Results showed that using low PO（0.1） did not affect the kinetic and final COchemisorption process. Moreover, small additions of oxygen（PO= 0.05） into the mixture flue gas, seemed to increase the COchemisorption. Additionally, the presence of alkaline carbonates modified the COcapture temperature range. COchemisorption kinetic parameters were determined assuming a double exponential model where direct COchemisorption and COchemisorption controlled by diffusion processes are considered.Finally, ionic diffusion was analyzed by ionic conduction analysis, where all the gravimetric and ionic measurements were in good agreement showing different diffusion processes depending on temperature.Finally, the oxygen and alkaline carbonate additions have positive effects during the COchemisorption process in LiAlO, and a possible reaction mechanism is presented.展开更多

The microstructure of the welded steel was observed by optical microscopy （OM）. It is demonstrated that the microstructure of the weld metal consists of acicular ferrite and grain boundary ferrite, while that of heat affected zone （HAZ） is a mixture of acicular ferrite and bainitic ferrite micro- constituents. The microstructure of the base steel is composed of ferrite and pearlite. The anodic dissolution of X80 pipeline steel in simulated Ku＇erle soil solution could be enhanced and the SCC sensitivity increased with the increase of CO2 partial pressure. The SCC mechanism of X80 pipeline is a mixing mechanism of hydrogen embrittlement combined with anodic dissolution, and the hydrogen embrittlement plays a leading role. The higher SCC sensitivity of the weld metal was attributed to the metallurgical transformation, local hardening and residual stress.展开更多

The equilibrated phases and their compositions of the quenched samples were analyzed by using SEM/EPMA （Scanning Electron Microscope/Electron Probe Micro Analysis） and XRD （X Ray Diffraction）. The phase equilibrium results include two cases, the two phase coexistence and the three-phase coexistence in the high Al2O3 region with oxygen partial pressure of either 10.13 Pa or 1.01 × 10^-3 Pa. Effects of oxygen partial pressure and temperature on the liquidus along the primary phase fields of CaO · Al2O3 and CaO · 2Al2O3 were nota hle. With the decrease of oxygen partial pressure, the liquid area expands and the liquidus of CaO · Al2O3 and CaO · 2Al2O3 primary fields moves to the Al2O3-FeOx region. On the other hand, the liquid area of CaO Al2O3-FeOx sys tem extends extremely to the high Al2O3 region with the temperature increasing from 1 400 to 1 500℃, especially at lower oxygen partial pressure. The present experiment results are in good agreement with the calculated ones by FactSage.展开更多

Xray diffraction measurements showed that the films were composed of Cu3N crystallites and exhibited a preferential orientation of the [111] direction at a low nitrogen gas （N2） partial pressure. The film growth preferred the [111] and the [100] direction at a high N2 partial pressure. Such preferential film growth is interpreted as being due to the variation in the Copper （Cu） nitrification rate with the N2 pressure. The N2 partial pressure affects not only the crystal structure of the film but also the deposition rate and the resistivity of the Cu3N film. In our experiment, the deposition rate of Cu3N films was 18 nm/min to 30 nm/min and increased with the N2 partial pressure. The resistivity of the Cu3N films increased sharply with the increasing N2 partial pressure. At a low N2 partial pressure, the Cu3N films showed a metallic conduction mechanism through the Cu path, and at a high N2 partial pressure, the conductivity of the Cu3N films showed a semiconductor conduction mechanism.展开更多

Methods A total of 10 sub-healthy adults at rest were observed and sliding-cup along the governor vessel were conducted with three different parameters, jar-pressure of –0.01~ –0.02 MPa with sliding-cup for 5 min, jar-pressure of –0.02~ –0.03 MPa with sliding-cup for 5 min and jar-pressure of –0.02~ –0.03 MPa with slidingcup for 3 min. Peri Flux System5000 PF5040 module was employed to monitor the changes of transcutaneous partial pressures of oxygen（tcp O2） and carbon dioxide（tcp CO2） in GV 4 at 0 min, 5 min, 10 min, 15 min, 20 min, 25 min and 30 min after sliding-cup with above different interventions in sub-healthy subjects. Results After sliding-cup, tcp O2 increased at first and then decreased over time; there was no difference in tcp O2 after sliding-cupping with different parameters（all P0.05）. After sliding-cup, tcp CO2 decreased; there was no difference in tcp CO2 after sliding-cup with different parameters（all P0.05）. Conclusion Sliding-cup has a sustained effect on the body and can speed up the energy metabolism in the body.展开更多

