Structural characterization of CeO(2)-ZrO(2)/TiO(2) and V(2)O(5)/CeO(2)-ZrO(2)/TiO(2) mixed oxide catalysts by XRD, Raman spectroscopy, HREM, and other techniques

Structural characteristics of CeO(2)-ZrO(2)/TiO(2) (CZ/T) and V(2)O(5)/CeO(2)-ZrO(2)/TiO(2) (V/CZ/T) mixed oxide catalysts have been investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), BET surface area, Raman spectroscopy (RS), and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HREM) techniques. The CeO(2)-ZrO(2) (1:1 mole ratio) solid solution was deposited over a finely powdered TiO(2) support by a deposition precipitation method. A nominal 5 wt % V(2)O(5) was impregnated over the calcined (773 K) CZ/T mixed oxide carrier by a wet impregnation technique. The obtained CZ/T and V/CZ/T samples were further subjected to thermal treatments from 773 to 1073 K to understand the dispersion and temperature stability of these materials. In the case of CZ/T samples, the XRD results suggest the formation of different cubic and tetragonal Ce-Zr-oxide phases, Ce(0.75)Zr(0.25)O(2), Ce(0.6)Zr(0.4)O(2), Ce(0.5)Zr(0.5)O(2), and Ce(0.16)Zr(0.84)O(2) in varying proportions depending on the treatment temperature. With increasing calcination temperature from 773 to 1073 K, the intensity of the lines pertaining to cubic Ce(0.6)Zr(0.4)O(2) and Ce(0.5)Zr(0.5)O(2) phases increased at the expense of cubic Ce(0.75)Zr(0.25)O(2), indicating more incorporation of zirconia into the ceria lattice. The TiO(2) was mainly in the anatase form whose crystallite size also increased with increasing treatment temperature. A better crystallization and more incorporation of zirconia into the ceria lattice was noted when CZ/T was impregnated with V(2)O(5). However, no crystalline V(2)O(5) could be seen from both XRD and RS measurements. In particular, a preferential formation of CeVO(4) compound and an intense tetragonal Ce(0.16)Zr(0.84)O(2) phase were noted beyond 873 K. The HREM results indicate, in the case of CZ/T samples, a well-dispersed Ce-Zr-oxide of the size approximately 5 nm over the bigger crystals ( approximately 40 nm) of TiO(2) when treated at 873 K. The exact structural features of these crystals as determined by digital diffraction analysis of experimental images reveal that the Ce-Zr-oxides are mainly in the cubic fluorite geometry and the TiO(2) is in anatase form. A better crystallization of Ce-Zr-oxides ( approximately 8 nm) over the surface of bigger crystals of TiO(2) was noted at 1073 K. A further enhancement in the crystallite size and zirconia-rich tetragonal phase was noted in the case of V/CZ/T samples. Further, the structure of CeVO(4) formed was also clearly identified in conformity with XRD and RS results.     

Structural characterization of nanosized CeO(2)-SiO(2), CeO(2)-TiO(2), and CeO(2)-ZrO(2) catalysts by XRD, Raman, and HREM techniques

Structural characteristics of nanosized ceria-silica, ceria-titania, and ceria-zirconia mixed oxide catalysts have been investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, BET surface area, thermogravimetry, and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HREM). The effect of support oxides on the crystal modification of ceria cubic lattice was mainly focused. The investigated oxides were obtained by soft chemical routes with ultrahighly dilute solutions and were subjected to thermal treatments from 773 to 1073 K. The XRD results suggest that the CeO(2)-SiO(2) sample primarily consists of nanocrystalline CeO(2) on the amorphous SiO(2) surface. Both crystalline CeO(2) and TiO(2) anatase phases were noted in the case of CeO(2)-TiO(2) sample. Formation of cubic Ce(0.75)Zr(0.25)O(2) and Ce(0.6)Zr(0.4)O(2) (at 1073 K) were observed in the case of the CeO(2)-ZrO(2) sample. Raman measurements disclose the fluorite structure of ceria and the presence of oxygen vacancies/Ce(3+). The HREM results reveal well-dispersed CeO(2) nanocrystals over the amorphous SiO(2) matrix in the cases of CeO(2)-SiO(2), isolated CeO(2), and TiO(2) (anatase) nanocrystals, some overlapping regions in the case of CeO(2)-TiO(2), and nanosized CeO(2) and Ce-Zr oxides in the case of CeO(2)-ZrO(2) sample. The exact structural features of these crystals as determined by digital diffraction analysis of HREM experimental images reveal that the CeO(2) is mainly in cubic fluorite geometry. The oxygen storage capacity (OSC) as determined by thermogravimetry reveals that the OSC of the mixed oxide systems is more than that of pure CeO(2) and is system dependent.     

