Studies on Reduced Extent Method for Inhibited Thermokinetics Of Enzyme－Catalyzed Reaction──Inhibition of the laccase－catalyzed oxidation of o－dihydroxybenzene by m－dihydroxybenzene

The thermokinetic reduced extent equations of reversible inhibitions for Michaiels-Menten enzymatic reaction were deduced, and then the criteria for distingushing inhibition type was given and the methods for calculating kinetic parameters, KM,Ki and Urn were suggested. This theory was applied to inverstigate the inhibited thermokinetics of laccase-catalyzed oxidation of o-dihydroxybenzene by m-dihydroxybenzene. The experimental results show the inhibition belongs to reversible competitive type, KM=6.224×10-3 mol L-1, Ki=2. 363 × 10-2 mol. L-1.

Ultrathin Zincophilic Interphase Regulated Electric Double Layer Enabling Highly Stable Aqueous Zinc‑Ion Batteries

The practical application of aqueous zinc-ion batteries for large-grid scale systems is still hindered by uncontrolled zinc dendrite and side reactions.Regulating the elec-trical double layer via the electrode/electrolyte interface layer is an effective strategy to improve the stability of Zn anodes.Herein,we report an ultrathin zincophilic ZnS layer as a model regu-lator.At a given cycling current,the cell with Zn@ZnS electrode displays a lower potential drop over the Helmholtz layer(stern layer)and a suppressed diffuse layer,indicating the regulated charge distribution and decreased electric double layer repulsion force.Boosted zinc adsorption sites are also expected as proved by the enhanced electric double-layer capacitance.Consequently,the symmetric cell with the ZnS protection layer can stably cycle for around 3,000 h at 1 mA cm^(-2) with a lower overpotential of 25 mV.When coupled with an I2/AC cathode,the cell demonstrates a high rate performance of 160 mAh g^(-1) at 0.1 A g^(-1) and long cycling stability of over 10,000 cycles at 10 A g^(-1).The Zn||MnO_(2) also sustains both high capacity and long cycling stability of 130 mAh g^(-1) after 1,200 cycles at 0.5 A g^(-1).

Study of Activation and Inhibition of Certain Metal Ions to Amylase Catalyzed Reaction by Microcalorimetry

With or without activation or inhibition of metal ion,the power-time curves of amylase catalyzed reaction were determined by a 2277 thermal activity monitor (Sweden). The Michaelis constant ( K ),apparent Michaelis constant ( K _m),maximum velocity ( v _m) and apparent maximum velocity ( v _ am ) of amylase catalyzed reaction were obtained using thermokinetic theory and reduced extent method. On the basis of data obtained,the following relationships between K _m and concentration of metal ion ( c ) were established: for inhibitor of Ni 2+ K _m=2.9648×10 -3 -1.3912×10 -4 cR =0.9998for inhibitor of Co 2+ K _m=1.0227×10 -3 +8.2676×10 -6 cR =0.9955for activator of Ca 2+ K _m=1.0630×10 -7 c 2-1.8311×10 -6 c +9.3058×10 -6 R =0.9999for activator of Li + K _m=5.6300×10 -8 c 2-1.5329×10 -6 c +1.2662×10 -5 R =0.9999 The K _m- c relationships show a strenuous inhibitory effect for Ni 2+ and a strenuous active effect for Ca 2+ .

Electron beam surface heating-diffusion bonding:An effective joining method for aluminum alloy metal-matrix composite with high SiC volume

As a novel method to reduce the temperature during electron beam welding,and to subsequently inhibit interfacial reaction between SiC and Al matrix,the electron beam surface heating-diffusion bonding is proposed for joining SiC particle reinforced aluminum alloy metal-matrix composite of 45 vol.%SiC/2024 Al.The defocused electron beam was used to heat the base metal surface,and the simultaneous pressure was applied to the butt surface to achieve bonding.The base metals were successfully joined by diffusion.The maximum temperature of the whole joint was effectively decreased to less than 650°C.The Gibbs free energy change of interfacial reaction was calculated,meaning a positive value reaching 218 kJ/mol and a consequently prominent inhibitory effect on the formation of brittle Al_(4)C_(3)that was proved by microstructural observation.The tensile strength for the bonded joint was increased by 35%compared to that for ordinary welded joint.When the TC4 layer was added,TiC strengthening particles were formed with the deficiency of Al_(4)C_(3),corresponding to the significantly increased tensile strength of 63%of base metal(154 MPa).
