The as-fabricated anatase TiO2 thin film-based conductometric sensors were employed to measure the gas sensitivity to ethanol. The results showed that Fe ions could be easily introduced into the MAO-TiO2 thin films by adding precursor K4(FeCN)6'3H20 into the NaaPO4 electrolyte. The amount of doped Fe ions increased almost linearly with the concentration of Kg(FeCN)63H20 increasing, eventually affecting the ethanol sensing performances of TiO2 thin films. It was found that the enhanced sensor signals obtained had an optimal concentration of Fe dopant (1.28at%), by which the maximal gas sensor signal to 1000 ppm ethanol was estimated to be 7.91 at 275℃. The response time was generally reduced by doped Fe ions, which could be ascribed to the increase of oxygen vacancies caused by Fe3+ substituting for Ti4+.展开更多

文摘Micro-arc oxidation(MAO)is an effective approach to promote the surface properties of biomedical multi-principal element alloys(bio-MPEAs)as a new generation of bio-metals for hard tissue substitution.However,current understanding on the relationship between the microstructure and corrosion resistance of bioMPEA-based MAO coatings is still limited.In this study,Ti,TiNbZr medium entropy alloy(MEA)and TiNbZrTaHf high entropy alloy(HEA)were selected as the substrate materials for MAO treatment.The results show that bioMPEA-based MAO coatings are quite different from Tibased MAO coatings in both thickness and microstructure.The overall thickness of MAO coatings is in an order of HEA≈MEA>Ti,while the thickness of the inner layers follows the trend of MEA>HEA>Ti.The bio-MPEAbased MAO coatings are composed of an outer layer with nanocrystalline/amorphous composite structure and an amorphous inner layer,while Ti-based MAO coatings are consisted of an amorphous outer layer and an inner layer of rutile TiO_(2).The corrosion resistance of MAO coatings is ranked as MEA>HEA>Ti,evidenced by the initial and long-term corrosion performance.Moreover,the in vitro experiments confirm the favorable cytocompatibility of all coatings.Together,the results indicate that the growth behavior and micro structure of MAO coatings on bioMPEAs are distinct from those on Ti,which are responsible for their superior corrosion resistance.

文摘Micro-arc oxidation(MAO)flm can only provide common mechanical protection for magnesium(Mg)–lithium(Li)alloys.These alloys are susceptible to severe localized corrosion,if the MAO flm is disrupted.This work reports the successful hydrothermal preparation of a MgLiAlCe-LDHs@GO flm on a MAO-coated Mg–Li alloy following Ce confnement.The graphene oxide(GO)sheet increased the difusion path of the corrosive media,and the addition of rare-earth cerium ions(Ce^(3+))endowed the flm with a certain self-healing ability,which signifcantly improved the corrosion resistance of the flm,and the corrosion current density(icorr)reached 3.27×10^(−8)A cm^(−2).The synergistic action of GO and Ce^(3+)can achieve long-term corrosion protection for the substrate.The corrosion resistance mechanism of MgLiAlCe-LDHs@GO flm was discussed by the scanning vibration electrode technique(SVET).

