Fabrication of Porous Hydrogenation Catalysts by a Selective Laser Sintering 3D Printing Technique
2019
Open in a separate window Three-dimensional selective laser sintering printing was utilized to produce porous, solid objects, in which the catalytically active component, Pd/SiO2, is attached to an easily printable supporting polypropylene framework. Physical properties of the printed objects, such as porosity, were controlled by varying the printing parameters. Structural characterization of the objects was performed by helium ion microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray tomography, and the catalytic performance of the objects was tested in the hydrogenation of styrene, cyclohexene, and phenylacetylene. The results show that the selective laser sintering process provides an alte…
Pore fabric geometry inferred from magnetic and acoustic anisotropies in rocks with various mineralogy, permeability and porosity.
2014
14 pages; International audience; he ferrofluid impregnation technique combined with anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility measurements (AMSff) is one of the ways to analyze the 3-D geometry of the pore space in a rock and indirectly to infer the anisotropy of permeability. We applied this method on different types of rocks (sandstones and carbonates) with a range of different porosity values (10-30%) and permeability (1 mD to 1 D). To get additional information on both the pore aspect ratio and the directional anisotropy we used another technique, measuring the anisotropy of P-waves velocity (APV) in dry and water saturated conditions. Comparing between both methods shows that despite the …
PLA based biocomposites reinforced with Posidonia oceanica leaves
2018
Abstract Biocomposites can valorize some natural products related to natural processes or crop and waste industries. In this work, leaves of Posidonia oceanica (PO), dominant sea grass in the Mediterranean Sea, were used to prepare PLA based biocomposites. Materials were prepared by melt mixing PLA with PO as filler. The morphology as well as the mechanical and thermal properties of PLA/PO composites were evaluated and related with the influence of the content and size of PO. Moreover, the experimental elastic moduli of the biocomposites was modelled employing the Halpin–Tsai (HT) model. Furthermore, in order to take into consideration the high porosity of PO leaves, the HT parameters relat…
Velocity of the fourth sound in liquid helium II via extended thermodynamics
2003
This work continues a study begun in previous works, where, using Extended Thermodynamics, a monofluid model of liquid helium II is formulated. The wave propagation in bulk liquid helium II is studied in the hypothesis that the thermal dilatation is not zero. The propagation of fourth sound, studied previously neglecting both the thermal dilatation and finite volume of the powder, is studied without these simplified hypotheses: a scattering correction n is introduced to take into account the porosity. The model is more general than the standard two-fluid model because it allows that a small amount of entropy is associated with helium when it flows through a very thin capillary or a porous m…

Experimental research of surfaced nanoparticle thermal transport in a porous medium
2018
Abstract Experimental research on thermally induced nanocolloid transport in a porous environment is presented. Addition of excess surfactant to a colloid with dispersed phase made of surfaced nanoparticles results in a decrease of effective Soret coefficient in a porous environment. It is shown that with sufficient amounts of surfactant added, this effect extends to a reversal of nanoparticle thermophoretic transport direction, and that the effect shows a tendency of saturation. A mechanism of thermal transport that involves slip velocity of surfactant molecules appearing near pore walls is evaluated as a possible cause of the decrease of Soret coefficient. Effects of temperature on partic…
Protein diffusion in mammalian cell cytoplasm.
2011
We introduce a new method for mesoscopic modeling of protein diffusion in an entire cell. This method is based on the construction of a three-dimensional digital model cell from confocal microscopy data. The model cell is segmented into the cytoplasm, nucleus, plasma membrane, and nuclear envelope, in which environment protein motion is modeled by fully numerical mesoscopic methods. Finer cellular structures that cannot be resolved with the imaging technique, which significantly affect protein motion, are accounted for in this method by assigning an effective, position-dependent porosity to the cell. This porosity can also be determined by confocal microscopy using the equilibrium distribut…
Microstructure of Ag2BI4(B = Ag, Cd) superionics studied by SEM, impedance spectroscopy and fractal dimension analysis
2008
Two silver ion conducting solid electrolytes, Ag2HgI4 and Ag2CdI4, representing a wide class of AgI-based halogenide superionics have been the subjects of study by means of electrical impedance spectroscopy, SEM, porosity measurements and fractal dimension analysis. Even though both materials have been obtained by the same method under strictly identical conditions they were found to exhibit certain differences at the microstructural level. Thus, by the direct measurements of porosity and density it was found that the grain boundaries are better developed in silver mercuric iodide. On the assumption that pore geometry in the materials under study displays fractal character it was shown that…

Electrodeposition of CeO2 and Co-Doped CeO2 Nanotubes by Cyclic Anodization in Porous Alumina Membranes
2013
An anodic electrodeposition process is proposed to prepare CeO2 and Co-doped CeO2 nanotubes. Anodic alumina membrane is used as template and linear sweep voltammetry is employed to allow the formation of nanotubes without alumina dissolution. SEM micrographs showed large arrays of well defined and aligned NTs, which resulted to be crystalline soon after deposition according to XRD diffraction patterns and Raman Spectroscopy.
