The FT-IR spectra and the Boehm titration were used to characterize the surface chemistry of the synthesized polymers. The GC-MS was applied to analyze nitrobenzene which was the solvent in the reaction. The functionalities such as carbonyls and phenols were formed through the oxidation of residual chloromethyl groups by nitrobenzene and the carboxylic groups were formed through further oxidation by oxygen. The nitrobenzene was deoxidized to nitrosobenzene and further to aniline.展开更多

文摘During the initial impoundment period of a canyon-shaped reservoir,the water body fluctuated violently regarding water level,hydrological condition,and thermal stratification.These variations may alter the structure of phytoplankton community,resulting in algal blooms and seriously threatening the ecological security of the reservoir.It is of great significance to understand the continuous changes of phytoplankton in the initial impoundment period for the protection of reservoir water quality.Therefore,a two-year in-situ monitoring study was conducted on water quality and phytoplankton in a representative canyonshaped reservoir named Sanhekou and the interannual changes of phytoplankton community and its response to environmental changes during the initial impoundment period were discussed at taxonomic versus functional classification levels.The results showed that the total nitrogen and permanganate index levels were relatively high in the first year due to rapid water storage and heavy rainfall input,and the more stable hydrological conditions in the second year promoted the increase of algae density and the transformation of community,and the proportion of cyanobacteria increased significantly.The succession order of phytoplankton in the first year of the initial impoundment periodwas Chlorophyta-Bacillariophyta-Chlorophyta,or J/F/X1-P/MP/W1-A/X1/MP,respectively.And the succession order in the second year was Cyanobacteria/Chlorophyta-Bacillariophyta-Chlorophyta,or L_(M)/G/P-P/A/X1-X1/J/G.Water temperature,relativewater column stability,mixing depth,and pHwere crucial factors affecting phytoplankton community succession.This study revealed the interannual succession law and driving factors of phytoplankton in the initial impoundment period and provided an important reference for the operation management and ecological protection of canyon-shaped reservoirs.
文摘ı-quantum groups,arising from quantum symmetric pairs,are coideal subalgebras of quantum groups.ı-quantum groups are a vast generalization of quantum groups,as quantum groups can be viewed asıquantum groups of diagonal type.Recently,the braid group symmetries and Drinfeld new presentations of quantum groups have been generalized to affineı-quantum groups.In this paper,we construct PBW type bases for splitı-quantum groups of type ADE,based on their braid group symmetries and Drinfeld new presentations.This can be viewed as anı-analogue of the PBW-basis for affine quantum groups,and it generalizes the PBW-basis ofı-quantum groups of finite type.
文摘Acceptor-donor-acceptor(A-D-A)type molecules,of which the novel non-fused azacyclic end-group pyrazoli-nones were modified with chlorine substitution on the phenyl ring,were synthesized.The non-fused azacyclic end-group py-razolinones have the advantages of simple synthesis steps,low cost and environmental friendliness,compared to the classical end-group dicyanomethyleneindianone.The properties of the synthesized A-D-A type molecules with non-fused azacyclic end groups were characterized by theoretical calculation,UV-vis absorption,cyclic voltammetry,X-ray diffraction and space charge limited current.It is shown that the strong UV-vis absorptions of the synthesized A-D-A type molecules are located in the wavelength range of 500~700 nm,with a moderate band gap of nearly 1.7 eV.At the same time,the influence of end-group chlorination on the properties of A-D-A type molecules was compared and explored.It is proven that this kind of A-D-A type molecule with non-fused azacyclic end groups has the potential to be applied as interfacial modified layer of the active layer in perovskite solar cell devices.
文摘In this work,we compute the Grothendieck groups of finite 2-Calabi-Yau triangulated categories with maximal rigid objects which are not cluster tilting.These finite 2-Calabi-Yau triangulated categories are divided into,by the work of Amiot[Bull.Soc.Math.France,2007,135(3):435-474](see also[Adv.Math.,2008,217(6):2443-2484]and[J.Algebra,2016,446:426-449]),three classes:type A,type D and type E.
