Enhanced Proton Conduction in Polymer Electrolyte Membranes as Synthesized by Polymerization of Protic Ionic Liquid-Based Microemulsions

Proton-conducting membranes were prepared by polymerization of microemulsions consisting of surfactant-stabilized protic ionic liquid (PIL) nanodomains dispersed in a polymerizable oil, a mixture of styrene and acrylonitrile. The obtained PIL-based polymer composite membranes are transparent and flexible even though the resulting vinyl polymers are immiscible with PIL cores. This type of composite membranes have quite a good thermal stability, chemical stability, tunability, and good mechanical properties. Under nonhumidifying conditions, PIL-based membranes show a conductivity up to the order of 1 x 10(-1) S/cm at 160 degrees C, due to the well-connected PIL nanochannels preserved in the membrane. This type of polymer conducting membranes have potential application in high-temperature polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells.

Phase diagrams for the MOVPE growth of ZnTe and ZnSeTe

The phase diagrams for the MOVPE growth of ZnTe and ZnSeTe have been proposed for the first time, based on the thermodynamic equilibrium established at the solid-vapor interface, The regions for the single condensed phase of ZnTe(s) and of ZnSeTe(s) have been investigated, respectively, Additionally, the growth conditions of appearance for the double condensed phase of ZnTe(s) + Zn(s or l) and ZnTe(s)+ Te(s or l) for the ZnTe system, of ZnSeTe(s) + Zn(s or l) and ZnSeTe(s)+ Te(s or l) for the ZnSeTe system are discussed.

Nuclear shape-phase diagrams

Ground-state energy functions of even-even and odd-A nuclei are derived from simple parameter-dependent Interacting Boson Model (IBM) and Interacting Boson-Fermion Model (IBFM) Hamiltonians. Exact nuclear shape-phase diagrams in the two-parameter (eta, chi) plane are explicitly described using the energy functions on the basis of the condition of phase equilibrium.

Prediction of soil organic carbon partition coefficients by soil column liquid chromatography

To avoid the limitation of the widely used prediction methods of soil organic carbon partition coefficients (K-OC) from hydrophobic parameters, e.g., the n-octanol/water partition coefficients (K-OW) and the reversed phase high performance liquid chromatographic (RP-HPLC) retention factors, the soil column liquid chromatographic (SCLC) method was developed for K-OC prediction. The real soils were used as the packing materials of RP-HPLC columns, and the correlations between the retention factors of organic compounds on soil columns (k(soil)) and K-OC measured by batch equilibrium method were studied. Good correlations were achieved between k(soil) and K-OC for three types of soils with different properties. All the square of the correlation coefficients (R-2) of the linear regression between log k(soi) and log K-OC were higher than 0.89 with standard deviations of less than 0.21. In addition, the prediction of K-OC from K-OW and the RP-HPLC retention factors on cyanopropyl (CN) stationary phase (k(CN)) was comparatively evaluated for the three types of soils. The results show that the prediction of K-OC from k(CN) and K-OW is only applicable to some specific types of soils. The results obtained in the present study proved that the SCLC method is appropriate for the K-OC prediction for different types of soils, however the applicability of using hydrophobic parameters to predict K-OC largely depends on the properties of soil concerned.

Oxidative activation of light alkanes on dense ionic oxygen conducting membranes

The oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane to ethylene (ODHE) has been studied in a catalytic membrane reactor (CMR) using a dense mixed ionic oxygen and electronic conducting perovskite membrane Ba0.5Sr0.5Co0.8Fe0.2O3-&. At 1080K, an ethylene yield of 66% was obtained with the bare membrane. After Pd cluster deposition, the ethylene yield reached 76% at 1050K. Ni cluster deposition led to a decrease of ethane conversion compared to the bare membrane without changing ethylene selectivity.
