For the AZ91D and the AZ91D-xCe magnesium alloys, changing the sizes of the chips in the range of 58 - 270 μm has a limited influence on ignition point, however, the shift of the content of Ce has much effect on ignition point. Increasing the Ce content, x from 0.15 to 0.25, the ignition point increases with increasing of Ce; however, x from 0.25 to 0.45, the ignition point decreases with increasing of Ce. By the addition of Ce of 0.25 %. the ignition point is raised by 43℃.展开更多

In this work,common filter paper and Ag@Si O2 core-shell nanoparticles(NP) have been utilized to fabricate SERS chips based on shell-isolated nanoparticle-enhanced Raman spectroscopy(SHINERS). The SERS performance of the chips for POCT applications was systematically investigated. We used crystal violet as the model molecule to study the influence of the size of the Ag core and the thickness of the Si O2 coating layer on the SERS activity and then the morphology optimized Ag@Si O2 core-shell NPs was employed to detect thiram. By utilizing the smartphone as a miniaturized Raman spectral analyzer, high SERS sensitivity of thiram with a detection limit of 10^-9 M was obtained. The study on the stability of the SERS chips shows that a Si O2 shell of 3 nm can effectively protect the as-prepared SERS chips against oxidation in ambient atmosphere without seriously weakening the SERS sensitivity. Our results indicated that the SERS chips by SHINERS had great potential of practical application, such as pesticide residues detection in POCT.展开更多
