二甲醚电氧化及其阳极催化剂研究

Anode electro-catalysts for direct dimethyl-ether fuel cell (DDFC), Pt/C, PtRu/C (1∶1) and PtSn/C (3∶2), were prepared by chemical impregnation-reduction method with formaldehyde as the reductant. DME electro-oxidation and adsorption at Pt electrode and Pt electro-catalysts were investigated by Cyclic Voltammetry(CV), Quasi-steady state polarization and Gas Chromatography(GC). CV showed that there were two current peaks of DME electro-oxidation at Pt electrode around 0.8V (vs RHE); DME was adsorbed at Pt electrode more weakly and slowly than oxygen, methanol, even hydrogen; the onset potential of DME oxidation was 50mV less than that of methanol, and DME peak potential 110 mV lower, thus more advantageous for using in fuel cells than methanol. GC showed that small amount of HCHO was generated during DME electro-oxidation. The mechanism of DME electro-oxidation was proposed. Among the three electro-catalysts (Pt/C, PtRu/C and PtSn/C), Pt alloy catalysts, especially PtRu/C, showed a higher performance toward DME electro-oxidation, as in the case of methanol. Temperature experiments showed that both DME electro-oxidation and adsorption on Pt and Pt alloy catalysts were favored with increased temperature.     

Effect of carbon content on photocatalytic activity of C/TiO2 composite

A series of carbon-covered titania (CCT) were prepared via pyrolysis of sucrose highly dispersed on titania surface in flowing N₂. The samples were characterized by XRD, BET, DTA-TG, UV—Vis, and their photocatalytic properties were evaluated with two model pollutants, methylene blue (MB) and rhodamine B (RB), at room temperature. The effect of carbon content on photocatalytic activity of the C/TiO₂ composite was investigated. It was found that the effect of carbon content is different for different pollutants or different light sources. For three tested samples, under UV illumination CCT01 has the highest activity for MB photocatalytic degradation, while in the case of RB, CCT02 is the most active photocatalyst. Under visible light illumination, CCT005 has the highest activity for both MB and RB photocatalytic degradation. Translated from Chinese Journal of Catalysis, 2006, 27(1): (in Chinese)

Enthalpies of adsorption of methylene blue and crystal violet to montmorillonite

Calorimetric measurements of the enthalpy of adsorption on montmorillonite indicate different patterns for methylene blue (MB) and crystal violet (CV). The enthalpy of adsorption of MB is endothermic up to 73% of the cation exchange capacity (CEC) (i.e., about 0.6 mmol g^-1 clay), whereas at higher adsorption ratios the adsorption reaction becomes exothermic. The enthalpy of adsorption of CV is exothermic for all amounts adsorbed. These results were confirmed with adsorption experiments that prove that adsorption of MB increase with temperature, whereas CV adsorption decreases. This behavior indicates changes in the equilibrium coefficient according to Van't Hoff's equation. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Separation of inorganic anions by reversed-phase ion-pair chromatography with direct UV detection

In this paper, a separation method of the inorganic anions including I^–, NO ₂ ^– , NO ₃ ^– , IO ₃ ^– and SCN^– on the reversed-phase ion-pair chromatography with direct UV detection has been developed, and the limits of detection of these inorganic anions were determined. The effects of the organic modifier volume fraction and concentration of the ion-pair reagent on the retention of inorganic anions were discussed.     

Dimension and entropy of a non-ergodic Markovian process and its relation to Rademacher Riesz Products

Given a Markov chain (not necessarily stationary or homogeneous) with finite state space and an initial distribution, we can construct a measure on the unit interval [0, 1]. In this work we examine the equality (up to a constant) of the Hausdorff dimension of and of a suitably defined entropy for the Markovian process. The results are applied to the so-called Rademacher-Riesz Products.     

Curvature and finite domination

Upper bounds obtained by Gromov on the Betti numbers of certain closed Riemannian manifolds are shown to be upper bounds on the minimum number of cells in --spaces dominating such manifolds.

     

Arsenite oxidation and arsenate determination by the molybdene blue method

Based on the similarity in properties of arsenate and phosphate, the colorimetric method using the molybdene blue complex was tested in order to determine low As(V) concentration in waters. The influence of complex formation time, daylight, temperature and competitive anions (silicate and sulphate) upon complex formation was determined. Optimal complex formation was reached in 1 h at 20±1 °C and was slightly favoured when developed in daylight. The formation rate declined with decreasing reaction temperature and no influence of any of the competitive anions tested (at concentrations usually found in natural waters of granitic areas) was noted. The detection limit of this method was 20 μg As(V) l⁻¹. This simple, fast and sensitive arsenic determination method is suitable for field analysis, especially for waters containing low levels of phosphate and organic matter. Through arsenate determination, this colorimetric method allowed the arsenite oxidation efficiency of five common industrial oxidants to be compared. H₂O₂ and MnO_2(s) were not considered as effective oxidants as a high excess was necessary to ensure As(III) oxidation. NaOCl and KMnO₄ were promising oxidants as they allowed complete arsenite oxidation with a small excess for NaOCl or even less than the electron stoichiometric ratio in the case of KMnO₄. FeCl₃ was the most effective oxidant among the reagents tested here.     

The effect of nanosized titania-silica film composition on the photostability of adsorbed methylene blue dye

The effect of nanosized porous films (average density 10 g/m²) of TiO₂. TiO₂/SiO₂, and SiO₂ on the photostability of adsorbed methylene blue (MB) dye during UV irradiation in air was investigated by optical spectroscopy and laser-induced mass spectrometry. The effectiveness of the photodecomposition of MB decreases in the order TiO₂ > TiO₂/SiO₂ > SiO₂ with rate constants 1E-2, 0.6E-2, and 0.3E-2 min⁻¹ respectively. A mechanism including the participation of both excited states of the dye molecules and photoexcited titanium dioxide is proposed for the photodecolorization of MB adsorbed on the surface of the investigated films. __________ Translated from Teoreticheskaya i éksperimental’naya Khimiya, Vol. 43, No. 4, pp. 220–225, July–August, 2007.
