The results show that 38 volatile chemical components of RPR are determined, accounting for 95.21% of total contents of volatile chemical components of RPR. The main volatile chemical components of RPR are (Z, Z)-9,12-octadecadienoic acid, n-hexadecanoic acid, 2-hydroxy- benzaldehyde, 1-(2-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)-ethanone, 6,6-dimethyl-bicyclo[3.1.1] heptane-2-methanol, 4,7-dimethyl-benzofuran, 4-(1-methylethenyl)-1-cyclohexene-1-carboxaldehyde, and cyclohexadecane.展开更多

Herein we report the fabrication of a series of amorphous NiFeB nanoparticles with varying atomic ratios of Fe to (Ni + Fe) (XFe) by a facile chemical-reduction method. The amorphous NiFeB (XFe=0.20) nanoparticles, combining the merits of in situ formation of borate-enriched NiFeOOH catalytic surface layers, intrinsic amorphous nanostructures, and an optimized degree of Fe doping, displayed highly active electrocatalytic performance towards the OER in a broad range of pH values (from alkaline to neutral conditions). The catalyst exhibited a relatively low overpotential of 216 mV with a Tafel slope of 40 mWdec on Ni foam and 251 mV with a Tafel slope of 43 mV/dec on glassy carbon at 10 mA/cm2 in a 1 M KOH solution, demonstrating much greater OER efficiency than that of commercial RuO2. Long-term stability testing of the OER performance of NiFeB (XFe = 0.20) by chronoamperometry (overpotential (η) = 320 mV) over 200 h revealed no evidence of degradation. Facile, scalable synthesis and highly active water oxidation make the NiFeB nanoparticles very attractive for OER electrocatalysis.展开更多

Moreover, some quantitative sufficient conditions for the state of the system at time t to remain ε-uniformly approximately in the n-th eigenstate of H(t) up to a multiplicative phase factor are established. Lastly, our results are illustrated by a spin-half particle in a rotating magnetic field.展开更多

In this study, mesoporous Ni1-xFexOy (0 〈 x 〈 1, 1 〈y 〈 1.5) nanorods were synthesized by the facile thermal decomposition of Ni-Fe-based coordination polymers. These polymers passed their nanorod-like morphology to oxides, which served as active catalysts for oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Increasing the Fe-doping amount to 33 at.% decreased the particle size and charge-transfer resistance and increased the surface area, resulting in a reduced overpotential (-302 mV) at 10 mA/cm^2 and a reduced Tafel slope (-42 mV/dec), which were accompanied by a far improved OER activity compared with those of commercial RuO2 and IrO2 electrocatalysts. At Fe-doping concentrations higher than 33 at.%, the trend of the electrocatalytic parameters started to reverse. The shift in the dopant concentration of Fe was further reflected in the structural transformation from a NiO (〈33 at.% Fe) rock-salt structure to a biphasic NiO/NiFe204 (33 at.% Fe) heterostructure, a NiFe204 (66 at.% Fe) spinel structure, and eventually to α-fe203 (100 at.% Fe). The efficient water-oxidation activity is ascribed to the highly mesoporous one-dimensional nanostructure, large surface area, and optimal amounts of the dopant Fe. The merits of abundance in the Earth, scalable synthesis, and highly efficient electrocatalytic activity make mesoporous Ni-Fe binary oxides promising oxygen-evolving catalysts for water splitting.展开更多

The resolution result showed that 47 compounds were involved in this sample. Eighteen of them were interesting PAHs and/or their derivatives. The result agreed very well with the one obtained by capillary column GGMS. The resolved UV-visible spectra match well with the standards. With the help of HELP method, accurate quantitative results were also obtained for all the overlapping peaks. The separation ability of chromatography is greatly enhanced by chemometric methods. The HELP method provides a completely new way for quick and accurate analysis of the two-dimensional data produced by hyphenated chromatographic instruments.展开更多

Using the iterative technique,the uniform boundedness of solution is established. In addition, the spatial-temporal risk index R0(ρ) depending on the domain evolution rate ρ(t) as well as its analytical properties are discussed. The monotonicity of R0(ρ)with respect to the diffusion coefficients of the infected dI, the spontaneous infection rate η(ρ(t)y) and interval length L is investigated under appropriate conditions. Further, the existence and asymptotic behavior of periodic endemic equilibria are explored by upper and lower solution method. Finally, some numerical simulations are presented to illustrate our analytical results. Our results provide valuable information for disease control and prevention.展开更多
