Control of Size and Morphology of Gelatin Microspheres

Gelatin microspheres with different particle size and surface morphology were obtained through an emulsification-coacervation method in water-in-oil (W/O) emulsions. The effect of preparation parameters on the size and morphology of the gelatin microspheres was investigated, and the influence of post-treatment, including washing solvent and freeze-drying, on the surface morphology was also studied. The results showed that spherical microspheres, without aggregation phenomena and with a very smooth and uniform surface, are formed during the cross-linking process. The particle size of the gelatin microspheres increased with increasing concentration of the gelatin solution, emulsifying time, and W/O phase volume ratio; however, the particle size of the gelatin microspheres decreased with increasing concentration of the emulsifier and stirring rate. During the post-treatment process, the surface of the gelatin microspheres collapsed when dehydrated by acetone; the surface morphologies of microspheres were smoother when dehydrated by acetone/water solution with a volume ratio of 5:1 and acetone in sequence. When the obtained smooth gelatin microspheres were soaked in deionized water for 24 h and then treated by freeze-drying method for 12 h, microspheres with porous structure were obtained.     

Hydrogenation of p-chloronitrobenzene on Ni–B Nanometal Catalysts

A series of Ni–B catalysts were prepared by mixing nickel acetate in 50% ethanol/water or methanol/water solution. The solution of sodium borohydride (1 M) in excess amount to nickel was then added dropwise into the mixture to ensure full reduction of nickel cations. The mol ratio of boron to nickel in mother solution was 3 to 1. The effects of preparation conditions such as temperature, stirring speed, and sheltering gas on the particle size, surface compositions, electronic states of surface atoms and catalytic activities of the Ni–B catalysts were studied. Ranel nickel catalyst was included for comparison. These catalysts were characterized by N₂ sorption, X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The catalysts were tested for liquid phase hydrogenation of p-chloronitrobenzene. All of the catalysts prepared in this study had nanosized particles. The preparation condition has significant influence on the particle size and surface compositions of the catalyst. The Ni–B catalyst was passivated by boron; therefore it was more stable than Raney nickel and did not catch fire after exposure to air. The catalysts prepared under N₂ flow could suppress the oxidation of Ni by the dissolved oxygen in water and had metallic state of nickel. The catalyst prepared with vigorous stirring at 25°C under N₂ stream yielded the smallest particles and resulted in the highest activity. It was much more active than the Raney nickel catalyst. The reaction condition also has pronounced effect on the hydrogenation activity. Using methanol as the reaction solvent increased p-chloronitrobenzene conversion to a large extent, compared to that using ethanol as the reaction medium. The selectivity of main product (p-chloroaniline) was greater than 99% on all of the Ni–B catalysts.     

Ultrasonic-assisted sol-gel method of preparation of TiO2 nano-particles: characterization, properties and 4-chlorophenol removal application

Nano-size TiO2 photocatalysts were prepared by sol-gel and ultrasonic-assisted sol-gel methods using two different sources of ultrasonicator, i.e., a bath type and tip type. The physicochemical characteristics of the catalysts were investigated by BET, XRD and TEM analyses and the photocatalytic properties of the TiO2 catalysts prepared by three different methods were compared. The intrinsic and extrinsic properties of TiO2, such as the particle size, surface area, pore-volume, pore-diameter, crystallinity as well as anatase, rutile and brookite phase ratios, could be controlled by the ultrasonic-assisted sol-gel method. During this preparation method, the effect of such important operating variables as the ultrasonic irradiation time, power density, the ultrasonic sources (bath-type and tip-type), magnetic stirring during synthesis, initial temperatures and size of the reactors are discussed here. It was found that each of the parameters played a significant role in controlling the properties of the TiO2 nano-particles. Among the three different methods, TiO2 photocatalysts prepared by ultrasonic (tip-US) assisted sol-gel possessed the smallest particle size, highest surface area and highest pore-volume than the catalysts prepared by the other two methods. 4-Chlorophenol was used as a pollutant to observe the photocatalytic degradation ability of the prepared photocatalysts and the TiO2 catalysts prepared by the bath-US ultrasonic-assisted sol-gel method were shown to be the most highly active. This is due to their high surface area and high pore-diameter. This study clearly demonstrates the importance and advantages of ultrasonication in the modification and improvement of the photocatalytic properties of mesoporous nano-size TiO2 particles.     

Effects of Preparation Parameters on the Characteristics of NiPxBY Nanomaterials

A series of NiP _x B _y nanomaterials were prepared by a chemical reduction method under various preparation parameters. Experiment results show that the different preparation parameters affected the morphology, particle size, surface area and the composition of the sample. However, they did not influence the electronic state of nickel. The type of solution showed significant influence on the properties of the sample, whereas, the type of nickel salt did not. The particle size of NiPB, NiB, and NiP were 10–30 nm. The NiP sample prepared in the aqueous solution had the largest particle size 50–150 nm. If the solvent was 50% ethanol in water, the surface area of the sample significantly increased nine fold for NiP and four fold for NiPB powders. In contrast, the surface area of NiB did not increase. The NiPB, NiB, and NiP powders had a spherical morphology if they were prepared with aqueous solution. The NiPB prepared in 50% ethanol solution showed floss morphology and had a very high surface area.     