Structural characterization and oxidative dehydrogenation activity of V2O5/Ce(x)Zr(1-x)O2/SiO2 catalysts

The thermal stability of a nanosized Ce(x)Zr(1-x)O2 solid solution on a silica surface and the dispersion behavior of V2O5 over Ce(x)Zr(1-x)O2/SiO2 have been investigated using XRD, Raman spectroscopy, XPS, HREM, and BET surface area techniques. Oxidative dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene to styrene was performed as a test reaction to assess the usefulness of the VOx/Ce(x)Zr(1-x)O2/SiO2 catalyst. Ce(x)Zr(1-x)O2/SiO2 (1:1:2 mol ratio based on oxides) was synthesized through a soft-chemical route from ultrahigh dilute solutions by adopting a deposition coprecipitation technique. A theoretical monolayer equivalent to 10 wt % V2O5 was impregnated over the calcined Ce(x)Zr(1-x)O2/SiO2 sample (773 K) by an aqueous wet impregnation technique. The prepared V2O5/Ce(x)Zr(1-x)O2/SiO2 sample was subjected to thermal treatments from 773 to 1073 K. The XRD measurements indicate the presence of cubic Ce0.75Zr0.25O2 in the case of Ce(x)Zr(1-x)O2/SiO2, while cubic Ce0.5Zr0.5O2 and tetragonal Ce0.16Zr0.84O2 in the case of V2O5/Ce(x)Zr(1-x)O2/SiO2 when calcined at various temperatures. Dispersed vanadium oxide induces more incorporation of zirconium into the ceria lattice, thereby decreasing its lattice size and also accelerating the crystallization of Ce-Zr-O solid solutions at higher calcination temperatures. Further, it interacts selectively with the ceria portion of the composite oxide to form CeVO4. The RS measurements provide good evidence about the dispersed form of vanadium oxide and the CeVO4 compound. The HREM studies show the presence of small Ce-Zr-oxide particles of approximately 5 nm size over the surface of amorphous silica and corroborate with the results obtained from other techniques. The catalytic activity studies reveal the ability of vanadium oxide supported on Ce(x)Zr(1-x)O2/SiO2 to efficiently catalyze the ODH of ethylbenzene at normal atmospheric pressure. The remarkable ability of Ce(x)Zr(1-x)O2 to prevent the deactivation of supported vanadium oxide leading to stable activity in the time-on-stream experiments and high selectivity to styrene are other important observations.

A New Method of Calculating Pore Size Distribution: Analysis of Adsorption Isotherms of N(2) and CCl(4) for a Series of MCM-41 Mesoporous Silicas

The adsorption isotherms of N(2) gas at 77 K and CCl(4) vapor at 283.1(5), 298.1(5), and 308.1(5) K were measured for six samples of the mesoporous silicas having uniform cylindrical pores (MCM-41). The pore radii of the six samples (r(p)), which were evaluated from the alpha(s) plots of the N(2) isotherms, were 1.13, 1.29, 1.50, 1.65, 1.90, and 2.53 nm. The CCl(4) adsorption isotherms show that the capillary condensation occurs at the very narrow P/P(0) range. The core radii of the six adsorbents (r(c)), which were estimated from a comparison plot of the CCl(4) isotherm, were 0.90, 1.01, 1.28, 1.37, 1.60, and 2.17 nm. In the comparison plot, the standard CCl(4) isotherm for nonporous silica was used as the reference isotherm. It has been clarified that the Polanyi adsorption potential of capillary condensation is proportional to the reciprocal of the core radii: RT ln(P(0)/P)=5.37r(c)(-1) nm(-1), ln(P(0)/P)=2.17r(c)(-1) nm(-1) at 298.1(5) K, [A]. The statistical thickness of adsorbed CCl(4) on the curved surface (t((pore))), which was estimated from the difference between the pore radii and the core radii, was given by Eq. [B]: t((pore))=0.188+0.336(P/P(0))+0.382(P/P(0))(2) nm [B], (0.08

Preparation and Characterization of Forsterite (Mg2SiO4) Xerogels

Mg2SiO4 gels were prepared from alkoxide precursors, and the formation of the forsterite crystal phase was studied after heat treatments up to 1200°C. Prehydrolyzed TEOS in solution with 2-methoxyethanol was mixed with Mg(OEt)2, and the solution was hydrolyzed using excess water. The resultant gels were dried at 100°C to form xerogels which were subsequently powdered. These powders were characterized using thermal analysis (DTA and TGA), surface area analysis (BET), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM).DTA and XRD indicated that forsterite crystallized at 770°C, and by 1000°C the powders were predominantly crystalline. BET gave powder surface areas between 400 and 550 m2 g–1. TEM revealed angular particles with sizes between 0.2 and 2 m. The low temperature of crystallization of forsterite indicates a high degree of intimate mixing between the precursor alkoxides, although XRD indicated some degree of inhomogeneity.

