Its effectiveness has been observed in many countries across the globe, where it is a traditional practice, and is now being encouraged across the African continent. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of FMNR on floristic Composition, Vegetation Structure, and Regeneration Status of woody Plant Species in the severely degraded Central Rift, Kenya. The study systematically assessed how FMNR influenced species composition, vegetation structure and regeneration status from two sample plots involved in FMNR practices. Transect lines and quadrats methods were utilized to collect data, specifically regarding the floristic composition, vegetation structure, and regeneration status of woody plant species. Quadrats and sub-quadrats of varying sizes (10 m by 10 m, 5 m by 5 m, and 1 m by 1 m) were nested along the transect lines for data collection. Furthermore, measurements of tree growth and development, including root collar diameter, diameter at breast height (D<sub>130</sub>) and heights within the study blocks, were taken. The data was then analyzed using R-software. Results showed a marked progressive increase in numbers of trees, saplings, seedlings, shrubs and herbs in all FMNR sites and reductions in all non-FMNR sites. The study advocates for widespread promotion of the FMNR practice both as an environmental conservation and restoration strategy.展开更多

The assessment of electromagnetic SE for Slotted Composite Structures(SCSs) is particularly challenging due to their complex geometries and there remains a lack of suitable models for accurately predicting the SE performance of these intricate configurations. To address this issue, this paper introduces SCS-Net, a Deep Neural Network (DNN) method designed to accurately predict the SE of SCS. This method considers the impacts of various structural parameters, material properties and incident wave parameters on the SE of SCSs. In order to better model the SCS, an improved Nicolson-Ross-Weir (NRW) method is introduced in this paper to provide an equivalent flat structure for the SCS and to calculate the electromagnetic parameters of the equivalent structure. Additionally, the prediction of SE via DNNs is limited by insufficient test data, which hinders support for large-sample training. To address the issue of limited measured data, this paper develops a Measurement-Computation Fusion (MCF) dataset construction method. The predictions based on the simulation results show that the proposed method maintains an error of less than 0.07 dB within the 8–10 GHz frequency range. Furthermore, a new loss function based on the weighted L1-norm is established to improve the prediction accuracy for these parameters. Compared with traditional loss functions, the new loss function reduces the maximum prediction error for equivalent electromagnetic parameters by 47%. This method significantly improves the prediction accuracy of SCS-Net for measured data, with a maximum improvement of 23.88%. These findings demonstrate that the proposed method enables precise SE prediction and design for composite structures while reducing the number of test samples needed.展开更多

However, due to human impacts, the forest cover in Ethiopia has been decreasing rapidly. The study was carried out with the purpose of finding out the Regeneration Status, Population Structure and Floristic composition of Woody Plant Species in Sheleko Medihanialem Natural Forest in Gondar, North West Ethiopia, from October 2019 to September 2020. The systematic vegetation sampling method was used to collect data from Fifty plots of 20 m × 20 m (400 m2) along five line transects. In addition, five, 5 m × 5 m subplots were laid within the main plot to sample seedlings and saplings. The floristic composition and population structure of woody individuals of trees and shrubs with a diameter at breast height (DBH) ≥ 2.5 cm and height ≥ 2 m were measured. DBH ≤ 2.5 cm and less than 1 m height were considered as seedlings and DBH ≥ 2.5 cm and height of 1 - 2 m as saplings. Vegetation data of density, frequency, basal area, and importance value index were computed. A total of 65 woody plant species in 54 genera and 34 plant families were recorded. Fabaceae, Moraceae and Euphorbiaceae were the dominant families in terms of species richness. Woody species densities for mature individuals were 2202.5 stems∙ha−1, seedling 2419.2 stems∙ha−1 and sapling 1737.6 stems∙ha−1. The forest was dominated by small-sized/young trees and shrubs, indicating the status of secondary growth and/or regeneration.展开更多

