文摘Some active metal oxides(Al_(2)O_(3),TiO_(2),and Cr_(2)O_(3))were selected as dopants to the Al_(2)O_(3)-based ceramic shells for investment casting of K417G superalloy.The effects of dopant types and contents(0,2,5,and 8 wt.%)on the wettability and interfacial reaction between the alloy and shell were investigated by a sessile-drop experiment.The results show that increasing the Al_(2)O_(3) doping contents(0−8 wt.%)reduces the porosity(21.74%−10.08%)and roughness(3.22−1.34μm)of the shell surface.The increase in Cr_(2)O_(3) dopant content(2−8 wt.%)further exacerbates the interfacial reaction,leading to an increase in the thickness of the reaction layer(2.6−3.1μm)and a decrease in the wetting angle(93.9°−91.0°).The addition of Al_(2)O_(3) and TiO_(2) dopants leads to the formation of Al_(2)TiO_(5) composite oxides in the reaction products,which effectively inhibits the interfacial reaction.The increase in TiO_(2) dopant contents(0−8 wt.%)further promotes the formation of Al_(2)TiO_(5),which decreases the thickness of the interfacial reaction layer(3.9−1.2μm)and increases the wetting angle(95.0°−103.8°).The introduced dopants enhance the packing density of the shell surface,while simultaneously suppress the diffusion of active metal elements from the alloy matrix to the interface.

文摘The Glauber/eikonal model is a widely used tool for studying intermediate-and high-energy nuclear reactions.When calculating the Glauber/eikonal model phase shift functions,the optical limit approximation(OLA)is often used.The OLA neglects the multiple scattering of the constituent nucleons in the projectile and target nuclei.However,the nucleon-target version of the Glauber model(the NTG model)proposed by Abu-Ibrahim and Suzuki includes multiple scattering effects between the projectile nucleons and target nuclei.The NTG model was found to improve the description of the elastic scattering angular distributions and total reaction cross sections of some light heavy-ion systems with respect to the OLA.In this work,we study the single-nucleon removal reactions(SNRRs)induced by carbon isotopes on ^(12)C and ^(9)Be targets using both the NTG model and the OLA.Reduction factors(RFs)of the single-nucleon spectroscopic factors were obtained by comparing the experimental and theoretical SNRR cross sections.On average,the RFs obtained with the NTG model were smaller than those obtained using the OLA by 7.8%,in which the average difference in one-neutron removal was 10.6% and that in one-proton removal was 4.2%.However,the RFs were still strongly dependent on the neutron-proton asymmetryΔS of the projectile nuclei,even when the NTG model was used.

文摘In this study,the pure erosion behaviour of pure iron and its erosion-corrosion behaviour under different anodic polarization currents were investigated in various cathodic reactions(oxygen reduction,hydrogen ion reduction,and water reduction)using a cylindrical stirring system.The corrosion-enhanced erosion(C-E)rates were determined for each condition.The results revealed that pure iron displayed similar pure erosion behaviour across all three cathodic reactions.When the cathodic reactions involve hydrogen ion reduction or water reduction,the erosion-corrosion of pure iron manifested as uniform damage,with the reduction in hardness being the main cause of the C-E in this case.Conversely,in the case of oxy-gen reduction reaction as the cathodic reaction,the erosion-corrosion presented as pitting damage,with the reduction in hardness resulting from localized concentration of anodic current and the formation of easily worn protruding flaky iron structures at the edges of the pits as the main mechanism of the C-E.Moreover,linear and exponential relationships were found between the C-E rate and the anodic current density for uniform damage and pitting damage,respectively.Finally,the concept of surface equivalent hardness was proposed,along with the establishment of a mathematical model for surface equivalent hardness based on the relationships between the C-E rate and the anodic current density.Utilizing the surface equivalent hardness enables the evaluation of the erosion rate on material surfaces considering the coupled effect.

文摘Based on the Skyrme energy density functional and reaction Q-value,this study proposed an effective nucleus-nucleus poten-tial for describing the capture barrier in heavy-ion fusion processes.The 443 extracted barrier heights were well reproduced with a root-mean-square(RMS)error of 1.53 MeV,and the RMS deviations with respect to 144 time-dependent Hartree-Fock capture barrier heights were only 1.05 MeV.Coupled with the Siwek-Wilczyński formula,wherein three parameters were determined by the proposed effective potentials,the measured capture cross sections at energies around the barriers were reasonably well reproduced for several fusion reactions induced by nearly spherical nuclei as well as by nuclei with large deformations,such as^(154)Sm and^(238)U.The shallow capture pockets and small values of the average barrier radii resulted in the reduction of the capture cross sections for 52,54Cr-and 64 Ni-induced reactions,which were related to the synthesis of new super-heavy nuclei.

