In order to evaluate the crude and processed Paeoniae Radix-Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma herbal pairs, a simple, easy, and sensitive high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with diode array detectors was developed for simultaneous determination of nine bioactive components in the herbal pairs. The calibration curve exhibited good linearity（r2≥0.9992）. The LODs and LOQs were ≤7.30 and 11.53 μg/m L, respectively. The intra-, inter-day and repeatability RSD values of the nine compounds were less than 3.86%, 2.71%, and 4.29%, respectively. The RSD stability values were less than 3.64%. The recovery of the method was in the range of 96.70%–102.10%, with RSD values less than 3.52%. The developed method can be applied to the intrinsic quality control of crude and processed Paeoniae Radix-Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma herbal pairs.展开更多

Meanwhile, the spray doping processing of Mo O2–50 wt% La（NO3）3composite powder was undergone with lanthanum nitrate solution as the dopant,and doped Mo O2powder was analyzed by XRD. The results demonstrate that during the traditional solid–liquid spray doping processing, lanthanum nitrate, in the form of either crystal or aqueous solution, would be converted into La（NO3）3á4H2O by the dehydration reaction, rather than be decomposed to La2O3and NO or NO2. Therefore, it is inferred that the oxynitride gas produced from the process is attributed to the decomposition of residual HNO3in lanthanum nitrate crystal. The source of HNO3is supported by the chemical composition of lanthanum nitrate crystal.展开更多

An Euler–Euler two-fluid model was employed coupled with a species transport equation for alumina content. Three different anode configurations such as anode without a slot, anode with a longitudinal slot and anode with a transversal slot were studied in the simulation. The simulation results clearly show that the slots can reduce the bath velocity and promote the releasing of the anode gas, but can not contribute to the uniformity of the alumina content. Comparisons of the effects between the longitudinal and transversal slots indicate that the longitudinal slot is better in terms of gas–liquid flow but is disadvantageous for alumina mixing and transport process due to a decrease of anode gas under the anode bottom surface. It is demonstrated from the simulations that the mixing and transfer characteristics of alumina are controlled to great extent by the anode gas forces while the electromagnetic forces(EMFs) play the second role.展开更多
