Negative effect of [bmim][PF6] on the catalytic activity of alcohol dehydrogenase: mechanism and prevention

BACKGROUND: [bmim][PF₆] is a hydrophobic ionic liquid which could be considered as an environmentally friendly solvent for biocatalysis. In pure [bmim][PF₆], however, alcohol dehydrogenase from yeast (YADH) has no catalytic activity. The aim of the present work was (1) to quantitatively study the negative effect of [bmim][PF₆] on the catalytic activity of YADH and the related mechanism and (2) to made an attempt to lessen the negative effect of [bmim][PF₆] on YADH by microemulsifying [bmim][PF₆]. RESULTS: The activity of YADH in the homogeneous solution formed by H₂O, CH₃CH₂OH and [bmim][PF₆] decreased rapidly with the increase of the molar fraction of [bmim][PF₆]. The inhibitory effect of [bmim][PF₆] on YADH was probably caused by the competition of the imidazole group of [bmim][PF₆] with the coenzyme NAD⁺ for the binding sites on YADH. In a water‐in‐[bmim][PF₆] microemulsion, YADH was catalytically active due to the formation of the interfacial membrane of the nonionic surfactant TritonX‐100, which separated YADH from [bmim][PF₆] and avoided the direct inactivation of [bmim][PF₆] on YADH. Under optimal conditions, the activity of YADH was as high as 51 µmol L^?1 min^?1. CONCLUSION: [bmim][PF₆] was an inhibitor of YADH and its negative effect on YADH could be lessened by its microemulsification. Copyright © 2008 Society of Chemical Industry     

Effect of Li+ ions on structure,properties, and actuation of cellulose electro‐active paper actuator

We have reported an electro‐active paper actuator from regenerated cellulose. After dissolving cellulose fibers with a solution of lithium chloride in N,N‐dimethylacetamide, cellulose was regenerated by combining distillation of cellulose solution along with washing with the mixture of deionized water, isopropyl alcohol, and running water. However, the effect of Li⁺ ions on structure, properties, and the actuation behavior of the actuator was not studied. This article describes the changes in these parameters when the Li⁺ ions are removed by subjecting it to different running water exposure time. The structure and properties of cellulose electro‐active paper and its actuation behavior were studied. As Li⁺ ions content reduced from 4354.17 to 10.26 ppm by increasing the exposure time of running water, crystallinity, Young's modulus, and bending displacement decreased. Details about the investigation have been explained. This elimination of ions is important to increase the piezoelectric effect in EAPap by decreasing the ion migration effect. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 2008

反应温度对聚苯胺薄膜生长的影响

在不同反应温度条件下采用原位聚合法在石英基片上制备了聚苯胺薄膜．对薄膜样品进行了紫外光谱、SEM、电性能表征。实验结果表明，过高的合成温度会加速聚合反应过程，抑制膜厚的增长，引起薄膜的热降解，进而对样品的导电性产生不良影响。根据生长速率与合成温度的依赖关系，估算了聚合反应的活化能Ea=34.4kJ/mol。

Porosity distribution in highly compressible cake: Experimental and theoretical verification of the dense skin

The rate of filtration and the water content of cake are influenced by the existence of a dense skin in a highly compressible cake. The phenomenon of the dense skin has been rarely studied, and its existence has not been verified experimentally. In this study, the porosity variation in a very compressible cake is measured by using a new experimental apparatus, and with this the existence of dense skin has been established experimentally. ‘Unified theory on solid-liquid separation’, a recently developed theory, is utilized for calculating the porosity variation in a very compressible cake.     

空泡溃灭水锤的VOF计算方法

空泡溃灭水锤是核电厂冷却循环系统中较常出现的一种严重的水锤事故。空泡的形成和溃灭是复杂的两相、瞬态过程，对于这一现象的分析是相当困难的。作者尝试着把蒸汽泡的边界看成是冷水流动的自由面，在自由面上考虑蒸汽的凝结。对于自由面的ＶＯＦ算法用了ＶＯＦ算法，取得了令人满意的结果，不仅形象地描绘了空泡的形成和溃灭的过程，而且得到了与实验相符的空泡溃灭高压和弥合速度，因此可为管道设计提供理论基础。
