文摘Zirconium-based conversion coatings have emerged as an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional phosphate coatings in the automotive industry,offering excellent corrosion resistance and effective protection for metal substrates.However,due to their relatively recent use in industrial applications,process control during zirconium conversion coating remains underdeveloped.In this study,the reaction kinetics of galvanized steel during the zirconium conversion coating were investigated systematically.The findings reveal an optimal coating time,after which the corrosion resistance of galvanized steel decreases.This decline results from the formation of corrosion cavities that cause discontinuities in the protective zirconium layer.These insights provide guidance for optimizing zirconium conversion coating processes in industrial manufacturing.

文摘Catalytic CO_(2)-to-methanol conversion presents a synergistic approach for concurrent greenhouse gas abatement and sustainable energy carrier synthesis.Single-atom catalysts(SACs)with maximized atomic utilization,tailored electronic configurations and unique metal-support interactions,exhibit superior performance in CO_(2) activation and methanol synthesis.This review systematically compares reaction mechanisms and pathways across thermal,photocatalytic and electrocatalytic systems,emphasizing structure-activity relationships governed by active sites,coordination microenvironments and support functionalities.Through case studies of representative SACs,we elucidate how metal-support synergies dictate intermediate binding energetics and methanol selectivity.A critical analysis of reaction parameters(e.g.,temperature,pressure)reveals condition-dependent catalytic behaviors in thermal system,with fewer studies in photo/electrocatalytic systems identified as key knowledge gaps.While thermal catalysis achieves industrially viable methanol yields,the scalability is constrained by energy-intensive operation and catalyst sintering.Conversely,photo/electrocatalytic routes offer renewable energy integration but suffer from inefficient charge dynamics and mass transport limitations.To address the challenges,we propose strategic research priorities on precise design of active sites,synergy of multiple technological pathways,development of intelligent catalytic systems and diverse CO_(2) feedstock compatibility.These insights establish a framework for developing next-generation SACs,offering both theoretical foundations and technological blueprints for developing carbon-negative catalytic technologies.

文摘Two-dimensional nanofluidic membranes have garnered considerable interest due to their potential for cost-effective osmotic energy harvesting.One promising approach to enhancing ion conductivity and selectivity is the incorporation of vip additives.However,the traditional host-vip configuration can undermine the structural integrity of nanochannels owing to the inconsistent size and shape of these additives.Drawing inspiration from the intricate design of biological protein channels,which utilize small amino acid molecules as vips,we have addressed this issue by incorporating glycine,a common amino acid,into a vermiculite membrane using a simple vacuum-assisted infiltration method.The resulting vermiculite-glycine membrane demonstrates 1.8 times greater ionic conductivity and twice the power density compared to pure vermiculite membranes.Analysis based on glycine content,coupled with spectroscopic examination,reveals that ion conductivity is linked to the distribution of glycine molecules across three specific sites within the membrane.This suggests that glycine molecules—whether confined in voids,adsorbed onto nanochannel surfaces,or intercalated within multilayered vermiculite nanoparticles—enhance nanofluidic ion transport by modulating surface and space charge density,as well as strengthening hydrogen bonding,electrostatic interactions,and steric effects.This work reveals the specific interactions between amino acids and vermiculite,offering a novel path for advancing nanofluidic composite membranes and highlighting critical considerations for the proposed strategy.
文摘Conventional locking/release mechanisms often face challenges in aircraft wing separation processes,such as excessive impact loads and insufficient synchronization.These may cause structural damage to the airframe or attitude instability,seriously compromising mission reliability.To address this engineering challenge,this paper proposes a multi-point low-impact locking/release mechanism based on the mobility model and energy conversion strategy.Through establishing a DOF constraint framework system,this paper systematically analyzes the energy transfer and conversion characteristics during the wing separation process,reveals the generation mechanism of impact loads,and conducts research on low-impact design based on energy conversion strategy.Building on this foundation,a single-point locking/release mechanism employing parallel trapezoidal key shaft structure was designed,which increases frictional contact time and reduces the energy release rate,thereby achieving low-impact characteristics.The mechanism's performance was validated through physical prototype development and systematic functional testing(including unlocking force,synchronization,and impact tests).Experimental results demonstrate:(1)Under 14 kN preload condition,the maximum unlocking force was only 92.54 N,showing a linear relationship with preload that satisfies the"strong-connection/weak-unlock"design requirement;(2)Wing separation was completed within 46 ms,with synchronization time difference among three separation mechanisms stably controlled within 12-14 ms,proving rapid and reliable operation;(3)The unlocking impact acceleration ranged between 26 and 73 g,below the 100 g design limit,confirming the effectiveness of the energy conversion strategy.The proposed low-impact locking/release mechanism design method based on energy conversion strategy resolves the traditional challenges of high impact and synchronization deficiencies.The synergistic optimization mechanism of"structural load reduction and performance improvement"provides a highly reliable technical solution for wing separable mechanisms while offering novel design insights for wing connection/separation systems engineering.

