In the present work, the impact of the rhodium deposition on the thermal stability of ceria-based catalysts was studied. The samples were prepared by an incipient wetness impregnation of the support with aqueous solution of rhodium nitrate. The loading of Rh was 0.1 and 1 wt.%. The textural characteristics of the samples were examined by a low-temperature nitrogen adsorption. It was shown that the addition of rhodium intensifies the process of ceria agglomeration, which leads to the lower values of specific surface area along with increased average pore diameter after the aging at 1000 °C. Stability of the catalysts was investigated by means of a prompt thermal aging procedure. The high-loaded catalyst (1 wt.% Rh/CeO2) was more active than the 0.1 wt.% Rh/CeO2sample, while the stability of both the catalysts was excellent. It should be emphasized that the alumina-based reference samples with the similar rhodium loading were significantly less active and poorly stable.

Intrinsic thermal stability denotes a situation where a superconductor can carry the operating current without resistance at all times after the occurrence of a localized release of thermal energy. This novel stability criterion is different from the cryogenic stability criteria for magnets and has particular relevance to thin-film superconductors. Crystals of ceramic high-temperature superconductors are likely to exhibit anisotropic thermal conductivity. The resultant anisotropy of highly oriented films of superconductors greatly influences their thermal stability. This work presents an analysis for the maximum operating current density that ensures intrinsic stability. The stability criterion depends on the amount of released energy, the Biot number, the aspect ratio, and the ratio of the thermal conductivities in the plane of the film and normal to it.

AbstractThe stability of compressive residual stresses generated by deep rolling plays a decisive role on the fatigue behavior of specimens and components, respectively. In this regard, deep rolling at elevated temperature has proven to be very effective in stabilizing residual stresses when fatigue analysis is conducted at ambient temperature. However, since residual stresses can be affected not only by plastic deformation but also when thermal energy is provided, it is necessary to analyze the influence of temperature and time on the relaxation behavior of residual stresses at elevated temperature. To evaluate the effect of deep rolling at elevated temperatures on stability limits under thermal as well as combined thermo-mechanical loads, the present work introduces and discusses the results of investigations on the thermal stability of residual stresses in differently deep rolled material conditions of the steel SAE 1045.

In order to obtain highly dispersed heteropolyacids (HPAs) species, H3PMo12O40 and H4PVMo11O40 were supported on various supports: silica (Aerosil - Degussa and Romsil types) and TiO2. The structure and thermal decomposition of supported and unsupported HPAs were followed by different techniques (TGA-DTA, FTIR, XRD, low temperature nitrogen adsorption, scanning electron microscopy). All the supported HPAs were prepared by impregnation using the incipient wetness technique with a 1:1 mixture of water-ethanol. Samples were prepared with different concentrations to examine the effect of loading on the thermal behavior of the supported acid catalysts. The thermal stability was evaluated with reference to the bulk solid acids and mechanical mixtures. After deposition on silica types supports, an important decrease in thermal stability was observed on the Romsil types and a small decrease on the Aerosil type. The stability of the heteropolyacids supported on titania increased due to an anion-support interaction, as the thermal decomposition proceeded in two steps. The structure of the HPAs was not totally destroyed at 450 ?C as some IR bands were still preserved. A relatively uniform distribution of HPAs on the support surface was observed for all compositions of the active phase. No separate crystallites of solid phase HPAs were found in the SEM images.

This paper aimed to evaluate the changes in the thermal stability of goat milk, cow milk and homogenized milk under different pH conditions. The results showed that goat milk was of type B milk, and the thermal stability were positively correlated with the pH value. But cow milk was of type A milk, the most stable pH of fresh milk was 6.9, while it was 6.7 for homogenized cow milk. Compared with cow milk, the acidification of goat milk was stronger due to heat. Therefore, in the process of milk production, the germicidal heating conditions of two different milk sources should be determined according to their thermal stability.

AbstractWe present a study of the structural stability of InGaAs/GaAs strained single quantum wells (SQW) grown with a variety of indium compositions and with well widths close to critical thickness values. The samples were grown by molecular beam epitaxy and were subjected to furnace annealing as well as ion implantation followed by rapid thermal annealing. Changes in low temperature photoluminescence linewidths were used to evaluate the stability of strained SQWs. We observed both strain relief, in wide SQWs and strain recovery, in higher indium composition narrow quantum wells which were partially relaxed (low dislocation density) as-grown.

ABSTRACTThe stability of the magnetic properties of dehydrogenated triaryl-methane resins was investigated both at room temperature and at elevated temperatures. A magnetic property different from that reported in a previous paper was found in the course of studying the reproducibility of synthesis. This new property was examined through a mechanical response of the resins to a set of permanent magnets.

Thermal oxidation of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) fibers was accomplished at temperatures up to 250°C for different oxidation times. Chemical integration of PAN fibers with an aqueous solution of ammonium persulfate was performed before starting thermal oxidation. The results recommend that ammonium persulfate integration enhanced the oxidation reactions of the PAN fibers and resulting in enhanced thermal stability. Ammonium persulfate impregnation followed by the oxidation process in the air environment leads to significant deviations in the characteristics of PAN fibers. To perform structural characterization of the raw and ammonium persulfate (APS) incorporated and stabilized samples, XRD, IR-spectroscopy, TGA was executed in this study. Investigation of the XRD and infrared spectroscopy outcomes recommended quick aromatization reactions with growing oxidation periods. The TGA traces indicated a comparative enhancement in the thermal stability of the PAN fibers by the increased carbon yield with the rise of the oxidation time. The overall findings recommend that ammonium persulfate incorporation was very influential in stimulating the oxidation process.

The thermal stability of individual glucosinolates within five different Brassica vegetables was studied at 100°C for different incubation times up to 120 minutes. Three vegetables that were used in this study were <I>Brassica oleracea</I> (red cabbage, broccoli and Brussels sprouts) and two were <I>Brassica rapa</I> (pak choi and Chinese cabbage). To rule out the influence of enzymatic breakdown, myrosinase was inactivated prior to the thermal treatments. The stability of three glucosinolates that occurred in all five vegetables (gluconapin, glucobrassicin and 4-methoxyglucobrassicin) varied considerably between the different vegetables. The degradation could be modeled by first order kinetics. The rate constants obtained varied between four to twenty fold between the five vegetables. Brussels sprouts showed the highest degradation rates for all three glucosinolates. The two indole glucosinolates were most stable in red cabbage, while gluconapin was most stable in broccoli. These results indicate the possibilities for plant breeding to select for cultivars in which glucosinolates are more stable during processing.

β-carotene is a promising natural active ingredient for optimum human health. However, the insolubility in water, low oral bioavailability, and instability in oxygen, heat, and light are key factors to limit its application as incorporation into functional foods. Therefore, gliadin nanoparticles (GNPs) Pickering emulgels were chosen as food-grade β-carotene delivery systems. The objectives of the present study were to investigate the influence of GNPs concentration on the rheological properties, stability, and simulated gastrointestinal fate of β-carotene of Pickering emulgels. The formulations of Pickering emulgels at low GNPs concentration had better fluidity, whereas at high GNPs concentration, they had stronger gel structures. Furthermore, the thermal stability of β-carotene loaded in Pickering emulgels after two pasteurization treatments was significantly improved with the increase of GNPs concentration. The Pickering emulgels stabilized with higher GNPs concentration could improve the protection and bioaccessibility of β-carotene after different storage conditions. This study demonstrated the tremendous potential of GNPs Pickering emulgels to carry β-carotene.
