二氧化锰在低温NH3-SCR催化反应上的形貌效应

利用水热法制备了三种不同形貌的MnO₂催化剂,分别为α-MnO₂纳米棒,γ-MnO₂纳米片和δ-MnO₂纳米薄膜组装的微球,考察了纳米材料的形貌结构对催化剂低温选择性催化还原(SCR)反应性能的影响,并利用X射线衍射(XRD)、扫描电镜(SEM)、透射电镜(TEM)、N₂吸附-脱附、H₂程序升温还原(H₂-TPR)、NH₃程序升温脱附(NH₃-TPD)、X射线光电子能谱(XPS)以及拉曼(Raman)光谱等表征手段对催化剂的结构进行了分析。结果表明,在50-250 ℃的温度范围内,γ-MnO₂纳米片表现出最优的SCR催化性能,不仅NOx转化率最高而且N₂选择性也最好。表征结果表明,比表面积并不是影响MnO₂催化性能的主导因素,纳米材料的晶型结构与表面暴露的活性晶面共同决定着催化剂的SCR性能。γ-MnO₂纳米片表面暴露的(131)晶面上不仅存在着大量的配位不饱和Mn离子,从而形成了较多的强酸性位点;而且还存在着较多的活性氧物种。这些活性位点可以使得NH₃和NO_x的活化过程在较低温度下进行。高浓度的流动性氧以及高价态的Mn₃₊和Mn⁴⁺也使得催化剂的氧化还原反应更易发生。

Structural Control of Mesoporous 1,4-Phenylene-silica Using the Mixture of CTAB/SDS

The morphology, pore architecture and crystallinity of the mesoporous 1,4‐phenylene‐silicas were controlled using the mixtures of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS). When the SDS/CTAB molar ratio increased from 0 to 1.0, the morphology of the mesoporous 1,4‐phenylene‐silicas changed in a sequence of sphere, hexagonal short rod, worm‐like, bent flake and flower‐like structure; the pore architecture of them changed from a hexagonal arranged tubular structure to a lamellar one; and the organization of the smallest repeat units within the wall changed from a random structure to a crystalline structure. At the SDS/CTAB molar ratios of 0.3 and 0.5, 1,4‐phenylene‐silica nanofibers with lamellar mesopores outside and tubular pore channels inside were obtained. The lamellar mesopores should be formed by merging the rod‐like micelles during the reaction process.     

Nanocrystalline copper sulfide of varying morphologies and stoichiometries in a low temperature solvothermal process using a new single-source molecular precursor

Surfactantless synthesis of copper sulfide nanoparticles (NPs) with varied morphologies such as hexagonal rods, rhombohedral, and spherical, has been carried out via low-temperature thermolysis of a new single-source precursor, [Cu(SMDTC)Cl₂], (where SMDTC is S-methyl dithiocarbazate). The reaction parameters e.g., temperature and nature of solvent can be used to control the size and morphology of the nanoparticles. It is observed that the solvents played an important role to control the morphology and stoichiometry of copper sulfide. The anisotropic absorption by the chelating solvent (diamine or ethyleneglycol) at the different facets of the newborn microcrystals results the growth of one-dimensional (1D) copper sulfide NPs. The possible formation mechanism of copper sulfide NPs has also been discussed.     

Shape-controlled synthesis of ternary chalcogenide ZnIn2S4 and CuIn(S,Se)2 nano-/microstructures via facile solution route

We demonstrated in this paper the shape-controlled synthesis of ZnIn2S4, CuInS2, and CuInSe2 nano- and microstructures through a facile solution-based route. One-dimensional ZnIn2S4 nanotubes and nanoribbons were synthesized by a solvothermal method with pyridine as the solvent, while ZnIn2S4 solid or hollow microspheres were hydrothermally prepared in the presence of a surfactant such as cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) or poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG). The mechanisms related to the phase formation and morphology control of ZnIn2S4 are proposed and discussed. The UV-vis absorption spectra show that the as-prepared nano- and micromaterials have strong absorption in a wide range from UV to visible light and that their band gaps are somewhat relevant to the size and morphology. The photoluminescence measurements of the ZnIn2S4 microspheres at room temperature reveal intense excitation at approximately 575 nm and red emission at approximately 784 nm. Furthermore, CuInS2 and CuInSe2 with different morphologies such as spheres, platelets, rods, and fishbone-like shapes were also obtained by similar hydrothermal and solvothermal synthesis.     