文摘As a controllable power generation method requiring no energy storage,Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion(OTEC)technology demonstrates characteristics of abundant reserves,low pollution,and round-the-clock stable operation.The free-standing cold-water pipe(CWP)in the system withstands various complex loads during operation,posing potential failure risks.To reveal the deformation and stress mechanisms of OTEC CWPs,this study first analyzes wave particle velocity and acceleration to determine wave loads at different water depths.Based on the Euler-Bernoulli beam model,a quasi-static load calculation model for OTEC CWPs was established.The governing equations were discretized using the finite difference method,and matrix equations were solved to analyze bending deformation,bending moments,and surface stresses at discrete points along the pipe.Results indicate that water depths within 50 m represent a critical zone where wave particle velocity,acceleration,and wave loads exhibit significant variations in harmonic patterns,while beyond 50 m depth wave loads decrease linearly.Ocean currents and surface wind-driven currents substantially influence the CWP’s lateral displacement.Considering the effect of clump weights,the maximum lateral displacement occurs at 600–800 m below sea level.Utilizing large-wall-thickness high-strength pipes at the top section significantly enhances the structural safety of the CWP system.

文摘County-to-district conversion(CDC) has restructured the pattern of urban-rural development and influenced the allocation of resources by local governments as well as the urbanization process.However,the impact and mechanism of the CDC on China's urban-rural integration development(URID) are not yet clear.Using panel data from 52 county-level cities,districts,and counties in Jiangsu Province of China during 2005–2021,this paper constructed an evaluation system for URID and applied the multi-period difference-in-differences(DID) model to measure the impact of the CDC on URID and identify its primary mechanisms of action.The results demonstrated that the CDC has significantly fostered URID,though with pronounced regional heterogeneity.Specifically,while the CDC facilitated URID in the southern and central Jiangsu Province—regions characterized by high socio-economic development—it exerted a less significant impact in the comparatively underdeveloped northern Jiangsu Province.Mechanistically,the implementation of the CDC promotes equal regional development,enhances rural selfdevelopment capacity,improves environmental quality and living standards,and optimizes urban-rural land allocation and transport networks.Ultimately,this study clarifies the role of the CDC in China,provides insights for achieving URID,and offers a reference for other countries pursuing coordinated urban-rural development.
文摘Adult neurogenesis is generally considered to be very limited;however,there is increasing evidence that this phenomenon is conserved across species.Traditionally,research has focused on identifying precursor cells,those that are actively dividing or have the potential to divide.Direct evidence of adult neurogenesis has been found in rats,mice,songbirds,and nonhuman primates.In humans,while the evidence is indirect,it strongly suggests that neurogenesis also occurs during adulthood.In mammals,this active neurogenesis is preserved by radial glial progenitors,which remain in specific niches in the subventricular zone of the lateral ventricles and in the subgranular zone of the hippocampal dentate gyrus(Kumar et al.,2019).

文摘Cuprous oxide(Cu_(2)O) is one of the most promising catalysts for electrochemical conversion of CO_(2) into value-added C_(2) products.The efficiency of CO_(2)-to-C_(2) conversion is highly dependent on the Cu_(2)O crystal plane orientation and the corresponding adsorbed ^(*)CO species.Herein,we constructed high-index crystal planes(311) in Cu_(2)O(CO-Cu_(2)O) via a facile self-selective CO-induced strategy under a CO atmosphere,which was verified by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy(HR-TEM) and atomic force microscopy(AFM) results.By exploiting the high surface energy of the high index crystal planes,^(*)CO species are stabilized in CO-Cu_(2)O during CO_(2)RR,resulting in exceptional catalytic performance for CO_(2)-to-C_(2)products.In situ infrared spectroscopy revealed that both atop-type(^(*)CO_(atop)) and hollow-type(^(*)CO_(hollow)) adsorption of ^(*)CO species occurred on the CO-Cu_(2)O.The asymmetric C-C coupling energy barrier between ^(*)CO_(atop) and ^(*)CO_(hollow) in(311) crystal plane decreases by 47.8 % compared to the symmetric coupling of ^(*)CO_(atop) in conventional(100) crystal planes.Consequently,the Faradaic efficiency of C_(2) products generated with CO-Cu_(2)O was increased by as high as 100 % compared to that with pristine Cu_(2)O.