文摘Additive manufacturing(AM)methods have garnered considerable attention owing to their flexibility in fabricating complex parts with desirable mechanical properties.However,the poor surface quality of the resulting metal parts remains a severe challenge for the applications.Here,a novel dual-additive synergy strategy is presented,which simultaneously enhances material removal efficiency and regulates electrode surface reactions during electrochemical polishing(ECP)of AM AlSi10Mg.Theoretical studies and experimental characterizations confirm that NaF promotes selective dissolution at the peaks,while glucose acts as a stabilizer for the surface valleys.This approach effectively facilitates the selective removal of surface protrusions,achieving a smoother and more uniform surface finish,resulting in a surface roughness reduction of approximately 86%,compared to a 63%reduction without additives.This study not only provides a new approach for optimizing surface quality of AM AlSi10Mg but also offers new insights into electrolyte design and the stabilization of metal anodes.
文摘Magnetohydrodynamic(MHD)radiative chemically reactive mixed convection flow of a hybrid nanofluid(Al_(2)O_(3)–Cu/H_(2)O)across an inclined,porous,and stretched sheet is examined in this study,along with its unsteady heat and mass transport properties.The hybrid nanofluid’s enhanced heat transfer efficiency is a major benefit in high-performance engineering applications.It is composed of two separate nanoparticles suspended in a base fluid and is chosen for its improved thermal properties.Thermal radiation,chemical reactions,a transverse magnetic field,surface stretching with time,injection or suction through the porous medium,and the effect of inclination,which introduces gravity-induced buoyancy forces,are all important physical phenomena that are taken into account in the analysis.A system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations(ODEs)is derived from the governing partial differential equations for mass,momentum,and energy by applying suitable similarity transformations.This simplifies the modeling procedure.The bvp4c solver in MATLAB is then used to numerically solve these equations.Different governing parameters modify temperature,concentration,and velocity profiles in graphs and tables.These factors include radiation intensity,chemical reaction rate,magnetic field strength,unsteadiness,suction/injection velocity,inclination angle,and nanoparticle concentration.A complex relationship between buoyancy and magnetic factors makes hybrid nanofluids better at heat transmission than regular ones.Thermal systems including cooling technologies,thermal coatings,and electronic heat management benefit from these findings.

文摘Brown carbon(BrC)has attracted widespread attention because of its strong absorption of solar radiation in the ultraviolet-visible wavelength range,which causes adverse impacts on human health.Originally,BrC was a physically defined class of substances.However,current research has gradually shifted towards the identification of its chemical groups,because its light-absorbing capability,chemical properties and health effects mainly depend on the chemical composition of its chromophores.Therefore,this review mainly focuses on the chemical understanding of BrC based on chromophores,and the secondary formation mechanism of chromophores,photosensitized reactions,and human health effects of BrC were detailly summarized.Firstly,BrC chromophores are divided into five categories:nitrogen-heterocycles,nitrogen-chain,aromatic species,oligomers and sulfur-containing organic compounds.Different chromophore precursor species exhibit variations,and their formation mechanisms are also distinct.Secondly,BrC can trigger the production of secondary organic aerosol(SOA)precursors or cause SOA growth because BrC is an important component of light-absorbing particles formed during incomplete combustion of biomass and fossil fuels,potentially exerting adverse effects on human health.Finally,developing sufficiently separated methods for BrC and refining algorithms and machine learning can lead to a more effective understanding of the chemical composition of chromophores,thus enabling better evaluation of the atmospheric effects and health impacts of BrC.In all,this review provides new insights into the categories of BrC chromophores and new advance in secondary formation mechanisms,photosensitized reactions,and human health effects on the basis of chemical structures.

文摘The slow conversion of polyphase in lithium-sulfur(Li-S)batteries not only intensifies the shuttle effect of lithium polysulfides(LiPSs),but also causes the continuous accumulation of inactive sulfur species,resulting in rapid capacity attenuation and sluggish dynamic performance.Herein,the promoting effect of atomic interface stress on sulfur reaction was investigated via CoFe-CoFe_(2)O_(4)heterogeneous nanosheets with a cavity structure.The strain force induced by the in-situ precipitation of Co Fe bimetallic alloy in oxide matrix increased the d-band center,which was conducive to the interaction between catalyst and Li PSs.The sulfur cathode based on this two-dimensional(2D)nanosheet design showed an extremely high capacity of 751 mAh g^(-1)at 4 C.Even with a sulfur loading of 5.55 mg cm^(-2),its area capacity was still as high as 7.15 mAh cm^(-2).Meanwhile,the enhanced stability greatly improved the practical potential of Li-S batteries.

