On the inhibiting effect of phenolic compounds in the photopolymerization of acrylates under high‐intensity and polychromatic UV/visible lights

The photopolymerization of wood coatings under UV and visible light in industrial type conditions has been investigated. The inhibiting effect of the phenolic compounds found in wood extractives, especially quercetin, on the final properties of the coating (hardness, gel content) as well as the polymerization kinetics (rates, final conversion) has been discussed. Model clear‐coating formulations — based on an acrylate oligomer, a reactive diluent and a bis‐acylphosphine oxide as photo‐initiator — have been used. This article focuses on the influence of the nature of the acrylate oligomer (polyester, epoxy, polyurethane), the type of phenolic derivative (POHs) and the irradiation conditions (UV conveyor, Xe lamp). It appears that lead to through the strong inner‐filter effect in the presence of quercetin is responsible for the loss of all the observed properties. In order to mimic what happens at the wood–coating interface, the role of the diffusion of the phenolic derivatives have been also investigated and discussed. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Zinc-rich powder coatings characterisation in artificial sea water: EIS analysis of the galvanic action

Two zinc-rich powder coatings are applied onto phosphatised steel substrate and are studied using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Measurements are performed before (dry experiment) and during immersion in artificial sea water. Before immersion, EIS spectra show that percolation threshold is not attained for coating A, while coating B presents an effective percolation. In this latter case, and in order to account for the distribution of the zinc particles within the coating described as isolated, semi-isolated and percolant grains, a distributed transmission line model is proposed. When panels are immersed, the model is modified due to the electrolyte penetration through the coating, in particular with the introduction of an ionic resistance. However, it is shown that EIS spectra are not significantly modified when this ionic resistance is changed.     

Al2TiO5-ZrTiO4-ZrO2 Composites: A New Family of Low-Thermal-Expansion Ceramics

The characterization and properties of ceramic composites containing the phases Al₂TiO₅, ZrTiO₄, and ZrO₂ are described. The range of compositions investigated gives very low average thermal expansions (α_24–1000°C as low as −2.0 × 10⁻⁶°C⁻¹) and excellent high-temperature stability. The low thermal expansions are apparently due to a combination of microcracking by the titanate phases and a contractive phase transformation by the ZrO₂. The crystal chemistry and microstructure of the product are processing dependent. Although the composites represent a complex microcracking system, the low thermal expansions and high-temperature stability make them potential candidates for commercial applications requiring thermal shock resistance.

升温速率对油页岩热解特性的影响

采用热分析方法,在非等温条件下对茂名和桦甸的油页岩进行了热解试验研究。研究了从常温到900℃之间不同升温速率(10,20,40,50,100℃/m in)对油页岩热分解反应的影响以及油页岩的H/C,O/C,Cdaf,Vdaf等因素与(dw/dt)m ax之间的关系。根据试验数据建立了热解动力学模型,利用积分法求得表观活化能和频率因子等动力学参数。试验结果表明,油页岩热解可分为3个阶段,其中第2阶段(200—600℃)是热解反应最激烈的区域,挥发份几乎全部析出。而第3阶段是碳酸盐热解阶段,茂名油页岩由于碳酸盐含量低,此阶段变化甚微。

Silica Nanoboxes as New Nano-structured Materials: Their Secondary Synthesis from Alumina-Rich Zeolites

Novel silica nanoboxes were prepared by controlled dealumination of Na-X and Ca-A type zeolites using ammonium hexafluorosilicate (AHFS). The silica-richer the parent zeolite, the smaller the average pore size produced and the narrower the pore size distribution obtained. This was due to the specific reactivity of the extracting agent with the zeolite framework aluminum atoms. High temperature calcination of the dealuminated X-zeolite (ammonium form) resulted in mesoporous materials exhibiting an ink-bottle shape, a quite high surface area (330 m²/g, no micropores), an average pore diameter of 4.5 nm with a quite narrow pore size distribution (± 1.0 nm) and finally, a pore opening diameter of 3.9 nm. The latter was determined by using the nitrogen sorption isotherms (BET technique) and related pore volume data. The sorption behavior also suggested the interconnecting character of the newly created nanoboxes. The periodicity of these nanoboxes throughout the mesoporous material was clearly shown by X-ray powder diffraction at very small angles. These materials, herein called monomodal nanoboxes because of the absence of micropores in the structure, were also thermally stable. Incorporation of orthosilicate into the obtained silica nanoboxes, in accordance with the recently developed technique for pore size engineering in zeolites, led to materials with smaller pore openings but having almost the same textural properties. Solid superacidic materials were prepared by incorporating a liquid superacid (triflic acid or trifluoromethanesulfonic acid) into the silica nanoboxes using the wet impregnation technique. The maximum triflic acid loading which did not significantly affect the mesoporous framework of the materials was 24 wt%. As a reference, the maximum loading of less acidic sulfuric acid was slightly lower. All this showed the high chemical stability of the silica nanoboxes for supporting very acidic species. Temperature-programmed desorption using a combined DTA/TGA system allowed the identification of the bound phases and some liquid phase of the loaded triflic acid.