文摘The Bayan Har block,one of China's most seismically active regions,has experienced multiple major earthquakes(≥M 7.0)in recent years.It is a key area for investigating the interactions between the Qinghai-Xizang(Qingzang)Plateau and adjacent blocks,plateau uplift,and strong earthquake mechanisms.P-wave velocity and crustal composition provide key constraints on the properties of distinct tectonic units and their evolutionary modification processes.Based on the results of 8 Deep Seismic Sounding(DSS)profiles completed in the Bayan Har block and surrounding areas over the past 20 years,We constructed one-dimensional P-wave velocity models for the crust of Bayan Har block,Qilian fold belt,Qinling fold belt,Alxa block,Ordos block and Sichuan basin.Furthermore,crustal composition models for different tectonic units were established based on these results.The results reveal that the crustal thickness of the Bayan Har block gradually decreases towards the NNE,NE,and SE directions,while the average crustal velocity increases correspondingly.The felsic layer in the crust accounts for more than half of the total crustal thickness.The mafic content within the crust of different tectonic units exhibits notable variations,which may reflect that the Bayan Har block,Qilian fold belt,and Qinling fold belt have experienced more intensive lithospheric evolution processes compared to Ordos basin and Sichuan basin.The seismicity distribution in this region is significantly controlled by crustal velocity and composition heterogeneity across the Bayan Har block and adjacent areas,which demonstrates that earthquakes within and around the Bayan Har block exhibit both high frequency and larger magnitudes.These seismic characteristics primarily result from intense crustal stress accumulation and release during the outward expansion of the Qingzang Plateau.
文摘Two novel lanthanide complexes,[Sm_(2)(BA)_(6)(4-OH-terpy)_(2)]·2H_(2)O·2EtOH(1)and[Pr_(2)(BA)_(6)(4-OH-terpy)_(2)(H_(2)O)_(2)]·HBA·H_(2)O(2),where HBA=benzoic acid,4-OH-terpy=4-hydroxy-2,2'∶6',2″-terpyridine,were successfully synthesized using ultrasonic dissolution and the conventional solution method with two mixed ligands HBA and 4-OH-terpy.During the synthesis,4-OH-terpy was involved in the reaction as a neutral ligand,while HBA,in its deprotonated form(BA-),coordinated with the lanthanide ions as an acidic ligand.The crystal structures of these two complexes were precisely determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.Elemental analysis,infrared and Raman spectroscopy,and powder X-ray diffraction techniques were also employed to further explore the physicochemical properties of the two complexes.The single-crystal X-ray diffraction data indicate that,despite their structural differences,both complexes belong to the triclinic crystal system P1 space group.The central lanthanide ions have the same coordination number but exhibit different coordination environments.To comprehensively evaluate the thermal stability of these two complexes,comprehensive tests including thermogravimetric analysis,differential thermogravimetric analysis,differential scanning calorimetry,Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy,and mass spectrometry were conducted.Meanwhile,an in-depth investigation was conducted into the 3D infrared stacked images and mass spectra of the gases emitted from the complexes.In addition,studies of the fluorescence properties of complex1 showed that it exhibited fluorescence emission matching the Sm^(3+)characteristic transition.

文摘Sodium-ion batteries are the prominent device for stationary energy storage system and low-speed electric vehicles.However,the practical application is still limited by the unsatisfied performance and high cost of the cathode side,which strictly requires the development of high voltage,high capacity,and earth-abundant cathode material.Ni-Fe-Mn ternary layered oxide has been recognized as one of the most promising standard type of cathodes.However,the composition and phase structure on high-voltage characteristics have not been well investigated.Herein,selecting the typically high-voltage cathode of P2-Na_(0.67)Ni_(0.33)Mn_(0.67)O_(2)as a parent material,we fabricate ten Ni-Fe-Mn ternary layered oxides through replacing the Ni,Mn,or both Ni and Mn by Fe.The thermodynamically stable phase diagram for those materials is presented.The electrochemical properties for all the samples are investigated in detail.Three potential Ni-Fe-Mn ternary layered oxides are picked up considering the energy density,cycle stability,kinetics,cost price,and working voltage,which demonstrate great potential for surpassing the performance of lithium iron phosphate.The related electrochemical reaction and fading mechanism are well revealed.This work provides some new foundational Ni-Fe-Mn ternary layered materials for high-voltage sodium-ion batteries.

