Thermionic beam is very inexpensive and simple to produce. In this work, we give an overview of generation, design and applications of the electron beam with particular reference to e-beam generation at high energy linear accelerators. Experimental data are presented in tabular form for ready reference. We also make an evaluation of these high energy sources with our in-house designed e-beam gun. Finally, a comparison has been presented in terms of characteristic parameters of all these high performance sources.展开更多

The crystal structures of the samples were inspected by the X-ray diffraction (XRD) method, and the evaporation character of warious raw materials was analyzed. Transmittance spectra were measured through a U-3310 spectrophotometer ( wavelength ranging from 200 nm to 900 nm). The refractive index n and the thickness of films were determined from transmission spectra. The experimental results show that the thin films taking Ti2O3 as their raw material have a strong absorption, when taking Ti3O5 and TiO2 as raw materials, the thin films would have good optical properties. The experiments also show that, the crystal structure of all thin films is amorphous before post-annealing and the Ti3O5 is a congruent evaporation phase in the Ti-O system.展开更多

The radiation yield of scission (Gs) and degradation rate of the chitosans were identified. The synergistic chemical degradation in the presence of hydrogen peroxide is more effective at lower doses. Mw of β-chitosan was dramatically decreased from 800,000 to 21,030 at the irradiation dose 5 kGy, on the other hand, that of α-chitosan was decreased much more gradually from 190,000 to 36,000. The values of Gs at 10 kGy in the solution without H2O2 and with H2O2 were respectively 6.09 × 10-5 mol/cal and 30.6 × 10-5 mol/cal for α-Chitosan, and 8.18 × 10-5 mol/cal and 43.8 × 10-5 mol/cal for β-chitosan. It was obviously effective on depolymerization by using the combination of e-beam and H2O2. α-Chitosan molecules are likely to adopt a diffuse conformation in the solution and make the different morphologies depending on the concentration.展开更多

This study focuses on the development of the new material and not on applications. The effect of acid treatment and carbon deposition on the physical properties of the natural material was investigated. The zeolites were characterized via spectroscopic and microscopic methods, thermal analysis, and gas sorption analysis. Analysis revealed that the surface area and volume increased by a factor of ten after the carbon-coating was deposited onto the zeolite surface and indicated that the Si/Al ratio was higher with the acid treated sample. The acid treatment promoted dealumination of the zeolite and increased overall surface area, whereas the carbon coating re-aluminated the zeolite while adding silica back to the main molecular framework, thus increasing crystallinity and thermal stability and further improving the high surface area produced by the acid treatment.展开更多

The initiating efficiency of every photoinitiator increases with the increase of the absorbed dose. Diphenyl iodonium hexafluoroantimonate being the photoinitiator has a higher initiating efficiency, whose optimal quantity is 3%. The curing degree of the system is improved continuously with the increments of the photoinitiator content when the absorbed dose and the dose rate are fixed. The curing degree increases with raising dose rate obviously when the absorbed dose are fixed.展开更多
