Surface-Modified Sb2S3 Nanoparticles and Their Tribological Behaviors in Liquid Paraffin

Sb₂S₃ nanoparticles surface-modified with S-tetradecyl N, N-dihydroxyethyl dithiocarbamate (C₁₄DTC-Sb₂S₃) have been synthesized via extraction of Sb₂S₃ colloidal particles from ethylene glycol into toluene in the presence of C₁₄DTC. The obtained products were characterized by high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM) and Fourier transformation infrared (FTIR), and their tribological behaviors as an additive in liquid paraffin were investigated using a four-ball tribometer. The results show that C₁₄DTC-Sb₂S₃ nanoparticles can significantly improve the friction reduction, anti-wear, and load-carrying properties of base oils. The preliminary lubrication mechanism was discussed based on the SEM and XPS investigation of the rubbed surfaces.     

Efficient Synthesis of β-Hydroxy Sulfides and β-Hydroxy Sulfoxides Catalyzed by Cu/MgO Under Solvent-Free Conditions

Regio-, stereo-, and chemoselective ring opening of epoxides with thiols using Cu/MgO as a heterogeneous catalyst has efficiently been carried out to produce the corresponding β-hydroxy sulfides in excellent yields at room temperature under solvent-free conditions. The treatment of the epoxides with thiols and 50% aqueous H₂O₂ in the presence of the same catalyst at room temperature affords the β-hydroxy sulfoxides in excellent yields.     

H2S splitting on Cu(110): Insight from combined periodic density functional theory calculations and microkinetic simulation

Practical copper (Cu)‐based catalysts for the water–gas shift (WGS) reaction was long believed to expose a large proportion of Cu(110) planes. In this work, as an important first step toward addressing sulfur poisoning of these catalysts, the detailed mechanism for the splitting of hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) on the open Cu(110) facet has been investigated in the framework of periodic, self‐consistent density functional theory (DFT‐GGA). The microkinetic model based on the first‐principles calculations has also been developed to quantitatively evaluate the two considered decomposition routes for yielding surface atomic sulfur (S*): (1) H₂S → H₂S* → SH* → S* and (2) 2H₂S → 2H₂S* → 2SH* → S* + H₂S* → S* + H₂S. The first pathway proceeding through unimolecular SH* dissociation was identified to be feasible, whereas the second pathway involving bimolecular SH* disproportionation made no contribution to S* formation. The molecular adsorption of H₂S is the slowest elementary step of its full decomposition, being related with the large entropy term of the gas‐phase reactant under realistic reaction conditions. A comparison of thermodynamic and kinetic reactivity between the substrate and the close‐packed Cu(111) surface further shows that a loosely packed facet can promote the S* formation from H₂S on Cu, thus revealing that the reaction process is structure sensitive. The present DFT and microkinetic modeling results provide a reasonably complete picture for the chemistry of H₂S on the Cu(110) surface, which is a necessary basis for the design of new sulfur‐tolerant WGS catalysts. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

Removal of carbonyl sulfide from CO2 stream using AgNO3-modified NaZSM-5

Removal of carbonyl sulfide (COS) from CO₂ stream is significant for the production and utilization of food grade CO₂. This study investigates the adsorption performance of Ag/NaZSM-5 as adsorbent prepared by incipient wetness impregnation for the removal of COS from a CO₂ stream in a fixed-bed adsorption apparatus. Effects of various conditions on the preparation of adsorbent, adsorption and desorption were intensively examined. The results revealed that COS can be removed to below 1×10^?9 from a CO₂ stream (1000 ppm COS/CO₂) using Ag/NaZSM-5 (10 wt% AgNO₃) with an adsorption capacity of 12.86 mg-g^?1. The adsorbent can be fully regenerated using hot air at 450 °C. The adsorption ability remained stable even after eight cycles of regeneration.     

