The results of this approach show that the key for kicking off the Cu(0)-mediated NIPAM RDRPs is to ensure sufficient Cu~I at the very beginning, and the key to achieve a well-controlled chain growth is to provide adequate deactivation strength during the polymerization process. For NIPAM, which has a high propagation rate constant, the deactivation control can be effectively enhanced by extra adding deactivator(i.e., Cu~II) to the system. Moreover, a low reaction temperature(4 ℃) is necessary in the controlled synthesis of higher MW poly(Nisopropylacrylamide)(PNIPAM) to avoid the compromise in control caused by the phase transition from its lower critical solution temperature(LCST). Through this new kinetically controlled strategy, PNIPAMs with well-defined structure, narrow molecular weight distributions(MWDs) and varied MWs were successfully achieved.展开更多

The impact of nano ZSM‐5 on product selectivity, reaction conversion and catalyst lifetime were compared with micro‐sized ZSM‐5. The application of nano ZSM‐5 not only increased the catalyst lifetime, but also gave more stability for light olefins selectivity. The effects of the reaction parameters of temperature and feedstock on the performance of nano ZSM‐5 were investigated, and showed that high temperature and linear alkanes as feedstock improved light olefin selectivity and conversion.展开更多

It is used by most of the refineries in China as fuel or simply burned in atmosphere. Few refineries make good use of the dry gas, so the precious ethylene resource in the dry gas is wasted. In this article, the possibility of catalytic conversion of ethylene to C3, C4, and some high molecular weight hydrocarbons in a fixed bed micro-reactor using LTB-1 catalyst, with pure ethylene as feedstock was studied. Effects of reaction temperature, reaction pressure, and feedstock flow rate, on the conversion of ethylene and the distribution of products were investigated to determine the proper reaction parameters to be used in practice. Good results indicate that this study may provide a new way of using the ethylene resource in the FCC dry gas.展开更多

The effect of experimental parameters, including the contents of PTFE, nitrogen pressure, preheating, and raw materials distribution forms were investigated. The results show that the products are β-SiC with equiaxed grains. The average grain size is less than 200 nm. The powders loaded loosely promote reaction heat dispersing, resulting in small grains. High purity β-SiC powders are obtained when the PTFE content is as low as 5wt%, which simplifies the process and decreases the cost effectively. The ceramic sintered from the obtained β-SiC powders presents the hardness of 22.20 GPa, the bending strength as high as 715.15 MPa and the fracture toughness of 8.179 MPa·m^1/2, which are higher than those of ceramics fabricated with α-SiC produced by combustion synthesis.展开更多
