    A facile and controllable one-step hydrothermal method to synthesize nanodisks and nanorods of zinc oxide with exposed different crystal facets of (0001), (1 (1) over bar 00), (01 (1) over bar0), and (10 (1) over bar0) has been realized. It was found that the average percentage of exposed (0001) crystal facets follows the order of nanodisks > nanorods-1 > nanorods-2 > nanorods-3, while the average percentage of exposed (1 (1) over bar 00), (01 (1) over bar0), and (10 (1) over bar0) crystal facets decreases monotonically. The sensing tests to NO2 indicate that the nanodisks exhibit higher sensitivity. It has also been validated that the (0001) crystal facet has the highest surface energy and the lowest binding energy, which is considered to be the key factor of high gas-sensing by the calculations of density functional theory. This finding will open a new window to explore the relationship between gas-sensing and exposed facets and will be useful for designing gas-sensing materials with specifically exposed surfaces

    No full text
    Backspin serve is a common serve in table tennis matches, and it is also one of the difficult contents for students to master in college table tennis teaching. In order to make students master backspin serve more quickly, the author tries to practice the interest and practicability of serve in the teaching process. This paper expounds and analyzes the feedback information in the concrete implementation and practice in order to further improve the teaching content of physical education in colleges and universities and provide teaching reference for school teaching and sports training

    Optimal Design of Angular Displacement Sensor with Shared Magnetic Field Based on the Magnetic Equivalent Loop Method

    No full text
    Angular displacement sensor with shared magnetic field has strong environmental adaptability and high measurement accuracy. However, its 3-D structure is multi-pole double-layer structure, using time stepping finite element method (TSFEM) to optimize the structure is time-consuming and uneconomical. Therefore, a magnetic equivalent loop method (MELM) is proposed to simplify the optimal design of sensors. By reasonably setting the node position, the mechanical structure parameters, winding coefficients and input voltage of the sensor are integrated into a mathematical model to calculate of the induced voltage. The calculation results are compared with the simulation results, and a sensor prototype is made to test the optimized effect of the MELM

    Low molecular weight hindered amine light stabilizers (HALS) intercalated MgAl-Layered double hydroxides: Preparation and anti-aging performance in polypropylene nanocomposites

    International audienceA low molecular weight hindered amine light stabilizer (HALS), contains 2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethyl piperidine functional group has been successfully prepared and intercalated into the interlayer region of Mg-Al layered double hydroxides (LDH) via a co-precipitation method to produce HALS-LDH. Furthermore, a series of HALS-LDH/PP nanocomposites were fabricated by dispersing HALS-LDH in poly(propylene) (PP) in a solvent casting route. Through the accelerated aging test method, the morphological properties, the thermal-oxidative degradation and photo-oxidative degradation behavior of HALS-LDH/PP composites were carefully investigated. The results show that the thermal stability of HALS in HALS-LDH was improved compared to that of HALS free of LDH dispersed into PP, and there is no negative effect on the crystallization behavior of PP after the addition of HALS-LDH. Besides, the HALS-LDH significantly enhances synergistically the thermal- and photo-stability of PP compared when LDH platelets CO3-LDH or HALS are used separately. Under the experimental conditions, a mass loading of HALS-LDH optimized as 4 wt % in respect to PP was found to exhibit an excellent anti-aging performance for potential applications
