Methods: Orthogonal experimental design was used to determine the optimal extraction parameters for ecdysterones and flavonoids. Finally, the hepatoprotective abilities of A. nipponensis extracts were evaluated by CCl_4-induced animal models. Results:Maximum yields of flavonoids(7.87±0.10) mg/g and ecdysterones(0.73±0.02) mg/g could be obtained when the extraction time was 50 min, the extraction temperature was 60 ℃, and the ratio of sample to 70%(v/v) ethanol was 1:20(w/w).

Three-factor-three-level Box-Behnken design was employed to optimize the ultrasonic power, extraction time and ratio of water to raw material to obtain a high AGP yield. The analysis of variance and response surface plots indicated that ultrasonic power was the most important factor affecting the extraction yield. The optimal conditions were ultrasonic power 400 W, extraction time 71 min, and ratio of water to raw material 33 mL g-1. Under these conditions, the yield of AGP was 8.09%, which was agreed closely to the predicted value. Gas chromatography (GC) analysis showed that AGP was composed of arabinose, rhamnose, galactose, glucose, and galacturonic acid. Fourier transform infrared spectra revealed the general characteristic absorption peaks of AGP. In addition, AGP exhibited good immunostimulating activities by up-regulating the production of nitric oxide and cytokines. Compared with hot water extraction, UAE required shorter extraction time and gave a higher extraction yield, without changing the structure and immunostimulating activity of AGP. The results indicated that UAE could be an effective and advisable technique for the large scale production of plant polysaccharides.展开更多

The low-cost micrometer-sized PTFE and Al particles were used as starting materials. Under high-power ultrasonic waves, the PTFE powder was dispersed into nano-to sub-micrometer-sized particles and then encapsulated the Al microparticles to form the core-shell structure. The heat of combustion, burning rate, and pressurization rate of the powdered CS-PA were measured. The thermal-initiated reaction behavior was further evaluated using thermogravimetry-differential scanning calorimetry. Subsequently, the bulk CS-PA with a uniform microstructure was obtained via cold isostatic pressing of the powdered CS-PA followed by vacuum sintering. For the bulk CS-PA, the quasi-static compression behavior was characterized, and the impact-initiated reaction processes were conducted using the Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) and evaluated by a high-speed camera. Compared to physically mixed PTFE/Al materials, the powdered and bulk CS-PA demonstrated enhanced thermal- and impact-initiated reaction characteristics respectively, proving the effectiveness of our approach for constructing core-shell structures.展开更多

As regards wire saw cutting fo wafer, however, in traditional wire saw cutting process, the cutting efficiency is low, the wear of wire saw is badly, the surface roughness of wafer is poor etc, which have a seriously impact on the cutting process stability and the use of wafers. Ultrasonic-assisted machining method is very suitable for processing a variety of non-conduc- tive hard and brittle materials, glass, ceramics, quartz, silicon, precious stones and diamonds, etc. In this paper, the force model of ultrusonic-assisted wire saw cutting of SiC monocrystal wafer, based on the kinematic and experi- mental analysis were established. The single factor and orthogonal experimental scheme for different processing pa- rameters such as wire saw speed, part rotation speed of and part feed rate, were carried out in traditional wire saw and ultrasonic-assisted wire saw cutting process. The multiple linear regression method is used to establish the static model among the cutting force, processing parameters and ultrasonic vibration parameters, and the model signifi- cance is verified. The results show, as regards ultrasonic-assisted wire saw cutting of SiC monicrystal wafer, both the tangential and normal cutting forces can reduce about 24. 5%-36% and 36. 6%-40%.展开更多

A centralcomposite design was developed to determine the optimal conditions of three variables(ultrasonication time, quantityof P. putida, and concentration of added rhamnolipid) for the removal of the estrogens, and the biodegradation ratesof the estrogens were investigated under the optimum conditions. Moreover, a quantitative structure-biedegradationrelationship(QSBR) was used to analyze the effect of the estrogenic physicochemical properties on the enhancementof the biological degradation. The optimal conditions were an ultrasonication time of 3 min, a P. putida quantity of 8mL, and a rhamnolipid concentration of 100 mg/L. These conditions resulted in removal of 100%, 94.86%, 94.90%,96.56% and 94.56% of El, E2, EE2, BPA and E3, respectively after 7 d. The degradations were more rapid and com-plete than those reported in previous studies, indicating the suitability of the adaptation of P. putida to estrogen de-gradation under conditions of ultrasonic-assistance and adding rhamnolipid, improvement was particularly apparentfrom the complete degradation of E3. Based on a Pearson correlation analysis, the estrogen molecule polar surfacearea(PSA) and surface tension were significantly related to the biodegradation effect. An analysis of the QSBR modelwith the estrogen biodegradation rates as a dependent variable and the PSA and surface tension as independent va-riables indicated that larger PSA caused decreased estrogen biodegradation, while the biodegradation progress wasdominated by the surface tension of the estrogens. The interaction of PSA and surface tension had an antagonistic ef-fect on the biodegradation of estrogens. Therefore, rhamnolipid/ultrasonication can significantly improve the biode-gradation rates of oestrogens in soil, while simultaneously adjusting other environmental conditions would influenceand control the biodegradation processes of estrogens.展开更多