Carbon Sphere@Nickel sulfide core-shell nanocomposite for high performance supercapacitor application

The Carbon sphere@Nickel sulfide core-shell nanocomposites for different mole ratios of Carbon sphere (0:1; 0.5:1 and 1:1) have been synthesized by a facile low temperature water-bath method without any further calcination. XRD studies on the core-shell nanocomposites show that characteristic peaks associated with rhombohedral phase structure of nickel sulfide have been retained. TEM morphology presents the interlinked core-shell of Carbon sphere@Nickel sulfide composite with grass-leaf dexterity for better ionic diffusion. BET study confirms the formation of mesoporous structure with high surface area. The existence of elements and its electronic configuration is noted through XPS. The electrochemical studies on pristine nickel sulfide and its Carbon sphere@Nickel sulfide core-shell composites reveal that Carbon sphere@Nickel sulfide (0.5:1) exhibits high specific capacitance of 1022?F?g^?1 at a current density of 1?A?g^?1. It shows good cyclic performance even beyond 4000 consecutive charge/discharge cycles at a relatively high current density of 20?A?g^?1 with the ～83% of retention.     

Reaction kinetics and thermochemistry of the chemically activated and stabilized primary ethyl radical of methyl ethyl sulfide,CH3SCH2CH2•, with O2 to CH3SCH2CH2OO•

Oxidation of methyl ethyl sulfide (CH₃SCH₂CH₃, methylthioethane, MES) under atmospheric and combustion conditions is initiated by hydroxyl radicals, MES radicals, generated after loss of a H atom via OH abstraction, will further react with O₂ to form chemically activated and stabilized peroxyl radical adducts. The kinetics of the chemically activated reaction between the CH₃SCH₂CH₂• radical and molecular oxygen are analyzed using quantum Rice-Ramsperger-Kassel theory for k(E) with master equation analysis and a modified strong-collision approach to account for further reactions and collisional deactivation. Thermodynamic properties of reactants, products, and transition states are determined by the B3LYP/6-31+G(2d,p), M062X/6-311+G(2d,p), ωB97XD/6-311+G(2d,p) density functional theory, and CBS-QB3, G3MP2B3, and G4 composite methods. The reaction of CH₃SCH₂CH₂• with O₂ forms an energized peroxy adduct CH₃SCH₂CH₂OO• with a calculated well depth of 34.1 kcal mol⁻¹ at the CBS-QB3 level of theory. Thermochemical properties of reactants, transition states, and products obtained under CBS-QB3 level are used for calculation of kinetic parameters. Reaction enthalpies are compared between the methods. The temperature and pressure-dependent rate coefficients for both the chemically activated reactions of the energized adduct and the thermally activated reactions of the stabilized adducts are presented. Stabilization and isomerization of the CH₃SCH₂CH₂OO• adduct are important under high pressure and low temperature. At higher temperatures and atmospheric pressure, the chemically activated peroxy adduct reacts to new products before stabilization. Addition of the peroxyl oxygen radical to the sulfur atom followed by sulfur-oxygen double bond formation and elimination of the methyl radical to form S(= O)CCO• + CH₃ (branching) is a potentially important new pathway for other alkyl-sulfide peroxy radical systems under thermal or combustion conditions.

Light-Driven Syngas Production over Defective ZnIn2S4 Nanosheets

Photocatalytic syngas (CO and H₂) production with CO₂ as gas source not only ameliorates greenhouse effect, but also produces valuable chemical feedstocks. However, traditional photocatalytic systems require noble metal or suffers from low yield. Here, we demonstrate that S vacancies ZnIn₂S₄ (V_S-ZnIn₂S₄) nanosheets are an ideal photocatalyst to drive CO₂ reduction into syngas. It is found that building S vacancies can endow ZnIn₂S₄ with stronger photoabsorption, efficient electron–hole separation, and larger CO₂ adsorption, finally promoting both hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and CO₂ reduction reaction (CO₂RR). The syngas yield of CO and H₂ is therefore significantly increased. In contrast to pristine ZnIn₂S₄, the syngas yield over V_S-ZnIn₂S₄ can be improved by roughly ≈4.73 times and the CO/H₂ ratio is modified from 1:4.18 to 1:1. Total amount of syngas after 12 h photocatalysis is as high as 63.20 mmol g⁻¹ without use of any noble metals, which is even higher than those of traditional noble metal-based catalysts in the reported literatures. This work demonstrates the critical role of S vacancies in mediating catalytic activity and selectivity, and highlights the attractive ability of defective ZnIn₂S₄ for light-driven syngas production.