文摘Despite the presence of Li F components in the solid electrolyte interphase(SEI)formed on the graphite anode surface by conventional electrolyte,these Li F components primarily exist in an amorphous state,rendering them incapable of effectively inhibiting the exchange reaction between lithium ions and transition metal ions in the electrolyte.Consequently,nearly all lithium ions within the SEI film are replaced by transition metal ions,resulting in an increase in interphacial impedance and a decrease in stability.Herein,we demonstrate that the SEI film,constructed by fluoroethylene carbonate(FEC)additive rich in crystalline Li F,effectively inhibits the undesired Li^(+)/Co^(2+)ion exchange reaction,thereby suppressing the deposition of cobalt compounds and metallic cobalt.Furthermore,the deposited cobalt compounds exhibit enhanced structural stability and reduced catalytic activity with minimal impact on the interphacial stability of the graphite anode.Our findings reveal the crucial influence of SEI film composition and structure on the deposition and hazards associated with transition metal ions,providing valuable guidance for designing next-generation electrolytes.

文摘With vigorous developments in nanotechnology,the elaborate regulation of microstructure shows attractive potential in the design of electromagnetic wave absorbers.Herein,a hierarchical porous structure and composite heterogeneous interface are constructed successfully to optimize the electromagnetic loss capacity.The macro–micro-synergistic graphene aerogel formed by the ice template‑assisted 3D printing strategy is cut by silicon carbide nanowires(SiC_(nws))grown in situ,while boron nitride(BN)interfacial structure is introduced on graphene nanoplates.The unique composite structure forces multiple scattering of incident EMWs,ensuring the combined effects of interfacial polarization,conduction networks,and magnetic-dielectric synergy.Therefore,the as-prepared composites present a minimum reflection loss value of−37.8 dB and a wide effective absorption bandwidth(EAB)of 9.2 GHz(from 8.8 to 18.0 GHz)at 2.5 mm.Besides,relying on the intrinsic high-temperature resistance of SiC_(nws) and BN,the EAB also remains above 5.0 GHz after annealing in air environment at 600℃ for 10 h.

文摘Near-αtitanium alloy and Ti_(2)AlNb alloy powders premixed with different proportions were prepared on the near-αtitanium alloy substrate by laser deposition technique,and the microstructure characteristics were analyzed and discussed.Results show that numerous river-like sub-grain structures are formed inside the equiaxed B2 grains of the laser-deposited premixed titanium alloy powders with the proportion of Ti_(2)AlNb above 40wt%,whereas the needle-like structure within coarse columnarβgrains exist with the proportion of Ti_(2)AlNb below 40wt%.It is noteworthy that the decrease in laser power and scanning speed can accelerate the formation of sub-grain structures.Based on the analysis of experimental results,it can be inferred that the formation of sub-grain structure not only is related to the precipitation of O phase due to composition micro-segregation at sub-grain boundaries,but also is inseparable from the stacking faults caused by the internal stress during the laser deposition.

文摘With the increasing complexity of the current electromagnetic environment,excessive microwave radi-ation not only does harm to human health but also forms various electromagnetic interference to so-phisticated electronic instruments.Therefore,the design and preparation of electromagnetic absorbing composites represent an efficient approach to mitigate the current hazards of electromagnetic radiation.However,traditional electromagnetic absorbers are difficult to satisfy the demands of actual utilization in the face of new challenges,and emerging absorbents have garnered increasing attention due to their structure and performance-based advantages.In this review,several emerging composites of Mxene-based,biochar-based,chiral,and heat-resisting are discussed in detail,including their synthetic strategy,structural superiority and regulation method,and final optimization of electromagnetic absorption ca-pacity.These insights provide a comprehensive reference for the future development of new-generation electromagnetic-wave absorption composites.Moreover,the potential development directions of these emerging absorbers have been proposed as well.