We used observation-based data of fCO2, surface-ocean CO2 partial pressure (pCO2sea), wind speed and sea surface temperature (SST) to analyze the relationship between the NAO and fCO2 of the subtropical and subpolar NA in winter and summer on the interannual time scale. Based on power spectrum estimation, there are significant interannual signs with a 2–6 year cycle in the NAO indexes and area-averaged fCO2 anomalies in winter and summer from 1980 to 2015. Regression analysis with the 2–6 year filtered data shows that on the interannual scale the response of the fCO2 anomalies to the NAO has an obvious meridional wave-train-like pattern in winter, but a zonal distribution in summer. This seasonal difference is because in winter the fCO2 anomalies are mainly controlled by the NAO-driven wind speed anomalies, which have a meridional distribution pattern, while in summer they are dominated by the NAO-driven SST anomalies, which show distinct zonal difference in the subtropical NA. In addition, in the same season, there are different factors controlling the variation of pCO2sea in different regions. In summer, SST is important to the interannual variation of pCO2sea in the subtropical NA, while some biogeochemical variables probably control the pCO2sea variation in the subpolar NA.展开更多

A porous Mo layer was prefabricated on SiC coated C/C composites, and then MoSi2 and SiC were subsequently prepared in a CVI /CVR process using methyltrichlorosilane （MTS） as precursor. The deposition and reaction mechanism of the MoSi2-SiC composite coating was investigated by X-ray diffraction （XRD） and scanning electron microscopy （SEM）. The oxidation behavior of SiC-MoSi2 coated specimens was tested. The results show that the porous Mo layer can be densified with SiC phase decomposed from MTS, and transformed into SiC-MoSi2 by reacting with MTS as well. A dense composite coating was prepared with optimized deposition parameters. The coated specimen exhibits a good oxidation resistance with a little mass loss of 1.25% after oxidation at 1500 °C for 80 h.展开更多

The anti-oxidation properties under different oxygen partial pressures （OPP） and thermal shock resistance of the SZS coating were investigated. The results show that the SZS coated sample under low OPP, corresponding to the ambient air, during isothermal oxidation was 0.54% in mass gain after 111 h oxidation at 1500 ° C and less than 0.03% in mass loss after 50 h oxidation in high OPP, corresponding to the air flow rate of 36 L/h. Additionally, the residual compressive strengths （RCS） of the SZS coated samples after oxidation for 50 h in high OPP and 80 h in low OPP remain about 70% and 72.5% of those of original C/C samples, respectively. Moreover, the mass loss of SZS coated samples subjected to the thermal cycle from 1500 ° C in high OPP to boiling water for 30 times was merely 1.61%.展开更多

The partial pressure of CO2 （pCO2） in the atmosphere and in surface seawater were determined in the Bering Sea during luly 11-27, 2008, and a large number of seawater samples were taken for total alkalinity （TA） and total dissolved inorganic carbon （DIC） analysis. The distributions of CO2 parameters in the Bering Sea and their controlling factors were discussed. The pCO2 values in surface seawater presented a drastic variation from 148 to 563 laatm （1 μatm = 1.013 25× 10-1Pa）. The lowest pCOz values were observed near the Bering Sea shelf break while the highest pCO2 existed at the western Bering Strait. The Bering Sea generally acts as a net sink for atmospheric CO2 in summer. The air-sea CO2 fluxes in the Bering Sea shelf, slope, and basin were estimated at -9.4, -16.3, and -5.1 mmol/（m2.d）, respectively. The annual uptake of CO2 was about 34 Tg C in the Bering Sea.展开更多

During the survey, the surface seawater partial pressure of CO2 （pCO2） was measured, and sea water samples were collected for CO2 measurement in the Canada Basin. The distribution of pCO2 in the Canada Basin was determined, the influencing factors were addressed, and the air-sea CO2 flux in the Canada Basin was evaluated. The Canada Basin was divided into three regions： the ice-free zone （south of 77°N）, the partially ice-covered zone （77°-80°N）, and the heavily ice-covered zone （north of 80°N）. In the ice-free zone, pCO2 was high （320 to 368 patm, 1 patm=0.101 325 Pa）, primarily due to rapid equilibration with atmospheric CO2 over a short time. In the partially ice-covered zone, the surface pCOs was relatively low （250 to 270 patm） due to ice-edge blooms and icemelt water dilution. In the heavily ice-covered zone, the seawater pCO2 varied between 270 and 300 laatm due to biological COs removal, the transportation of low pCOs water northward, and heavy ice cover. The surface seawater pCO2 during the survey was undersaturated with respect to the atmosphere in the Canada Basin, and it was a net sink for atmospheric CO2. The summertime net CO2 uptake of the ice-free zone, the partially ice-covered zone and the heavily ice-covered zone was （4.14±1.08）, （1.79±0.19）, and （0.57±0.03） Tg/a （calculated by carbon, 1 Tg=10^12 g）, respectively. Overall, the net COs sink of the Canada Basin in the summer of 2008 was （6.5＋1.3） Tg/a, which accounted for 4%-10% of the Arctic Ocean COs sink.展开更多

