Intercalated clays from pentaerythritol stearate for use in polymer nanocomposites

Smectite clays treated with quaternary ammonium salts have been utilized for decades in paints, greases, cosmetics, and personal care products as rheological modifiers. They have also been used in industrial wastewater treatment extensively. In more recent times these surface modified clays have demonstrated benefits in polymer/clay nanocomposites. The use of quaternary ammonium modifiers limits the usefulness of these composites in food packaging because they are not approved for direct food contact. It would be advantageous to have surface modifying chemicals acceptable for direct food contact in these composites. This article reports research conducted on a promising surface modifier pentaerythritol stearate (PS), which is approved by the FDA for inclusion in food as a preservative. The surface modification of montmorillonite with PS is reported in detail as well as the production of nanocomposites with selected polymers made with the modified clay. Molecular modeling and purification of commercial PS samples indicate that the mono‐ and diesters are the critical surface modifiers, although the as received commercial material works well in forming intercalated clay complexes. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Dynamic photorheological analysis of photopolymerizable urethane dimethacrylate resins with varying diluent content and light fluence

The in situ measurement of dynamic changes in viscosity induced by illumination has been performed on a range of photosensitive urethane dimethacrylates (UDMA) evaluating the response at three different illuminations intensities (1, 2, and 5 W cm^?2) and at three different diluent concentrations (15, 30, and 50%), using 1,6‐hexanediol dimethacrylate (HDDMA). The initial viscosity value ranged between 1 and 10 Pa s for the mixtures with final viscosities approaching 1 × 10⁷ Pa s after illumination. The initial rise in viscosity was analyzed using an exponential model with an exponent ranging from 1.0 to 2.5 with time under exposure. Higher conversion rates were observed with both higher intensity and lower HDDMA content. The analytical approach taken here could aid in developing more sophisticated models that consider simultaneous flow and cure advancement in other thermosets. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

一种PN码自适应捕获门限的改进算法

文献[1]提出了一种用于直扩系统的PN码自适应门限算法。但该文献也指出,此算法对门限总数十分敏感。当门限总数设置不当时,系统的平均捕获时间将显著增加。这限制了该算法在实际中的应用。本文就此提出了改进,给出了算法及电路框图。仿真结果表明,与原方案相比,改进算法改善了对门限总数的敏感性,降低了PN码平均捕获时间。     

最大重迭对称性分子轨道和分子几何参数计算

建立了AMl级别的最大重迭对称性分子轨道计算方案(MOSMO)。采用通常的半经验分子轨道方法AMl级别中完全相同的参数，计算了各种分子的几何参数等。所得计算结果与实验值及HF／6-31G*从头算方法计算结果相符，说明提出的计算方案是可行的。同时，由于提出的计算方案过程简单，更易推广使用到从头算方法难以解决的大分子体系和超分子体系的结构和性质研究。

蒸发冷凝法中气体压强和蒸发温度对粒子大小的影响

在Ｎ＿２气氛中，用蒸发冷凝法，制备了Ｓｎ细微粒和Ｆｅ及Ｆｅ－４７（ｗｔ）％Ｎｉ合金超细微粒。分别用ＳＥＭ和ＴＥＭ，直接观测粒子大小及其分布。结果表明，平均粒径不是随Ｎ＿２气压强增加单调上升，而是在某一压强Ｐ＿（ｍａｘ）下，出现最大值。随蒸发温度提高，Ｐ＿（ｍａｘ）值迅速增大。粒子大小及其分布与粒子生长机制密切相关。对粒子凝聚生长条件进行了简要讨论。

KINEMATIC VISCOSITY-TEMPERATURE BEHAVIOR OF HEAVY TBP-FRACTIONS (455°C+) OF ARABIAN CRUDE OILS

A generalized kinematic viscosity-temperature correlation for undefined liquid heavy petroleum fractions has been developed to represent the data for a wide range of temperature from 100°C to 200°C. The correlation is based on the experimental kinematic viscosity data of true boiling point fractions of four Arabian crude oils. The characterization property required for estimation is 50% boiling point. The proposed correlation fits the experimental data with an overall absolute error of 6.1%. Experimental measurements of kinematic viscosity of heavy true boiling point fractions of Arabian crude oils were also obtained in order to develop the proposed correlation.     

助模板剂对MCM—41分子筛孔结构和性能的影响

在硅酸钠－硫酸铝－十六烷基三甲基氯化铵－水体系中，加入不同类型，如正庚烷、三甲基苯和十二胺的有机助模板剂（简称助剂）进行ＭＣＭ－４１分子筛的合成试验，并用ＸＲＤ、ＩＲ及Ｎ２吸附等方法考察了助剂对ＭＣＭ－４１分子筛孔径、热稳定性及酸性的影响。结果表明，十二胺助剂对ＭＣＭ－４１分子筛的孔径影响最大，但热稳定性较差，相比之下，三甲基苯助剂合成的ＭＣＭ－４１分子筛具有孔径大、热稳定性好和酸性特征较好的特点。
