The influence of reaction conditions and the metal and acid sites of catalysts on the catalytic performance of catalyst in hydrogenation and selective ring opening of tetralin, 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene（THN）, was studied. It was found that the optimal reaction conditions were at a temperature of 280 °C, hydrogen pressure of 4 MPa, liquid hourly space velocity of 2 h^-1 and H2/THN ratio of 750. Under these optimal conditions, a high conversion of almost 100% was achieved on the 0.3 Pt/USY catalyst. XRD patterns and TEM images revealed that Pt particles were highly dispersed on the USY, favorable to the hydrogenation reaction of tetralin. Ammonia temperature-programmed desorption and Py-IR results indicated that the introduction of Pt can reduce the acid sites of USY, particularly the strong acid sites of USY. Thus, the hydrocracking reaction can be suppressed.展开更多

This study focuses on the discrepancy of regioselective ring-opening of two terminal epoxides during the copolymerization with CO2. It was found that the nucleophilic ring-opening of styrene oxide occurred predominantly at the methine C a--O bond due to the election delocalization of phenyl group to stabilize the transition state for the methine C--O bond cleavage.展开更多

Selective maintenance is performed on systems with limited break time to improve the success of the next mission. In general, the duration of the mission is stochastic. However, existing studies rarely take into account system availability and the repairpersons with different skill levels. To solve this problem, a new multi-mission selective maintenance and repairpersons assignment model with stochastic duration of the mission are developed. To maximize the minimum phase-mission reliability while meeting the minimum system availability, the model is transformed into an optimization problem subject to limited maintenance resources. The optimization is then realized using an analytical method based on a self-programming function and a Monte Carlo simulation method, respectively. Finally, the validity of the model and solution method approaches are verified by numerical arithmetic examples. Comparative and sensitivity analyses are made to provide proven recommendations for decision-makers.展开更多

文摘The mainstream silver recovery has problems such as resource waste,weak silver selectivity,and complicated operation.Here,self-propelled magnetic enhanced capture hydrogel(magnetic NbFeB/MXene/GO,MNMGH)was prepared by self-crosslinking encapsulation method.MNMGH achieved high selectivity(K_(d)=23.31 mL/g)in the acidic range,and exhibited ultrahigh silver recovery capacity(1604.8 mg/g),which greatly improved by 66%with the assistance of in-situ magnetic field.The recovered silver crystals could be directly physically exfoliated,without acid/base additions.The selective sieving effect of adsorption,MNMGH preferentially adsorbed Ag(I),and then selectively reduced to Ag(0),realizing dual-selective recovery.The in-situ magnetic field enhanced selective adsorption by enhancing mass transfer,reactivity of oxygen-containing functional groups.Furthermore,density function theory simulations demonstrated that the in-situ magnetic field could lower the silver reduction reaction energy barrier to enhance the selective reduction.Three-drive synergy system(reduction drive,adsorption drive and magnetic drive)achieved ultrahigh silver recovery performance.This study pioneered an in-situ magnetic field assisted enhancement strategy for dual-selective(adsorption/reduction)recovery of precious metal silver,which provided new idea for low-carbon recovery of noble metal from industrial waste liquids.
文摘This paper investigates the selective maintenance o systems that perform multi-mission in succession. Selective maintenance is performed on systems with limited break time to improve the success of the next mission. In general, the duration of the mission is stochastic. However, existing studies rarely take into account system availability and the repairpersons with different skill levels. To solve this problem, a new multi-mission selective maintenance and repairpersons assignment model with stochastic duration of the mission are developed. To maximize the minimum phase-mission reliability while meeting the minimum system availability, the model is transformed into an optimization problem subject to limited maintenance resources. The optimization is then realized using an analytical method based on a self-programming function and a Monte Carlo simulation method, respectively. Finally, the validity of the model and solution method approaches are verified by numerical arithmetic examples. Comparative and sensitivity analyses are made to provide proven recommendations for decision-makers.
文摘BACKGROUND Traumatic brain injury(TBI)poses a considerable risk to human health.After TBI,individuals are susceptible to a range of psychiatric disorders,with depression being a primary complication.Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors(SSRIs)are frequently used in the treatment of depression;however,their efficacy in addressing major depressive disorder(MDD)in adults following TBI remains uncertain.AIM To investigate the efficacy of SSRIs in the treatment of MDD after TBI.METHODS A comprehensive search across multiple databases was conducted following the guidelines outlined in the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses statement,encompassing studies published until May 2024.This review focused on studies that examined the efficacy of SSRIs in the treatment of MDD following TBI.Studies were assessed based sample size,treatment duration,treatment methodologies,severity of brain injury,assessment techniques,and drug response.A random-effects model was used to derive the summary effect size.RESULTS Eight studies compared the reduction in depression scores in patients with MDD after TBI and SSRI treatment.The eight studies did not exhibit heterogeneity(I^(2)=38%).The depression score for MDD after TBI in the SSRI group decreased more than that in the control group[odds ratio(OR)1.68,95%CI:1.09-2.58,P=0.02].The adverse reactions after treatment included diarrhea,dizziness,dry mouth,nausea,or vomiting.There was no difference in the incidence of adverse reactions after treatment between the two groups(OR 1.16,95%CI:0.78-1.73,P=0.46).These studies did not show significant heterogeneity(I^(2)=44%).CONCLUSION SSRIs may be effective in treating patients with MDD after TBI.Adequately powered,randomized,controlled trials are required to confirm these findings.
文摘Selective laser melting(SLM)is a cost-effective 3 D metal additive manufacturing(AM)process.However,AM 316 L stainless steel(SS)has different surface and microstructure properties as compared to conventional ones.Boriding process is one of the ways to modify and increase the surface properties.The aim of this study is to predict and understand the growth kinetic of iron boride layers on AM 316 L SS.In this study,the growth kinetic mechanism was evaluated for AM 316 L SS.Pack boriding was applied at 850,900 and 950℃,each for 2,4 and 6 h.The thickness of the boride layers ranged from(1.8±0.3)μm to(27.7±2.2)μm.A diffusion model based on error function solutions in Fick’s second law was proposed to quantitatively predict and elucidate the growth rate of FeB and Fe_(2)B phase layers.The activation energy(Q)values for boron diffusion in FeB layer,Fe_(2)B layer,and dual FeB+Fe_(2)B layer were found to be 256.56,161.61 and 209.014 kJ/mol,respectively,which were higher than the conventional 316 L SS.The findings might provide and open new directions and approaches for applications of additively manufactured steels.