On th...In the east of China＇s seas, there is a wide range of the continental shelf. The nutrient cycle and the carbon cycle in the east of China＇s seas exhibit a strong variability on seasonal to decadal time scales. On the basis of a regional ocean modeling system（ROMS）, a three dimensional physical-biogeochemical model including the carbon cycle with the resolution（1/12）°×（1/12）° is established to investigate the physical variations, ecosystem responses and carbon cycle consequences in the east of China＇s seas. The ROMS-Nutrient Phytoplankton Zooplankton Detritus（NPZD） model is driven by daily air-sea fluxes（wind stress, long wave radiation, short wave radiation, sensible heat and latent heat, freshwater fluxes） that derived from the National Centers for Environmental Prediction（NCEP） reanalysis2 from 1982 to 2005. The coupled model is capable of reproducing the observed seasonal variation characteristics over the same period in the East China Sea. The integrated air-sea CO_2 flux over the entire east of China＇s seas reveals a strong seasonal cycle, functioning as a source of CO_2 to the atmosphere from June to October, while serving as a sink of CO_2 to the atmosphere in the other months. The 24 a mean value of airsea CO_2 flux over the entire east of China＇s seas is about 1.06 mol/（m^2·a）, which is equivalent to a regional total of3.22 Mt/a, indicating that in the east of China＇s seas there is a sink of CO_2 to the atmosphere. The partial pressure of carbon dioxide in sea water in the east of China＇s seas has an increasing rate of 1.15 μatm/a（1μtm/a=0.101 325Pa）, but p H in sea water has an opposite tendency, which decreases with a rate of 0.001 3 a^（–1） from 1982 to 2005.Biological activity is a dominant factor that controls the pCO_2 air in the east of China＇s seas, and followed by a temperature. The inverse relationship between the interannual variability of air-sea CO_2 flux averaged from the domain area and Ni？o3 SST Index indicates that the carbon cycle in the east of China＇s seas has a high correlation with El Ni？o-Southern Oscillation（ENSO）.展开更多

In surface water, mean O_2 saturation level, partial pressure of CO_2 (pCO_2), and DMS concentrations (and ranges) were 110% (89%–167%), 374μatm (91–640 μatm), and 8.53 nmol L^(-1) (1.10–27.50 nmol L^(-1)), respectively. The sea-to-air fluxes (and ranges) of DMS and CO_2 were 8.24 μmol m^(-2)d^(-1) (0.26–62.77 μmol m^(-2)d^(-1)), and -4.7 mmol m^(-2)d^(-1) (-110.8-31.7 mmol m^(-2)d^(-1)), respectively. Dissolved O_2 was oversaturated, DMS concentrations were relatively high, and this region served as a sink of atmospheric CO_2. The pCO_2 was significantly and negatively correlated with the O_2 saturation level, while the DMS concentration showed different positive relationships with the O_2 saturation level in different water masses. In vertical profiles, a hypoxic zone existed below 20 m at a longitude of 123?E. The stratification of temperature and salinity caused by the Taiwan Warm Current suppressed seawater exchange between upper and lower layers, resulting in the formation of a hypoxic zone. Oxidative de-composition of organic detritus carried by the Changjiang River Diluted Water (CRDW) consumed abundant O_2 and produced additional CO_2. The DMS concentrations decreased because of low phytoplankton biomass in the hypoxic zone. Strong correlations ap-peared between the O_2 saturation level, pCO_2 and DMS concentrations in vertical profiles. Our results strongly suggested that CRDW played an important role in the distributions and relationships of O_2, CO_2, and DMS.展开更多

Based on the recent estimations on the YO1.5-CeO2, ZrO2-CeO2 and ZrO2 -YO1.6 systems, isothermal sections at 1273 and 1 973 K of the ternary CeO2- ZrO2-YO1.5system are calculated. In the system of ZrO2-CeO2-Ce2O3, the complex relation between the nonstoichiometry （y） in CeO2-x, the composition of the ZrO2 -CeO2 solid solution and the oxygen partial pressure （Po2 ） for different ZrO2 containing solid solutions CexZr1-xO2-x. are evaluated from 1 473 to 1 773 K. The relation between the degree of Ce^＋4 reduction to Ce.3 under different Po2 in the fluorite CeO2-xy and CexZr1-xOz-x solid solutions at different temperatures can be used as a guide in the development of functional ceramics.展开更多