文摘Currently,the Al_(2)O_(3)content in the high-alumina slag systems within blast furnaces is generally limited to 16wt%–18.5wt%,making it challenging to overcome this limitation.Unlike most studies that concentrated on managing the MgO/Al_(2)O_(3)ratio or basicity,this paper explored the effect of equimolar substitution of MgO for CaO on the viscosity and structure of a high-alumina CaO-MgO-Al_(2)O_(3)-SiO_(2)slag system,providing theoretical guidance and data to facilitate the application of high-alumina ores.The results revealed that the viscosity first decreased and then increased with higher MgO substitution,reaching a minimum at 15mol%MgO concentration.Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR)results found that the depths of the troughs representing[SiO_(4)]tetrahedra,[AlO_(4)]tetrahedra,and Si-O-Al bending became progressively deeper with increased MgO substitution.Deconvolution of the Raman spectra showed that the average number of bridging oxygens per Si atom and the X_(Q^(3))/X_(Q^(2))(X_(Q^(i))is the molar fraction of Q^(i) unit,and i is the number of bridging oxygens in a[SiO_(4)]tetrahedral unit)ratio increased from 2.30 and 1.02 to 2.52 and 2.14,respectively,indicating a progressive polymerization of the silicate structure.X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS)results highlighted that non-bridging oxygen content decreased from 77.97mol% to 63.41mol% with increasing MgO concentration,whereas bridging oxygen and free oxygen contents increased.Structural analysis demonstrated a gradual increase in the polymerization degree of the tetrahedral structure with the increase in MgO substitution.However,bond strength is another important factor affecting the slag viscosity.The occurrence of a viscosity minimum can be attributed to the complex evolution of bond strengths of non-bridging oxygens generated during depolymerization of the[SiO_(4)]and[AlO_(4)]tetrahedral structures by CaO and MgO.
文摘The technique of Farmer Managed Natural Regeneration (FMNR) is being promoted as a cost-effective approach for restoring degraded arable dry lands. Its effectiveness has been observed in many countries across the globe, where it is a traditional practice, and is now being encouraged across the African continent. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of FMNR on floristic Composition, Vegetation Structure, and Regeneration Status of woody Plant Species in the severely degraded Central Rift, Kenya. The study systematically assessed how FMNR influenced species composition, vegetation structure and regeneration status from two sample plots involved in FMNR practices. Transect lines and quadrats methods were utilized to collect data, specifically regarding the floristic composition, vegetation structure, and regeneration status of woody plant species. Quadrats and sub-quadrats of varying sizes (10 m by 10 m, 5 m by 5 m, and 1 m by 1 m) were nested along the transect lines for data collection. Furthermore, measurements of tree growth and development, including root collar diameter, diameter at breast height (D<sub>130</sub>) and heights within the study blocks, were taken. The data was then analyzed using R-software. Results showed a marked progressive increase in numbers of trees, saplings, seedlings, shrubs and herbs in all FMNR sites and reductions in all non-FMNR sites. The study advocates for widespread promotion of the FMNR practice both as an environmental conservation and restoration strategy.

文摘As the proportion of composite materials used in aircraft continues to increase, the electromagnetic Shielding Effectiveness (SE) of these materials becomes a critical factor in the electromagnetic safety design of aircraft structures. The assessment of electromagnetic SE for Slotted Composite Structures(SCSs) is particularly challenging due to their complex geometries and there remains a lack of suitable models for accurately predicting the SE performance of these intricate configurations. To address this issue, this paper introduces SCS-Net, a Deep Neural Network (DNN) method designed to accurately predict the SE of SCS. This method considers the impacts of various structural parameters, material properties and incident wave parameters on the SE of SCSs. In order to better model the SCS, an improved Nicolson-Ross-Weir (NRW) method is introduced in this paper to provide an equivalent flat structure for the SCS and to calculate the electromagnetic parameters of the equivalent structure. Additionally, the prediction of SE via DNNs is limited by insufficient test data, which hinders support for large-sample training. To address the issue of limited measured data, this paper develops a Measurement-Computation Fusion (MCF) dataset construction method. The predictions based on the simulation results show that the proposed method maintains an error of less than 0.07 dB within the 8–10 GHz frequency range. Furthermore, a new loss function based on the weighted L1-norm is established to improve the prediction accuracy for these parameters. Compared with traditional loss functions, the new loss function reduces the maximum prediction error for equivalent electromagnetic parameters by 47%. This method significantly improves the prediction accuracy of SCS-Net for measured data, with a maximum improvement of 23.88%. These findings demonstrate that the proposed method enables precise SE prediction and design for composite structures while reducing the number of test samples needed.

