Results show that the half peak width of (()^(17)O-NMR) for tap water activated by the antibacterial ceramic drops from 115.36 to 99.15 Hz, and oxygen concentrations of activated water increase by 20%, germinate rate of horsebean and earthnut seeds increases by 12.5% and 7.5%, respectively. Therefore antibacterial ceramic doped enamel slurry with inorganic antibacterial additives containing rare earth can reduce the volume of clusters of water molecules, improve activation of tap water, and promote plant seeds germinate.展开更多

Combinatorial ...Conventionally, an experimentally determined phase diagram requires studies of phase formation at a range of temperatures for each composition, which takes years of effort from multiple research groups. Combinatorial materials chip technology, featuring high-throughput synthesis and characterization, is able to determine the phase diagram of an entire composition spread of a binary or ternary system at a single temperature on one materials library, which, though significantly increasing efficiency, still requires many libraries processed at a series of temperatures in order to complete a phase diagram. In this paper, we propose a "one-chip method" to construct a complete phase diagram by individually synthesizing each pixel step by step with a progressive pulse of energy to heat at different temperatures while monitoring the phase evolution on the pixel in situ in real time. Repeating this process pixel by pixel throughout the whole chip allows the entire binary or ternary phase diagram to be mapped on one chip in a single experiment. The feasibility of this methodology is demonstrated in a study of a Ge-Sb-Te ternary alloy system, on which the amorphouscrystalline phase boundary is determined.展开更多

Rare earth materials including minim thorium oxide powders which had radioactivity were mainly composed of rare earth waste-residue powders. Under the radiation catalysis of rare earth materials, molecules of diesel oil can be transformed into activated molecules, the collision frequency increases among molecules, and temperature raises a little higher than usual. When temperature is higher, the interaction force between molecules is lessened, distance between molecules is shortened. The volume is increased and the density is decreased. A large amounts electrons and negative ions are produced by rare earth materials, which leads to the signals of hydroxylic radical stronger that means rare earth materials can activate diesel oil and can improve the activity of diesel oil.展开更多

文摘Niobates are promising all-climate Li^(+)-storage anode material due to their fast charge transport,large specific capacities,and resistance to electrolyte reaction.However,their moderate unit-cellvolume expansion(generally 5%–10%)during Li^(+)storage causes unsatisfactory long-term cyclability.Here,“zero-strain”NiNb_(2)O_(6) fibers are explored as a new anode material with comprehensively good electrochemical properties.During Li^(+)storage,the expansion of electrochemical inactive NiO_(6) octahedra almost fully offsets the shrinkage of active NbO_(6) octahedra through reversible O movement.Such superior volume-accommodation capability of the NiO_(6) layers guarantees the“zero-strain”behavior of NiNb_(2)O_(6) in a broad temperature range(0.53%//0.51%//0.74%at 25//−10//60℃),leading to the excellent cyclability of the NiNb_(2)O_(6) fibers(92.8%//99.2%//91.1%capacity retention after 1000//2000//1000 cycles at 10C and 25//−10//60℃).This NiNb_(2)O_(6) material further exhibits a large reversible capacity(300//184//318 mAh g−1 at 0.1C and 25//−10//60℃)and outstanding rate performance(10 to 0.5C capacity percentage of 64.3%//50.0%//65.4%at 25//−10//60℃).Therefore,the NiNb_(2)O_(6) fibers are especially suitable for large-capacity,fast-charging,long-life,and all-climate lithium-ion batteries.

文摘Purpose–This paper aims to analyze the transverse vibration characteristics of the high speed train window glass when passing through tunnel.Design/methodology/approach–The lateral vibration acceleration response of glass chamber of high-speed train CR400BF-A on Beijing-Chengdu high-speed railway was tested at different speeds through the tunnel entrance,exit,tunnel interior,Tunnel Group and rendezvous time in the tunnel,the lateral distribution characteristics of vibration frequency and vibration power amplification coefficient of glass of high-speed train were analyzed.Findings–The results show that:The vibration of the high-speed train glass increases significantly during the tunnel,and the amplitude of vibration acceleration in the tunnel is significantly higher than outside the tunnel as the travel speed increases;the amplitude of lateral vibration acceleration of the glass of a high-speed train does not vary with changes in tunnel length and is not affected by the aerodynamic effects of the tunnel when traveling inside the tunnel,but its vibrations create noticeable fluctuations during variations when encountering oncoming traffic;The vibration characteristics of the high-speed train glass are forced harmonic vibrations,the excitation frequency does not vary with travel speed and travel position changes inside and outside the tunnel.The lateral vibration acceleration of the glass of a high-speed train is applied vertically and uniformly to the glass surface as an“inertial force”and creates a cyclic bending vibration stress that can easily lead to fatigue damage.Originality/value–The research results provide guidance for the prevention of glass failure in high-speed trains.

文摘Atomic-scale doping strategies and structure design play pivotal roles in tailoring the electronic structure and physicochemical property of electromagnetic wave absorption(EMWA)materials.However,the relationship between configuration and electromagnetic(EM)loss mechanism has remained elusive.Herein,drawing inspiration from the DNA transcription process,we report the successful synthesis of novel in situ Mn/N co-doped helical carbon nanotubes with ultrabroad EMWA capability.Theoretical calculation and EM simulation confirm that the orbital coupling and spin polarization of the Mn–N4–C configuration,along with cross polarization generated by the helical structure,endow the helical converters with enhanced EM loss.As a result,HMC-8 demonstrates outstanding EMWA performance,achieving a minimum reflection loss of−63.13 dB at an ultralow thickness of 1.29 mm.Through precise tuning of the graphite domain size,HMC-7 achieves an effective absorption bandwidth(EAB)of 6.08 GHz at 2.02 mm thickness.Furthermore,constructing macroscale gradient metamaterials enables an ultrabroadband EAB of 12.16 GHz at a thickness of only 5.00 mm,with the maximum radar cross section reduction value reaching 36.4 dB m2.This innovative approach not only advances the understanding of metal–nonmetal co-doping but also realizes broadband EMWA,thus contributing to the development of EMWA mechanisms and applications.

