Effect of solution properties on nanofibrous structure of electrospun poly(lactic‐co‐glycolic acid)

Electrospinning of poly(lactic‐co‐glycolic acid) (PLGA) in chloroform or 1,1,1,3,3,3‐hexafluoro‐2‐propanol (HFIP) was investigated, focusing on its solution parameters, to develop nonwoven biodegradable nanofibrous structures for tissue engineering. PLGA nanofibers were obtained by electrospinning of 15 wt % PLGA solution and the resulting average fiber diameters were varied with the range of 270–760 nm, depending on solution property. When small amounts of benzyl triethylammonium chloride (BTEAC) was added to the PLGA/chloroform solution, the average diameter was decreased from 760 to 450 nm and the fibers were densely amounted in a straight shape. In addition, the average fiber diameter (270 nm) of nanofibers electrospun from polar HFIP solvent was much smaller than that (760 nm) of nanofibers electrospun from nonpolar chloroform solvent. Therefore, it could be concluded that conductivity or dielectric constant of the PLGA solution was a major parameter affecting the morphology and diameter of the electrospun PLGA fibers. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Electrical double layer characteristics of nanoporous carbon derived from titanium carbide

Electrochemical parameters of the nanoporous carbide-derived carbon|organic electrolyte have been studied by cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The gas adsorption measurements have been used for evaluating the specific surface area, pore size distribution and porosity as the essential parameters influencing the double layer performance of carbon. The region of ideal polarizability, values of series and parallel resistance, capacitance and other important electrical double layer parameters were established. It was shown that specific capacitance of typical nanoporous carbon derived from titanium carbide is in the range of 70-90 F cm⁻³ or 100-130 F g⁻¹ and it depends on the synthesis conditions. The influence of the electrolyte solvent to the capacitance was insignificant, although acetonitrile was advantageous with respect of smaller viscosity.     

Structure, thermal-stability and reducibility of Si-doped Ce–Zr–O solid solution

The Si-doped Ce–Zr–O solid solutions have been prepared by the reverse microemulsion method. The effects of Si and its content on the structure characters, thermal-stability and reducibility of the Ce–Zr–O solid solution have been studied by N₂ adsorption, XRD, laser Raman (LR), TPR, FT-IR, NMR and XPS methods. The results indicate that, there are the bonds of Si–O–M (Ce or Zr) in the Ce–Zr–Si–O solid solutions, and the presence of Si can increase obviously the surface area, thermal-stability, crystal lattice distortion rate, and reducibility of the solid solution. The surface area of the sample with 20 wt.% Si reaches 153 m² g⁻¹ after being calcined at 900 °C for 6 h. The Ce–Zr–O solid solution with 5.2–10 wt.% Si shows excellent thermal-stability and reducibility.

Thermodynamic assessment of MCl–YCl3 (M=Na,K, Rb,Cs) systems

Thermodynamic properties and phase diagrams of the MCl–YCl₃ (M=Na, K, Rb, Cs) systems were reassessed by using the CALPHAD method with the latest phase diagram data. A two-sublattice ionic solution model (M⁺)_P(Cl⁻, ${\mathrm{YCL}}_6^{3-}$, YCl₃)_Q reflecting the ionic behavior of the components was adopted to describe the liquid phase in the systems. A new set of optimized model parameters was found, and the calculated phase diagrams and enthalpies of mixing have good agreement with experimental data. The calculated liquidus near to YCl₃ side agrees much better with experimental data compared with previous work. In consideration of high and low temperature modifications as well as stability of intermediate compounds, Gibbs energies of formation of these compounds evaluated in the present work are more reasonable.

TiO2加入量对富铝尖晶石烧结性能的影响

以α-Al2O3、分析纯的MgO及分析纯的TiO2为原料,研究了在1400℃、1500℃、1600℃保温3 h下,TiO2加入量(分别为0、1%、2%、4%)对Al2O3与MgO物质的量比为21的富铝尖晶石烧结性能的影响,并利用XRD进行物相组成分析,利用SEM和EDAX进行显微结构分析.结果表明由于TiO2与MgAl2O4的固溶作用,加入TiO2可显著改善富铝尖晶石的烧结性能;随着TiO2加入量的增加,试样的体积密度增加,显气孔率降低,特别是在1600℃烧结后的试样尤为显著.

Nonlinear multiobjective model-predictive control scheme for wastewater treatment process

A nonlinear multiobjective model-predictive control (NMMPC) scheme, consisting of self-organizing radial basis function (SORBF) neural network prediction and multiobjective gradient optimization, is proposed for wastewater treatment process (WWTP) in this paper. The proposed NMMPC comprises a SORBF neural network identifier and a multiple objectives controller via the multi-gradient method (MGM). The SORBF neural network with concurrent structure and parameter learning is developed as a model identifier for approximating on-line the states of WWTP. Then, this NMMPC optimizes the multiple objectives under different operating functions, where all the objectives are minimized simultaneously. The solution of optimal control is based on the MGM which can shorten the solution time. Moreover, the stability and control performance of the closed-loop control system are well studied. Numerical simulations reveal that the proposed control strategy gives satisfactory tracking and disturbance rejection performance for WWTP. Experimental results show the efficacy of the proposed method.
