The indexes of mechanical performance, apparent density, thermal stability and aging resistance were separately tested for the prepared PU foams. The results show that the mechanical property, thermal insulation and thermal stability for PU foam with modified alkali lignin are excellent among two kinds of PU foams and control samples. The additions of the refined alkali lignin and modified alkali lignin to PU foam have little effect on the natural aging or heat aging resistance except for decreasing hot alkali resistance apparently. Additionally, the thermal conductivity of modified alkali lignin PU foam is lowest among two kinds of PU foams and control samples. The alkali lignin PU foam modified by 3-chloro-1,2-epoxypropane could be applied in the heat preservation field.展开更多

TA-AL was characterized by FT-IR,zeta potential,SEM,and elemental analysis. Kinetic and equilibrium adsorption isotherms were determined to investigate the adsorption capacity of TAAL. The results revealed that TA-AL had a very strong adsorption capacity towards anions; the value of p HPZC( PZC,point of zero charge) was about 9. 2.The adsorption of nitrate and phosphate ions was related to effluent p H and initial anion concentration. The maximum absorption of nitrate and phosphate ions was about 26. 9 and 18. 4 mg / g when the initial concentration of the ions was 50 mg / L. The adsorption kinetics conformed to the pseudo-second-order kinetic equation,and the equilibrium data were suitably expressed by the Freundlich model. The regeneration studies confirmed that the lignin-based material was a promising adsorbent for nitrate and phosphate ions in water.展开更多