文摘Through equilibrium and non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations,we have demonstrated the inhibitory effect of composition graded interface on thermal transport behavior in lateral heterostructures.Specifically,we investigated the influence of composition gradient length and heterogeneous particles at the silicene/germanene(SIL/GER)heterostructure interface on heat conduction.Our results indicate that composition graded interface at the interface diminishes the thermal conductivity of the heterostructure,with a further reduction observed as the length increases,while the effect of the heterogeneous particles can be considered negligible.To unveil the influence of composition graded interface on thermal transport,we conducted phonon analysis and identified the presence of phonon localization within the interface composition graded region.Through these analyses,we have determined that the decrease in thermal conductivity is correlated with phonon localization within the heterostructure,where a stronger degree of phonon localization signifies poorer thermal conductivity in the material.Our research findings not only contribute to understanding the impact of interface gradient-induced phonon localization on thermal transport but also offer insights into the modulation of thermal conductivity in heterostructures.

文摘Integrating a heterogeneous structure can significantly enhance the strength-ductility synergy of composites.However,the relationship between hetero-deformation induced(HDI)strain hardening and dislocation activity caused by heterogeneous structures in the magnesium matrix composite remains unclear.In this study,a dual-heterogeneous TiC/AZ61 composite exhibits significantly improved plastic elongation(PEL)by nearly one time compared to uniform FG composite,meanwhile maintaining a high strength(UTS:417 MPa).This is because more severe deformation inhomogeneity in heterogeneous structure leads to more geometrically necessary dislocations(GNDs)accumulation and stronger HDI stress,resulting in higher HDI hardening compared to FG and CG composites.During the early stage of plastic deformation,the pile-up types of GND in the FG zone and CG zone are significantly different.GNDs tend to form substructures in the FG zone instead of the CG zone.They only accumulate at grain boundaries of the CG region,thereby leading to obviously increased back stress in the CG region.In the late deformation stage,the elevated HDI stress activates the new〈c+a〉dislocations in the CG region,resulting in dislocation entanglements and even the formation of substructures,further driving the high hardening in the heterogeneous composite.However,For CG composite,〈c+a〉dislocations are not activated even under large plastic strains,and only〈a〉dislocations pile up at grain boundaries and twin boundaries.Our work provides an in-depth understanding of dislocation variation and HDI hardening in heterogeneous magnesium-based composites.

文摘Recent progress in microwave absorption materials stimulates the extensive exploration of rare earth oxide materials.Herein,we report the synthesis of a hollow sphere-based carbon material compounded with rare earth oxides.Hollow N-doped carbon nano-spheres loaded ceria composites(H-NC@CeO_(2))were designed and prepared by the template method,combined with in-situ coating,pyrolysis and chemical etching.By controlling the loading content of H-NC@CeO_(2)and adjusting the impedance matching of the material,the H-NC@CeO_(2)/PS(polystyrene)composite exhibited a minimum reflection loss(RL)of-50.8 dB and an effective absorption band-width(EAB)of 4.64 GHz at a filler ratio of 20wt%and a thickness of 2 mm.In accordance with measured electromagnetic parameters,simulations using the high frequency structure simulator(HFSS)software were conducted to investigate the impact of the honeycomb structure on the electromagnetic wave performance of H-NC@CeO_(2)/PS.By calculating the surface electric field and the material’s bulk loss density,the mechanism of electromagnetic loss for the honeycomb structure was elaborated.A method for structural design and man-ufacturing of broadband absorbing devices was proposed and a broadband absorber with an EAB of 11.9 GHz was prepared.This study presents an innovative approach to designing advanced electromagnetic(EM)wave absorbing materials with broad absorption band-widths.