文摘El Niño-Southern Oscillation(ENSO)affects the changes in ocean physical elements in Taiwan Strait(TWS)primarily by regulating the strength of the East Asian Winter Monsoon(EAWM)and the intrusion of the Kuroshio.Additionally,the fluctuating impact between nutrient-poor seawater with high dissolved inorganic carbon(DIC)that infiltrates owing to the Kuroshio during El Niño phases and nutrient-rich seawater with low DIC from the South China Sea(SCS)carried by the EAWM during La Niña phases determines the nutrient content in TWS,thereby sculpting appropriate or unsuitable biochemical environment.In this study,based on high-resolution sea-surface partial pressure of carbon dioxide(pCO_(2))data,we investigate the relationship between pCO_(2)level of TWS and ENSO events in winter.The physical mechanisms affecting the anomalous distribution of pCO_(2)level during ENSO are also explored.Stepwise regression was employed to identify the optimal influencing factors for modeling pCO_(2).Results indicate a significant positive correlation between Niño3.4 index and pCO_(2),which is significantly influenced by factors such as sea-surface temperature(SST),chlorophyll-a(Chl a),and DIC.These are related to the anomalously strong Kuroshio intrusion and weaker EAWM during El Niño years.It brings a large amount of high SST water with low nutrient concentration and high DIC,which is detrimental to CO_(2)dissolution and phytoplankton growth over the TWS,leading to an increase in pCO_(2).Conversely,pCO_(2)level is significantly low under the influence of SCS seawater during La Niña years.Based on the characterization of the pCO_(2)level response to ENSO,the carbon balance at TWS can be explored.

文摘The effect of COpartial pressure was evaluated during the COchemisorption in penta lithium aluminate（LiAlO）, using different COand Opartial pressures in the presence or absence of alkaline carbonates. Results showed that using low PO（0.1） did not affect the kinetic and final COchemisorption process. Moreover, small additions of oxygen（PO= 0.05） into the mixture flue gas, seemed to increase the COchemisorption. Additionally, the presence of alkaline carbonates modified the COcapture temperature range. COchemisorption kinetic parameters were determined assuming a double exponential model where direct COchemisorption and COchemisorption controlled by diffusion processes are considered.Finally, ionic diffusion was analyzed by ionic conduction analysis, where all the gravimetric and ionic measurements were in good agreement showing different diffusion processes depending on temperature.Finally, the oxygen and alkaline carbonate additions have positive effects during the COchemisorption process in LiAlO, and a possible reaction mechanism is presented.

文摘The stress corrosion cracking （SCC） behavior of welded X80 pipeline steel in simulated Ku＇erle soil solution was studied by means of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy （EIS） and slow strain rate tests （SSRT）. The microstructure of the welded steel was observed by optical microscopy （OM）. It is demonstrated that the microstructure of the weld metal consists of acicular ferrite and grain boundary ferrite, while that of heat affected zone （HAZ） is a mixture of acicular ferrite and bainitic ferrite micro- constituents. The microstructure of the base steel is composed of ferrite and pearlite. The anodic dissolution of X80 pipeline steel in simulated Ku＇erle soil solution could be enhanced and the SCC sensitivity increased with the increase of CO2 partial pressure. The SCC mechanism of X80 pipeline is a mixing mechanism of hydrogen embrittlement combined with anodic dissolution, and the hydrogen embrittlement plays a leading role. The higher SCC sensitivity of the weld metal was attributed to the metallurgical transformation, local hardening and residual stress.

文摘A high temperature equilibration experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of oxygen partial pres- sure on the phase equilibria and liquidus in CaO-Al2O3- FeOx system with the intermediate oxygen partial pressures of 10.13 Pa and 1.01 × 10^-3 Pa. The equilibrated phases and their compositions of the quenched samples were analyzed by using SEM/EPMA （Scanning Electron Microscope/Electron Probe Micro Analysis） and XRD （X Ray Diffraction）. The phase equilibrium results include two cases, the two phase coexistence and the three-phase coexistence in the high Al2O3 region with oxygen partial pressure of either 10.13 Pa or 1.01 × 10^-3 Pa. Effects of oxygen partial pressure and temperature on the liquidus along the primary phase fields of CaO · Al2O3 and CaO · 2Al2O3 were nota hle. With the decrease of oxygen partial pressure, the liquid area expands and the liquidus of CaO · Al2O3 and CaO · 2Al2O3 primary fields moves to the Al2O3-FeOx region. On the other hand, the liquid area of CaO Al2O3-FeOx sys tem extends extremely to the high Al2O3 region with the temperature increasing from 1 400 to 1 500℃, especially at lower oxygen partial pressure. The present experiment results are in good agreement with the calculated ones by FactSage.

