TiO2和Mg-Fe型类水滑石特征电离/络合平衡常数研究

The intrinsic surface reaction constants, pKa1^int, pKa2^int, p^＊KC^int and p^＊KA^int , were evaluated by a modifieddouble extrapolation （MDE） for TiO2 without structural charge and Mg-Fe hydrotalcite-like compounds （HTlc） with structural charge, respectively. The results of intrinsic surface reaction constants for TiO2 were compared with those obtained by class double extrapolation （CDE） in literature. Furthermore, the values of intrinsic surface reaction constants obtained by MDE were used to simulate the charging behaviors of the materials. The following conclusions were obtained. For TiO2 without structural charge, the pKa1^int and pKa2^int evaluated by MDE are equal to those by CDE, however the p^＊KC^int and p^＊KA^int evaluated by MDE are much different from those by CDE. In principle, the results of the p^＊KC^int and p^＊KA^int evaluated by MDE are more accurate than those by CDE. The values of intrinsic surface reaction constants obtained by MDE can excellently simulate the charging curves for TiO2 with the triple layer model （TLM）. For HTlc with positive structural charge, the results of ^＊KC^int=0 and ^＊KA^int →∞ were obtained by MDE, which means the inert electrolyte chemical binding does not exist; the point of zero net charge （PZNC） of c-independence also exist as the same as solid without structural charge, and the PHPZNC obtained by the acid-base titration can excellently be simulated and the surface charging tendency can be simulated to a great extent using the pKa1^int and pKa2^int evaluated by MDE and the diffuse layer model （DLM）.     

Zn-Al类水滑石结构正电荷对内禀电离平衡常数的影响

采用电势滴定(potentiometric titration,PT)法测定了Zn-Al类水滑石(HTlc)的零净电荷点(pHPZNC);利用电势滴定数据直接计算得到Zn-Al HTlc的内禀电离平衡常数(pKa2int)和质子吸附自由能(G0ads,2);研究了结构电荷密度(σp)对pKa2int 和G0ads,2的影响.结果表明,随σp增加, pKa2int 和G0ads,2数值均降低,说明σp越大,带正电荷的HTlc与H＋结合力越低,HTlc去质子能力越强,H＋游离出HTlc表面的趋势越大.研究发现，HTlc的pKa2int与pHPZNC之间符合关系式: pKa2int =1.372pHPZNC－3.328.     

The Isoelectric Point and the Points of Zero Charge of Fe-Al-Mg Hydrotalcite-like Compounds

The relation of the isoelectric point (IEP) and the point of zero net charge (PZNC) of the hydrotalcite-like compounds was discussed. It was found that the IEP does not equal to the PZNC and the IEP is higher than the PZNC. The structural positive charges existing in the HTlc,which cause the difference between the IEP and the PZNC. The effects of the structural positive charges of the HTlc on its IEP and PZNC are the same as the specific adsorption of metal cations.

Parameter Estimation for the Constant Capacitance Surface Complexation Model: Analysis of Parameter Interdependencies

Results of extensive application of the 2-pK constant capacitance surface complexation model (CCM) to surface charge data of a range of minerals in 0.1Melectrolytes are summarized where the program FITEQL has simultaneously been used to study the interdependence of the involved optimized parameters.To illustrate representative results, surface complexation and goodness of fit parameters are given as a function of the capacitance value (C). For all (ca. 150) tested data sets, one of three patterns is observed, two of which do not allow a unique parameter set to be obtained.The results indicate that the optimized site density parameter is relatively insensitive to a wide variation ofC; optimized site density is rather low in this range of (higher)Cand tends toward maximum proton uptake in the respective data set which in turn will be close to sometimes experimentally observed saturation levels. At low and with further decreasingCa steep increase of site density may occur; in this case, ΔpK_astrongly increases after a ΔpK_aminimum. Alternatively at lowC, ΔpK_amay continue to decrease and site density decreases simultaneously after a site density maximum. The observed patterns can be explained by the constraint ofCon the electrostatic correction factor.Linear correlation coefficients (which are very useful parameters but do not receive much attention) show that in the region of lowC, the optimized parameters become fully correlated, which finally causes nonconvergence in parameter optimization. In the region where the optimized site density is not significantly affected by a decrease inCthe optimized parameters are more weakly correlated. When site concentration is co-optimized high correlation between adjustable parameters suggests that it is preferable to have an estimate for this parameter.Overall, it can be stated that substantial difficulties were observed in the effort to obtain unique (and thus meaningful) parameters for the CCM in about 60% of the data sets treated.

The Isoelectric Point of an Exotic Oxide: Tellurium (IV) Oxide

The pH-dependent surface charging of tellurium (IV) oxide has been studied. The isoelectric point (IEP) of tellurium (IV) oxide was determined by microelectrophoresis in various 1-1 electrolytes over a concentration range of 0.001–0.1 M. In all electrolytes studied and irrespective of their concentration the zeta potential of TeO₂ was negative over the pH range 3–12. In other words the IEP of TeO₂ is at pH below 3 (if any). TeO₂ specifically adsorbs ionic surfactants, and their presence strongly affects the zeta potential. In contrast the effect of multivalent inorganic ions on the zeta potential of TeO₂ is rather insignificant (no shift in the IEP). In this respect TeO₂ is very different from metal oxides.     

