And its mechanism was discussed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS). The results show that sulfur has strong catalysis on both air and CO2 reactivity of coke in the case of no other impurity interference. Its catalysis is probably realized by triggering organic sulfur→H2S→SO2→COS and elemental sulfur (Sx)→SO2 and organic sulfur→H2S→COS→Sx→C2S→COS reaction systems during coke?O2 and coke?CO2 reactions, respectively, which are partly circular with functions of increasing carbon consumption and enlarging coke specific surface area.展开更多

Measure- ment of this evolved heat is helpful in terms of understanding the nature of the interactions be- tween the catalyst and the adsorbed species, and provides insights into the reactivity of the catalyst. Although various techniques have previously been applied to assessments of evolved heat, direct measurements using a Tian-Calvet microcalorimeter are currently the most reliable method for this purpose. In this review, we summarize the relationship between the adsorption/reaction energetics determined by microcalorimetry and the reactivities of supported catalysts, and examine the im- portant role of microcalorimetry in understanding catalytic performance from the energetic point of view.展开更多

The chemical reactivities of 73 quantified VOCs species were evaluated by OH loss rates （LOH） and ozone formation potentials （OFPs）. Top 15 reactive species, mainly alkenes and aromatics, were identified by these two methods, and accounted for more than 70% of total reactivity of VOCs. In urban areas, isoprene was the most reactive species in term of OH loss rate, contributing 11.4% to the LOH of VOCs. While toluene, accounting for 9.4% of OFPs, appeared to have a long-time role in the photochemical processes. Tongzhou site is obviously influenced by local chemical industry, but the other five sites showed typical urban features influenced mainly by vehicular emissions.展开更多

Monomers reactivity ratios were calculated based on the Kelen-Tiid6s （K-T） method and the Mao-Huglin （M-H） method. The influence of temperature on copolymer composition and polymerization rate was discussed in detail. The increase of reaction temperature brought the decrease of butadiene reactivity ratio rBd and supplied an effective adjustment on copolymers＇ composition distribution.展开更多

For a part of the studied compounds this sensitivity has increased with increase of the AV values, but for fairly big number of nitramines the relationship works in the opposite direction, especially for data of 1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazinane, 1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetrazocane. and β-and ε-polymorphs of 2,4,6,8,10,12-hexanitro-2,4,6,8,10,12-hexaazaisowurtzitane. Initiation reactivity of technical ε-polymorph of 2,4,6,8,10,12-hexanitro-2,4,6,8,10,12-hexaazaisowurtzitane gives the impression by disorderliness in distribution of the actions of forces in its crystal lattice in comparison with its RS(reduced sensitivity) or chemically pure analogue. Limitations of partial shapes of the mentioned relationship by the molecular-structural similarity, and already published information about the decisive factors governing the crystal structure, signalizes a higher influence of the intermolecular interactions in a crystal lattice in comparison with influence of the crystal lattice free volume for initiation of the crystalline EMs.展开更多

Increasing FS due to raising of the △V values is not clearly confirmed. The influence of the △V values on friction sensitivity of nitramines is similar to that of their aza atoms which influence the mutual orientations of nitro groups in neighboring molecules. The dipole-dipole interaction of the oxygen and nitrogen atoms of nitro groups in neighboring nitramine molecules has a major effect on their own FS. In accordance with this interaction, a directly proportional relationship was derived between FS and the intrinsic gas phase molecular volume, V_(int), of the nitramines mentioned, which is divided also into several straight lines according to relatively tight molecular structure similarity. The relationships found again confirm a level of disorder in the distribution of the forces in the crystal lattice of the "common" quality of ε-2,4,6,8,10,12-hexanitro-2,4,6,8,10,12-hexaazaisowurtzitane, in comparison with its reduced sensitivity(RS) or chemically pure analogue.展开更多

Copolymer compositions at low conversion levels were determined by ^1H NMR spectra techniques. The reactivity ratios were evaluated by employing Kellen-Tudos （K-T） methods, which yields the apparent reactivity ratios, rBMA = 0.74, rHFMA = 0.87 and rBMA = 0.73, rTFMA = 0.75, respectively, and Q- and e-values of HFMA and TFMA were calculated by the Alfrey-Price method. The results show that HFMA and TFMA are more active than BMA, and the cross-propagation rate constant is greater than the self-propagation one in these two copolymerizations.展开更多

It is shown that the spatio-temporal characteristics of detonation initiation depend highly on the chemi- cal reactivity of the mixture. When the chemical reactivity enhances, the flame can be severely distorted to form a reactive shock bifurcation structure with detonations initiating at different three-dimensional spatial locations. Moreover, the detonation initiation would occur earlier in a mixture of more enhanced reactivity. The results reveal that the detona- tions arise from hot spots in the unburned region which are initiated by the shock-detonation-transition mechanism.展开更多