文摘Propylene oxide(PO)is an important petrochemical materials used to produce downstream products such as propylene glycol(PG),polyether polyols,and dipropylene glycol(DPG).Among these,DPG is commonly used as a solvent for fragrances,cosmetics,food additives,and detergents,and can also be served as a moisturizer in cosmetics,showing broad application prospects.The distribution of DPG isomers in the products synthesized from PO and PG has a significant impactΔrGΔrHΔfHθΔfGθPO+PG⇌DPG PO+DPG⇌TPG PG+PG⇌DPG+H_(2)O PG+DPG⇌TPG+H_(2)O on the quality of the products.Therefore,conducting thermodynamic calculation on the reaction of PO and PG to synthesize DPG can provide a theoretical basis for practical operations and product distribution regulation.So,in this paper,the thermodynamic parameters of PO,1,2-PG,H_(2)O,tripropylene glycol(TPG)and three isomers of DPG under different reaction conditions is calculated.Additionally,the,and lnK for four potential reactions at various reaction temperatures and pressures are calculated.By designing isodesmic reactions and combining the results of thermodynamic calculations,the and for the isomers of DPG are obtained,and the relative error is less than 7%.The results show that in the process of preparing DPG by PO and PG,when PO∶PG=1,the reaction temperature ranges from 298.15 to 413.15 K,and the pressure ranges from 101.325 to 506.625 kPa,the reactions of and are thermodynamically spontaneous.While the reactions of and are thermodynamically unspontaneous.The optimal reaction temperature and pressure are 413.15 K and 101.325 kPa.The thermodynamic stability of the three isomers is DPG1>DPG2>DPG3 under standard conditions.The accuracy of the computational results is verified through experimental design,and based on this,the factors affecting product distribution are analyzed.
文摘Black nickel coatings have emerged as a research hotspot in materials science due to their excellent performance and broad application prospects.In this study,nickel-based black coatings were fabricated on low-carbon steel substrates via photo-assisted electrodeposition.A systematic investigation was conducted on the effects of cerium ion concentration and nano-ceria(CeO_(2))particle content in the electrolyte on the coating properties,along with an analysis of the temporal evolution of coating’s corrosion resistance.When the cerium ion concentration in the electrolyte was 0.05 mol/L,the coating exhibited a uniform black appearance with a light absorption rate of 95%,an emissivity of 0.87,maximum impedance,and the lowest corrosion tendency,demonstrating optimal comprehensive performance.The coating prepared with a nano-ceria concentration of 6 g/L in the electrolyte exhibited an emissivity of 0.9,achieved a 5B adhesion grade(ASTM D3359-09),and demonstrated a one-order-of-magnitude reduction in corrosion current density compared to coatings fabricated without nano-ceria in the electrolyte.With prolonged storage time,the coating's impedance slightly increased,leading to improved corrosion resistance.

文摘In this study,a novel polysaccharide GPA-G 2-H was derived from ginseng.Furthermore,the coherent study of its structural characteristics,fermented characteristics in vitro,as well as antioxidant mechanism of fermented product FGPA-G 2-H on Aβ25-35-induced PC 12 cells were explored.The structure of GPA-G 2-H was determined by means of zeta potential analysis,FTIR,HPLC,XRD,GC-MS and NMR.The backbone of GPA-G 2-H was mainly composed of→4)-α-D-Glcp-(1→with branches substituted at O-3.Notably,GPA-G 2-H was degraded by intestinal microbiota in vitro with total sugar content and pH value decreasing,and short-chain fatty acids(SCFAs)increasing.Moreover,GPA-G 2-H significantly promoted the proliferation of Lactobacillus,Muribaculaceae and Weissella,thereby making positive alterations in intestinal microbiota composition.Additionally,FGPA-G 2-H activated the Nrf 2/HO-1 signaling pathway,enhanced HO-1,NQO 1,SOD and GSH-Px,while inhabited Keap 1,MDA and LDH,which alleviated Aβ-induced oxidative stress in PC 12 cells.These provide a solid theoretical basis for the further development of ginseng polysaccharides as functional food and antioxidant drugs.

