Rheology of Cellulose/Alginic Acid Blends with 1-Allyl-3-Methylimidazolium Chloride as Solvent

In this study, cellulose/alginic acid blend solutions were prepared with 1-allyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride as solvent. The effect of cellulose/alginic acid blend ratios on the rheological properties was studied. It was found that the viscosity and dynamic modulus decreased with the increase of alginic acid ratio. And the calculated viscosity values, which were obtained from the log-additivity rule, are less than the experimental viscosity values. This may be caused by the hydrogen bonding interaction between cellulose and alginic acid, which is beneficial to the miscibility of the blends. In order to prove the rheological result, cellulose/calcium alginate films were prepared from the solution, the hydrogen bonding between cellulose and alginate were investigated, which was related to the good miscibility of the blend solutions.

多分量数据全波形反演在气藏检测中的关键问题——以苏里格气田为例

苏里格气田是中国典型的致密砂岩气藏，构造简单、平缓，横向非均质性强，有效储层与围岩声学特征差别小，地震响应不明显，常规地震监测方法预测难度大，但气田含气砂岩泊松比低，是地震气藏检测的有效参数。利用弹性全波形反演精度高和能处理复杂非均质介质的优势，反演地层拉梅常数、剪切模量和密度，并计算泊松比，从而进行气藏预测。重点阐述了苏里格气田多分量数据全波形反演初始模型建模、先验模型建模和地震数据预处理3个关键问题的处理方法。二维三分量数据反演和"甜点"预测结果表明：①对于具有强非均质性的苏里格气田，利用全波形反演获得精度较高的地层弹性参数能显著提高气藏预测的准确度；②苏里格地区构造简单、平缓，利用常规叠加速度并结合构造解释可以建立比较好的初始模型，从而有效地解决了周波跳跃和局部极小的难题；③先验知识的约束和地震数据的预处理是全波形反演成功应用于苏里格气田气藏检测的关键。     

Triphenylphosphonium (TPP)-Based Antioxidants: A New Perspective on Antioxidant Design

Mitochondrial oxidative damage and dysfunction contribute to a wide range of human diseases. Considering the limitation of conventional antioxidants and that mitochondria are the main source of reactive oxygen species (ROS) which induce oxidative damage, mitochondria-targeted antioxidants which can selectively block mitochondrial oxidative damage and prevent various types of cell death have been widely developed. As a lipophilic cation, triphenylphosphonium (TPP) has been commonly used in designing mitochondria-targeted antioxidants. Conjugated with the TPP moiety, antioxidants can achieve more than 1000-fold higher mitochondrial concentration depending on cell membrane potentials and mitochondrial membrane potentials. Herein we discuss the deficiencies of conventional antioxidants and the advantages of mitochondrial targeting, and review various types of TPP-based mitochondria-targeted antioxidants. These provide theoretical and background support for the design of new anti-oxidant.

Visible-light-enhanced catalytic hydrolysis of ammonia borane using RuP2 quantum dots supported by graphitic carbon nitride

Hydrolytic dehydrogenation of ammonia borane (AB) driven by efficient catalysts has attracted considerable attention and is regarded as a promising strategy for hydrogen generation. Herein, RuP₂ quantum dots supported on graphitic carbon nitride (g-C₃N₄) were successfully prepared by in-situ phosphorization, yielding a highly efficient photocatalyst toward AB hydrolysis. The catalysts were characterized by field-emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction, x-ray photoelectron microscopy, inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy, UV–visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy and photoluminescence spectroscopy. A conventional water-displacement method was employed to record the hydrogen volume as a function of reaction time. Owing to visible-light irradiation, the initial turnover frequency of the AB hydrolysis was significantly enhanced by 110% (i.e., 134 min^?1) at room temperature. Furthermore, the apparent activation energy decreased from 67.7 ± 0.9 to 47.6 ± 1.0 kJ mol^?1. The photocatalytic hydrolysis mechanism and catalyst reusability were also investigated.
