Understanding the causes of performance decay in traditional carbons is crucial to design a high-performance material. Based on this, here, nitrogen-doped activated carbon(NAC) was prepared by pyrolyzing the blend of activated carbon powder(ACP) and melamine for the positive electrode of asymmetric CDI. By comparing the indicators changes such as conductivity, salt adsorption capacity, pH, and charge efficiency of the symmetrical ACP-ACP device to the asymmetric ACP-NAC device under different CDI cycles, as well as the changes of the electrochemical properties of anode and cathode materials after long-term operation, the reasons for the decline of the stability of the CDI performance were revealed. It was found that the carboxyl functional groups generated by the electro-oxidation of anode carbon materials make the anode zero-charge potential(E_(pzc)) shift positively,which results in the uneven distribution of potential windows of CDI units and affects the adsorption capacity. Furthermore, by understanding the electron density on C atoms surrounding the N atoms, we attribute the increased cyclic stability to the enhanced negativity of the charge of carbon atoms adjacent to quaternary-N and pyridinic-oxide-N.展开更多

Understanding the causes of performance decay in traditional carbons is crucial to design a high-performance material. Based on this, here, nitrogen-doped activated carbon(NAC) was prepared by pyrolyzing the blend of activated carbon powder(ACP) and melamine for the positive electrode of asymmetric CDI. By comparing the indicators changes such as conductivity, salt adsorption capacity, pH, and charge efficiency of the symmetrical ACP-ACP device to the asymmetric ACP-NAC device under different CDI cycles, as well as the changes of the electrochemical properties of anode and cathode materials after long-term operation, the reasons for the decline of the stability of the CDI performance were revealed. It was found that the carboxyl functional groups generated by the electro-oxidation of anode carbon materials make the anode zero-charge potential(E_(pzc)) shift positively,which results in the uneven distribution of potential windows of CDI units and affects the adsorption capacity. Furthermore, by understanding the electron density on C atoms surrounding the N atoms, we attribute the increased cyclic stability to the enhanced negativity of the charge of carbon atoms adjacent to quaternary-N and pyridinic-oxide-N.

文摘Designing catalysts with high catalytic activity and stability is the key to achieve the commercial application of MgH_(2).Herein,the sulfur doped Ti_(3)C_(2)(S-Ti_(3)C_(2))was successfully prepared by heat treatment of Ti_(3)C_(2)MXene under Ar/H_(2)S atmosphere to facilitate the hydrogen release and uptake from MgH_(2).The S-Ti_(3)C_(2)exhibited pleasant catalytic effect on the hydriding/dehydriding kinetics and cyclic stability of MgH_(2).The addition of 5 wt%S-Ti_(3)C_(2)into MgH_(2)resulted in a reduction of 114℃in the starting dehydriding temperature compared to pure MgH_(2).MgH_(2)+5 wt%S-Ti_(3)C_(2)sample could quickly release 6.6 wt%hydrogen in 17 min at 220℃,and 6.8 wt%H_(2)was absorbed in 25 min at 200℃.Cyclic testing revealed that MgH_(2)+5 wt%S-Ti_(3)C_(2)system achieved a reversible hydrogen capacity of 6.5 wt%.Characterization analysis demonstrated that Ti-species(Ti0,Ti^(2+),Ti-S,and Ti^(3+))as active species significantly lowered the dehydrogenation temperature and promoted the re-/dehydrogenation kinetics of MgH_(2),and sulfur doping can effectively improve the stability of Ti0 and Ti^(3+),contributing to the improvement of cyclic stability of MgH_(2).This study provides strategy for the construction of catalysts for hydrogen storage materials.

文摘A cyclic quenching treatment(CQT)succeeded in turning a 2.3 GPa maraging steel with a Charpy impact energy of 9 J into a new grade with the same strength but a Charpy impact energy of 20 J upon 4 cyclic treatments.The improvement of mechanical properties is attributed to the refinement and increased chemical heterogeneity of the martensitic substructure,rather than the refinement of prior austenite grain(PAG),as well as the Transformation-Induced Plasticity(TRIP)effect facilitated by small austenite grains.The role of local segregation of Ni during CQT in the formation of Ni-rich austenite grains,Ni-rich martensite laths and Ni-poor martensite laths,was investigated and verified by DICTRA simulations.This study highlights the important influence of Ni partitioning behavior during CQT,providing insights into microstructural evolution and mechanical properties.