Formation pathway of CuInSe2 nanocrystals for solar cells

Copper, indium, and gallium chalcogenide nanocrystals (binary, ternary, and quaternary) have been used to fabricate high-efficiency thin-film solar cells. These solution-based methods are being scaled-up and may serve as the basis for the next generation of low-cost solar cells. However, the formation pathway to reach stoichiometric ternary CuInSe(2) or any chalcopyrite phase ternary or quaternary nanocrystal in the system has not been investigated but may be of significant importance to improving nanocrystal growth and discovering new methods of synthesis. Here, we present the results of X-ray diffraction, electron microscopy, compositional analysis, IR absorption, and mass spectrometry that reveal insights into the formation pathway of CuInSe(2) nanocrystals. Starting with CuCl, InCl(3), and elemental Se all dissolved in oleylamine, the overall reaction that yields CuInSe(2) involves the chlorination of the hydrocarbon groups of the solvent. Further, we show that the amine and alkene functional groups in oleylamine are not necessary for the formation of CuInSe(2) nanocrystals by conducting successful syntheses in 1-octadecene and octadecane. Hence, the role of oleylamine is not limited to nanocrystal size and morphology control; it also acts as a reactant in the formation pathway. Typically, the formation of copper selenide (CuSe) and indium selenide (InSe) nanocrystals precedes the formation of CuInSe(2) nanocrystals in oleylamine. But it was also found that Cu(2-x)Se (0 < x < 0.5) and In(2)Se(3) were the primary intermediates involved in the formation of CISe in a purely non-coordinating solvent such as 1-octadecene, which points to the surface-stabilization effect of the coordinating solvent on the less thermodynamically stable indium selenide (InSe) nanocrystals. We also show that the yield of the chalcopyrite phase of CuInSe(2) (as opposed to the sphalerite phase) can be increased by reacting CuSe nanocrystals with InCl(3).

Comparison of CO2 Reduction Performance with NH3 and H2O between Cu/TiO2 and Pd/TiO2

The aim of this study is to clarify the effect of doped metal type on CO₂ reduction characteristics of TiO₂ with NH₃ and H₂O. Cu and Pd have been selected as dopants for TiO₂. In addition, the impact of molar ratio of CO₂ to reductants NH₃ and H₂O has been investigated. A TiO₂ photocatalyst was prepared by a sol-gel and dip-coating process, and then doped with Cu or Pd fine particles by using the pulse arc plasma gun method. The prepared Cu/TiO₂ film and Pd/TiO₂ film were characterized by SEM, EPMA, TEM, STEM, EDX, EDS and EELS. This study also has investigated the performance of CO₂ reduction under the illumination condition of Xe lamp with or without ultraviolet (UV) light. As a result, it is revealed that the CO₂ reduction performance with Cu/TiO₂ under the illumination condition of Xe lamp with UV light is the highest when the molar ratio of CO₂/NH₃/H₂O = 1:1:1 while that without UV light is the highest when the molar ratio of CO₂/NH₃/H₂O = 1:0.5:0.5. It is revealed that the CO₂ reduction performance of Pd/TiO₂ is the highest for the molar ratio of CO₂/NH₃/H₂O = 1:1:1 no matter the used Xe lamp was with or without UV light. The molar quantity of CO per unit weight of photocatalyst for Cu/TiO₂ produced under the illumination condition of Xe lamp with UV light was 10.2 μmol/g, while that for Pd/TiO₂ was 5.5 μmol/g. Meanwhile, the molar quantity of CO per unit weight of photocatalyst for Cu/TiO₂ produced under the illumination condition of Xe lamp without UV light was 2.5 μmol/g, while that for Pd/TiO₂ was 3.5 μmol/g. This study has concluded that Cu/TiO₂ is superior to Pd/TiO₂ from the viewpoint of the molar quantity of CO per unit weight of photocatalyst as well as the quantum efficiency.     

Metal(II)–ligand molar ratio dependence of enantioseparation of tartaric acid by ligand exchange CE with Cu(II) and Ni(II)–D‐quinic acid systems

Enantioseparation of tartaric acid by ligand exchange CE with a Cu(II)–D ‐quinic acid system was studied. Racemic tartaric acid was enantioseparated by ligand exchange CE using BGEs containing relatively low Cu(II)–D ‐quinic acid molar ratios ranging from 1:1 to 1:3 and high molar ratios ranging from 1:8 to 1:12 but was not enantioseparated using BGEs with medium molar ratios ranging from 1:4 to 1:6. While the migration order of D ‐tartaric acid was prior to L ‐tartaric acid at the lower Cu(II)–D ‐quinic acid molar ratios, the enantiomer migration order was reversed at the higher molar ratios. These results were compared with those for Ni(II)–D ‐quinic acid system. The molar ratio dependence of enantiomer migration order can be attributed to a change in the coordination structure of Cu(II) ion with D ‐quinic acid.
