The morphology was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), respectively. The corrosion resistance was evaluated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The results showed that the adipic acid was absorbed at the electrolyte/anodic layer interface during anodizing. The corrosion rate of anodic film decreased and the film thickness increased. The film was uniform and compact especially at the film/substrate interface. After sealing procedure, anodic film formed with the addition of adipic acid exhibited improved dielectric property and corrosion resistance in aggressive environment.展开更多

Macrokinetics of the main and side reactions were identified to minimize corrosion and coking to prolong the operation period, to increase the yield of adiponitrile and to improve the design of the reactor. Macrokinetic equations of ammoniation-neutralization of adipic acid and dehydration were of first-order to adipic concentration cB≥3.5% and of second order for cB≥3.5%. Catalyst H3PO4 reduced the activation energy of neutralization and dehydration reactions of adipic acid and was significantly important for the second step of dehydration to produce adiponitrile.展开更多

All these data were regressed by 2h, NRTL, Wilson, and the modified Wilson models. For the study of six, 2h, NRTL, and the modified Wilson models were found to provide an accurate mathematical representation of the experimental results, with overall average absolute relative deviations between measured and calculated values as 1.74%, 2.06%, and 3.06%, respectively. The results showed that the λh model is the most suitable for description of the solid-liquid equilibrium containing adipic acid.展开更多

It was revealed that the polymorphism of PBA can be regulated by the blend ratio even in a non-isothermal crystallization process. The results demonstrate that high temperature favors fiat-on α crystals, while low temperature contributes to edge-on β crystals. It was also found that the effect of blend ratio on the crystallization mechanism of PBA is well coincident with that of the crystallization temperature. The increment of PBS content in the PBS/PBA blend gives rise to more β-form crystals of PBA. For those PBS/PBA blends with low PBA content, the interlamellar phase segregation of PBA makes its molecular chains so difficult to diffuse from one isolated microdomain to another that high crystallization temperature and sufficiently long crystallization time will be required if the PBA α-type crystals are targeted.展开更多

Upon addition of PPZn, the crystallization temperature and crystallinity of PEA in the non-isothermal crystallization process increased significantly. Analysis of crystallization kinetics by Avrami equation suggests that the crystallization time shortened greatly and crystallization rate increased markedly after addition of PPZn. In the presence of PPZn, the spherulite size decreased and spherulite density increased significantly. It suggests that PPZn is an efficient nucleating agent for the crystallization of PEA. The accelerated crystallization in the presence of PPZn is mainly attributed to the epitaxial nucleation of PEA crystals on the surface of PPZn crystals, that is, a perfect lattice matching between PEA crystal and PPZn crystal occurs.展开更多

The results show that the PE influences the crystallization of PEA strongly, which results in an epitaxial growth of PEA with well ordered structure. At the boundary of the PE substrate, a transcrystalline PEA layer is observed. Fine structural observation illustrates that the PEA grows on the PE substrate in edge- on lamellae with fixed orientation. Electron diffraction demonstrates that the epitaxial organization of PEA on PE occurs with both polymer chains parallel, which leads to the (00l) PEA diffractions inclined ±23.5° to the chain direction of PE crystals. Combining the real space morphological observation and electron diffraction results, it is concluded that the epitaxial PEA edge-on lamellae are folded in the {00l} lattice planes.展开更多

A depression of the equilibrium melting point of PVDF was observed. From the melting point data of PVDF, a negative but quite small value of the interaction parameter ?PVDF-PEA is derived using the Flory-Huggins equation, implying that PVDF shows miscibility with PEA to some extent. Nonisothermal and isothermal crystallization kinetics suggest that the crystallization rate of PVDF decreases with increasing the amount of PEA, and a contrary trend was found when PEA crystallizes with the increase of the amount of PVDF. It was further disclosed that the blend ratio and crystallization temperature affect the texture of PVDF spherulites greatly, which determines the subsequent crystallization of PEA. At high temperatures, e.g. 150 ℃, the band spacing of PVDF spherulites increases with the addition of PEA content and the spherulitic structure becomes more open. In this case, spherulitic crystallization of PEA is not observed for all blend compositions. At low temperatures, e.g. 130 ℃, for the PEA-rich blends, the interpenetrated structures are eventually formed by the penetration of the spherulites of PEA growing within the pre-existing PVDF spherulites.展开更多