文摘Carbon fiber-reinforced carbon aerogel(C/CA)composites are one of the most promising candidates for applications requiring both thermal insulation and load bearing capabilities.The preparation of anti-oxidation coatings on C/CA to address its susceptibility to oxidation is a feasible approach to promote its application in oxidative environments.However,the currently reported coatings on C/CA mainly focus on improving the ablation performance and coating preparation process typically necessitating high-temperature heat treatment.This procedure can increase its thermal conductivity and reduce its thermal insulation ability.In this study,a series of ceramic-resin coatings were fabricated on C/CA through a simple slurry brushing-drying approach at room temperature.The effects of phenolic resin content on the coating structure,residual stress,thermal shock,and oxidation behaviors were investigated.Due to the adhesive properties and curing-induced shrinkage,the PR-7.5 coating(containing 7.5%(in mass)phenolic resin in the slurry)exhibits bonding strength close to fracture strength of the substrate and residual compressive stress of 0.853 GPa,which is beneficial for resisting thermal shock cracking.However,excessive resin content(PR-10.0 containing 10.0%(in mass)phenolic resin in the slurry)induces tensile stress due to uneven curing shrinkage,thereby leading to thermal shock cracking.Meanwhile,oxidation tests reveal significantly reduced weight losses for PR-7.5(17.46%at 800℃/100 min,8.15%at 1000℃/120 min,3.15%at 1200℃/120 min)versus uncoated C/CA’s 44.60%loss at 800℃/20 min.This work provides a brand-new and simple approach to improving the anti-oxidation performance of C/CA and expands its application in mild oxidative environments.
文摘It is crucial to develop arsenic removal adsorbents with strong sulfur resistance under middle-low-temperature flue gas conditions(<400℃).In this work,five Fe-Ce-La oxides were prepared by co-precipitation method,and FeCeLaO/SiO_(2)-Al_(2)O_(3) composite adsorbents were prepared by coupling fly ash-based Si-Al carriers.The active components Fe-Ce-La oxides and Si-Al carriers were characterized by TPD,TG,XRF,BET and XPS,respectively.The effects of temperature,Si/Al ratio and FeCeLaO loading rate on the sulfur resistance were investigated.Results show that the SO_(2) promotes the arsenic removal of Fe_(2)O_(3),CeLaO and FeCeLaO.At 400℃,the arsenic removal efficiencies of the three oxides increase from 45.3%,72.5% and 81.3% without SO_(2) to 62.6%,80.5%and 91.0%,respectively.The SO_(2) inhibits the arsenic removal of La_(2)O_(2)CO_(3) and FeLaO,and the inhibition effect is pronounced at high temperatures.The sulfur poisoning resistance of Si-Al carriers increases with the increase of Si/Al ratio.When the Si/Al ratio is increased to 9.74,the arsenic removal efficiency in the SO_(2) environment is 13.9% higher than that in the absence of SO_(2).Introducing FeCeLaO active components is beneficial for enhancing the SO_(2) poisoning resistance of Si-Al carriers.The strong sulfur resistance of the FeCeLaO/SiO_(2)-Al_(2)O_(3) composite adsorbent results from multiple factors:protective effects of Ce on Fe,La and Al;sulfation-induced generation of Ce^(3+)and surface-adsorbed oxygen;and strong surface acidity of SiO_(2).

文摘The aim of this research was to synthesize a new totally bio wood adhesive entailing the use of oxidized starch(OST),urea,and oxidized lignin(OL).For this reason,non-modified(L)and oxidized lignin(OL)at different contents(20%,30%,and 40%)were used to prepare the starch-urea-lignin(SUL)and starch-urea-oxidized lignin(SUOL)resin.Sodium persulfate(SPS)as oxidizer was employed to oxidize both starch and lignin.Urea was just used as a low cost and effective crosslinker in the resin composition.The properties of the synthesized resins and the plywood panels bonded with themweremeasured according to relevant standards.The viscosity and gel time of the SUOL resins containing oxidized lignin are respectively higher and faster than for non-modified lignin(SUL).The lignin phenolic hydroxyl groups(-OH)proportion was markedly increased by oxidation as shown by Fourier Transform Infrared(FTIR)spectrometry.The molecular mass and the polydispersity of the lignin did also decrease by its oxidization pretreatment.DSC analysis showed a decrease of the glass transition temperature of the lignin(Tg)due to its oxidation.The thermal analysis of the oxidized lignin SUOL resin also showed that it had a lower peak temperature than the SUL equivalent non-modified lignin resin.The plywood panels bonded with oxidized lignin gave acceptable bending modulus,bending strength,peak temperature by thermal analysis and dry shear strength as well as a better plywood dimensional stability when used in the SUOL formulation.The synthesized SUOL adhesive is a lignin-derived,totally bio,no-aldehyde added,inexpensive resin applicable to bond plywood.

