A highly selective magnetic sensor with functionalized Fe/Fe3O4 nanoparticles for detection of Pb2+

A magnetic sensor for detection of Pb~(2+) has been developed based on Fe/Fe_3O_4 nanoparticles modified by3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)propionic acid(DHCA). The carboxyl groups of DHCA have a strong affinity to coordination behavior of Pb~(2+) thus inducing the transformation of Fe/Fe_3O_4 nanoparticles from a dispersed to an aggregated state with a corresponding decrease, then increase in transverse relaxation time(T_2) of the surrounding water protons. Upon addition of the different concentrations of Pb~(2+) to an aq. solution of DHCA functionalized Fe/Fe_3O_4 nanoparticles(DHCA-Fe/Fe_3O_4 NPs)([Fe] = 90 mmol/L), the change of T_2 values display a good linear relationship with the concentration of Pb~(2+) from 40 μmol/L to 100 μmol/L and from 130 μmol/L to 200 μmol/L, respectively. Owing to the especially strong interaction between DHCA and Pb~(2+), DHCA-Fe/Fe_3O_4 NPs exhibited a high selectivity over other metal ions.

在连续流动的固定床反应装置上,考察了Ni/Al2O3催化剂上CH4三重整反应中催化剂床层的温度分布。实验在常压、750℃~950℃、2000h-1~20000h-1下进行,研究了外控炉温、空速和进料组成对催化剂床层温度分布的影响。结果表明,催化剂床层中的温度梯度较甲烷部分氧化反应平缓,在CH4/CO2/H2O/O2=50/12.5/12.5/25（摩尔比）、20000h-1下,催化剂床层中入口处温度比炉温高约80℃,出口处温度与器壁温度相当。空速越低,催化剂床层入口处温度(tmax)与炉温之差Δtmax越小(20000h-1时,Δtmax=80℃;2000h-1时,Δtmax=30℃)。当原料气中不含O2时,催化剂床层入口处没有观测到温度骤升的现象。催化剂床层温度分布出现“低谷”现象,温度最低点(tmin)比炉温低30℃~40℃。根据温度分布曲线,大体可将催化剂床层分为三个区域：富氧区、贫氧区和无氧区。富氧区内只发生燃烧反应,贫氧区内发生重整反应和部分氧化反应,无氧区内只发生重整反应。     

Co3O4/CeO2 CO氧化的原位红外光谱研究

采用沉淀氧化法制备了Co₃O₄/CeO₂催化剂。分别在干、湿条件下进行了一氧化碳氧化反应研究。运用FT-IR表征手段,在钴铈复合氧化物上进行了CO吸附及CO/O₂共吸附研究。结果表明,与纯的Co₃O₄样品相比,Co₃O₄/CeO₂具有明显的抗湿气能力。Co₃O₄/CeO₂催化剂在进行CO氧化时,表面形成了类碳酸盐物种。当环境温度低于453 K时,催化剂上类碳酸盐的生成与形成类碳酸盐物种后受热分解存在着动态平衡。当环境温度高于493 K,催化剂上生成的类碳酸盐物全部受热分解。氧化铈的加入提高了催化剂的抗湿气性能。较小粒径的Co₃O₄与CeO₂产生的强相互作用可使CeO₂向Co₃O₄提供氧,因而间接提供了CO氧化需要的氧。     

A parametric study of methane decomposition into carbon nanotubes over 8Co-2Mo/Al2O3 catalyst

The effects of reaction temperature, partial pressure of methane, catalyst weight and gas hourly space velocity (GHSV) on methane decomposition were reported. The decomposition reaction was performed in a vertical fixed-bed reactor over 8Co-2Mo/Al 2 O 3 catalyst. The experimental results show that these four process parameters studied had vital effects on carbon yield. As revealed by the electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy analyses, the reaction temperature and GHSV governed the average diameter, the diameter distribution and the degree of graphitization of the synthesized carbon nanotubes (CNTs). Also, an evidence is presented to show that higher temperatures and higher GHSV favored the formation of better-graphitized CNTs with larger diameters.     