文摘Cu^(+)-doped alkali borosilicate glasses with different Na_(2)O contents were prepared by the melting method,and the effects of different R values(R=Na_(2)O/B_(2)O_(3))on the structure,ion presence state and luminescence properties of Cu^(+)-doped alkali borosilicate glasses were investigated.The analysis by FT-IR and Raman spectroscopy shows that,with the increase of R value of the glass,the[BO_(3)]in the structure of Cu^(+)-doped alkali borosilicate glass transforms into[BO_(4)]and the number of non-bridging oxygen in the glass network appears to be slightly increased.The absorption spectra and EPR analysis reveal that the Cu^(+)content in the glass gradually decreases and the Cu^(2+)content gradually increases as the R value of the glass increases.XPS and PL tests further indicate that the transformation of the octahedral coordination structure of Cu^(+)to the octahedral coordination structure of Cu^(2+)and the cubic coordination structure of Cu^(+)occurs in the glass as the R value of the glass increases.This transformation can effectively reduce the concentration quenching phenomenon of Cu^(+)and improve the fluorescence luminescence intensity of the glass samples.Meanwhile,the samples were found to have luminescence tunability as well as good thermal stability.

文摘Ethiopia is one of the countries in the world endowed with rich biological resources. However, due to human impacts, the forest cover in Ethiopia has been decreasing rapidly. The study was carried out with the purpose of finding out the Regeneration Status, Population Structure and Floristic composition of Woody Plant Species in Sheleko Medihanialem Natural Forest in Gondar, North West Ethiopia, from October 2019 to September 2020. The systematic vegetation sampling method was used to collect data from Fifty plots of 20 m × 20 m (400 m2) along five line transects. In addition, five, 5 m × 5 m subplots were laid within the main plot to sample seedlings and saplings. The floristic composition and population structure of woody individuals of trees and shrubs with a diameter at breast height (DBH) ≥ 2.5 cm and height ≥ 2 m were measured. DBH ≤ 2.5 cm and less than 1 m height were considered as seedlings and DBH ≥ 2.5 cm and height of 1 - 2 m as saplings. Vegetation data of density, frequency, basal area, and importance value index were computed. A total of 65 woody plant species in 54 genera and 34 plant families were recorded. Fabaceae, Moraceae and Euphorbiaceae were the dominant families in terms of species richness. Woody species densities for mature individuals were 2202.5 stems∙ha−1, seedling 2419.2 stems∙ha−1 and sapling 1737.6 stems∙ha−1. The forest was dominated by small-sized/young trees and shrubs, indicating the status of secondary growth and/or regeneration.
文摘Fatty acids are the main constituents of vegetable oils.To determine the fatty acid compositions of small trade vegetable oils and some less well studied beneficial vegetable oils,and investigate their relationships with antioxidant activity and oxidative stability,gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was performed to characterize the associated fatty acid profiles.The antioxidant activity of vegetable oils,based on their DPPH-scavenging capacity(expressed as IC_(50) values),was used to assess their impact on human health,and their oxidative stability was characterized by performing lipid oxidation analysis to determine the oxidative induction time of fats and oils.In addition,correlation analyses were performed to examine associations between the fatty acid composition of the oils and DPPH-scavenging capacity and oxidative stability.The results revealed that among the assessed oils,coffee seed oil has the highest saturated fatty acid content(355.10 mg/g),whereas Garddenia jaminoides oil has the highest unsaturated fatty acid content(844.84 mg/g).Coffee seed oil was also found have the lowest DPPH IC_(50) value(2.30 mg/mL)and the longest oxidation induction time(17.09 h).Correlation analysis revealed a significant linear relationship(P<0.05)between oxidative stability and unsaturated fatty acid content,with lower contents tending to be associated with better oxidative stability.The findings of this study provide reference data for the screening of functional edible vegetable oils.
