对3 mm厚的AZ31-O镁合金板和6061-T6铝合金板进行异种材料搅拌摩擦焊。实验中搅拌针的旋转速度为600~1400 r/min,前进速度为20~60 mm/min。结果表明,在旋转速度1000 r/min、前进速度40 mm/min的工艺条件下,可以获得无缺陷的焊接接头。组织观察发现搅拌区的晶粒尺寸要比基材区的明显小很多。在搅拌区形成了复杂的金属流动。显微硬度测试表明搅拌区的硬度分别是不均匀的。拉伸实验结果表明,接头的拉伸强度约为基材AZ31镁合金的76%,或6061铝合金的60%。接头拉伸断口SEM形貌观察表明为脆性断裂。     

Production and radiochemical separation of no-carrier-added <Superscript>88</Superscript>Y by liquid-liquid extraction

A method was suggested for the cyclotron production of ⁸⁸Y with liquid-liquid extraction. The sedimented ^natSrCO₃ target was irradiated with 18-MeV protons at current of 20 μA for 10 h. The ⁸⁸Y yields of about 1.326 MBq μA⁻¹ h⁻¹ were experimentally obtained. Solvent extraction of no-carrier-added ⁸⁸Y from irradiated strontium carbonate target in the hydrochloric acid solution was studied using di(2-ethylhexyl) hydrogen phosphate (HDEHP). The optimum separation was achieved in the system n-hexane/10% HDEHP-0.1 M HCl. Yttrium radionuclides were recovered from the HDEHP phase by stripping with 60 ml of 9 M HC1. Also, excitation functions of the proton, deuteron, and α-particle induced reactions of ⁸⁹Y, ⁸⁸Sr, ^natSr, and natRb were determined using computer codes and compared to the existing data.     

Poly(glycerol sebacate) nanoparticles for ocular delivery of sunitinib: physicochemical,cytotoxic and allergic studies

Poly(glycerol sebacate) (PGS) is a new biodegradable polymer with good biocompatibility used in many fields of biomedicine and drug delivery. Sunitinib‐loaded PGS/gelatine nanoparticles were prepared by the de‐solvation method for retinal delivery and treatment of diabetic retinopathy. The nanoparticles were characterised by Fourier‐transform infrared and differential scanning calorimetry. The effects of different formulation variables including drug‐to‐carrier ratio, gelatine‐to‐PGS ratio, and glycerine‐to‐sebacate ratio were assessed on the encapsulation efficiency (EE%), particle size, release efficiency (RE), and zeta potential of the nanoparticles. The in vitro cytotoxicity of PGS/gelatine nanoparticles was studied on L929 cells. Draize test on rabbit eyes was also done to investigate the possible allergic reactions caused by the polymer. Glycerine/sebacic acid was the most effective parameter on the EE and RE. Gelatine‐to‐PGS ratio had the most considerable effect on the particle size while the RE was more affected by the glycerine/sebacic acid ratio. The optimised formulation (S₁ G_0.7 D_21.2) exhibited a particle size of 282 nm, 34.6% EE, zeta potential of −8.9 mV, and RE% of about 27.3% for drug over 228 h. The 3‐(4,5‐dimethylthuazol‐2‐yl)‐2,5‐diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay indicated PGS/gelatine nanoparticles were not cytotoxic and sunitinib‐loaded nanoparticles were not toxic at concentrations <36 nM.Inspec keywords: polymers, differential scanning calorimetry, toxicology, drug delivery systems, solvation, eye, encapsulation, particle size, drugs, biodegradable materials, nanofabrication, nanomedicine, nanoparticles, gelatin, Fourier transform infrared spectraOther keywords: gelatine‐to‐PGS ratio, glycerine‐to‐sebacate ratio, particle size, zeta potential, sunitinib‐loaded nanoparticles, biodegradable polymer, retinal delivery, differential scanning calorimetry, drug‐to‐carrier ratio, allergic reactions, physicochemistry, cytotoxicity, poly(glycerol sebacate) nanoparticles, sunitinib ocular delivery, drug delivery, sunitinib‐loaded PGS‐gelatine nanoparticles, Fourier‐transform, in vitro cytotoxicity, biocompatibility, Draize test, rabbit eyes, 3‐(4,5‐dimethylthuazol‐2‐yl)‐2,5‐diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay     

