Enhanced CO2 Electrolysis with Metal-oxide Interface Structures

The ever-decreasing fossil fuels and the increasing greenhouse effect have caused substantial concern.Solid oxide electrolyser cell(SOEC)with La_0.75Sr_0.25Cr_(0.5 )Mn_0.5O_3-δ(LSCM)as a cathode was used for CO₂ electrolysis to CO.In this work,the metal-oxide interface was constructed on the LSCM framework by in-situ exsolution and impregnation,and the uniform distribution of metal nanoparticles on the LSCM framework was confirmed by spectroscopy techniques and electron microscopy techniques.The existence of three-phase boundary promoted the absorption and electrolysis of CO₂.(La_0.75 Sr_0.25)0.9(Cr_(0.5 )Mn_0.5)_0.9(Ni_0.5 Cu_0.5)_0.1 O_3-δ(LSCMNC)showed the best electrolytic CO₂ performance at 850℃and exhibited excellent electrocatalytic activity after 100 hours of long-term testing and 8 redox cycles.     

不同浓度的尾砂胶结充填体破坏过程 声发射特性试验研究*

制备了3种不同质量浓度的充填体试件，进行了单轴压缩声发射试验，分析了不同浓度的充填体力学特性，重点研究了试件破坏过程中的声发射振铃计数、声发射累计撞击数与声发射累计能量的比值(r值)、主频及其相对高频信号激增响应系数特征。研究表明：随着浓度的增加，充填体的峰值强度与弹性模量呈增大趋势，充填体中出现的声发射累计振铃计数越多；r值先升高再持续减小到一个较低值，随着外载荷的增加，进入缓慢升高阶段，峰值前均保持在该阶段。充填体破裂前兆信息在声发射信号主频分布中呈现主频段增多现象，表现为由加载初期的1~2个主频段，在临界主破裂时增多到3~5个主频段；且随着浓度的增加，声发射信号主频频段分布越宽，声发射相对高频信号(160~180 kHz)的激增响应系数呈递减趋势。以上特征可为不同浓度的尾砂胶结充填体稳定性监测、预测提供依据。     

不同变质程度煤的高分辨率透射电镜分析

利用高分辨率透射电子显微镜(HRTEM)分析了三种不同变质程度煤样的结构特征。基于傅里叶-反傅里叶变换方法,并结合Matlab、Arcgis和Auto CAD软件,通过图像分析技术,获得了HRTEM照片的晶格条纹参数。结果表明,三种煤样的晶格条纹呈现不同特征,按条纹长度分别归属于1×1-8×8共计八个类型。以3×3为临界点,在1×1和2×2中,ML-8中芳香层片的比例高于DP-4和XM-3;在3×3-8×8中,ML-8中芳香层片的比例低于DP-4和XM-3。对比HRTEM和XRD参数d002发现,随着镜质组反射率的增加d002都呈现递减趋势。     

Thermally-Induced Isomerization of Prenucleation Clusters During the Prenucleation Stage of CdTe Quantum Dots

The evolution of prenucleation clusters in the prenucleation stage of colloidal semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) has remained unexplored. With CdTe as a model system, we show that substances form and isomerize prior to the nucleation and growth of QDs. Called precursor compounds (PCs), the prenucleation clusters are relatively optically transparent and can transform to absorbing magic-size clusters (MSCs). When a prenucleation-stage sample at 25, 45, or 80 °C is dispersed in a mixture of cyclohexane (CH) and octylamine (OTA) at room temperature, either MSC-371, MSC-417, or MSC-448 evolves with absorption peaking at 371, 417, or 448 nm, respectively. We propose that PC-371 forms at 25 °C, and isomerizes to PC-417 at 45 °C and to PC-448 at 80 °C. The PCs and MSCs are quasi isomers. Relatively large and small amounts of OTA favor PC-371 and PC-448 in dispersion, respectively. The present findings suggest the existence of PC-to-PC isomerization in the QD prenucleation stage.     