Porous TiO(2)/SiO(2) composite prepared using PEG as template direction reagent with assistance of supercritical CO(2)

Titania-silica mesoporous composites have been prepared using polyethylene glycol (PEG) 20,000 as a template direction reagent with the assistance of supercritical carbon dioxide (SC CO(2)). For this preparation method, the composite precursors of tetrabutyl titanate (TBTT) and tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) were dissolved in supercritical CO(2) and impregnated into PEG 20,000 using SC CO(2) as swelling agent and carrier. After removal of the PEG template by calcination in air at suitable temperatures, porous titania-silica composites were obtained. Effects of CO(2) pressure and temperature have been studied on the impregnation ratio during the supercritical fluid condition. The composite products were characterized by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray diffraction (XRD), FTIR spectroscopy, nitrogen sorption-desorption experiments, scanning electronic microscope (SEM), and transmission electron microscope (TEM). XRD and nitrogen sorption-desorption experimental results indicate that the titania-silica composite crystallized in anatase phase and has a preferable BET surface area up to 301.98 m(2)/g. It was also demonstrated that the microstructure and macroproperty of TiO(2)/SiO(2) composites depend strongly on the experimental pressure during the impregnation process in SC CO(2). At suitable CO(2) pressure, silica even can be found in a single crystalline structure in nature by observation of TEM. At the same time, SEM indicates that the composite product existed in a spheric form or a cubic form inserted with many holes. So this work provides a new route to control and obtain the special micrography of TiO(2)/SiO(2) composites with the aid of suitable polymer templates in supercritical CO(2).     

Optical and photocatalytic properties of heavily F(-)-doped SnO2 nanocrystals by a novel single-source precursor approach

Heavily F-doped SnO(2) nanocrystals were successfully prepared by a novel synthetic approach involving low-temperature oxidation of a Sn(2+)-containing fluoride complex KSnF(3) as the single-source precursor with H(2)O(2). The F-doped SnO(2) powder was characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, TG-MS, BET surface area, diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, XPS, PL, FTIR spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, EPR spectroscopy, SEM, and TEM. Broadening of the diffracted peaks, signifying the low crystallite size of the products, was quite evident in the powder X-ray diffraction pattern of SnO(2) obtained from KSnF(3). It was indexed in a tetragonal unit cell with lattice constants a = 4.7106 (1) ? and c = 3.1970 (1) ?. Agglomeration of particles, with an average diameter of 5-7 nm, was observed in the TEM images whose spotwise EDX analysis indicated the presence of fluoride ions. In the core level high-resolution F 1s spectrum, the peak observed at 685.08 eV was fitted by the Gaussian profile yielding the fluoride ion concentration to be 21.23% in the SnO(2) lattice. Such a high fluoride ion concentration is reported for the first time in powders. SnO(2):F nanocrystals showed greater thermal stability up to 300 °C when heated in a thermobalance under flowing helium, after which generation of small quantities of HF was observed in the TG coupled mass spectrometry analysis. The band gap value, estimated from the Kubelka-Munk function, showed a large shift from 3.52 to 3.87 eV on fluoride ion doping, as observed in the diffuse reflectance spectrum. Such a large shift was corroborated to the overdoped situation due to the Moss-Burstein effect with an increase in the carrier concentration. In the photoluminescence (PL) spectrum, SnO(2):F nanocrystals exhibited a broad green emission arising from the singly ionized oxygen vacancies created due to higher dopant concentration. The evidence for singly ionized vacancies was arrived from the presence of a signal with a g value of 1.98 in the ESR spectrum of SnO(2):F at room temperature. The disordered nature of the rutile lattice and the enormous oxygen vacancies created due to fluoride ion doping were evident from the broad bands observed at 455, 588, and 874 cm(-1) in the room-temperature Raman spectrum of SnO(2):F. As the consequence of the oxygen vacancies, F-doped SnO(2) was examined for the function as a photocatalyst in the degradation of aqueous RhB dye solution under UV irradiation. A very high photocatalytic efficiency was observed for the F-doped SnO(2) nanocrystals as compared to pure SnO(2). The BET surface area of pure SnO(2) was quite high (207.81 m(2)/g) as compared to the F-doped SnO(2) nanocrystals (45.16 m(2)/g). Pore size analysis showed a mean pore diameter of 1.97 and 13.97 nm for the pure and doped samples. The increased photocatalytic efficiency was related to the very high concentration of oxygen vacancies in SnO(2) induced by F doping.     