文摘As a key component of shale oil,petroleum fractions,and chemical products,the oxidative pyrolysis behavior of paraffin directly influences energy conversion efficiency and the direction of process optimization.A deep understanding of its oxidative pyrolysis mechanism is crucial for addressing wax deposition in oil and gas extraction,enhancing product selectivity in cracking processes,and advancing novel clean fuel technologies.Traditional experimental methods face challenges in capturing transient free-radical reaction pathways at high temperatures,whereas molecular dynamics simulations offer a powerful approach to bridge the research gap in elucidating atomic-scale dynamic mechanisms.This database is constructed based on high-precision molecular dynamics simulations,comprising oxidative pyrolysis trajectory data for three paraffin models featuring different straight-chain hydrocarbon distributions within the temperature range of 2100-2500 K.The COMPASS force field was employed to optimize the initial structures,and the ReaxFF reactive force field was used to simulate the oxidative pyrolysis process.The database includes atomic trajectories,species evolution information,and reaction network analysis results for both heating and isothermal cracking processes,with a total data volume of approximately 141 GB(including 150000 atomic configuration frames).The data is stored in a hierarchical directory structure,supporting multi-scale oxidative pyrolysis mechanism studies and providing atomic-scale dynamic evidence for revealing carbon chain length effects and temperature sensitivity.

文摘The limited high-temperature oxidation resistance of Mg alloys is a key factor restricting their development and application.The addition of some rare earth elements(REs),owing to their unique physical and chemical properties,can significantly enhance the oxidation resistance of Mg alloys.Based on our previous study,we conclude that REs such as Gd,Y,and Ce enhance the oxidation resistance of Mg-RE alloys.This article comprehensively reviews recent research progress on high-temperature oxidation behavior and the potential mechanism in Mg-RE alloys.Based on the thermodynamic and kinetic analyses,the evolution of the complex oxide system formed during the high-temperature oxidation of Mg-RE alloys is first summarized.The diffusion behavior and concentration control mechanisms of REs during the oxidation process and how these mechanisms affect the sustained growth of the oxide film and antioxidant properties were elucidated.Moreover,the different structures of the oxide films were classified,and their properties were discussed.Finally,this paper introduces the applications of commonly used REs in Mg alloys and frontier research on their oxidation mechanisms.Based on the above review,we propose that future research perspectives can be explored in terms of expanding the experimental temperature range for oxidation tests,optimizing the chemical composition by adding trace REs to study their synergistic mechanism,revealing the underlying oxidation mechanism through advanced in situ microscopic characterization methods,and investigating the mechanical properties of oxide films using diverse approaches.

文摘To elucidate the accelerated degradation mechanisms of metallic interconnects in operational solid oxide fuel cells,the oxidation behavior of FSS430 ferritic stainless steel under the coupling of simultaneous electrical current and high-temperature exposure is investigated.Isothermal thermogravimetric analysis was employed to quantify oxidation kinetics,complemented by microstructural characterization using X-ray diffraction,scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy.Experimental results demonstrate that the applied current dramatically enhances oxidation rates,increasing specific mass gain from 0.25 mg/cm^(2)(0 A/cm^(2))to 5.20 mg/cm^(2)(0.2 A/cm^(2))and oxide scale thickness from 1.87 to 15.62μm after 200 h.This acceleration originates from current-induced electromigration forces that promote cationic transport through the oxide layer.The quantitative relationships between current density and oxidation parameters are established,enabling predictive modeling of interconnector degradation in solid oxide fuel cell(SOFC)systems.