文摘To mitigate the impact of interdiffusion reactions between the silicide slurry and Ta12W alloy substrate during vacuum sintering process on the oxidation resistance of the silicide coating,a micro-arc oxidation pretreatment was employed to construct a Ta_(2)O_(5)ceramic layer on the Ta12W alloy surface.Subsequently,a slurry spraying-vacuum sintering method was used to prepare a Si-Cr-Ti-Zr coating on the pretreated substrate.Comparative studies were conducted on the microstructure,phase composition,and isothermal oxidation resistance(at 1600℃)of the as-prepared coatings with and without the micro-arc oxidation ceramic layer.The results show that the Ta_(2)O_(5)layer prepared at 400 V is more continuous and has smaller pores than that prepared at 350 V.After microarc oxidation pretreatment,the Si-Cr-Ti-Zr coating on Ta12W alloy consists of three distinct layers:an upper layer dominated by Ti_(5)Si_(3),Ta_(5)Si_(3),and ZrSi;a middle layer dominated by TaSi_(2);a coating/substrate interfacial reaction layer dominated by Ta_(5)Si_(3).Both the Si-Cr-Ti-Zr coatings with and without the Ta_(2)O_(5)ceramic layer do not fail after isothermal oxidation at 1600℃for 5 h.Notably,the addition of the Ta2O5 ceramic layer reduces the high-temperature oxidation rate of the coating.

文摘The shortage of CO_(2) source and the challenges associated with the separation of pure CO_(2) have led to a growing interest in the potential utilization of CO_(2)-contained IWG.Therefore,this study has established an acid-rock interaction kinetic model to characterize the long-term interactions between CO_(2)-contained IWG and shale.The findings delineate the reaction process into three phases:during the initial 10 years,solubility trapping predominates,with minimal mineral dissolution.This increases shale porosity,promoting the diffusion and storage range of CO_(2)-contained IWG.Between 10 and 300 years,mineral dissolution/precipitation assumes primacy,with mineral trapping gradually supplanting dissolution.Notably,shale porosity diminishes by a minimum of approximately 40%,effectively inhibiting gas leakage.After 300 years,equilibrium is reached,with rock porosity consistently lower than the initial porosity.Throughout the entire reaction process,as the initial CO_(2) concentration decreases,the initial pH drops from 4.42 to 3.61,resulting in a roughly 20%increase in porosity.Additionally,it is necessary to regulate its concentration to avoid H_(2)S leakage during CO_(2)-contained IWG geological sequestration.And particular attention should be directed towards the risk of gas leakage when the IWG exhibit high levels of SO_(2) or NO_(2).
文摘The poor electrical conductivity of metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)limits their electrocatalytic performance in the oxygen evolution reaction(OER).In this study,a Py@Co-MOF composite material based on pyrene(Py)molecules and{[Co2(BINDI)(DMA)_(2)]·DMA}_(n)(Co-MOF,H4BINDI=N,N'-bis(5-isophthalic acid)naphthalenediimide,DMA=N,N-dimethylacetamide)was synthesized via a one-pot method,leveragingπ-πinteractions between pyrene and Co-MOF to modulate electrical conductivity.Results demonstrate that the Py@Co-MOF catalyst exhibited significantly enhanced OER performance compared to pure Co-MOF or pyrene-based electrodes,achieving an overpotential of 246 mV at a current density of 10 mA·cm^(-2) along with excellent stability.Density functional theory(DFT)calculations reveal that the formation of O*in the second step is the rate-determining step(RDS)during the OER process on Co-MOF,with an energy barrier of 0.85 eV due to the weak adsorption affinity of the OH*intermediate for Co sites.CCDC:2419276.

文摘Proton exchange membrane fuel cells(PEMFCs)constitute a promising avenue for environmentally friendly power generation.However,the reliance on unsustainable platinum-based electrocatalysts used at the electrodes poses challenges to the commercial viability of PEMFCs.Non-platinum group metal(non-PGM)alternatives,like nitrogen-coordinated transition metals in atomic dispersion(M–N–C catalysts),show significant potential.This work presents a comparative study of two distinct sets of Fe–N–C materials,prepared by pyrolyzing hybrid composites of polyaniline(PANI)and iron(Ⅱ)chloride on a hard template.One set uses bipyridine(BPy)as an additional nitrogen source and iron ligand,offering an innovative approach.The findings reveal that the choice of pyrolysis temperature and atmosphere influences the catalyst properties.The use of ammonia in pyrolysis emerges as a crucial parameter for promoting atomic dispersion of iron,as well as increasing surface area and porosity.The optimal catalyst,prepared using BPy and ammonia,exhibits a half-wave potential of 0.834 V in 0.5 M H_(2)SO_(4)(catalyst loading of 0.6 mg cm^(-2)),a mass activity exceeding 3 A g^(-1)and high stability in acidic electrolyte,positioning it as a promising non-PGM structure in the field.