It was found that both the Teflon surface structure and the PBA polymorphic structure are the determining factors to induce epitaxial crystallization. The oriented Teflon film was able to induce epitaxial crystallization of PBA α crystal, while the non-oriented Teflon did not induce any epitaxial crystallization of PBA. Epitaxial crystallization did not occurred for PBA β crystals between neither the oriented nor the non-oriented Teflon films. The enzymatic degradation rate of PBA films was not determined by the epitaxial crystallization, in fact it was still dependent on the polymorphic crystal structure of PBA. The morphological changes of PBA films after enzymatic degradation confirmed again that the epitaxial crystallization only occurred for the PBA film with α crystal structure which was produced by being sandwiched between oriented Teflon films, and it happened only on the surface of PBA films.展开更多

The results demonstrate that the γ-phase PVDF spherulites consist of the lamellae exhibiting a highly curved scroll-like morphology and develop preferentially in PEA-rich blend. With increasing PEA concentration, the scroll diameter increases and the scrolls are better separated from each other. PEA crystallizes first in the interspherulitic region and transcrystalline layer develops. Subsequently, the transcrystalline layer of PEA continues to grow within theγ-phase PVDF spherulites, e.g., in the region between the scrolls, until impinging on other PEA transcrystalline layers or spherulites. The crystallization kinetics results indicate that the growth rate of PEA crystals in the intraspherulitic region of γ-phase PVDF shows a positive correlation with content of PEA, but a negative one with the crystallization temperature of γ-phase PVDF.展开更多

文摘Adipic acid is a dicarboxylic acid of great industrial importance,mainly used in the production of nylon-6,6 and polyurethane.The use of nitric acid as an oxidant in the industrial production of adipic acid poses significant carbon footprint to the environment.Clean adipic acid synthesis methods using a heterogeneous catalyst with H2O2 as oxidant and water as solvent have potential advantages of low catalyst cost,easy synthesis and recovery,cleanness and environmental protection.In this work,hexagonal mesoporous silicate materials were synthesized by a sol–gel method and evaluated for cyclohexanol/cyclohexanone oxidation to adipic acid.The physical and chemical properties of Fe-HMS were characterized by XRD,HR-TEM,BET and UV–Vis.The experimental results showed that Fe-HMS materials show pore sizes ranging from 2–3 nm.W-and Mo-based polyoxometalates were also evaluated and compared to the Fe-based HMS catalysts.To improve the adipic acid yield,the influence of the transition metal as well as the effect of metal loading,reaction temperature and catalyst amount on the catalytic performances of Fe-HMS have been investigated in details.When Si/Fe atomic ratio=100,Fe-HMS catalyst shows the highest activity,with a cyclohexanone conversion of 92.3%and adipic acid selectivity of 29.4%.The reaction pathway of cyclohexanone oxidation was further proposed based on experimental data.

文摘The adipic acid is an important intermediate in the production of nylon,polyurethane and polye ster resin s.The industrial approach for preparing adipic acid is through the liquid catalytic oxidation of KA oil with nitric acid.In this work,a comprehensive model is developed for this reaction based on the kinetic study conducted in a continuous flow tubular reactor.The kinetic model fits well with the experimental results across the experimental conditions,and the average relative error between the calculated and experimental values is 5.7%.Results show that there was an induction period at the early stage of reaction.Moreover,it is found that at temperature range of 328-358 K,the formation rate of adipic acid strongly dependents on the temperature and nitric acid concentration.The developed model is used to predict the yield of adipic acid at 359-368 K.The work in this study could provide much knowledge for industrial tubular reactor design.

文摘The miscibility, isothermal crystallization kinetics and morphology of the poly(vinylidene fluoride)(PVDF)/poly(ethylene adipate)(PEA) blends have been studied by differential scanning calorimetry(DSC), optical microscopy(OM) and scanning electron microscopy(SEM). A depression of the equilibrium melting point of PVDF was observed. From the melting point data of PVDF, a negative but quite small value of the interaction parameter ?PVDF-PEA is derived using the Flory-Huggins equation, implying that PVDF shows miscibility with PEA to some extent. Nonisothermal and isothermal crystallization kinetics suggest that the crystallization rate of PVDF decreases with increasing the amount of PEA, and a contrary trend was found when PEA crystallizes with the increase of the amount of PVDF. It was further disclosed that the blend ratio and crystallization temperature affect the texture of PVDF spherulites greatly, which determines the subsequent crystallization of PEA. At high temperatures, e.g. 150 ℃, the band spacing of PVDF spherulites increases with the addition of PEA content and the spherulitic structure becomes more open. In this case, spherulitic crystallization of PEA is not observed for all blend compositions. At low temperatures, e.g. 130 ℃, for the PEA-rich blends, the interpenetrated structures are eventually formed by the penetration of the spherulites of PEA growing within the pre-existing PVDF spherulites.

