In this study, an environmentally friendly composite coating was prepared by combing modified expanded graphite(EAG) with nano zinc oxide(ZnO). This coating showed superhydrophobic surface and good corrosion resistance. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FITR), X-ray diffraction(XRD),and scanning electron microscopy(SEM) were used to characterize the materials in fabricating process of the coating. The properties of three composite coatings(ZnO,EAG, and EAG@ZnO) were analyzed, including surface roughness, water contact angle, corrosion resistance, selfcleaning and anti-fouling. The combination of ZnO and EAG caused a big water contact angle, leading superhydrophobic surface of the composite coatings. The electrochemical results showed that the superhydrophobic EAG@ZnO coating had a larger capacitive arc diameter and charge transfer resistance, indicating the enhanced anti-corrosion resistance. Meanwhile, the EAG@ZnO coating also showed good self-cleaning and anti-fouling performance according to solid and liquid pollutants tests.In addition, the mechanical properties and stability of the superhydrophobic EAG@ZnO coatings were evaluated by knife peeling and finger scratch tests. In summary, these superhydrophobic and anti-fouling EAG@ZnO composite coatings provide a potential application in marine corrosion and protection field.展开更多

A pretreatment including fluoride activation was applied before the anodizing process. It was found that the anodic film thickness increases as current density or anodizing voltage increases. It is also increased with deposition time until the deposition stops due to the formation of a thick anodic film. Optimization of the anodizing conditions - current density and deposition time- was made for each electrolyte. Characterization of anodizing layer was achieved by determination of surface morphology, microstructure, phase analysis, coat thickness, adhesion and corrosion resistance. In all cases, excellent adhesion and corrosion resistance was obtained. A corrosion efficiency ranging from 94% to 97% was reached;the highest value corresponding to the third electrolyte.展开更多

Fertigation is proposed as a panacea to this dilemma, which by this practice reaffirms the principles of 4Rs which are the right source, at the right rate, right time and right place. The aim of this study was to explore constraints and opportunities for its application in developing countries for environmentally friendly fertilizers application. It is a review of literature from government reports, legislature and published material on fertilization and irrigation initiatives of developing countries which include Rwanda, Nepal, Suriname, Zambia, Panama, Tanzania, Sri Lanka and South Sudan in addition to the case presented of China during the “2016 Environmentally Friendly Fertilizer Production, Application and Demonstration from Developing Countries” training course. The study found that in developing countries there is potential to apply fertigation as a way of environmentally friendly fertilizers application as it has been adopted in China. These opportunities include the following: Abundant natural resources like land and water, less polluted environment, conducive agricultural policies, zero duties levied on imported irrigation equipment. However, a number of limitations also are highlighted including: Lack of investment, lack of infrastructure, lack of information, requires expertise on plant nutrition and management of fertigation system, require soil analysis and proper interpretation which is done by experts. This study provides relevant information for fertigation planning and application in respective developing countries.展开更多

文摘Designing and fabricating the marine anti-corrosion materials without fluorine by superhydrophobic method is a huge challenge. In this study, an environmentally friendly composite coating was prepared by combing modified expanded graphite(EAG) with nano zinc oxide(ZnO). This coating showed superhydrophobic surface and good corrosion resistance. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FITR), X-ray diffraction(XRD),and scanning electron microscopy(SEM) were used to characterize the materials in fabricating process of the coating. The properties of three composite coatings(ZnO,EAG, and EAG@ZnO) were analyzed, including surface roughness, water contact angle, corrosion resistance, selfcleaning and anti-fouling. The combination of ZnO and EAG caused a big water contact angle, leading superhydrophobic surface of the composite coatings. The electrochemical results showed that the superhydrophobic EAG@ZnO coating had a larger capacitive arc diameter and charge transfer resistance, indicating the enhanced anti-corrosion resistance. Meanwhile, the EAG@ZnO coating also showed good self-cleaning and anti-fouling performance according to solid and liquid pollutants tests.In addition, the mechanical properties and stability of the superhydrophobic EAG@ZnO coatings were evaluated by knife peeling and finger scratch tests. In summary, these superhydrophobic and anti-fouling EAG@ZnO composite coatings provide a potential application in marine corrosion and protection field.

