Chemical durability and surface alteration of lanthanide zirconates (A2Zr2O7: A = La-Yb)

Chemical durability of lanthanide zirconates (A₂Zr₂O₇) (A = La-Yb) under near-field environments is important for evaluating their application as potential nuclear waste forms. In this work, A₂Zr₂O₇ (A = La-Yb) are synthesized by spark plasma sintering with controlled microstructure and their chemical durability are evaluated in a nitric acid solution (pH = 1). Scanning transmission electron microscopy analysis reveals an amorphous passivation film either enriched with Zr or lanthanide. The complex chemistry of the passivation films can be correlated with a transition in corrosion mechanisms from a preferential release of lanthanide in La₂Zr₂O₇ to a preferential release of Zr in Er₂Zr₂O₇ and Yb₂Zr₂O₇. These results suggest a dominant mechanism of incongruent dissolution and surface reorganization for the formation of passivation films. Strong correlations are identified between the leaching rates and cation ionic size, ionic potential, electronegativity differences between A-site cation and Zr, and bonding valence sum of oxygen, suggesting important impacts of structural and bonding characteristics in controlling chemical durability of lanthanide zirconates.     

猪胴体冷却降温特性及耗能分析

猪肉是我国消耗量最大的肉类品，尤其是冷鲜猪肉更受人们青睐。猪胴体冷却保鲜加工工艺既要满足优质猪肉的成熟条件，又要保证猪肉的安全卫生。猪胴体冷却温度和降温速度对保证加工工艺合理性和降低耗能都至关重要。在实测数据基础上经过判断、分析提出，在常规0～4 ℃冷却前先在-10～-5 ℃低温快速冷却猪胴体1 h从而更好地保证猪胴体的冷却效果。实验发现：猪胴体开始冷却时，内部温度先有2～4 ℃的升温，然后才会降温，因此需对热负荷计算进行修正；根据两段冷却过程中猪胴体的冷却降温特点，提出了对应的冷量要求，为配备冷却装置提供了依据。     

Influence of Sr ions on the structure and dielectric properties of Cu/Nb Co-doped BaTiO3 ceramics

Sr-modified Cu/Nb co-doped BaTiO₃ ceramics were prepared using solid-state reactions and the structures and dielectric properties were studied. All the samples had single-phase perovskite structures with no detectable secondary phases. In the low-temperature range, the dielectric constant decreased as the Sr content increased in the high- and low-frequency ranges. Two dielectric constant plateaus accompanied by dielectric relaxation peaks were present in the loss curves, and the relaxation process deviated from the Arrhenius law at low temperatures. The dielectric constants of different plateaus were related to inhomogeneous structures such as grain interiors and grain boundaries. The polarization strength of the grain boundaries in the low-frequency range increased with the temperature and that of the grain interiors demonstrated paraelectric behaviour in high-temperature ranges. An analysis of the electric modulus spectra indicated a close relationship between the relaxation process and resistivity of the grains for high-frequency relaxation. The impedance spectra at high temperatures consist of three electrical responses, corresponding to the effects of grains, grain boundaries, and electrodes. The dielectric relaxation appeared in high temperature range was related to the electrical properties of the grain boundaries.

芜菁子挥发油、多糖的组成及挥发油抗菌活性的研究

目的用3种方法提取芜菁子挥发油,对挥发油的抗菌作用进行定性和定量分析,并对芜菁子挥发油及多糖的组成进行分析。方法采用水蒸气蒸馏法、溶剂萃取法和同时蒸馏萃取法提取芜菁子挥发油,气相色谱-质谱联用法分析挥发油的组成。运用滤纸片扩散法和二倍稀释法检验芜菁子挥发油对大肠杆菌、金黄色葡萄球菌和绿脓杆菌的抑菌作用。利用水提醇沉法提取残渣中的多糖,酸水解后进行薄层分析。结果 3种方法提取的挥发油分别鉴别出21、7、14种成分。水蒸气蒸馏法提取挥发油中异硫氰酸酯类化合物占45.95%,同时蒸馏萃取法的为31.35%,溶剂萃取法提取挥发油无异硫氰酸酯类化合物。定性定量的抑菌实验结果显示,3种方法所得的挥发油对大肠杆菌、金黄色葡萄球菌和绿脓杆菌均有良好的抑制作用,水蒸气蒸馏法提取的挥发油的抑菌效果最好。在高效G板上,以乙酸乙酯:异丙醇:水=26:14:7(V:V:V)为展开剂,芜菁子多糖的分离效果较好,可鉴别出芜菁子多糖中的果糖和半乳糖。结论芜菁子挥发油对大肠杆菌、金黄色葡萄球菌、绿脓杆菌均有一定的抑制作用,可能与其中含有异硫氰酸酯类和腈类化合物有关。     

Local body cooling to improve sleep quality and thermal comfort in a hot environment

The effects of local body cooling on thermal comfort and sleep quality in a hot environment were investigated in an experiment with 16 male subjects. Sleep quality was evaluated subjectively, using questionnaires completed in the morning, and objectively, by analysis of electroencephalogram (EEG) signals that were continuously monitored during the sleeping period. Compared with no cooling, the largest improvement in thermal comfort and sleep quality was observed when the back and head (neck) were both cooled at a room temperature of 32°C. Back cooling alone also improved thermal comfort and sleep quality, although the effects were less than when cooling both back and head (neck). Mean sleep efficiency was improved from 84.6% in the no cooling condition to 95.3% and 92.8%, respectively, in these conditions, indicating good sleep quality. Head (neck) cooling alone slightly improved thermal comfort and subjective sleep quality and increased Stage N3 sleep, but did not otherwise improve sleep quality. The results show that local cooling applied to large body sections (back and head) could effectively maintain good sleep and improve thermal comfort in a hot environment.
