The effects of nano-size nickel particles on the wear resistance and high temperature oxidation resistance of coating substrate system were investigated through oxidation kinetics experiment and wear resistance test. The morphologies of the specimens were examined by means of optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The results show that the high temperature ultra fine ceramic coating has notable protection effect on industrially pure titanium TB1-0 from oxidation. The oxidation and wear resistance properties of the coating can be effectively improved by adding nano-size nickel particles. The oxidative mass gain of the specimen decreases from 11.33 mg·cm-2 to 5.25 mg·cm-2 and the friction coefficient decreases from 1.1 to 0.6 by adding nano-size nickel particles, and the coating containing 10% （mass fraction） nano-size nickel shows the optimum properties.展开更多

Plant resistance genes （R gene） are organized complexly in genome. Some resistance gene sequence data enable an insight into R gene structure and gene evolution. Some sites like Leucine-Rich Repeat （LRR） are of specific interest since homologous recombination can happen. Crossing over, transposon insertion and excision and mutation can produce new specificity. Three models explaining R gene evolution were discussed. More information needed for dissection of R gene evolution though some step can be inferred from genetic and sequence analysis.展开更多

文摘Mesoporous carbon supports mitigate platinum(Pt)sulfonic poisoning through nanopore-confined Pt deposition,yet their morphological impacts on oxygen transport remain unclear.This study integrates carbon support morphology simulation with an enhanced agglomerate model to establish a mathematical framework elucidating pore evolution,Pt utilization,and oxygen transport in catalyst layers.Results demonstrate dominant local mass transport resistance governed by three factors:(1)active site density dictating oxygen flux;(2)ionomer film thickness defining shortest transport path;(3)ionomer-to-Pt surface area ratio modulating practical pathway length.At low ionomer-to-carbon(I/C)ratios,limited active sites elevate resistance(Factor 1 dominant).Higher I/C ratios improve the ionomer coverage but eventually thicken ionomer films,degrading transport(Factors 2–3 dominant).The results indicate that larger carbon particles result in a net increase in local transport resistance by reducing external surface area and increasing ionomer thickness.As the proportion of Pt situated in nanopores or the Pt mass fraction increases,elevated Pt density inside the nanopores exacerbates pore blockage.This leads to the increased transport resistance by reducing active sites,and increasing ionomer thickness and surface area.Lower Pt loading linearly intensifies oxygen flux resistance.The model underscores the necessity to optimize support morphology,Pt distribution,and ionomer content to prevent pore blockage while balancing catalytic activity and transport efficiency.These insights provide a systematic approach for designing high-performance mesoporous carbon catalysts.

文摘Drug resistance remains a major challenge in breast cancer chemotherapy,yet the metabolic alterations underlying this phenomenon are not fully understood.There is much evidence indicating the cellular heterogeneity among cancer cells,which exhibit varying degrees of metabolic reprogramming and thus may result in differential contributions to drug resistance.A home-built single-cell quantitative mass spectrometry(MS)platform,which integrates micromanipulation and electro-osmotic sampling,was developed to quantitatively profile the tricarboxylic acid(TCA)cycle metabolites at the single-cell level.Using this platform,the metabolic profiles of drug-sensitive MCF-7 breast cancer cells and their drug-resistant derivative MCF-7/ADR cells were compared.This results revealed a selective upregulation of downstream TCA cycle metabolites includingα-ketoglutarate,succinate,fumarate,and malate in drug-resistant cancer cells,while early TCA metabolites remained largely unchanged.Furthermore,notable variations in the abundance of the metabolites were observed in individual cells.The comparative analysis also revealed that not all MCF-7/ADR cells exhibit the same degree of metabolic deviation from the parental line in the metabolites during resistance acquisition.The observed metabolic profiles indicate enhanced glutaminolysis,altered mitochondrial electron transport chain activity,and increased metabolic flexibility in drug-resistant cancer cells that support their survival under chemotherapeutic stress.The findings further suggest the potential for incorporating cellular metabolic heterogeneity into future drug resistance studies.

