The effect of basieity on sintering behavior of low-titanium vanadium-titanium mixture, and the transference and distribution of element in sintering process were researched by sinter pot test, mineralogical analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) analysis. The results show that CaO preferentially reacts with TiO2, generating pervoskite, so that the total liquid phase content of the sinter is low. There is an increase in the perovskite concentration of the sinter with the basicity ranging from 1.9:1 to 2.7:1. With increasing the basicity, the calcium ferrite content increases slightly and then rises rapidly, while the silicate content decreases and the metallurgical property of the sinter is improved. As for the distribution of these elements in the sinter, Ti occurs mainly in perovskite, V occurs mainly in silicate, and Fe occurs mainly in magnetite and hematite. The most abundant occurrence of Ca and Si occurs in silicate and perovskite. With increasing the basicity, the contents of A1 and Mg increase in calcium ferrite, while they decrease in other minerals.展开更多

Compared with water-soluble acrylic resin, the phase inversion of 2K-WPU occurs at lower water content. It is indicated by TEM that 2K-WPU parti-cles show a core-shell structure, in which HDI biuret is encapsulated by hydrophilic acrylic resin. 2K-WPU emulsion with HDI biuret has larger particle size and narrower distribution index, while for 2K-WPU emulsion with HDI iso-cyanurate, the latex not only has large particle size, but also has two-peak distribution. FTIR shows that the reaction be-tween HDI biuret and acrylic resin can complete in 12h. In addition, studies on effect of composition of acrylic resin on performance of 2K-WPU show that narrowing the polar difference between water-soluble acrylic resin and HDI biuret and improving the miscibility of two components are the key to prepare the transparent and high gloss films with high crosslinking density.展开更多

A correlation between the viscosity and the slag structure was determined by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. It is indicated that the complex network structure of the slag melt is depolymerized into simpler network units with increasing basicity or MgO content, resulting in a continuous decrease in viscosity of the slag. The viscosity is strongly dependent on the combined action of basic oxide components in the slag. Under the present experimental conditions, increasing the basicity is found to be more effective than increasing the MgO content in decreasing the viscosity of the slag. At higher temperatures, the increase of basicity or MgO content does not appreciably decrease the viscosity of the slag, as it does at lower tem-peratures. The calculated activation energy of viscous flow is between 154 and 200 kJ·mol-1, which decreases with an increase in basicity from 0.4 to 1.0 at a fixed MgO content in the range of 13wt%to 19wt%.展开更多

The regulator PhoP and its sensor kinase PhoR compose a two-component system in B. subtilis. In this study, the phoR- and phoP-knockout mutants were constructed by in-frame deletion and the role of PhoR/PhoP on the production of fengycin was determined. Inactivation of phoR or phoP in B. subtilis decreased its inhibition ability against Botrytis cinerea growth in vitro compared to the strain NCD-2 wild type. The lipopeptides were extracted from strain NCD-2 wild type and its mutant strains by hydrochloric acid precipitate, and the lipopeptides from phoR-null mutant orphoP-null mutant almost lost the inhibition ability against B. cinerea growth compared to the lipopeptides from strain NCD-2 wild type. Fast protein liquid chromatography (FPLC) analysis of the lipopeptides showed that inactivation of phoR or phoP genes reduced the production of fengycin by strain NCD-2. The fengycin production abilities were compared for bacteria under low-phosphate medium (LPM) and high-phosphate medium (HPM), respectively. Results indicated that the regulation of fengycin production by the PhoR/PhoP two-component system occurred in LPM but not in HPM. Reverse transcriptionaI-PCR confirmed that the fengycin synthetase gene fenC was positively regulated by phoP when cultured in LPM. All of these characteristics could be partially restored by complementation of intact phoR or phoP gene in the mutant. These data indicated that the PhoR/PhoP two-component system greatly regulated fengycin production and antifungal ability in B. subtilis NCD-2 mainly under low-phosphate conditions.展开更多

In this study, we experimentally investigated phosphate enrichment behavior in CaO-SiO2-FeO-Fe203-P205 slags with a P205 content of 5.00% and the binary basicity B ranging from 1.0 to 2.0, where the (%Fe/O)/(%CaO) mass percentage ratio was maintained at 0.955. The experimental results are explained by the defined enrichment degree c, of solid solution 2CaO·SiO2-3CaO·P205 (C2S-C3P), where R_C2S-C3P is a component of the developed ion and molecule coexistence theory (IMCT)-Ni model for calculating the mass action concentrations Ni of structural units in the slags on the basis of the IMCT. The asymmetrically inverse V-shaped relation be- tween phosphate enrichment and binary basicity B was observed to be correlated in the slags under applied two-stage cooling conditions. The maximum content of PROs in the C2S-C3P solid solution reached approximately 30.0% when the binary basicity B was controlled at 1.3.展开更多