文摘Against the backdrop of escalating global climate change and energy crises,the resource utilization of carbon dioxide(CO_(2)),a major greenhouse gas,has become a crucial pathway for achieving carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals.The hydrogenation of CO_(2)to methanol not only enables carbon sequestration and recycling,but also provides a route to produce high value-added fuels and basic chemical feedstocks,holding significant environmental and economic potential.However,this conversion process is thermodynamically and kinetically limited,and traditional catalyst systems(e.g.,Cu/ZnO/Al_(2)O_(3))exhibit inadequate activity,selectivity,and stability under mild conditions.Therefore,the development of novel high-performance catalysts with precisely tunable structures and functionalities is imperative.Metal-organic frameworks(MOFs),as crystalline porous materials with high surface area,tunable pore structures,and diverse metal-ligand compositions,have the great potential in CO_(2)hydrogenation catalysis.Their structural design flexibility allows for the construction of well-dispersed active sites,tailored electronic environments,and enhanced metal-support interactions.This review systematically summarizes the recent advances in MOF-based and MOF-derived catalysts for CO_(2)hydrogenation to methanol,focusing on four design strategies:(1)spatial confinement and in situ construction,(2)defect engineering and ion-exchange,(3)bimetallic synergy and hybrid structure design,and(4)MOF-derived nanomaterial synthesis.These approaches significantly improve CO_(2)conversion and methanol selectivity by optimizing metal dispersion,interfacial structures,and reaction pathways.The reaction mechanism is further explored by focusing on the three main reaction pathways:the formate pathway(HCOO*),the RWGS(Reverse Water Gas Shift reaction)+CO*hydrogenation pathway,and the trans-COOH pathway.In situ spectroscopic studies and density functional theory(DFT)calculations elucidate the formation and transformation of key intermediates,as well as the roles of active sites,metal-support interfaces,oxygen vacancies,and promoters.Additionally,representative catalytic performance data for MOFbased systems are compiled and compared,demonstrating their advantages over traditional catalysts in terms of CO_(2)conversion,methanol selectivity,and space-time yield.Future perspectives for MOF-based CO_(2)hydrogenation catalysts will prioritize two main directions:structural design and mechanistic understanding.The precise construction of active sites through multi-metallic synergy,defect engineering,and interfacial electronic modulation should be made to enhance catalyst selectivity and stability.In addition,advanced in situ characterization techniques combined with theoretical modeling are essential to unravel the detailed reaction mechanisms and intermediate behaviors,thereby guiding rational catalyst design.Moreover,to enable industrial application,challenges related to thermal/hydrothermal stability,catalyst recyclability,and cost-effective large-scale synthesis must be addressed.The development of green,scalable preparation methods and the integration of MOF catalysts into practical reaction systems(e.g.,flow reactors)will be crucial for bridging the gap between laboratory research and commercial deployment.Ultimately,multi-scale structure-performance optimization and catalytic system integration will be vital for accelerating the industrialization of MOF-based CO_(2)-to-methanol technologies.

文摘The magnetic proximity effect enables interfacial modulation of excitonic and spin-valley properties in transition metal dichalcogenides(TMDs),offering a versatile route toward next-generation spintronic and valleytronic devices.However,the inherently weak photoluminescence(PL)of bright excitons—suppressed by proximity-induced darkening mechanisms—hinders the optical detection of magnetic interactions.Here,we demonstrate substantial exciton emission enhancement in CrOCl/WSe_(2)(HS)and twisted 90°-CrOCl/CrOCl/WSe_(2)(THS)heterostructures by employing plasmonic Au nanopillar arrays to activate surface plasmon polariton(SPP)coupling.The neutral exciton emission intensity is enhanced by factors of 5 and 18 for HS/Au and THS/Au,respectively,with enhancements persisting under high magnetic fields and elevated temperatures(~10-fold in THS/Au).Enabled by this amplification,we observe pronounced Zeeman splitting and modified intervalley relaxation pathways,indicating significant magnetic proximity interactions.Finite-element simulations and first-principles calculations reveal that the enhancement arises from local electromagnetic field concentration and layer-dependent interfacial coupling.Our results establish SPP-assisted PL enhancement as an effective strategy for probing weak magneto-optical signatures,paving the way for detailed exploration of exciton-magnon coupling and interface-driven quantum phenomena in twodimensional(2D)magnetic heterostructures.