Effect of EtOH/MgCl(2) molar ratios on the catalytic properties of MgCl(2)-SiO(2)/TiCl(4) Ziegler-Natta catalyst for ethylene polymerization

MgCl(2)-SiO(2)/TiCl(4) Ziegler-Natta catalysts for ethylene polymerization were prepared by impregnation of MgCl(2) on SiO(2) in heptane and further treatment with TiCl(4). MgCl(2)·nEtOH adduct solutions were prepared with various EtOH/MgCl(2) molar ratios for preparation of the MgCl(2)-supported and MgCl(2)-SiO(2)-supported catalysts in order to investigate the effect on polymerization performance of both catalyst systems. The catalytic activities for ethylene polymerization decreased markedly with increased molar ratios of [EtOH]/[MgCl(2)] for the MgCl(2)-supported catalysts, while for the bi-supported catalysts, the activities only decreased slightly. The MgCl(2)-SiO(2)-supported catalyst had relatively constant activity, independent of the [EtOH]/[MgCl(2)] ratio. The lower [EtOH]/[MgCl(2)] in MgCl(2)-supported catalyst exhibited better catalytic activity. However, for the MgCl(2)-SiO(2)-supported catalyst, MgCl(2) can agglomerate on the SiO(2) surface at low [EtOH]/[MgCl(2)] thus not being not suitable for TiCl(4) loading. It was found that the optimized [EtOH]/[MgCl(2)] value for preparation of bi-supported catalysts having high activity and good spherical morphology with little agglomerated MgCl(2) was 7. Morphological studies indicated that MgCl(2)-SiO(2)-supported catalysts have good morphology with spherical shapes that retain the morphology of SiO(2). The BET measurement revealed that pore size is the key parameter dictating polymerization activity. The TGA profiles of the bi-supported catalyst also confirmed that it was more stable than the mono-supported catalyst, especially in the ethanol removal region.     

SiO2/graphene composite for highly selective adsorption of Pb(II) ion

SiO(2)/graphene composite was prepared through a simple two-step reaction, including the preparation of SiO(2)/graphene oxide and the reduction of graphene oxide (GO). The composite was characterized by UV-Vis spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and what is more, the adsorption behavior of as-synthesized SiO(2)/graphene composite was investigated. It was interestingly found that the composite shows high efficiency and high selectivity toward Pb(II) ion. The maximum adsorption capacity of SiO(2)/graphene composite for Pb(II) ion was found to be 113.6 mg g(-1), which was much higher than that of bare SiO(2) nanoparticles. The results indicated that SiO(2)/graphene composite with high adsorption efficiency and fast adsorption equilibrium can be used as a practical adsorbent for Pb(II) ion.     

Structure and stability of (TiO2)n, (SiO2)n, and mixed Ti(m)Si(n-m)O(2n) [n = 2-5, m = 1 to (n - 1)] clusters

Structures, energetics, and vibrational spectra are investigated for small pure (TiO(2))(n), (SiO(2))(n), and mixed Ti(m)Si(n-m)O(2n) [n = 2-5, m = 1 to (n - 1)] oxide clusters by density functional theory (DFT). The BP86/ATZP level of theory is employed to obtain constitutional isomers of the oxide clusters. In accordance with previous studies, our calculations show three-dimensional compact structures are preferred for pure (TiO(2))(n) with oxo-stabilized higher hexavalent states, and linear chain structures are favored for pure (SiO(2))(n) with tetravalent states. However, the herein theoretically first reported mixed Ti(m)Si(n-m)O(2n) oxide clusters prefer either three-dimensional compact or linear chain structures depending upon the stoichiometry of the compound. Vibrational analysis of the important modes of some highly stable structures is provided. Coupled-cluster single and double excitation (with triples) [CCSD(T)] computed energy gaps for the TiO(2) dimers compare well with results from previous study. Excitation energies are computed by use of time-dependent (TD) DFT and equation-of-motion coupled-cluster calculations with singles and doubles (EOM-CCSD) for the most stable isomers.