文摘To expand the study on the structures and biological activities of the anthracyclines anticancer drugs and reduce their toxic side effects,the new anthraquinone derivatives,9‑pyridylanthrahydrazone(9‑PAH)and 9,10‑bispyridylanthrahydrazone(9,10‑PAH)were designed and synthesized.Utilizing 9‑PAH and 9,10‑PAH as promising anticancer ligands,their respective copper complexes,namely[Cu(L1)Cl_(2)]Cl(1)and{[Cu_(4)(μ_(2)‑Cl)_(3)Cl_(4)(9,10‑PAH)_(2)(DMSO)_(2)]Cl_(2)}_(n)(2),were subsequently synthesized,where the new ligand L1 is formed by coupling two 9‑PAH ligands in the coordination reaction.The chemical and crystal structures of 1 and 2 were elucidated by IR,MS,elemental analysis,and single‑crystal X‑ray diffraction.Complex 1 forms a mononuclear structure.L1 coordinates with Cu through its three N atoms,together with two Cl atoms,to form a five‑coordinated square pyramidal geometry.Complex 2 constitutes a polymeric structure,wherein each structural unit centrosymmetrically encompasses two five‑coordinated binuclear copper complexes(Cu1,Cu2)of 9,10‑PAH,with similar square pyramidal geometry.A chlorine atom(Cl_(2)),located at the symmetry center,bridges Cu1 and Cu1A to connect the two binuclear copper structures.Meanwhile,the two five‑coordinated Cu2 atoms symmetrically bridge the adjacent structural units via one coordinated Cl atom,respectively,thus forming a 1D chain‑like polymeric structure.In vitro anticancer activity assessments revealed that 1 and 2 showed significant cytotoxicity even higher than cisplatin.Specifically,the IC_(50)values of 2 against HeLa‑229 and SK‑OV‑3 cancer cell lines were determined to be(5.92±0.32)μmol·L^(-1)and(6.48±0.39)μmol·L^(-1),respectively.2 could also block the proliferation of HeLa‑229 cells in S phase and significantly induce cell apoptosis.In addition,fluorescence quenching competition experiments suggested that 2 might interact with DNA by an intercalative binding mode,offering insights into its underlying anticancer mechanism.CCDC:2388918,1;2388919,2.

文摘As-forged WSTi6421 titanium alloy billet afterβannealing was investigated.Abnormally coarse grains larger than adjacent grains could be observed in the microstructures,forming abnormal grain structures with uneven size distribution.Through electron backscattered diffraction(EBSD),the forged microstructure at various locations of as-forged WSTi6421 titanium alloy billet was analyzed,revealing that the strength of theβphase cubic texture generated by forging significantly influences the grain size afterβannealing.Heat treatment experiments were conducted within the temperature range from T_(β)−50°C to T_(β)+10°C to observe the macro-and micro-morphologies.Results show that the cubic texture ofβphase caused by forging impacts the texture of the secondaryαphase,which subsequently influences theβphase formed during the post-βannealing process.Moreover,the pinning effect of the residual primaryαphase plays a crucial role in the growth ofβgrains during theβannealing process.EBSD analysis results suggest that the strength ofβphase with cubic texture formed during forging process impacts the orientation distribution differences ofβgrains afterβannealing.Additionally,the development of grains with large orientations within the cubic texture shows a certain degree of selectivity duringβannealing,which is affected by various factors,including the pinning effect of the primaryαphase,the strength of the matrix cubic texture,and the orientation relationship betweenβgrain and matrix.Comprehensively,the stronger the texture in a certain region,the less likely the large misoriented grains suffering secondary growth,thereby aggregating the difference in microstructure and grain orientation distribution across different regions afterβannealing.