文摘Aluminum(Al)powder is widely applied in thermobaric explosives due to its high energy density and favorable reaction kinetics.However,the inert oxide layer(Al_(2)O_(3))on Al particles limits combustion reactivity and energy efficiency.Fluoride-based surface modification has been developed as an effective approach to address this issue.Here,four classical fluoropolymers(F11,F14,PVDF,PTFE)are employed as coatings to prepare core-shell Al/Fluoropolymer.The combustion experimental results demonstrate that the core-shell Al/PTFE exhibits the highest flame propagation rate(52.88 mm·ms^(-1))and pressure output(109.02 k Pa)performance.Consequently,core-shell Al/PTFE is selected as a high-energy fuel to prepare RDX/Al/PTFE microspheres via the emulsion and solvent evaporation method,which can enhance the energy performance of RDX.The effects of the core-shell Al/PTFE ratio and RDX content on the combustion heat and pressure output are systematically investigated.The peak pressure reaches a maximum of 187.8 k Pa when the mass ratio of RDX,Al,and PTFE is 60:25:10.Additionally,RDX/Al/PTFE microspheres exhibit significantly higher laser-induced air shock velocities,detonation heat,and detonation pressure than those of pure RDX and RDX/Al.The mechanism underlying the enhanced reactivity and energetic performance is attributed to the ability of PTFE to etch the inert Al_(2)O_(3)shell on the surface of Al particles,thereby improving post-combustion reactions and significantly increasing the overall energy output of RDX explosives.This work offers a novel design strategy for high-energy structural thermobaric explosives for the practical applications.

文摘An optimized volt-ampere reactive(VAR)control framework is proposed for transmission-level power systems to simultaneously mitigate voltage deviations and active-power losses through coordinated control of large-scale wind/solar farms with shunt static var generators(SVGs).The model explicitly represents reactive-power regulation characteristics of doubly-fed wind turbines and PV inverters under real-time meteorological conditions,and quantifies SVG high-speed compensation capability,enabling seamless transition from localized VAR management to a globally coordinated strategy.An enhanced adaptive gain-sharing knowledge optimizer(AGSK-SD)integrates simulated annealing and diversity maintenance to autonomously tune voltage-control actions,renewable source reactive-power set-points,and SVG output.The algorithm adaptively modulates knowledge factors and ratios across search phases,performs SA-based fine-grained local exploitation,and periodically re-injects population diversity to prevent premature convergence.Comprehensive tests on IEEE 9-bus and 39-bus systems demonstrate AGSK-SD’s superiority over NSGA-II and MOPSO in hypervolume(HV),inverse generative distance(IGD),and spread metrics while maintaining acceptable computational burden.The method reduces network losses from 2.7191 to 2.15 MW(20.79%reduction)and from 15.1891 to 11.22 MW(26.16%reduction)in the 9-bus and 39-bus systems respectively.Simultaneously,the cumulative voltage-deviation index decreases from 0.0277 to 3.42×10^(−4) p.u.(98.77%reduction)in the 9-bus system,and from 0.0556 to 0.0107 p.u.(80.76%reduction)in the 39-bus system.These improvements demonstrate significant suppression of line losses and voltage fluctuations.Comparative analysis with traditional heuristic optimization algorithms confirms the superior performance of the proposed approach.

文摘Effect of sulfur impurity on coke reactivity was investigated by simulating petroleum coke with low-impurity pitch coke and impurities doping. And its mechanism was discussed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS). The results show that sulfur has strong catalysis on both air and CO2 reactivity of coke in the case of no other impurity interference. Its catalysis is probably realized by triggering organic sulfur→H2S→SO2→COS and elemental sulfur (Sx)→SO2 and organic sulfur→H2S→COS→Sx→C2S→COS reaction systems during coke?O2 and coke?CO2 reactions, respectively, which are partly circular with functions of increasing carbon consumption and enlarging coke specific surface area.

文摘The electronic property of pyrite supercell containing As,Se,Te,Co or Ni hetero atoms were calculated using density functional theory（DFT）,and the reactivities of pyrite with oxygen and xanthate were discussed by frontier orbital methods.The cell volume expands due to the presence of impurity.Co and Ni mainly affect the bands near Fermi levels,while As mainly affects the shallow and deep valence bands,and Se and Te mainly affect the deep valence bands.Electronic density analysis suggests that there exists a strong covalent interaction between hetero atom and its surrounding atoms.By frontier orbital calculation,it is suggested that As,Co and Ni have greater influence on the HOMO and LUMO of pyrite than Se and Te.In addition,pyrite containing As,Co or Ni is easier to oxidize by oxygen than pyrite containing Se or Te,and pyrite containing Co or Ni has greater interaction with collector.These are in agreement with the observed pyrite practice.

文摘The formations and transformations of the chemical bonds of reactants and intermediates on cata- lyst surfaces occur in conjunction with the evolution of heat during catalytic reactions. Measure- ment of this evolved heat is helpful in terms of understanding the nature of the interactions be- tween the catalyst and the adsorbed species, and provides insights into the reactivity of the catalyst. Although various techniques have previously been applied to assessments of evolved heat, direct measurements using a Tian-Calvet microcalorimeter are currently the most reliable method for this purpose. In this review, we summarize the relationship between the adsorption/reaction energetics determined by microcalorimetry and the reactivities of supported catalysts, and examine the im- portant role of microcalorimetry in understanding catalytic performance from the energetic point of view.

