Gas film pressure distribution and carrying capacity of the floatation cushion are studied through theoretical analysis and by using the overlapping stitching technique. The carrying capacity and stiffness were obtained by using the coupling procedure of the gas lubrication governing equation and elastic deformation of the membrane governing equation. The results of theoretical calculations can obtain a conclusion that the effect of the gas pressure makes the annular elastic membrane elastically deform that brings about changes of throttling area and pressure groove depth of the floatation cushion. It makes carrying capacity and stiffness of the new style floata- tion cushion markedly improve over the conventional flotation cushion. The new floatation cushion has a wider ap- plication and popularization of space. Key words： floatation cushion; variable-section pressure equalizing groove;stiffness展开更多

The study shows that Zn(II) can associate with NH4SCN and CTMAB to form insoluble ternary ion-association complex, and the precipitate can float on the surface of the liquid phase. A good linear relationship is observed between the floatation yield (E%) of Zn(II) and the amount of CTMAB. On the ground, CTMAB can be indirectly determined by determining E% of Zn(II). The results were satisfactory.展开更多

In this paper, the hydrophobic complex composed of Mg（II） and TC was floated into organic phase under the optimal conditions： pH=10, the floatation equipment is home-made, n-propyl alcohol as the organic solvent, sodium chloride as the separating phase reagent. The data were obtained by spectrophotometry after floatation; The linear regression equation is A=2.33×10^5C（mol/L）＋0.2179, linear range is from 3.77×10^-7mol/L to 6.32×10^-5 mol/L, respectively, with thecorrelation coefficient （r） better than 0.9997, relative recoveries is 99.7% to 100.3%, limit of detection was 4.29×10^-5mol/L, The method can be applied to analyse the trace TC in water sample, the result is better.展开更多
