These behaviors of ultrafine silica in flotagent solution and the heter coagulation of silica and alumina were examined using particle size analyzer, electrokinetic potential, contact angle measurements. The flotation reagents have a pronounced effect on the aggregation or dispersion behaviors of ultrafine silica suspensions. Collector dodecylamine chloride renders silica surfaces hydrophobic and the aggregation between silica particles takes place. Modifier tripolyphosphate makes the silica surface completely hydrophilic and enhances the stability of silica suspension. These experimental results can be explained based on the extended DLVO theory by considering polar interfacial interaction between particle surfaces.展开更多

In this study, dispersion and aggregation of nano-TiO2 in aqueous solutions containing various anions were investigated. The influences of anion concentration and valence on the aggregation size, zeta potential and aggregation kinetics were individually investigated. Results showed that the zeta potential decreased from 19.8 to-41.4 mV when PO4^(3-) concentration was increased from 0 to 50 mg/L, while the corresponding average size of nano-TiO2 particles decreased from 613.2 to 540.3 nm. Both SO4^(2-) and NO3^-enhanced aggregation of nano-TiO2in solution. As SO4^(2-) concentration was increased from 0 to 500 mg/L, the zeta potential decreased from 19.8 to 1.4 mV, and aggregate sizes increased from 613.2 to 961.3 nm.The trend for NO3^- fluctuation was similar to that for SO4^(2-) although the range of variation for NO3^- was relatively narrow. SO4^(2-) and NO3^-accelerated the aggregation rapidly, while PO4^(3-) did so slowly. These findings facilitate the understanding of aggregation and dispersion mechanisms of nano-TiO2 in aqueous solutions in the presence of anions of interest.展开更多

(001) plane is dominant by ([SiO4]) tetrahedral, which interacted easily with hydrogen ion or other positive ions by electrostatic forces or hydrogen bonding. (001) plane is dominant by ([AlO2(OH)4]), which interacted easily with high negativity group such as -O-, -N-, F- etc. The apparent zeta potential and surface points of zero charge(PZC) are different for hard and soft kaolinites depending on their crystallinity index (HI). The self-aggregation between edge and basal plane due to the electrostatic interactions may occur at acidic media. The dispersion of kaolinite particles at alkaline media may be attributed to the electrostatic repulsion between basal planes and/or edges. The aggregation or dispersion behavior is revealed by scan electron microscope and the transmittance measurements for the suspension of kaolinite particles.展开更多

Most colloidal particles experienced the processes of aggregation, dispersion and climbing up to the plateaus of the patterns pre-lithographed on the indium tin oxide glass as the frequency of the alternating electrical field increased. Two critical frequencies fcritl ≈ 15 kHz and fcrit2 ≈ 40 kHz, corresponding to the transitions of the colloid behaviour were observed. When f 〈 15 kHz, the particles were forced to aggregate along the grooves of the negative photoresist patterned template. When 15 kHz 〈 f 〈 40 kHz, the particle clusters became unstable and most particles started to disperse and were blocked by the fringes of the negative photoresist patterns. As the frequency increased to above 40 kHz, the majority of particles started to climb up to the plateaus of the patterns. Furthermore, the dynamics analysis for the behaviour of the colloids was given and we found out that positive or negative dielectrophoresis force, electrohydrodynamic force, particle-particle interactions and Brownian motion change with the frequency of the alternating electric field. Thus, changes of the related forces affect or control the behaviour of the colloids.展开更多

ND investigated in this paper is a purified product of nanometer-sized diamond synthesized by explosive detonation. As obvious aggregation and sediment were observed when the sample was added into deionized water, it is crucial to conduct deaggregation and dispersion investigations. Amid a series of mechanical treatments, i.e. grinding, stirring, ultrasonic and classification, some reagents are introduced to modify the newly created surface during aggregates comminution. For the co-effects of mechanical forces and surfactants, the mean size of particles was reduced and a stable system containing ND with narrow size distribution was prepared. Mechanism of surface reaction and modification are discussed, while AFM, Zetasizer3000HS, XRD, XPS and FTIR are utilized for the analysis. The functional chemical structure of ND particle surface and surface electrical property changed during the modification processes, and the dispersion character and stability of suspension can consequently be improved.展开更多

文摘Oxide dispersion strengthened(ODS)alloys are extensively used owing to high thermostability and creep strength contributed from uniformly dispersed fine oxides particles.However,the existence of these strengthening particles also deteriorates the processability and it is of great importance to establish accurate processing maps to guide the thermomechanical processes to enhance the formability.In this study,we performed particle swarm optimization-based back propagation artificial neural network model to predict the high temperature flow behavior of 0.25wt%Al2O3 particle-reinforced Cu alloys,and compared the accuracy with that of derived by Arrhenius-type constitutive model and back propagation artificial neural network model.To train these models,we obtained the raw data by fabricating ODS Cu alloys using the internal oxidation and reduction method,and conducting systematic hot compression tests between 400 and800℃with strain rates of 10^(-2)-10 S^(-1).At last,processing maps for ODS Cu alloys were proposed by combining processing parameters,mechanical behavior,microstructure characterization,and the modeling results achieved a coefficient of determination higher than>99%.

