Standard reference materials for cements

The eight portland cements and two calcium aluminate cements in the Standard Reference Material (SRM) 1880 series are among the most popular SRMs in the catalog of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Standard Reference Materials Program. Numerous laboratories rely on them for elemental analysis and qualification for ASTM C 114-00 Standard Test Methods for Chemical Analysis of Hydraulic Cement. NIST has collected new candidate materials from around the world and partnered with Construction Technology Laboratories (CTL) in their preparation and certification. This paper describes the procedures taken at NIST and CTL to prepare and test materials for certification including the homogeneity testing, the X-ray fluorescence methods and the statistical data analysis performed for value assignment.

黄河下游平滩流量对来水来沙变化的响应

本文探讨了平滩流量对来水来沙的滞后响应规律，发现平滩流量不仅与当年的水沙条件有关，而且与前期水沙条件有关，是一定时期内的水沙条件累积作用的结果。当采用滑动平均值来反应前期水沙条件的累积影响时，得出平滩流量与滑动平均汛期流量和滑动平均来沙系数的相关程度分别在4年和5年时达到最大值。据此建立了能够反映来水流量和来沙系数前期综合影响的平滩流量计算方法，可以用来估算黄河下游主要测站平滩流量随水沙条件的变化。     

New method for measuring an optical property of a sample treated by FWA

In this article, a new method for measuring a total spectral radiance factor of a FWA‐treated sample illuminated by a specific standard illuminant is introduced. The method replaces an unstable real fluorescent standard by a bi‐spectral luminescent radiance factor data, which works as a virtual fluorescent standard (VFS) by knowing spectral intensity distributions of illuminations applied to the sample. The method utilizes two illuminations I₁ and I₂ whose relative spectral intensity distributions are different from each other and synthesizes a virtual illumination presenting the identical fluorescent spectral radiance factor to that presented by the standard illuminant with the VFS of the specific bi‐spectral luminescent radiance factor by linearly combining I₁ and I₂ with the suitable weighting factors. The applicability of the method is examined in principle by comparing ISO brightness and CIE whiteness index of fluorescent standard paper as a test sample obtained by this new method to the assigned values. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Vinyl acetate monomer—a pilot plant study

The kinetics of the reaction of acetic acid and acetylene over zinc acetate-activated carbon catalyst was investigated over a wide range of process variables in a pilot reactor. Although various catalytic reaction mechanisms were postulated, the rate of reaction was most satisfactorily correlated by a mechanism of surface reaction between charged adsorbed acetic acid and acetylene, which assumes that the rate controlling step was the irreversible charged adsorption of acetylene and acetic acid.     

氟化活性炭纤维对极性分子的吸附

将活性炭纤维（ACF）与氟气反应制备出氟化活性炭纤维（FACF），根据将FACF与参照试样XPS的对比，碳原子是以sp^3杂化轨道同氟原子形成共健键。αs图分析氮吸附等温线的线果表明，ACF氟化后其比表面积和微孔容积都显著降低，微孔宽度基本不变，ACF的水吸附等温线呈V型，而FACF对水的吸附量极小；FACF的微孔表面具有完美的憎水性和高稳定性，乙醇和甲醇在ACF上的吸附等温线是Ⅰ型，在FACF上接近于Ⅰ型，但吸附量显著降低。

New HPLC Method to Determine Ethyl Carbamate in Alcoholic Beverages Using Fluorescence Detection

ABSTRACT: A new methodology to the quantification of ethyl carbamate (EC) has been developed. This method allows the analysis by HPLC of ethyl carbamate in samples of wine, fortified wine, and wine brandy, by a pre-column derivatization with 9-xanthydrol, and fluorescence detection. This does not require previous sample extraction or concentration. The method presents an average recovery of 96% among samples studied, a detection limit of 4.2μg/L, and an average intermediate precision of 6.3%. The comparison of the results obtained for EC analysis on the same wine brandy samples by GC/MS and HPLC are statistically indistinguishable with 97.5% probability. The results of the analysis of 42 samples are presented.     

Measurements of turbulent mass transport of a circular wall jet

The results of a laboratory investigation on the turbulence characteristics of a circular three-dimensional turbulent wall jet are presented. Measurements were taken up to 50 nozzle diameters using combined particle image velocimetry and planar laser induced fluorescence. The results showed that the induced turbulence was still evolving in the present range and had not achieved similarity. While the turbulent intensity for both velocity and concentration increased downstream, the turbulent mass transport showed a decline over distance for both the streamwise and spanwise directions, implying weakening dispersion from the jet core.     

Synthesis and spectral investigation of alkyl methacrylates with halogenated carbazolyl pendant groups for photonics applications

The alkyl methacrylates with halogenated carbazolyl pendant groups were prepared, and the analysis of their absorption and emission spectra showed that the polymers containing monohalogenatged carbazole rings were capable of exhibiting a high singlet‐triplet (S‐T) conversion. The reasons that mainly triplet excitons could be observed in such polymers and additional bands appearance in the spectra of the polymers with dihalogenated carbazole rings are discussed. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
