The multiple linear regression （MLR） methodwas employed todevelop the quantitative structure property relationship （QSPR） model equations for thedecoloration and mineralization of azodyes. Moreover, the predictive ability of the QSPR model equationswas assessed using Leave-one-out （LOO） and cross-validation （CV） methods. Additionally, the effect of Fe content of catalyst and the sodium chloride inwater on QSPR model equationswere also investigated. The results indicated that the heterogeneous photo-Fentondegradation of the azodyeswithdifferent structureswas conducted in the presence of the amidoximated PAN fiber Fe complex. The QSPR model equations for thedyedecoloration and mineralizationwere successfullydeveloped using MLR technique. MW/S （molecularweightdivided by the number of sulphonate groups） and N N=N （the number of azo linkage） are considered as the most importantdetermining factor for thedyedegradation and mineralization, and there is a significant negative correlation between MW/S or N N=N anddegradation percentage or total organic carbon （TOC） removal. Moreover, LOO and CV analysis suggested that the obtained QSPR model equations have the better prediction ability. The variation in Fe content of catalyst and the addition of sodium chloridedid not alter the nature of the QSPR model equations.展开更多

The advanced tested technologies were employed to characterize the composition and structure of as-prepared complex. Scanning electron microscopy( SEM) image shows that as-prepared complex has a layer structure. Transmission electron microscopy( TEM) image presents that the shape of MBBAL-Eu( III) complex is similar to oval; the size is in the range of 20-50 nm. The thermogravimetric analysis( TGA) curves of MBBAL-Eu( III) complex reveal that as-prepared complex has good thermal stability. The PET luminescence fibers with MBBAL-Eu( III) complex were prepared through meltspinning and electrospun methods. The results prove that asprepared fibers with MBBAL-Eu( III) complex have good luminescent properties and show bright red light.展开更多

The apparent morphology, composition, thermal stability and fluorescent property of the rare earth complex were measured by TEM, Element analysis, IR, TG and Fluorescence spectrometer. The results indicated that this rare earth complex has sphere-like morphology and its diameter was about 100 nm. The complex has good thermal stability due to the strong coordination between the Eu^3＋ ions and the ligands. Based on the composition analysis, the complex structure formula was： Eu （HOC6 H4 COI）3 （phen） ·H2O Fluorescence spectra showed that the rare earth complex emission peaks were corresponding to the transition of ^5D0→7FJ（J=0,1,2,4）,. and the highest intensity fluorescence peak was at 617 nm. The luminescent fiber was prepared by blending melt-spinning with rare earth complex and polypropylene resin. It also has a good luminescent quality, which the strongest emission peak was at 619 nm.

The regularity is investigated and the equation of the movement of fibers on the surface of the tooth of the sampling drum headset is obtained. It was found that the dependences of the movement of fibers along the tooth at different angles of inclination, the distribution of fiber tension along the arc, and the distribution of fiber speeds in the region of the sampling arc have an increase property. As a result of the analysis of the tension and speed of the fibers, it was found that with the increase in the sampling zone, the tension force and speed of the fiber increase.展开更多

METHODS:Thirty six patients with a history of unilateral amblyopia and thirty two children who had emmetropia without amblyopia were included in this study. In this institutional study, 36 eyes of 36 patients with amblyopia (AE), 36 fellow eyes without amblyopia (FE), and 32 eyes of 32 normal subjects (NE) were included. RNFL, GCC and macular thickness measurements were performed with RS-3000 OCT Retina Scan (Nidek Inc CA. USA). RESULTS:The mean global thicknesses of the RNFL were 113.22 ±21.47, 111.57 ±18.25, 109.96 ±11.31μm in the AE, FE, and NE, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference for mean global RNFL thickness among the eyes (P =0.13). The mean thicknesses of the macula were 258.25±18.31, 258.75±19.54, 248.62±10.57μm in the AE, FE and NE, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference for thickness of macula among the eyes (P =0.06). The GCC was investigated into two parts:superior and inferior. The mean thicknesses of superior GCC were 102.57 ±13.32, 103.32 ±10.64, 100.52 ± 5.88μm in the AE, FE, and NE, respectively. The mean thicknesses of inferior GCC were 103.82 ±12.60, 107.82 ± 12.33, 105.86±10.79μm in the AE, FE and NE, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference for thickness of superior and inferior GCC between the eyes (P =0.63, P =0.46). ·CONCLUSION:The macular thicknesses of AE and FE were greater than the NE, although it was not statistically significant. Amblyopia does not seem to have a profound effect on the RNFL, macula and GCC.展开更多

The multi-layered composites were 6 mm thick and each consisted of a 2 mm thick layer of recycled α-Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>/PCL composites at various loadings (5 wt% - 25 wt%) of 16.2 nm recycled α-Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> nanofiller, placed between two layers of 2 mm thick OPEFB fiber/PCL composites blended at a fixed ratio of 7:3. The real (ε') and imaginary (ε") components of the relative complex permittivity were measured using the open-ended coaxial probe technique and the values obtained were applied as inputs for the Finite Element Method to calculate the reflection coefficient magnitudes from which the reflection loss (RL) properties were determined. Both ε' and ε" increased linearly with recycled α-Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> nanofiller content and the values of ε' varied between 3.0 and 3.9 while the ε" values ranged between 0.26 and 0.64 within 1 - 4 GHz. The RL (dB) showed the most prominent values within the 1.38 - 1.46 GHz band with a minimum of -38 dB attained by the 25 wt% composite. Another batch of minimum values occurred in the 2.39 - 3.49 GHz range with the lowest of -25 dB at 2.8 GHz. The recycled α-Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>/OPEFB fiber/PCL multi-layered composites are promising materials that can be engineered for solving noise problems in the 1 - 4 GHz range.展开更多

The relationships between real and imaginary parts of the graphene CRI and temperature are obtained through investigating the dip wavelength and intensity of the MZI interference spectrum changing with temperature, respectively. The temperature effect of CRI of the graphene is also analyzed theoretically. Both experimental and theoretical studies show that the real part and imaginary part of the CRI nonlinearly decrease and increase with temperature increasing, respectively. This graphene-coated in-fiber MZI structure also possesses the advantages of easy fabrication, miniaturization, low cost and robustness. It has potential applications in nanomaterial-based optic devices for communication and sensing.展开更多