Firstly, the component activities and sulfide capacity (Cs) of the slag were calculated. Then slag-metal equilibrium experiments were carried out to measure the equilibrium sulfur distribution (Ls). Based on the laboratorial experiments, slag composition was optimized for a better desulfurization ability, which was verified by industrial trials in a steel plant. The obtained results indicated that an MgO-saturated CaO-Al2O3-SiO2-MgO system with the basicity of about 3.5-5.0 and the Al2O3 content in the range of 20wt%-25wt% has high activity of CaO (αCaO), with no deterioration of Cs compared with conventional desulfurization slag. The measured Ls between high-strength low-alloyed (HSLA) steel and slag with a basicity of about 3.5 and an Al2O3 content of about 20wt% and between HSLA steel and slag with a basicity of about 5.0 and an Al2O3 content of about 25wt% is 350 and 275, respectively. The new slag with a basicity of about 3.5-5.0 and an Al2O3 content of about 20wt% has strong desulfurization ability. In particular, the key for high-efficiency desulfurization is to keep oxygen potential in the reaction system as low as possible, which was also verified by industrial trials.展开更多

Because of time consumption and difficulties encountered during high temperature experimental measurement, viscosity data are also limited, so a rea-sonable and accurate estimation model is required to provide the data for controlling and optimizing the blast furnace process. In the present study a viscosity model was proposed for blast furnace slags. In the model the activation energy was calculated by the optical basicity cor-rected for cations required for the charge compensation of , and the temperature dependence was described by the Weymann-Frenkel equation. The estimated viscosity values of the CaO-Al2O3-SiO2, CaO-Al2O3-SiO2-MgO, and CaO-Al2O3-SiO2-MgO-TiO2 systems fit well with experiment data, with the mean deviation less than 25%.展开更多

The experimental results showed that carbonation rate of concrete at a given absolute basicity (AB) increased moderately with the increase of the porosity ranging from 6.2% to 9.25%, and increased rapidly with porosity from 9.25% to 12.8%.The coupling effect mainly embodied in disappeared mutation point of capillary porosity, and the distributing regions of carbonation depth were clearly partitioned in the coupling influence of absolute basicity and capillary porosity. A design method on carbonation related durability of concrete based on the coupling effects was proposed.展开更多

The energy barrier is a surface integral of the elastic energy density Wq. The elastic energy density is induced by thermal stresses acting in an isotropic spherical particle (q = p) with the radius R and in a cubic cell of an isotropic matrix (q = m). The spherical particle and the matrix are components of a multi-particle-matrix system representing a model system applicable to a real two-component material of a precipitation-matrix type. The multi-particle-matrix system thus consists of periodically distributed isotropic spherical particles and an isotropic infinite matrix. The infinite matrix is imaginarily divided into identical cubic cells with a central spherical particle in each of the cubic cells. The dimension d of the cubic cell then corresponds to an inter-particle distance. The parameters R, d along with the particle volume fraction v = v(R, d) as a function of R, d represent micro- structural characteristics of a real two-component material. The thermal stresses are investigated within the cubic cell, and accordingly are functions of the microstructural charac- teristics. The thermal stresses originate during a cooling pro- cess as a consequence of the difference am - ap in thermal expansion coefficients between the matrix and the particle, am and ap, respectively. The energy barrier Wsq is used for the determination of the thermal-stress induced strengthening aq. The strengthening represents resistance against com- pressive or tensile mechanical loading for am - ap 〉 0 or am - ap 〈 0. respectively.展开更多

In this model, the temperature dependence of the rate constant can be described by the Arrhenius law, and the activation energy can be expressed with a linear function of the slag's optical basicity. The model was applied to some molten slag systems, such as FeO, FeO-CaO, FeO-SiO2, FeO-Na2O, FeO-CaO-SiO2, FeO-SiO2-P2O5, FeO-SiOE-Na2O, and FeO-CaO-SiOE-P2O5.

The glasses containing Nd3+ in (25 - x)Bi2O3:20Li2O:20ZnO:35B2O3:xNd2O3 (where x = 1, 1.5, 2 mol%) have been prepared by melt-quenching method. The amorphous nature of the glasses was confirmed by X-ray diffraction studies. The physical parameters like dielectric constant, refractive index, ionic concentration, oxygen-packing density, inter ionic distance, polaronradius, reflection loss, energy gap, molar refractivity, molar polarizability, electronic polarizability, optical basicity and field strength are computed. On the basis of the measured values of the density and refractive index, the Nd3+ ion concentration in glasses, the polarizability of oxide ions and optical basicity were theoretically determined. The theoretical value of average electronic polarizability and oxide ion polarizability were calculated by using Lorentz-Lorenz formula. Theoretical optical basicity of the glasses is evaluated based on equation proposed by Duffy and Ingram. The metallization criterion has also been calculated on the basis of refractive index and energy gap. The large value of metallization criterion indicates that the glass materials are insulators. The results obtained predict the nature of bonding in the present glasses and provide basis for developing new nonlinear optical material.展开更多

