Y掺杂对氢氧化镍电极高温性能的影响

合成了内掺稀土元素Y的β-Ni(OH)2和α-Ni(OH)2材料, 并通过XRD、TEM、CV 和充放电测试等方法研究了Y元素对这两种晶型活性材料的结构、形貌以及高温电化学性能方面的影响, 发现Y元素可显著提高β-Ni(OH)2和α-Ni(OH)2材料的高温性能, 且作用机理相同, 均是通过提高析氧过电位来改善镍电极的高温充电效率. 但是α-Ni(OH)2在高温下的相稳定性仍有待提高.     

Efficiency of tributyltin extraction from rhine river sediment

A Rhine river sediment sample was spiked with tributyltin (TBT), equilibrated for ten days and the tributyltin extraction efficiency was optimised using a simplex algorithm. Analysis was effected using hydride generation gas chromatography-atomic absorption spectroscopy (GC-AAS) apparatus. The results show that, in this sediment sample, different molarities of HCl in methanol extract different species with varying extraction efficiencies. The least polar extraction solution extracted TBT more efficiently, whilst DBT and MBT require molar solution of HCl in methanol for efficient extraction.     

How anomalous are the anomalous properties of fluorine? Ionization energy and electron affinity revisited

It is well established that atomic fluorine has a miserly high ionization energy and avariciously high electron affinity. Yet, as was shown some 30 years ago, the latter value is anomalously low-linear extrapolation shows the value to be some 110 kJ/mol less than expected by comparison to the heavier halogens. Related literature investigation extended this anomaly to nitrogen and oxygen and their (valence) isoelectronic congeners. We extend it to related cationic species and thereby the noble gases and alkali metals, and the aforementioned species are better understood. We thus ask if the ionization energy/electron affinity anomaly of fluorine remains an anomaly.     

Separation of polar and non-polar analytes using dimethyl sulfoxide-modified subcritical water

Separations using methanol–water or acetonitrile–water mixtures at different temperatures have been well investigated in reversed-phase liquid chromatography. However, reversed-phase separation with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)–water mixtures is much less studied. In this work, separations of polyhydroxybenzenes, phenol derivatives, benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylenes (BTEX), and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) with DMSO-modified subcritical water were performed at several temperatures to evaluate the effect of temperature on the elution strength of DMSO–water mixtures. The column efficiency obtained by using DMSO-modified subcritical water was also studied. Finally, the resolution of ethylbenzene and p-xylene was investigated.     

Effect of Particle Size and Capping on Photoluminescence Quantum Efficiency of 1,3,5-Triphenyl-2-pyrazoline Nanocrystals

Organic nanocrystals of 1,3,5-triphenyl-2-pyrazoline(TPP) with a series of sizes were synthesized by reprecipitation method.The luminescence quantum efficiency of TPP nanocrystals increases from 24.2% for the nanocrystals with an average size of 300nm to 34.6% for those with an average size of 20nm.Surface capping by polyvinyl pyrrolidone(PVP) will improve the quantum efficiency of TPP nanocrystals.The size-dependence and capping-induced variation of the luminescence quantum efficiency was elucidated in viewpoint of aggregation quenching and the equilibrium between the TPP monomers and the aggregates in TPP nanocrystals.

Developments on carbon dioxide reduction: Their promise,achievements, and challenges

CO₂ reduction processes continue to be developed for electrosynthesis, energy storage applications, and environmental remediation. A number of promising materials have shown high activity and selectivity to target reduction products. However, the progress has been mainly at a small laboratory scale, and the technical challenges of large scale CO₂ reduction have not been considered adequately. This review covers recent advancements in catalyst materials and cell designs. The leading materials for CO₂ reduction to a number of useful products are presented with their corresponding cell and reactor designs. The latest efforts to progress to industrially relevant scales are discussed, along with the challenges that must be met for carbon dioxide reduction to be a viable route for mass scale production.     

Si(CH3)3Cl分子电离电势和化学键能的测定

The photoionization spectroscopy of Si(CH3)3Cl in the range of 50 -130 nm was studied with synchrotron radiation source. The adiabatic ionization potentials of molecule Si(CH3)3Cl and radical Si(CH3)3 are 10.06 ±0.02 eV and 7.00±0.03 eV respectively. In addition, the appearance potentials of Si(CH3)2Cl+, Si(CH3)3+, SiCl+ and SiCH3+ were determined:
AP(Si(CH3)2Cl+) ＝10.49±0.02eV, AP(Si(CH3)3+) ＝ 11.91 ±0.02eV
AP(SiCl+) ＝ 18.64 ±0.06eV, AP(SiCH3+)＝ 18.62 ±0.02eV
From these, some chemical bond energies of Si(CH3)3Cl+ were calculated:
D(Si(CH3)2Cl+ - CH3) ＝0.43 ±0.02eV, D(Si(CH3)3+ - Cl) ＝ 1.85 ± 0.02eV
D(SiCH3+ - (2CH3 ＋ Cl)) ＝ 8.56 ± 0．06eV, D(SiCH3+ - 2CH3) ＝6.71±0．06eV
D(SiCl+ - 3CH3) ＝ 8.58 ± 0.06eV, D(SiCl＋- 2CH3) ＝ 8.15 ±0.06eV
D(SiCH3+- (CH3 ＋ Cl)) ＝8.13 ±0.06eV     

Efficiency in integral facility design problems

An example of design might be a warehouse floor (represented by a setS) of areaA, with unspecified shape. Givenm warehouse users, we suppose that useri has a known disutility functionf _isuch thatH _i(S), the integral off _iover the setS (for example, total travel distance), defines the disutility of the designS to useri. For the vectorH(S) with entriesH _i(S), we study the vector minimization problem over the set {H(S) :S a design} and call a design efficient if and only if it solves this problem. Assuming a mild regularity condition, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for a design to be efficient, as well as verifiable conditions for the regularity condition to hold. For the case wheref _iis thel _p-distance from warehouse docki, with 1<p<, a design is efficient if and only if it is essentially the same as a contour set of some Steiner-Weber functionf =₁ f ₁++ _m f _m ,when the _i are nonnegative constants, not all zero.This research was supported in part by the Interuniversity College for PhD Studies in Management Sciences (CIM), Brussels, Belgium; by the Army Research Office, Triangle Park, North Carolina; by a National Academy of Sciences-National Research Council Postdoctorate Associateship; and by the Operations Research Division, National Bureau of Standards, Washington, D.C.

氟代乙烯阳离子的理论研究

用B3LYP和MP2方法及6-31G(d, p)、6-31＋G(d, p)、6-311G(d, p)和6-311＋G(d, p) 基组，对六种氟代乙烯阳离子做了理论研究，优化了它们的基电子态的结构，计算了对应分子的垂直电离势（VIP）和绝热电离势(AIP).结果表明，与具有非平面结构的乙烯阳离子不同，六种氟代乙烯阳离子都只具有平面结构；与分子结构相比，离子结构的C－C键增长， C－F键缩短， CCF键角变小. 自然布居分析计算表明，这些离子的正电荷主要分布在与F原子相连的C原子和各H原子上. B3LYP/6-311＋G(d, p) 级别上计算的各分子的VIP和AIP值和实验值符合得很好. 使用含弥散基函数的基集可以明显提高这类分子的电离势的计算精度.