文摘Radiative cooling fabric creates a thermally comfortable environment without energy input,providing a sustainable approach to personal thermal management.However,most currently reported fabrics mainly focus on outdoor cooling,ignoring to achieve simultaneous cooling both indoors and outdoors,thereby weakening the overall cooling performance.Herein,a full-scale structure fabric with selective emission properties is constructed for simultaneous indoor and outdoor cooling.The fabric achieves 94%reflectance performance in the sunlight band(0.3–2.5μm)and 6%in the mid-infrared band(2.5–25μm),effectively minimizing heat absorption and radiation release obstruction.It also demonstrates 81%radiative emission performance in the atmospheric window band(8–13μm)and 25%radiative transmission performance in the mid-infrared band(2.5–25μm),providing 60 and 26 W m−2 net cooling power outdoors and indoors.In practical applications,the fabric achieves excellent indoor and outdoor human cooling,with temperatures 1.4–5.5℃ lower than typical polydimethylsiloxane film.This work proposes a novel design for the advanced radiative cooling fabric,offering significant potential to realize sustainable personal thermal management.

文摘A wide passband frequency selective surface(FSS)is proposed using a five-layer stacked structure.The proposed structure applies four layers of dielectric plates and five layers of metal patches to provide a passband and exhibits more stable frequency responses and lower insertion loss under wide-angle oblique incidence compared with the typical three-layer metal-dielectric structure.According to the simulation results,the proposed FSS can achieve a passband range of 1.7-2.7 GHz with an insertion loss of less than 0.5 d B and a relative bandwidth of 44.1%,and it can preserve stable transmission characteristics with the incident angle ranging from 0°to 45°.

