Transparent electrode with a nanostructured coating.

Using single-walled nanotubes as an example, we fabricated transparent conductive coatings and demonstrated a new technique of centrifuge coating as a potential low-waste, solution-based batch process for the fabrication of nanostructured coatings. A theoretical model is developed to account for the sheet resistance exhibited by layered random-network coatings such as nanofilaments and graphene. The model equation is analytical and compact, and allows the correlation of very different scaling regimes reported in the literature to the underlying coating microstructure. Finally, we also show a refined experimental setup to systematically measure the curvature-dependent sheet resistance.

Pressure and thermal effects on elastic properties of single crystal alpha-Al2O3 from Monte-Carlo simulation

A rectangular structural unit cell of a-Al2O3 is generated from its hexagonal one. For the rectangular structural crystal with a simple interatomic potential [Matsui, Mineral Mag. 58A, 571 (1994)], the relations of lattice constants to homogeneous pressure and temperature are calculated by using Monte-Carlo method at temperature 298K and 0 GPa, respectively. Both numerical results agree with experimental ones fairly well. By comparing pair distribution function, the crystal structure of a-Al2O3 has no phase transition in the range of systematic parameters. Based on the potential model, pressure dependence of isothermal bulk moduli is predicted. Under variation of general strains, which include of external and internal strains, elastic constants of a-Al2O3 in the different homogeneous load are determined. Along with increase of pressure, axial elastic constants increase appreciably, but nonaxial elastic constants are slowly changed.

Estudio de la factibilidad de aplicación, a escala planta piloto, del catalizador Cr2O3/Al2O3 en la reducción de emisión de SO2 a la atmósfera, proveniente de fuentes fijas : avances 2013

Resumen: Se planificaron las experiencias con el objeto de analizar el comportamiento del catalizador en la columna metálica de mayor diámetro. Se modificaron las masas usadas para verificar la eficiencia de retención respecto de la masa. Se realizaron ciclos de adsorción, desorción y readsorción sobre una misma muestra para determinar variaciones en la eficiencia del catalizador. En otra fase, en colaboración con el Dr. V. A. Ranea y el Dr. E. E. Mola (INIFTA, UNLP), se desarrolló el estudio teórico de la adsorción de moléculas de SO2, CH4, CO2, O2 y CO sobre Cr2O3(0001) mediante Teoría del Funcional Densidad (programa VASP, Vienna Ab-initio Simulation Package), y el estudio de la cinética de la reacción entre CH4, SO2 y el O2 junto con la presencia de especies sulfito y sulfato. Este estudio permitió hallar los sitios preferenciales de adsorción de S0 y la posible competencia con SO2 experimentalmente y por cálculos teóricos. Experimentalmente, se observa que la eficiencia de adsorción del catalizador respecto al SO2 es cercana al 100%. Se observa un pico de termodesorción a 1120 K. Luego, se estudió la oxidación de CH4 con SO2. Se observa que hay producción de CO2 desde temperatura inicial, seguida de un aumento significativo en la formación de CO2 hasta 330-340 K. Luego, la producción de CO2 se mantiene aproximadamente constante. Mediante el empleo de la ecuación de Arrhenius y resultados experimentales, se obtuvo la energía de activación de la reacción global, de 7 Kcal/mol. Mediante estudios teóricos, se determinó que la energía de quimisorción del SO2 sobre el Cr2O3 es de -3.09 eV para la configuración más estable, una energía de adsorción de O2 en estado disociativo de -1.567 eV, una energía para CH4 sobre O2 adsorbido previamente de -0.335 eV, y -0.812 eV para la configuración más estable de CO2 sobre el sustrato.

A constitutive description of the inelastic response of ceramics

The objective of the article is to present a unified model for the dynamic mechanical response of ceramics under compressive stress states. The model incorporates three principal deformation mechanisms: (i) lattice plasticity due to dislocation glide or twinning; (ii) microcrack extension; and (iii) granular flow of densely packed comminuted particles. In addition to analytical descriptions of each mechanism, prescriptions are provided for their implementation into a finite element code as well as schemes for mechanism transitions. The utility of the code in addressing issues pertaining to deep penetration is demonstrated through a series of calculations of dynamic cavity expansion in an infinite medium. The results reveal two limiting behavioral regimes, dictated largely by the ratio of the cavity pressure p to the material yield strength σY. At low values of p/σY, cavity expansion occurs by lattice plasticity and hence its rate diminishes with increasing σY. In contrast, at high values, expansion occurs by microcracking followed by granular plasticity and is therefore independent of σY. In the intermediate regime, the cavity expansion rate is governed by the interplay between microcracking and lattice plasticity. That is, when lattice plasticity is activated ahead of the expanding cavity, the stress triaxiality decreases (toward more negative values) which, in turn, reduces the propensity for microcracking and the rate of granular flow. The implications for penetration resistance to high-velocity projectiles are discussed. Finally, the constitutive model is used to simulate the quasi-static and dynamic indentation response of a typical engineering ceramic (alumina) and the results compared to experimental measurements. Some of the pertinent observations are shown to be captured by the present model whereas others require alternative approaches (such as those based on fracture mechanics) for complete characterization. © 2011 The American Ceramic Society.

Kinetics of the chemical looping oxidation of H2 by a co-precipitated mixture of CuO and Al2O3

Chemical-looping combustion (CLC) has the inherent property of separating CO2 from flue gases. Instead of air, it uses an oxygen-carrier, usually in the form of a metal oxide, to provide oxygen for combustion. When used for the combustion of gaseous fuels, such as natural gas, or synthesis gas from the gasification of coal, the technique gives a stream of CO2 which, on an industrial scale, would be sufficiently pure for geological sequestration. An important issue is the form of the metal oxide, since it must retain its reactivity through many cycles of complete reduction and oxidation. Here, we report on the rates of oxidation of one constituent of synthesis gas, H2, by co-precipitated mixtures of CuO+Al2O3 using a laboratory-scale fluidised bed. To minimise the influence of external mass transfer, and also of errors in the measurement of [H2], particles sized to 355-500μm were used at low [H2], with the temperature ranging from 450 to 900°C. Under such conditions, the reaction was slow enough for meaningful measurements of the intrinsic kinetics to be made. The reaction was found to be first order with respect to H2. Above ∼800°C, the reaction of CuO was fast and conformed to the shrinking core mechanism, proceeding via the intermediate, Cu2O, in: 2CuO+H2→Cu2O+H2O, ΔH1073 K0=- 116.8 kJ/mol; Cu2O+H2→2Cu+H2O, ΔH1073 K0-80.9 kJ/mol. After oxidation of the products Cu and Cu2O back to CuO, the kinetics in subsequent cycles of chemical looping oxidation of H2 could be approximated by those in the first. Interestingly, the carrier was found to react at temperatures as low as 300°C. The influence of the number of cycles of reduction and oxidation is explored. Comparisons are drawn with previous work using reduction by CO. Finally, these results indicate that the kinetics of reaction of the oxygen carrier with gasifier synthesis gases is very much faster than rates of gasification of the original fuel. © 2010 The Institution of Chemical Engineers.