文摘Foreign body reactions to the wear debris and corrosion products from the implants,and bacterial infections are the main factors leading to the implant failures.In order to resolve these problems,the antibacterial TiN/Cu nanocomposite coatings with various N_(2) partial pressures were deposited on 304 stainless steels(SS)using an arc ion plating(AIP)system,named TiN/Cu-x(x=0.5,1.0,1.5 Pa).The results of X-ray diffraction analysis,energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy,and scanning electron microscopy showed that the N_(2) partial pressures determined the Cu contents,surface defects,and crystallite sizes of TiN/Cu nanocomposite coatings,which further influenced the comprehensive abilities.And the hardness and wear resistances of TiN/Cu coatings were enhanced with increase of the crystallite sizes.Under the co-actions of surface defects,crystallite sizes,and Cu content,TiN/Cu-1.0 and TiN/Cu-1.5 coatings possessed excellent corrosion resistance.Besides,the biological tests proved that all the TiN/Cu coatings showed no cytotoxicity with strong antibacterial ability.Among them,TiN/Cu-1.5 coating significantly promoted the cell proliferation,which is expected to be a novel antibacterial,corrosion-resistant,and wear-resistant coating on the surfaces of medical implants.

文摘Copper nitride thin films were deposited on glass substrates by reactive direct current （DC） magnetron sputtering at various N2-gas partial pressures and room temperature. Xray diffraction measurements showed that the films were composed of Cu3N crystallites and exhibited a preferential orientation of the [111] direction at a low nitrogen gas （N2） partial pressure. The film growth preferred the [111] and the [100] direction at a high N2 partial pressure. Such preferential film growth is interpreted as being due to the variation in the Copper （Cu） nitrification rate with the N2 pressure. The N2 partial pressure affects not only the crystal structure of the film but also the deposition rate and the resistivity of the Cu3N film. In our experiment, the deposition rate of Cu3N films was 18 nm/min to 30 nm/min and increased with the N2 partial pressure. The resistivity of the Cu3N films increased sharply with the increasing N2 partial pressure. At a low N2 partial pressure, the Cu3N films showed a metallic conduction mechanism through the Cu path, and at a high N2 partial pressure, the conductivity of the Cu3N films showed a semiconductor conduction mechanism.

文摘Objective To explore the effects of sliding-cup with different parameters on energy metabolism in the body by observing the effect of sliding-cup along the governor vessel on transcutaneous partial pressures of oxygen and carbon dioxide in Mìngmén（命门 GV 4） in sub-healthy people. Methods A total of 10 sub-healthy adults at rest were observed and sliding-cup along the governor vessel were conducted with three different parameters, jar-pressure of –0.01~ –0.02 MPa with sliding-cup for 5 min, jar-pressure of –0.02~ –0.03 MPa with sliding-cup for 5 min and jar-pressure of –0.02~ –0.03 MPa with slidingcup for 3 min. Peri Flux System5000 PF5040 module was employed to monitor the changes of transcutaneous partial pressures of oxygen（tcp O2） and carbon dioxide（tcp CO2） in GV 4 at 0 min, 5 min, 10 min, 15 min, 20 min, 25 min and 30 min after sliding-cup with above different interventions in sub-healthy subjects. Results After sliding-cup, tcp O2 increased at first and then decreased over time; there was no difference in tcp O2 after sliding-cupping with different parameters（all P0.05）. After sliding-cup, tcp CO2 decreased; there was no difference in tcp CO2 after sliding-cup with different parameters（all P0.05）. Conclusion Sliding-cup has a sustained effect on the body and can speed up the energy metabolism in the body.

文摘The differences in the influences of the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) on the air–sea CO2 fluxes (fCO2) in the North Atlantic (NA) between different seasons and between different regions are rarely fully investigated. We used observation-based data of fCO2, surface-ocean CO2 partial pressure (pCO2sea), wind speed and sea surface temperature (SST) to analyze the relationship between the NAO and fCO2 of the subtropical and subpolar NA in winter and summer on the interannual time scale. Based on power spectrum estimation, there are significant interannual signs with a 2–6 year cycle in the NAO indexes and area-averaged fCO2 anomalies in winter and summer from 1980 to 2015. Regression analysis with the 2–6 year filtered data shows that on the interannual scale the response of the fCO2 anomalies to the NAO has an obvious meridional wave-train-like pattern in winter, but a zonal distribution in summer. This seasonal difference is because in winter the fCO2 anomalies are mainly controlled by the NAO-driven wind speed anomalies, which have a meridional distribution pattern, while in summer they are dominated by the NAO-driven SST anomalies, which show distinct zonal difference in the subtropical NA. In addition, in the same season, there are different factors controlling the variation of pCO2sea in different regions. In summer, SST is important to the interannual variation of pCO2sea in the subtropical NA, while some biogeochemical variables probably control the pCO2sea variation in the subpolar NA.

