Degradation mechanism of polystyrene sulfonic acid membrane and application of its composite membranes in fuel cells

The lifetime behavior of a H-2/O-2 proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell with polystyrene sulfonic acid (PSSA) membrane have been investigated in order to give an insight into the degradation mechanism of the PSSA membrane. The distribution of sulfur concentration in the cross section of the PSSA membrane was measured by energy dispersive analysis of X-ray, and the chemical composition of the PSSA membrane was characterized by infrared spectroscopy before and after the lifetime experiment. The degradation mechanism of the PSSA membrane is postulated as: the oxygen reduction at the cathode proceeds through some peroxide intermediates during the fuel cell operation, and these intermediates have strong oxidative ability and may chemically attack the tertiary hydrogen at the a carbon of the PSSA; the degradation of the PSSA membrane mainly takes place at the cathode side of the cell, and the loss of the aromatic rings and the SO3- groups simultaneously occurs from the PSSA membrane. A new kind of the PSSA-Nafion composite membrane, where the Nafion membrane is bonded with the PSSA membrane and located at the cathode of the cell, was designed to prevent oxidation degradation of the PSSA membrane in fuel cells. The performances of fuel cells with PSSA-Nafion101 and PSSA-recast Nafion composite membranes are demonstrated to be stable after 835 h and 240 h, respectively.

DCA、CCA和DCCA三种排序方法在中国草地植被群落中的应用现状

排序是用来分析植被与环境之间生态关系的重要手段。该文主要是对除趋势对应分析(DCA)、典范对应分析(CCA)和除趋势典范对应分析(DCCA)这三种排序方法进行总结,讨论它们在中国草地植被群落研究中的应用现状,并得出除趋势对应分析与聚类分析结合使用效果比较好,主要是用来揭示群落之间的关系,并且在实际的应用中也比较多,而典范对应分析和除趋势典范对应分析在揭示种与环境关系方面具有明显的优势,但是由于某些条件的限制,在实际研究中应用的比较少。可见这几种排序方法在实际应用中具有一定的优势,所以应该加强这方面的应用,更加深入的研究草地植被群落,以期对草地生态学及草地植被群落生态关系的研究工作发挥重要的借鉴作用。

应用GIS及RS进行白河林业局森林火险区划(英文)

利用综合遥感以及地理信系统技术以长白山区的白河林业局为例对森林火险区划作了研究。白河林业局2000年9月份的LandsatTM影像被用来提取有关植被、道路、农田、居民地信息图层,这些图层被转化为矢量文件并与白河林业局数字林相图叠加,并使用空间属性进行联结,以得到每个小班的植被类型、小班与道路、农田、居民地之间的距离。按照一定标准在ARCGIS软件中进行划分等级,得到白河林业局植被类型火险等级图、小班距离道路、农田、居民地远近火险等级图以及每个小班的植被类型火险等级、小班距离道路、农田、居民地远近火险等级。白河林业局数字高程模型(DEM)被用来提取有关地形信息(坡度、坡向、海拔高度)图层,这些图层按照一定标准进行划分,得到白河林业局基于坡度、坡向、海拔高度火险等级图层。这些图层同样被转化为矢量文件与数字林相图叠加以得到每个小班的坡度、坡向、海拔高度火险等级。最后综合这些图层,赋予每个因子权重,计算每个小班的森林火险等级值,并利用ARCGIS软件中的自然断点分类功能进行划分等级,得到白河林业局的森林火险区划图。利用白河林业局1998-2001年的林火数据进行验证,可以看出在这段时间内发生的林火基本都落在火险等级较高的5、4、3火险区内。由此说明这种森林火险区划方法效果较好。图9表2参32。

Structural characterization and identification of dibenzocyclooctadiene lignans in Fructus Schisandrae using electrospray ionization ion trap multiple-stage tandem mass spectrometry and electrospray ionization Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance multiple-stage tandem mass spectrometry

The electrospray ionization ion trap multiple-stage tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MSn) and electrospray ionization Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance multiple-stage tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-FT-ICR-MSn) have been applied successfully to the direct investigation of a number of dibenzocyclooctadiene lignan constituents from the methanol extracts of the Fructus Schisandrae in the positive ion mode. The detailed structural characterization of the same skeleton and different peripheral substituents had been studied and the precise elemental compositions of ions at high mass resolution had been obtained. So the fragmentation mechanisms could be clarified.