文摘To completely recover valuable elements and reduce the amount of waste,the impact of phosphoric acid on the decomposition of rare earth,fluorine and phosphorus during cyclic leaching was studied based on the characteristics of low-tempe rature sulfuric acid deco mposition.When a single monazite was leached using 75 wt% H_(2)SO_(4) solution with phosphoric acid,the size and number of monazite particles in the washing slag gradually decrease with the increase in phosphoric acid content in the leaching solution.The monazite phase can hardly be found in the slag when the phosphoric acid content reaches 70 g/L,which indicates that phosphoric acid is favorable for monazite decomposition.The mixed rare earth concentrate was leached by 75 wt% H_(2)SO_(4) containing 70 g/L phosphoric acid,the mineral compositions of the washing slag are only gypsum and unwashed rare earth sulfuric acid.After cyclic leaching of75 wt% H_(2)SO_(4),the mineral compositions of the primary leaching washing slag are mainly undecomposed monazite,rare earth sulfate and calcium sulfate.However,monazite is not found in the mineral phase of the second and third leaching washing slag.The leaching rates of rare earth and phosphorus gradually increase with the increase in cyclic leaching times.In addition,the phosphoric acid content in the leaching solution increases with the increase in the number of cyclic leaching time.However,the rising trend decreases when the phosphoric acid content reaches 50 g/L by adsorption and crystallization of phosphoric acid.A small amount of water can be used to clean the leaching residue before washing to recover the more soluble phosphorus acid according to the difference of dissolution between phosphoric acid and rare earth sulfuric acid.
文摘Purpose–The study aims to build a high-precision longitudinal dynamics model for heavy-haul trains and validate it with line test data,present an optimization method for multi-stage cyclic brakes based on the model and conduct a multi-objective detailed evaluation of the driver’s manipulation during cyclic braking.Design/methodology/approach–The high-precision longitudinal train dynamics model was established and verified by the cyclic braking test data of the 20,000 t heavy-haul combination train on the long and steep downgrade.Then the genetic algorithm is employed for optimization subsequent to decoupling multiple cyclic braking procedures,with due consideration of driver operation rules.For evaluation,key manipulation assessments in the scenario are prioritized,supplemented by multi-objective evaluation requirements,and the computational model is employed for detailed evaluation analysis.Findings–Based on the model,experimental data reveal that the probability of longitudinal force error being less than 64.6 kN is approximately 68%,95%for less than 129.2 kN and 99.7%for less than 193.8 kN.Upon optimizing manipulations during the cyclic braking,the maximum reduction in coupler force spans from 21%∼23.9%.Andtheevaluation scoresimply that a proper elevationof the releasingspeed favorssafety.A high electric braking force,although beneficial to some extent for energy-saving,is detrimental to reducing coupler force.Originality/value–The results will provide a theoretical basis and practical guidance for further ensuring the safety and energy-efficient operation of heavy haul trains on long downhill sections and improving the operational quality of heavy-haul trains.

文摘Traumatic brain injury involves complex pathophysiological mechanisms,among which oxidative stress significantly contributes to the occurrence of secondary injury.In this study,we evaluated hypidone hydrochloride(YL-0919),a self-developed antidepressant with selective sigma-1 receptor agonist properties,and its associated mechanisms and targets in traumatic brain injury.Behavioral experiments to assess functional deficits were followed by assessment of neuronal damage through histological analyses and examination of blood-brain barrier permeability and brain edema.Next,we investigated the antioxidative effects of YL-0919 by assessing the levels of traditional markers of oxidative stress in vivo in mice and in vitro in HT22 cells.Finally,the targeted action of YL-0919 was verified by employing a sigma-1 receptor antagonist(BD-1047).Our findings demonstrated that YL-0919 markedly improved deficits in motor function and spatial cognition on day 3 post traumatic brain injury,while also decreasing neuronal mortality and reversing blood-brain barrier disruption and brain edema.Furthermore,YL-0919 effectively combated oxidative stress both in vivo and in vitro.The protective effects of YL-0919 were partially inhibited by BD-1047.These results indicated that YL-0919 relieved impairments in motor and spatial cognition by restraining oxidative stress,a neuroprotective effect that was partially reversed by the sigma-1 receptor antagonist BD-1047.YL-0919 may have potential as a new treatment for traumatic brain injury.

文摘Magnesium matrix composites with both high strength and ductility have been achieved by introducing pure Ti particles.However,the properties of the surfaces of the composites need to be improved by surface technology,such as micro-arc oxidation(MAO).In this study,we investigated the influence of the Ti-reinforcement phase on coating growth and evolution by subjecting both AZ91 alloy and AZ91/Ti composite to MAO treatment using silicate-based and phosphate-based electrolytes.Results revealed that the Ti-reinforcement phase influenced the MAO process,altering discharge behavior,and leading to a decreased cell voltage.The vigorous discharge of the Ti-reinforcement phase induced the formation of coating discharge channels,concurrently dissolving and oxidizing Ti-reinforcement to produce a composite ceramic coating with TiO2.The MAO coating on the AZ91/Ti composite exhibited a dark blue macromorphology and distinctive local micromorphological anomalies.In silicate electrolyte,a“volcano-like”localized morphology centered on the discharge channel emerged.In contrast,treatment in phosphate-based electrolyte resulted in a coating morphology similar to typical porous ceramic coatings,with visible radial discharge micropores at the reinforcement phase location.Compared to the AZ91 alloy,the coating on the AZ91/Ti composite exhibited lower thickness and higher porosity.MAO treatment reduced the self-corrosion current density of the AZ91/Ti surface by two orders of magnitude.The silicate coating demonstrated better corrosion resistance than the phosphate coating,attributed to its lower porosity.The formation mechanism of MAO coatings on AZ91/Ti composites in phosphate-based and silicate-based electrolytes was proposed.

