Experiments were conducted under non-isothermal condition in a nitrogen atmosphere at the heating rate of 10, 20, 30 and 40 ℃/min, respectively. TG curves showed that, in the temperature range of 25 to 600 ℃, the stability of the resin systems could be enhanced by increasing the length of the aliphatic chain in the initiator. Both the Kissinger method and the Ozawa-Flyrm-Wall method were employed to calculate activation energies of the decomposition reaction, and the values obtained from the two methods were compared. Moreover, the corresponding reaction mechanism was identified by the Achar differential method and the Coats- Redfem integral method. The experimental results showed that these four methods were reliable and effective to study the kinetics of the thermal decomposition reaction; and the most probable thermal decomposition mechanism of the resin systems we proposed was found to comply with Mampel power law （m=1）.展开更多

Owing to the rigid anthracene skeleton, syn-L and anti-L successfully locked two Al centers in close proximity（syn-Al2） and far apart（anti-Al2）, respectively. The distance between two Al centers in syn-Al2 was defined by X-ray diffraction as 6.665 ？, which is far shorter than that in anti-Al2. In the presence of stoichiometrical Bn OH, syn-Al2 and anti-Al2 were both efficient for ring-opening polymerization（ROP） of rac-LA with the former being more active. In the presence of excess Bn OH, syn-Al2 showed an efficient and immortal feature, consistent with high conversions, matched Mns, narrow molecular weight distributions and end group fidelity, while anti-Al2 had a much lower activity or even became entirely inactive due to rapid decomposition, indicated by in situ ～1H-NMR experiments of Al complexes with Bn OH.展开更多

The isolated complexes were well-characterized by ^1H-NMR, ^13C-NMR and elemental analysis. The binuclear nature of aluminum complex 2b was further confirmed by an X-ray diffraction study. All complexes 2a–4g could efficiently initiate the ring-opening polymerization（ROP） of ε-caprolactone in toluene. The substituents at the aromatic rings and the linker unit in the auxiliary ligands exerted significant influence on the catalytic behavior of the investigated aluminum complexes. Complex 4g（R^1 = R^2 = Cl） containing propylenyl bridging unit exhibited the highest catalytic activity among these complexes, which might be attributed to the increased electrophilicity of the metal center as well as more opened coordination sphere. The molecular weights of obtained poly（ε-caprolactone）s deviating considerably from the theoretical values indicated that the ROP of ε-caprolactone by complexes 2a–4g was not well-controlled, which was also judged from the broad molecular weight distributions（MWD = 1.47-2.47） of produced poly（ε-caprolactone）s. These complexes proved to be inactive toward the polymerization of rac-lactide alone. In the presence of alcohol the polymerization occurred, which was actually initiated by the decomposition species of the aluminum complex upon the treatment with isopropanol.展开更多

In this study, benzoate and salicylate were employed as the model organic ligands and aluminum hydroxide as the metal hydroxide. The attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared （ATR-FTIR） spectra revealed that the ligands benzoate and salicylate do coordinate directly with the surface of hydrous aluminum hydroxide, thereby forming innersphere surface complexes. It is concluded that when the initial pH is acidic or neutral, monodentate and bridging complexes are to be formed between benzoate and aluminum hydroxide while bridging complexes predominate when the initial pH is alkalic. Monodentate and bridging complexes can be formed at pH 5 while precipitate and bridging complexes are formed at pH 7 when salicylate anions are adsorbed on aluminum hydroxide. The X-ray photoelectron （XP） spectra demonstrated the variation of C 1 s binding energy in the salicyate and phenolic groups before and after adsorption. It implied that the benzoate ligands are adsorbed through the complexation between carboxylate moieties and the aluminum hydroxide surface, while both carboxylate group and phenolic group are involved in the complexation reaction when salicylate is adsorbed onto aluminum hydroxide. The information offered by the XPS confirmed the findings obtained with ATR-FTIR.展开更多

