Abstract Thermocompression bonding of copper to copper using copper nanoparticles is studied using molecular dynamics. The bonding interface formation process is investigated frst. For the bonding process, the effects of temperature and external pressure are examined. Also, we examine the grain growth at the interface. The results show that the nanoparticles with high surface energy and low compressive strength provide the active atoms to bond with copper. Pressure determining the degree of deformation of nanoparticles transfers atoms from the interior to the surface of nanoparticles and provide more surface atom to form bonds with bulk copper. While continuous pressure increase does not help bonding, higher temperature will facilitate formation of vacancies by breaking the bonds and driving the metal atoms into these vacancies. In addition, a higher temperature promotes grain growth at the interface. These behaviors indicate that using nanoparticles as a bonding layer in metal bonding can effectively reduce bonding temperature and pressure. It is necessary to select appropriate pressure at initial bonding stage and provide continuous high-temperature hold time.

The short-term effects of temperature on deammonification sludge were evaluated in a laboratory-scale sequencing batch reactor (SBR). Mathematical modeling was used for further evaluations of different intermittent aeration strategies for achieving high and stable deammonification performance at decreasing temperatures. As for the biomass cultivated at high temperatures (e.g., 30 °C), a higher temperature dependency (the adjusted Arrhenius coefficient θ for 11–17 °C = 1.71 vs. θ for 17–30 °C = 1.12) on the specific anammox growth rates was found at lower temperatures (11–17 °C) in comparison with higher temperatures (17–30 °C). Further evaluations of recovering the nitrogen removal efficiency at decreasing temperatures with the mathematical model by modifying the intermittent aeration strategies (aeration frequency (F) and the ratio (R) between non-aerated (non-aer) phase and aerated (aer) phase durations) indicated that intermittent aeration with a prolonged non-aerated phase (e.g., R ≥ 4 regardless of F value) would help to maintain high and stable deammonification performance (~80%) at decreasing temperatures (14–22 °C). Extending the non-aerated phases (increasing R) and reducing the frequency (F) of off/on phase changes have a positive effect on increasing energy savings, leading to increasing interest in this method.

In order to learn the ClO2 decay behaviour in tap water, the kinetics of ClO2 decay in pure water was studied. Under the conditions of tap water treatment and keeping away from light, the effects of temperature and pH on ClO2 degradation were investigated. The results show that the ClO2 decay reaction in pure water is the first-order with respect to ClO2, the decay rate constants increase with increase in temperature or pH. At pH=6.87, the rate constants are 0.012h-1(15°C), 0.017h-1(25°C), 0.023h-1(35°C), and 0.029h-1(45°C), respectively. At 25°C, the rate constants are 0.0083h-1(pH=4.5), 0.0111h-1(pH=5.5), 0.0143h-1(pH=6.5), 0.0222h-1(pH=7.5), and 0.0351h-1(pH=8.5), respectively. The experimental data prove that ClO2 is more stable in acidic or lower temperature water than in neutral, alkalescent, or higher temperature water.

Effects Of Temperature

Alkali lignin (AL) was used as a polyanion to form layer-by-layer self-assembled film with PDAC as a polycation. The effects of temperature and concentration on the adsorption characteristics of AL were investigated. Iodine was added into AL solutions to study the role of π-π interaction in self-assembly of AL and PDAC. Results show that the self-assembly of AL/PDAC is mainly driven by π-π interaction and electrostatic interaction. A higher temperature or a larger concentration can enhance the aggregation of lignin. I2 can form lignin–iodine charge–transfer complexes with AL to reduce the degree of aggregation of AL, so the adsorbed amount of AL decreases significantly with increasing iodine contents.

Supercapacitor require electrode which has high surface area so that it able to store large amounts of charge. In this study, electrode was synthesized from carbon of Borassus Flabellifer L fiber which was carried out through activation and carbonization processes. Raw material was calcined at 400°C for 4 hours followed by activation with NaOH 1 M. The carbonization was then conducted in Nitrogen gas flowing by temperature variations; 650°C, 750°C, and 850°C with a constant heating rate of 20 °C/min. Based on XRD data, it was shown that the material has formed Reduced graphene Oxide (RGO) which has main peaks at (2θ) 240 and 440 with higher purity in higher temperature. SEM results clarified more pores formation at higher temperature which is mesoporous. Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) test was done to determine the capacitance value. By RGO forming with high porosity, it is suitable for supercapacitor electrode application and CV test has examined that heating of Borassus Flabelifer L fiber at 850°C with 5 mV/s scan rate has the highest specific capacitance by 8.25 F/gram with Energy density is 4.125 watt/gram.

In the paper, a touch mode capacitive pressure sensor with double-notches structure is presented. The sensor employs a special SiC-AlN-SiC sandwich structure to achieve high-accuracy pressure measurement in hash environment such as high-temperature. The analysis to the relation of capacitance and external pressure of the sensor shows that the sensor has high sensitivity and long linear range simultaneously. In addition, the technical process of the sensor has been designed in detail in the paper. The research shows that the sensor packaged in a high-temperature ceramic AlN can withstand higher temperature. Consequently, the sensor can be applied in high-temperature and harsh environment.

Mesoporous TiO2 microspheres were prepared by Ultrasonic-Hydrothermal Process with tetrabutyltitanate as titanium resource and octadecylamine as template. The effects of temperature and time of hytrothermol process, and calcination temperature on the structure had been investigated via XRD,SEM,TEM.The results indicated it will be better hythrothermol treating 20h at 120°Cand then heat-treating 4h at 400°C.

Salamander Species

Differences in the larval growth of three Ambystoma salamander species that breed in close proximity to each other in space and time in north Florida were investigated under standardized regimes of controlled food levels and temperature. The order of species growth rates was as follows: Ambystoma tigrinum > A. talpoideum > A. opacum. This order is exactly the reverse of the order in which the species breed. Growth of A. talpoideum larvae was strongly dependent on temperature, whereas A. opacum larval growth was only weakly affected by temperature. Based on these growth rate differences, it is unlikely that A. talpoideum larvae could survive to metamorphosis without special behavioral mechanisms for predator avoidance in habitats with the rapidly growing predatory A. tigrinum larvae. Furthermore, A. opacum larvae would be favored in their growth over those of A. talpoideum at low temperature, while the reverse would be true at higher temperature.
