Direct transformation of calcium sulfite to α-calcium sulfate hemihydrate in a concentrated Ca-Mg-Mn chloride solution under atmospheric pressure

Massive quantities of sulfite-rich flue gas desulfurization (FGD) scrubber sludge have been generated by coal burning power plants. Utilization of the sulfite-rich sludge for preparing α-calcium sulfate hemihydrate (α-HH), an important kind of cementitious material, is of particular interest to electric utilities and environmental preservation. In the experiment, calcium sulfite hemihydrate was directly transformed to α-HH without the occurrence of calcium sulfate dihydrate (DH). The transformation was performed in a concentrated CaCl2 solution containing Mg2+ and Mn²⁺ at 95 °C, atmospheric pressure and low pH. The oxidation of calcium sulfite and the subsequent crystallization of α-HH constitute the whole conversion, during which the oxidation turns out to be the rate controlling step. Solid solution comprised of calcium sulfite hemihydrate and calcium sulfate was found to coexist with α-HH in the suspension. Calcium sulfate increases and calcium sulfite decreases spontaneously until the solid solution disappears. Thus, it is a potential alternative to utilize sulfite-rich FGD scrubber sludge for the direct preparation of α-HH.     

Hydrophilic modification of P(VDF-co-CTFE) porous membranes

This paper describes fabrication of a poly(vinylidene difluoride-co-chlorotrifluoroethylene) (P(VDF-co-CTFE)) porous membrane via non-solvent induced phase inversion and subsequent hydrophilic modification using high efficient surface initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP). The effect of viscosities of casting solutions on microstructures of the P(VDF-co-CTFE) membrane was investigated. The surface chemistry, thermal stability, morphological structure, and hydrophilicity of the modified membranes were evaluated by Fourier Transform Infrared Attenuated Total Reflection (FTIR-ATR), Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), and contact angle measurements, respectively. The degree of grafting and the degree of swelling were measured to analyze the effect of polymerization time on the wettability. The mechanical strength of the membranes after modification was also investigated. The permeability and fouling resistance were evaluated according to pure water flux and protein solution filtration measurements. The results demonstrate that the hydrophobic P(VDF-co-CTFE) membrane can be feasibly modified by immobilization of hydrophilic poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate (PEGMA) brushes via surface initiated ATRP.     

Reaction Engineering Approach (REA) to model the drying kinetics of droplets with different initial sizes—experiments and analyses

Droplets with different initial sizes, which are typical in conventional liquid atomization for spray drying applications, will result in varying drying and crust formation histories. It is essential for any droplet drying model to accurately capture such fundamental phenomena. This study used a newly constructed glass-filament single droplet rig to evaluate the applicability of the Reaction Engineering Approach (REA) in describing such effect. For the three initial sizes (1, 2 and 3 μL) tested, the glass filament gravimetric method clearly distinguished the different drying kinetics and the crust formation phenomenon, delineated by the drying behavior. Analysis from the drying kinetics revealed that the main premise of the REA, which utilizes a material-specific master activation energy curve, is applicable to droplets of different initial sizes at all the three air temperatures tested. This allowed the REA to accurately predict the different temperature and moisture histories given by droplets with different initial sizes. The result supports the REA as a good modeling approach for a wide range of initial droplet conditions. A new master curve approach was proposed to predict the diameter change of droplets with different initial concentrations. Validation with the current and past experimental data revealed that this approach has strong potential to account for the different feed concentrations typically found in spray drying applications.     

Unique hue data for colour appearance models. Part I: Loci of unique hues and hue uniformity

Psychophysical experiments were conducted to assess unique hues on a CRT display for a large sample of colour‐normal observers (n = 185). These data were then used to evaluate the most commonly used colour appearance model, CIECAM02, by transforming the CIEXYZ tristimulus values of the unique hues to the CIECAM02 colour appearance attributes, lightness, chroma and hue angle. We report two findings: (1) the hue angles derived from our unique hue data are inconsistent with the commonly used Natural Color System hues that are incorporated in the CIECAM02 model. We argue that our predicted unique hue angles (derived from our large dataset) provide a more reliable standard for colour management applications when the precise specification of these salient colours is important. (2) We test hue uniformity for CIECAM02 in all four unique hues and show significant disagreements for all hues, except for unique red which seems to be invariant under lightness changes. Our dataset is useful to improve the CIECAM02 model as it provides reliable data for benchmarking. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Col Res Appl, 2011     

Mechanism of degradation of poly(p‐phenylene benzobisoxazole) under hydrolytic conditions

Poly(p‐phenylene benzobisoxazole) (PBO) fiber has received great interest because of its excellent mechanical properties and good thermal stability. The objective of this study was to expose degradation mechanism of PBO under neutral and acidic conditions by molecular mass and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Results were not consistent with the classic degradation mechanism, which indicates that degradation should occur through the ring opening and chain scission of the benzoxazole ring. The FTIR absorption spectra of PBO suggested that the o‐hydroxy amide linkage (the open ring structure) was present in the PBO molecule chain to some extent because of the incomplete polymerization. Further investigation showed that hydrolysis might occur in the open ring section during hydrolytic degradation. Based on the experimental data, a new degradation mechanism was proposed. It suggests that, in the early and middle stages, hydrolysis occurred primarily in the o‐hydroxy amide linkage of the open ring. The concentration of the o‐hydroxy amide structure determined the speed of degradation of PBO. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2011     

Fracture toughness of polyamide 6/maleated ethylene–propylene–diene terpolymer rubber/nano calcium carbonate ternary composites according to essential work of fracture analysis

Polyamide 6 (PA6)/maleated ethylene–propylene–diene terpolymer rubber/nano calcium carbonate ternary composites were prepared. The effect of the compounding route on the morphology, toughness, and fracture behavior of the ternary composites were investigated by scanning electron microscopy, Charpy impact testing, and essential work of fracture (EWF) testing. The construction of sandbag microstructure particles in PA6 matrix was crucial to the toughness of the ternary composites. The Charpy impact strength and the specific essential work of fracture (w_e) of the ternary composites with a sandbag microstructure were 137.9 and 71.4% higher, respectively, than those of the ordinary ternary composites with a separated dispersion microstructure. The observation of the fracture surface after EWF testing indicated that the improvement of w_e was attributed to the sandbag microstructure particles; this structure was more effective for resisting the growth of cracks; meanwhile, the influence of the amount of fibrillation on the nonspecific essential work of fracture, including the nonspecific essential work of fracture before yielding and that in the necking–tearing stage, was insignificant. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Encapsulation of disperse dye by phase separation technique using poly(styrene‐maleic acid)

C.I. disperse dye blue 60 was encapsulated by poly(styrene‐maleic acid) using phase separation technique, followed by the preparation of the encapsulated disperse dye dispersion. The effects of process conditions on particle size of the dispersion were investigated. The results showed that the particle size of the encapsulated disperse dye dispersion was small, and the stability was excellent when mass ratio of poly(styrene‐maleic acid) to disperse dye (R_p/d), dropping speed of phase separation agent (D_s), disperse dye content in dispersion (C_d), and dispersing time (D_t) were about 20%, 7 mL/min, 5–7.5%, and 1.5 h, respectively. Transmission electron microscope (TEM), zeta potentials, and contact angle indicated that C.I. disperse dye blue 60 was successfully encapsulated by poly(styrene‐maleic acid). © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
