The Effect of pH on OH Radical Generation in Aqueous Solutions by Atmospheric Pressure Glow Discharge

Formation of hydroxyl radicals in aqueous solutions by atmospheric pressure DC glow discharge was investigated. The ferrocyanide was used as an OH scavenger at different pH. Experimental results indicated that pH effect on hydroxyl radical formation rate could be explained by particularities of [Fe(CN)₆]^4? and reactive species interaction in different media.     

Study of solvent extraction of <Superscript>114m</Superscript>In(III) using quinaldic acid into isoamyl alcohol

A complementary study of hydroxyl radical formation in the depleted uranium (DU)-hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) system and the effect of biosubstances on the system were examined using the spin-trapping method. Hydroxyl radical was formed in the uranyl ion (UO₂ ²⁺), 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline-N-oxide (DMPO), and hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) mixture solution. The pseudo first order rate constants of DMPO-OH formation were estimated to be 0.033 s⁻¹ for UO₂ ²⁺-H₂O₂-DMPO solution and 0.153 s⁻¹ for UO₂₊-H₂O₂-DMPO solution. The obtained results indicated that the hydroxyl radical formation in the UO₂ ²⁺-H₂O₂ solution could be described as a stepwise reaction process including the reduction of UO₂ ²⁺ to UO₂ ²⁺ by H₂O₂ and the Fenton-type reaction of UO₂ ⁺ with H₂O₂. Biosubstances, such as proteins, amino acids and saccharides, decreased the DMPO-OH formation, which was caused by the direct hydroxyl radical scavenging and the suppression of hydroxyl radical formation by coupling with uranyl ion.     

Atmospheric aqueous-phase photoreactivity: correlation between the hydroxyl radical photoformation and pesticide degradation rate in atmospherically relevant waters

In the present study, we investigated the correlation between the hydroxyl radical formation rate (R_˙OH) and the degradation of a pesticide (mesotrione) in synthetic cloud water solutions and in two real atmospheric cloud waters collected at the top of puy de Dôme station (France). Using terephthalic acid as the hydroxyl radical chemical probe, we established the linear correlation between the photogenerated hydroxyl radical under polychromatic wavelengths and the pesticide degradation rate: (m s^?1) = (1.61 ± 0.15) × 10^?1(m s^?1). Moreover, the formation rate of hydroxyl radical in two natural cloud waters was estimated considering H₂O₂ and NO₃^? and the difference between the predicted values and those experimentally obtained could be attributed to the presence of other photochemical sources: iron‐complexes and total organic matter. The organic constituents could play a dual role of sources and scavengers of photoformed hydroxyl radicals in the aqueous phase.     

Studies of the polymerization of diallyl compounds. XXVI. Enhanced polymerizability by the hydroxyl group in the polymerization of diallyl hydroxydicarboxylates

In order to elucidate the effect of the hydroxyl group on the polymerization of diallyl hydroxydicarboxylates, we investigated in detail the radical polymerizations of diallyl succinate (DASu), diallyl malate (DAMa), and diallyl tartrate (DATa), each of which have similar structure differing only in the number of hydroxyl groups present. The rate of polymerization (R_p) was quite enhanced in the order DASu < DAMa < DATa, in accord with the increase in the number of hydroxyl groups within a monomer unit. The enhanced ability of the allylic monomer radical to reinitiate chain growth was also in the same order, as was clear from the dependence of R_p on the initiator concentration. The dependence of the residual unsaturation of the polymer on the monomer concentration in the polymerizations of DAMa and DATa was abnormal in terms of cyclopolymerization. These results are discussed in connection with the formation of the intermolecular hydrogen bond through the hydroxyl groups.     

Reactions of hydrogen peroxide vapor dissociated in a microwave plasma

Analysis of the plasma emission from a low-pressure microwave cavity discharge through flowing hydrogen peroxide vapor showed that both H and OH were produced in proportions which varied with the applied power. When the dissociated vapor was condensed at 195 K only water was obtained; at 77 K, H₂O₂ and H₂O₄ were also obtained. Their formation could not be increased by increasing the H atom or OH radical concentration in the plasma. When the reaction time of the dissociated vapor between the plasma exit and the cold surface was increased, the rate of H₂O₂ formation increased mostly at the expense of water formation. It appears that, as in the case of the reaction of H with O₂, the rate of H₂O₂ formation is dependent on the concentration of O₂ produced in the spatial afterglow by the gas-phase reactions of the hydroxyl radicals.     

Reactivity of O2 − radical anions on hydrated ZrO2 surface

The concentration of O₂ ^? radical anions generated on the surface of hydrated ZrO₂ in an H₂O₂ solution was found to depend on H₂O₂ concentration. It was shown that this method can be used for detecting H₂O₂ in solutions at concentration as low as 0.01 wt%. The radical anions were found to react with organic molecules, even at room temperature. The decomposition kinetics of O₂ ^? radical anions was double-exponential with two reaction rate constants. The existence of two distinct rate constants suggests that two types of O₂ ^? radical anions with similar spectroscopic properties but different reactivity are present on the surface of hydrated ZrO₂. It is highly likely that different arrangements of hydroxyl groups near the radical anions account for the presence of the two types of O₂ ^? with different reactivity. The rate constants obtained in the presence of the organic compounds studied were found to conform with the expected order of reactivity: toluene > benzene ? hexane.     

