CaCO3/natural rubber latex nanometer composite and its properties

Calcium carbonate/natural rubber (NR) latex nanometer composites were prepared by adding nanometer CaCO₃ whose surface had been treated to natural rubber latex (NRL) before sulfuration. The physical, thermooxidative aging, and thermal degradation properties and the ultra‐microstructure were analyzed with a multipurpose material testing meter, a thermal analysis meter and a Philips XL‐30 SEM, respectively. The results showed that the structures and properties of nanometer composites could be clearly improved by NRL mixed with surface‐treated nanometer CaCO₃. The physical properties of the nanometer composites were best when the content of surface treatment agent was 2.5% (to nanometer CaCO₃), the nanometer CaCO₃/NRL content was 3:100, and the stirring time for treating the surface of the nanometer CaCO₃ was 20 min. Simultaneously, the thermooxidative aging resistance of the nanometer composites also was significantly improved. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 101: 3442–3447, 2006     

Influence of epoxy resin on the morphological and rheological properties of PBT/ABS blends compatibilized by ASMA

Polybutylene terephthalate (PBT)/acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene (ABS) copolymer blends compatibilized by a mixture of styrene–acrylonitrile–maleic anhydride (ASMA) copolymers and epoxy resin (EP) were prepared through melt reactive extrusion. The morphological, rheological, and mechanical properties of these blends were studied. The epoxy functional groups of EP can react with anhydride groups of ASMA and the PBT terminal groups (? OH and ? COOH) simultaneously, leading to the formation of ASMA–EP–PBT graft copolymers. Because of the effective compatibilization of these copolymers at the interface, finer dispersed phase morphologies were obtained. Compared with PBT/ABS/ASMA blends, the addition of EP induced a more stable molten phase structure, with increases of storage moduli, loss moduli, and dynamic viscosities. Results indicated that 1.5 wt% of the EP in the blends was most suited for the compatibilization. Impact properties of these blends were also investigated. POLYM. ENG.

Consolidation of Nano-Sized TiN Powders by Spark Plasma Sintering

Nano-sized TiN powders with an average particle size of 19 nm were synthesized via a new method, reduction–nitridation reaction in liquid ammonia. A consolidation procedure using spark plasma sintering (SPS) was used, and a dense TiN ceramic (>98% of theoretical) with mean grain size of 100–150 nm was obtained at 1380°C. The influence of sintering temperature on grain growth and microstructural evolution was also discussed.

Hydrothermal Synthesis and Characterization of KxNa(1−x)NbO3 Powders

NaNbO₃, KNbO₃, and K _x Na_{(1− x )}NbO₃ powders were successfully prepared by the hydrothermal method. The phase of the products was identified to be orthorhombic structure by X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique, and the XRD results revealed that the x value of the K _x Na_{(1− x )}NbO₃ gradually increased with the increase in the ratio of K⁺ to Na⁺ in alkaline solution. The morphology and the microstructure were investigated by scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy, and the results indicated that the ratio of K⁺ to Na⁺ in the solution had a great effect on the morphology and the size of products. Na_0.5K_0.5NbO₃ with morphotropic phase boundary composition could be synthesized when the molar ratio of K⁺ to Na⁺ was between 4:1 and 6:1 in the solution. A possible formation mechanism of the K _x Na_{(1− x )}NbO₃ crystal was also proposed based on the experimental results.     

Thermooxidative degradation of natural rubber/clay composite

The clay is treated with a reducing agent and an acid so as to obtain a clay containing various metal components with a variable‐valence state. Then, the clay is coprecipitated with natural rubber (NR) latex to prepare a vulcanized NR/clay composite. The degradation process of the NR/clay composite under hot air condition was studied dynamically by using a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer attaching an in situ sample cell and was also investigated using the TGA method. The test result obtained from the infrared spectrometry indicated that under low decomposition temperature, the decomposition products of the test samples mainly are ethylene, low molecular olefinic hydrocarbon, and carbonyl compounds. As the decomposition temperature rises, the low molecular olefinic hydrocarbon content decreases, the olefine with longer chain is formed, and a lot of alkane decomposition products are formed at the same time. When the content of the metal components with a variable‐valence state in clay such as Cu, Mn, Co, and Fe increases, the oxidation products containing the carbonyl group, the olefinic hydrocarbon, and CO₂ in the decomposition product of the test sample also increase. The TGA result clearly shows a shoulder peak that appears by the side of the main peak on the DTG curve of NR/clay composite. With the increase in the content of metal components with variable‐valence state in clay, the initial degradation temperature of the test sample (T₀), the degradation peak temperature (T_p1), and the final degradation temperature (T_f1) in first‐stage reaction, as well as the degradation peak temperature (T_p2) and the last final degradation temperature (T_f) in second‐stage reaction of all the test samples more or less shift to the direction of low temperature; besides, the activation energy (E) of the reaction of the test samples more or less decreases. This means that the metal components with variable‐valence state promote the oxidative degradation of the clay–rubber masterbatch. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Optimality of partial adiabatic search and its circuit model

In this paper, we first uncover a fact that a partial adiabatic quantum search with \(O(\sqrt{N/M})\) time complexity is in fact optimal, in which \(N\) is the total number of elements in an unstructured database, and \(M\) ( \(M\ge 1\) ) of them are the marked ones(one) \((N\gg M)\) . We then discuss how to implement a partial adiabatic search algorithm on the quantum circuit model. From the implementing procedure on the circuit model, we can find out that the approximating steps needed are always in the same order of the time complexity of the adiabatic algorithm.     

Stabilization of positive switched systems with time-varying delays under asynchronous switching

This paper investigates the state feedback stabilization problem for a class of positive switched systems with time-varying delays under asynchronous switching in the frameworks of continuous-time and discrete-time dynamics. The so-called asynchronous switching means that the switches between the candidate controllers and system modes are asynchronous. By constructing an appropriate co-positive type Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and further allowing the functional to increase during the running time of active subsystems, sufficient conditions are provided to guarantee the exponential stability of the resulting closed-loop systems, and the corresponding controller gain matrices and admissible switching signals are presented. Finally, two illustrative examples are given to show the effectiveness of the proposed methods.
