The theory and experiment of solute migration caused by excited state absorptions

Nonsymmetrical transition from reverse-saturable absorption （RSA） to saturable absorption （SA） caused by excited state absorption induced mass transport of the CuPcTs dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide is observed in an open aperture Z-scan experiment with a 21-ps laser pulse. The nonsymmetrical transition from RSA to SA is ascribed neither to saturation of excited state absorption nor to thermal induced mass transport, the so-called Sorer effect. In our consideration, strong nonlinear absorption causes the rapid accumulation of the non-uniform kinetic energy of the solute molecules. The non-uniform kinetic field in turn causes the migration of the solute molecules. Additionally, an energy-gradient-induced mass transport theory is presented to interpret the experimental results, and the theoretical calculations are also taken to fit our experimental results.

High-gradient magnetic field-controlled migration of solutes and particles and their effects on solidification microstructure:A review

We present a review of the principal developments in the evolution and synergism of solute and particle migration in a liquid melt in high-gradient magnetic fields and we also describe their effects on the solidification microstructure of alloys.Diverse areas relevant to various aspects of theory and applications of high-gradient magnetic field-controlled migration of solutes and particles are surveyed.They include introduction,high-gradient magnetic field effects,migration behavior of solute and particles in high-gradient magnetic fields,microstructure evolution induced by high-gradient magnetic fieldcontrolled migrations of solute and particles,and properties of materials modified by high-gradient magnetic field-tailored microstructure.Selected examples of binary and multiphase alloy systems are presented and examined,with the main focus on the correlation between the high-gradient magnetic field-modified migration and the related solidification microstructure evolution.Particular attention is given to the mechanisms responsible for the microstructure evolution induced by highgradient magnetic fields.

The Characteristics of Migration of Ore Solutions in No.6 East Tin Deposit of the Songshujiao Orefield, Gejiu

No. 6 East tin deposit in the Songshujiao orefield, Gejiu, is characterized by one-stage hydrothermal activity and monotonous country rocks. The authors selected this deposit and used the multivariate statistical analysis to study the types of association of main ore-forming elements at different temperatures and pressures and their distribution in the deposit. On that basis combined with the structural analysis of the deposit, the recto-geochemical features of No.6 East tin deposit have been revealed and the direction and channel of migration of the ore solutions in faults and the deposit have been deduced. This research can appropriately elucidate the control of faults on the migration of ore solutions and the sites where ore solutions are dispersed and accumulated, thus providing the theoretical basis for the prediction of hydrothermal deposits in question.

Mechanisms of salt rejection at the ice-liquid interface during the freezing of pore fluids in the seasonal frozen soil area

Seasonal frozen soil accounts for about 53.50%of the land area in China.Frozen soil is a complex multiphase system where ice,water,soil,and air coexist.The distribution and migration of salts in frozen soil during soil freezing are notably different from those in unfrozen soil areas.However,little knowledge is available about the process and mechanisms of salt migration in frozen soil.This study explores the mechanisms of salt migration at the ice-liquid interface during the freezing of pore fluids through batch experiments.The results are as follows.The solute concentrations of liquid and solid phases at the ice-liquid interface(C*_(L),C*_(S))gradually increased at the initial stage of freezing and remained approximately constant at the middle stage.As the ice-liquid interface advanced toward the system boundary,the diffusion of the liquid phase was blocked but the ice phase continued rejecting salts.As a result,C*_(L)and C*_(S)rapidly increased at the final stage of freezing.The distribution characteristics of solutes in ice and the liquid phases before C*_(L)and C*_(S)became steady were mainly affected by the freezing temperature,initial concentrations,and particle-size distribution of media(quartz sand and kaolin).In detail,the lower the freezing temperature and the better the particle-size distribution of media,the higher the solute proportion in the ice phase at the initial stage of freezing.Meanwhile,the increase in concentration first promoted but then inhibited the increase of solutes in the ice phase.These results have insights and scientific significance for the tackling of climate change,the environmental protection of groundwater and soil,and infrastructure protection such as roads,among other things.

Migration equation of solute in high performance capillary zone electrophoresis

In order to reveal the relationship between migration time and solute structure aswell as electrophoretic operation conditions in high performance capillary zoneelectrophoresis (HPCZE), researchers have presented many empirical and semi-empiricalmodels. These models have two main dissatisfactory points. Firstly, a constant is im-

Influence of electric field on the quenched-in vacancy and solute clustering during early stage ageing of Al-Cu alloy

The effects of electric field on the evolution of excess quenched-in vacancy as well as solute clustering in Al-4wt%Cu alloy, and on the vacancy migration and formation enthalpy of pure aluminum were investigated, using positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy, high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, hardness measurement and four-probe electrical resistivity measurement. The results showed that the electric field improved age hardening response obviously and postponed the decay of excess vacancies for 30rain during the early stage ageing of Al-4wt%Cu alloy. A large number of 2-4nm GP zones with dense distribution were observed after 1 min ageing with an electric field applied. The electric field-assisted-aged sample owned a lower coarsening rate of GP zone, which was about three fifths of that in the aged sample without an electric field, from 1 min to 120 rain ageing. The electric field contributed 8% increase of the vacancy migration enthalpy （0.663 ±0.021 eV） of pure Al, comparing with that （0.611 ±0.023 eV） of pure Al without an electric field. The increase of vacancy migration enthalpy, induced by the electric field, was responsible for the difference on evolution of quenched-in vacancy, rapid solute clustering and age hardening improvement during the early stage ageing of Al-4wt%Cu alloy.

Structures of sodium vanadate solution under different conditions

Combined with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy（FTIR） analysis of sodium vanadate solution,the relationship between conductivity and structure was investigated by measuring the electric conductivity of the solution under different alkali concentrations and molar ratios of NaOH to V2O5. Results suggest that the polymerization vanadium acid radical ions gradually transform into monomer with the solution diluting. When the solution is diluted to a certain extent,only the vanadium acid radical ion with V-OH chemical bond exists in the solution. At NaOH concentration of below 105.21 g·L^（-1）,the vanadate anions mainly exist in the form of vanadium acid radical ion with V-OH chemical bond and the ion transference number is approximately from 0.58 to 0.82. In the medium NaOH concentration range of 105.21-117.03 g·L^（-1）, the vanadate anions mostly exist in the form of vanadium acid radical ion with V-OH and V-O-V chemical bonds and the ion transference number is approximately 3.29. At NaOH concentration of above 117.03 g·L^（-1）, vanadate anions exist in the form of vanadium acid radical ion with V-OH and V-O-V chemical bonds.
