利用SEM-EDS分析火场中白炽灯灯丝通电状态

该文模拟火灾现场中白炽灯破坏的不同情况,制备普通白炽灯在不同状态下破坏的灯丝残骸试样,利用扫描电子显微镜-X射线能谱仪分析灯丝残骸表面的微观形貌及其元素组成含量.研究发现,通电状态下被破坏的白炽灯灯丝表面与未通电破坏状态下灯丝表面的元素成分差异较大.经过高温或烟熏的作用,灯丝表面成分也有变化.鉴于不同破坏条件下灯丝表面成分及含量存在明显的差异,可以利用能谱分析的方法判断火场中白炽灯的通电状态.     

不同条件下进行渗后扩散的铝硅涂层氧化行为研究

目的提高铝硅涂层的抗氧化性能。方法采用料浆法在DZ417G定向凝固镍基高温合金叶片的燃气流道表面制备铝硅防护涂层,通过扫描电子显微镜(SEM)分析不同条件下进行渗后扩散的铝硅涂层表面显微组织形貌和截面显微组织形貌。结果无保护气氛下进行渗后扩散处理的铝硅涂层,在扩散过程中就已经发生了氧化,氧化过程首先形成多孔非致密结构的θ-Al_2O_3相,随着氧化过程的进行,θ-Al_2O_3相逐渐转变成致密结构的α-Al_2O_3相,从而起到真正的抗氧化作用。结论铝硅涂层中的Al元素提前被消耗,对铝硅涂层的使用寿命存在一定影响,因而渗后扩散须保证在真空条件下或有保护气氛条件下进行,使叶片表面渗后的铝浓度达到一定的要求,从而在使用过程中可以生成致密结构的α-Al_2O_3相,起到抗氧化作用,提高叶片的使用寿命。     

Unique zinc mass in mandibles separates drywood termites from other groups of termites

Previously, the presence of metals in arthropod mandibles has been linked with harder cuticle, and in termites, a 20% increase in hardness has been found for mandibles containing major quantities of zinc. The current study utilises electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray microanalysis to assess incidence and abundance of metals in all extant subfamilies of the Isoptera. The basal clades contain no zinc and little to no manganese in the cutting edge of the mandible cuticle, suggesting that these states are ancestral for termites. However, experimentation with mandibles in vitro indicates the presence of some elements of the cuticular biochemistry necessary to enable uptake of zinc. The Termopsidae, Serritermitidae, Rhinotermitidae and Termitidae all contain minor quantities of manganese, while trace to minor quantities of zinc occur in all except the Serritermitidae. In contrast, all Kalotermitidae or drywood termites contain major levels of zinc in the mandible edge. Diet and life type are explored as links to metal profiles across the termites. The presence of harder mandibles in the drywood termites may be related to lack of access to free water with which to moisten wood. Scratch tests were applied to a set of mandibles. The coefficient of friction for Cryptotermes primus (Kalotermitidae) mandibles, when compared with species from other subfamilies, indicates that zinc-containing mandibles are likely to be more scratch resistant.     

铜导线短路熔痕的SEM/EDS分析

在电气线路火灾原因的调查中,为更好地区分铜导线一次短路与二次短路的熔痕特征,用扫描电子显微镜(SEM)和X-射线能谱仪(EDS)对2种熔痕的形貌和相应的元素成分进行了试验研究。结果表明:铜导线一次短路与二次短路熔痕的表观形貌特征和元素成分具有明显的不同,二者的区别主要表现在熔痕表面所含的气孔、元素种类及导线本体与熔痕之间的过渡区方面,一次短路熔痕表面气孔多,元素种类少,导线与熔痕之间有明显界限,二次短路熔痕则相反。该研究结果可以区分短路熔痕形成的环境气氛,以此判断导线短路熔痕类型,为电气线路火灾原因的调查提供科学依据。

Can real-life driving ability be predicted by the Maintenance of Wakefulness Test?

Objective: Drowsy driving is a profound road safety issue. In patients with excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS), the Maintenance of Wakefulness Test (MWT) is commonly used to evaluate driving ability. However, there is little evidence that MWT predicts driving performance, and several sleep latency cutoffs have been suggested.

