Preparation and Characterization of C10–C14 Alkyl Cellulose Ester Sulfate Surfactant

The aim of this work is to synthesize surfactants based on cellulose with different molecular weights. Raw cotton cellulose was tailored into cellulose segments with different molecular weights by a hydrothermal process, then the average degree of polymerization (DP) was determined by viscosimetry and the molecular weight distribution was estimated by gel permeation chromatography. The C₁₀–C₁₄ alkyl cellulose ester sulfate surfactants were prepared by hydrophilic sulfonation and hydrophobic esterification. The surface tension of the surfactants solution was obtained by the Wilhelmy plate method. Results showed that the cellulose segments presented a broader distribution compared with the raw material. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) value decreased from 1.08 to 0.86 wt% as the hydrophobic chain length was increased from 10 to 14. The CMC values of cellulose surfactants with C₁₄-acyl chloride hydrophobization decreased from 1.32 to 0.86 wt% as the DP was decreased from 2,700 to 296.     

Influences of heat-treatment on the microstructure and properties of silica–titania composite aerogels

Silica–titania composite aerogels were synthesized via ambient pressure drying by using water glass and titanium tetrachloride as raw materials. The influences of heat-treatment at different temperature with different heating rate on the microstructure and properties of the composite aerogels were investigated by differential thermal analyzer, Fourier transform infrared spectrometer, X-ray diffraction, nitrogen adsorption–desorption, scanning electron microscope and transmission electron microscope analysis. The results indicate that the silica–titania composite aerogels heat-treated at 250 °C exhibited highest specific surface area, pore volume and average pore diameter. When the heat-treatment temperature was higher than 450 °C, the –CH₃ groups on the surface of silica–titania composite aerogels would transform into –OH groups gradually, and in the meantime, the composite aerogels network structure would be destroyed gradually and the crystallinity of TiO₂ would be improved with the increase of heat-treatment temperature. Particularly, heat-treatment at temperatures above 750 °C would cause serious damage to the network structure of the composite aerogels. The adsorption/photocatalytic activity experiments showed that the composite aerogels heat-treated at 550 °C exhibit highest darkroom adsorption efficiency, and the 650 °C-heat-treated samples exhibited highest efficiency for removing the Rhodamine B from water.     

Hydrothermally stable mesoporous aluminosilicates with moderate acidity via degradation-assembly process and improved catalytic properties

Mesoporous aluminosilicates with hydrothermal stability and moderate acidity are synthesized via assembly of microporous zeolite precursors obtained by the degradation of zeolite NaY, denoted as “degradation-assembly” (DA) technique. By controlling the degradation degree of matrix NaY, precursors with larger spatial volume and stronger rigidity will be obtained. The characterization results showed that the walls of the mesophase in MDA (mesoporous aluminosilicate obtained by “DA” method) composed of the preformed zeolite Y building units and the moderate acidity was inherited from the introduced precursors. It was suggested that the more mature assembly units accounted for the increased acidity of MDA with more Al species retained in the framework of mesophases. The resulting aluminosilicates with simultaneously moderate acidity and hydrothermal stability showed superior catalytic properties when used in heavy oil catalytic cracking catalysts.     

Synthesis and characterization of LTA zeolite with uniform intracrystal mesopores directed by bridged polysilsesquioxane monomer

An ordered mesoporous LTA zeolites (MLTA) have been synthesized in presence of the bridged polysilsesquioxane monomer (BS-1) as mesoporogen. The relatively well-defined small-angle X-ray diffraction peaks and nitrogen sorption isotherms with narrow pore size distribution centered at around 2.2 nm both indicated the presence of uniformly mesopores in MLTA samples. The scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy observations further confirmed that the uniform and partially interconnected intracrystal mesopores were randomly distributed throughout the globular particles with rugged surfaces. Interestingly, removal of the BS-1 resulted in uniform mesopore diameters that are nearly consistent with the molecular size of BS-1 (1.8 nm). ²⁹Si MAS NMR revealed that the BS-1 was linked to MLTA zeolite crystal surface through 2 Si–O bonds and 3 Si–O bonds before calcinations. Nitrogen sorption analysis showed that the mesoporosity in MLTA samples could be adjusted by adding different amounts of BS-1 in starting gels. Relative to conventional mesoporous materials, one obvious feature of MLTA is that the resultant mesopores were structured by the bridged polysilsesquioxane monomer instead of commercial polymers or micelles, which broad the routes in synthesizing of various mesoporous materials with controllable pore size distribution, adjustable mesopore volume, and large surface area.     

常用预应力锚索的结构和特点

3．2施工中要注意的问题 3．2．1锚固段钢绞线的清洗拉力型锚索的拉力是依赖钢绞线与注浆体的粘结力经由注浆体传递给孔周的岩体,因此,锚固段钢绞上的油脂必须清洗干净。钢绞线上的防锈脂已渗入7根钢丝的内部空间,不能只清洗表面,必须把钢绞线散开,7根钢丝分别洗干净后再复原。这样做很麻烦,仅适用于锚索量小的工程。对于大型边坡工程,宜采用在封闭容器内用90℃以上高温水喷射清洗,这种方法不用散开钢绞线而且洗得干净;     

Quality dependence study on dimensions for plano-concave molded glass lenses

A comprehensive study was conducted to analyze the quality dependence of a plano-concave molded glass lens on its own dimensions, i.e. the effective diameter, sag ratio, and center thickness ratio. To achieve this goal, a thermal-displacement coupled finite element analysis was carried out on the whole molding process, in order to get the results of curve deviation, temperature gradient, and residual stress with sets of variations in these dimensions. Then Taguchi method, one approach for design of experiments, was incorporated to conduct sensitivity analysis on the simulation results to figure out the dominating sequence of these dimensions. The results show that the effective diameter is the most influential factor among these three dimensions. In addition, curve deviation is sensitively proportional to diameter and sag ratio, but decreases insignificantly with greater center thickness ratio. However, residual stress is distinctly proportional to diameter and center thickness ratio, but increases very slightly with greater sag ratio. Results also confirmed the consequential relationship between temperature gradient and residual stress. These discoveries are fundamentally meaningful in getting an overall understanding of the dimensions’ influence on the molded lens quality, thus will help make decision in choosing proper dimensions for optical design.     

MTBE装置设备腐蚀的探讨

甲基叔丁基醚(MTBE)装置生产过程中普遍存在设备酸腐蚀的问题,通过对MTBE生产装置各工艺系统中可能产生的酸进行理论分析,认定甲酸的存在是设备腐蚀的主要原因。甲酸的来源为甲醇原料带入(甲酸质量分数在0.001 5%以下)、甲酸盐与催化剂磺酸离子交换产生、甲醇原料带入的甲酸甲酯(质量分数0.01%以上)在生产过程中水解产生。根据理论分析结合实际生产数据推断,甲酸甲酯水解是甲酸的主要来源,因此提出在甲醇原料的采购指标中增加甲酸甲酯含量分析的监控指标,要求甲酸甲酯的质量分数控制在0.005%以下,能有效减少甲酸的生成,达到控制设备腐蚀的目的。