文摘Methanol,a crucial C1 intermediate,bridges traditional fossil-based chemical processes with emerging sustainable catalytic technologies by serving as both a versatile hydrogenation product from CO/CO_(2)and an active intermediate for hydrocarbon synthesis.Despite significant progress in methanol-to-hydrocarbon(MTH)conversion,a comprehensive understanding of reaction mechanisms remains essential to enhance catalyst design and industrial applicability.This review critically synthesizes recent advances in mechanistic insights related to methanol conversion and methanol-mediated catalytic processes.Firstly,we systematically outline key reaction pathways involved in initial carbon–carbon(C–C)bond formation through direct and indirect mechanisms,emphasizing significant breakthroughs from spectroscopic analyses and theoretical calculations.Subsequently,we highlight the autocatalytic characteristics and dual-cycle mechanisms underlying MTH processes,critically evaluating the roles of zeolite structures,pore sizes,topology,and acidity in governing product selectivity and catalyst stability.Additionally,we discuss cutting-edge developments in tandem catalytic systems employing methanol as a pivotal intermediate for CO_(x)hydrogenation,emphasizing the transferable mechanistic principles and catalytic insights.Finally,we identify future research directions,including elucidating precise hydrocarbon pool(HCP)intermediates,optimizing zeolite structures through computational-guided design,and developing robust catalytic systems leveraging advanced characterization methods and artificial intelligence.By integrating multidisciplinary approaches from catalytic science,materials engineering,and reaction engineering,this review provides actionable guidance towards rational design and optimization of advanced catalytic systems for efficient methanol conversion processes.

文摘To boost the practical energy density of lithium-sulfur batteries,replacing conventional solvating electrolytes with sparingly solvating ones has shown promise by enabling solid-state sulfur conversion and reducing electrolyte consumption.However,this approach often compromises sulfur redox kinetics.This study reports a new sulfur conversion pathway distinct from both traditional solvated and sparingly solvated mechanisms.Specifically,sulfur is converted into a mixture of solid and solvated lithium polysulfides(LPSs).Such a hybrid solid/solvating conversion pathway is achieved using a newly formulated moderately solvating electrolyte,accomplishing both lean-electrolyte operation and fast conversion kinetics for lithium-sulfur batteries.Methoxyacetonitrile(MAN)is selected as the solvent to formulate the moderately solvating electrolyte due to its high relative permittivity(21)that contributes to a high Li+conductivity(11.7 mS cm^(-1) for 1M lithium bis(trifluoromethane sulfonyl)imide in MAN)and low donor number(14.6 kcal mol-1)that reduces the solubility to LPSs to 1/6 of that in mainstream solvating electrolytes.The as-formulated MAN electrolyte enables sulfur cathodes to operate at a low electrolyte-to-sulfur ratio of 2μL mg^(-1) and a low cathode porosity of 52%,displaying excellent prospects for boosting both gravimetric and volumetric energy density.

文摘Herein,one-pot chemocatalytic conversion of xylose to value-added C_(5)/C_(4) cyclic ethers over a novel ZrO_(2)-doped Ni-Pd catalyst supported on H-βzeolite was demonstrated.Optimized catalyst,namely,Ni_(2) Pd_(0.5)Zr_(1)/H-β(25),achieved a high xylose transformation(>99%)with high selectivities toward 2-methyltetrahydrofuran(48.6%)and tetrahydropyran(20.2%)under mild reaction conditions(200℃,1.0 MPa H_(2),and 2 h).Systematic investigation of the physicochemical properties of the catalyst revealed that ZrO_(2) doping induced O vacancies,enhanced H_(2) activation,and improved metal dispersion,thereby promoting hydrogenation and hydrodeoxygenation.In situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy using furfural and furfuryl alcohol probes confirmed preferential adsorption geometries and electronic interactions at metal-ZrO_(2) interfaces.Time-resolved and feedstock variation studies further elucidated the reaction mechanism and highlighted the roles of key intermediates.The proposed catalyst exhibited excellent recyclability with only a minor decline in performance after multiple xylose conversion cycles.This study provides mechanistic insights and design principles for the development of efficient multifunctional catalysts for biomass valorization.

文摘In-situ heating conversion is the most practical recovery method for lacustrine low-to-medium maturity shale oil.However,the energy output-input ratio must exceed the economic threshold to achieve commercial development.This paper systematically investigates the mechanism of super-rich accumulation of organic matter in continental shale,sweet spot evaluation,optimal heating windows,and appropriate well types and patterns from the perspectives of enhancing energy output and reducing energy input.(1)The super-rich accumulation of organic matter in lacustrine shale is primarily controlled by the intensity,frequency,and preservation of external material inputs,and is related to moderate volcanic and hydrothermal activities,marine transgressions,with total organic carbon content greater than or equal to 6%.(2)The quality of organic-rich intervals is related to the type of source material and hydrocarbon generation potential.The in-situ conversion-derived hydrocarbon quality index(HQI)is established,and the zones exhibiting HQI>450 are defined as sweet spots.(3)Considering the characteristics of the organic matter conversion material field and seepage field,the temperature interval 300-370℃is recommended as the optimal heating window for the Chang 7_(3)sub-member of the Triassic Yanchang Formation in the Ordos Basin.Based on the advantages of thermal conductivity,permeability,and hydrocarbon expulsion efficiency along the bedding direction during in-situ heating,the“horizontal well heating+vertical well development”scheme is proposed,which has demonstrated significant enhancement in both recovery factor and energy output-input ratio,making it the optimal in-situ conversion process.The research findings provide a theoretical and technical foundation for the economical and efficient development of low-to-medium maturity shale oil.