This review summarizes the crystal structures of alkali and alkaline earth aluminum hydrides and correlates structure properties with physical and chemical properties of the hydride compounds. The crystal structures of the alkali metal aluminum hydrides change significantly during the stepwise dehydrogenation. The general pathway follows a transformation of structures built of isolated [AlH4]- tetrahedra to structures built of isolated [Al H6]3- octahedra.The crystal structure relations in the group of alkaline earth metal aluminum hydrides are much more complicated than those of the alkali metal aluminum hydrides. The structures of the alkaline earth metal aluminum hydrides consist of isolated tetrahedra but the intermediate structures exhibit chains of cornershared octahedra. The coordination numbers within the alkali metal group increase with cation sizes which goes along with an increase of the decomposition temperatures of the primary hydrides. Alkaline earth metal hydrides have higher coordination numbers but decompose at slightly lower temperatures than their alkali metal counterparts. The decomposition pathways of alkaline metal aluminum hydrides have not been studied in all cases and require future research.展开更多

The effect of fluoride ions on the growth of bioleaching microorganisms has been extensively emphasized. In this study, HF is found to be the toxic form of fluoride that affects the bacterial activity under acidic conditions. The added aluminum could compete with H^+ to complex with F-, thus significantly decrease the concentration of HF and finally reduce the toxicity of fluoride to bacteria. When F^-/Al^(3+)concentration ratio is 0.5:1.0, Fe^(2+) oxidation rate could reach 0.167 g·L^(-1)·h^(-1), close to that of the biotic control group(0.195 g·L^(-1)·h^(-1)). The competitive complexation mechanism of fluoride by AlF_n^(3-n) results in stability constants of AlF_n^(3-n) complex(7.00) that are larger than those of HF(3.18). The F^-/Al^(3+) concentration ratio in the medium could affect the speciation of AlF_n^(3-n) complex.With the decrease in F^-/Al^(3+) concentration ratio, the coordination numbers of AlF_n^(3-n) decrease. Finally, the feasibility of fluoride detoxification by aluminum ion is verified. This work has meaningful implications for fluoride-containing bacterial bioleaching systems.展开更多

Low ash samples of anthracites, bituminous coals and altered coals from the Czech Republic, Russia, Ukraine, China and Australia were tested;further, low ash lignite and xylite from the Czech Republic and gagatite from Poland were analyzed. In acquired <sup>27</sup>Al MAS NMR spectra, two significant peaks at chemical shifts were recorded, at 3.5 - 4 and 13.5 - 15 ppm. It was found that the significant peak at chemical shift at 3.5 - 4 ppm in spectra of bituminous coals, lignite, gagatite and a thermally weakly altered coal corresponds to that obtained for triaquo-hydroxo-diphenoxido-Aluminum(III) complex. The existence of triaquo-triphenoxido-Aluminum(III) complex in the spec- tra of anthracites, some bituminous coals and another thermally altered coal can be approved by the chemical shift at 13.5 - 15 ppm. These findings indicate that at least two different Al complexes were identified in coal organic matter. Further it was found that these complexes are concentrated in vitrinite fraction (alicyclic-aromatic part of coal), notably in collotelinite (gelified and homogenous vitrinite constituent). Ways of Al complexes formation in coal are suggested and their thermal stability is discussed.展开更多

Reaction of ButC(O)CH2Br with Ph2PNHBut afforded [Ph2P(NHBut)CH2C(O)But]+Br-(1). Treatment of 1 with excess of NaH in THF generated ligand precursor Ph2P(CH2C(O)But)=NBut (2). Reaction of 2 with AlR3 (R = Me,Et) gave N,O-chelate aluminum complexes [R2Al{OC(But)CHP(Ph2)=NBut}] (3,R = Me; 4,R = Et). Lithiation of 2 with an equiv. of LiBun formed lithium complex [Li{OC(But)CHP(Ph2)=NBut}] (5). Reaction of the lithium complex with an equiv. of AlCl3 yielded [Cl2Al{OC(But) CHP(Ph2)=NBut}] (6). Complex 6 was also obtained by reaction of 3 with an equiv. of AlCl3. Compounds 2-6 were characterized by NMR spectroscopy,elemental analysis and single crystal X-ray diffraction techniques (for 2,3 and 6). Catalysis of complexes 3 and 4 as well as [Me2Al{1-{OC(Ph)CH}-3-R1-5-MeC3HN2}] (R1 = Me,But) toward the ring-opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone was investigated.展开更多

