The changes in microstructure and mechanical properties of the carbon fiber and their effects on c/Siccomposites were studied. The H, N and O atoms escaped and the carbon content in the carbon fiber increased when the heat treatment temperature exceeds 1200 degrees c. Meanwhile, the growth of graphite crystallite leaded to stress concentration and reduced the tensile strength of carbon fiber to 2.98 GPa by 1200 degrees c heat treatment. The active atoms on the surface of the carbon fiber were reduced, thus weakening the bonding force between the carbon fiber and the pyrolyticcarbon interface layer and improving the pullout mechanism of the carbon fiber. This result was also observed by synchrotron radiation X-ray computed tomography. The flexural strength of the c/ Siccomposite increased from 300 MPa without treatment to 364 MPa after 1600 degrees c heat treatment.

Fast X-ray photoemission spectroscopy has been carried out to track the interaction of ammonia gas with hybrid materials based on ZnO nanorods and nanostructured carbon. We provide, for the first time, direct evidence of gas adsorption of ammonia on nanostructured hybrid interfaces combining photoemission with transport measurements through the resistivity change upon gas exposure. This operando methodology allowed us to reconstruct the adsorption isotherms and relate the different behavior to the sample morphology at the nanoscale. While on bare ZnO nanorods, physisorption of ammonia is detected along with photon beam assisted cracking, on the nanostructured carbon the formation of amine groups is detected, without displaying any effect induced by photon beam exposure. Our results make the present experiment an operando general methodology, with the possibility to relate the transport versus dose curves (ultimately the adsorption isotherms) to a specific investigation of the gas/surface interactions.

The cyclic and single ablation behavior of c/c-Zrc-Sic and c/c-Zrccomposites prepared by reactive melt infiltration were studied. The ablation resistance properties of cyclic ablation of 30 s x 4 and single ablation of 120 s was similar to that of 60 s x 4 and 240 s. The oxidation of the matrix and the peeling content of oxides are aggravated with the increased cyclic ablation numbers. Under the cyclic ablation mode, c/c-Zrc-Siccomposites showed lower mass loss than c/c-Zrccomposites. At the single ablation of 240 s, c/c-Zrc-Siccomposites showed desirable ablation resistance owing to the formation of an effective heat/oxygen protection layer on the ablated surface.

The main objective of the present work was to study the low-velocity weight-drop impact damage behaviour of carbon - carbon silicon carbide (c/c- Sic) composites on electrical resistivity of the direct-current potential drop method. The results show that the electrical resistivity increases with increasing impact energy, which confirms that pre-microcracks of c/c- Siccomposite grow very rapidly with a little amount of impact load and turn into a loss of conductivity of the material.

In-depth knowledge of the deterioration and reactivation of the anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) induced by carbon-to-nitrogen (c/N) is still lacking. Herein, the anammox performance was investigated in an anaerobic sequence biofilm batch reactor fed with low-strength partial nitration effluent in the range of c/N ratio from 0.5 to 3. The anammox was hardly deteriorated at c/N lower than 1.5, while became worsen if c/N was above 2.0. The specific anammox activity (SAA) experiments showed an 85% decrease of SAA at c/N of 3.0 compared with the maximum value (c/N:0). However, anammox capacity was rapidly recovered once influent c/N was adjusted back to zero. Moreover, c/N also highly affected the composition, structure and function of extracellular polymeric substance of the anammox biofilm. High-throughput sequencing revealed a close cor-relation between c/N change and microbial structure shift. Finally, the potential inhibition and restoration mechanism of the c/N-dependent anammox were proposed based on metagenomic analysis. This research provides some insights into the reinstatement of a mainstream anammox biofilm process after it is interrupted by high c/N influent.

Electrochemical cO2 reduction to valuable multi-carbon (c2+) products is attractive but with poor selectivity and activity due to the low-efficient c-ccoupling. Herein, a lithium vacancy-tuned Li2cuO2 with square-planar [cuO4] layers is developed via an electrochemical delithiation strategy. Density functional theory calculations reveal that the lithium vacancies (V-Li) lead to a shorter distance between adjacent [cuO4] layers and reduce the coordination number of Li+ around each cu, featuring with a lower energy barrier for cO-cO coupling than pristine Li2cuO2 without V-Li. With the V-Li percentage of approximate to 1.6%, the Li2-xcuO2 catalyst exhibits a high Faradaic efficiency of 90.6 +/- 7.6% for c2+ at -0.85 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode without iR correction, and an outstanding partial current density of -706 +/- 32 mA cm(-2). This work suggests an attractive approach to create controllable alkali metal vacancy-tuned cu catalytic sites toward c2+ products in electrochemical cO2 reduction.

To understand the influence of single loading time on the cyclic ablation of carbide modified c/ccomposites, a c/c-Sic-Zrccomposite was impacted by plasma at 2600 K for 50 s under reciprocating 0.5 (c-0.5) and 5 s (c-5), respectively. The composites displayed similar negative mass and rising positive linear ablation rates from c-0.5 to c-5. Phases, micro-morphologies, and surface temperature analysis suggested that the partially oxidized Sic-Zrccovering on the ablated sample cracked and was persistently peeled off. The mass gain resulted from the ceramic's protection of the nearby carbon from complete oxidation. The longer single loading of 5 s caused strengthened thermal chemical reaction and mechanical erosion, which resulted in the bigger linear loss.

