In this study, we present a new concept in chemically stabilized ionic liquid membranes: an ionic liquid organosilica (ILOS) membrane, which is an organosilica membrane with ionic liquid-like properties. A silylated ionic liquid was used as a precursor for synthesis. The permselectivity, permeation mechanism, and stability of the membrane in the H₂/toluene binary system were then compared with ...

The liquid-core fiber with relatively high refractive index difference between the core and cladding is proven to be bending insensitive. The single mode condition and bending loss of the fiber with a mixture of toluene and chloroform as its core material are studied. The results show that the bending loss of this fiber is not only much smaller than the conventional silica single mode fiber but...

We present the results of an experimental study of patterned segregation in a horizontally shaken shallow layer of a binary mixture of dry particles. As the compacity, C, of the mixture was increased, the evolution of three distinct phases was observed. We classify them as binary gas, segregation liquid and segregation crystal phases using macroscopic and microscopic measures. The binary gas to...

A simple and environmentally benign procedure for the synthesis of 14-aryl-14H-dibenzo[a,j]xanthenes by a one-pot condensation of 2-naphthol with aromatic aldehyde in the presence of [Et3NH][HSO4] as an acidic ionic liquid catalyst under solvent-free conditions has been developed. The reaction work-up is very simple and the catalyst can be easily separated from the reaction mixture and reused s...

To compensate for the temperature dependency of a standard FBG, a cladding-etched FBG immersed with a liquid mixture having a negative thermo-optic coefficient is presented, and its characteristics are investigated. The Bragg wavelength of the cladding-etched FBG is shifted counter to the direction of the Bragg wavelength shift of a conventional FBG according to the mixing ratio of glycerin to ...

an efficient, rapid, simple, and highly selective dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction basedon solidification of floating organic drop (dllme-sfod), combined with flame atomicabsorption spectrometry was developed for preconcentration and determination of trace amountsof cobalt in water samples. in this method, an appropriate mixture of acetone and1-undecanol was injected rapidly into the aq...

Identification of the radicals was performed for the standard reaction mixtures, which contained 4.3 mM oleic acid, 25 µM riboflavin, 1 mM FeSO(4)(NH(4))(2)SO(4), 10 mM cholic acid, 40 mM phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) and 0.1 M α-(4-pyridyl-1-oxide)-N-tert-butylnitrone under the UVA irradiation (365 nm), using an electron spin resonance, an high performance liquid chromatography-electron spin reson...

a study was carried out to investigate the effects of organic acid mixture as well as two methionine supplements on performance, carcass characteristics and weight of gastrointestinal tract in broiler chickens. six hundred unsexed day-old ross 308 broiler chicks were utilized in a factorial arrangement of treatments (3×2) based on completely randomized design (crd) of 4 replicates of 25 chicks ...

The mixing behavior of the gas-liquid phase in three loop bioreactors was investigated. A gas-induced External Airlift Loop Bioreactor (EALB), a forced-liquid Vertical Tubular Loop Bioreactor (VTLB) and a forced-liquid Horizontal Tubular Loop Bioreactor (HTLB) were used for mixing studies as well as biomass production from natural gas. The effect of design parameters, riser to downcomer cro...
