The catalytic activity of LaCoO3–-based mixed oxides for the oxidative coupling of methane has been tested by TPR and cyclic reaction. Characterization has been done by XRD, TGA and Mössbauer spectrometry. It is likely that the perovskite-crystal structure containing hypervalent metal ions has an important role and that unique structural oxygen species in the perovskite contribute to the partial oxidation of methane. 相似文献
Microporous carbons have been synthesized by the carbonization of cationic surfactant-resorcinol/formaldehyde (RF) composites, which were themselves formed by electrostatic organic-organic interaction. The porous structure produced by the decomposition of the surfactant plays an important role for the gasification of the RF polymer at higher temperatures. The pore size of the carbon prepared from tetrapropylammonium bromide (TPAB)-RF, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (C16TAB)-RF and decyltrimethylammonium bromide (C10TAB)-RF mixtures can be estimated as 0.53 nm from the Horvath-Kawazoe method using N2 adsorption isotherms. Their pore size distributions were very narrow, showing that the microporous carbons derived from surfactant-RF mixture may have promise as adsorbents and membrane materials. 相似文献
Biosafety is an important part of the know-how of all clinical
laboratory professionals. Biosafely must have high priority in the
design and use of analytical systems. Attention should be focused
on reducing the handling of biological specimens, reducing
biohazards to laboratory personnel, and on improving the labelling
and containment of biohazardous materials. In this paper, biosafety
issues are discussed in relation to the design of analytical systems,
their use and maintenance. 相似文献
Two types of organic–inorganic hybrid base catalysts are prepared. Organic-functionalized molecular sieves (OFMSs), particularly “amine-immobilized porous silicates”, are designed based on common idea to immobilize catalytic active sites on silicate surface. Silicate–organic composite materials (SOCMs), such as “ordered porous silicate–quaternary ammonium composite materials”, are the precursors of ordered porous silicates obtained during the synthesis. Both the OFMS and the SOCM are used as the catalysts for Knoevenagel condensation. Among the OFMSs, there is clear tendency that the use of molecular sieve with larger pore volume and/or surface area gives the product in higher yield. Aminopropylsilyl (AP)-functionalized mesoporous silicates such as AP-MCM-41 gives the product in high yield under mild conditions. No loss of activity is observed after repeated use for three times. The SOCMs are also active for the same reaction. The precursors of the mesoporous silicates are more active than those of microporous silicates. This material can be repeatedly used without significant loss of activity. High activity is not due to the leached species. The active sites of the SOCM catalysts are considered to be SiO− moieties located on the pore-mouth. Activity of the SOCM increases when the reaction is carried out without solvent, whereas decrease in activity of the OFMS is observed in the solvent-free system. 相似文献
Natural fiber‐reinforced biodegradable polyester composites were prepared from biodegradable polyesters and surface‐untreated or ‐treated abaca fibers (length ca. 5 mm) by melt mixing and subsequent injection molding. Poly(butylene succinate)(PBS), polyestercarbonate (PEC)/poly(lactic acid)(PLA) blend, and PLA were used as biodegradable polyesters. Esterifications using acetic anhydride and butyric anhydride, alkali treatment, and cyanoethylation were performed as surface treatments on the fiber. The flexural moduli of all the fiber‐reinforced composites increased with fiber content. The effect of the surface treatment on the flexural modulus of the fiber‐reinforced composites was not so pronounced. The flexural strength of PBS composites increased with fiber content, and esterification of the fiber by butyric anhydride gave the best result. For the PEC/PLA composites, flexural strength increased slightly with increased fiber content (0–20 wt.‐%) in the case of using untreated fiber, while it increased considerably in the case of using the fiber esterified by butyric anhydride. For the PLA composite, flexural strength did not increase with the fiber reinforcement. The result of soil‐burial tests showed that the composites using untreated fiber have a higher weight loss than both the neat resin and the composites made using acetylated fiber.

An organic aqueous solution of metal acetylacetonate precursors was subjected to spray pyrolysis in order to fabricate SrAl2O4:Eu (SAO) nanoparticles. Non-agglomerated luminescent SAO nanoparticles, having a spherical shape with a size of 10–30 nm, were achieved in a single step, while only submicrometer-sized SAO particles were obtained from the conventional ultrasonic pyrolysis of the metal nitrates. Without any post-annealing process, the as-prepared SAO nanoparticles were observed to exhibit a strong photoluminescence, which is comparable with that of the submicrometer-sized SAO particles. A mechanism for the formation of the nanoparticles is also discussed. 相似文献
Electro-rheological (ER) effect of a blend composed of two liquid crystalline materials with different molecular weights is described in this article. The results indicated that ER effect of the blend was observed at the temperature range where each neat sample did not show ER effect. Furthermore, both storage modulus (G′) and loss modulus (G″) decreased drastically at the temperature range for the blend in dynamic viscoelastic measurements. We show that steady ER effect could be obtained by using a blend made up of two liquid crystalline components, whereas remarkable increment in shear stress was not observed for each component under applied electric field. 相似文献
Type-A zeolite evenly covered with hydroxyapatite thin layers was prepared using hydrothermal treatment at 120°C for 8 h under autogenous pressure. The hydroxyapatite needlelike nanocrystals, 100–200 nm in diameter and 30 nm in thickness, were grown under the reaction between discharged Ca2+ ions from type-A zeolite and PO43− ions in (NH4)3PO4 solution. The preferential orientations of the c -axis of hydroxyapatite crystals perpendicular to a zeolite surface were observed using transmission electron microscopy. The crystal structure of type-A zeolite was not destroyed under the reaction, but the surface morphology was changed only with complete covering of scaly hydroxyapatite particles. 相似文献
CaxBa1−xTiO3 (CBT) fine particles doped with red luminescence center of Pr3+ ions (Pr: CBT) were successfully synthesized by salt assisted spray pyrolysis (SASP) process. Scanning electronic microscope
(SEM) and laser scattering analysis demonstrate that salt can be removed from the surface of particles by washing with Milli-Q
water and the particles can be further separated by ball-milling to get well-dispersed Pr3+ ions doped CBT fine particles. The luminescence properties, such as photoluminescence (PL) and mechanoluminescence (ML),
of as-synthesized Pr: CBT particles were investigated. For Pr: CBT fine particles with different Ca molar ratios, all the
samples show one emission at 612 nm, with increasing Ca molar ratio, PL intensity of Pr: CBT fine particles become stronger
and stronger. When pressure was loaded on the Pr: CBT pellet, mechanoluminescence(ML) emission was measured. The results show
that the ML intensity is proportional to the applied pressure. 相似文献