Diamond machining is the most widely used method in industry for manufacturing precision parts. For fabrication of fine structures on surfaces, conventional diamond machining methods are competitive by considering the precision of structures, but have limitations at machinable structures and machining efficiency, which have been proved to be partly solved by the integration of ultrasonic vibration motion. In this paper, existing ultrasonic-assisted machin- ing methods for fabricating fine surface structures are reviewed and classified, and a rotary ultrasonic texturing (RUT) technology is mainly introduced by presenting the construction of vibration spindles, the texturing principles, and the applications of textured surfaces. Some new ideas and experimental results are presented. Finally, the challenges in using the RUT method to fabricate micro/ nano-textured surfaces are discussed with respect to texturing strategies, machinable structures, and tool wear.展开更多

The analysis of variance and response surface plots indicated that ultrasonic power was the most important factor affecting the extraction yield. The optimal conditions were ultrasonic power 400 W, extraction time 71 min, and ratio of water to raw material 33 mL g-1. Under these conditions, the yield of AGP was 8.09%, which was agreed closely to the predicted value. Gas chromatography (GC) analysis showed that AGP was composed of arabinose, rhamnose, galactose, glucose, and galacturonic acid. Fourier transform infrared spectra revealed the general characteristic absorption peaks of AGP. In addition, AGP exhibited good immunostimulating activities by up-regulating the production of nitric oxide and cytokines. Compared with hot water extraction, UAE required shorter extraction time and gave a higher extraction yield, without changing the structure and immunostimulating activity of AGP. The results indicated that UAE could be an effective and advisable technique for the large scale production of plant polysaccharides.

文摘A facile and economical approach was developed for the large-scale production of powdered core-shell structured PTFE/Al (CS-PA) energetic materials through ultrasonic-assisted mixing. The low-cost micrometer-sized PTFE and Al particles were used as starting materials. Under high-power ultrasonic waves, the PTFE powder was dispersed into nano-to sub-micrometer-sized particles and then encapsulated the Al microparticles to form the core-shell structure. The heat of combustion, burning rate, and pressurization rate of the powdered CS-PA were measured. The thermal-initiated reaction behavior was further evaluated using thermogravimetry-differential scanning calorimetry. Subsequently, the bulk CS-PA with a uniform microstructure was obtained via cold isostatic pressing of the powdered CS-PA followed by vacuum sintering. For the bulk CS-PA, the quasi-static compression behavior was characterized, and the impact-initiated reaction processes were conducted using the Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) and evaluated by a high-speed camera. Compared to physically mixed PTFE/Al materials, the powdered and bulk CS-PA demonstrated enhanced thermal- and impact-initiated reaction characteristics respectively, proving the effectiveness of our approach for constructing core-shell structures.

文摘The advantages, such as a small cutting force, narrow kerf and little material waste make wire saw cut- ting suitable for machining precious materials like SiC, Si monocrystal and a variety of gem. As regards wire saw cutting fo wafer, however, in traditional wire saw cutting process, the cutting efficiency is low, the wear of wire saw is badly, the surface roughness of wafer is poor etc, which have a seriously impact on the cutting process stability and the use of wafers. Ultrasonic-assisted machining method is very suitable for processing a variety of non-conduc- tive hard and brittle materials, glass, ceramics, quartz, silicon, precious stones and diamonds, etc. In this paper, the force model of ultrusonic-assisted wire saw cutting of SiC monocrystal wafer, based on the kinematic and experi- mental analysis were established. The single factor and orthogonal experimental scheme for different processing pa- rameters such as wire saw speed, part rotation speed of and part feed rate, were carried out in traditional wire saw and ultrasonic-assisted wire saw cutting process. The multiple linear regression method is used to establish the static model among the cutting force, processing parameters and ultrasonic vibration parameters, and the model signifi- cance is verified. The results show, as regards ultrasonic-assisted wire saw cutting of SiC monicrystal wafer, both the tangential and normal cutting forces can reduce about 24. 5%-36% and 36. 6%-40%.

