Pyrolysis of peat: Product yield and characterization

Pyrolysis of peat obtained from Yeniça?a, Bolu, Turkey was conducted in a fixed-bed tube furnace under various conditions, and variations in the structure of the char, tar and gas products were examined. The chars produced were studied by proximate and ultimate analyses. The maximum tar yield of 20.41% was obtained at a heating rate of 20 °C/min, a temperature of 450 °C, a sweeping gas flow rate of 100 ml/min and a 0.5–2.0 mm size range. The chemical composition of the tar was examined by elemental analysis, FTIR spectroscopy, ¹H-NMR spectroscopy and column chromatography. The chemical composition of the tar with dense aliphatic structure was established to be CH_1.22O_0.25N_0.02. The composition of the gases obtained at a heating rate of 20 °C/min for the 0.5–2.0 mm size range was examined by gas chromatography.     

基于粒子群三次样条优化的图像边缘描述算法

针对手工选点生成的三次样条曲线无法准确地描述图像边缘的问题,以粒子群三次参数样条曲线优化算法为基础对现有的图像边缘算法进行了改进。在图像边缘上取若干点作为样条曲线的型值点,利用粒子群算法对这些型值点进行优化,使得到的样条曲线对图像边缘有很好的贴合。实验表明,该算法不仅能够快速拟合样条曲线,而且优化后的样条曲线形态能较好地贴合图像边缘轮廓。

On the relationship between pore structure and chloride diffusivity from accelerated chloride migration test in cement-based materials

In this study the electrochemical technique is applied to accelerate chloride ion migration in concrete to determine the chloride ions in anode cell, and the pore characteristic of the same mortars in concrete was obtained from the mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP). The plain ordinary Portland cement and the constant aggregate with eight w/c ratios ranging from 0.3 to 0.65 were used. A good linear relationship between the steady-state migration coefficient and non-steady-state migration coefficient based on the same experimental setup and specimens was obtained. Both of the steady-state migration coefficient and non-steady-state migration coefficient were linearly related to the capillary pore volume and the critical pore diameter.

Elastohydrodynamic theory for wet oblique collisions

This paper presents a model for oblique collisions of spherical particles with a plane surface covered with a thin liquid layer. Elastohydrodynamic theory developed previously for fully immersed collisions [Davis, Serayssol and Hinch 1986 JFM 63 479-497] is modified for the normal component of motion to account for the finite thickness of the liquid layer. The resulting time evolution of the film thickness profile is then used along with sliding lubrication to determine the tangential component of motion. The critical Stokes number (dimensionless ratio of particle inertia and viscous forces), below which no rebound is seen, is predicted in terms of the physical properties of the materials involved in the collision, as described by a compliance parameter representing a dimensionless measure of elastic deformation due to viscous forces. Beyond the critical Stokes number, the normal restitution coefficient is found to increase with the Stokes number and the compliance parameter, asymptoting to the dry restitution coefficient at high Stokes numbers. The lubrication suction resistance during rebound is limited by cavitation. The tangential restitution is independent of the impact angle and is linearly dependent on the ratio of the fluid layer thickness to the sphere radius, in addition to depending on the Stokes number and compliance parameter. The tangential restitution is found to be close to unity and is generally higher for a larger value of the compliance parameter. Moreover, the tangential restitution is seen to increase with the Stokes number at small compliance and decrease with the Stokes number at large compliance. The change in rotational velocity exhibits trends that are the reverse of the tangential restitution. Finally, closed-form expressions have been developed for describing the restitution coefficients and dimensionless change in rotational velocity.     

Study of siloxane additives migration to the surface of polyester-(melamine)-polyurethane coatings: Aging effects after ethanol cleaning

This study determines the influences of siloxane flow agents’ migration on the outermost surface composition of clearcoats, before and after ethanol cleaning. This evaluation is undertaken to improve adhesion of pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs) on automotive paint systems. Most of the siloxane flow agents segregate from the bulk to the clearcoat outermost surface during curing. These additives can cover until 50% of the surface area but X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and time of flight-secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) analyses indicate that they can be removed by ethanol cleaning. Composition of the cleaned clearcoats surfaces are similar as the composition of clearcoat formulated without siloxane additives: the polyester-(melamine)-polyurethane network is more detected than before cleaning. However, outermost surface analyses show that several aging weeks increase the siloxane additives segregation. This post-cleaning migration modifies the clearcoat surface composition and cancels the chemical modifications due to the ethanol cleaning. XPS analyses show that silicon concentrations after cleaning and aging are inversely proportional to the initial silicon concentrations measured after curing. It highlights that aging has to be controlled to improve adhesion of PSAs on clearcoats. A second ethanol cleaning on aged clearcoats is not effective to remove these new siloxane additives. Their formulation should be different from the flow agents and it could modify their solubility in ethanol. This result could also indicate that these new siloxane additives are not located on the last molecular layer of surface and they would not be soluble in ethanol.