The electrical volume resistivity of the composites were examined and compared under constant tensile strains, cyclic heating-cooling, electric field and repeated cyclic tensile strains in order to study the mechanism of electrical conductivity behaviors of the conductive composites under stress, temperature and current. The results showed that a peak value of the electrical resistivity appeared previously and then gradually increasing with increasing tensile strain. The electrical resistivity displayed positive temperature coefficient effect during the temperature increasing and decreasing. Applying 5A direct current to the conductive composites lesulted in an increase in the electrical resistance immediately, but no changes were detected under lower currents. Under the repeated cyclic strain, the peak value of the electrical resistivity of each cycle increased with the test cycle. All the electrical resistivity changes were attributed to the conductive networks broken-up and rebuilt in the conductive composites.展开更多

文摘The desulfurization ability of refining slag with relative lower basicity (B) and Al2O3 content (B = 3.5-5.0; 20wt%-25wt% Al2O3) was studied.

The measured Ls between high-strength low-alloyed (HSLA) steel and slag with a basicity of about 3.5 and an Al2O3 content of about 20wt% and between HSLA steel and slag with a basicity of about 5.0 and an Al2O3 content of about 25wt% is 350 and 275, respectively. The new slag with a basicity of about 3.5-5.0 and an Al2O3 content of about 20wt% has strong desulfurization ability. In particular, the key for high-efficiency desulfurization is to keep oxygen potential in the reaction system as low as possible, which was also verified by industrial trials.

文摘The modulational instability of two-component Bose-Einstein condensates(BECs)under an external parabolic potential is discussed.Based on the trapped two-component Gross-Pitaevskill equations,a time-dependent dispersion relation is obtained analytically by means of the modified lens-type transformation and linear stability analysis.It is shown that a modulational unstable time scale exists for trapped two-component BECs.The modulational properties-which are determined by the wave number,external trapping parameter,intraand inter-species atomic interactions-are modified significantly.The analytical results are confirmed by direct numerical simulation.Our results provide a criterion for judging the occurrence of instability of the trapped two-component BECs in experiment.

文摘Viscosity is an important physical property of blast furnace slags and has a great influence on blast furnace operations. Because of time consumption and difficulties encountered during high temperature experimental measurement, viscosity data are also limited, so a rea-sonable and accurate estimation model is required to provide the data for controlling and optimizing the blast furnace process. In the present study a viscosity model was proposed for blast furnace slags. In the model the activation energy was calculated by the optical basicity cor-rected for cations required for the charge compensation of , and the temperature dependence was described by the Weymann-Frenkel equation. The estimated viscosity values of the CaO-Al2O3-SiO2, CaO-Al2O3-SiO2-MgO, and CaO-Al2O3-SiO2-MgO-TiO2 systems fit well with experiment data, with the mean deviation less than 25%.

文摘The single influence of capillary porosity and coupling effects of absolute basicity and capillary porosity on concrete carbonation were investigated. The experimental results showed that carbonation rate of concrete at a given absolute basicity (AB) increased moderately with the increase of the porosity ranging from 6.2% to 9.25%, and increased rapidly with porosity from 9.25% to 12.8%.The coupling effect mainly embodied in disappeared mutation point of capillary porosity, and the distributing regions of carbonation depth were clearly partitioned in the coupling influence of absolute basicity and capillary porosity. A design method on carbonation related durability of concrete based on the coupling effects was proposed.

文摘It is shown that the two-component Camassa-Holm and Hunter-Saxton systems are geometrically integrable, namely they describe pseudo-spherical surfaces. As a consequence, their infinite number of conservation laws are directly constructed. In addition, a class of nonlocal symmetries depending on the pseudo-potentials are obtained.

文摘In this article, we consider a two-component nonlinear shallow water system, which includes the famous 2-component Camassa-Holm and Degasperis-Procesi equations as special cases. The local well-posedess for this equations is established. Some sufficient conditions for blow-up of the solutions in finite time are given. Moreover, by separation method, the self-similar solutions for the nonlinear shallow water equations are obtained, and which local or global behavior can be determined by the corresponding Emden equation.