文摘The fracture behaviours and notch effects of single-edge-notched(SEN)and double-edge-notched(DEN)2D carbon fibre reinforced carbon matrix composites(C/Cs)were discussed and compared.The fracture behaviours of DEN and SEN were performed by tensile and bending load-displacement relationships,and the effects of notch depth on notch sensitivity were determined by DEN specimens.The results from mechanical tests indicated that the SEN exhibited a brittle behaviour with linear elasticity,while the DEN exhibited a ductile behaviour with nonlinearity.It was also found that increasing notch depth and decreasing ligament width can lead to a higher ultimate tensile strength of DEN.On the other hand,the digital image correlation(DIC)method and acoustic emission(AE)system were also applied during the mechanical tests to study the local mechanical characteristics of shear damage,strain concentration and fracture behaviour of 2D C/Cs.The results revealed the mechanisms of notch insensitivity and explained the differences in fracture behaviours between SEN and DEN.

文摘We employed Monte Carlo simulations via Geant4 to model the interactions of^(60)Co gamma rays(1.25 MeV),electrons(0.1-10 MeV),and protons(0.5-10 MeV)with Ta_(2)O_(5)optical coatings.By analyzing secondary electron generation and energy deposition,we found that 1.0 MeV electrons and protons produce 67.5 and 67 secondary electrons per particle,respectively,compared to 116 from 1.25 MeV gamma rays in thick targets.Boltzmann-function fitting revealed depth-dependent ionization equivalence:0.582 gamma photons match the secondary electron yield of a 1.0 MeV electron,and 0.577 gamma photons match a 1.0 MeV proton.These results establish a framework to convert ground-based gamma-ray test data to space environment scenarios,accounting for critical differences in penetration depth-protons deposit energy within 10μm(coating layers),while gamma rays penetrate>100 mm into substrates.This provides a theoretical basis for evaluating radiation effects using existing^(60)Co facilities,enabling reliable predictions of optical component durability in complex space environments.

文摘We synthesized tungsten-doped vanadium dioxide(W-VO_(2))particles via a one-step hydrothermal method,followed by their integration with antimony-doped tin oxide(ATO)nanoparticles to formulate a composite coating.Subsequently,the VO_(2)/ATO composite coating was fabricated through a spin-coating process.The impact of varying W-VO_(2) content and coating thickness on the performance of the composite coatings was systematically investigated by employing X-ray diffraction,particle size distribution analysis,spectrometry,and other pertinent test methodologies.Our findings revealed that an escalation in both W-VO_(2) content and coating thickness retained high transmittance in the near-infrared band at lower temperatures.However,as the temperature increased,a notable reduction in transmittance in the near-infrared band was observed,alongside a slight decrease in transmittance within the visible band.Remarkably,when the W-VO_(2) content reached 5%and the coating thickness was 1253 nm,the transmittance of the composite coating surpassed 80%.Furthermore,the heat insulation effect achieved a remarkable 10.0℃increase.Consequently,the synthesized composite coating demonstrates significant potential for smart glass applications,particularly in the realm of heat-insulating glass.

文摘The viscosity of anti-irradiated glass was quantitatively characterized using beam bending viscometry(BBV),parallel plate viscometry(PPV),and rotational viscometry(RV).The Vogel-Fulcher-Tammann(VFT)equation was determined to be the most suitable for representing the viscosity-temperature characteristics of anti-irradiation glass by comparing the fitting effects and accuracy of different equations within different test ranges.The fragility index m of anti-irradiation glass was 47.5,as calculated using an Angell plot,and the cause of the appropriate fit of the VFT equation was analyzed.The effects of different heating temperatures and loading rates on the tensile properties of glass were studied using a universal testing machine.The results indicated that,at a tensile rate of 10 mm/s,the heating temperature increased from 903 to 1023 K,and the deformation process of anti-irradiation glass transitioned from unstable to stable.When the tensile rate increased from 10 to 30 mm/s at 1023 K,the deformation process of the glass was extremely unstable.This work provides theoretical guidance for the large-size preparation of flexible anti-irradiation glass.

文摘In this study,we developed an in-situ hot-pressing sintering(HPS)device that can be coupled to a lab-oratory X-ray microscope,offering laboratory-available observation of the morphology evolution.With the help of this device,in-situ three-dimensional(3D)visualizations of the microstructural evolution of 7055 aluminum alloys during the HPS process were conducted.The 3D results revealed that the twodimensional(2D)methods usually underestimated sintering neck width and exhibited significant standard deviation in statistical analysis.Benefiting from the precise microstructure characterization of the insitu 3D methods,the diffusion activation energy for the sintering of 7055 alloys was calculated,and the quantitative relationship between the sintering temperature and the sintering process was constructed.Moreover,it was experimentally found an accelerative effect of satellite particles on the sintering process,and its mechanisms were discussed.The satellite particles enhanced the curvature near the sintering neck and thus increased the sintering driving stress,promoting the densification process.These findings provide new insights for optimizing sintering processes.