文摘Lithium-ion capacitors(LICs)combine the high power dens-ity of electrical double-layer capacitors with the high energy density of lithium-ion batteries.However,they face practical limitations due to the narrow operating voltage window of their activated carbon(AC)cathodes.We report a scalable thermal treatment strategy to develop high-voltage-tolerant AC cathodes.Through controlled thermal treatment of commer-cial activated carbon(Raw-AC)under a H_(2)/Ar atmosphere at 400-800℃,the targeted reduction of degradation-prone functional groups can be achieved while preserving the critical pore structure and increasing graph-itic microcrystalline ordering.The AC treated at 400℃(HAC-400)had a significant increase in specific capacity(96.0 vs.75.1 mAh/g at 0.05 A/g)and better rate capability(61.1 vs.36.1 mAh/g at 5 A/g)in half-cell LICs,along with an 83.5%capacity retention over 7400 cycles within an extended voltage range of 2.0-4.2 V in full-cell LICs.Scalability was demonstrated by a 120 g batch production,enabling fabrication of pouch-type LICs with commercial hard carbon anodes that delivered a higher energy density of 28.3 Wh/kg at 1 C,and a peak power density of 12.1 kW/kg compared to devices using raw AC.This simple,industry-compatible approach may be used for producing ad-vanced cathode materials for practical high-performance LICs.
文摘Let G be a finite group.A subgroup H of G is said to be σ-c-propermutable in G if G has a subgroup B such that G=N_(G)(H)B and for every Hall σ_(i)-subgroup B_(i) of B,there exists an element x∈B such that HB_(i)^(x)=B_(i)^(x) H.In this paper,the influence of σ-c-propermutable subgroups on the structure of finite groups is investigated,and some criteria for a normal subgroup of G to be hypercyclically embedded in G are derived.
文摘We find the necessary and sufficient conditions on a coproduct of connected acts over a semigroup to be strongly hopfian. From this, we deduce the conditions of the strong hopfness for unitary acts over groups. Moreover, we prove that a finite coproduct of strongly hopfian acts over an arbitrary semigroup is strongly hopfian.

文摘Let G be a finite group.A generating set X of G is said to be minimal if no proper subset of X generates G.Let d(G)and m(G)denote the smallest size and the largest size of a minimal generating set of G,respectively.In this paper we present a characterization for finite solvable groups G such that m(G)-d(G)=1 and m(G)≥m(G/N)+m(N)for any non-trivial normal subgroup N of G.
文摘Solar-driven CO_(2)conversion and pollutant removal with an S-scheme heterojunction provides promising approach to alleviate energy shortage and environmental crisis,yet the comprehensive regulation of the charge separation and the activation sites of reactant molecules remains challenging.Herein,a dual-active groups regulated S-scheme heterojunction for hydroxy-regulated BiOBr modified amino-functionalized g-C_(3)N_(4)(labeled as HBOB/ACN)was designed by spatially separated dual sites with hydroxyl group(OH)and amino group(NH_(2))toward simultaneously photocatalytic CO_(2)reduction and ciprofloxacin(CIP)oxidation.The optimized HBOB/ACN delivers around 2.74-fold CO yield rate and 1.61-times CIP removal rate in comparison to BiOBr/g-C_(3)N_(4)(BOB/CN)without surface groups,which chiefly ascribed the synergistic effect of OH and NH_(2)group.A series of experiments and theoretical calculation unveiled that the OH and NH_(2)group trapped holes and electrons to participate in CIP oxidation and CO_(2)reduction,respectively.Besides,dual-functional coupled reaction system realized the complete utilization of carriers.This work affords deep insights for dual-group modified S-scheme heterojunctions with redox active sites toward dual-functional coupled reaction system for environment purification and solar fuel production.
