Densification and Cell Performance of Gadolinium-Doped Ceria (GDC) Electrolyte/NiO–GDC Anode Laminates

A thin film (60 μm thick) of a gadolinium-doped ceria (GDC) electrolyte was prepared by the doctor blade method. This film was laminated with freeze-dried 42 vol% NiO–58 vol% GDC mixed powder and pressed uniaxially or isostatically under a pressure of 294 MPa. This laminate was cosintered at 1100 °–1500 °C in air for 4–12 h. The laminate warped because of the difference in the shrinkage of the electrolyte and electrode during the sintering. A higher shrinkage was measured for the electrode at 1100 °–1200 °C and for the electrolyte at 1300 °–1500 °C. The increase of the thickness of anode was effective in decreasing the warp and in increasing the density of the laminated composite. The maximum electric power density with a SrRuO₃ cathode using 3 vol% H₂O-containing H₂ fuel was 100 mW/cm² at 600 °C and 380 mW/cm² at 800 °C, respectively, for the anode-supported GDC electrolyte with 30 μm thickness.     

Spherical-Impact Damage and Strength Degradation in Silicon Nitrides for Automobile Turbocharger Rotors

Spherical-impact damage to two silicon nitrides is investigated. Gas-pressure-sintered silicon nitride exhibits an elastic response to impact by spherical partially stabilized zirconia particles, resulting in Hertzian cone-crack initiation in the sintered body. Pressureless-sintered silicon nitride, on the other hand, demonstrated an elastic/plastic response, with median/radical-crack initiation. These differences in behavior are due to their microstructural differences as well as to the different hardness values of the silicon nitrides in relation to those of the PSZ spheres. The postimpact bend strength of silicon nitrides is also degraded when crack length exceeds the inherent flaw size.     

Pervaporation separation of water/ethanol mixtures through polysaccharide membranes. II. The permselectivity of chitosan membrane

The separation of water/alcohol mixtures through chitosan membrane was investigated. The degree of the deacetylation of chitosan did not affect the selectivity of the membrane in the separation of the water/ethanol mixture. The selectivity of the chitosan membrane was affected by the specific salts such as CoSO₄, ZnSO₄, and MnSO₄ and it increased when the salts were present in the feed mixture or the membrane was pretreated with the salt solution. This behavior would be explained by the contraction of the “holes” produced by the thermal motion of polymer chains and this contraction would be correlated with the conformation change of chitosan molecule due to the formation of complexes with metal ions.     

“Click Peptide“: pH‐Triggered in Situ Production and Aggregation of Monomer Aβ1–42

Into neutral : We demonstrate the unique features of a pH click peptide based on an O‐acyl isopeptide method. Under acidic conditions, the click peptide remains in a monomeric form. Upon increase of the pH to 7.4, the click peptide is quickly able to convert into Aβ1–42 through an O‐to‐N intramolecular acyl migration. Further study using this pH click peptide would elucidate the pathological role of Aβ1–42 in Alzheimer's disease.

     

Miscibility and Physical Properties of Poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate‐co‐3‐hydroxyhexanoate)/Poly(ethylene oxide) Binary Blends

In order to improve some inferior physical properties of bacterial poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate‐co‐3‐hydroxyhexanoate) [P(3HB‐co‐3HHx)] by blending with PEO, the miscibility, spherulite morphology, crystallization behavior and mechanical properties of P(3HB‐co‐3HHx)/PEO binary biodegradable polymer blends were investigated. A good miscibility between P(3HB‐co‐3HHx) with a 3HHx unit content of 11 mol‐% and PEO in the amorphous state was found when the PEO weight fraction was 10 wt.‐%, while the miscibility decreased dramatically when the PEO weight fraction exceeded 20 wt.‐%. Strongly depending on the blend composition, the mechanical properties of P(3HB‐co‐3HHx) was found to be significantly improved by blending with PEO with a weight fraction of ≈5–17.5 wt.‐%.

     

SiCp及Al2O3w增强铸态混杂金属基复合材料的疲劳裂纹扩展机理（英文）

研究了一种SiCp及Al2O3w增强铸态混杂金属基复合材料(MMC)的疲劳裂纹扩展(FCG)机理,同时对比研究了Al2O3w增强铸态金属基复合材料和铸态铝合金的疲劳裂纹扩展机理。在研究近临界和裂纹稳定扩展区域的疲劳裂纹扩展(FCG)机理时,发现混杂MMC的临界应力强度因子?Kth值高于其他两种材料的?Kth值,说明应力强度因子?K值较低时混杂MMC可以更好地抵抗裂纹扩展。随着?K值的降低,两种MMC在近临界区域显示出相似的FCG机理,即主要由增强相–基体界面的剥离控制,随后由铝基体中空隙的形核与合并控制;在裂纹稳定或中等扩展区域,?K值较高时FCG除了受界面上周期性裂纹扩展引起的增强相–基体界面剥离的影响之外,还显著受到铝基体中疲劳条带的影响。此外,在高?K值下,因为局部失稳断裂机制,可见铝基体中空隙的形核与合并以及SiCp和Al2O3w中的穿晶断裂。对于铸态铝合金,在低?K值下,FCG主要受空隙的形核与合并所控制;在高?K值下,FCG主要受铝晶粒的疲劳条带控制,随后受Si团簇中空隙的形核与合并控制。     

Synthesis and characterization of fullerene grafted poly(ε‐caprolactone)

The fullerene grafted poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PCL) was successfully synthesized with a graft efficiency of 80%. The fullerene moieties grafted onto the PCL chain aggregate into 1–2 μm particles so that a physical pseudo‐network is formed. Because of the existence of the network structure, the fullerene grafted PCL film can retain its shape at much higher temperatures than that of pure PCL film, as observed in dynamic mechanical tests. It shows a hydrophobic gelling behavior in chloroform solution. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2008     

Thermal and mechanical properties of a poly(ϵ‐caprolactone)/graphite oxide composite

The effect of graphite oxide (GO) as the enforcing filler on the properties of poly(?‐caprolactone) (PCL) was investigated in this study. Through the introduction of GO, the Young's modulus of PCL was increased from 340 to 1000 MPa, and the tensile strength of PCL was increased from 15 to 26 MPa. Furthermore, the interlayer distance of GO (0.6 nm) was found to expand to 1.1 nm in the PCL/GO composite, which indicated the intercalation of the PCL chain into the GO layers. Because of this intercalation structure of the PCL/GO composite, GO showed a higher reinforcing effect than graphite on the mechanical properties of PCL. The intercalation should have enabled much effective load transfer in the PCL/GO composites. Moreover, GO showed a nucleating effect toward the crystallization of PCL, as the nonisothermal crystallization peak temperature shifted from 25°C for pure PCL to about 34°C for the PCL/GO composites. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Conductive Papers Containing Metallized Polyester Fibers for Electromagnetic Interference Shielding

Conductive papers were developed for preventing or reducing electromagnetic interference (EMI), and their shielding efficiency was evaluated. This type of conductive paper consists of wood pulp, synthetic pulp and metallized polyester fibers (0.5–2.0 mm long and 14 m in diameter) whose surfaces are coated with nickel alone (Ni-PET) or copper and nickel double layers (Ni-Cu-PET) by electroless plating. In this report, the effect of the characteristics of these metallized fibers, such as their conductivity, geometry and the concentration of fibers in paper, which lead to high efficiency for shielding effectiveness is discussed. For instance, one of the conductive papers (80 g/m2) which was prepared by mixing 40% Ni-Cu-PET and 60% synthetic polyethylene pulp showed over 40 dB shielding effectiveness between 10 MHz and 1 GHz.