文摘Oriented and non-oriented Teflon films, which were found to have the same crystalline structure, but different surface morphologies, were used to sandwich poly(butylene adipate) (PBA) films during isothermal crystallization. It was found that both the Teflon surface structure and the PBA polymorphic structure are the determining factors to induce epitaxial crystallization. The oriented Teflon film was able to induce epitaxial crystallization of PBA α crystal, while the non-oriented Teflon did not induce any epitaxial crystallization of PBA. Epitaxial crystallization did not occurred for PBA β crystals between neither the oriented nor the non-oriented Teflon films. The enzymatic degradation rate of PBA films was not determined by the epitaxial crystallization, in fact it was still dependent on the polymorphic crystal structure of PBA. The morphological changes of PBA films after enzymatic degradation confirmed again that the epitaxial crystallization only occurred for the PBA film with α crystal structure which was produced by being sandwiched between oriented Teflon films, and it happened only on the surface of PBA films.

文摘The effects of PEA on the )γ-phase PVDF crystal structure and the crystallization of PEA within the pre-existing γ-phase PVDF spherulites have been investigated by optical microscopy (OM), infrared spectroscopy (IR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results demonstrate that the γ-phase PVDF spherulites consist of the lamellae exhibiting a highly curved scroll-like morphology and develop preferentially in PEA-rich blend. With increasing PEA concentration, the scroll diameter increases and the scrolls are better separated from each other. PEA crystallizes first in the interspherulitic region and transcrystalline layer develops. Subsequently, the transcrystalline layer of PEA continues to grow within theγ-phase PVDF spherulites, e.g., in the region between the scrolls, until impinging on other PEA transcrystalline layers or spherulites. The crystallization kinetics results indicate that the growth rate of PEA crystals in the intraspherulitic region of γ-phase PVDF shows a positive correlation with content of PEA, but a negative one with the crystallization temperature of γ-phase PVDF.

文摘Adipic acid is an important petrochemical product,and its production process emits a high concentration of greenhouse gas N_2 O.This paper aims to provide quantitative references for relevant authorities to formulate greenhouse gas control roadmaps.The forecasting method of this paper is consistent with the published national inventory in terms of caliber.Based on the N_2 O abatement technical parameters of adipic acid and the production trend,this paper combines the scenario analysis and provides a measurement of comprehensive N_2 O abatement effect of the entire industry in China.Four future scenarios are assumed.The baseline scenario(BAUS) is a frozen scenario.Three emission abatement scenarios(ANAS,SNAS,and ENAS) are assumed under different strength of abatement driving parameters.The results show that China's adipic acid production process can achieve increasingly significant N_2 O emission abatement effects.Compared to the baseline scenario,by 2030,the N_2 O emission abatements of the three emission abatement scenarios can reach 207-399 kt and the emission abatement ratios can reach 32.5%-62.6%.By 2050,the N_2 O emission abatements for the three emission abatement scenarios can reach 387-540 kt and the emission abatement ratios can reach 71.4%-99.6%.

文摘Poly(glycolic acid)(PGA)is derived from glycolide obtained by fermenting pineapples or sugarcane,which has excellent gas barrier properties and a small carbon footprint.PGA is a potential substitute for the current aluminum-plastic composite films used in high barrier packaging applications.However,its poor ductility and narrow processing window limit its application in food packaging.Herein,poly(butylene succinate-co-butylene adipate)(PBSA)was used to fabricate PGA/PBSA blend films through an in situ fibrillation technique and blown film extrusion.Under the elongational flow field used during the extrusion process,a unique hierarchical structure based on the PBSA nanofibrils and interfacially oriented PGA crystals was obtained.This structure enhances the strength,ductility and gas barrier properties of the PGA/PBSA blend film.In addition,an epoxy chain extender(ADR4468)was used as a compatibilizer to further enhance the interfacial adhesion between PGA and PBSA.70PGA/0.7ADR exhibited a very low oxygen permeability(2.34×10^(-4)Barrer)with significantly high elongating at break(604.4%),tensile strength(47.4 MPa),and transparency,which were superior to those of petroleum-based polymers.Thus,the 70PGA/0.7ADR blown films could satisfy the requirements for most instant foods such as coffee,peanuts,and fresh meat.