Asphalt colloidal types differentiated by Korcak distribution

Asphalt in a colloidal context can be considered as a sol, sol-gel or gel type where in all three cases the asphaltene particle plays an important role. Usually the three colloidal types can be differentiated by refinery processes or by rheological properties. The aggregation or clustering of the asphaltene particles (or micelles) from sol to sol-gel and finally to the gel state with a fixed lattice can follow the stochastic process of fractal Brownian motion which can fit a hyperbolic (or Korcak) distribution. A test was carried out using the same mass of various asphalts of different colloidal types for floc formation with a series of n-alkanes (dispersion media) of increasing characteristic lengths. Results from floc formation studies indicate that the value of the size distribution for the gel type is small, is higher for the sol-gel type, and is highest for the sol type. On the other hand, the surface irregularities for all three types of asphalt do not have any correlation. These observed facts are consistent with principles based on the fractal approach.     

Correlation of H2S solubility in aqueous MDEA solutions using electrolyte-modified Peng-Robinson plus association equation of state

In this survey, we use the emPR-CPA equation of state to model a ternary system of H₂S solubility in MDEA aqueous solution at different solution compositions, temperatures, pressures, and acid gas loadings. For electrolyte part of the model, MSA theory and the Born term were used. There were 302 experimental data used in this work. To model a ternary system, at first pure components, then binary subsystems, and finally ternary system were modeled using a reactive bubble point pressure calculation method. An overall absolute average deviation percentage equal to 20.85 was achieved so that show the model efficiency for correlation of such systems.     

Synthesis of aluminium nanoparticles by arc evaporation of an aluminium cathode surface

Aluminium nanoparticles (Al Nps) are synthesized using arc discharge method by applying direct current between aluminium electrodes in liquid environment without any use of vacuum equipment, heat exchangers, high temperatures furnaces and inert gases. After synthesis of Al Nps, in situ coating process on the nanoparticles was performed immediately. The effects of media on the yield and morphology of aluminium nanoparticles were investigated. Analysis result of the samples indicated that particle size was less than 30 nm, when 120 A/cm² arc current was used. In addition, coating agent can affect arc velocity, arc stability, morphology and composition of the nanoparticles. Resultant nanoparticles were identified using X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), also their surface morphology was studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and finally the accuracy of coating was assessed with infrared (IR) spectroscopy.     

Study of Structural and Magnetic Properties of Superparamagnetic Fe3O4–ZnO Core–Shell Nanoparticles

In this work, Fe₃O₄–ZnO core–shell nanoparticles have been successfully synthesized using a simple two-step co-precipitation method. In this regard, Fe₃O₄ (magnetite) and ZnO (zincite) nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized separately. Then, the surface of the Fe₃O₄ NPs was modified with trisodium citrate in order to improve the attachment of ZnO NPs to the surface of Fe₃O₄ NPs. Afterwards, the modified magnetite NPs were coated with ZnO NPs. Moreover, the influence of the core to shell molar ratio on the structural and magnetic properties of the core–shell NPs has been investigated. The prepared nanoparticles have been characterized utilizing transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). The results of XRD indicate that Fe₃O₄ NPs with inverse spinel phase were formed. The results of VSM imply that the Fe₃O₄–ZnO core–shell NPs are superparamagnetic. The saturation magnetization of prepared Fe₃O₄ NPs is 54.24 emu/g and it decreases intensively down to 29.88, 10.51 and 5.75 emu/g, after ZnO coating with various ratios of core to shell as 1:1, 1:10 and 1:20, respectively. This reduction is attributed to core–shell interface effects and shielding. TEM images and XRD results imply that ZnO-coated magnetite NPs are formed. According to the TEM images, the estimated average size for most of core–shell NPs is about 12 nm.     

Dosimetric characteristic of a new 125I brachytherapy source

A new brachytherapy (125)I source has been investigated at Iranian Agricultural, Medical and Industrial Research School. Dosimetric characteristics [dose-rate constant Λ, radial dose function g(l)(r) and anisotropy function F(r,)] of IRA-(125)I were theoretically determined in terms of the updated AAPM task group 43 (TG-43U1) recommendations. Versions 5 and 4C of the Monte Carlo radiation transport code were used to calculate the dosimetry parameters around the source. The Monte Carlo calculated dose-rate constant of the (125)I source in water was found to be 92×10(-4) Gy h(-1) U(-1) with an approximate uncertainty of ±3 %. Brachytherapy seed model, 6711-(125)I, carrying (125)I radionuclides, was modelled and benchmarked against previously published values. Finally, the calculated results were compared with the published results of those of other source manufacturers.
