- 2004
-
Patent (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- A domestic, institutional, industrial, and/or com. method of reducing glassware surface corrosion in an automatic dishwashing appliance comprises the step of contacting a glassware surface with a corrosion protection agent comprising: (a) an effective amt. of a zinc-contg. layered material, said material having a particle size in the range of about 1 nm to about 100 nm and a crystallinity value of from about 0.4 to about 0.8625 FWHM units, at a 200 reflective peak; and (b) optionally, an adjunct ingredient and (c) a dispersant polymer: said contacting being done at a pH greater than 9 to about 14. Methods using corrosion protection agents that form a part of a treatment system and/or are incorporated in a compn. of matter are also provided. [on SciFinder(R)]

- The objective of this work is to study the effects Of SiO2/Al2O3 of HZSM-5, MgO modification and hydrothermal treatment on methylation of 4-methylbiphenyl (4-MBP) with methanol under fixed-bed down-flow conditions. The results show that, with an increase in the SiO2/Al2O3 of HZSM-5 (from 50 to 150, molar ratio), the selectivity to 4,4'-dimethylbiphenyl (4,4'-DMBP) increases from 25 to 79%. MgO modification also increases the selectivity to 4,4'-DMBP, but leads as well to low catalyst activity and rapid deactivation. Hydrothermal treatment not only increases the selectivity, but also improves the stability. When CBV1502 (SiO2/Al2O3 = 150) catalyst was hydrothermally treated at 500degreesC, the selectivity to 4,4'-DMBP increased to 85%. The selectivity to 4,4'-DMBP was further improved to about 90% by the increasing in the amount of mesitylene in the feed as solvent.

- A series of HZSM-5 zeolite catalysts modifed with metal oxides (MgO, CaO, SrO, BaO, ZnO, La2O3 and CeO2) were prepared by impregnation method and characterized by XRD, TPD and N-2-adsorption. Methylation of 4-methylbiphenyl (4-MBP) with methanol to 4,4'-dimethylbiphenyl (4,4'-DMBP) was carried out over the prepared catalysts under fixed-bed down-flow conditions. The results showed that the MgO-modified HZSM-5 can significantly improve the selectivity for target product 4,4'-DMBP (up to 80 % vs only 13 % over the parent HZSM-5). The effects of metal oxides on 4,4'-DMBP selectivity are arranged in the following order: MgO>SrOapproximate toZnOapproximate toCaOapproximate toLa(2)O(3)>BaO>CeO2. The effects of MgO contents, precursor-salt types, and loading methods were further investigated, and the results revealed that during 4-MBP conversion, proper MgO loading (5.6 %) can be more effective, and the ion-exchange methed is much better than the impregnation method. However, it is difficult to get higher metal oxide loading by using the ion-exchange method. The high selectivity over HZSM-5 modified with MgO largely results from the depression of 4,4-DMBP second reactions such as isomerization, dealkylation and alkylation, as demonstrated by the reaction of 4,4'-DMBP as reactant over MgO/ZSM-5 catalyst and HZSM-5 zeolite.

- A series of ZSM-5 samples modified with metal oxides MO(M = Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba and Zn) were employed for the alkylation of 4-methylbiphenyl (4-MBP) with methanol to 4,4'-dimethylbiphenyl (4,4'-DMBP) under fixed-bed down-flow conditions. The methylation results showed that the use of basic metal oxides can effectively enhance the selectivity to the target product 4,4'-DMBP. MgO is the most effective modifier among the metal oxides used and it can improve selectivity to 4,4'-DMBP up to 80% as compared to only 13% over the parent zeolite HZSM-5. The modi. cation effectiveness of metal oxides on 4,4'-DMBP selectivity can be arranged in the order MgO> SrO similar to ZnO similar to CaO> BaO. The optimization of MgO modi. cation through the content, salt types and loading methods revealed that proper MgO loading (5.6 wt%) can be more effective, and the impregnation method is much better than ion exchange. The correlation of physicochemical properties (TPD, TGA, chemical analysis and chemical adsorption, etc.) of the modified HZSM-5 with the catalytic data showed that the high selectivity over ZSM-5 modified with MgO largely results from the effective suppression of 4,4'-DMBP secondary reactions such as isomerization, dealkylation and alkylation.

- Recent experimental observations of spike-timing-dependent synaptic plasticity (STDP) have revitalized the study of synaptic learning rules. The most surprising aspect of these experiments lies in the observation that synapses activated shortly after the occurrence of a postsynaptic spike are weakened. Thus, synaptic plasticity is sensitive to the temporal ordering of pre- and postsynaptic activation. This temporal asymmetry has been suggested to underlie a range of learning tasks. In the first part of this review we highlight some of the common themes from a range of findings in the framework of predictive coding. As an example of how this principle can be used in a learning task, we discuss a recent model of cortical map formation. In the second part of the review, we point out some of the differences in STDP models and their functional consequences. We discuss how differences in the weight-dependence, the time-constants and the non-linear properties of learning rules give rise to distinct computational functions. In light of these computational issues raised, we review current experimental findings and suggest further experiments to resolve some controversies.
