Microstructures of deformed 7055 alloy were investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The dependence of peak stress on deformation temperature and strain rate can be expressed by the hyperbolic-sine type equation. The hot deformation activation energy of the alloy is 146 kJ/mol. Moreover, the flow stress curves predicted by the modified constitutive equations are reasonably consistent with the experimental results, which confirms that the proposed deformation constitutive equations can provide evidence for the selection of hot forming parameters. TEM results indicate that dy- namic recovery is the main softening mechanism during hot deformation.展开更多

However, the adsorption rate and loading capacity of such adsorbents should be further improved due to the economic viability consider- ation. In this paper, polyvinyl alcohol functionalized with amidoxime (PVA-g-AO) has been prepared as a new adsorbent for uranium (VI) adsorption from aqueous solution. The physicochemical properties of PVA-g-AO were investigated using infra- red spectroscopy (IR), scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Results showed that the ligand monomers were successfully grafted onto the matrixes. The XRD and XPS analysis showed that uranium was adsorbed in metal ionic form rather than in crystal form. Uranyl (U (VI)) adsorption properties onto PVA-g-AO were evaluated. The adsorption of U (VI) by PVA-g-AO was fast, with an equilibrium time of less than 50 rnin. Additionally the maximum adsorption capacity reached 42.84 mg/g at pH 4.0.展开更多

MPTP was not stopped until the animals showed typical PD motor symptoms on days 10 to 13 after MPTP administration when the Kurlan score reached 10; this abrogated the dif- ferences in individual susceptibility to MPTP. The clinical symptoms persisted, peaking on days 3 to 12 after MPTP withdrawal (rapid progress stage), and then the Kurlan score plateaued. A Kurlan score at the end of the rapid progress stage 〉15 reflected stable or slowly-progressive PD, while a score 〈15 indicated spontaneous recovery. The entire clinical evolution and outcome of the systemic PD model was characterized in this study, thus providing options for therapeutic and translational research.展开更多