Tin oxide-surface modified anatase titanium(IV) dioxide with enhanced UV-light photocatalytic activity

[Sn(acac)(2)]Cl(2) is chemisorbed on the surfaces of anatase TiO(2)via ion-exchange between the complex ions and H(+) released from the surface Ti-OH groups without liberation of the acetylacetonate ligand (Sn(acac)(2)/TiO(2)). The post-heating at 873 K in air forms tin oxide species on the TiO(2) surface in a highly dispersed state on a molecular scale ((SnO(2))(m)/TiO(2)). A low level of this p block metal oxide surface modification (~0.007 Sn ions nm(-2)) accelerates the UV-light-activities for the liquid- and gas-phase reactions, whereas in contrast to the surface modification with d block metal oxides such as FeO(x) and NiO, no visible-light response is induced. Electrochemical measurements and first principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations for (SnO(2))(m)/TiO(2) model clusters (m = 1, 2) indicate that the bulk (TiO(2))-to-surface interfacial electron transfer (BS-IET) enhances charge separation and the following electron transfer to O(2) to increase the photocatalytic activity.     

Synthesis, amino-functionalization of mesoporous silica and its adsorption of Cr(VI)

Mesoporous silica materials with a centered rectangular symmetry (cmm) have been synthesized through a facile direct-templating method using tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) and amphiphilic block co-polymers Pluronic P123 under acidic conditions. The amino groups have been grafted to as-synthesized mesoporous silica by [1-(2-amino-ethyl)-3-aminopropyl]trimethoxysilane (AAPTS). Thus obtained amino-functionalized mesoporous silica (denoted as NN-silica) was used for sequestration of Cr(VI) from aqueous solution. After sequestration of Cr(VI), the sample was denoted as Cr(VI)-silica. The parent mesoporous silica, NN-silica and Cr(VI)-silica were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and N(2) adsorption-desorption isotherms. XRD and TEM results confirm that the structure of these samples is centered rectangular symmetry (cmm). N(2) adsorption-desorption isotherms show that there is a remarkable decrease in surface area and pore volume for NN-silica (S(BET)=54.5 m(2)g(-1), V(P)=0.09 cm(3)g(-1)) and Cr(VI)-silica (S(BET)=53.2 m(2)g(-1), V(P)=0.07 cm(3)g(-1)) compared to the parent mesoporous silica (S(BET)=444.0 m(2)g(-1), V(P)=0.71 cm(3)g(-1)). The BJH desorption average diameter of NN-silica, Cr(VI)-silica and the parent mesoporous silica is 4.40 nm, 4.07 nm and 5.11 nm, respectively. The results reveal the channels of as-synthesized mesoporous silica are essentially grafted with abundant amino groups and loaded with Cr(VI). The adsorption experiment results show that the functionalized mesoporous silica materials possess an increased Cr(VI) adsorption capacity and the maximum Cr(VI) loadings at 25, 35 and 45 degrees C can reach 2.28, 2.86 and 3.32 mmol/g, respectively.

Tin oxide (SnO2) nanoparticles/electrospun carbon nanofibers (CNFs) heterostructures: controlled fabrication and high capacitive behavior

Tin oxide (SnO(2))/carbon nanofibers (CNFs) heterostructures were fabricated by combining the versatility of the electrospinning technique and template-free solvent-thermal process. The results revealed that the SnO(2) nanostructures were successfully grown on the primary electrospun carbon nanofibers substrates. And, the coverage density of SnO(2) nanoparticles coating on the surface of the CNFs could be controlled by simply adjusting the mass ratio of CNFs to SnCl(4)·5H(2)O in the precursor during the solvent-thermal process for the fabrication of SnO(2)/CNFs heterostructures. The electrochemical performances of the SnO(2)/CNFs heterostructures as the electrode materials for supercapacitors were evaluated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and galvanostatic charge-discharge measurement in 1 M H(2)SO(4) solution. At different scan rates, all the samples with different coverage densities of SnO(2) showed excellent capacitance behavior. And, the sample CS2 (the mass ratio of CNFs to SnCl(4)·5H(2)O reached 1:7) exhibited a maximum specific capacitance of 187 F/g at a scan rate of 20 mV/s. Moreover, after 1000 cycles, the specific capacitance retention of this sample was over 95%. The high capacitive behavior could be ascribed to the low resistance of SnO(2)/CNFs heterostructures and rapid transport of the electrolyte ions from bulk solution to the surface of SnO(2).