文摘In recent years,the prevalence of rice sheath blight caused by Rhizoctonia solani has significantly increased in Heilongjiang Province.Chemical control has become the primary control method.To cope with this,a novel mycelium growth rate method was employed to assess the toxicity of 13 fungicides,including a combination of 45%prochloraz and 125 g·mL^(-1)epoxiconazole,against R.solani.Additionally,the resistance of 99 R.solani strains to thifluzamide across various regions was also evaluated.The findings indicated that 75%trifloxystrobin-tebuconazole exhibited the most effective inhibitory effect,with an effective inhibitory medium concentration(EC50)value of 0.0101μg·mL^(-1).The EC50 values for 20%prothioconazole,125 g·mL^(-1)epoxiconazole,24%thifluzamide,and 50%hexaconazole were all less than 10μg·mL^(-1),indicating a better inhibitory effect on R.solani.The strongest synergistic effect was noted in the mixture of prochloraz and epoxiconazole at a 1:2 ratio,resulting in an EC50 value of 2.9917μg·mL^(-1),and a co-toxicity coefficient of 213.38.Among the 34 strains from Harbin City,the average EC50 value was 196.9341μg·mL^(-1)indicating the highest susceptiblility to thifluzamide.Conversely,15 strains from Shuangyashan City exhibited an average EC50 value of 364.7323μg·mL^(-1),reflecting the lowest sensitivity to thifluzamide.The sensitivity baseline EC50 value for R.solani was 253.8854μg·mL^(-1),with an overall resistance level between 0.1567 and 3.3292,indicating that the resistance level of R.solani in Heilongjiang Province remained low.Therefore,R.solani was still sensitive to thifluzamide in most areas of Heilongjiang Province,but there was a certain risk of resistance in Qitaihe City,which needed to be continuously monitored.At the same time,this study might provide a theoretical foundation for enhancing the prevention and management of the rice sheath blight.

文摘The effects of Yb/Zr micro-alloying on the microstructure,mechanical properties,and corrosion resistance of an Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy were systematically investigated.Upon the addition of Yb/Zr to the Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy,the grain boundaries were pinned by high-density nanosized Al_(3)(Yb,Zr)precipitates during extrusion deformation,consequently,the average grain size was significantly reduced from 232.7μm to 3.2μm.This grain refinement contributed substantially to the improvement in both strength and elongation.The ultimate tensile strength,yield strength,and elongation of the Yb/Zr modified alloy increased to 705.3 MPa,677.6 MPa,and 8.7%,respectively,representing enhancements of 16.2%,19.3%,and 112.2%compared to the unmodified alloy.Moreover,the distribution of MgZn_(2)phases along grain boundaries became more discontinuous in the Yb/Zr modified alloy,which effectively retarded the propagation of intergranular corrosion and improved the corrosion resistance.

文摘Inspired by the thermal stability mechanism of thermophilic protein,which presents ionic bonds that have better stability at higher temperatures,this paper proposes the introduction of electrostatic interactions by adding carboxyl-modified silica(C-SiO2),PAA,and CaCl_(2) to achieve higher viscosity over 25℃.The rheological behavior of C-SiO_(2)-based shear thickening fluid(CS-STF)was investigated at a temperature range of 25–55℃.Unlike SiO_(2)-based STF,which exhibits single-step thickening and a negative correlation between viscosity and temperature.As the C-SiO_(2) content was 41%(w/w)and the mass ratio of PAA:CaCl_(2):C-SiO_(2) was 3:1:10,the CS-STF displayed a double-thickening behavior,and the peak viscosity reached 1330 Pa·s at 35℃.From the yarn pull-out test,the inter-yarn force was significantly increased with the increasing CS-STF content.Treating UHMWPE fabrics with CS-STF improved the impact resistance effectively.In the blunt impact test,the U-CS fabrics with high CS-STF content(121.45 wt%)experienced penetration failure under high impact energy(18 J)due to stress concentration caused by the shear thickening behavior.The knife stabbing test demonstrated that U-CS fabrics with appropriate content(88.38 wt%)have the best stabbing resistance in various impact energies.Overall,this study proposed a high-performence STF showing double-thickening and enhancing shear-thickening behavior at a wide temperature range,the composite fabrics with the performance of resisting both the blunt and stab impact had broad application prospects in the field of personal protection.