文摘Ethylene(C_(2)H_(4))in vehicle exhaust is a highly reactive volatile organic compound(VOC).Its photooxidative reaction with NOx contributes to the formation of O3 and secondary organic aerosols(SOA),the latter being a key precursor of PM_(2.5).In this study,a novel MgO-supported Ag-Cu bimetallic catalyst was designed and investigated using density functional theory(DFT).The effects of Ag and Cu loading on the geometric structure,stability,and reactant adsorption characteristics of the catalyst were analyzed,and the catalytic oxidation pathways of C_(2)H_(4)over AgCu-MgO was elucidated.The results indicate that loading Ag significantly enhances the adsorption of C_(2)H_(4).The incorporation of Cu into Ag-MgO to form a AgCu-MgO bimetallic catalyst(dual atom catalyst,DACS)further improves the oxidative activity toward C_(2)H_(4).Based on the binding energies of the Ag and Cu bimetallic sites and the adsorption energies of C_(2)H_(4)and O_(2),three representative configurations were selected for detailed reaction pathway analysis.Among them,Configuration 6 of AgCu-MgO exhibited the highest catalytic oxidation performance.This study provides new atomic-scale insights for the rational design of efficient catalysts targeting olefinic pollutants in automotive emissions and offers valuable guidance for advancing exhaust after-treatment technologies.

文摘Perovskite oxides are highly promising catalysts for the combustion removal of volatile organic compounds(VOCs)due to their excellent stability,structural flexibility,and compositional versatility.This study presents a novel perovskite oxide that exhibits enhanced catalytic activity and superior durability for toluene combustion at reduced temperatures.This improvement is achieved by phosphorus doping at the B-site of LaCoO_(3-δ)(LC)perovskite oxide,followed by post-synthesis acid etching for a proper time.The resulting catalyst demonstrates increased specific surface area,higher total pore volume,and enhanced oxygen vacancy concentration both in the bulk and on the surface.Additionally,the activity of surface lattice oxygen species is significantly improved,leading to enhanced catalytic performance in toluene combustion.Notably,the optimized catalyst shows an exceptionally low activation energy(E_(a))of 49.3 kJ mol^(-1),with a T90 reduction of over 214℃compared to the phosphorus doped LC and 190℃compared to pristine LC.Phosphorus doping plays a main role in significantly improving the long-term durability,particularly in the presence of CO_(2)and H_(2)O,while acid etching boosts the catalytic activity.This work introduces a rational and innovative strategy for optimizing VOC oxidation by improving the structure and surface chemical states of perovskite catalysts.

文摘Severe internal oxidation formed in advanced high-strength steels(AHSSs)during the hot-rolled coiling process compromises subsequent cold rolling and galvanizing processes.Herein,we report how Sn microalloying governs internal oxidation behavior and modulates iron oxide phase transition process.Sn addition significantly reduces the depth of grain boundaries oxidation and the area of internal oxidation,as well as retards the process of oxide scale transformation.Sn preferentially segregates at the iron oxide/substrate interface,forming a diffusion barrier that suppresses outward diffusion of alloying elements and inward oxygen transport.Concurrently,Sn enrichment at grain boundaries obstructs short-circuit oxygen diffusion pathways,significantly reducing the depth of oxidation at the grain boundaries.Furthermore,Sn segregation decreases the interfacial oxygen chemical potential and oxygen availability for selective oxidation reaction.The strategic incorporation of surface-active elements has emerged as a viable metallurgical approach to reduce internal oxidation in hot-rolled coils for AHSS applications.

文摘Coating-free press-hardened steel(CF-PHS)had effectively tackled the challenge of high-temperature oxidation during processing through Cr-Si alloying strategy.However,it is equally essential to investigate its corrosion resistance and the role of the oxide scale in corrosion environments.The corrosion resistance of CF-PHS with and without oxide scale was comprehensively evaluated by analyzing electrochemical processes and corrosion products,as well as characterizing the corroded oxide scale features,while comparing it with commercial 22MnB5 steel.The results indicate that CF-PHS exhibits superior corrosion resistance compared to 22MnB5 steel and the presence of oxide scale may have a negative influence on short-time corrosion resistance.The ultra-thin oxide scale is unable to effectively and timely mitigate pit propagation during the rapid electrochemical tests.Conversely,during the prolonged corrosion process,the oxide scale can still function as the physical barrier to provide protective effects,making the corrosion process develop more slowly and evenly.