Methods: Based on a retrospective chart analysis of patients with an MWT and a driving ability assessment between January 2006 and November 2014, we identified 63 studies in 60 patients. The driving ability assessment judged the patients as qualified or disqualified for commercial driving. MWT latencies to 3?s of alpha activity, 3?s of drowsiness (microsleep), and sleep onset were compared between qualified and disqualified patients and their validity to identify driving qualification was evaluated.

Results: Disqualified patients had shorter alpha, microsleep, and sleep latencies, but the latency distributions were widely overlapping. MWT accuracy to predict driving performance was poor: two thirds of short sleep latencies were false positives. Adding information from alpha and microsleep latencies added little extra accuracy.

Conclusions: MWT results correlate poorly with driving performance in a 2-h test irrespective of sleep latency cutoff or added alpha/microsleep latency data. Better diagnostic tools are needed to evaluate driving performance in patients with EDS.     

新疆盐尘颗粒的迁移及其对城市大气颗粒物的贡献

对2017年9月至2018年8月、12月采集的乌鲁木齐市PM_2.5、“沙雪”样品和克拉玛依土样的水溶性离子进行分析,并结合城市主要风向、扫描电镜联能谱（SEM/EDS）和后向轨迹模型（HYSPLIT）,对环境中盐尘粒子的来源及其对大气颗粒物形成的影响进行了研究.结果表明：PM_2.5中总水溶性离子平均浓度为（62.65±64.75）μg/m³,变化范围为0.69~328.60 μg/m³.其中SO₄²、Ca²⁺、Na⁺、Cl^-、K⁺和Mg²⁺ 6种盐尘粒子浓度分别为（22.73±26.45）,（2.11±3.11）,（1.85±1.43）,（0.40±0.40）,（0.28±0.20）,（0.21±0.15）μg/m³.四季风向结合HYSPLIT模型结果可知,PM_2.5中盐尘粒子主要来源于艾比湖及玛纳斯盐湖的气团;受风沙影响,乌鲁木齐市雪样中Cl^-、SO₄^2-、Ca²⁺、K⁺、Mg²⁺和Na⁺分别增加了30,19,20,5,7和5倍.     

渗铝温度/时间对镍基高温合金的渗层形成影响规律

目的提高材料的高温抗氧化腐蚀性能。方法采用气相渗铝方法在K417镍基高温合金表面制备铝化物涂层,通过光学显微镜、扫描电子显微镜(SEM)和能谱(EDS)分析渗铝层厚度、显微组织形貌和各元素在渗层中的分布,分析温度和时间对镍基高温合金渗铝层的形成影响规律。结果气相渗铝方法制备的渗铝层组织为典型的外扩散型组织即外层是单一的β-NiAl相,内层是含富Cr析出相的扩散层,扩散层的细小析出相对Al元素的扩散起到阻碍作用。结论随着渗铝温度的提高和渗铝时间的延长,渗层厚度逐渐增加,且渗铝温度对渗层厚度的影响远高于渗铝时间对渗层深度的影响。渗铝温度临界值为980℃,低于该温度时厚度增长不显著,高于该温度时厚度对渗铝温度和时间的敏感性增加。此外,渗铝温度越高,渗铝层组织中形成孔洞的倾向越大。

Fungal spores and pollen in particulate matter collected during agricultural activities in the Po Valley (Italy)

Airborne particulate matter (PM) containing fungal spores and pollen grains was sampled within a monitoring campaign of wheat threshing, plowing and sowing agricultural operations. Fungal spores and pollen grains were detected and identified on morphological basis. No studies were previously available about fungal spore and pollen content in agricultural PM in the Po Valley. Sampling was conducted in a Po Valley farmland in Mezzano (Ferrara, Italy). The organic particles collected were examined by scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer. Fungal spores and pollen grains were identified when possible at the level of species. The most frequent components of the organic particles sampled were spores of Aspergillus sp., which could represent a risk of developing allergies and aspergillosis for crop farmers.
