Oxygen diffusion through perovskite membranes
The oxygen permeation flux through the perovskite membrane made of Ba0.5Sr0.5Co0.8Fe0.2O3-δ (BSCF) has been measured as a function of both the temperature and the oxygen pressure gradient across the membrane. A simple model for the surface exchange fluxes was used to understand the mechanism of the oxygen transport. The limiting step of the oxygen transport was found to be the bulk diffusion fo...
متن کاملPreparation of Pluronic/Bile salt/Phospholipid Mixed Micelles as Drug Solubility Enhancer and Study the Effect of the PPO Block Size on the Solubility of Pyrene
Pluronic/bile salt/phospholipid mixed micelles (Pluronic/BS/PS-MM) drug carrier system for solubilization hydrophobic drugs was developed. A typical hydrophobic compound, pyrene, was selected as a representative hydrophobic compound to model the hydrophobic drugs. Five Pluronics, F68, F88, F98, F108, and F127 with different PPO chain length were studied. CMC data and solubilization capacities w...
متن کاملLessons of slicing membranes: interplay of packing, free area, and lateral diffusion in phospholipid/cholesterol bilayers.
We employ 100-ns molecular dynamics simulations to study the influence of cholesterol on structural and dynamic properties of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine bilayers in the fluid phase. The effects of the cholesterol content on the bilayer structure are considered by varying the cholesterol concentration between 0 and 50%. We concentrate on the free area in the membrane and investigate quantiti...
متن کاملElectrochemistry of oxygen in concentrated NaOH solutions: solubility, diffusion coefficients, and superoxide formation.
The diffusion coefficient (D(O(2))), solubility (C(O(2))), and electrochemical behavior of oxygen reduction were investigated by cyclic voltammetry and transient amperometry on a Pt ultramicroelectrode in aqueous solutions containing various concentrations of NaOH (1-12 M). The results show that both D(O(2)) and C(O(2)) decrease as the solution viscosity (eta) increases significantly with incre...
متن کاملAN ANALYTICAL SOLUTION FOR DIFFUSION AND NONLINEAR UPTAKE OF OXYGEN IN THE RETINA
A simple mathematical model of steady state oxygen distribution subject to diffusive transport and non- linear uptake in a retinal cylinder has been developed. The approximate analytical solution to a reaction- diffusion equation are obtained by using series expansions. The computational results for the scaled variables are presented through graphs. The effect of the important parameters (1) d...
