Abstract In this paper, the physical adsorption characteristics of oxygen in coal pores were systematically investigated by the Grand Canonical Monte Carlo and the COMPASS force field. Firstly, coal pore structures of different sizes were constructed by graphite slit models and different groups. Secondly, the physisorption behavior of oxygen in graphite slit models of different sizes was simulated. Finally, the physisorption behavior of oxygen in graphite slit models at different pressures and temperatures was analyzed. The results showed that the physisorption density and excess physical adsorption of oxygen were divided into the rapidly decreasing stage (0.4-0.7 nm), the slowly decreasing stage (0.7-1.4 nm), and the stable stage (1.4 nm-5 nm) with the increase of coal pores, and the excess oxygen physisorption amount was more sensitive to the change of pressure. The O2 isosteric heat of physisorption decreased with increasing pore size of coal. Oxygen is more strongly adsorbed by hydroxyl and ether bonds than by methyl, carboxyl and carbonyl groups. Through this study, the mechanism of oxygen physical adsorption in coal pores and the characteristics influenced by temperature and pressure can be better understood.

Material characterisation through adsorption is a widely-used laboratory technique. The isotherms obtained through volumetric or gravimetric experiments impart insight through their features but can also be analysed to determine material characteristics such as specific surface area, pore size distribution, surface energetics, or used for predicting mixture adsorption. The pyGAPS (python General Adsorption Processing Suite) framework was developed to address the need for high-throughput processing of such adsorption data, independent of the origin, while also being capable of presenting individual results in a user-friendly manner. It contains many common characterisation methods such as: BET and Langmuir surface area, t and α plots, pore size distribution calculations (BJH, Dollimore-Heal, Horvath-Kawazoe, DFT/NLDFT kernel fitting), isosteric heat calculations, IAST calculations, isotherm modelling and more, as well as the ability to import and store data from Excel, CSV, JSON and sqlite databases. In this work, a description of the capabilities of pyGAPS is presented. The code is then be used in two case studies: a routine characterisation of a UiO-66(Zr) sample and in the processing of an adsorption dataset of a commercial carbon (Takeda 5A) for applications in gas separation.

The purpose of this research was to investigate physical properties, configuration and color of topaz. Topazes were irradiated with electron beam linear accelerator at different dose from 40 to 180 MGy. The color of topaz was analyzed by UV-vis and it was shown that the color of topaz was becoming strong color with increased electron beam dose. Crystal structure and function group of topaz were characterized by X- ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The results showed that the topaz has orthorhombic structure and no other crystalline. After irradiated, topaz released OH indicating higher crystallinity of topaz and this was confirmed with the results of electron spin resonance (ESR). Electron beam dose response of topaz was investigated. ESR results showed that the Al3+ ion was substituted in Si4+ site and Ti3+ impurity in Al4+ site and this result corresponds to the results of FTIR. The experiment result indicated that electron beam could be making defect on crystal structure and color enhancement of topaz.

Non-enzymic damage to nuclear proteins has potentially severe consequences for the maintenance of genomic integrity. Introduction of carbonyl groups into histones in vivo and in vitro was assessed by Western blot immunoassay and reductive incorporation of tritium from radiolabelled NaBH4 (sodium borohydride). Histone H1 extracted from bovine thymus, liver and spleen was found to contain significantly elevated amounts of protein-bound carbonyl groups as compared with core histones. The carbonyl content of nuclear proteins of rat pheochromocytoma cells (PC12 cells) was not greatly increased following oxidative stress induced by H2O2, but was significantly increased following alkylating stress induced by N-methyl-N´-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine or by combined oxidative and alkylating stress. Free ADP-ribose, a reducing sugar generated in the nucleus in proportion to DNA strand breaks, was shown to be a potent histone H1 carbonylating agent in isolated PC12 cell nuclei. Studies of the mechanism of histone H1 modification by ADP-ribose indicate that carbonylation involves formation of a stable acyclic ketoamine. Our results demonstrate preferential histone H1 carbonylation in vivo, with potentially important consequences for chromatin structure and function.

AbstractWe report Canonical (NVTMC), Grand Canonical (GOMC) and Gibbs Ensemble Monte Carlo (GEMC) simulations for adsorption of methane on graphite. Lennard-Jones (LJ) potentials are used for the intermolecular interactions, and both structured and structureless (10–4–3) solid-fluid potentials are considered. Several sets of methane-methane L.I parameters have been used in the literature, and we compare results obtained with these sets throughout our simulations. The adsorption isotherm and isosteric heat curve are obtained at 77.5 K and found in good agreement with experiments. The commensurateincommensurate transition (CIT) of methane on a graphite substrate with periodically varying adsorbate-adsorbent potential at 40.0 K is studied and is in qualitative agreement with experiment. The effect of varying the corrugation of the fluid-wall potential on the commensurate and incommensurate phases is explored. The GEMC simulations have been carried out to study the vapor-liquid equilibrium (VLE) of a two-dimensional (2D) LJ fluid with system sizes up to 3000 particles. The effect of system sizes on the critical behavior is investigated. The GEMC method has also been successfully applied to study the VLE in 2D adsorbed films for the first time.