文摘This study proposes a general imperfect thermal contact model to predict the thermal contact resistance at the interface among multi-layered composite structures.Based on the Green-Lindsay(GL)thermoelastic theory,semi analytical solutions of temperature increment and displacement of multi-layered composite structures are obtained by using the Laplace transform method,upon which the effects of thermal resistance coefficient,partition coefficient,thermal conductivity ratio and heat capacity ratio on the responses are studied.The results show that the generalized imperfect thermal contact model can realistically describe the imperfect thermal contact problem.Accordingly,it may degenerate into other thermal contact models by adjusting the thermal resistance coefficient and partition coefficient.

文摘Stab-resistant textiles play a critical role in personal protection,necessitating a deeper understanding of how structural and layering factors influence their performance.The current study experimentally examines the effects of textile structure,layering,and ply orientation on the stab resistance of multi-layer textiles.Three 3D warp interlock(3DWI)structures({f1},{f2},{f3})and a 2D woven fabric({f4}),all made of high-performance p-aramid yarns,were engineered and manufactured.Multi-layer specimens were prepared and subjected to drop-weight stabbing tests following HOSBD standards.Stabbing performance metrics,including Depth of Trauma(DoT),Depth of Penetration(DoP),and trauma deformation(Ymax,Xmax),were investigated and analyzed.Statistical analyses(Two-and One-Way ANOVA)indicated that fabric type and layer number significantly impacted DoP(P<0.05),while ply orientation significantly affected DoP(P<0.05)but not DoT(P>0.05).Further detailed analysis revealed that 2D woven fabrics exhibited greater trauma deformation than 3D WIF structures.Increasing the number of layers reduced both DoP and DoT across all fabric structures,with f3 demonstrating the best performance in multi-layer configurations.Aligned ply orientations also enhanced stab resistance,underscoring the importance of alignment in dissipating impact energy.
文摘Despite numerous research investigations to understand the influences of various structural parameters,to the authors'knowledge,no research has been the effect of different angles of incidence on stab response and performance of different types of protective textiles.Three distinct structures of 3D woven textiles and 2D plain weave fabric made with similar high-performance fiber and areal density were designed and manufactured to be tested.Two samples,one composed of a single and the other of 4-panel layers,from each fabric type structure,were prepared,and tested against stabbing at[0○],[22.5○],and[45○]angle of incidence.A new stabbing experimental setup that entertained testing of the specimens at various angles of incidence was engineered and utilized.The stabbing bench is also equipped with magnetic sensors and a UK Home Office Scientific Development Branch(HOSDB)/P1/B sharpness engineered knives to measure the impact velocity and exerted impact energy respectively.A silicon compound was utilized to imprint the Back Face Signature(BFS)on the backing material after every specimen test.Each silicon print was then scanned,digitized,and precisely measured to evaluate the stab response and performance of the specimen based on different performance variables,including Depth of Trauma(DOT),Depth of Penetration(DOP),and Length of Penetration(LOP).Besides,the post-impact surface failure modes of the fabrics were also measured using Image software and analyzed at the microscale level.The results show stab angle of incidence greatly influences the stab response and performance of protective textiles.The outcome of the study could provide not only valuable insights into understanding the stab response and capabilities of protective textiles under different angle of incidence,but also provide valuable information for protective textile manufacturer,armor developer and stab testing and standardizing organizations to consider the angle of incidence while developing,testing,optimizing,and using protective textiles in various applications.

