Stability and electronic properties of carbon in α-Al2O3

The stability and electronic properties of carbon in α-Al₂O₃ are investigated using density functional theory. In the host lattice, the substitutional C prefers the Al site under the O-rich conditions, whereas the O site is preferred by carbon under the Al-rich conditions. The calculated results predict a direct relationship between the thermodynamic and optical transition levels with the degree of the local distortion induced by C in the alumina lattice. We also find C at the O site acts as a charge compensator to stabilize the F⁺ center, thereby enhancing the TL signal at 465 K. Also, C at Al site can serve as electron traps for TL emission process in α-Al₂O₃.

Electronic structure of α-Al2O3 slabs: A local environment study

In this work we performed an ab initio/Density Functional Theory (DFT) study of structural and electronic properties of the (0 0 1) α-Al₂O₃ surface. For this study we used two methods with different basis set: the Full-Potential Augmented Plane Wave plus local orbital (FP-APW+lo) and a linear combination of numerical localized atomic orbital basis sets, employing the WIEN2k code and the SIESTA code, respectively. In order to calculate the structural and electronic properties of the reconstructed surface, we calculated the final equilibrium atomic position with the SIESTA code and then the electric-field gradient (EFG) at Al sites was calculated with the FP-APW+lo code using the optimized positions. Using this procedure we found equilibrium structures with comparative lower energy than those obtained using only the FP-APW+lo method. The EFG tensor and the local structure for Al were studied as a function of the depth from the surface for the relaxed structures. We found that distances down to 6 Å from the surface are sufficient to converge the EFG and the Al–O distances to bulk values. The predicted bulk EFG at the Al site is in good agreement with available experimental values. These results can be used for local probes purposes, e.g., in the case of doping, with important sensitivity for probes located close to the top of the surface, in particular for distances smaller than 6 Å.

Improving protein resistance of α-Al2O3 membranes by modification with POEGMA brushes

A kind of protein-resistant ceramic membrane is prepared by grafting poly(oligo (ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate) (POEGMA) brushes onto the surfaces and pore walls of α-Al₂O₃ membrane (AM) by surface-initiated atom-transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP). Contact-angle, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) were measured to confirm that the surfaces and pore walls of the ceramic porous membranes have been modified by the brushes with this method successfully. The protein interaction behavior with the POEGMA modified membranes (AM-POEGMA) was studied by the model protein of bovine serum albumin (BSA). A protein-resistant mechanism of AM-POEGMA was proposed to describe an interesting phenomenon discovered in the filtration experiment, in which the initial flux filtrating BSA solution is higher than the pure water flux. The fouling of AM-POEGMA was easier to remove than AM for the action of POEGMA brushes, indicated that the ceramic porous membranes modified with POEGMA brushes exhibit excellent protein resistance.

A deep insight into arsenic adsorption over γ-Al2O3 in the presence of SO2/NO

Arsenic is easily evaporated during coal combustion, which not only raises serious environmental concerns but also results in the deactivation of catalyst in selective catalytic reduction (SCR) systems. It is a promising method to use sorbents for the capture of arsenic vapors (As₂O₃(g)) before As-containing flue gas entering SCR catalyst. However, arsenic has a strong affinity with sulfur in coal and SO₂ in the coal combustion flue gas strongly suppresses As₂O₃(g) capture by typical Ca/Fe-based sorbents. This study estimated the selective capture of As₂O₃(g) by γ-Al₂O₃ and the effects of SO₂ and NO on the arsenic adsorption were investigated. The results showed that As₂O₃(g) adsorption over γ-Al₂O₃ was effectively conducted at temperatures ranging from 300 to 400 °C. In the reacted γ-Al₂O₃, arsenic was predominantly in the form of As³⁺ through reactions with Al-O bonds and positive charged alumina ions. SO₂ was slightly adsorbed on γ-Al₂O₃, which had a limited effect on arsenic adsorption. The adsorption of SO₂ on γ-Al₂O₃ mainly occurred on the sites of hydroxyl groups (Al-OH) and few adsorbed SO₂ was bound with positive charged alumina ions. NO was catalytically oxidized by γ-Al₂O₃ and released as NO₂. Nevertheless, NO competed with As₂O₃(g) to adhere to positive charged alumina ions and strongly suppressed arsenic adsorption over γ-Al₂O₃. Fortunately, in the presence of SO₂, NO was mostly transformed into intermediate (-SO₃NO) at the sites of Al-OH on γ-Al₂O₃. As a result, the adverse effect of NO on the adsorption of As₂O₃(g) was weakened.     

Investigation of structural,physical and optical properties of CeO2–Bi2O3–B2O3 glasses

xCeO₂–30Bi₂O₃–(70−x) B₂O₃ glasses are synthesized by using the melt quench technique. A number of studies such as XRD, density, molar volume, optical band gap, refractive index and FTIR spectroscopy are employed to characterize the glasses. The band gap decreases from 2.15 to 1.61 eV, refractive index increases from 2.67 to 2.93 and density increases from 4.151 to 4.633 g/cm³. The decrease in band gap with CeO₂ doping approaches the semiconductor behavior. FTIR spectroscopy reveals that incorporation of CeO₂ into glass network helps to convert the structural units of [BO₃] into [BO₄] and results in Bi–O bond vibration of [BiO₆].     

The role of copper species on Cu/γ-Al2O3 catalysts for NH3-SCO reaction

UV-vis spectra, XRD, H₂-TPR, TEM and ESR were used to characterize a series of Cu/γ-Al₂O₃ catalysts, which were prepared by incipient wetness impregnation using copper nitrate, copper acetate or copper sulfate as precursors, to study the role of Cu species on Cu/γ-Al₂O₃ catalysts for NH₃-SCO reaction. It was found that the mixture of CuO phase and CuAl₂O₄ phase formed on various Cu/γ-Al₂O₃ catalysts, and the Cu species and dispersion had significant influence on the Cu/γ-Al₂O₃ activity. Highly dispersed CuO phase on the support would be related with its high activity for the NH₃-SCO reaction.

Growth of α-Al2O3:C crystal with highly sensitive optically stimulated luminescence

In this work, an α-Al₂O₃:C crystal was directly grown by the temperature gradient technique (TGT) using Al₂O₃ and graphite powders as the raw materials. The optical, optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) properties and dosimetric characteristics of as-grown crystal were investigated. As-grown α-Al₂O₃:C crystal shows strong absorption band at 205, 230 and 256 nm. Three-dimensional thermoluminescence (TL) emission spectrum of the crystal shows a single emission peak at ∼415 nm. The OSL decay curve can be fitted to two exponentials, the faster component and the slower component. The OSL response of the crystal shows a linear-sublinear-saturation characteristic. As-grown α-Al₂O₃:C crystal shows excellent linearity in the dose range from 5×10⁻⁶ to 50 Gy. For doses higher than the saturation dose (100 Gy), the OSL sensitivity decreases as the dose increases.