文摘The paper deals with analytical models of the elastic energy gradient Wsq representing an energy barrier. The energy barrier is a surface integral of the elastic energy density Wq. The elastic energy density is induced by thermal stresses acting in an isotropic spherical particle (q = p) with the radius R and in a cubic cell of an isotropic matrix (q = m). The spherical particle and the matrix are components of a multi-particle-matrix system representing a model system applicable to a real two-component material of a precipitation-matrix type. The multi-particle-matrix system thus consists of periodically distributed isotropic spherical particles and an isotropic infinite matrix. The infinite matrix is imaginarily divided into identical cubic cells with a central spherical particle in each of the cubic cells. The dimension d of the cubic cell then corresponds to an inter-particle distance. The parameters R, d along with the particle volume fraction v = v(R, d) as a function of R, d represent micro- structural characteristics of a real two-component material. The thermal stresses are investigated within the cubic cell, and accordingly are functions of the microstructural charac- teristics. The thermal stresses originate during a cooling pro- cess as a consequence of the difference am - ap in thermal expansion coefficients between the matrix and the particle, am and ap, respectively. The energy barrier Wsq is used for the determination of the thermal-stress induced strengthening aq. The strengthening represents resistance against com- pressive or tensile mechanical loading for am - ap 〉 0 or am - ap 〈 0. respectively.

文摘The effect of top slag basicity on quality of steel treated with SiFe and SiCaBa alloy as exothermic agent in chemical heating was studied.These experiments were carried out in MoSi_2 laboratory furnace with 0.2 kg molten steel for equilibrium test and 2 kg molten steel for simulation test respectively.These results showed that the adjusting basicity of top slag with CaO is effective to prevent rephosphorization and resulphurization,and it is possible to dephosphorize and desulphurize and remove the inclusions from molten steel when basicity R of the top slag is adjusted to 2.0 — 3.10,and SiCaBa alloy is better than SiFe alloy in this relation.

文摘A simple model for estimating the rate constant between CO2-CO gas and molten slag containing iron oxides was developed using optical basicity only. In this model, the temperature dependence of the rate constant can be described by the Arrhenius law, and the activation energy can be expressed with a linear function of the slag's optical basicity. The model was applied to some molten slag systems, such as FeO, FeO-CaO, FeO-SiO2, FeO-Na2O, FeO-CaO-SiO2, FeO-SiO2-P2O5, FeO-SiOE-Na2O, and FeO-CaO-SiOE-P2O5. A comparison between the predicted results and measured data showed that the model worked well.

文摘At low basicity and low temperature, the dephosphorization behavior and phosphorus distribution ratio(LP) between slag and molten steel in the double slag and remaining slag process were studied with a 180 t basic oxygen furnace industrial experiment.The dephosphorization slags with different basicities were quantitatively analyzed.At the lower basicity range of 0.9–2.59, both LP and dephosphorization ratio were increased as the basicity of dephosphorization slag increased.Dephosphorization slag consisted of dark gray P-rich, light gray liquid slag,and white Fe-rich phases.With increasing basicity, not only did the morphologies of different phases in the dephosphorization slag change greatly, but the area fractions and P2O5 content of the P-rich phase also increased.The transfer route of P during dephosphorization can be deduced as hot metal → liquid slag phase + Fe-rich phase → P-rich phase.
文摘This paper reports on different physical and optical properties of Nd3+-doped bismuth borate glasses. The glasses containing Nd3+ in (25 - x)Bi2O3:20Li2O:20ZnO:35B2O3:xNd2O3 (where x = 1, 1.5, 2 mol%) have been prepared by melt-quenching method. The amorphous nature of the glasses was confirmed by X-ray diffraction studies. The physical parameters like dielectric constant, refractive index, ionic concentration, oxygen-packing density, inter ionic distance, polaronradius, reflection loss, energy gap, molar refractivity, molar polarizability, electronic polarizability, optical basicity and field strength are computed. On the basis of the measured values of the density and refractive index, the Nd3+ ion concentration in glasses, the polarizability of oxide ions and optical basicity were theoretically determined. The theoretical value of average electronic polarizability and oxide ion polarizability were calculated by using Lorentz-Lorenz formula. Theoretical optical basicity of the glasses is evaluated based on equation proposed by Duffy and Ingram. The metallization criterion has also been calculated on the basis of refractive index and energy gap. The large value of metallization criterion indicates that the glass materials are insulators. The results obtained predict the nature of bonding in the present glasses and provide basis for developing new nonlinear optical material.

文摘Nickel-coated graphite particles and two-component silicone-rubber were compounded to form a conductive composite system. The electrical volume resistivity of the composites were examined and compared under constant tensile strains, cyclic heating-cooling, electric field and repeated cyclic tensile strains in order to study the mechanism of electrical conductivity behaviors of the conductive composites under stress, temperature and current. The results showed that a peak value of the electrical resistivity appeared previously and then gradually increasing with increasing tensile strain. The electrical resistivity displayed positive temperature coefficient effect during the temperature increasing and decreasing. Applying 5A direct current to the conductive composites lesulted in an increase in the electrical resistance immediately, but no changes were detected under lower currents. Under the repeated cyclic strain, the peak value of the electrical resistivity of each cycle increased with the test cycle. All the electrical resistivity changes were attributed to the conductive networks broken-up and rebuilt in the conductive composites.
