Tie-line compositions were correlated by Othmer-Tobias method. The universal quasichemical functional group activity coefficient (UNIFAC) and modified UNIFAC methods were used to predict the phase equilibrium in the system using the interaction parameters between CH3, CH2, COOH, OH and H2O functional groups. Distribution coefficients and separation factors were evaluated for the immiscibility region.展开更多

This allows carrying over properties of the generalized Whitehead product to these operations. We discuss two classes of binary operations, i.e., the Whitehead products and the torsion products. We also introduce a new class of operations called Ext operations and determine some of its properties. Then we compare the torsion product with the Whitehead product in a special case, and prove that the smash product of two Moore spaces has the homotopy type of a wedge of two Moore spaces.展开更多

However, the reported proton transfer rate in ILs is quite slow. In this study, we report functionalizing imidazolium ILs with alcohol hydroxyls, aiming at constructing hydrogen bonding networks in the electrolyte, can stimulate fast proton hopping transfer. For demonstration, the diffusion of proton and Cl. in 1-(3-hydroxypropyl)-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroboride(C_3OHmimBF_4) were studied using cyclic voltammetry and potentiostatic method at 30 °C. The diffusion coefficient of proton is about one order of magnitude higher than that of Cl. in the same electrolyte, and about 5 times that of proton in the non-hydydroxyl 1-(butyl)-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroboride(BmimBF_4) when normalized to the diffusion coefficients of Cl. in respective ILs. In the meantime, 1H NMR spectra revealed a strong hydrogen bonding interaction between proton and C_3OHmimBF_4 which is absent between proton and BmimBF_4, thus the significantly higher diffusion coefficient of proton in C_3OHmimBF_4 may suggest the formation of effective hydrogen bonding networks, enabling rapid proton hopping via the Grotthuss mechanism.展开更多