文摘Nano-zinc oxides(ZnO)demonstrate remarkable antibacterial properties.To further enhance the corrosion resistance and antibacterial efficiency of magnesium alloy micro-arc oxidation(MAO)coatings,this study investigates the preparation of ZnO-containing micro-arc oxidation coatings with dual functionality by incorporating nano-ZnO into MAO electrolyte.The influence of varying ZnO concentrations on the microstructure,corrosion resistance,and antibacterial properties of the coating was examined through microstructure analysis,immersion tests,electrochemical experiments,and antibacterial assays.The findings revealed that the addition of nano-ZnO significantly enhanced the corrosion resistance of the MAO-coated alloy.Specifically,when the ZnO concentration in the electrolyte was 5 g/L,the corrosion rate was more than ten times lower compared to the MAO coatings without ZnO.Moreover,the antibacterial efficacy of ZnO+MAO coating,prepared with a ZnO concentration of 5 g/L,surpassed 95%after 24 h of co-culturing with Staphylococcus aureus(S.aureus).The nano-ZnO+MAO-coated alloy exhibited exceptional degradation resistance,corrosion resistance,and antibacterial effectiveness.

文摘This study presents a novel approach to improving the anticorrosive performance of AZ31 Mg alloy by exploiting the role of the hydration reaction to induce interactions between Quinolin-8-ol(8HQ)molecules and the porous MgO layer formed via plasma electrolytic oxidation(PEO).The AZ31 Mg alloy,initially coated with a PEO layer,underwent a dipping treatment in an ethanolic solution of 0.05 M 8HQ at 50℃ for 3 h.The results were compared with those from a different procedure where the PEO layer was subjected to a hydration reaction for 2 h at 90℃ before immersion in the 8HQ solution under the same conditions.The hydration treatment played a crucial role by converting MgO to Mg(OH)_(2),significantly enhancing the surface reactivity.This transformation introduced hydroxyl groups(−OH)on the surface,which facilitated donor-acceptor interactions with the electron-accepting sites on 8HQ molecules.The calculated binding energy(Ebinding)from DFT indicated that the interaction energy of 8HQ with Mg(OH)_(2) was lower compared to 8HQ with MgO,suggesting easier adsorption of 8HQ molecules on the hydrated surface.This,combined with the increased number of active sites and enhanced surface area,allowed for extensive surface coverage by 8HQ,leading to the formation of a stable,flake-like protective layer that sealed the majority of pores on the PEO layer.DFT calculations further suggested that the hydration treatment provided multiple active sites,enabling effective contact with 8HQ and rapid electron transfer,creating ideal conditions for charge-transfer-induced physical and chemical bonding.This study shows that hydration and 8HQ treatments significantly enhance the corrosion resistance of Mg alloys,highlighting their potential for advanced anticorrosive coatings.

文摘A Cr/CoNiCrAlTaY bilayer coating was prepared on the Ti-45Al-8.5Nb alloy by plasma surface metallurgy technique.The as-prepared coating with a grain size of~2μm exhibited a dense microstructure and strong adhesion due to metallurgical bonding,consisting of outermost Cr layer and CoNiCrAlTaY transition layer.The typical power-law relationship between mass gain and time was obtained for the coated specimens with a rate exponent of 3.18 following oxidation at 1173 K.The top Cr_(2)O_(3)film and spinel oxides(i.e.,NiCr_(2)O_(4)and CoCr_(2)O_(4))exhibited a protective effect with a low oxidation reaction rate.Interfacial analysis identified Ta precipitates(Cr_(2)Ta and TaAl_(3))and Ta oxides(Ta_(2)O_(5)and Ta_(2)O_(3)),which played an essential role in retarding rapid diffusion and enhancing adhesion and oxidation resistance.

文摘Silicide coatings have proven to be promising for improving the high-temperature oxidation resistance of niobium alloy.However,the long-term protective property of single silicide coating remains a long-time endeavor due to the deficiency of oxygen-consuming phases,as well as the self-healing ability of the protective layer.Herein,a silicide-based composite coating is constructed on niobium alloy by incor-poration of nano-SiC particles for enhancing the high-temperature oxidation resistance.Isothermal oxi-dation results at 1250℃ for 50 h indicate that NbSi_(2)/Nb_(2)O_(5)-SiO_(2)/SiC multilayer coated sample with a low mass gain of 2.49 mg/cm^(2) shows an improved oxidation resistance compared with NbSi_(2) coating(6.49 mg/cm^(2)).The enhanced high-temperature antioxidant performance of NbSi_(2)/Nb_(2)O_(5)-SiO_(2)/SiC multi-layer coating is mainly attributed to the formation of the protective SiO_(2) self-healing film and the high-temperature diffusion behavior of NbSi_(2)/substrate.