文摘In clinical settings,tantalum(Ta)is extensively implemented as a bone implant material.Ta is highly stable and biocompatible in vivo,being one of the metallic biomaterials having high affinity for bone tissue.However,since Ta is a refractory metal,its application as bone implant material is limited.Most recently,additive manufacturing technology has introduced a novel approach to producing Ta implants.The present study compared the microstructure,surface and mechanical characteristics,and in vitro and in vivo biological characteristics of selective laser melted Ta(SLM Ta),selective laser melted titanium alloy Ti6Al4V with Ta coating(SLM Ti6Al4V with Ta coating),and selective laser melted Ti6Al4V(SLM Ti6Al4V).Results indicate that SLM Ta possesses superior mechanical characteristics contrasted with SLM Ti6Al4V and SLM Ti6Al4V with Ta coating.Furthermore,SLM Ta has anti-inflammatory activity,excellent osseointegration performance,and osteogenic bioactivity.We fabricated an SLM porous Ta bone plate and employed it for internal fixation of ulnar and radius fractures,which has been known to promote fracture healing.Further,the SLM porous Ta bone plate could form an integrated bone plate structure with the bone tissue at the implant site.Afterward,the porous structure of the plate minimizes its elastic modulus and eliminates stress shielding,leaving no need for further surgical removal.In conclusion,the SLM porous Ta bone plate meets the performance requirements(stimulating bone regeneration,non-stress shelter,and no need for second surgery)of an ideal bone plate and may revolutionize the field of internal fixation bone plates for fractures.

文摘The corrosion resistance and antibacterial properties of Ti−3Cu alloy prepared by selective laser melting were evaluated using electrochemical experiments and a variety of antibacterial characterization.It is found that the charge transfer resistance of Ti−3Cu alloy was 4.89×10^(5)Ω∙cm^(2),which was doubled the data obtained by CP-Ti alloy.The antibacterial rates of Ti−3Cu alloy against S.mutans and P.gingivalis were 45.0%and 54.5%.And the antibacterial rates increased with the prolongation of cultivation time,reaching up to 62.8%and 68.6%,respectively.The in-situ nano Ti_(2)Cu precipitates were homogeneously distributed in the matrix of the Ti−3Cu alloy,which was the key reason of increasing the corrosion resistance.Additionally,the microscale electric fields between theα-Ti matrix and the Ti_(2)Cu was responsible for the enhancement of the antibacterial properties.
文摘Selective reduction of N_(2)O by CO under excess O_(2) was effectively catalyzed by Fe(0.9 wt%)-exchangedβzeolite(Fe0.9β)in the temperature range of 250–500°C.Kinetic experiments showed that the apparent activation energy for N_(2)O reduction with CO was lower than that for the direct N_(2)O decomposition,and the rate of N_(2)O reduction with CO at 300℃ was 16 times higher than that for direct N_(2)O decomposition.Reaction order analyses showed that CO and N_(2)O were involved in the kinetically important step,while O_(2) was not involved in the important step.At 300℃,the rate of CO oxidation with 0.1%N_(2)O was two times higher than that of CO oxidation with 10%O_(2).This quantitatively demonstrates the preferential oxidation of CO by N_(2)O under excess O_(2) over Fe0.9β.Operando/in-situ diffuse reflectance ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy showed a redox-based catalytic cycle;α-Fe-O species are reduced by CO to give CO_(2) and reduced Fe species,which are then re-oxidized by N_(2)O to regenerate theα-Fe-O species.The initial rate for the regeneration ofα-Fe-O species under 0.1%N_(2)O was four times higher than that under 10%O_(2).This result shows quantitative evidence on the higher reactivity of N_(2)O than O_(2) for the regeneration ofα-Fe-O intermediates,providing a fundamental reason why the Fe0.9βcatalyst selectively promotes the CO+N_(2)O reaction under excess O_(2) rather than the undesired side reaction of CO+O_(2).The mechanistic model was verified by the results of in-situ Fe K-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy.