文摘A novel two-dimensional ultrasonic surface burnishing process(2D-USBP)is proposed.7075-T6 aluminum samples are processed by a custom-designed 2D-USBP setup.Parameter optimization of 2D-USBP is conducted to determine the best processing strategy of 7075-T6 aluminum.A uniform design method is utilized to optimize the 2D-USBP process.U〔3(133)and 4(72)tables are established to conduct parameter optimization.Burnishing depth,spindle speed,and feed rate are taken as the control parameters.The surface roughness and Vickers hardness are taken as the evaluation indicators.It establishes the active control models for surface quality.Dry wear tests are conducted to compare the wear-resistance of the 2D-USBP treated sample and the original sample.Results show that the machining quality of 2D-USBP is best under 0.24 mm burnishing depth,5000 r/min spindle speed,and 25 mm/min feed rate.The surface roughness of the sample is reduced from 2517.758 to 50.878 nm,and the hardness of the sample surface is improved from 167 to 252 HV.Under the lower load,the wear mechanism of the 2D-USBP treated sample is mainly abrasive wear accompanied by delamination wear,while the wear mechanism of the original sample is mainly delamination wear.Under the higher load,the accumulation of frictional heat on the sample surface transforms the wear mechanisms of the original and the 2D-USBP treated samples into thermal wear.

文摘The nano-nickel hydroxide samples were prepared by means of ultrasonic-assisted precipitation and the impact of source/doping element/buffer on the structure of Ni(OH): was studied. The results of XRD, IR and TEM testing clearly revealed that larger anionic radius of the nickel sources or the buffer solution was conducive to the formation of α-Ni(OH)2. The proportion of α-Ni(OH): samples doped with two elements was larger than that doped with single element. Additionally, speciation, valence as well as the radius of doping ions can directly affect the phase of Ni(OH)2.

文摘Ultrasonic-assisted chemical mechanical polishing(UA-CMP)can greatly improve the sapphire material removal and surface quality,but its polishing mechanism is still unclear.This paper proposed a novel model of material removal rate(MRR)to explore the mechanism of sapphire UA-CMP.It contains two modes,namely two-body wear and abrasive-impact.Furthermore,the atomic force microscopy(AFM)in-situ study,computational fluid dynamics(CFD)simulation,and polishing experiments were conducted to verify the model and reveal the polishing mechanism.In the AFM in-situ studies,the tip scratched the reaction layer on the sapphire surface.The pit with a 0.22 nm depth is the evidence of two-body wear.The CFD simulation showed that abrasives could be driven by the ultrasonic vibration to impact the sapphire surface at high frequencies.The maximum total velocity and the air volume fraction(AVF)in the central area increased from 0.26 to 0.55 m/s and 20%to 49%,respectively,with the rising amplitudes of 1–3μm.However,the maximum total velocity rose slightly from 0.33 to 0.42 m/s,and the AVF was nearly unchanged under 40–80 r/min.It indicated that the ultrasonic energy has great effects on the abrasive-impact mode.The UA-CMP experimental results exhibited that there was 63.7%improvement in MRR when the polishing velocities rose from 40 to 80 r/min.The roughness of the polished sapphire surface was R_(a)=0.07 nm.It identified that the higher speed achieved greater MRR mainly through the two-body wear mode.This study is beneficial to further understanding the UA-CMP mechanism and promoting the development of UA-CMP technology.

文摘As a kind of biopolymer,hydrolysates of fish swim bladder,safer than those of land mammals,are widely used in food,cosmetics as well as pharmaceutical and biomedical fields for their biocompatibility,biodegradability,and weak antigenicity.To enhance hydrolysate production,in this paper,the papain and alcalase hydrolysis processes of larimichthys polyactis swim bladder were optimized with orthogonal experiments.With 89.5%hydrolysate yield,the optimal processing conditions for alcalase were solid-liquid ratio of 1:30,enzyme concentration of 0.7%,and extraction time of 6 h.As for papain,under the optimal processing conditions:solid-liquid ratio of 1:20,enzyme concentration of 0.5%,and extraction time of 8 h,the hydrolysate yield was 65.1%.To obtain higher hydrolysate yields,the ultrasonic pretreatments were implemented before the optimal enzyme hydrolysis processes.With ultrasonic waves of 100 W for 50 min,the hydrolysate yields were increased 2.1%(alcalase)and 4.5%(papain),respectively.The Fourier Transform Infrared(FTIR)spectroscopic analysis revealed that the hydrolysates extracted by papain exist in triple-helical forms.The Ultra-Violet(UV)absorption spectra indicated that the aromatic amino acids in the hydrolysates had strong absorptions in the wavelength range of 240 nm–300 nm.The results of this research demonstrate that the alcalase hydrolysates have better solubility in water and the solution is more stable under ambient temperature.However,the hydrolysates extracted by papain have a gel property and are insoluble in weak acid at room temperature,which is more suitable for applications in feedstock of biomedical.