文摘Carbon dioxide(CO_(2))emissions from aquatic ecosystems are an important component of the karst carbon cycle process and also a key indicator for assessing the effect of karst carbon sinks.This paper reviewed the CO_(2)partial pressure(pCO_(2))and its diffusion flux(FCO_(2))in karst surface aquatic ecosystems,mainly rivers,lakes,and reservoirs,and their influencing factors summarized the methods for monitoring CO_(2)emissions in karst aquatic ecosystems and discussed their adaptation conditions in karst areas.The pCO_(2)and FCO_(2)decreased in the order of rivers>reservoirs>lakes,and the values in karst lakes were eventually significantly lower than those in global lakes.The pCO_(2)and FCO_(2)of karst aquatic ecosystems had patterns of variation with diurnal,seasonal,water depth and hydrological cycles,and spatial and temporal hetero-geneity.The sources of CO_(2)in karst waters are influenced by both internal and external sources,and the key spatial and temporal factors affecting the CO_(2)emissions from karst rivers,lakes,and reservoirs were determined in terms of physicochemical indicators,biological factors,and bio-genic elements;additionally,the process of human activity interference on CO_(2)emissions was discussed.Finally,a conceptual model illustrating the impacts of urban devel-opment,agriculture,mining,and dam construction on the CO_(2)emissions at the karst surface aquatic ecosystem is presented.Meanwhile,based on the disadvantages existing in current research,we proposed several important research fields related to CO_(2)emissions from karst surface aquatic ecosystems.
文摘High-temperature experiments were carried out for the slag systems of“FeO”−SiO_(2)−CaO−Al_(2)O_(3)and“FeO”−SiO_(2)−CaO−MgO at 1200℃and p(O_(2))of 10^(−7)kPa.The equilibrated samples were quenched,and the phase compositions were measured by electron probe microanalysis(EPMA).A series of pseudo-ternary and pseudo-binary phase diagrams are constructed to demonstrate their applications in copper smelting process and evaluation of the thermodynamic database.Spinel and tridymite are identified to be the major primary phases in the composition range related to the copper smelting slags.It is found that the operating window of the smelting slag is primarily determined by w_(Fe)/w_(SiO_(2))ratio in the slag.Both MgO and Al_(2)O_(3)in the slag reduce the operating window which requires extra fluxing agent to keep the slag to be fully liquid.Complex spinel solid solutions cause inaccurate predictions of the current thermodynamic database.

文摘In order to protect C/C composites from oxidation, SiC-MoSi2 composite coating was synthesized by chemical vapor infiltration /reaction （CVI/CVR） technology. A porous Mo layer was prefabricated on SiC coated C/C composites, and then MoSi2 and SiC were subsequently prepared in a CVI /CVR process using methyltrichlorosilane （MTS） as precursor. The deposition and reaction mechanism of the MoSi2-SiC composite coating was investigated by X-ray diffraction （XRD） and scanning electron microscopy （SEM）. The oxidation behavior of SiC-MoSi2 coated specimens was tested. The results show that the porous Mo layer can be densified with SiC phase decomposed from MTS, and transformed into SiC-MoSi2 by reacting with MTS as well. A dense composite coating was prepared with optimized deposition parameters. The coated specimen exhibits a good oxidation resistance with a little mass loss of 1.25% after oxidation at 1500 °C for 80 h.

文摘A SiC/ZrSiO4？SiO2 （SZS） coating was successfully fabricated on the carbon/carbon （C/C） composites by pack cementation, slurry painting and sintering to improve the anti-oxidation property and thermal shock resistance. The anti-oxidation properties under different oxygen partial pressures （OPP） and thermal shock resistance of the SZS coating were investigated. The results show that the SZS coated sample under low OPP, corresponding to the ambient air, during isothermal oxidation was 0.54% in mass gain after 111 h oxidation at 1500 ° C and less than 0.03% in mass loss after 50 h oxidation in high OPP, corresponding to the air flow rate of 36 L/h. Additionally, the residual compressive strengths （RCS） of the SZS coated samples after oxidation for 50 h in high OPP and 80 h in low OPP remain about 70% and 72.5% of those of original C/C samples, respectively. Moreover, the mass loss of SZS coated samples subjected to the thermal cycle from 1500 ° C in high OPP to boiling water for 30 times was merely 1.61%.

