In this article, we investigate the effect of modified carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites when galvanically coupled with AISI 1018 carbon steel. Two different resins were used to manufacture the CFRPs: neat epoxy resin, and epoxy resin modified with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). The specimens of composite (the cathode of the galvanic cell) and metal (the anode of the galvanic cell) were paired and immersed in electrolyte (NaCl solution, 2 % by weight) at 40 °C, to simulate a corrosive environment and accelerate the electrochemical reaction. Results of corrosion rate (CR) and mass loss rate (MR) were obtained, and the electrical resistances of the CFRPs were also measured. This new study shows that the MWCNTs do not have a statistically significant impact on the corrosion and mass loss rate results, and that both types of CFRP composites have statistically the same electrical resistance. Therefore, common methods used in the engineering practice in conventional hybrid CFRP/steel joints and repairs may be sufficient to delay galvanic corrosion, as there is no increased liability. 相似文献
In this study we propose a method for phase stability analysis at pressure and temperature specifications, in the frame of a “volume-based” thermodynamics. The formulation of the tangent plane distance (TPD) criterion in terms of the Helmholtz free energy is used in this work for testing phase thermodynamic stability at p-T conditions, using component molar densities as primary variables. The phase stability problem is non-convex; the TPD function may exhibit multiple local minima and saddle points, the use of global optimization methods for its minimization being appropriate. For the unconstrained minimization of the TPD function we use the tunneling global optimization method, which has shown its ability in efficiently solving difficult non-convex, highly nonlinear problems. The method is tested for a variety of mixtures ranging from binaries to mixtures with many components, with emphasis on difficult conditions. The proposed method proved to be an efficient and reliable tool for phase stability analysis. 相似文献
Triacylglycerols (TAG) from milk‐fat from different sources (cow, goat and human milks) were characterised using non‐aqueous reversed phase high‐performance liquid chromatography–atmospheric‐pressure chemical ionisation, coupled to MS/MS (RP HPLC‐APCI MS/MS). The fatty‐acid content of all samples was also established by methyl transesterification and GC‐MS analysis. Optimisation of the HPLC gradient, combined with APCI tandem MS, enables TAGs complex mixtures to be analysed without prior separation. More than 160 different glycerides were identified; between 50 and 70 compounds were identified in the chromatograms of each sample. This method also enabled the principal TAG regioisomers to be recognized. The study focused on the investigation of the structure of TAGs containing very‐long‐chain PUFA, namely all cis‐ 4,7,10,13,16,19‐ DHA (DHA, C22:6, n‐3) and all cis‐5,8,11,14,17‐eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, C20:5, n‐3), both in human and in n‐3‐enriched cow's milks. Ten TAGs containing DHA were identified in human milk and only one in milk from cows fed an n‐3 enriched diet. 相似文献
The hitherto unreported ability of the methylsulfinyl carbanion (dimsyl anion) to generate acyl anion equivalents is described. The dimsyl anion, in fact, efficiently catalyzes chemoselective intermolecular cross‐benzoin condensations of diaryl α‐diketones (benzils) with various aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes to give the corresponding aryl‐aryl and aryl‐alkyl benzoin benzoates in an atom‐economic fashion. The dimsyl anion acts as an environmentally friendly alternative to the toxic cyanide anion and it is obtained by in situ deprotonation of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) solvent with a catalytic amount of a strong base, potassium tert‐butoxide (t‐BuOK) the optimal promoter. The assumption that the methylsulfinyl carbanion is the active catalyst in the title transformation is supported by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI‐MS) experiments.
The efficient, high-yield approaches to two novel regioisomeric salicyl aldehyde analogs, 4-formyl-13-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-[2.2]paracyclophane and 4-formyl-12-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-[2.2]paracyclophane ( iso -FHPhPC and pseudo -FHPhPC , respectively), constructed on the basis of an aryl[2.2]paracyclophane backbone are described. The key stage of the backbone formation is the Suzuki cross-coupling of paracyclophanyl halides with arylboronic acids. Efficient procedures for the resolution of the racemic hydroxy aldehydes into enantiomers via Schiff bases with enantiomers of α-phenylethyl amine were elaborated, and the absolute configurations of enantiomers were established on the basis of X-ray analysis of diastereomeric imines. Starting from these chiral hydroxy aldehydes the first representatives of bi-, tri-, and tetradentate phenoxy-imine ligands belonging to an aryl[2.2]paracyclophane family were obtained. The induction power of the ligands was tested in the Et2Zn asymmetric addition to aldehydes. 相似文献
