ABSTRACTIn situ 57Fe Mössbauer spectra are reported for the first-, higher-stage ferric chloride, and a mixed ferric chloride-potassium chloride intercalated graphite catalysts under reduction and Fischer-Tropsch reaction conditions. The mass spectroscopic measurements reveal a different catalytic selectivity for the three catalysts. The first two catalysts predominantly possess a higher selectivity for methane, whereas the third catalyst has higher selectivity for the formation of propane. The differences are attributed to geometrical effects in the catalytic sites of the intercalated compounds.

ABSTRACTIndividual graphite fibers (TP 4104B and GY-70) were intercalated with alkali metals using the two-zone vapor transport method commonly used to prepare alkali metal intercalated graphite. The progress of the reaction was followed in situ by measuring the electrical resistances of the fibers as the temperature difference (ΔT) between the fiber and the metal was decreased stepwise. These measurements showed that the ease and extent of intercalation are related to fiber graphitization. Without exposure to air, the temperature dependence of the resistances of the intercalated fibers were also measured from −196°C to 400°C. The measurements showed that the intercalated fibers have a metallic dependence on temperature. Tensile strength measurements on the intercalated fibers showed that intercalation of the heavy alkali metals is deleterious.

The Polyaniline-poly(vinyl alcohol)-intercalated graphite oxide (GO) composites were synthesized through in-situ polymerization methods. The characterizations were illuminated by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), cyclic voltammetry(CV) and thermal analysis(TGA), respectively. TGA shows that composites have stable thermal properties. CV curves show charge-transport processes within the film are diffusion-controlled. The new composites reveal the potential application in the future.

ABSTRACTA mission to rendezvous with the rings of Saturn is studied with regard to science rationale and instrumentation and engineering feasibility and design. Future detailedin situexploration of the rings of Saturn will require spacecraft systems with enormous propulsive capability. NASA is currently studying the critical technologies for just such a system, called Nuclear Electric Propulsion (NEP). Electric propulsion is the only technology which can effectively provide the required total impulse for this demanding mission. Furthermore, the power source must be nuclear because the solar energy reaching Saturn is only 1% of that at the Earth. An important aspect of this mission is the ability of the low thrust propulsion system to continuously boost the spacecraft above the ring plane as it spirals in toward Saturn, thus enabling scientific measurements of ring particles from only a few kilometers.