文摘The 3rd Chinese National Arctic Research Expedition （CHINARE-Arctic III） was carried out from July to September in 2008. The partial pressure of CO2 （pCO2） in the atmosphere and in surface seawater were determined in the Bering Sea during luly 11-27, 2008, and a large number of seawater samples were taken for total alkalinity （TA） and total dissolved inorganic carbon （DIC） analysis. The distributions of CO2 parameters in the Bering Sea and their controlling factors were discussed. The pCO2 values in surface seawater presented a drastic variation from 148 to 563 laatm （1 μatm = 1.013 25× 10-1Pa）. The lowest pCOz values were observed near the Bering Sea shelf break while the highest pCO2 existed at the western Bering Strait. The Bering Sea generally acts as a net sink for atmospheric CO2 in summer. The air-sea CO2 fluxes in the Bering Sea shelf, slope, and basin were estimated at -9.4, -16.3, and -5.1 mmol/（m2.d）, respectively. The annual uptake of CO2 was about 34 Tg C in the Bering Sea.

文摘The third Chinese National Arctic Research Expedition （CHINARE） was conducted in the summer of 2008. During the survey, the surface seawater partial pressure of CO2 （pCO2） was measured, and sea water samples were collected for CO2 measurement in the Canada Basin. The distribution of pCO2 in the Canada Basin was determined, the influencing factors were addressed, and the air-sea CO2 flux in the Canada Basin was evaluated. The Canada Basin was divided into three regions： the ice-free zone （south of 77°N）, the partially ice-covered zone （77°-80°N）, and the heavily ice-covered zone （north of 80°N）. In the ice-free zone, pCO2 was high （320 to 368 patm, 1 patm=0.101 325 Pa）, primarily due to rapid equilibration with atmospheric CO2 over a short time. In the partially ice-covered zone, the surface pCOs was relatively low （250 to 270 patm） due to ice-edge blooms and icemelt water dilution. In the heavily ice-covered zone, the seawater pCO2 varied between 270 and 300 laatm due to biological COs removal, the transportation of low pCOs water northward, and heavy ice cover. The surface seawater pCO2 during the survey was undersaturated with respect to the atmosphere in the Canada Basin, and it was a net sink for atmospheric CO2. The summertime net CO2 uptake of the ice-free zone, the partially ice-covered zone and the heavily ice-covered zone was （4.14±1.08）, （1.79±0.19）, and （0.57±0.03） Tg/a （calculated by carbon, 1 Tg=10^12 g）, respectively. Overall, the net COs sink of the Canada Basin in the summer of 2008 was （6.5＋1.3） Tg/a, which accounted for 4%-10% of the Arctic Ocean COs sink.

文摘In the northwestern North Pacific,annual net air-sea CO_(2) flux is greatest in the Kuroshio Extension(KE)zone,owing to its low annual mean partial pressure of CO_(2)(pCO_(2)),and it decreases southward across the basin.To quantify the influences of factors controlling the latitudinal gradient in CO_(2) uptake,sea surface pCO_(2) and related parameters were investigated in late spring of 2018 in a study spanning the KE,Kuroshio Recirculation(KR),and subtropical zones.We found that the sea-to-air pCO_(2) difference(ΔpCO_(2))was negative and at its lowest in the KE zone.ΔpCO_(2) gradually increased southward across the KR zone,and the sea surface was nearly in air-equilibrium with atmospheric CO_(2) in the subtropical zone.We found that northward cooling and vertical mixing were the two major processes governing the latitudinal gradient in surface pCO_(2) and ΔpCO_(2),while biological influences were relatively minor.In the KE zone affected by upwelling,the vertical-mixing-induced increase in surface pCO_(2) likely canceled out approximately 61%of the decrease in surface pCO_(2) caused by cooling and biological activities.Moreover,the prolonged air-sea equilibration for CO_(2) and relatively short hydraulic retention time jointly led to the low surface pCO_(2) in the KE zone in spring.Ultimately,the cooling KE current flows out of the region before it can be re-equilibrated with atmospheric CO_(2).

文摘In the east of China＇s seas, there is a wide range of the continental shelf. The nutrient cycle and the carbon cycle in the east of China＇s seas exhibit a strong variability on seasonal to decadal time scales. On the basis of a regional ocean modeling system（ROMS）, a three dimensional physical-biogeochemical model including the carbon cycle with the resolution（1/12）°×（1/12）° is established to investigate the physical variations, ecosystem responses and carbon cycle consequences in the east of China＇s seas. The ROMS-Nutrient Phytoplankton Zooplankton Detritus（NPZD） model is driven by daily air-sea fluxes（wind stress, long wave radiation, short wave radiation, sensible heat and latent heat, freshwater fluxes） that derived from the National Centers for Environmental Prediction（NCEP） reanalysis2 from 1982 to 2005. The coupled model is capable of reproducing the observed seasonal variation characteristics over the same period in the East China Sea. The integrated air-sea CO_2 flux over the entire east of China＇s seas reveals a strong seasonal cycle, functioning as a source of CO_2 to the atmosphere from June to October, while serving as a sink of CO_2 to the atmosphere in the other months. The 24 a mean value of airsea CO_2 flux over the entire east of China＇s seas is about 1.06 mol/（m^2·a）, which is equivalent to a regional total of3.22 Mt/a, indicating that in the east of China＇s seas there is a sink of CO_2 to the atmosphere. The partial pressure of carbon dioxide in sea water in the east of China＇s seas has an increasing rate of 1.15 μatm/a（1μtm/a=0.101 325Pa）, but p H in sea water has an opposite tendency, which decreases with a rate of 0.001 3 a^（–1） from 1982 to 2005.Biological activity is a dominant factor that controls the pCO_2 air in the east of China＇s seas, and followed by a temperature. The inverse relationship between the interannual variability of air-sea CO_2 flux averaged from the domain area and Ni？o3 SST Index indicates that the carbon cycle in the east of China＇s seas has a high correlation with El Ni？o-Southern Oscillation（ENSO）.