Improvement on physical properties of polyethersulfone membranes modified by poly(1‐vinylpyrrolidone) grafted magnetic Fe3O4@SiO2 nanoparticles

Polyethersulfone (PES) and poly(1‐vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) were used to prepare ultrafiltration membranes with grafted Fe₃O₄ magnetic nanoparticles (PVP‐g‐Fe₃O₄@SiO₂). The structure of synthesized PVP‐g‐Fe₃O₄@SiO₂ was confirmed by FT‐IR and SEM analysis. Physical properties of blend membranes such as thermal resistance, Tensile strength, water uptake, and hydrophilicity were also investigated. Blended membranes of PES/PVP‐g‐Fe₃O₄@SiO₂ have exhibited higher thermal resistance due to increasing the modified nanoparticle content. The hydrophilicity of the synthesized PES/PVP‐g‐Fe₃O₄@SiO₂ membranes also improved by increasing the PVP‐g‐Fe₃O₄@SiO₂ content. As expected, increasing the hydrophilicity of blended membrane, caused enhancement of fouling resistance in membranes. Results showed that the content of PVP‐g‐Fe₃O₄@SiO₂ has different effects on the properties of synthesized composite membranes. Despite increasing the content of PVP‐g‐Fe₃O₄@SiO₂ has a negative effect on elongation, positive effects on maximum stress was observed. Moreover, the water uptake of synthesized membranes was significantly enhanced in comparison to other similar studies.

In this research, Fe₃O₄/ZnO magnetic core-shell nanoparticles (Fe₃O₄/ZnO MCNPs) were synthesized through a green method using Petasites hybridus rhizome water extract as a reducing and stabilizing agent. The morphology and size of the Fe₃O₄/ZnO MCNPs was identified by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) analysis. The catalytic activity of the Fe₃O₄/ZnO MCNPs was evaluated in the efficient and green preparation of pyran derivatives in excellent yield using three-component reactions of dimedone, aldehydes, and malononitrile in ethanol at room temperature. The ability of some synthesized compounds to scavenge the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical was measured and the results proved this observation. Moreover, the antimicrobial activity of some synthesized compounds was proved by employing the disk diffusion test on Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The results for the disk diffusion test showed that compounds ( 4c, 4d, 4f and 4g ) prevented bacterial growth.

This paper reports the green and in situ preparation of Fe₃O₄@SiO₂‐Ag magnetic nanocatalyst synthesized using safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) flower extract without the addition of any stabilizers or surfactants.

The main factors such as pH, temperature and amount of catalyst influencing the nanocatalyst performance were studied. The apparent rate constants for 4‐NP, MO and MB reduction were calculated, being 0.756 min^?1, 0.064 s^?1 and 0.09 s^?1, respectively. The catalyst was recovered using an external magnet and reused several times with negligible loss of catalytic activity. The as‐synthesized nanoparticles were characterized using powder X‐ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, UV–visible, Fourier transform infrared and inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopies, dynamic light scattering and vibrating sample magnetometry.

The residues of organophosphorus pesticide(OPs)on fruits and vegetables pose a threat to human health,so it is very meaningful to explore simple and fast detect methods for OPs residual.In this work,nickel ferrite/nickel oxide nanoparticles co-loaded three-dimensional reduced graphene oxide(3DRGONiFe2O4/NiO NPs),as a new low cost nanocomposite,was prepared.Based on its high performance mimetic peroxidase activity,a colorimetric method for the detection of OPs has been developed.Dichlorvos was chosen as model compounds to evaluate the detection performance.The detection linear range for dichlorvos is from 50μg/mL to 2.5×10^4μg/mL with a detection limit of 10μg/mL.Furthermore,a test paper can be developed based on the 3 DRGO-NiFe2O4/NiO NPs for visual detection of dichlorvos,and the image information of the paper sensor can be converted into digital signal and quantitative detection by a smartphone.Notably,this method can also be used to detect dichlorvos in real samples,including vegetables and fruits.Thus,the developed naked assay holds great potential in simple,inexpensive and rapid detection of OPs in fruit and vegetable samples.     

Synthesis and characterization of a novel and green rod-like magnetic ZnS/CuFe2O4/agar organometallic hybrid catalyst for the synthesis of biologically-active 2-amino-tetrahydro-4H-chromene-3-carbonitrile derivatives

The magnetic biocompatible rod-like ZnS/CuFe₂O₄/agar organometallic hybrid catalyst was designed and prepared based on a natural macromolecule (agar) through a green and convenient method using inexpensive, nontoxic, and easily available substances. Then, the as-prepared catalyst was characterized by several techniques such as Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray analysis, scanning electron microscopy image, transmission electron microscopy, vibrating sample magnetometry curve, X-ray diffraction pattern, and thermogravimetric analysis. Eventually, the catalytic application of the ZnS/CuFe₂O₄/agar nanobiocomposite was assessed in sequential Knoevenagel condensation–Michael addition reaction of dimedone, malononitrile, and different substituted aromatic aldehydes for the synthesis of 2-amino-tetrahydro-4H-chromene-3-carbonitrile derivatives. Some notable strengths of this environmentally benign catalyst include simplicity of catalyst preparation and separation, affording desired products with satisfactory yields (81%–97%) in very short reaction times (3–18 min), and with no need for complicated work-up processes. Experimental tests showed that the catalyst can be successfully reused after five sequential runs without significant reduction in its catalytic efficiency.
