Thermal and mechanical properties of the polymers synthesized by the sequential polymerization of propylene and 1‐hexadecene

The block copolymer of poly(1‐hexadecene) (PHD) and polypropylene (PP) was effectively synthesized by the sequential polymerization of propylene and 1‐hexadecene by using highly isospecific TiCl₃/Cp₂Ti(CH₃)₂ (Cp = cyclopentadienyl). The block copolymers had two separate melting temperatures of constituent blocks. The modulus of PHD–PP block copolymer was enhanced as the content of sequentially polymerized PP block was increased. The elongation at break showed positive deviation at the intermediate compositions from the simple additive values of constituent homopolymers. Shape memory effect which utilizes the crystalline PHD block as a reversible phase and the crystalline PP block as a fixed structure was examined. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Effects of polyoxyethylene nonylphenol on dynamic mechanical properties and crystallization of polypropylene

Polypropylene (PP) was blended with polyoxyethylene nonylphenol (PN) in a twin-screw extruder and injection moulded. The dynamic mechanical properties of PP/PN blends were characterized by dynamic mechanical analyser (DMA). The glass transition temperature (T_g) of PP showed a slight decrease with incorporation of PN. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), wide angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD) and polarized optical microscopy (POM) were employed to investigate the effects of PN on crystallization of PP. In a study of nonisothermal crystallization of PP and PP/PN blends, crystallization parameter analysis showed the addition of PN reduced the peak temperature of crystallization. β-form crystals of PP coexisted with α-form crystals in PP/PN blends, and oriented on the surface layer of injection moulded bar as revealed by WAXD. The degree of orientation was determined using Hermans orientation function. The thermal stability of β-form crystals was evaluated using high temperature WAXD and POM.     

Fe doping effect on EuTiO3: The magnetic properties and giant magnetocaloric effect

The magnetic properties and magnetocaloric effect for EuTi_1-xFe_xO₃ (x = 0.05, 0.1) compounds are investigated. When a part of Ti⁴⁺ions were substituted by Fe ions, the AFM ordering can be significantly changed to be FM. The EuTi_1-xFe_xO₃ (x = 0.05, 0.1) compounds exhibit a PM to FM transition with decreasing temperature and the Curie temperature is 6 K. Under the field changes of 1 T, and RC are valued to be 10.1 J/kg K and 50.2 J/kg for EuTi_0.95Fe_0.05O₃; 9.6 J/kg K and 47.7 J/kg for EuTi_0.9Fe_0.1O₃, without magnetic and thermal hysteresis. RC is almost twice as much as EuTiO₃ (27 J/kg) as substitution of Fe³⁺ ions for Ti⁴⁺ions, which may be attributed to the magnetic transition (AFM to FM). Therefore, the giant and large RC suggest the EuTi_1-xFe_xO₃ compounds are good materials for magnetic refrigerant.     

Preparation,characterization and salt-resistance of a coal based super absorbent composite

Potassium humate was extracted from brown coal.A novel super absorbent composite,poly (acrylic acid-co-acrylamide)/potassium humate (PAA-AM/KHA),was prepared by graft polymerization of acrylic acid,acrylamide and coal based potassium humate using N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide as a crosslinker and potassium peroxydisulfate as an initiator.The effects of reaction temperature,degree of neutralization of the poly (acrylic acid) and the amounts of crosslinker,initiator and potassium humate were investigated.Salt resistance tests were also carried out.The composite prepared under optimal conditions had a potassium humate content of 10% and exhibited a water absorption of 770 g/g in distilled water,and 349,286 and 41 g/g in 0.5 mol/L KC1,MgCl2 and AlCl3 solutions respectively.The results indicate that the salt resistance of PAA-AM/KHA was superior to that of poly (acrylic acid-co-acrylamide) because of the collaborative effect of functional groups of the coal based potassium humate.The PAA-AM/KHA micro powder was characterized by IR spectroscopy and the micrographic surface was characterized by scanning electron microscopy.Introduction of potassium humate into the poly (acrylic acid-co-acrylamide) structure creates a composite more suitable for use as a water-managing material in the renewal of arid and desert environments.The salt resisting property of the composite is improved,production costs are reduced and the growth stimulant effect is still present.

