Studies on the Performance and Structure of Supported Catalysts for the Partial Oxidation of Methane to Syngas

The catalytic properties of several supported metal catalysts on different carriers were studied in the partial oxidation of methane (POM) to syngas. In our experiment, supported noble metal catalysts exhibited better performance than the other supported transition metal catalysts. The catalyst performances were significantly influenced by the d-electron configuration of the active metal components and the dispersion of active metal components on the support. A catalyst with a moderate number of unpaired electrons in the d-orbital of the active metal support without obvious acidity or redox activity (e.g. MgO) was suitable for POM performance. The Rh/SiO2 catalyst was the best in the POM reaction, among those investigated. Reaction conditions apparently also affected the POM performance of the catalyst. The conversion of methane and the selectivity for CO increased with the reaction temperature, and a high CH4/O2 ratio was not beneficial for POM performance.     

A Novel Green Preparation of a, a''''-Bis (substituted benzylidene)-cycloalkanones Promoted by FeCl_3 6H-2O in Ionic Liquid

a, a'-Bis(substituted benzylidene)cycloalkanones were efficiently prepared from cycloalkanones and benzaldehydes in [bmim][BF4] by using iron(III) chloride hexahydrate as a catalyst. It is shown that [bmim][BF4] and iron(III) chloride hexahydrate can be quantitatively recovered and be reused effectively for many times. Compared with the known methods, this novel process has the advantage of being an envkonmentally benign process together with good yields and mild reaction conditions.     

Exact Fixed-node Quantum Monte Carlo： Self-optimizing Procedure

In this paper, a novel exact fixed-node quantum Monte Carlo (EFNQMC) algorithm was proposed, which is a self-optimizing and self-improving procedure. In contrast to the previous EFN-QMC method, the importance function of this method is optimized synchronistically in the diffusion procedure, but not be-fore beginning the EFNQMC computation. In order to optimize the importance function, the improved steepest descent tech-nique is used, in which the step size is automatically adjustable.The procedure is quasi-Newton type and converges super linear-ly. The present method also uses a novel trial function, which has correct electron-electron and electron-nucleus cusp condi-tious. The novel EFNQMC algorithm and the novel trial func-tion are employed to calculate the energies of 1 ^1A1 state of CH2, ^1Ag state of Cs and the ground-states of H2, LiH, Li2 and H2O.

Selective Determination of Nanogram γ-Globulin in Human Blood Serum by Resonance Light Scattering of Functionalized Nano-PbS

Functionalized nano-PbS has been prepared and characterized. The functionalized nanoparticles have good dispersibility in water. Reaction of functionalized nano-PbS with γ-globulin (γ-IgG) results an enhanced resonance light scattering (RLS) around 385nm.However, when the content of HSA is lower than 0.5μg/ml^-1 the RLS enhancement is very weak and is nonlinear to concentration of HSA. Based on these results, a new direct quantitative determination method for γ-globulin in blood serum samples without separation is established.Under optimal conditions, the enhanced RLS intensity is in proportion to the γ-IgG concentration in the range 10-500ng/mL. The limit of detection is 2.75ng/mL. This method is proved to be very sensitive, rapid, simple and selective for detection of γ-IgG in blood serum.

丙烯气相直接环氧化Au/TiO2催化剂的研究

在H2和O2共存条件下，金催化剂催化丙烯气相直接环氧化反应是近年来发展起来的一种新型环氧丙烷(PO)合成技术．本文采用沉积沉淀法制备了一系列Au／TiO2催化剂，考察了反应溶液的pH值、Au负载量、沉淀剂以及焙烧温度等因素对催化剂丙烯环氧化催化性能的影响．结果表明制备条件对催化性能有明显影响：反应溶液的pH值为7．5及Au负载量为2．4％时所得催化剂活性最好；当以Na2CO3、NaOH等含Na^ 物质作为沉淀剂时，催化性能明显优于Li^ 、K^ 等其它碱金属离子；400℃焙烧制得的催化剂活性较好，在50℃低温反应条件下，环氧丙烷得率可达1．3％．HRTEM结果表明，催化剂中Au组分高度分散于载体表面，且随着焙烧温度的增加Au粒因发生聚集而变大，从而影响了催化剂的活性．表面XPS分析证实，活性较好的Au／TiO2催化剂中活性组分Au除部分呈氧化态外，主要是以金属态的形式存在．