文摘Copper is a versatile material,commonly utilized in power transmission and electronic devices,but its relative high reactivity necessitates a long-lasting protective technique.Here,we report a method that combines plasma-enhanced non-equilibrium magnetron sputtering physical vapor deposition(PEUMS-PVD)and anodization to construct a self-healing three-dimensional Ti/Al-doped TiO_(2)nanotubes/Ti_(3)AlC_(2)coating on the surface of Cu substrates.This novel strategy enhances the corrosion resistance of copper substrates in marine environments,with corrosion current densities of up to 4.5643×10^(−8)A/cm^(2).Among them,the doping of nano-aluminum particles makes the coating self-healing.The mechanistic analysis of the corrosion behaviors during early immersion experiments was conducted using electrochemical noise,and revealed that during the initial stages of coating immersion,uniform corrosion predominates,with a minor occurrence of localized corrosion.
文摘This study examines the effects of friction stir welding(FSW)and post-weld heat treatment(PWHT)on the grain boundary character distribution and corrosion resistance of cross sectional(top and bottom)regions of nickel-and molybdenum-free high-nitrogen austenitic stainless steel(HNASS).FSW at 400 rpm and 30 mm/min resulted in finer grains(4.18μm)and higher coincident site lattice(CSL)boundaries(32.3%)at the top of the stir zone(SZ)due to dynamic recrystallization(DRX).PWHT at 900℃for 1 h led to grain coarsening(12.91μm the bottom SZ)but enhanced CSL boundaries from 24.6%to 30.2%,improving grain boundary stability.PWHT reduced the kernel average misorientation(KAM)by 14.9%in the SZ-top layer and 20.4%in the SZ-bottom layer,accompanied by a 25%decrease in hardness in the SZ-top layer and 26.7%in the SZ-bottom layer,indicating strain recovery and reduced dislocation density.Potentiodynamic polarization tests(PDP)showed a 18%increase in pitting potential and a 76%reduction in corrosion rate after PWHT.The improvement in corrosion resistance is attributed to the increase inΣ3 twin boundaries,which enhance grain boundary stability and reduce susceptibility to localized corrosion.These findings highlight the role of PWHT in refining the microstructure and strengthening corrosion resistance,making HNASS a promising material for demanding applications.
文摘In order to improve the wear resistance and high temperature oxidation resistance of titanium and titanium alloy, the high temperature ultra fine ceramic coating containing nano-size nickel particles was prepared by flow coat method on the surface of industrially pure titanium TB1-0. The effects of nano-size nickel particles on the wear resistance and high temperature oxidation resistance of coating substrate system were investigated through oxidation kinetics experiment and wear resistance test. The morphologies of the specimens were examined by means of optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The results show that the high temperature ultra fine ceramic coating has notable protection effect on industrially pure titanium TB1-0 from oxidation. The oxidation and wear resistance properties of the coating can be effectively improved by adding nano-size nickel particles. The oxidative mass gain of the specimen decreases from 11.33 mg·cm-2 to 5.25 mg·cm-2 and the friction coefficient decreases from 1.1 to 0.6 by adding nano-size nickel particles, and the coating containing 10% （mass fraction） nano-size nickel shows the optimum properties.
文摘The results indicate that high protoplast quality corresponds to high stress tolerance. The damage of cell membrane is one of the important mechanisms of stress. The protective enzyme system(superoxide dismutase.peroxidase and catalase) plays an important role in stress tolerance. In the research of hormone it is suggested that ABA can induce chilling torlerance, and the mechanism may correlate with the special gene expression.

文摘Resistance genes enable plants to fight against plant pathogens. Plant resistance genes （R gene） are organized complexly in genome. Some resistance gene sequence data enable an insight into R gene structure and gene evolution. Some sites like Leucine-Rich Repeat （LRR） are of specific interest since homologous recombination can happen. Crossing over, transposon insertion and excision and mutation can produce new specificity. Three models explaining R gene evolution were discussed. More information needed for dissection of R gene evolution though some step can be inferred from genetic and sequence analysis.
