掺钇锆酸锶-TiO2复合光催化剂的制备及性能研究

SrZrO₃ particles were prepared by a co-precipitation method and Sr(Zr_1-xY_x)O_3-δ -TiO₂ composite particles were then synthesized by Sr(Zr_1-xY_x)O_3-δ and titanium dioxide. The composite particles were characterized by XRD, SEM, FTIR and TG-DTA techniques. The photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue (MB) in aqueous solution was used as a probe reaction to evaluate the photocatalytic activity of the composite particles. The effect of the preparation method for SrZrO₃, doping content of yttrium and TiO₂ amount in the composite particles on the photocatalytic activity of composite particles was also discussed. The results show that the methylene blue solution could be completely degraded by Sr(Zr_1-xY_x)O_3-δ -TiO₂ composite particles under UV-light or visible light irradiation. The photocatalytic activity of composite particles was higher than that of pure TiO₂. The fast recombination of photogenerated electrons and holes were restrained by the heterojunction formed in composite particles. The particle of SrZrO₃ prepared by co-precipitation was small, and the photocatalytic activity of composite particles prepared from this kind of SrZrO₃ was higher than that of particles prepared by solid sintering method. The best doping content of yttrium is 5%. The optimal content of TiO₂ in composite particles is 90wt%, 70wt%, respectively under UV-light and visible light irradiation, the degradation rates of MB are 98.8% and 93.5% , respectively after 50 min irradiation.     

微乳法制备纳米TiO2 /SiO2的结构及光催化研究

Nanosized TiO₂ and TiO₂/SiO₂ particles were prepared by hydrolysis of tetrabutyl titanate (TBOT) and tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) in the TX-100 reverse microemulsion. These particles were characterized by TG-DSC, XRD, FTIR, TEM，N₂ adsorption-desorption. Their photocatalytic activity was tested by degradation of methyl orange. The result shows that TiO₂/SiO₂ nanoparticles are with a monodispersed spherical phase and a uniform size distribution，and TiO₂ particles are dispersed on the surface of SiO₂. The band for Ti-O-Si vibration in FTIR was observed, the Ti-O-Si bond increased the stability of anatase TiO₂, suppressed the phase transformation of titania from anatase to rutile. And due to the addition of SiO₂, the average size of titania decreased from 38 nm in pure TiO₂ to 5 nm in TiO₂/SiO₂. It was found, under UV light irradiation, TiO₂/SiO₂ particles showed higher activity than pure TiO₂, and TiO₂/SiO₂(1/1) particles showed the highest photocatalytic activity on the photocatalytic decomposition of methyl orange, which was influenced by crystal structure, particle size, crystallinity and Surface area Characteristics.     

N 掺杂TiO2光催化剂的制备及其可见光活性研究

A visible-light-active photocatalyst was prepared by calcination of the hydrolysis product of tetrabutyl titanate with ammonia as precipitant. The photocatalyst was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-Vis diffuse reflection spectra (DRS), thermal gravimetric-differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscope (SEM). The color of the photocatalyst was yellow and could absorb light wavelength under 550 nm as measured by DRS. The catalyst calcined at higher temperature will give lower absorbance for visible light. Structures of the sample were characterized mainly to be anatase by XRD except for the sample calcined at 700 ℃ which gave mixtures of anatase and rutile. TG-DTA results showed that temperature for anatase formation was 415 ℃. XPS results showed that doped-nitrogen was presented in the sample, they are important to show visible-light absorbency. The photocatalytic activities were evaluated using methyl orange and phenol as model pollutants, the results showed that over 90% of phenol could be degraded under visible light using N/TiO₂ as the catalyst after 4 hours reaction. Almost the same activity was found for the TiO₂ photocatalyst calcined at different temperature under sunlight but activities were different when the treatment was under UV light.     

