The purpose of this research was to study the effects of preparation conditions on the catalytic properties of the Co-Mo/γ-AlO catalyst. The work included catalyst preparations and reactions. In the preparations, cobalt-impregnated Mo/γ-AlO (designated as IcIM) was found to have a promoting effect on the hydrodesulfurization (HDS) of thiophene. Activity and stability of IcIM was higher than that of Mo/γ-AlO. Conversely, when cobalt was added onto Mo/γ-AlO by the mechanical mixing method, no promoting effect was observed. Mo/γ-AlO was also prepared using the two different methods (incipient impregnation or mechanical mixing). The differently prepared Mo/γ-AlO resulted in no obvious difference in activity of IcIM. It was further found that Co-Mo/γ-AlO activity initially increased appreciably with Mo content and leveled off at Mo contents above 9 wt.%. The catalyst exhibited a maximum activity at Co/Mo ratio 0.3. The order in which metal species were added had a great influence on the activity of the Co-Mo/γ-AlO catalyst. Higher activity was obtained when Co was added into Mo/γ-AlO as opposed to Mo added into Co/γ-AlO.

Dry eye disease is a multifactorial condition characterized by a loss of homeostasis of the tear film. Among the various treatment approaches, the application of ophthalmic oil-in-water nanoemulsions with incorporated anti-inflammatory drugs represents one of the most advanced approaches. However, the liquid nature of nanoemulsions limits their retention time at the ocular surface.

Periodontal disease is a major contributor to tooth loss worldwide in adults. Particularly, periodontal bone defect is a common clinical condition, yet current therapeutic strategies exhibit limited effectiveness. Recently, natural bone graft materials have attracted considerable interest for enhancing bone defect repair due to their superior biocompatibility and osteogenic capabilities.

The mechanism of radon exhalation from surrounding rock fracture has important guiding significance for radon prevention and control in underground research laboratories. The optimal ratio scheme of similar materials in the granite surrounding rock of Beishan underground laboratory was obtained by orthogonal test. The radon exhalation characteristics of fractured rock samples under dry and saturated conditions were obtained by using 10 standard joint roughness coefficient (JRC) curves.

Hypothesis: Coherent structures by low-Stokes-number particles are induced within a closed flow, in which ordered flow regions known as Kolmogorov-Arnold-Moser (KAM) tori emerge. A variety of structures with different spatial characteristics has been predicted by varying the Stokes number, whereas the coexistence of structures in flow suspending various types of particles has not been hitherto demonstrated.
Experiments: Half-zone liquid bridges of O () are prepared as a closed system to induce thermocapillary-driven time-dependent flow under normal gravity conditions.
