Deposition of nanostructured LSM perovskite thin film on dense YSZ substrate by airbrushed solution combustion (ASC) for application in SOFC cathodes

To make SOFC high efficiency energy generation devices, thin ceramic films are proposed as their main components. The rate of the oxygen reduction reaction is relevant for the overall performance of the SOFC, hence a lot of attention is given to the cathodes and their interfaces. The airbrushed solution combustion (ASC) method was used to fabricate an LSM thin film on a dense YSZ substrate. A single phase LSM perovskite was obtained with very thin and interconnected porosity, and a small average grain size (55 nm). The nanostructured LSM thin film electrode showed a low total activation energy (1.27 eV) at high temperatures, but a high area specific resistance at 850°C (55 Ω.cm²). The activation energy for the dissociative adsorption and diffusion of oxygen was significantly low (1.27 eV), while the charge transfer and oxygen ion migration activation energy at the LSM/YSZ interface (1.28 eV) was closer to those usually reported.     

Hydrogen-rich syngas production and carbon dioxide formation using aqueous urea solution in biogas steam reforming by thermodynamic analysis

Biogas is a renewable biofuel that contains a lot of CH₄ and CO₂. Biogas can be used to produce heat and electric power while reducing CH₄, one of greenhouse gas emissions. As a result, it has been getting increasing academic attention. There are some application ways of biogas; biogas can produce hydrogen to feed a fuel cell by reforming process. Urea is also a hydrogen carrier and could produce hydrogen by steam reforming. This study then employes steam reforming of biogas and compares hydrogen-rich syngas production and carbon dioxide with various methane concentrations using steam and aqueous urea solution (AUS) by Thermodynamic analysis. The results show that the utilization of AUS as a replacement for steam enriches the production of H₂ and CO and has a slight CO₂ rise compared with pure biogas steam reforming at a temperature higher than 800 °C. However, CO₂ formation is less than the initial CO₂ in biogas. At the reaction temperature of 700 °C, carbon formation does not occur in the reforming process for steam/biogas ratios higher than 2. These conditions led to the highest H₂, CO production, and reforming efficiency (about 125%). The results can be used as operation data for systems that combine biogas reforming and applied to solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC), which usually operates between 700 °C to 900 °C to generate electric power in the future.

Analysis of P. aeruginosa disinfectant sensitivity and microbial adhesions to worn cosmetic contact lenses

PurposeTo compare the sensitivity of two genotypes of P. aeruginosa to various disinfectant solutions and analyze the attached bacteria on worn cosmetic contact lenses (cosCLs).MethodsIn this prospective study, healthy volunteers wore etafilcon (brown), nelfilcon (gray), or hilafilcon (black) cosCLs and microbial adhesion analysis was performed. A rub-off test determined pigment dislodgement. Disinfectant sensitivity to Optifree Replenish (Alcon), Optifree Pure Moist (Alcon), Renu Fresh (Bausch & Lomb), and AoSept Plus (Ciba Vision) was tested at various disinfection times and compared between various genotypes and Type III secretion (T3S) system mutants.ResultsOf the 1152 cosCLs collected, 364 were culture positive (32%). The highest rate of culture-positive lens was hilafilcon (chi square, P = 0.0001). Hilafilcon also had a significantly greater number of isolates than etafilcon (P < 0.0001). Hilafilcon was the only lens to fail the rub-off test. Cytotoxic strains were significant more resistant to Renu Fresh than were invasive strains, even at 100% of recommended disinfection time (P = 0.0005). Of the tested disinfectants, Renu Fresh was significantly less effective in killing both genotypes of P. aeruginosa compared to AoSept Plus at all time points (25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% recommended disinfection time, P = 0.0001, 0.0001, 0.0005, and 0.0005, respectively). When the T3S system was dysfunctional, mutant strains were all susceptible to disinfectants (P = 0.0001 for both invasive and cytotoxic strains).ConclusionPseudomonas species is commonly found on cosCLs of asymptomatic individuals. Wearers of cosCLs that dislodge pigments may be predisposed to microbial contamination. Cytotoxic strains are more resistant to disinfectant solutions, especially to Renu Fresh. P. aeruginosa disinfectant resistance requires a functional T3S system.

