Fabrication and amplification of Rhodamine B‐doped step‐index polymer optical fiber

A step‐index polymer optical fiber (SI POF) containing Rhodamine B in poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) has been fabricated by a preform technique. Fluorescence of different fiber lengths were observed and discussed. A high gain (23 dB) for a SI POF with 60‐cm length, 400‐μm diameter was obtained. The Rhodamine B content of the doped SI POF is 5 ppm‐wt. The signal wavelength providing the highest gain for a 60 cm SI POF is around 630 nm, and the optimum fiber length is about 60 cm at 10 kW launched pump power. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Hydrothermal products of the C3MS2-C12A7-MgO system

The autoclave products of reduced steel-slag of an electronic furnace mainly containing C₃MS₂ phase were detected. The hydrothermal products of this slag included calcio-chondrodite, brucite, and hydrogarnet phases. When suitable (CaO + MgO)/SiO₂ molar ratios were chosen, C₃MS₂ can react with SiO₂ to produce calcium silicate hydrates tobermorite, xonotlite, gyrolite, and truscottite phases with different saturated water vapor pressures. The phase brucite was present along with tobermorite, whereas phases Mg-xonotlite, Mg-gyrolite, and Mg-truscottite can rarely coexist with brucite. Hydrogarnet phase disappeared when Mg-truscottite was formed.     

Phase Relationships in the ZrO2-Sc2O3 and ZrO2-In2O3 Systems

Zirconia-rich subsolidus phase relationships in the ZrO₂–Sc₂O₃ and ZrO₂–In₂O₃ systems were investigated. Phase inconsistencies in the ZrO₂–Sc₂O₃ system resulted from a diffusionless cubic-to-tetragonal ( t' ) phase transformation not being recognized in the past. Through three different measuring techniques, along with microstructural observations, the solubility limits of the tetragonal and cubic phases were determined.

15%田草灵高效液相色谱分析

采用Ｎｏｖａ－Ｐａｋ Ｃ１８不锈钢色谱柱进行反相液相色谱分析，以甲醇：水＝６５：３５（Ｖ／Ｖ）为注动相，以邻苯二甲醇二乙酯为内标物，用内标法测定田草灵除草剂中苄嘧黄隆和异丙甲草胺的含量，结果表明，各有效成分与内标物色谱峰分离完全，杂质无干扰，测定结果，苄嘧黄隆和异丙甲草胺的变异系数分别为０．７４％和１．０７％，回收率分别为９９．４％￣１００．８％和９９．１％￣１０１．３％。     

Multi-label core vector machine with a zero label

Multi-label core vector machine (Rank-CVM) is an efficient and effective algorithm for multi-label classification. But there still exist two aspects to be improved: reducing training and testing computational costs further, and detecting relevant labels effectively. In this paper, we extend Rank-CVM via adding a zero label to construct its variant with a zero label, i.e., Rank-CVMz, which is formulated as the same quadratic programming form with a unit simplex constraint and non-negative ones as Rank-CVM, and then is solved by Frank–Wolfe method efficiently. Attractively, our Rank-CVMz has fewer variables to be solved than Rank-CVM, which speeds up training procedure dramatically. Further, the relevant labels are effectively detected by the zero label. Experimental results on 12 benchmark data sets demonstrate that our method achieves a competitive performance, compared with six existing multi-label algorithms according to six indicative instance-based measures. Moreover, on the average, our Rank-CVMz runs 83 times faster and has slightly fewer support vectors than its origin Rank-CVM.     

国外塑料用着色剂及颜料市场的现状及趋势

综述了国外塑料着色剂和颜料的最新市场,尤其是美国和西德市场的最新动向。分别陈述了美国着色剂中镉的消费量和西德塑料工业中镉的消费量。指出了镉颜料具有色彩鲜艳、遮盖力强、分散性好、以及耐候、耐化学品和超热稳定性的优点。但是公众对重金属镉有引起肾病和致癌可能性的关注和耽忧与日俱增,因此在塑料制品中逐渐摒弃镉颜料及着色剂、使用镉的代用品,是一个值得注意的新动向。一些公司在摒弃镉的同时,正在研制符合环境要求的安全替代品。本文还对最新上市的十余种塑料着色剂及颜料新产品进行了报导。
