Electro-conductive paths that are mechanically resistant and stable during simulated aging cycles are promising, in relation to the non-invasive application in e-textiles in our everyday surroundings. In the paper, an analysis of the influence of electro-conductive filler, as well as ionic liquid on surface resistance is provided. Authors proved that depending on the tested variant, obtained surface resistance may vary from 50 kΩ (when 50 phr of Ag and [bmim][PF6] ionic liquid applied) to 26 GΩ (when 25 phr of Ag and [bmim][PF6] ionic liquid applied). The samples were also evaluated after simulated aging cycles and the stability of electric properties was confirmed. Moreover, it was proved that the addition of ionic liquids reduced the resistance of vulcanizates, while no significant influence of the extrusion process on conductivity was observed.

AbstractLocal linear stability analysis has been shown to provide valuable information about the response of jet diffusion flames to flow-field perturbations. However, this analysis commonly relies on several modelling assumptions about the mean flow prescription, the thermo-viscous-diffusive transport properties, and the complexity and representation of the chemical reaction mechanisms. In this work, the effects of these modelling assumptions on the stability behaviour of a jet diffusion flame are systematically investigated. A flamelet formulation is combined with linear stability theory to fully account for the effects of complex transport properties and the detailed reaction chemistry on the perturbation dynamics. The model is applied to a methane–air jet diffusion flame that was experimentally investigated by Füriet al.(Proc. Combust. Inst., vol. 29, 2002, pp. 1653–1661). Detailed simulations are performed to obtain mean flow quantities, about which the stability analysis is performed. Simulation results show that the growth rate of the inviscid instability mode is insensitive to the representation of the transport properties at low frequencies, and exhibits a stronger dependence on the mean flow representation. The effects of the complexity of the reaction chemistry on the stability behaviour are investigated in the context of an adiabatic jet flame configuration. Comparisons with a detailed chemical-kinetics model show that the use of a one-step chemistry representation in combination with a simplified viscous-diffusive transport model can affect the mean flow representation and heat release location, thereby modifying the instability behaviour. This is attributed to the shift in the flame structure predicted by the one-step chemistry model, and is further exacerbated by the representation of the transport properties. A pinch-point analysis is performed to investigate the stability behaviour; it is shown that the shear-layer instability is convectively unstable, while the outer buoyancy-driven instability mode transitions from absolutely to convectively unstable in the nozzle near field, and this transition point is dependent on the Froude number.

Abstract This research work focuses on the reactivity, stability, and electronic interaction of pyridinium hydrogen nitrate (PHN)-based ionic liquids and the influence of methyl substituent on this class of ionic liquids: Ortho- (O-MPHN), meta- (M-MPHN), and para- (P-MPHN) substitution. Natural bond orbital (NBO) calculations were performed at the density functional theory (DFT) with Becke’s Lee Yang and Parr functional (B3LYP) methods and DFT/B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) as basis set using GAUSSIAN 09W and GAUSSVIEW 6.0 software and the most important interaction between donor (Filled Lewis-type NBO’s) and the acceptor (vacant non-Lewis NBOs) were observed. From our natural bond orbital (NBO) result, it could be deduced that the higher the stabilization energy value, the greater the interaction between the donor and acceptor NBOs. The stability of the studied compounds is said to follow the order from O-MPHN > PHN > P-MPHN > M-MPHN based on the hyperconjugative interaction (stabilization energy) of the most significant interaction. The result of the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO), shows that PHN has the highest HOMO while the substituted derivatives have similar HOMO values between −7.70 and −7.98 eV thus PHN complex is the best electron donor while the substituted derivatives act as electron acceptors due to the presence of methyl group substituent which is observed to be electron deficient as a result of its withdrawal effect from the aromatic ring. Furthermore, the electron density, real space functions such as energy density and Laplacian of electron density at bond critical point (BCP) of the hydrogen bond interaction of the studied compounds were analyzed using Multifunctional Wavefunction analyzer software version 3.7 and it was observed that the hydrogen at position 6 and oxygen at position 11 (H6–O11) of M-methyl pyridinium nitrate with bond distance of 4.59 (Å) gave binding energy with the strongest electrostatic interaction between the cation and anion of the compounds under investigation. We also observed from our results that, substitution at the ortho position enhances the stability and strengthen the extent of charge transfer. This therefore implies that substitution at ortho position is more favorable for inter- and intramolecular interactions resulting to stabilization of the studied molecules.
