Low-temperature synthesis of SiC nanowires with Ni catalyst

SiC nano wires were fabricated on the silicon substrate dipped with a layer of Ni catalyst at 900 ℃ by gas pressure annealing processing. The morphologies and crystal structures were determined by scanning electron microscopy(SEM), transmission electron microscopy(TEM)and X-ray diffraction(XRD). The results show that the assynthesized nanowires are β-SiC single crystalline with diameter range of 50-100 nm, and length of tens of micron by directly annealing at 900 ℃. The SiC nano wires grow along the [111] direction with highly uniform morphology. And the possible growth mechanism of SiC nano wires is proposed.The present work provides an efficient strategy for the production of high-quality SiC nano wires.     

机械力化学制备锡酸锌及其在PVC中的阻燃应用

以二氧化锡（SnO₂）和氧化锌（ZnO）为原料,通过机械力化学湿法球磨,制备了锡酸锌（ZS）,再与水滑石按一定比例研磨得到锡酸锌改性的水滑石（ZS/HT）。通过扫描电子显微镜、X射线衍射、透射电子显微镜对合成的ZS与ZS/HT做了表征。将制得的ZS/HT应用于PVC制得阻燃PVC样品,当加入10%（ZS与水滑石的质量比）ZS/HT时材料的极限氧指数比纯PVC样品高3.5%,同时材料的力学性能有所增加。热重分析结果表明,ZS/HT的加入促使PVC提前分解成炭,有效提高PVC材料的残炭量。     

A New NTRU-Type Public-Key Cryptosystem over the Binary Field

As the development of cloud computing and the convenience of wireless sensor netowrks, smart devices are widely used in daily life, but the security issues of the smart devices have not been well resolved. In this paper, we present a new NTRU-type public-key cryptosystem over the binary field. Specifically, the security of our scheme relies on the computational intractability of an unbalanced sparse polynomial ratio problem (DUSPR). Through theoretical analysis, we prove the correctness of our proposed cryptosystem. Furthermore, we implement our scheme using the NTL library, and conduct a group of experiments to evaluate the capabilities and consuming time of encryption and decryption. Our experiments result demonstrates that the NTRU-type public-key cryptosystem over the binary field is relatively practical and effective.     

In‐plane shear damage behaviours of 2D needled C/SiC composites

Understanding the in‐plane shear behaviour of composites is essential to establish the design basis for practical applications. This study aims to investigate the shear damage behaviours of 2D needled C/SiC composites by various characterization techniques. The effect of layer arrangement on shear modulus and strength was discussed via shear stress‐strain responses. The shear strain field evolution and uniformity variation were studied by digital image correlation. It shows that the uniformity of shear strain field changes with the shear load, and the shear strain field evolution consist of 5 stages. The electrical resistivity measurement results indicate that structural deformation and damage evolution caused the electrical resistivity change. Furthermore, the damage evolution has a double effect on the electrical resistivity variation. The acoustic emission monitoring shows that the shear damage evolution is a 3‐stage nonlinear process before failure. The shear damages were categorized via acoustic characteristics. Besides, the postfailure behaviours were also discussed in this study.     

Electrocatalytic activity of LaSr3Fe3O10 and LaSr3Fe3O10-GO towards oxygen reduction reaction in alkaline medium

Oxygen reduction reaction(ORR) plays a critical role in many energy conversion and storage processes.Therein, a comparative study of the electrocatalytic activity for ORR in 0.1 mol/L KOH solution was conducted using layered perovskite-like LaSr_3 Fe_3 O_(10) and LaSr3 Fe_3 O_(10)-graphene oxide(GO) composite as electrodes. Linear sweep voltammetry(LSV) results show that the LaSr3 Fe_3 O_(10)-GO hybrid exhibits higher current density, a more positive onset potential(-0.15 V vs. Hg/HgO) in comparison with LaSr_3 Fe_3 O_(10).The value of the overall transferred electrons for both catalysts implies a dominant two electron process for ORR. Both catalysts under alkalic conditions exhibit a two-step Tafel slope, suggesting a change in the reaction mechanism for ORR. The composite electrode exhibits a higher ORR current density, but inferior durability performances in relative to the LaSr_3 Fe_3 O_(10) electrode.     

露天采场高陡边坡下深部采空区的爆破处理研究

鞍本地区是我国最大的BIF型铁矿集中分布区,其铁矿资源量/储量约占全国总量的1/4,但由于日伪时期的掠夺式开采和矿业整合开发前的无序开发利用,在一定深度空间内遗留了大量隐伏采空区,为后期实现规模化露天开采带来极大的安全隐患,成为制约露天铁矿资源安全高效开采的难题。以弓长岭露天铁矿大砬子采区高陡边坡下的深部采空区为研究对象,利用LS_DYNA软件进行采空区的安全爆破模拟研究,结合现场深部采空区爆破参数试验结果,提出了采用孔中起爆处理采空区的方法,具体参数设置为空区预留顶板厚度3 m,孔间延期时间42 ms,排间延期时间75 ms,平均炸药单耗0.237 kg/t。在上述分析的基础上,针对大砬子露天采场高陡边坡内的深部不规则多层采空区提出了分层、分区安全爆破处理的技术方案,且空区边界用切割爆破方法处理,爆破处理效果良好,采空区得到了安全有效治理。
