In this study, a facile one-pot method was developed to create hierarchical porous M−ZIF−8 by utilizing NaOH as defecting agent. The as-synthesized material comprising macroporous and mesoporous exhibits porosity. TiO2 (anatase) with different mass ratios (5%, 15%, 25%) were immobilized into combine the synergism of adsorption photocatalytic oxidation. Five percent in gave best degradation. kin...

For high end heat exchanging applications in cryogenics and space application, compactness and effectiveness are the key factors which determine the performance of heat exchanger. Matrix heat exchanger with perforated plate heat surfaces has both criterions to suit into these applications. High thermal conductivity plate and low thermal conductivity spacers are stacked together to obtain low lo...

Quantitative scaling into percent signal change is helpful to detect and eliminate “bad” results with abnormal extreme values. While cognitive effects give signal changes on the order of 1% (and larger in the visual and auditory cortices), signal variations of over 10% may arise from motion and other artifacts in the data. Thus, a quantitative check on measured effect size can be used to screen...

We will present calculations and experiments on the effect of porosity on the shock wave attenuation, dynamic strength and fragment distribution of porous, brittle materials. These results are part of our developing theory of porosity effects on impact processes in solar system materials. We will also examine the effects of porosity on crack propagation in ice and comet analog materials. The st...

1 ABSTRACT The continuous casting process is a widely used technique in modern steel plants. However, it is a complicated process that is not well understood. The objective of this research is to model the porosity and macrosegregation due to shrinkage related effects and solid deformation in the continuous casting of steel. Solid phase movements due to bulging and variable roll gap are modeled...

We present a series of numerically calculated plate height and flow resistance data obtained for an idealized chromatographic support mimic with variable bed porosity (0.3 </= epsilon </= 0.9), yielding a unique insight into how the main chromatographic performance parameters can be expected to vary with the external bed porosity, unbiased by any differences in molecular diffusivity or retentio...

An electrochemical etching technique has been developed that provides continuous control over the porosity of a porous silicon layer as a function of etching depth. Thin films with engineered porosity gradients, and thus a controllable gradient in the index of refraction, have been used to demonstrate broadband antireflection properties on silicon wafer and solar cell substrates. A simulation w...
