A selectively-energy-absorbing nanoporous system
نویسندگان
چکیده
By forcing an aqueous solution of N-lauroylsarcosine sodium salt and 8-anilino-1-naphthalenesulfonic acid ammonium salt in a hydrophobic nanoporous silica gel, the external work can be largely dissipated due to the amplified capillary effect. The sorption isotherm curve is two-staged, and the height and the width of stage-I infiltration plateau can be adjusted separately by controlling the liquid composition. It provides a scientific basis for developing selective protection and damping liquids. © 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

An experimental investigation on a nanoporous carbon functionalized liquid damper
The behaviour of a p-xylene-based lyophobic nanoporous carbon system under high hydrostatic pressures is investigated. As the pressure is increased to a critical value, the nanopore surfaces between graphene layers are exposed to the liquid phase, leading to a considerable increase in solid–liquid interfacial energy. During unloading, defiltration does not occur until the pressure is much lower...
متن کاملEffect of Corner Bluntness on Energy Absorbing Capability of Non-circular Metallic Tubes Subjected to Axial Impact
The energy absorbing capability is one of the most important aspects of crushing behavior of a structure subjected to axial impact. In this paper, a simple practical method is introduced to enhance the crushing behavior of this kind of structure. The axial impact of metallic energy absorbing thin-walled tubes with special shaped cross-section is simulated using LS-DYNA software. The effect of c...
متن کاملEffective optical properties of non-absorbing nanoporous thin films
Numerous effective medium models have been proposed for the effective optical properties of nanoporous media. However, validations of these models against experimental data are often contradictory and inconclusive. This issue was numerically investigated by solving the twodimensional Maxwell’s equations in non-absorbing nanoporous thin films with various morphologies. It was found that below a ...
متن کاملApplication of Hydrothermal and Non-Hydrothermal TiO2 Nanoporous Materials as New Adsorbents for Removal of Heavy Metal Ions from Aqueous System
Hydrothermal and non-hydrothermal spherical TiO2 nanoporous with crystalline framework were prepared by sol-gel method. The Crystalline structures, morphologies and surface texturing of materials were determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and N2 adsorption-desorption isotherms. The Hydrothermal spherical TiO2 nanoporous was found to have a narrow and strong p...
متن کاملInfiltration of liquid metals in a nanoporous carbon
Gallium and mercury are employed as liquid phases in a nanoporous carbonbased energy absorption system. Owing to the large surface tensions, the nanopore surface is non-wettable. Pressure-induced infiltration is observed and defiltration is difficult. The energy absorption efficiency is much higher than that of previously investigated nanoporous silica-based systems. The nominal solid–liquid in...