Understanding the responses of c:N:P stoichiometry and nutrient resorption to thinning is essential to evaluate the effects of management practices on biogeochemical cycling in plantation forest ecosystems. However, nutrient resorption and c:N:P stoichiometry do not always respond in the same way to various thinning intensities, and the underlying mechanisms are not well understood. In this study, we aimed to examine the mechanisms underlying the impacts of thinning on c:N:P stoichiometry in a Pinus massoniana plantation, focusing on interactions among soils, plant tissues (leaves and litter), and soil properties. We conducted four different thinning treatments to determine the effects of thinning on the c:N:P stoichiometric ratios in leaves, litter, and soil in a Pinus massoniana plantation ecosystem. Thinning significantly increased the c, N, and P content of leaves, litter, and soil (p < 0.05). The effects of thinning on c:N:P stoichiometry varied strongly with thinning intensity. Specifically, thinning significantly decreased all c:N:P stoichiometry except leaf N:P and litter c:N (p < 0.05). The N resorption efficiency (NRE) showed no significant change, but thinning significantly decreased the P resorption efficiency (PRE, p < 0.05). This suggests that thinning has inconsistent impacts on N and P cycling in Pinus massoniana plantations. In addition, these different responses suggest that soil physicochemical processes play a crucial role in regulating the effects of thinning. Thinning intensity regulates the biogeochemical cycles of c, N, and P in Pinus massoniana plantation ecosystems by affecting nutrient resorption and soil physicochemical processes. The inconsistent results obtained can be attributed to the complexities of stand environments and the redistribution of site resources following thinning. Therefore, incorporating the effects of thinning intensity into nutrient cycling models may improve predictions related to achieving long-term forest manageme

In this paper, for the first time, simultaneous atmospheric temperature perturbation profiles obtained from the TIMED/SABER satellite and equatorial ion density and vertical plasma drift velocity observations with and without ESF activity obtained from the c/NOFS satellite are used to investigate the effect of gravity waves (GW) on ESF. The horizontal and vertical wavelengths of ionospheric oscillations and GWs are estimated by applying wavelet analysis techniques. In addition, vertically propagating GWs that dissipate energy in the ionosphere-thermosphere system are investigated using the spectral analysis technique. We find that the vertical wavelength of GW, corresponding to dominant wavelet power, ranges from 12 to 31 km regardless of the conditions of the ionosphere;however, GWs with vertical wavelengths between about 1 to 13 km are found every day, saturated between 90 and 110 km at different longitudinal sectors. Filtering out vertical wavelengths above 13 km from temperature perturbations, ranges of zonal wavelengths of GW (i.e., from about 290 to 950 km) are found corresponding to irregular and non-irregular ionosphere. Similarly, corresponding to dominant oscillations, the zonal wavelength of ion density perturbations is found within 16 to 1520 km. Moreover, we find an excellent agreement among the median zonal wavelengths of GW for the cases of irregular and non-irregular ionosphere and ion density perturbations that are 518, 495, and 491 km, respectively. The results imply that seed perturbations due to GW with a vertical wavelength from about 1 to 13 km evolve to ion density irregularity and may be amplified due to post-sunset vertical upward drift velocity.

A series of pendant-type alkoxysilane structures with various carbon numbers (c-1-c-8) were used to fabricate sol-gel derived organosilica membranes to evaluate the effects of the c/Si ratio and fluorine doping. Initially, this investigation was focused on the effect that carbon-linking (pendant-type) units exert on a microporous structure and how this affects the gas-permeation properties of pendant-type organosilica membranes. Gas permeation results were compared with those of bridged-type organosilica membranes (c-1-c-8). Network pore size evaluation was conducted based on the selectivity of H-2/N-2 and the activation energy (E-p) of H-2 permeation. consequently, E-p (H-2) was increased as the c/Si ratio increased from c-1 to c-8, which could have been due to the aggregation of pendant side chains that occupied the available micropore channel space and resulted in the reduced pore size. By comparison, these permeation results indicate that pendant-type organosilica membranes showed a somewhat loose network structure in comparison with bridged-type organosilica membranes by following the lower values of activation energies (E-p). Subsequently, we also evaluated the effect that fluorine doping (NH4F) exerts on pendant-type [methytriethoxysilane (MTES), propyltrimethoxysilane (PTMS)] and bridged-type [1,2-bis(triethoxysilyl)methane (BTESM) bis(triethoxysilyl)propane (BTESP)] organosilica structures with similar carbon numbers (c-1 and c-3). The gas-permeation properties of F-doped pendant network structures revealed values for pore size, H-2/N-2 selectivity, and E-p (H-2) that were comparable to those of pristine organosilica membranes. This could be ascribed to the pendant side chains, which might have hindered the effectiveness of fluorine in pendant-type organosilica structures. The F-doped bridged-type organosilica (BTESM and BTESP) membranes, on the other hand, exhibited a looser network formation as the fluorine concentration increased.