锂参与合成MOF-5用于CO_2/CH_4混合气体分离

利用溶剂热法合成了不同锂含量的MOF-5(x Li-MOF-5,x=0,1,3,5)。在MOF-5结晶过程中,锂离子被合并入其骨架结构中。实验表明,合并入骨架的锂能够改变MOF-5的结构和表面化学性质。不同的x Li-MOF-5能够不同程度降低骨架相互穿插的程度从而导致其吸附分离能力的大幅改变。其中,3Li-MOF-5具有最高的二氧化碳捕获能力(5.47 mmol·g-1),对40%CO2/60%CH4混合气体具有最优吸附选择性。     

Resolution of ketoconazole enantiomers by high-performance liquid chromatography and inclusion complex formation between selector and enantiomerss

The analytical resolution of ketoconazole (KTZ) enantiomers was performed by high-performance liquid chromatography with sulphobutylether-β-cyclodextrin (SBE-β-CD) as a chiral mobile phase additive (chiral selector). Some important factors affecting the resolution of KTZ enantiomers were investigated. In addition, the molecular interaction between KTZ and SBE-β-CD was studied using the UV absorption spectrum and HPLC for an understanding of the resolution process. The results show that the type and concentration of the chiral mobile phase additive, the pH of the mobile phase and the volume fraction of methanol (?_MeOH) in the mobile phase all have a clear influence on the resolution of KTZ enantiomers. Under optimal conditions, namely the use of 0.5 mmol L^?1 SBE-β-CD as the chiral mobile phase additive, pH of 4.0 and ?_MeOH in the mobile phase of 0.6, KTZ enantiomers are resolved with a resolution of 3.74. SBE-β-CD can bind to KTZ with a stability constant of 1157. The chromatographic method can provide the complexation stability constants of (+)-KTZ with SBE-β-CD (K₍₊₎) and (?)-KTZ with SBE-β-CD (K_(?)). The intrinsic enantioselectivity was calculated from the K₍₊₎ to (K_(?)) ratio as 1.34.     

Surface and Structural Investigation of a MnOx Birnessite‐Type Water Oxidation Catalyst Formed under Photocatalytic Conditions

Catalytically active MnO_x species have been reported to form in situ from various Mn‐complexes during electrocatalytic and solution‐based water oxidation when employing cerium(IV) ammonium ammonium nitrate (CAN) oxidant as a sacrificial reagent. The full structural characterization of these oxides may be complicated by the presence of support material and lack of a pure bulk phase. For the first time, we show that highly active MnO_x catalysts form without supports in situ under photocatalytic conditions. Our most active ⁴MnO_x catalyst (～0.84 mmol O₂ mol Mn^?1 s^?1) forms from a Mn₄O₄ bearing a metal–organic framework. ⁴MnO_x is characterized by pair distribution function analysis (PDF), Raman spectroscopy, and HR‐TEM as a disordered, layered Mn‐oxide with high surface area (216 m²g^?1) and small regions of crystallinity and layer flexibility. In contrast, the ^SMnO_x formed from Mn²⁺ salt gives an amorphous species of lower surface area (80 m²g^?1) and lower activity (～0.15 mmol O₂ mol Mn^?1 s^?1). We compare these catalysts to crystalline hexagonal birnessite, which activates under the same conditions. Full deconvolution of the XPS Mn2p_3/2 core levels detects enriched Mn³⁺ and Mn²⁺ content on the surfaces, which indicates possible disproportionation/comproportionation surface equilibria.     

Concerted Ring Opening and Cycloaddition of Chiral Epoxy Enolsilanes with Dienes

Silyl‐triflate‐catalyzed (4+3) cycloadditions of epoxy enolsilanes with dienes provide a mild and chemoselective synthetic route to seven‐membered carbocycles. Epoxy enolsilanes containing a terminal enolsilane and a single stereocenter undergo cycloaddition with almost complete conservation of enantiomeric purity, a finding that argues against the involvement of oxyallyl cation intermediates which have been previously proposed for these types of reactions. Reported are theoretical and experimental investigations of the cycloaddition mechanism. The major enantiomers of the cycloadducts are derived from S_N2‐like reactions of the silylated epoxide with the diene, in which stereospecific ring opening and formation of the two new C? C bonds occur in a single step. Calculations predict, and experiments confirm, that the observed small losses of enantiomeric purity are traced to a triflate‐mediated double S_N2 cycloaddition pathway.