文摘Dispersion and aggregation of nanoparticles in aqueous solutions are important factors for safe application of nanoparticles. In this study, dispersion and aggregation of nano-TiO2 in aqueous solutions containing various anions were investigated. The influences of anion concentration and valence on the aggregation size, zeta potential and aggregation kinetics were individually investigated. Results showed that the zeta potential decreased from 19.8 to-41.4 mV when PO4^(3-) concentration was increased from 0 to 50 mg/L, while the corresponding average size of nano-TiO2 particles decreased from 613.2 to 540.3 nm. Both SO4^(2-) and NO3^-enhanced aggregation of nano-TiO2in solution. As SO4^(2-) concentration was increased from 0 to 500 mg/L, the zeta potential decreased from 19.8 to 1.4 mV, and aggregate sizes increased from 613.2 to 961.3 nm.The trend for NO3^- fluctuation was similar to that for SO4^(2-) although the range of variation for NO3^- was relatively narrow. SO4^(2-) and NO3^-accelerated the aggregation rapidly, while PO4^(3-) did so slowly. These findings facilitate the understanding of aggregation and dispersion mechanisms of nano-TiO2 in aqueous solutions in the presence of anions of interest.
文摘Quantum chemical simulation calculation shows that kaolinite is cleaved to produce (001) and (001) basal planes. (001) plane is dominant by ([SiO4]) tetrahedral, which interacted easily with hydrogen ion or other positive ions by electrostatic forces or hydrogen bonding. (001) plane is dominant by ([AlO2(OH)4]), which interacted easily with high negativity group such as -O-, -N-, F- etc. The apparent zeta potential and surface points of zero charge(PZC) are different for hard and soft kaolinites depending on their crystallinity index (HI). The self-aggregation between edge and basal plane due to the electrostatic interactions may occur at acidic media. The dispersion of kaolinite particles at alkaline media may be attributed to the electrostatic repulsion between basal planes and/or edges. The aggregation or dispersion behavior is revealed by scan electron microscope and the transmittance measurements for the suspension of kaolinite particles.

文摘A fascinating colloid phenomenon was observed in a specially designed template-assisted cell under an alternating electrical field. Most colloidal particles experienced the processes of aggregation, dispersion and climbing up to the plateaus of the patterns pre-lithographed on the indium tin oxide glass as the frequency of the alternating electrical field increased. Two critical frequencies fcritl ≈ 15 kHz and fcrit2 ≈ 40 kHz, corresponding to the transitions of the colloid behaviour were observed. When f 〈 15 kHz, the particles were forced to aggregate along the grooves of the negative photoresist patterned template. When 15 kHz 〈 f 〈 40 kHz, the particle clusters became unstable and most particles started to disperse and were blocked by the fringes of the negative photoresist patterns. As the frequency increased to above 40 kHz, the majority of particles started to climb up to the plateaus of the patterns. Furthermore, the dynamics analysis for the behaviour of the colloids was given and we found out that positive or negative dielectrophoresis force, electrohydrodynamic force, particle-particle interactions and Brownian motion change with the frequency of the alternating electric field. Thus, changes of the related forces affect or control the behaviour of the colloids.

文摘By using molecular dynamics simulations based on the classical mechanic method,the dispersion behavior of gasoline detergent in deposit aggregation system was investigated.The representative simulation relating to the deposit molecules and the gasoline detergent molecules with high market share were selected as the model compounds.The microscopic mechanism of dispersing function of gasoline detergent was revealed in detail.It was found that due to Einterac(depo-depo)>Einteraction(gaso-gaso)>Einteraction(gaso-depo),the deposits were driven to gradually aggregate themselves in the gasoline medium.The relative strong interaction between characteristic groups in detergent molecules and deposits could weaken the interaction between deposit aggregates,which mainly comes from the Van der Waals force,the electrostatic interaction,and the orbital interaction.In order to play the dispersing role of detergent,the main factor is to enhance the interaction between the gasoline detergent and the deposit appropriately from the viewpoint of molecular structure design.

文摘We report dispersion property for femtosecond optical Kerr effect in the solutions of no-aggregation 16(trifluoro ethoxy1)vanadyl phthalocyanine in the wavelength range of 850-770 nm.The optical Kerr effect spectrum shows a broad near-resonant enhancement on the third-order nonlinear optical response of the molecule.
文摘A technology of mechanochemical treatment (MCT) is introduced to modify nanodiamond (ND) surface aiming to obtaining a stable suspension with well-dispersed ND particles in aqueous medium. ND investigated in this paper is a purified product of nanometer-sized diamond synthesized by explosive detonation. As obvious aggregation and sediment were observed when the sample was added into deionized water, it is crucial to conduct deaggregation and dispersion investigations. Amid a series of mechanical treatments, i.e. grinding, stirring, ultrasonic and classification, some reagents are introduced to modify the newly created surface during aggregates comminution. For the co-effects of mechanical forces and surfactants, the mean size of particles was reduced and a stable system containing ND with narrow size distribution was prepared. Mechanism of surface reaction and modification are discussed, while AFM, Zetasizer3000HS, XRD, XPS and FTIR are utilized for the analysis. The functional chemical structure of ND particle surface and surface electrical property changed during the modification processes, and the dispersion character and stability of suspension can consequently be improved.