文摘The operational efficiency of membrane electrode assemblies in direct liquid fuel cells is critically dependent on the fuel purity in the anode compartment.To address the inherent challenge of fuel mixing problem in alcohol systems,we propose a rational catalyst design strategy focusing on morphological and compositional optimization.Sodium borohydride-derived PtCuMo alloy aerogels(AA)exhibit abundant grain boundary defects,while solvothermally prepared nanowire arrays(NA)maintain excellent single-crystalline characteristics.Density functional theory calculations demonstrate that engineered grain boundaries can effectively broaden the adsorption energy window for key reaction intermediates,enabling superior adaptability to diverse catalytic pathways.By precisely controlling Cu content,we identified Pt_(3)Cu_(3)Mo_(0.5)AA as the optimal catalyst configuration,demonstrating 150% enhancement in methanol oxidation reaction activity compared to Pt_(3)Cu_(6)Mo_(0.5)NA(1.5 vs.0.6 A·mg_(Pt)^(-1))and 17% improvement in ethanol oxidation reaction performance versus Pt_(3)Cu_(1)Mo_(0.5)NA(0.82 vs.0.70 A·mg_(Pt)^(-1)).Practical application testing using gas diffusion electrodes(anode loading:0.85 mg_(Pt)·cm^(-2))achieved a mass-specific power density of 14.14 W·g_(Pt)^(-1)in 1:1 methanol/ethanol blends,representing a 3.5-fold improvement over commercial Pt/C benchmarks.This work establishes a fundamental framework for developing highperformance,broad-spectrum electrocatalysts in advanced fuel cell systems.

文摘Rechargeable Zn/Sn-air batteries have received considerable attention as promising energy storage devices.However,the electrochemical performance of these batteries is significantly constrained by the sluggish electrocatalytic reaction kinetics at the cathode.The integration of light energy into Zn/Sn-air batteries is a promising strategy for enhancing their performance.However,the photothermal and photoelectric effects generate heat in the battery under prolonged solar irradiation,leading to air cathode instability.This paper presents the first design and synthesis of Ni_(2)-1,5-diamino-4,8-dihydroxyanthraquinone(Ni_(2)DDA),an electronically conductiveπ-d conjugated metal-organic framework(MOF).Ni_(2)DDA exhibits both photoelectric and photothermal effects,with an optical band gap of~1.14 eV.Under illumination,Ni_(2)DDA achieves excellent oxygen evolution reaction performance(with an overpotential of 245 mV vs.reversible hydrogen electrode at 10 mA cm^(−2))and photothermal stability.These properties result from the synergy between the photoelectric and photothermal effects of Ni_(2)DDA.Upon integration into Zn/Sn-air batteries,Ni_(2)DDA ensures excellent cycling stability under light and exhibits remarkable performance in high-temperature environments up to 80℃.This study experimentally confirms the stable operation of photo-assisted Zn/Sn-air batteries under high-temperature conditions for the first time and provides novel insights into the application of electronically conductive MOFs in photoelectrocatalysis and photothermal catalysis.

文摘The sulfation and decomposition process has proven effective in selectively extracting lithium from lepidolite.It is essential to clarify the thermochemical behavior and kinetic parameters of decomposition reactions.Accordingly,comprehensive kinetic study by employing thermalgravimetric analysis at various heating rates was presented in this paper.Two main weight loss regions were observed during heating.The initial region corresponded to the dehydration of crystal water,whereas the subsequent region with overlapping peaks involved complex decomposition reactions.The overlapping peaks were separated into two individual reaction peaks and the activation energy of each peak was calculated using isoconversional kinetics methods.The activation energy of peak 1 exhibited a continual increase as the reaction conversion progressed,while that of peak 2 steadily decreased.The optimal kinetic models,identified as belonging to the random nucleation and subsequent growth category,provided valuable insights into the mechanism of the decomposition reactions.Furthermore,the adjustment factor was introduced to reconstruct the kinetic mechanism models,and the reconstructed models described the kinetic mechanism model more accurately for the decomposition reactions.This study enhanced the understanding of the thermochemical behavior and kinetic parameters of the lepidolite sulfation product decomposition reactions,further providing theoretical basis for promoting the selective extraction of lithium.