TiO2胶粒在铝合金表面的电泳沉积及所制薄膜的光催化性能研究

TiO₂ membranes were prepared on aluminum-alloy thin plates by electrophoretic deposition and dip coating in a colloid solution of TiO₂, respectively. The photocatalytic activity of TiO₂ membrane was compared using ethylene as reactant, and the crystal and morphological structure of the membrane were characterized by XRD and SEM. The results showed that a more compact membrane with high loading of TiO₂ but lower photocatalytic activity of unit TiO₂ mass was obtained by electrophoresis compared with dip coating method. The addition of polyethylene glycol (PEG) to the sol of TiO₂ could improve the specific photocatalytic activity (ethylene conversion per unit mass TiO₂ and unit area of membrane piece) of the electrophoresis-membrane prepared from the sol, but could not change the specific photocatalytic activity of the dip-coating membrane from the sol. The ethylene conversion on the electrophoresis membrane prepared from the sol containing PEG (50 g·L^-1) was 9 times of that on the dip coating membrane. The effect of PEG on the properties of electrophoresis-membrane of TiO₂ was attributed to the change of electrokinetic properties of sol. Addition of PEG decreased ζ potential value of the sol and the mobility of the sol particle, increased viscidity of the colloid, thus decreasing both the electrophoresis deposition velocity of colloid particles and the electroosmosis velocity of diffuse layer of colloid particles. These favored the formation of a low compact and porous membrane on the electrode in electric field, and thus increasing the availability of TiO₂ in photocatalytic process.     

锐钛矿型TiO2水溶胶的低温制备及其表征

Anatase titanium dioxide hydrosol was prepared at low temperature by a simple method. The title material was characterized by TEM, XRD, FTIR and BET, respectively. The photocatalytic activity of the as-prepared TiO₂ was evaluated by the degradation of methyl orange solution under sunlight and the photocatalytic oxidation of acetone in air. The results showed that the titanium dioxide hydrosol was composed of anatase phase with average grain size of about 7 nm, and the crystallinity became more perfect with the increase of temperature. The BET surface areas were more than 220 m²·g^-1 for these samples. It is found that the photocatalytic activity was much better for the higher heat processing temperature. Especially, the photocatalytic activity of the sample with a heat treatment of 110 ℃ was better than that of P25. In addition, TiO₂ hydrosol also possessed good photocatalytic activity under the sunlight illumination.     

TiO2纳米管负载Ag、Au、Pt纳米粒子的微波合成与表征(英)

TiO₂ nanotubes were prepared under normal pressure at a temperature of 120 ℃. Ag, Au, Pt nanoparticles supported on TiO₂ nanotubes were prepared by microwave assisted heating polyol process. TEM images showed that microwave prepared Ag, Au, Pt nanoparticles supported on TiO₂ nanotubes were small and well dispersed on the surface of the TiO₂ nanotubes. UV-Vis absorption spectra showed that the absorbance of Ag/TiO₂ nanotubes and Au/TiO₂ nanotubes in the visible light range increased greatly compared to the single titania nanotubes.

The N/TiO₂ was prepared by wet hydrolyzation method. The photocatalytic decomposition of benzoic acid solution was carried out under simulated sun light; the photocatalytic activity was 2.47 times of TiO₂. The products were characterized by XRD, SPS, EFISPS and XPS, respectively. The results of XRD showed that the N could restrain the crystallization transformation of TiO₂ from anatase to rutile. The N/TiO₂ was still n-type semiconductor, and the absorbance wavelength appeared red-shifted by N-doping. The band gap of N/TiO₂ was decreased to 2.7 eV. The amount of doped-N is about 0.94at.%. The binding energy of N1s are 396.62 eV (Ti-N bonds, β-N) and 400.87 eV (N-N bonds, γ-N₂), respectively, and the photocatalytic activity of N/TiO₂ under visible light is related to the β-N. The N atoms replace the O of the TiO₂ and form the Ti-N bonding.     

有机体系中纳米TiO2 / ZrO2修饰电极的制备及电催化活性

The complexes Ti(OCH₂CH₂O)₂ and Zr(OCH₂CH₂O)₂ were directly synthesized by using HOCH₂CH₂OH dissolution in 50 mL flask. The nano-ZrO₂ / TiO₂ powders were prepared by a direct sol-gel synthesis using the above solution and followed by drying at 400 ℃ for 2 h. The complexes were characterized by FTIR and ¹H NMR. XRD and TEM were used to investigate the structure of nano-ZrO₂ / TiO₂. The results show that the complexes containing ^-OCH₂CH₂O^- group could prevent the precursor from agglomeration and sintering during the hydrolysis and calcination process. The ZrO₂ / TiO₂ powders of 20～35 nm was thus obtained in a high purity. The highly active nano-ZrO₂ / TiO₂ modified electrode was prepared by using daubing and calcination. The electro-catalytic activities of this electrode in (COOH)₂ were investigated. The discharge current of nano-ZrO₂ / TiO₂ electrode increased obviously. In preparative electrolysis under optimal conditions, the average yield and current efficiency for HOOC-CHO were 84.7% and 91.6 %, respectively.     

