Sodium polyacrylate was synthesized with acrylic acid as the monomer, and sodium bisulfate and ammonium persulfate as the initiator, by means of aqueous solution polymerization. The factors influencing the properties of moisture absorption, such as monomer concentration, dosage of initiator, and reaction temperature were systematically investigated. The experimental results indicate that the moisture-absorbing property of this polymer was better than other traditional material, such as silica gel, and molecular sieve. The best reaction condition and formula are based on the orthogonal experiment design. The optimum moisture absorbency of sodium polyacrylate reaches 1.01 g/g. The mathematical correlation of this polymer with various factors and moisture absorbency is obtained based on the multiple regression analysis. The moisture content intuitive analysis table shows that neutralization degree has the most significant influence on moisture absorbency, followed by monomer concentration and reaction temperature, while other factors have less influence. moisture absorption, sodium polyacrylate, aqueous solution polymerization, orthogonal experiment
Array acoustic logging plays an important role in formation evaluation. Its data is a non-linear and non-stationary signal and array acoustic logging signals have time-varying spectrum characteristics. Traditional fi ltering methods are inadequate. We introduce a HilbertHuang transform (HHT) which makes full preservation of the non-linear and non-stationary characteristics and has great advantages in the acoustic signal fi ltering. Using the empirical mode decomposition (EMD) method, the acoustic log waveforms can be decomposed into a fi nite and often small number of intrinsic mode functions (IMF). The results of applying HHT to real array acoustic logging signal fi ltering and de-noising are presented to illustrate the effi ciency and power of this new method.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