文摘The distributions and relationships of O_2, CO_2, and dimethylsulfide (DMS) in the Changjiang (Yangtze) Estuary and its adjacent waters were investigated in June 2014. In surface water, mean O_2 saturation level, partial pressure of CO_2 (pCO_2), and DMS concentrations (and ranges) were 110% (89%–167%), 374μatm (91–640 μatm), and 8.53 nmol L^(-1) (1.10–27.50 nmol L^(-1)), respectively. The sea-to-air fluxes (and ranges) of DMS and CO_2 were 8.24 μmol m^(-2)d^(-1) (0.26–62.77 μmol m^(-2)d^(-1)), and -4.7 mmol m^(-2)d^(-1) (-110.8-31.7 mmol m^(-2)d^(-1)), respectively. Dissolved O_2 was oversaturated, DMS concentrations were relatively high, and this region served as a sink of atmospheric CO_2. The pCO_2 was significantly and negatively correlated with the O_2 saturation level, while the DMS concentration showed different positive relationships with the O_2 saturation level in different water masses. In vertical profiles, a hypoxic zone existed below 20 m at a longitude of 123?E. The stratification of temperature and salinity caused by the Taiwan Warm Current suppressed seawater exchange between upper and lower layers, resulting in the formation of a hypoxic zone. Oxidative de-composition of organic detritus carried by the Changjiang River Diluted Water (CRDW) consumed abundant O_2 and produced additional CO_2. The DMS concentrations decreased because of low phytoplankton biomass in the hypoxic zone. Strong correlations ap-peared between the O_2 saturation level, pCO_2 and DMS concentrations in vertical profiles. Our results strongly suggested that CRDW played an important role in the distributions and relationships of O_2, CO_2, and DMS.

文摘The barometric process separation(BaPS)technique is a well-established incubation method to simultaneously measure gross nitrification and respiration rates in soil.Its application,however,is still critical in soils with pH above 6.5.Here,a substantial part of microbial CO_2 production is retained in soil solution(CO_2,aq)due to shifts in the carbonate equilibrium.This may lead to substantial errors in gas balance calculation.Yet,utilization of the BaPS technique is only reliable if the critical term is adequately quantified.We present an easy,inexpensive,and direct method,the sterilization-CO_2-injection(SCI)method,to measure CO_2 retention during soil incubation.Sterilized soil was incubated in the BaPS system,and defined volumes of CO_2 were injected to stepwise increase CO_2partial pressure(p CO_2)inside the chamber and to analyse the physicochemical equilibration process.Five exemplary agricultural soils from Northeast China and Southwest Germany were used for method establishment,presenting pH values between 4.4 and 7.6 and carbonate contents between 0% and 3.9%.We observed that in soils with pH>6.5,70%–90% of the injected CO_2 was taken up by the soil until the equilibrium inside the chamber was re-established.As expected,in soils with low pH(<6.5),measured CO_2 retention was low.CO_2 retention patterns were sensitive to incubation temperature with tri-fold dissolution capacity at 5~?C compared to 25?C,but insensitive to variations in soil water content.The resulting soil-specific relationship between p CO_2 and CO_2,aq concentration allowed the quantification of CO_2,aq concentration as a function of headspace p CO_2.

In the system of ZrO2-CeO2-Ce2O3, the complex relation between the nonstoichiometry （y） in CeO2-x, the composition of the ZrO2 -CeO2 solid solution and the oxygen partial pressure （Po2 ） for different ZrO2 containing solid solutions CexZr1-xO2-x. are evaluated from 1 473 to 1 773 K. The relation between the degree of Ce^＋4 reduction to Ce.3 under different Po2 in the fluorite CeO2-xy and CexZr1-xOz-x solid solutions at different temperatures can be used as a guide in the development of functional ceramics.