Nafion? / TiO2复合膜的质子传导性能研究

Nafion^® / TiO₂ composite membranes were prepared by in-situ chemical reaction method using Ti(OC₄H₉)₄ and Nafion^® 117 as raw materials. The membranes were characterized by UV, FTIR-ATR and XRD, respectively. Methanol permeability and water uptake were investigated as a function of TiO₂ contents. The conductivity of the membranes was measured under water vapor pressure (2.644 7 kPa) or in dry atmospheres. The XRD results showed that the titanium dioxide in Nafion^® membranes were crystallized in anatase phase with an average crystaline diameter of 3.0 nm. The water uptake of the composite membranes was larger than that of the pure Nafion^® membrane when the TiO₂ loading was within 14wt%. The methanol permeability of the membrane decreased as the TiO₂ loading increased. The addition of 3wt% TiO₂ to Nafion^® membranes improved the conductivity in dry measurement conditions. The proton conductivity of the composite membrane increased greatly after the hydrothermal treatment at 160 ℃ for 2 hours.     

可见光催化剂S/TiO2的制备与表征

The sulfur-doped titanium dioxide (S/TiO₂) was prepared by calcinations. The photocatalytic decomposition of benzoic acid solution was carried out under simulated sun light; the photocatalytic activity is 2.7 times of TiO₂. The results of XRD show that the sulfur can restrain the crystallization transformation of TiO₂ from anatase to rutile, although the calcinations temperature has attained 500 ℃, the crystallization still is anatase entirely. The responsive wavelength range of S/TiO₂ was shifted; it has obvious absorption in the region from 320 to 550 nm. The S (S⁶⁺) substituted for some of the lattice titanium atoms in S/TiO₂. At the same time the XRF also prove the formation of S⁶⁺ and the atomic content is 2.13%.     

Sol-gel synthesis of K3InF6 and structural characterization of K2InC10O10H6F9, K3InC12O14H4F18 and K3InC12O12F18

K₃InF₆ is synthesized by a sol-gel route starting from indium and potassium acetates dissolved in isopropanol in the stoichiometry 1:3, with trifluoroacetic acid as fluorinating agent. The crystal structures of the organic precursors were solved by X-ray diffraction methods on single crystals. Three organic compounds were isolated and identified: K₂InC₁₀O₁₀H₆F₉, K₃InC₁₂O₁₄H₄F₁₈ and K₃InC₁₂O₁₂F₁₈. The first one, deficient in potassium in comparison with the initial stoichiometry, is unstable. In its crystal structure, acetate as well as trifluoroacetate anions are coordinated to the indium atom. The two other precursors are obtained, respectively, by quick and slow evaporation of the solution. They correspond to the final organic compounds, which give K₃InF₆ by decomposition at high temperature. The crystal structure of K₃InC₁₂O₁₄H₄F₁₈ is characterized by complex anions [In(CF₃COO)₄(OH_x)₂]^(5−2x)− and isolated [CF₃COOH_2−x]^(x−1)− molecules with x=2 or 1, surrounded by K⁺ cations. The crystal structure of K₃InC₁₂O₁₂F₁₈ is only constituted by complex anions [In(CF₃COO)₆]³⁻ and K⁺ cations. For all these compounds, potassium cations ensure only the electroneutrality of the structure. IR spectra of K₂InC₁₀O₁₀H₆F₉ and K₃InC₁₂O₁₂F₁₈ were also performed at room temperature on pulverized crystals.     

Li2O-TiO2-SiO2-P2O5和Li2O-TiO2-Al2O3-P2O5体系锂离子固体电解质的制备及性能研究

一些具有NASICON型网格结构的固体电解质具有高的电导率和好的稳定性,NASICON的意思是Na Super Ionic Conductor[1]。当NaZr2(PO4)3中P5 被Si4 部分取代时便可以得到具有NASICON结构的Na1 xZr2SixP3-xO12体系,其具有高的钠离子电导率。然而有相同结构的Li1 xZr2SixP3-xO12体系的离子电导率却很低,这是因为Li 半径太小,而NASICON三维网格结构的离子通道太大,两者不匹配而使电导率下降[2]。但当LiZr2(PO4)3中Zr4 被离子半径小些的Ti4 取代,所得LiTi2(PO4)3的通道就与Li 半径相匹配,适合于锂离子的迁移,从而使其电导率…     