文摘In this study,to address the low efficiency for conventional ultrasonic-assisted drlling(UAD)of carbon fiber-reinforced plastic and titanium alloy(CFRP/Ti)stacks,feasibility experiments of non-separation UAD,in which continuous cutting between the tool and the workpiece occurs at a high feed rate,are carried out.The experimental results indicate that,compared to conventional separation UAD,the non-separation UAD effectively reduces the cutting forces by 24.2%and 1.9%for CFRP stage and 22.1%and 2.6%for the Ti stage at the feed rates of 50 and 70μm/r,respectively.Furthermore,the non-separation UAD significantly improves hole quality,including higher hole diameter accuracy,lower hole surface roughness,and less hole damage.In addition,the non-separation UAD can decrease adhesive tool wear.This study demonstrates that,compared to conventional drilling(CD),the non-separation UAD can effectively improve drilling quality and tool life while maintaining high efficiency.
文摘The present study aimed to completely remove estrogens, including oestrone(E1), oestradiol(E2), oes-triol(E3), 17a-ethinylestradiol(EE2) and bisphenol-A(BPA), from soil using Pseudomonas putida(P., putida). A centralcomposite design was developed to determine the optimal conditions of three variables(ultrasonication time, quantityof P. putida, and concentration of added rhamnolipid) for the removal of the estrogens, and the biodegradation ratesof the estrogens were investigated under the optimum conditions. Moreover, a quantitative structure-biedegradationrelationship(QSBR) was used to analyze the effect of the estrogenic physicochemical properties on the enhancementof the biological degradation. The optimal conditions were an ultrasonication time of 3 min, a P. putida quantity of 8mL, and a rhamnolipid concentration of 100 mg/L. These conditions resulted in removal of 100%, 94.86%, 94.90%,96.56% and 94.56% of El, E2, EE2, BPA and E3, respectively after 7 d. The degradations were more rapid and com-plete than those reported in previous studies, indicating the suitability of the adaptation of P. putida to estrogen de-gradation under conditions of ultrasonic-assistance and adding rhamnolipid, improvement was particularly apparentfrom the complete degradation of E3. Based on a Pearson correlation analysis, the estrogen molecule polar surfacearea(PSA) and surface tension were significantly related to the biodegradation effect. An analysis of the QSBR modelwith the estrogen biodegradation rates as a dependent variable and the PSA and surface tension as independent va-riables indicated that larger PSA caused decreased estrogen biodegradation, while the biodegradation progress wasdominated by the surface tension of the estrogens. The interaction of PSA and surface tension had an antagonistic ef-fect on the biodegradation of estrogens. Therefore, rhamnolipid/ultrasonication can significantly improve the biode-gradation rates of oestrogens in soil, while simultaneously adjusting other environmental conditions would influenceand control the biodegradation processes of estrogens.
文摘In this paper, the state of art of ultrasonic- assisted machining technologies used for fabrication of micro/nano-textured surfaces is reviewed. Diamond machining is the most widely used method in industry for manufacturing precision parts. For fabrication of fine structures on surfaces, conventional diamond machining methods are competitive by considering the precision of structures, but have limitations at machinable structures and machining efficiency, which have been proved to be partly solved by the integration of ultrasonic vibration motion. In this paper, existing ultrasonic-assisted machin- ing methods for fabricating fine surface structures are reviewed and classified, and a rotary ultrasonic texturing (RUT) technology is mainly introduced by presenting the construction of vibration spindles, the texturing principles, and the applications of textured surfaces. Some new ideas and experimental results are presented. Finally, the challenges in using the RUT method to fabricate micro/ nano-textured surfaces are discussed with respect to texturing strategies, machinable structures, and tool wear.
