Ultrasonic Dispersion of Ceramic Powders

Ultrasonication is very effective in dispersing alumina and barium titanate slurries. When optimum conditions are used, very short durations (2 to 3 min) are enough to achieve well-dispersed, stable suspensions.

Flow Characterization of a Three‐Phase Circulating Fluidized Bed Using an Ultrasonic Technique

The axial and radial distributions of solid and gas holdups were investigated in an air‐water‐glass bead circulating fluidized bed (GLSCFB) using a new ultrasonic technique, with a new method based on signal fluctuations. The cross‐sectional averaged gas and solid holdups measured at two axial positions appear to be similar at all studied operating conditions. The radial non‐uniformity decreases with increasing liquid velocity but does not change with an increasing solid circulating rate. The radial distribution of gas holdup was more uniform for 1.3 mm beads than for 433 µm glass beads.     

超声波协同铁粉降解水中2,4-二氯酚的研究

采用超声波/铁粉协同降解水中2,4-二氯酚。考察了初始浓度、超声功率、铁粉投加量以及pH对降解效率的影响,并初步探讨了超声波/铁粉协同降解2,4-二氯酚的动力学规律。结果表明,超声波与铁粉对2,4-二氯酚的降解具有明显的协同效应。降解效率随超声功率和铁粉投加量的增大而增大,随初始浓度的增大而减小。pH对2,4-二氯酚的降解有显著影响,在pH为4时,降解效率最高。超声波/铁对2,4-二氯酚的协同降解符合一级反应动力学规律,降解速率常数为1.52×10-2min-1,与铁粉单独作用和超声单独作用相比,分别提高了约5倍和13倍。     

Measurement of longitudinal distribution of solids holdup in a three-phase fluidized bed by ultrasonic technique

A method of measurement of solids holdup in a three-phase reactor by analyzing the shape and the phase lag or lead of an ultrasonic wave has been proposed. The solids holdup in a solids-dilute three-phase fluidized bed could be measured without being affected by the presence of gas bubbles. The experimental values of solids axial dispersivity measured by the ultrasonic technique are in reasonable agreement with an empirical correlation of previous data obtained by other methods. The possibility of the application of the ultrasonic technique to the measurement of solids holdup in a three-phase fluidized bed has been suggested.     

Intercalated PS/Na+‐MMT Nanocomposites Prepared by Ultrasonically Initiated In Situ Emulsion Polymerization

Summary: A new technique, ultrasonically initiated in situ emulsion polymerization, was employed to prepare intercalated polystyrene/Na⁺‐MMT nanocomposites. FTIR, XRD, and TEM results confirm that the hydrophobic PS can easily intercalate into the galleries of hydrophilic montmorillonite via ultrasonically initiated in situ emulsion polymerization, taking advantages of the multi‐effects of ultrasonic irradiation, such as dispersion, pulverization, activation, and initiation. Properly reducing SDS concentration is beneficial to widen the d‐spacing between clay layers. However, the Na⁺‐MMT amount has little effect on the d‐spacing of nanocomposites. The glass transition temperature of nanocomposites increased as the percentage of clay increased, although the average molecular weight of PS decreased, and the decomposition temperature of the 1obtained nanocomposites moves to higher temperature.

Molar volume and ultrasonic studies of europium soaps in mixed organic solvents

The ultrasonic velocity and density measurements of europium soaps in a mixture of benzene and methanol (3:2, vol/vol) were used to evaluate various acoustic parameters and molar volume and to determine the critical micelle concentration. The results showed that the ultrasonic velocity, specific acoustic impedance, molar sound velocity, and molar compressibility increase, and intermolecular free length, adiabatic Compressibility, and relative association decrease with increasing concentration and chainlength of the soap. The results were interpreted in terms of soap-solvent interaction.     

Ultrasound as a Tool to Synthesize Nano-Sized Silica–Alumina Catalysts with Controlled Mesoporous Distribution by a Novel Sol–Gel Process

A novel sol–gel process is used to synthesize mesoporous silica–alumina catalysts with controlled pore size distribution without using templates or pore-regulating agents. The nitrogen sorption analysis shows that the synthesized materials have high specific surface area in the range 587–692 m²/g and similar mesoporous distribution within 2–11 nm. Ultrasound is applied to prepare precursor silica–alumina sol with narrow particle diameter distribution. By calculation, it is found that ultrasonic treatment is able to provide 22.94 kJ/mol energy, which is just in accordance with the weak bond's bonding energy. Based on the calculation result, it is proposed that the role of ultrasonic treatment followed by acid peptization is to provide energy to break down the weak bonds. After gelation, the regular and close packing of similar-sized sol particles is capable of formation of controlled-sized interstices which are the precursors of mesopores. Solid-state ²⁷Al MAS NMR and TEM are used to characterize the samples' structure and particle morphology. They show that most of the aluminum is located in the tetrahedral position in the present materials. According to TEM results, it is shown that the synthesized materials have spherical particles with size of about 15 nm.