文摘Ambient volatile organic compounds （VOCs） were sampled at six sites in Beijing in the summer of 2004 and analyzed by GCMS. The chemical reactivities of 73 quantified VOCs species were evaluated by OH loss rates （LOH） and ozone formation potentials （OFPs）. Top 15 reactive species, mainly alkenes and aromatics, were identified by these two methods, and accounted for more than 70% of total reactivity of VOCs. In urban areas, isoprene was the most reactive species in term of OH loss rate, contributing 11.4% to the LOH of VOCs. While toluene, accounting for 9.4% of OFPs, appeared to have a long-time role in the photochemical processes. Tongzhou site is obviously influenced by local chemical industry, but the other five sites showed typical urban features influenced mainly by vehicular emissions.

文摘A series of trans-1,4-butadiene/isoprene copolymers were prepared using the catalyst system TiCl4/MgCl2-Al（i- Bu）3 with bulk precipitation technology at different temperatures. Monomers reactivity ratios were calculated based on the Kelen-Tiid6s （K-T） method and the Mao-Huglin （M-H） method. The influence of temperature on copolymer composition and polymerization rate was discussed in detail. The increase of reaction temperature brought the decrease of butadiene reactivity ratio rBd and supplied an effective adjustment on copolymers＇ composition distribution.

文摘More detailed analysis of a mutual relationship of impact sensitivity(detected by sound) and crystal lattice free volume, △V, for the 18 nitramines shows that its course is not unequivocal. For a part of the studied compounds this sensitivity has increased with increase of the AV values, but for fairly big number of nitramines the relationship works in the opposite direction, especially for data of 1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazinane, 1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetrazocane. and β-and ε-polymorphs of 2,4,6,8,10,12-hexanitro-2,4,6,8,10,12-hexaazaisowurtzitane. Initiation reactivity of technical ε-polymorph of 2,4,6,8,10,12-hexanitro-2,4,6,8,10,12-hexaazaisowurtzitane gives the impression by disorderliness in distribution of the actions of forces in its crystal lattice in comparison with its RS(reduced sensitivity) or chemically pure analogue. Limitations of partial shapes of the mentioned relationship by the molecular-structural similarity, and already published information about the decisive factors governing the crystal structure, signalizes a higher influence of the intermolecular interactions in a crystal lattice in comparison with influence of the crystal lattice free volume for initiation of the crystalline EMs.

文摘The relationship between friction sensitivity(FS) and the crystal lattice free space per molecule, △V. of thirteen nitramines is described by a linear equation, divided into a number of the partial relationships with strong limitations by their molecular structure characteristics. Increasing FS due to raising of the △V values is not clearly confirmed. The influence of the △V values on friction sensitivity of nitramines is similar to that of their aza atoms which influence the mutual orientations of nitro groups in neighboring molecules. The dipole-dipole interaction of the oxygen and nitrogen atoms of nitro groups in neighboring nitramine molecules has a major effect on their own FS. In accordance with this interaction, a directly proportional relationship was derived between FS and the intrinsic gas phase molecular volume, V_(int), of the nitramines mentioned, which is divided also into several straight lines according to relatively tight molecular structure similarity. The relationships found again confirm a level of disorder in the distribution of the forces in the crystal lattice of the "common" quality of ε-2,4,6,8,10,12-hexanitro-2,4,6,8,10,12-hexaazaisowurtzitane, in comparison with its reduced sensitivity(RS) or chemically pure analogue.

文摘Miniemulsion copolymerization of butyl mathacrylate （BMA） with fluoroacrylate （HFMA, TFMA） was carried out at 70 ℃ by employing potassium persulphate （KPS） as initiator. Copolymer compositions at low conversion levels were determined by ^1H NMR spectra techniques. The reactivity ratios were evaluated by employing Kellen-Tudos （K-T） methods, which yields the apparent reactivity ratios, rBMA = 0.74, rHFMA = 0.87 and rBMA = 0.73, rTFMA = 0.75, respectively, and Q- and e-values of HFMA and TFMA were calculated by the Alfrey-Price method. The results show that HFMA and TFMA are more active than BMA, and the cross-propagation rate constant is greater than the self-propagation one in these two copolymerizations.

文摘The interactions of a spherical flame with an incident shock wave and its reflected shock wave in a confined space were investigated using the three-dimensional reactive Navier-Stokes equations, with emphasis placed on the effect of chemical reactivity of mixture on the flame distortion and detonation initiation after the passage of the reflected shock wave. It is shown that the spatio-temporal characteristics of detonation initiation depend highly on the chemi- cal reactivity of the mixture. When the chemical reactivity enhances, the flame can be severely distorted to form a reactive shock bifurcation structure with detonations initiating at different three-dimensional spatial locations. Moreover, the detonation initiation would occur earlier in a mixture of more enhanced reactivity. The results reveal that the detona- tions arise from hot spots in the unburned region which are initiated by the shock-detonation-transition mechanism.