Non-centrosymmetric Ba3Ti3O6(BO3)2

The compound previously reported as Ba₂Ti₂B₂O₉ has been reformulated as Ba₃Ti₃B₂O₁₂, or Ba₃Ti₃O₆(BO₃)₂, a new barium titanium oxoborate. Small single crystals have been recovered from a melt with a composition of BaTiO₃:BaTiB₂O₆ (molar ratio) cooled between 1100°C and 850°C. The crystal structure has been determined by X-ray diffraction: hexagonal system, non-centrosymmetric space group, a=8.7377(11) Å, c=3.9147(8) Å, Z=1, wR(F²)=0.039 for 504 unique reflections. Ba₃Ti₃O₆(BO₃)₂ is isostructural with K₃Ta₃O₆(BO₃)₂. Preliminary measurements of nonlinear optical properties on microcrystalline samples show that the second harmonic generation efficiency of Ba₃Ti₃O₆(BO₃)₂ is equal to 95% of that of LiNbO₃.     

Ion-beam irradiation of lanthanum compounds in the systems La2O3-Al2O3 and La2O3-TiO2

Thin crystals of La₂O₃, LaAlO₃, La_2/3TiO₃, La₂TiO₅, and La₂Ti₂O₇ have been irradiated in situ using 1 MeV Kr²⁺ ions at the Intermediate Voltage Electron Microscope-Tandem User Facility (IVEM-Tandem), Argonne National Laboratory (ANL). We observed that La₂O₃ remained crystalline to a fluence greater than 3.1×10¹⁶ ions cm⁻² at a temperature of 50 K. The four binary oxide compounds in the two systems were observed through the crystalline-amorphous transition as a function of ion fluence and temperature. Results from the ion irradiations give critical temperatures for amorphisation (T_c) of 647 K for LaAlO₃, 840 K for La₂Ti₂O₇, 865 K for La_2/3TiO₃, and 1027 K for La₂TiO₅. The T_c values observed in this study, together with previous data for Al₂O₃ and TiO₂, are discussed with reference to the melting points for the La₂O₃-Al₂O₃ and La₂O₃-TiO₂ systems and the different local environments within the four crystal structures. Results suggest that there is an observable inverse correlation between T_c and melting temperature (T_m) in the two systems. More complex relationships exist between T_c and crystal structure, with the stoichiometric perovskite LaAlO₃ being the most resistant to amorphisation.     

Synthesis, crystal structure, infrared and Raman spectra of Sr4Cu3(AsO4)2(AsO3OH)4·3H2O and Ba2Cu4(AsO4)2(AsO3OH)3

The two new compounds, Sr₄Cu₃(AsO₄)₂(AsO₃OH)₄·3H₂O (1) and Ba₂Cu₄(AsO₄)₂(AsO₃OH)₃(2), were synthesized under hydrothermal conditions. They represent previously unknown structure types and are the first compounds synthesized in the systems SrO/BaO-CuO-As₂O₅-H₂O. Their crystal structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction [space group C2/c, a=18.536(4) Å, b=5.179(1) Å, c=24.898(5) Å, β=93.67(3)°, V=2344.0(8) Å³, Z=4 for 1; space group P4₂/n, a=7.775(1) Å, c=13.698(3) Å, V=828.1(2) Å³, Z=2 for 2]. The crystal structure of 1 is related to a group of compounds formed by Cu²⁺-(XO₄)³⁻ layers (X=P⁵⁺, As⁵⁺) linked by M cations (M=alkali, alkaline earth, Pb²⁺, or Ag⁺) and partly by hydrogen bonds. In 1, worth mentioning is the very short hydrogen bond length, D···A=2.477(3) Å. It is one of the examples of extremely short hydrogen bonds, where the donor and acceptor are crystallographically different. Compound 2 represents a layered structure consisting of Cu₂O₈ centrosymmetric dimers crosslinked by As1φ₄ tetrahedra, where φ is O or OH, which are interconnected by Ba, As2 and hydrogen bonds to form a three-dimensional network. The layers are formed by Cu₂O₈ centrosymmetric dimers of CuO₅ edge-sharing polyhedra, crosslinked by As1O₄ tetrahedra. Vibrational spectra (FTIR and Raman) of both compounds are described. The spectroscopic manifestation of the very short hydrogen bond in 1, and ABC-like spectra in 2 were discussed.     