The effect of target size on α-Fe nanoparticle preparation by?pulsed laser ablation

Two methods of preparing Fe nanoparticles at atmospheric pressure were conducted using pulsed laser ablation of a 0.5-mm-diameter Fe wire and a bulk Fe target. Passivated α-Fe nanoparticles covered with a shell of γ-Fe₂O₃ were prepared at different process parameters. The influences of average laser power, repetition rate, pulse duration and carrier-gas pressure on the mean particle size for two laser ablation methods were investigated, respectively. The results show that the target size has a large effect on the nanoparticle preparation though we have the same range of laser process parameters. Except the carrier-gas pressure, the influence of the laser parameters on the mean particle size is almost opposite for the two laser ablation methods. Besides, the ablation mechanisms were discussed to understand the variation of mean particle sizes with target size.

Surface modification of gold nanoparticles and their monolayer behavior at the air/water interface

Gold nanoparticles were prepared by two different methods. The first method was chemically grafting the particles with different lengths of alkylthiol (C₆SH, C₁₂SH and C₁₈SH). For the second method, the Au particles were surface modified first by mercaptosuccinic acid (MSA) to render a surface with carboxylic acid groups which play a role to physically adsorb cationic surfactant in chloroform. This method was termed physical/chemical method. In the first method, the effects of alkyl chain length and dispersion solvent on the monolayer behavior of surface modified gold nanoparticles was evaluated. The gold nanoparticles prepared by 1-hexanthiol demonstrated the narrowest size distribution. Most of them showed narrower particle size distributions in chloroform than in hexane. For the physical/chemical method, the particles can spread more uniformly on the water surface which is attributed to the amphiphilic character of the particles at the air/water interface. However, the particles cannot pack closely due to the relatively weak particle-particle interaction. The effect of alkyl chain length was also assessed for the second method.     

Thermodynamic analysis of nanoparticle size effect on kinetics in Fischer–Tropsch synthesis by lanthanum promoted iron catalyst

The kinetic parameters of the Fischer–Tropsch synthesis (FTS) on iron catalyst are analyzed by size-dependent thermodynamic method. A Langmuir–Hinshelwood kinetic equation is considered for evaluation of catalytic activity of lanthanum promoted iron catalyst. A series of unsupported iron catalysts with different particle sizes were prepared via microemulsion method. The experimental results showed that catalyst activity pass from a maximum value by increasing the iron particle size. Also, data presented that iron particle size has considerable effects on adsorption parameters and FTS rates. The ratio of surface tension (σ) to nanoparticle radius (r) is important in FTS reaction on iron catalyst. Finally, the results showed that by increasing of iron particle size from 18 to 45 nm the activation energies of catalysts and heats of adsorption of catalysts as two main parameters of FTS reaction increased from 89 to 114 kJ/mol and from 51 to 71 kJ/mol, respectively.     

Local density variation of gold nanoparticles in aquatic environments

Gold (Au) nanoparticles are widely used in diagnosing cancer, imaging, and identification of therapeutic methods due to their particular quantum characteristics. This research presents different types of aqueous models and potentials used in TIP3P, to study the effect of the particle size and density of Au clusters in aquatic environments; so it can be useful to facilitate future investigation of the interaction of proteins with Au nanoparticles. The EAM potential is used to model the structure of gold clusters. It is observed that in the systems with identical gold/water density and different cluster radii, gold particles are distributed in aqueous environment almost identically. Thus, Au particles have identical local densities, and the root mean square displacement (RMSD) increases with a constant slope. However in systems with constant cluster radii and different gold/water densities, Au particle dispersion increases with density; as a result, the local density decreases and the RMSD increases with a larger slope. In such systems, the larger densities result in more blunted second peaks in gold–gold radial distribution functions, owing to more intermixing of the clusters and less FCC crystalline features at longer range, a mechanism that is mediated by the competing effects of gold–water and gold–gold interactions.     

Effect of ultrasound in enantioselective hydrogenation of 1-phenyl-1,2-propanedione: comparison of catalyst activation, solvents and supports

The enantioselective hydrogenation of 1-phenyl-1,2-propanedione was carried out over Pt/Al2O3, Pt/SiO2, Pt/SF (silica fiber), Pt/C catalysts modified with cinchonidine under ultrasonic irradiation. The initial rate, regioselectivity and enantioselectivity were investigated for different catalyst pretreatments, solvents and ultrasonic powers. The ultrasound effects were very catalyst dependent. The sonication significantly enhanced enantioselectivity and activity of the Pt/SF (silica fiber) catalyst. For the other Pt supported catalysts the reaction rate, enantioselectivity and regioselectivity increased moderately. The choice of solvent influenced the impact of ultrasound effect, namely in mesitylene, which has the lowest vapor pressure, the highest ultrasound enhancement was observed. The effect of sonication on catalysts surface was studied by transmission electron microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). No significant change in the metal particle size distribution due to sonication was observed. However, in the case of the Pt/SF catalyst, acoustic irradiation induced morphological changes on the catalyst particle surface (SEM), which might be the cause for enhancement of the initial reaction rate and enantioselectivity.
