The surface properties of RDX play an important role in enhancing mechanics performances of the propellants and explosives. In this work, thereby, inverse gas chromatography (IGC) using various probe liquids as the medium was used to determine the surface energy components of RDX containing both dispersive and polar components, which were acquired respectively from neutral probe liquids (such as n‐hexane, n‐heptane, n‐octane) and polar probe liquids (such as chloroform, benzene, methanol). The results show that RDX located in different column temperatures has difference in the surface energy and possesses more surface energy when there is high temperature. The calculated formula of the total surface energy with temperature is: , and it is also found that dispersive, polar, electron acceptor, and electron donor components of RDX are , , , and , respectively. These results demonstrate that the dispersive component is the primary part of the total surface energy, and RDX has an acid performance. 相似文献
Summary: It is well known that the weight‐average molecular weight ( ) is strictly dependent on conversion in step‐growth polymerizations performed in batch and that the is very sensitive to impurities and molar imbalance. This makes the work of controlling a non trivial job. In this paper a new methodology is introduced for in‐line monitoring and control of conversion and of polyurethanes produced in solution step‐growth polymerizations, based on near‐infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and torquemetry. A calibration model based on the PLS method is obtained and validated for monomer conversion, while the weight‐average molecular weight is monitored indirectly with the relative shear signal provided by the agitator. Control procedures are then proposed and implemented experimentally to avoid gelation and allow for maximization of . The proposed monitoring and control procedures can also be applied to other step growth polymerizations.
The kinetics of the reaction have been studied at 25°C. in strong acid solution; the effects of acidity, chloride, chlorate and chlorine are reported. A mechanism is postulated to interpret the peculiar features of this reaction as well as the stoichiometry and some of the kinetics of the parallel reaction The mechanism involves HClO2 and HOCl as intermediates General rate expressions are derived for the formation of chlorine dioxide and chlorine, and the individual rate constants are calculated. An expression is obtained for the relationship between the ratio of chlorine dioxide to chlorine produced and the ratio of chlorate to chloride. 相似文献
Using a new set of energy (kT) and length (σ) parameters, a corresponding states treatment is applied to the calculation of some thermophysical properties in a generalised non-dimensional form. The saturated density is well represented by the following equation: for all the liquids studied here. The surface tension correlations are $ \gamma _r^* = 2.055\left({1.219 - T_r^*} \right)^{1.240} $ for cryogenic fluids and hydrocarbons and $ \gamma _r^* = 2.322\left({1.228 - T_r^* } \right)^{1.244}$ for refrigerants. An interpretation of the index in the density equation and the constants in the surface tension equations is given. Using these correlations, an equation is also proposed for the capillary constant. 相似文献
For film blowing of polyethylene it has been shown previously that melt elongation is very powerful for polymer characterization. With two types of rheometers, simple (also called “uniaxial”) elongational tests as well as creep tests can be performed homogeneously. In simple elongation, the melts of branched polyethylene show a remarkable strain hardening. With respect to their advantages and disadvantages, these rheometers complement each other. For multiaxial elongations the various modes of deformation can be performed by means of the rotary clamp technique. With the strain rate components ordered such that \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ \dot \varepsilon $\end{document}11 ? \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ \dot \varepsilon $\end{document}22 ≥ \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ \dot \varepsilon $\end{document}33, the ratio m = \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ \dot \varepsilon $\end{document}22/\documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ \dot \varepsilon $\end{document}11 characterizes the test mode. The Stephenson definition of the elongational viscosities makes use of the linear viscoelastic material equation and proves to be very efficient because the linear shear viscosity (t) (“stressing” viscosity) can act as the reference for the nonlinear behavior in elongation. Results are given for polyisobutylene measured not only in simple, equibiaxial, and planar elongations, but also in new test modes with a change of m during the deformation. This allows one to investigate the consequences of a deformation-induced anisotropy of the rheological behavior. 相似文献
