[Method] Taking three years old apple, pear, peach and grape trees as the materials, the author studied the absorption condition of these trees to six kinds of zinc substances and their security. The sealed curative effects of the injected zinc substances which were harmful and could be absorbed steadily by the fruit trees against rosette disease were studied. [ Result] The results of absorption condition and security experiments showed that only zinc-mmnonia complex could be absorbed steadily and safely throughout four seasons. When apple, pear, peach and grape trees affected by rosette disease were injected with zinc- ammonia complex, the leaves of those trees started to grow obviously after 10 d; the internodes of diseased branches elongated, the leaves turned bigger, and the ap- pearance of branches became normal after about 25 d. [ Conclusion] The curative effect of perforated injection of zinc-ammonia complex on fruit tree rosette disease was remarkable. The results also provided a new way for the cure of deficiency diseases of other trace elements.展开更多

The structure of black nickel was examined by means of X-ray diffraction technique. The results show that in the scanning region, two oxidization current peaks are observed during the positive sweep, one of which is attributed to a valence state transformation of Ni(OH)2 to high valence nickel compound(black nickel), and the other is caused by nitrogen evolution. During the formation process of black nickel, γ-NiOOH probably tends to self-discharge with water to form α-Ni(OH)2. As a result, it is observed that Ipa/Ipc(Ipa—anodic peak current; Ipc—cathodic peak current) maintains at a constant with the scanning rate increasing. Two reduction current peaks in cyclic voltammogram and two potential plateaus in galvanostatic reduction curve for black nickel are ascribed to the reduction of various oxidization states of nickel oxide. The potential plateaus at about 0.75 V reach the maximum in galvanostatic reduction curves. Black nickel presents amorphous structure.展开更多
