The isothermal cold crystallization of poly(ethylene naphthalene-2,6-dicarboxylate) was investigated by simultaneous small and wide angle X-ray scattering and dielectric spectroscopy (DS). By this experimental approach, simultaneously collected information was obtained about the specific changes occurring in both crystalline and amorphous phases during crystallization, namely about the chain ordering through wide angle X-ray scattering, about the lamellar crystals arrangement by means of small angle X-ray scattering, and about the amorphous phase evolution by means of DS. The results indicate that average mobility of the amorphous phase suffers a discontinuous decrease upon passing from the primary to the secondary crystallization regime. We interpret these results assuming that the restriction to the mobility of the amorphous phase occurs mainly in the amorphous regions between the lamellar stacks and not in the amorphous regions within the lamellar stacks. 相似文献
Unstable and low-abundance protein complexes represent a large family of transient protein complexes that are difficult to characterize, even by means of high-resolution NMR spectroscopy. A method to assign the NMR signals of these unstable complexes through a combination of selective isotope labeling of amino acids in a protein and site-specific labeling the protein with a paramagnetic tag is presented herein. By using this method, the resonances of unstable thioester intermediate complex (lifetime <5 h and highest concentration ≈20 μm ) generated by Staphylococcus aureus sortase A and its peptide substrate under a real-time reaction have been assigned. 相似文献
The optical property and phase transition of ZrV2O7 were investigated by temperature-dependent X-ray diffraction, photoluminescence (PL), and Raman spectra. It was found that the material exhibited PL emission in the visible region. The temperature-dependent PL emission showed that the peak energy for emission (at red wavelength) presented a red shift from 10 to 80 K, and then a blue shift with the increase in temperature. The PL emission bands of ZrV2O7 shifted with change in temperature relating to its phase transition (80-100 K), which could be confirmed by temperature-dependent Raman spectra. 相似文献
Catalysts prepared as bulk VSb0.1Ox and supported V2O5/Al2O3, V2O5-Sb2O3/Al2O3 and Sb2O3/Al2O3 (containing 0.5, 1 or 2 theoretical monolayers of V2O5 or Sb2O3) were tested in the oxidative dehydrogenation of iso-butane at 550°C in i-C4H10:O2:He=20:10:70 gas mixture. Fresh and used catalysts were characterised by BET, XRD and XPS. Reactivity and thermochemistry of active oxygen taking part in the redox cycle with ethane and hydrogene were studied using in situ differential scanning calorimetry. Temperature-programmed desorption of O2 in He flow was also investigated and in situ DRIFT was applied to investigate surface species of the catalysts in flows of i-C4H10, O2 and i-C4H10/O2 mixture. Supported VSbyOx catalysts are more active and selective than bulk one. V-only supported catalysts display a high efficiency due to the high reactivity of VOX-species. In bulk catalyst, the surface is enriched with antimony. In supported samples, the surfaces V/Sb are close to the calculated ones. In the presence of antimony, the amount of active oxygen species and their reactivity in redox transformation is improved. The rates of vanadium reduction and reoxidation are also higher. Compared to V-only catalysts, supported V-Sb-catalysts display a lower coking activity and higher on-stream stability. 相似文献
Fe-ZSM-5 zeolites comprise of three types (I, II and III) of iron (Fe3+) sites in both as synthesized (AS) and heat-treated states. Previous evidence could be confirmed by the assignment of ESR lines, registered in the X-band, stating: (i) type I framework Fe3+ sites (in Th oxygen coordination), where charge compensation occurs mainly by Na+ ions and the crystal field (cf) approximates cubic symmetry, produce resonances at near to g = 2.00; (ii) type II and probably type III binuclear Fe...Fe dioxo- and oxo-bridges manifest themselves in producing slightly distorted surroundings of axial symmetry, and the relevant powder-averaged subspectrum is superimposed on the previous one in the g 2.45–1.98 interval. As the temperature of the heat-treatment (HT) is raised, type II and III sites will be annihilated with preference, under concomitant production of amorphous Fe2O3 possessing molecular dispersity. (iii) The weak ESR signal (2–4%) at g 4.27 is attributed to Th coordinated framework sites in the surface layers (≈ 1 u.c. thick) under the influence of solid surface tension, giving rise to fully rhombic cf symmetry.
The size of the ejected Fe2O3 particles, as estimated from Mössbauer spectra (no hyperfine structure at 77 K) is less than 2.9 nm. The extremely large electron affinity of Fe3+ ions manifests itself in decreased ionicity (and unexpectedly dominant cubic symmetry), activity in biomimetic oxidations, autoreduction and spontaneous reoxidation etc.
In the liquid phase oxidation by hydrogen peroxide of n-hexane and cyclohexane the heat-treated Ti-ZSM-5 samples exhibited both activity- and selectivity dependence on HT. On the basis of experiences drawn from the heat-treatments proposal is made for the structures of the defect site (producing the 960 cm−1 IR signal) and the active centre of selective oxidation. The proposal seems to be in accord with the experimental observations (isotopic exchange, MAS-NMR behaviour etc.) published so far. 相似文献
The synthesis of forsterite-based ceramic nanopowders using sol–gel method assisted by further thermal treatment has been performed. X-ray diffraction and SEM analysis of the obtained nanopowders are presented. Detailed impedance spectroscopy study of the forsterite nanoceramics doped with Cr3+, Y3+ and Zr4+ ions has been carried out. Impedance spectra are interpreted in terms of equivalent circuits. Peculiarities of the electrical properties for each of the materials under study are discussed. 相似文献
This work reports on the microstructural and high-temperature impedance spectroscopy study of a family of dielectric ceramics Ba6MNb9O30 (M=Ga, Sc, In) of tetragonal tungsten bronze (TTB) structure with relaxor properties. For Ba6GaNb9O30 and Ba6InNb9O30 pellets, the SEM images have revealed good, dense internal microstructures, with well-bonded grains and only discrete porosity; in contrast Ba6ScNb9O30 pellets had a poorer microstructure, with many small and poorly-bonded grains gathered in agglomerates, resulting in significant continuous porosity and poorly defined grain boundary regions. The electroactive regions were characterised by the bulk and grain boundaries capacitances and resistances, while their contribution to the electrical conduction process was estimated by determining activation energies from the temperature (Arrhenius) dependence of both electric conductivities and time constants. For Ga and In analogues the electronic conductivity are dominated by the bulk response, while for Sc analogue, the poorly defined grain boundaries give a bulk-like response, mixing with the main bulk contribution. 相似文献