文摘Diesel engine technology innovation causes excessive soot accumulated in engine oil.Due to its detrimental effect on lubricant and diesel engine,improving the dispersibility of engine oil to restrain soot aggregation efficiently is the key technique for formulations.In this study,the aggregation of soot and interaction between dispersant and soot were investigated by molecular dynamic simulation.It was found that the molecular interaction between the dispersant and the soot aggregation system had a significant influence on disrupting the soot aggregation.Bis-PIBSI was more beneficial to having more interaction sites with soot molecules,while the mono-PIBSI with a high proportion of polar groups had stronger interaction with soot molecules.According to the simulation result,suggestions for use of additives were proposed.Carbon black dispersancy test was exploited to verify the dispersion effect of different dispersants on carbon black.The results indicate that mono-PIBSI and bis-PIBSI added at suitable mixture ratio to lubricant could perform good dispersion ability.

文摘In global navigation satellite system denial environment,cross-view geo-localization based on image retrieval presents an exceedingly critical visual localization solution for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV)systems.The essence of cross-view geo-localization resides in matching images containing the same geographical targets from disparate platforms,such as UAV-view and satellite-view images.However,images of the same geographical targets may suffer from occlusions and geometric distortions due to variations in the capturing platform,view,and timing.The existing methods predominantly extract features by segmenting feature maps,which overlook the holistic semantic distribution and structural information of objects,resulting in loss of image information.To address these challenges,dilated neighborhood attention Transformer is employed as the feature extraction backbone,and Multi-feature representations based on Multi-scale Hierarchical Contextual Aggregation(MMHCA)is proposed.In the proposed MMHCA method,the multiscale hierarchical contextual aggregation method is utilized to extract contextual information from local to global across various granularity levels,establishing feature associations of contextual information with global and local information in the image.Subsequently,the multi-feature representations method is utilized to obtain rich discriminative feature information,bolstering the robustness of model in scenarios characterized by positional shifts,varying distances,and scale ambiguities.Comprehensive experiments conducted on the extensively utilized University-1652 and SUES-200 benchmarks indicate that the MMHCA method surpasses the existing techniques.showing outstanding results in UAV localization and navigation.
文摘Neurons are highly polarized cells with axons reaching over a meter long in adult humans.To survive and maintain their proper function,neurons depend on specific mechanisms that regulate spatiotemporal signaling and metabolic events,which need to be carried out at the right place,time,and intensity.Such mechanisms include axonal transport,local synthesis,and liquid-liquid phase separations.Alterations and malfunctions in these processes are correlated to neurodegenerative diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis(ALS).

文摘As smart grid technology rapidly advances,the vast amount of user data collected by smart meter presents significant challenges in data security and privacy protection.Current research emphasizes data security and user privacy concerns within smart grids.However,existing methods struggle with efficiency and security when processing large-scale data.Balancing efficient data processing with stringent privacy protection during data aggregation in smart grids remains an urgent challenge.This paper proposes an AI-based multi-type data aggregation method designed to enhance aggregation efficiency and security by standardizing and normalizing various data modalities.The approach optimizes data preprocessing,integrates Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM)networks for handling time-series data,and employs homomorphic encryption to safeguard user privacy.It also explores the application of Boneh Lynn Shacham(BLS)signatures for user authentication.The proposed scheme’s efficiency,security,and privacy protection capabilities are validated through rigorous security proofs and experimental analysis.

文摘Fine particulatematter(PM_(2.5))samples were collected in two neighboring cities,Beijing and Baoding,China.High-concentration events of PM_(2.5) in which the average mass concentration exceeded 75μg/m^(3) were frequently observed during the heating season.Dispersion Normalized Positive Matrix Factorization was applied for the source apportionment of PM_(2.5) as minimize the dilution effects of meteorology and better reflect the source strengths in these two cities.Secondary nitrate had the highest contribution for Beijing(37.3%),and residential heating/biomass burning was the largest for Baoding(27.1%).Secondary nitrate,mobile,biomass burning,district heating,oil combustion,aged sea salt sources showed significant differences between the heating and non-heating seasons in Beijing for same period(2019.01.10–2019.08.22)(Mann-Whitney Rank Sum Test P<0.05).In case of Baoding,soil,residential heating/biomass burning,incinerator,coal combustion,oil combustion sources showed significant differences.The results of Pearson correlation analysis for the common sources between the two cities showed that long-range transported sources and some sources with seasonal patterns such as oil combustion and soil had high correlation coefficients.Conditional Bivariate Probability Function(CBPF)was used to identify the inflow directions for the sources,and joint-PSCF(Potential Source Contribution Function)was performed to determine the common potential source areas for sources affecting both cities.These models facilitated a more precise verification of city-specific influences on PM_(2.5) sources.The results of this study will aid in prioritizing air pollution mitigation strategies during the heating season and strengthening air quality management to reduce the impact of downwind neighboring cities.