A new 2212-type stair like structure: Bi14Sr21Fe12O61, m=5 member of the generic [Bi2Sr3Fe2O9]m[Bi4Sr6Fe2O16] family

A new oxide, Bi₁₄Sr₂₁Fe₁₂O_61, with a layered structure derived from the 2212 modulated type structure Bi₂Sr₃Fe₂O₉, was isolated. It crystallizes in the I2 space group, with the following parameters: a=16.58(3) Å, b=5.496(1) Å, c=35.27(2) Å and β=90.62°. The single crystal X-ray structure determination, coupled with electron microscopy, shows that this ferrite is the m=5 member of the [Bi₂Sr₃Fe₂O₉]_m[Bi₄Sr₆Fe₂O₁₆] collapsed family. This new collapsed structure can be described as slices of 2212 structure of five bismuth polyhedra thick along , shifted with respect to each other and interconnected by means of [Bi₄Sr₆Fe₂O₁₆] slices. The latter are the place of numerous defects like iron or strontium for bismuth substitution; they can be correlated to intergrowth defects with other members of the family.     

Raman scattering investigations on lanthanum-doped Bi4Ti3O12-SrBi4Ti4O15 intergrowth ferroelectrics

The ferroelectric ceramics of Bi₄Ti₃O₁₂, SrBi₄Ti₄O₁₅, and lanthanum-doped Bi₄Ti₃O₁₂-SrBi₄Ti₄O₁₅ were synthesized, and their Raman spectra were investigated. La-doping resulted in the enlargement of remnant polarization of Bi₄Ti₃O₁₂-SrBi₄Ti₄O₁₅. The structure of the Bi₂O₂ layers and TiO₆ octahedra of the intergrowth was found to be different from those of Bi₄Ti₃O₁₂ and SrBi₄Ti₄O₁₅. La³⁺ ions exhibit pronounced selectivity for the occupation of A site as La content is lower than 0.50, and tend to be incorporated into Bi₂O₂ layers when the La content is higher than 0.50. Lanthanum substitution brings about the structural phase transition in Bi₄Ti₃O₁₂-SrBi₄Ti₄O₁₅. The variation of ferroelectric property may be attributed to combined contribution from the decreasing of the oxygen vacancies, the relaxation of the lattice distortion, the destroying of the insulation and the space charge compensation effects of the Bi₂O₂ slabs.

Crystal growth, structural characterization and magnetic properties of Ca3CuRhO6, Ca3Co1.34Rh0.66O6 and Ca3FeRhO6

Single crystals of Ca₃CuRhO₆, Ca₃Co_1.34Rh_0.66O₆ and Ca₃FeRhO₆ were synthesized by high temperature flux growth in molten K₂CO₃ and structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction. While Ca₃Co_1.34Rh_0.66O₆ and Ca₃FeRhO₆ crystallize with trigonal (rhombohedral) symmetry in the space group , Z=6: Ca₃Co_1.34Rh_0.66O₆a=9.161(1) Å, c=10.601(2) Å; Ca₃FeRhO₆a=9.1884(3) Å, c=10.7750(4) Å; Ca₃CuRhO₆ adopts a monoclinic distortion of the K₄CdCl₆ structure in the space group C2/c, Z=4: a=9.004(2) Å, b=9.218(2) Å, c=6.453(1) Å, β=91.672(5). All crystals of Ca₃CuRhO₆ examined were twinned by pseudo-merohedry. Ca₃CuRhO₆, Ca₃Co_1.34Rh_0.66O₆, and Ca₃FeRhO₆ are structurally related and contain infinite one-dimensional chains of alternating face-sharing RhO₆ octahedra and MO₆ trigonal prisms. In the monoclinic modification, the copper atoms are displaced from the center of the trigonal prism toward one of the rectangular faces adopting a pseudo-square planar configuration. The magnetic properties of Ca₃CuRhO₆, Ca₃Co_1.34Rh_0.66O₆, and Ca₃FeRhO₆ are discussed.     

Magnetic diphase nanostructure of ZnFe2O4/γ-Fe2O3

Magnetic diphase nanostructures of ZnFe₂O₄/γ-Fe₂O₃ were synthesized by a solvothermal method. The formation reactions were optimized by tuning the initial molar ratios of Fe/Zn. All samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, infrared spectroscopy, and Raman spectra. It is found that when the initial molar ratio of Fe/Zn is larger than 2, a diphase magnetic nanostructure of ZnFe₂O₄/γ-Fe₂O₃ was formed, in which the presence of ZnFe₂O₄ enhanced the thermal stability of γ-Fe₂O₃. Further increasing the initial molar ratio of Fe/Zn larger than 6 destabilized the diphase nanostructure and yielded traces of secondary phase α-Fe₂O₃. The grain surfaces of diphase nanostructure exhibited a spin-glass-like structure. At room temperature, all diphase nanostructures are superparamagnetic with saturation magnetization being increased with γ-Fe₂O₃ content.
