In2O3三维纳米结构的控制合成及高效光解水产氢活性研究

Exploring economical and efficient photocatalysts for hydrogen production is of great significance for alleviating the energy and environmental crisis. In this study, 3D In₂O₃ nanostructures with appropriate self-assembly degrees were obtained using a facile hydrothermal strategy. To study the significance of 3D In₂O₃ nanostructures with appropriate self-assembly degrees in photocatalytic hydrogen production, the photocatalytic performances of samples were evaluated based on the amount of hydrogen gas release under visible-light irradiation (λ > 400 nm) and simulated solar light illumination. Interestingly, the 3D In₂O₃-150 nanostructured photocatalyst (hydrothermal temperature was 150 ℃, denoted as In₂O₃-150) exhibited extremely superior photocatalytic hydrogen evolution activity, which may have been caused by their unique structure to improve light reflection and gas evolution. The special structure can enhance light harvesting and induce more carriers to participate in photocatalytic hydrogen production. Despite possessing similar 3D nanostructures, the In₂O₃-180 photocatalyst exhibited poor photocatalytic activity. This may have been caused by the high self-assembly degree, which can hinder light irradiation and isolate a portion of the water. In addition, the 3D nanostructures could effectively make uniform the carrier migration direction, which is from the interior to the rod end. However, the direction of carrier migration of the In₂O₃-110 photocatalyst could transfer in various directions, whereas the In₂O₃-130 photocatalyst could transfer to both ends of the rod. This might cause partial migration to counteract each other. The compact cluster rod-like structure of In₂O₃-180 might prevent the light from exciting the carrier effectively. Through a photocatalytic recycling test, the 3D In₂O₃-150 nanostructured photocatalyst exhibited outstanding photochemical stability. This work highlights the importance of controlling the self-assembly degree of 3D In₂O₃ nanostructures and explores the performances of 3D In₂O₃ nanostructured photocatalysts in hydrogen production under visible light and simulated solar light.     

Excess capacity on compound phases of Li2FeTiO4 composite cathode materials synthesized by hydrothermal reaction using optional titanium sources to boost battery performance

Li₂FeTiO₄ composites have been produced using commercial LiAC, FeCl₂ and different titanium sources by hydrothermal synthesis (HS) at 175 ℃ and subsequent annealing at 700 ℃. Impure phase TiO₂, Fe₂O₃ and FeTiO₄ were detected out among the Li₂FeTiO₄ composites with different titanium sources. Micron and nano-sized particles of Li₂FeTiO₄ were prepared from various titanium raw materials, with nano-sized particles predominating when titanium raw materials were layered hydrogen titanate nanowire (H₂Ti₃O₇NW, HTO-NW) and titanium oxide nanotubes (TiO₂NB). The Li₂FeTiO₄ composites synthesized by HTO-NW shows a primary particle size of 50-200 nm of high crystallinity staggered with undissolved nanowire with a diameter size of about 100 nm. The samples using one-dimensional nanometer titanium oxide (TiO₂ NB) as the raw material can get a super high initial discharge capacity of 367.8 mAh/g at the rate of C/10 and excellent cycling stability. The selection of raw materials and adopting multi-phase modification can be considered as an effective strategy to improve the electro-chemical properties of Li₂FeTiO₄ composite cathode materials for the lithium secondary battery.     

Solvothermal Preparation of Mn3O4 Nanoparticles and Effect of Temperature on Particle Size

Hausmannite Mn₃O₄ nanoparticles were successfully prepared via a facile one-step solvothermal route with Mn(CH₃COO)₂·4H₂O as manganese source in the mixed solvent of acetone and water. Powder X-ray diffraction(XRD), Fourier transform infrared(FTIR) spectrometry and transmission electron microscopy(TEM) were used to characterize Mn₃O₄ nanoparticles. It was found that the particle size could be tailored by varying the synthesis temperature. On the whole, the particle size becomes larger with the rising of solvothermal reaction temperature. But there is no linear relation between them. According to the different temperatures(60-140℃), the average particle size is from about 9 nm to 15 nm. Magnetic properties of Mn₃O₄ samples prepared at 60, 100 and 140℃ were studied via a superconducting quantum interference device(SQUID), respectively.

Thermal behavior of nitrided TiO2/In2O3 by TG–DSC–MS combined with PulseTA

TiO₂/InN (In/(Ti + In) = 6.5:100 mol) was prepared by nitridation of TiO₂/In₂O₃ by NH₃ at 580 °C for 8 h. Only the anatase TiO₂ phase was detected in the XRD measurements. The highly dispersed InN clusters on the surface of anatase TiO₂ nanocrystals were beyond the detection limit of XRD. In order to confirm the existence of InN in the products of nitridation, thermogravimetry–differential scanning calorimetry–mass spectrometry (TG–DSC–MS) coupling techniques were used for a simultaneous characterizing study of the changes of mass, enthalpy and determination of the evolved gases during the thermal decomposition of the InN and the nitrided TiO₂/In₂O₃ samples. Moreover, pulse thermal analysis (PulseTA) was combined with TG–DSC–MS for the quantitative calibration of the evolved nitrogen formed during the thermal decomposition of the InN and the nitrided TiO₂/In₂O₃. The applied technique enabled identification and quantification of the InN in the products of the nitridation of TiO₂/In₂O_3.

Synthesis of titania and titanate nanomaterials and their application in environmental analytical chemistry

TiO₂ nanoparticles and H₂Ti₂O₅·H₂O, Na₂Ti₂O₄(OH)₂ nanotubes were synthesized by solvothermal method and their applications in the degradation of active Brilliant-blue (KN-R) solution were investigated. The experimental results revealed that the synthesized TiO₂ nanoparticles had a good crystallinity and a narrow size distribution (about 4–5 nm); the obtained H₂Ti₂O₅·H₂O, Na₂Ti₂O₄(OH)₂ were tubelike products with an average diameter of 20–30 and 200–300 nm length. The three catalysts we synthesized had some hydroxyl groups and the maximum absorption boundaries of the samples were all red-shifted, which indicated the samples had a promising prospect in photocatalysis.

The results of the photocatalytic experiments indicated that the photocatalytic activity of the samples was: TiO₂ > H₂Ti₂O₅·H₂O > Na₂Ti₂O₄(OH)₂, which was in good accordance with the fact of FTIR and UV–vis absorption spectra. The formation mechanism of these nanostructures was also discussed.     

Synthesis and Electrochemical Properties of Highly Crystallized CuV2O6 Nanowires

CuV₂O₆ nanowires were prepared via a simple hydrothermal route using NH₄VO₃ and Cu(NO₃)₂ as starting materials. The structures and electrochemical properties of CuV₂O₆ nanowires were characterized by means of X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and transmission electron microscopy(TEM). The results show that the CuV₂O₆ nanowires are about 100 nm in width and single crystalline grown along [001] direction. CuV₂O₆ nanowires delivered a high initial discharge capacity of 435 and 351 mA·h/g at current densities of 50 and 100 mA·h/g, respectively. The electrochemical kinetics of the CuV₂O₆ nanowires was also investigated by means of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS) and the poor rate performance was observed, which may be attributed to the low ion diffusion coefficient of the CuV₂O₆ nanowires.