A detailed rheological study of cellulose nitrate in ethylacetate had been carried out in the dilute concentration (c) regime, covering a degree of polymerization (DP) range between 300 < DPη < 7000 and shear rates ($ \dot \gamma $) between 100 s?1 < $ \dot \gamma $ < 2000 s?1. The results show a strong dependence of the transition Newtonian to non-Newtonian behavior on the three variables $ \dot \gamma $, DP, and c, similar to that found recently on solutions of synthetic polymers. Emphasis has been put on the critical concentrations corresponding to the standard shear rate 1000 s?1 to correspond to the standard conditions ($ \dot \gamma $ ? 1000 s?1; 0.3 < [η] · c < 0.6; DS = 2.90 ± 0.02) proposed for the determination of the intrinsic viscosity [η] of cellulose nitrates. It is shown that solutions with concentrations adjusted according to the above given conditions still exhibit Newtonian behavior, up to the highest range of DP. It follows, therefore, that applying the standard conditions, an extrapolation to $ \dot \gamma $ = 0 as has been proposed often for the intrinsic viscosity determination of cellulose nitrate is not advisable and results in considerable error. Considering the relationship between [η] and DP, the present results indicate that the decrease of the exponent ( a ) from a = 1.0 to a = 0.76, taking place above a DP ? 1000, is not a consequence of the applied shear rate but rather of the molecular properties of the solutes themselves. 相似文献
The zero‐length column (ZLC) technique has been developed to measure the intracrystalline diffusivity of strongly adsorbed species in large zeolite crystals above 50 μm in the Henry's law range of sorption equilibrium. The ZLC is a macroscopic technique, and there is a need of large crystallites or pellets to measure the intracrystalline diffusivity Dc of fast diffusion species or the macropore diffusivity DP of weakly adsorbed species, respectively. Another limitation is that ZLC desorption curves produce similar concentration profiles (linear isotherms) in bidisperse adsorbents (pellets) under macropore or micropore diffusion control. Moreover, the forms of the response curves are very similar in both diffusion‐ and nonlinear equilibrium‐controlled processes, leading to some misinterpretations of ZLC experiments. In this work, two criteria are developed showing that, in order to macroscopically measure the micropore diffusion time constant or the macropore diffusion time constant , the time of the ZLC experiments t should be higher than 7.0 × 10?2 or 7.0 × 10?2 , respectively. The interpretation of the ZLC response curve data is also checked in two completely different regimes, showing that a single ZLC response curve is not enough to conclude if a system is under a kinetic or an equilibrium regime. 相似文献
The enthalpies of solution of 2,4,6‐trinitro‐1,3,5‐trihydroxybenzene (trinitrophloroglucinol, TNPG) in N, N‐dimethylformamide (DMF) and EtOH are determined. The thermodynamics of these processes are also studied. The experiments are carried out by a SETARAM C80 calorimeter at 298.15 K. The empirical formulas for enthalpies of solution of TNPG in both DMF and EtOH are calculated by polynomial expressions. The resulting formulas are: (in DMF), and (in EtOH). 相似文献

Viscosity measurements made by a cone-plate viscometer on polyisobutylene in decalin solutions at different concentrations and their corresponding glass bead suspensions with filler loadings up to 40% by volume are reported. The range of shear rate $ \dot \gamma $ investigated is between 0.1 and 1000 sec?1. The solutions show shear-thinning behavior, and the relative viscosity ηr of the slurries generally decreases with increasing shear rate. The results indicate two different types of mechanism, respectively at high and low shear rates. At low $ \dot \gamma $, the relative viscosity can be correlated extending relations already well known for suspensions in Newtonian liquids which are based on the mechanism of aggregate disruption. The behavior at high $ \dot \gamma $ values is believed to be due to the influence of the filler on the flow properties of macromolecules, in particular on relaxation time. Through a shifting procedure, an increase in relaxation time which depends on filler content and not on polymer concentration is shown. 相似文献

Au nanoparticles supported on Vulcan XC‐72R carbon were prepared by a modified NaBH4 method in aqueous solution and employed as electrocatalyst of oxidation for the direct borohydride fuel cell (DBFC). The morphology and structure of as‐prepared particles were examined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X‐ray diffraction (XRD). It was found that Au nanoparticles were mainly about 3.0 ± 0.5 nm in size and uniformly distributed on the surface of Vulcan XC‐72R carbon. The electrooxidation behaviors of and fuel cell performances using carbon‐supported Au nanoparticles as catalysts were investigated. Compared with Au/C prepared by conventional reduction method, the kinetics of oxidation on as‐prepared carbon supported 3.0 ± 0.5 nm Au nanoparticles were significantly improved. The DBFC employing carbon supported 3.0 ± 0.5 nm Au nanoparticles showed a maximum power density of 85.3 mW cm–2 at 60 °C. 相似文献
