One of the main difficulties in the EOR study is the quantitative analysis of the non-volatile products. Conventional on-line electrochemical flowing transmission infrared spectroscopy(ETIRS) can only collect a part of the carbonate products of EOR in alkaline media, making the further quantitative study impossible. Herein, a new ETIRS system has been designed and prepared by employing a cation-exchange membrane(Nafion) in the sampling hood. The using of the Nafion membrane can prevent the anions crossing over by confining the generated carbonates in the sampling hood without diffusing into the bulk electrolyte. Therefore, the collection efficiency of the carbonate products as well as the test accuracy of the carbonate current efficiency has been significantly improved. The result of CO stripping reaction shows that ca. 100% of the carbonate product is able to be collected in alkaline media by this new system. The influence of the experimental temperature to the carbonate current efficiency has been further studied on Pt/C toward EOR in alkaline media.展开更多

The adsorption characteristics of biomaterials are important for hemocompatibility evaluation. In this investigation, the amount of adsorbed human fibrinogen (HFG) and the conformation of the adsorbed HFG on different surfaces were measured simultaneously using transmission FTIR. The surface materials included CaF 2, polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), type II polyurethane made by Chengdu University of Science & Technology, pellethane 2363 55D and pellethane 2363 80A. The results indicate that both the amount of adsorbed protein and the conformation of the adsorbed protein can be measured simultaneously using a single transmission FTIR technique. The result also suggests that a single parameter, either the adsorbed amount or the conformation of the adsorbed HFG, can not provide complete information about the hemocompatibility of the biomaterials.展开更多
