Abstract: A method for quantitatively detecting hydroquinone including: using a “NaClO2—C4H13NO—Na2S4O6” CAT clock reaction system as a detection solution, wherein C4H13NO is tetramethylammonium hydroxide; recording a graph showing that a pH value in the CAT clock reaction system changes with time; obtaining the fact that the CAT clock reaction systems show different induction times to added solutions of hydroquinone with different concentrations; establishing a working curve based on a relationship between the concentrations of hydroquinone in the CAT clock reaction system and the induction times, thereby achieving a quantitative detection of the hydroquinone in a test sample.

Abstract: An optical fiber transducer usable in environments of extreme operating temperature features a stationary support, a movable body displaceable back and forth relative thereto, and an optical fiber connected between the support and the movable body. The fiber has a Fiber Bragg Grating in an intermediate region thereof between the support and movable body. To accommodate varying coefficients of thermal expansion (CTEs) among these components, one or more tubes close circumferentially around the fiber. Each tube has a CTE that is greater than that of the fiber, and less than that of the constituent material of the support and movable body. The fiber is bonded to an interior of the tube(s), while an exterior of the tube(s) is bonded to the support and movable body.
