In this research, linear low-density polyethylene (PE-LLD), cast polypropylene (PPcast), and bioriented coextruded polypropylene
(BOPP) were used as polymeric materials. Permeability, diffusivity, and solubility of N2, O2, and CO2 through above polymers were obtained at different temperatures. The structure and thermal–mechanical features of the films
were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The permeability, diffusivity,
solubility, and their temperature dependency were studied by correlations with gas molecule properties. The highest permeation
coefficients (>3.8 × 10−8 cm3 cm−1 s−1 bar−1) are obtained for PPcast at 60 °C. Activation energy for permeation follows the sequence: N2 > O2 > CO2 for PE-LLD and PPcast. On the other hand, the diffusion activation energy follows the order: O2 > CO2 > N2 and N2 > CO2 > O2 for PE-LLD and PPcast, respectively. In the case of BOPP, activation energy follows the sequence: O2 > CO2 > N2; CO2 > N2 > O2; and O2 > CO2 > N2 for permeation, diffusion, and heat of sorption, respectively. 相似文献
Two sequential steps are common to the biosynthesis of all penicillin-derived antibiotics: the reaction of three L-amino acids to give L-delta-(alpha-aminoadipoyl)-L-cysteinyl-D-valine, and the oxidation of this tripeptide to give isopenicillin N. Recent studies on the peptide synthetase and oxidase enzymes responsible for these steps have implications for the mechanisms and structures of related enzymes involved in a range of metabolic processes. 相似文献
An attempt is made on the definition of proportional distribution of the different types of neurons in the layers of LGN by means of quantitative method. On the basis of nuclear volume, nuclear and cell diameters the different types of neurons were separated according to their size and shape. The ratio of relay and interneurons proved to be 2:1 in all layers of LGN of cat. The proportional distribution of further subgroups of neurons was also defined. The bilateral connections between the relay and interneurons based on initial axon collateral of TCR neurons and on axon terminals and dendritic appendages of INs, are also calculated. The interneurons--in the LGN--have widespread contacts with both types of relay neurons, similarly the relay neurons contact the interneurons. The numerical data of morphological observations are accord with the results of physiologists. 相似文献
In this paper, we present a new method for analyzing fuzzy risk based on a new method for ranking generalized fuzzy numbers. First, we present a new method for ranking generalized fuzzy numbers. It considers the areas on the positive side, the areas on the negative side and the heights of the generalized fuzzy numbers to evaluate ranking scores of the generalized fuzzy numbers. The proposed method can overcome the drawbacks of some existing methods for ranking generalized fuzzy numbers. Then, we apply the proposed method for ranking generalized fuzzy numbers to develop a new method for dealing with fuzzy risk analysis problems. The proposed method provides us with a useful way to deal with fuzzy risk analysis problems based on generalized fuzzy numbers. 相似文献
The influence of temperature and applied lacquer on aluminium (Al) tubes on physico-chemical changes of tomato paste during storage was studied. Packaging and storage conditions have a considerable influence on both the oxidative changes in the product and corrosion behaviour of the Al tubes. The greatest changes during storage were the ascorbic acid and hydroxymethylfurfural contents; the compounds known to possess certain oxido-reduction power. The consequence of oxidation-reduction reactions taking place during storage was the establishment of particular redox values: the lower the reducing power of the compounds present, the higher the rH value obtained.
Braunwerden und Redoxpotential des Tomatenkonzentrates bei verschiedenen Lagerungstemperaturen
Zusammenfassung Es wurden der Einfluß der Temperatur und der Alu-Verpackung auf physikalisch-chemische Änderungen des Tomatenkonzentrates während der Lagerung untersucht. Dabei wurde festgestellt, daß die Verpackung und die Lagerungsbedingungen auf die oxydativen Veränderungen des Tomatenkonzentrates und der Korrosionsprozeß in der Alu-Verpackung einen großen Einfluß haben. Die größte Änderungen während der Lagerung wurde im Gehalt an Askorbinsäure und Hydroxymethylfurfural festgestellt. Die genannten Verbindungen haben gewisse Redox-Eigenschaften. Die Redox-Reaktion während der Lagerung hat Einfluß auf die Veränderung des Redox-Potentials, und zwar ist dieses um so höher, je niedriger die Reduktionskraft der anwesenden Verbindungen ist.
Rhamnolipids are a class of biosurfactants that have a great potential to be used in industries. Five proteins/enzymes, namely RhlA, RhlB, RhlC, RhlG and RhlI, are critical for the production of rhamnolipids in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Four of the 5 proteins except RhlC were successfully over-expressed in E. coli and three of them (RhlA, RhlB and RhlI) were purified and obtained in milligram quantities. The purified proteins were shown to be folded in solution. Homology models were built for RhlA, RhlB and RhlI. These results lay a basis for further structural and functional characterization of these proteins in vitro to favor the construction of super strains for rhamnolipids production.
The stability of ReB2‐type hexagonal OsB2 powder at high temperature with oxygen presence has been studied by thermogravimetric analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, SEM, EDS, and high‐temperature scanning transmission electron microscopy and XRD. Results of the study revealed that OsB2 ceramics interact readily with oxygen present in reducing atmosphere, especially at high temperature and produces boric acid, which decomposes on the surface of the powder resulting in the formation of boron vacancies in the hexagonal OsB2 lattice as well as changes in the stoichiometry of the compound. It was also found that under low oxygen partial pressure, sintering of OsB2 powders occurred at a relatively low temperature (900°C). Hexagonal OsB2 ceramic is prone to oxidation and it is very sensitive to oxygen partial pressures, especially at high temperatures. 相似文献
We describe a camera to record coherent scattering patterns with a soft-x-ray free-electron laser (FEL). The camera consists of a laterally graded multilayer mirror, which reflects the diffraction pattern onto a CCD detector. The mirror acts as a bandpass filter for both the wavelength and the angle, which isolates the desired scattering pattern from nonsample scattering or incoherent emission from the sample. The mirror also solves the particular problem of the extreme intensity of the FEL pulses, which are focused to greater than 10(14) W/cm2. The strong undiffracted pulse passes through a hole in the mirror and propagates onto a beam dump at a distance behind the instrument rather than interacting with a beam stop placed near the CCD. The camera concept is extendable for the full range of the fundamental wavelength of the free electron laser in Hamburg (FLASH) FEL (i.e., between 6 and 60 nm) and into the water window. We have fabricated and tested various multilayer mirrors for wavelengths of 32, 16, 13.5, and 4.5 nm. At the shorter wavelengths mirror roughness must be minimized to reduce scattering from the mirror. We have recorded over 30,000 diffraction patterns at the FLASH FEL with no observable mirror damage or degradation of performance. 相似文献
