, increase carotid IMT, and promote the occurrence of hypertension merged with acute cerebral infarction;therefore, positive monitoring of serum Hcy level and IMT thickness in patients with hypertension and acute cerebral infarction and early intervention are of great significance in reducing the occurrence of carotid AS, delaying the progression of carotid AS, and preventing hypertension and acute cerebral infarction.
文摘Objective:To explore the correlation of carotid IMT (cIMT) with Hcy, Cyst-C, UA, and Lp(a) in middle-aged patients with H-type hypertension.Methods:A total of 120 middle-aged patients with H-type hypertension who were admitted in our hospital from July, 2015 to July, 2016 were included in the study. The color Doppler ultrasound diagnostic apparatus was used for the two-dimensional ultrasound examination. The patients were divided into the normal group, thickening group, and plaque group with 40 cases in each group according to the atherosclerosis (AS). The full automatic biochemical analyzer was used to detect the plasma Hcy, Cyst-C, UA, Scr, Bun, TC, TG, LDL-C, and HDL-C. Emulsion turbidity method was used to detect Lp(a).Results:With the thickening of cIMT, Hcy, Cyst-C, Lp(a), and UA levels were elevated, while HDL-C level was reduced.Conclusions:The serum Hcy, Cyst-C, UA, and Lp(a) levels in middle-aged patients with H-type hypertension are positively correlated with cIMT, are the independent risk factors for developing AS, and can be served as the early indicators to estimate the occurrence and development of AS.
文摘Objective:To explore the effect of folic acid combined with routine drugs on Hcy metabolism, inflammatory response and plaque properties in patients with H-type hypertension complicated by carotid atherosclerosis.Methods: A total of 68 patients with H-type hypertension complicated by carotid atherosclerosis who received treatment in our hospital between January 2014 and September 2016 were collected and divided into control group (n=34) and observation group (n=34) according to random number table. The control group received routine therapy and the observation group received folic acid combined with routine drug therapy. The differences in Hcy metabolism, inflammatory response and plaque properties were compared between the two groups of patients before and after treatment.Results:Before treatment, differences in serum Hcy contents, pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory mediator contents, and ultrasound plaque property parameter levels were not statistically significant between two groups of patients. After treatment, serum Hcy content of observation group was lower than that of control group;serum pro-inflammatory factors IL-1, IL-6, IL-8 and CRP contents were lower than those of control group;serum anti-inflammatory factors IL-4, IL-10 and IL-13 contents were lower than those of control group;ultrasound plaque property parameter strain value was lower than that of control group while plaque strain rate was higher than that of control group.Conclusion:Folic acid treatment based on routine treatment can effectively accelerate the Hcy metabolism, reduce systemic inflammatory response and increase the plaque stability in patients with H-type hypertension complicated by carotid atherosclerosis.
