Due to the difficulty in the selective synthesis of semiconductor (s-) and metal (m-) single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), we still need to explore the selective extraction technology of s-SWCNTs. Using Poly[9-(1-octylonoyl)-9H-carbazole-2,7-diyl] (PCz) extraction of s-SWCNTs has attracted extensive attention in recent years, because it can selective extraction of large-diameter s-SWCNTs with high purity. However, influence of the molecular weight of this polymer on the s-SWCNTs selective extraction properties remains unclear. In this study, we used PCz with different average molecular weights to study the ability of selective extraction s-SWCNTs from pristine arc discharge carbon nanotubes. Spectra studies indicate that compared to the PCz with lower molecular weight, the PCz with higher molecular weight has better selective extraction ability, and can help to obtain s-SWCNTs with higher purity (>99%) and high yield. FETs devices have been prepared by s-SWCNTs obtained via PCz with higher molecular weight exhibit higher on/off ratio, lower off current and lower subthreshold swing. This work offers a reference of the design and synthesis of PCz polymer that performs sufficient selective ability in extracting s-SWCNTs with promising applications.

The demand for large diameter gas line pipe with high yield strength and high notch toughness has led to increased research in high strength low alloy steels. Physical metallurgists have developed both a fundamental and an empirical understanding of the properties and microstructures of ferrite pearlite steels. As specifications become more rigorous, alternative microstructures (low carbon bainite or tempered bainite and martensite) are being used in line pipe. There is a definite need for metallurgists to develop a clearer understanding of the interrelationships between their properties, microstructures, and processing before these alternatives are completely accepted for use in line pipe.

ABSTRACTCarbon micro-coils and nano-coils were produced in high yield from nickel catalyst particles electrochemically deposited onto tungsten substrates. Various electrochemical deposition techniques were used to produce the nickel catalyst particles. These particles catalyzed the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of acetylene at 800°C, resulting in growth of carbon microand nano-coils. Linear-sweep (cyclic) voltammetry produced catalyst particles which resulted in single- filament coils intermixed with thin nanotubes over most of the substrate surface. Passing the same amount of charge by constant current electrolysis produced nickel particles that decomposed carbon but did not grow coils. Catalyst particles deposited by constant current electrolysis grew nanocoils similar to linear-sweep voltammetry but in small, localized, high-yield patches. The coils produced were either spring- like micro-coils of low pitch and large diameter or rope- like nano-coils of higher pitch and smaller diameter. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) showed typical graphite fringes in the filaments, but did not reveal an internal tubular structure. Catalyst particles were often detected at the ends of the coils.

Field bends in large diameter pipe are routinely used in the construction of oil and gas pipelines. Mild ripples along the intrados are often unavoidable where such bends have a high D/t or high yield strength. Present regulations and industry standards differ in their treatment of mild ripples, consequently, the acceptance of such features has been heretofore inconsistent. A review of prior work on the subject was undertaken. Shell finite element analysis was then used to estimate the effect of ripple magnitude and spacing on stresses due to pressure and bending. Stress concentration effects were used with a suitable fatigue damage rule to estimate the effect of ripple parameters on service life. Results were benchmarked against the available test data.