Critical state model for structured soil

Structure is an evident determinant for macroscopic behaviors of soils. However, this is not taken into account in most constitutive models, as structure is a rather complex issue in models. For this, it is important to develop and implement simple models that can reflect this important aspect of soil behavior. This paper tried to model structured soils based on well-established concepts, such as critical state and sub-loading. Critical state is the core of the classic Cam Clay model. The sub-loading concept implies adoption of an inner (sub-loading) yield surface, according to specific hardening rules for some internal strain-like state variables. Nakai and co-workers proposed such internal variables for controlling density (ρ) and structure (ω), using a modified stress space, called t_ij. Herein, similar variables are used in the context of the better-known invariants (p and q) of the Cam Clay model. This change requires explicit adoption of a non-associated flow rule for the sub-loading surface. This is accomplished by modifying the dilatancy ratio of the Cam Clay model, as a function of the new internal variables. These modifications are described and implemented under three-dimensional (3D) conditions. The model is then applied to simulating laboratory tests under different stress paths and the results are compared to experiments reported for different types of structured soils. The good agreements show the capacity and potential of the proposed model.     

Robust,low haze and graded porous anti-reflective glass by Tailoring the Nanostructures

Low haze and anti-reflective glass has high potential applications in automobile and optoelectronic fields. Etching is a novel and effective method to fabricate gradient refractive index anti-reflective layer on glass surface. However, the gradient layer on glass surface prepared by the etching method usually characterizes rough porous structure, and the structural defect results in high haze and low abrasion resistance to restrict its applications. In this paper, a hydrothermal etching method has been explored to prepare anti-reflective glass. It has demonstrated to be a new and facile method successfully to tailor the porous nanostructure of gradient refractive index layer and largely decrease the haze of the glass, by adding complex compound in the etching solution. Compared with the etching solution containing NaOH, adding the complex compound of C₆H₅Na₃O₇ in the etching solution has the advantage to overcome the defects. The grain diameter of the graded porous anti-reflective film decreases from ~63 nm to ~18 nm, the etched film thickness increases from 0.44 μm to 1.55 μm, the haze decreases drastically from 23.76% to 1.00%, the reflectivity decreases from 5.88% to 1.08% and the abrasion resistance greatly increases. However, when changing the complex compound from C₆H₅Na₃O₇ to Na₂HPO₄, the haze is 23.44% and has no effect on decreasing haze. Structural characterizations show that the grain size in the porous gradient layer can be easily tailored by changing the ion radius of complex anion in the etching solution, and the optical properties can be controlled. The paper provides new insights into the nanostructures and the preparation approach of anti-reflective glass.     

P2O5对炼钢炉渣中石灰溶解过程的影响

在1400℃下，将平均尺寸φ15 mm?10 mm的石灰块投入CaO?SiO2?FeO及CaO?SiO2?FeO?P2O5两组渣系中，研究了静态条件下石灰在两组渣系中的溶解行为。结果表明，两组渣系在反应界面周围形成四个区域，即基体渣层、C2S渗透层、铁酸钙渗透层和石灰层。渗透层为石灰中的Ca2+与液渣中的Fe2+相互渗透所形成的一个多相共存区域，存在致密固相层影响石灰的溶解。渗透层中的铁酸钙层逐渐被C2S层取代，C2S层厚度不断增加最终溶解于液相渣中。5~60 s两组渣系石灰溶解速度相近，60~80 s含磷渣系石灰溶解速度显著加快。当渣中加入P2O5时，磷会固溶于C2S中形成C2S?C3P固溶体层，该层的形成会排挤FeO进入渣中，提高渣的渗透能力，加速石灰溶解。