文摘The plasticizer is an important polymer material additive.Non-toxic and environmentally friendly plasticizers are developed recently in order to decrease fossil fuel reserves,serious environmental pollution and the toxicity of phthalate esters.In this study,a new,efficient and environmentally friendly plasticizer of hydrogenated rosin dodecyl ester was prepared by an esterification reaction of hydrogenated rosin and dodecanol.The influences of different reaction conditions(including different catalysts,the catalyst concentration,the ratio of the reactants,reaction temperature,and reaction time)on the esterification yield are examined and discussed.Hydrogenated rosin dodecyl ester with 71.8%yield was synthesized under the optimized reaction conditions(1:0.8 molar ratio of rosin to dodecanol,1 mol%tetrabutyl titanate concentration,and 210℃for 6 h).The esterification reaction is a second-order reaction,and kinetic calculations showed that the activation energy is 39.77 KJ·mol^(−1).The structure of the hydrogenated rosin dodecyl ester was confirmed by FT-IR spectroscopy and^(13)C NMR spectrum.Besides,the thermal stability of target product(hydrogenated rosin dodecyl ester)was also tested by thermal gravimetric analysis(TGA),which showed a good thermal stability.
文摘An anodizing process, based on environmental friendly electrolyte solutions has been studied on AZ 91 magnesium alloys by using three types of electrolytes: the first is based on sodium silicate, the second on sodium hydroxide-boric acid-borax and the third on sodium silicate- potassium hydroxide-sodium carbonate-sodium tetra borate. A pretreatment including fluoride activation was applied before the anodizing process. It was found that the anodic film thickness increases as current density or anodizing voltage increases. It is also increased with deposition time until the deposition stops due to the formation of a thick anodic film. Optimization of the anodizing conditions - current density and deposition time- was made for each electrolyte. Characterization of anodizing layer was achieved by determination of surface morphology, microstructure, phase analysis, coat thickness, adhesion and corrosion resistance. In all cases, excellent adhesion and corrosion resistance was obtained. A corrosion efficiency ranging from 94% to 97% was reached;the highest value corresponding to the third electrolyte.

文摘Objective:This study aims to examine the effects of a community-based friendly health clinic(CFHC)program that adopts manual participatory learning(MPL)intervention on the adolescents living in the rural and urban areas of Indonesia to gain further insights into their knowledge,attitudes,and skills related to adolescent reproductive health(ARH).Methods:A quasi-experimental design was used to obtain information on the ARH knowledge,attitudes,and skills of adolescents.Two intervention studies that used similar protocols and measures were conducted.A total of 192 adolescents(96 adolescents from urban and rural areas)participated in the project,and the participants from each area were divided into eight groups.A questionairre was adopted to measure the ARH knowledge,attitudes,and skills of these participants.A content analysis of the logbook entries of these respondents was conducted to identify their ARH-related problems.The questionnairre and self-reported ARH data were collected before and after the eight-week program.Results:The CFHC program significantly increased the ARH attitudes(p=0.045)and skills(p=0.009)of adolescents in the rural area,but only improved the ARH knowledge(p<0.001)of adolescents in both rural and urban areas.Fourteen themes were identified in three dominant categories,namely,schools,families,and communities.Conclusions:The CFHC with MPL intervention can improve the ARH knowledge,attitudes,and skills of adolescents in the rural area,but can only improve the ARH knowledge of adolescents in the urban area.The ARH program must be designed based on the characterictics of these adolescents to improve their life skills during puberty.
文摘There is an increasing concern about agriculture’s role in polluting the environment which makes farmers feel guilty about using fertilizers. Fertigation is proposed as a panacea to this dilemma, which by this practice reaffirms the principles of 4Rs which are the right source, at the right rate, right time and right place. The aim of this study was to explore constraints and opportunities for its application in developing countries for environmentally friendly fertilizers application. It is a review of literature from government reports, legislature and published material on fertilization and irrigation initiatives of developing countries which include Rwanda, Nepal, Suriname, Zambia, Panama, Tanzania, Sri Lanka and South Sudan in addition to the case presented of China during the “2016 Environmentally Friendly Fertilizer Production, Application and Demonstration from Developing Countries” training course. The study found that in developing countries there is potential to apply fertigation as a way of environmentally friendly fertilizers application as it has been adopted in China. These opportunities include the following: Abundant natural resources like land and water, less polluted environment, conducive agricultural policies, zero duties levied on imported irrigation equipment. However, a number of limitations also are highlighted including: Lack of investment, lack of infrastructure, lack of information, requires expertise on plant nutrition and management of fertigation system, require soil analysis and proper interpretation which is done by experts. This study provides relevant information for fertigation planning and application in respective developing countries.

文摘Sizing treatment has shown great potential in improving the interfacial properties of poly(p-phenylene benzodioxazole)(PBO)fiber-reinforced composites,but is severely limited due to the use of flammable and explosive organic solvents.Herein,a new high-efficiency waterborne sizing agent has been developed by using functionalized carbon nanospheres(CNSs)as a nano-reinforcement.Due to abundant oxygen-containing groups,the CNSs greatly improves the surface activity,wettability,and roughness of the PBO fibers.As a result,the interfacial shear strength of the CNSs sized fiber-reinforced composite increases by 79.6%compared with that of the pristine fiber-reinforced composite.Moreover,the excellent mechanical and thermal properties of the PBO fibers remain almost unchanged after sizing treatment.Thus,this work provides an environmentally friendly and scalable method for constructing a strong interface between the PBO fibers and the matrix resins,which makes sense in promoting the application of PBO fiber-reinforced composites in aerospace and military industries.