Crystallization behavior of poly(epsilon-caprolactone) in poly(epsilon-caprolactone) and poly(vinyl methyl ether) mixtures

The morphological development and crystallization behavior of poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PCL) in miscible mixtures of PCL and poly(vinyl methyl ether) (PVME) were investigated by optical microscopy as a function of the mixture composition and crystallization temperature. The results indicated that the degree of crystallinity of PCL was independent of the mixture composition upon melt crystallization because the glass-transition temperatures of the mixtures were much lower than the crystallization temperature of PCL. The radii of the PCL spherulites increased linearly with time at crystallization temperatures ranging from 42 to 49 degrees C. The isothermal growth rates of PCL spherulites decreased with the amount of the amorphous PVME components in the mixtures. Accounting for the miscibility of PCL/PVME mixtures, the radial growth rates of PCL spherulites were well described by a kinetic equation involving the Flory-Huggins interaction parameter and the free energy for the nuclei formation in such a way that the theoretical calculations were in good agreement with the experimental data. From the analysis of the equilibrium melting point depression, the interaction energy density of the PVME/PCL system was calculated to be -3.95 J/cm(3).

Luminescence properties of sol-gel derived spherical SiO2@Gd-2(WO4)(3): Eu3+ particles with core-shell structure

Monodisperse, core-shell structured SiO2@Gd-2(WO4)(3):Eu3+ particles were prepared by the sol-gel method. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, photoluminescence (PL) and low-voltage cathodoluntinescence (CL). PL and CL study revealed that the core-shell structured SiO2@Gd-2(WO4)(3):Eu3+ particles show strong red emission dominated by the D-5(0)-F-7(2) transition of Eu3+ at 615 nm with a lifetime of 0.89 ins. The PL and CL emission intensity can be tuned by the coating number of Gd-2(WO4)(3):Eu3+ phosphor layers on SiO2 particles, the size of the SiO2 core particles, and by accelerating voltage and the filament current, respectively.

Citrate-gel synthesis and luminescent properties of ZnGa2O4 doped with Mn2+ and EU3+

By using inorganic salts as raw materials and citric acid as complexing agent, spinel oxide ZnGa2O4 and Mn2+, Eu3+-doped ZnGa2O4 phosphor powders were prepared by a citrate-gel process. X-ray diffraction (XRD), TG-DTA, FT-IR. and luminescence excitation and emission spectra were used to characterize the resulting products. The results of XRD reveal that the powders begin to crystallize at 500 degreesC and pure ZnGa2O4 phase is obtained at 700 degreesC, which agrees well with the results of TG-DTA and FT-IR. In the crystalline ZnGa2O4, the Eu shows its characteristic red (615 nm, D-5(0)-F-7(2)) emission with a quenching concentration of 5 mol% (of Ga3+), and the Mn shows green emission (505 nm, T, A,) with a quenching concentration of 0.1 mol% (of Zn2+). The luminescence mechanism of ZnGa2O4:Mn2+/Eu3+ is presented.

Synthesis and characterization of novel bipolar PPV-based copolymer containing triazole and carbazole units

Two new blue light-emitting PPV-based conjugated copolymers containing both an electron-withdrawing unit (triazole-TAZ) and electron-rich moieties (carbazole-CAR and bicarbazole-BCAR) were prepared by Wittig condensation polymerization between the triazole diphosphonium salt and the corresponding dialdehyde monomers. Their structures and properties were characterized by FT-IR, TGA, DSC, UV-Vis, PL spectroscopy and electrochemical measurements. The resulting copolymers are soluble in common organic solvents and thermally stable with a T-g of 147degreesC for TAZ-CAR-PPV and of 157degreesC for TAZ-BCAR-PPV. The maximum photoluminescence wavelengths of TAZ-CAR-PPV and TAZ-BCAR-PPV film appear at 460 nm and 480 nm, respectively. Cyclic voltammetry measurement demonstrates that TAZ-BCAR-PPV has good electrochemical reversibility, while TAZ-CAR-PPV exhibits the irreversible redox process. The triazole unit was found to be an effective pi-conjugation interrupter and can play the rigid spacer role in determining the emission colour of the resulting copolymer.