A process study of electron beam nano-lithography and deep etching with an ICP system

A systemic process study on an electron beam nanolithography system operating at 100 kV was present. The exposure conditions were optimized for resist ZEP520A. Grating structures with line/space of 50 nm/50 nm were obtained in a reasonably thick resist which is beneficial to the subsequent pattern transfer technique. The ICP etching process conditions was optimized. The role of etching parameters such as source power, gas pressure, and gas flow rate on the etching result was also discussed. A grating structure with line widths as small as 100 nm, duty cycles of 0.5, depth of 900 nm, and the side-wall scalloping as small as 5 nm on a silicon substrate was obtained. The silicon deep etching technique for structure sizes smaller than 100 nm is very important for the fabrication of nano-optical devices working in the visible regime.

Interfacial adhesion reaction of polyethylene and starch blends using maleated polyethylene reactive compatibilizer

The interfacial reaction of the polyethylene (PE)/starch blend system containing the reactive compatibilizer maleated polyethylene (m‐PE) was directly characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. A significant amount of anhydride groups on m‐PE existed as hydrolyzed forms, resulting in a large amount of carboxyl groups. Using a vacuum‐heating‐cell designed in the laboratory, the carboxyl groups were successfully transformed into the dehydrolyzed state (i.e., anhydride group). This result enabled the direct spectroscopic observation of chemical reaction occurring at the interface. For the PE/starch blend system containing m‐PE, the chemical reaction at the interface was verified by the evolution of ester and carboxyl groups in the FTIR spectra. The effect of the reactive compatibilizer on the interfacial morphology was also examined by scanning electron micrography (SEM). Enhanced interfacial adhesion was clearly observed for the blend system containing reactive compatibilizer. Tensile strengths of blend systems containing m‐PE also increased noticeably compared with the corresponding system without compatibilizer. A similar observation was made for the breaking elongation data. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 83: 767–776, 2002     

时空双仿射微分不变量及骨架动作识别

目的 人体骨架的动态变化对于动作识别具有重要意义。从关节轨迹的角度出发,部分对动作类别判定具有价值的关节轨迹传达了最重要的信息。在同一动作的每次尝试中,相应关节的轨迹一般具有相似的基本形状,但其具体形式会受到一定的畸变影响。基于对畸变因素的分析,将人体运动中关节轨迹的常见变换建模为时空双仿射变换。方法 首先用一个统一的表达式以内外变换的形式将时空双仿射变换进行描述。基于变换前后轨迹曲线的微分关系推导设计了双仿射微分不变量,用于描述关节轨迹的局部属性。基于微分不变量和关节坐标在数据结构上的同构特点,提出了一种通道增强方法,使用微分不变量将输入数据沿通道维度扩展后,输入神经网络进行训练与评估,用于提高神经网络的泛化能力。结果 实验在两个大型动作识别数据集NTU（Nanyang Technological University）RGB+D（NTU 60）和NTU RGB+D 120（NTU 120）上与若干最新方法及两种基线方法进行比较,在两种实验设置（跨参与者识别与跨视角识别）中均取得了明显的改进结果。相比于使用原始数据的时空图神经卷积网络（spatio-temporal graph convolutional networks,ST-GCN）,在NTU 60数据集中,跨参与者与跨视角的识别准确率分别提高了1.9%和3.0%;在NTU 120数据集中,跨参与者与跨环境的识别准确率分别提高了5.6%和4.5%。同时对比于数据增强,基于不变特征的通道增强方法在两种实验设置下都能有明显改善,更为有效地提升了网络的泛化能力。结论 本文提出的不变特征与通道增强,直观有效地综合了传统特征和深度学习的优点,有效提高了骨架动作识别的准确性,改善了神经网络的泛化能力。