Effects of the Pt Shell Thickness on the Oxygen Reduction Reaction on a Well-Defined Pd@Pt Core-Shell Model Surface

The effect of the Pt shell thickness on the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) of a Pd@Pt core-shell catalyst was studied using surface science technics and computational approaches. We found Pt shells on Pd rods to be negatively charged because of charge transfer from the Pd substrate when the shell thicknesses were 0.5 or 1 monolayer (ML). The activities of the ORR of the model surface with a Pt shell of 0.5 or 1 ML were similar and more than twice the activities of a Pt/C or Pt rod. The relationship between the ORR activity and the thickness of the Pt shell was the exact opposite of the relationship between the Pt binding energy and the Pt shell thickness. The indication was that more negatively charged Pt had higher ORR activity. Density functional theory calculations confirmed that a single layer of Pt atoms located on Pd was negatively charged compared to pure Pt and resulted in a lower barrier to the rate-limiting step of the ORR.     

Low‐Temperature Atomic Layer Deposition of Copper Metal Thin Films: Self‐Limiting Surface Reaction of Copper Dimethylamino‐2‐propoxide with Diethylzinc

Patterned copper thin films of Cu nanotubes (diameter 150 nm, length 12 μm) were fabricated.

     

Double Layer at the Pt(111)–Aqueous Electrolyte Interface: Potential of Zero Charge and Anomalous Gouy–Chapman Screening

We report, for the first time, the observation of a Gouy–Chapman capacitance minimum at the potential of zero charge of the Pt(111)‐aqueous perchlorate electrolyte interface. The potential of zero charge of 0.3 V vs. NHE agrees very well with earlier values obtained by different methods. The observation of the potential of zero charge of this interface requires a specific pH (pH 4) and anomalously low electrolyte concentrations (<10^?3 m ). By comparison to gold and mercury double‐layer data, we conclude that the diffuse double layer structure at the Pt(111)‐electrolyte interface deviates significantly from the Gouy–Chapman theory in the sense that the electrostatic screening is much better than predicted by purely electrostatic mean‐field Poisson–Boltzmann theory.

Anharmonic Thermal Motion Modelling in the Experimental XRD Charge Density Determination of 1-Methyluracil at T = 23 K

The experimental electron density distribution (EDD) of 1-methyluracil (1-MUR) was obtained by single crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD) experiments at 23 K. Four different structural models fitting an extensive set of XRD data to a resolution of (sinθ/λ)_max = 1.143 Å⁻¹ are compared. Two of the models include anharmonic temperature factors, whose inclusion is supported by the Hamilton test at a 99.95% level of confidence. Positive Fourier residuals up to 0.5 eÅ^–3 in magnitude were found close to the methyl group and in the region of hydrogen bonds. Residual density analysis (RDA) and molecular dynamics simulations in the solid-state demonstrate that these residuals can be likely attributed to unresolved disorder, possibly dynamical and long–range in nature. Atomic volumes and charges, molecular moments up to hexadecapoles, as well as maps of the molecular electrostatic potential were obtained from distributed multipole analysis of the EDD. The derived electrostatic properties neither depend on the details of the multipole model, nor are significantly affected by the explicit inclusion of anharmonicity in the least–squares model. The distribution of atomic charges in 1-MUR is not affected by the crystal environment in a significant way. The quality of experimental findings is discussed in light of in-crystal and gas-phase quantum simulations.

Recent advances in the use of graphene-family nanoadsorbents for removal of toxic pollutants from wastewater

Adsorption technology is widely considered as the most promising and robust method of purifying water at low cost and with high-efficiency. Carbon-based materials have been extensively explored for adsorption applications because of their good chemical stability, structural diversity, low density, and suitability for large scale production. Graphene – a single atomic layer of graphite – is the newest member in the family of carbon allotropes and has emerged as the “celeb” material of the 21st century. Since its discovery in 2004 by Novoselov, Geim and co-workers, graphene has attracted increased attention in a wide range of applications due to its unprecedented electrical, mechanical, thermal, optical and transport properties. Graphene's infinitely high surface-to-volume ratio has resulted in a large number of investigations to study its application as a potential adsorbent for water purification. More recently, other graphene related materials such as graphene oxide, reduced graphene oxide, and few-layered graphene oxide sheets, as well as nanocomposites of graphene materials have also emerged as a promising group of adsorbent for the removal of various environmental pollutants from waste effluents. In this review article, we present a synthesis of the current knowledge available on this broad and versatile family of graphene nanomaterials for removal of dyes, potentially toxic elements, phenolic compounds and other organic chemicals from aquatic systems. The challenges involved in the development of these novel nanoadsorbents for decontamination of wastewaters have also been examined to help identify future directions for this emerging field to continue to grow.     

Carbon nanotubes as solid-phase extraction sorbents prior to atomic spectrometric determination of metal species: A review

New materials have significant impact on the development of new methods and instrumentation for chemical analysis. From the discovery of carbon nanotubes in 1991, single and multi-walled carbon nanotubes – due to their high adsorption and desorption capacities – have been employed as sorption substrates in solid-phase extraction for the preconcentration of metal species from diverse matrices. Looking for successive improvements in sensitivity and selectivity, in the past few years, carbon nanotubes have been utilized as sorbents for solid phase extraction in three different ways: like as-grown, oxidized and functionalized nanotubes. In the present paper, an overview of the recent trends in the use of carbon nanotubes for solid phase extraction of metal species in environmental, biological and food samples is presented. The determination procedures involved the adsorption of metals on the nanotube surface, their quantitative desorption and subsequent measurement by means of atomic spectrometric techniques such as flame atomic absorption spectrometry, electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry or inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry/mass spectrometry, among others. Synthesis, purification and types of carbon nanotubes, as well as the diverse chemical and physical strategies for their functionalization are described. Based on 140 references, the performance and general properties of the applications of solid phase extraction based on carbon nanotubes for metal species atomic spectrometric determination are discussed.