文摘Selective hydrogenation of furfural to furfuryl alcohol is a great challenge in the hydrogenation field due to thermodynamic preference for hydrogenation of C=C over C=O.Herein,a novel Al_(2)O_(3)/C-u hybrid catalyst,composed of N-modified dendritic carbon networks supporting Al_(2)O_(3)nanoparticles,was successfully prepared via carbonizing the freeze-dried gel from spontaneous cross-linking of alginate,Al3+and urea.The obtained carbon-supported Al_(2)O_(3)hybrid catalyst has a high ratio (31%) of Al species in pentahedral-coordinated state.The introduction of urea enhances the surface N content,the ratio of pyrrolic N,and specific surface area of catalyst,leading to improved adsorption capacity of C=O and the accessibility of active sites.In the furfural hydrogenation reaction with isopropyl alcohol as hydrogen donor,Al_(2)O_(3)/C-u catalyst achieved a 90%conversion of furfural with 98.0% selectivity to furfuryl alcohol,outperforming that of commercial γ-Al_(2)O_(3).Moreover,Al_(2)O_(3)/C-u demonstrates excellent catalytic stability in the recycling tests attributed to the synergistic effect of abundant weak Lewis acid sites and the anchoring effect of the carbon network on Al_(2)O_(3)nanoparticles.This work provides an innovative and facile strategy for fabrication of carbon-supported Al_(2)O_(3)hybrid catalysts with rich AlVspecies,serving as a high selective hydrogenation catalyst through MPV reaction route.

文摘BACKGROUND Hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)has become a growing health concern globally.Microvascular invasion and high tumor burden are key factors limiting the curative effect of selective internal radiation therapy(SIRT).CASE SUMMARY This case study reports a 49-year-old woman who was diagnosed with China Liver Cancer Staging(CNLC)IIIa HCC and>15 cm tumor diameter.Initially,due to insufficient future liver remnant and vascular invasion,the tumor was unresectable;however,radical hepatectomy was performed after successful conversion therapy with SIRT using yttrium-90(90Y)resin microspheres followed by hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy(HAIC)with tyrosine kinase inhibitor(TKI)and anti-programmed death-1(PD-1)antibody.SIRT using 90Y resin microspheres was given by the right hepatic artery and chemoembolization was simultaneously performed in the tumor’s feeding vessels from the right diaphragmatic artery.HAIC was followed every three weeks with lenvatinib and tislelizumab.At 4 months post-SIRT,the tumor was downstaged to CNLC Ib and the patient successfully underwent hepatectomy.The histopathological examination of the resected specimen showed extensive necrosis.CONCLUSION This case study provides evidence for an integrated treatment strategy combining SIRT and HAIC with TKI and anti-PD-1 antibodies for patients with large HCC and microvascular invasion.Further confirmatory trials are required in the future.

文摘Al−3.51Mg−0.42Mn−0.76Sc−0.40Zr(wt.%)alloy was prepared by selective laser melting(SLM)method.The mechanical properties and microstructure of the alloy after annealing at 300℃or 325℃for 6 h were studied.The tensile strength,yield strength and elongation of the SLM alloy were 339 MPa,213 MPa and 24%,respectively.After annealing at 300℃for 6 h,the tensile and yield strength of the alloy were increased to 518 MPa and 505 MPa,respectively,and the elongation decreased to 13%.After annealing at 325℃for 6 h,the yield strength of the alloy was reduced to 483 MPa.The grain size of the alloy after annealing at 300℃and 325℃did not grow significantly,but the segregation of Mg element was significantly reduced.Nanoscale Al3(Sc,Zr)phase was precipitated from the alloy matrix,and its average size increased with the increase of annealing temperature.Therefore,the strength improvement of the annealed SLM aluminum alloy was mainly attributed to the precipitation strengthening of Al3(Sc,Zr),and the strengthening mechanism was mainly dislocation cutting mechanism.When the annealing temperature was too high,the coarsening of Al3(Sc,Zr)particles caused the strength to decrease.

文摘Despite the extraordinary success has been achieved in metal catalyst-promoted stereoselective ring-opening polymerization（ROP） of rac-lactide（rac-LA）, well-controlled stereoselective rac-LA ROP by organic catalyst still remains a scientific challenge. Here we report our investigations into organocatalytic stereoselective ROP of rac-LA by utilizing novel bulky chiral and achiral N-heterocyclic carbenes（NHC）, 1,3-bis-（1′-naphthylethyl）imidazolin-2-ylidene. The effect of polymerization conditions（e.g. solvent, temperature, alcohol initiator） on ROP behavior by these bulky NHCs has been fully studied, leading to the formation of isotactic-rich stereoblock polylactide（Pi = 0.81） under optimized conditions with high activity（Conv. = 98% in 30 min） and narrow molecular weight dispersity（D = 1.05）.