Methods Different dosages of aluminum-maltolate complex [Al（mal）3] were given to rats via acute intracerebroventricular （i.c.v.） injection and subchronic intraperitoneal （i.p.） injection. Following AI exposure, the hippocampal LTP were recorded by field potentiation technique in vivo and the expression of AMPAR subunit proteins （GluR1 and GluR2） in both total and membrane-enriched extracts from the CA1 area of rat hippocampus were detected by Western blot assay. Results Acute AI treatment produced dose-dependent suppression of LTP in the rat hippocampus and dose-dependent decreases of GluRz and GluR2 in membrane extracts; however, no similar changes were found in the total cell extracts, which suggests decreased trafficking of AMPA receptor subunits from intracellular pools to synaptic sites in the hippocampus. The dose-dependent suppressive effects on LTP and the expression of AMPA receptor subunits both in the membrane and in total extracts were found after subchronic AI treatment, indicating a decrease in AMPA receptor subunit trafficking from intracellular pools to synaptic sites and an additional reduction in the expression of the subunits. Conclusion Al（mal）3 obviously and dose-dependently suppressed LTP in the rat hippocampal CA1 region in vivo, and this suppression may be related to both trafficking and decreases in the expression of AMPA receptor subunit proteins. However, the mechanisms underlying these observations need further investigation.展开更多

Experimental method for determining the subsequent yield locus of sheet metal was established. With this method,the subsequent yield loci of 5754O aluminum alloy sheet were obtained under complex loading paths. Theoretical subsequent yield loci based on Yld2000-2d yield criterion and three kinds of hardening modes were calculated and compared with the experimental results. The results show that the theoretical subsequent yield loci based on mixed hardening mode describe the experimental subsequent yield loci well,whereas isotropic hardening mode,which is widely used in sheet metal forming fields,predicts values larger than the experimental results. Kinematic hardening mode predicts values smaller than the experimental results and its errors are the largest.展开更多

A timed complexatian colorimetric analysis method of Al-Fe-ferron in view of the total concentration of {AI + Fe} was then established to determine the species distribution of polymeric Al-Fe. The testing wavelength was recommended at 362 net and the testing pH value was 5. With a comparison of the ratios of n(Al)/n(Fe), the standard adsorption curves of the polymeric Al-Fe solutions were derived from the experimental results. Furthermore, the solutions' composition were carious in both the molar n(Al)/n(Fe) ratios, i.e. 0/0, 5/5, 9/1 and 0/10, and the concentrations associated with the total ( Al + Fe which ranged from 10(-5) to 10(-4) mol/L..展开更多

Experime...Two kinds of complex polysilicate coagulants-polysilicate iron PSI and polysilicate ferric aluminum PSFA were prepared. The polymerization processes of PSI and PSFA were investigated under various conditions. Experimental results show that the molecular weight(M.W.) of polysilicic acid PS and the molar ratio of Fe 3+ to SiO 2 are two of the most important factors for preparing high effective coagulants PSI and PSFA. It is shown that PSI and PSFA are not only high effective, nontoxic and cheap coagulants, but also effective for decreasing the dosage of aluminum salt. The mechanism of coagulation of PSI and PSFA is also discussed in this paper.展开更多

Experimental results show that the molecular weight(M.W.) of polysilicic acid PS and the molar ratio of Fe 3+ to SiO 2 are two of the most important factors for preparing high effective coagulants PSI and PSFA. It is shown that PSI and PSFA are not only high effective, nontoxic and cheap coagulants, but also effective for decreasing the dosage of aluminum salt. The mechanism of coagulation of PSI and PSFA is also discussed in this paper.
