退火温度对HA/Ti-24Nb-4Zr复合材料组织与性能的影响

利用放电等离子烧结(SPS)技术制备了HA/Ti-24Nb-4Zr生物复合材料,研究了不同退火温度对复合材料显微组织和力学性能(抗压强度、屈服强度、屈强比、压缩弹性模量)的影响。结果表明,烧结态复合材料主要由β-Ti相、少量初生α-Ti相及HA相组成;随着退火温度的升高,复合材料基体中β-Ti相含量增多且晶粒逐渐长大,针状次生α-Ti相在晶界处和晶内不断析出,HA相结构和含量变化不大;与烧结态相比,不同退火温度处理后的复合材料强度和弹性模量先略微上升后下降,而塑韧性呈不断提高趋势;复合材料在850 ℃退火处理后,抗压强度、屈服强度、屈强比和压缩弹性模量值分别为1507 MPa、1270 MPa、0.84和42 GPa,塑韧性得到明显改善,作为生物医用植入材料具有潜在的应用前景。

The effect of the exposed crystal plane on the antioxidant activity of nanoceria

Previous reports have noted that exposed crystal planes could affect the antioxidant activity of nanocerias, although the synthesized nanocerias used in those studies had different exposed crystal planes, as well as different sizes and morphologies. In order to better understand the effect of the crystal planes on the antioxidant activity of the materials, two types of nanocerias with similar morphology and size distribution but different crystal planes were synthesized using the hydrothermal method (CeO₂–H) and the ultrasonic template method (CeO₂–U). The antioxidant activities of the nanocerias were further explored within different ·OH concentrations in the reaction system. The experimental results showed that there is an obvious difference in the antioxidant activity of the two types of nanocerias in the lower free radical concentration system due to the effects of exposed crystal planes. CeO₂–U, with more active crystal planes (100), had stronger antioxidant activity. However, with the increase in the ·OH concentration in the reaction system, the difference in the antioxidant activity of the two nanocerias decreased. This research will increase our understanding of the antioxidant activity of the exposed crystal planes on nanocerias.     

Relationship between the oil price volatility and sectoral stock markets in oil-exporting economies: Evidence from wavelet nonlinear denoised based quantile and Granger-causality analysis

This paper examines the extent of volatility between oil price and sectoral indices in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries by using quantile regression analysis (QRA) for the return's series and denoised series over the period 2006–2017. Four sectors are found to offer diversification opportunities during a high market (i.e., 90th quantile). All the sectors are found interdependent of oil price volatility; however, the bank and insurance sectors are insusceptible to oil price volatility during the 10th, 25th and 75th quantiles. In addition, QRA results for wavelet nonlinear denoising with a soft-thresholding series indicate that all the sectors are interdependent of oil price volatility but that the aggregate market index, transport and telecommunication sectors are insensitive to oil price volatility during the 75th and 90th quantiles. This highlights the usefulness of denoising the financial returns series when applying regression tools. Moreover, the contagion and interdependence between the oil price and stock returns sectors are estimated by frequency domain causality.

Synthesis and characterization of porous platelet-shaped α-Bi<Subscript>2</Subscript>O<Subscript>3</Subscript> with enhanced photocatalytic activity for 17α-ethynylestradiol

The porous platelet-shaped α-Bi₂O₃ photocatalyst was successfully synthesized by a novel hydrothermal–calcination method assisted with ethylenediamine and polyvinylpyrrolidone. The physical and chemical properties of α-Bi₂O₃ photocatalyst were characterized based on XRD, XPS, SEM, TEM, EDS, UV–Vis DRS, and PL techniques. The influence of preparation conditions on the formation of α-Bi₂O₃ photocatalyst was investigated, and the effect of catalyst dosage and pH value on the EE2 removal rate was also investigated. The synthesized porous platelet-shaped α-Bi₂O₃ photocatalyst exhibited excellent photocatalytic activity for 17α-ethynylestradiol (EE2), and 97.8% of EE2 was removed after 75 min of visible light irradiation using α-Bi₂O₃ as photocatalyst. The reaction rate constant over the porous platelet-shaped α-Bi₂O₃ photocatalyst was 11.6 and 11.4 times of that of traditional α-Bi₂O₃ and N-TiO₂, respectively. The possible photocatalytic mechanism has been discussed on the basis of the theoretical calculation and the experimental results. The porous platelet-shaped α-Bi₂O₃ was a stable and efficient photocatalyst, proving that it is a promising photocatalyst.     

Kinetics of light-induced degradation in compensated boron-doped silicon investigated using photoluminescence and numerical simulation

We use photoluminescence to observe light-induced degradation in silicon in real time. Numerical simulations are used to match our results and lifetime decay data from the literature with theoretical models for the generation of the light-induced boron–oxygen defects. It is found that the existing model of the slowly generated defect SRC, where its saturated concentration is a function of the majority carrier concentration, does not explain certain results in both p- and n-type samples. A new model is proposed in which the saturated SRC concentration is controlled by the total hole concentration under illumination.     

微波干燥软锰矿机理研究

采用微波加热法对软锰矿进行了深度干燥,考察了微波功率、物料质量、物料原始含水率、物料粒径等对其干燥效果的影响。结果表明物料在微波干燥180 s时达到最大脱水速率,且采用微波干燥在800 s时间内可将物料脱水至3.83%;原料质量一定时,随着微波功率的增大,有利于提高物料的脱水速率;微波功率一定时,在一定范围内增大物料质量和含水率,脱水速率就越快,干燥效果越好;物料粒径并非越小越好,反而大一些粒径的物料有助于物料加速脱水过程。