Controlled assembly of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles on electrospun PU nanofibrous membrane: A novel heat-generating substrate for magnetic hyperthermia application

A facile method of fabricating novel heat-generating membranes composed of electrospun polyurethane (PU) nanofibers decorated with superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (NPs) is reported. Electrospinning was used to produce polymeric nanofibrous matrix, whereas polyol immersion technique allowed in situ assembly of well-dispersed Fe₃O₄ NPs on the nanofibrous membranes without any surfactant, and without sensitizing and stabilizing reagent. The assembly phenomena can be explained by the hydrogen-bonding interactions between the amide groups in the PU matrix and the hydroxyl groups capped on the surface of the Fe₃O₄ NPs. The prepared nanocomposite fibers showed acceptable magnetization value of 33.12 emu/g, after measuring the magnetic hysteresis loops using SQUID. Moreover, the inductive heating property of electrospun magnetic nanofibrous membranes under an alternating current (AC) magnetic field was investigated. We observed a progressive increase in the heating rate with the increase in the amount of magnetic Fe₃O₄ NPs in/on the membranes. The present electrospun magnetic nanofibrous membrane may be a potential candidate as a novel heat-generating substrate for localized hyperthermia cancer therapy.     

Silver Quantum Cluster (Ag9)‐Grafted Graphitic Carbon Nitride Nanosheets for Photocatalytic Hydrogen Generation and Dye Degradation

We report the visible‐light photocatalytic properties of a composite system consisting of silver quantum clusters [Ag₉(H₂MSA)₇] (H₂MSA=mercaptosuccinic acid) embedded on graphitic carbon nitride nanosheets (AgQCs‐GCN). The composites were prepared through a simple chemical route; their structural, chemical, morphological, and optical properties were characterized by using X‐ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, UV/Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, and photoluminescence spectroscopy. Embedment of [Ag₉(H₂MSA)₇] on graphitic carbon nitride nanosheets (GCN) resulted in extended visible‐light absorption through multiple single‐electron transitions in Ag quantum clusters and an effective electronic structure for hydroxyl radical generation, which enabled increased activity in the photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue and methyl orange dye molecules compared with pristine GCN and silver nanoparticle‐grafted GCN (AgNPs‐GCN). Similarly, the amount of hydrogen generated by using AgQCs‐GCN was 1.7 times higher than pristine GCN. However, the rate of hydrogen generated using AgQCs‐GCN was slightly less than that of AgNPs‐GCN because of surface hydroxyl radical formation. The plausible photocatalytic processes are discussed in detail.     

Features of stable radical generation in lignin on exposure to nitrogen dioxide

The mechanism of stable radical generation in lignin under the action of nitrogen dioxide and NO₂ - air mixture is considered. The formation of phenoxyl, iminoxyl and acylaminoxyl radicals has been detected by EPR. The proposed mechanism involves a primary oxidative reaction of phenol groups with dimers of NO₂ (nitrosyl nitrate) resulting in the formation of phenoxyl radicals and nitric oxide. In the subsequent recombination of phenoxyl radicals and nitric oxide, nitroso compounds and oximes are formed. By reaction of oximes with radicals NO₂, stable iminoxyl radicals are formed. This mechanism is confirmed by kinetic dependencies obtained over a wide range of NO₂ concentrations. From IR spectroscopy measurements it follows that hydroxyl groups of non-phenolic structures of lignin are oxidised to aldehydes producing acylaminoxyl radicals by reaction with NO₂. The kinetic data show that the adsorption of NO₂ on the lignin surface is the rate-determining factor in stable radical formation.     

Activated carbon cloth as adsorbent and oxidation catalyst for the removal of amitrole from aqueous solution

Removal of amitrole from water was studied by adsorption on an activated carbon cloth and by oxidation with hydrogen peroxide using the same activated carbon cloth as catalyst. Study variables included the solution pH, ionic strength, and temperature in the adsorption process and the solution pH and the surface chemistry of the activated carbon cloth in the oxidation process. Results showed that amitrole adsorption on activated carbon cloth was not adequate to remove amitrole from water due to the high solubility and low aromaticity of the herbicide, which reduced its adsorption on the carbon. A higher amitrole removal rate was obtained with the activated carbon/H₂O₂ system. The best results were obtained on basic activated carbon surfaces at pH 7–10, when hydroxyl radical formation is favored, achieving the removal of 35–45% of the AMT, compared with 20–25% under the best adsorption conditions. Importantly, oxygen fixed on the carbon surface during AMT oxidation must be removed by heat treatment in order to regenerate the surface basicity of the carbon before its reutilization in another oxidation cycle.
