Role of Ceria in the Design of Composite Materials for Elemental Mercury Removal

The necessity to drastically act against mercury pollution has been emphatically addressed by the United Nations. Coal‐fired power plants contribute a great deal to the anthropogenic emissions; therefore, numerous sorbents/catalysts have been developed to remove elemental mercury (Hg⁰) from flue gases. Among them, ceria (CeO₂) has attracted significant interest, due to its reversible Ce³⁺/Ce⁴⁺ redox pair, surface‐bound defects and acid‐base properties. The removal efficiency of Hg⁰ vapor depends among others, on the flue gas composition and temperature. CeO₂ can be incorporated into known materials in such a way that the abatement process can be effective at different operating conditions. Hence, the scope of this account is to discuss the role of CeO₂ as a promoter, active phase and support in the design of composite Hg⁰ sorbents/catalysts. The elucidation of each of these roles would allow the integration of CeO₂ advantageous characteristics to such degree, that tailor‐made environmental solution to complex issues can be provided within a broader application scope. Besides, it would offer invaluable input to theoretical calculations that could enable the materials screening and engineering at a low cost and with high accuracy.     

A novel Ag/Ag3PO4-IRMOF-1 nanocomposite for antibacterial application in the dark and under visible light irradiation

MOF-5 that sometimes called IRMOF-1 has been intensively studied in recent years to develop efficient photocatalyst to degrade refractory organics and inactivate bacteria for wastewater treatment. In the present work, Ag/Ag₃PO₄ nanoparticles incorporated in IRMOF-1 was successfully prepared via hydrothermal approach. The antibacterial activity of synthesized materials (IRMOF-1, Ag/Ag₃PO₄ nanoparticles and Ag/Ag₃PO₄-IRMOF-1 nanocomposite was compared against two types of bacteria (Escherichia coli (E. coil) as Gram negative and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) as Gram-positive bacteria). The deactivation of the bacteria by the prepared material was measured in the dark and under visible light irradiation. The antibacterial activity of synthesized samples was investigated by determining the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC), minimal bactericidal concentration (MBC), growth inhibition assay and inhibition zone. The Ag/Ag₃PO₄-IRMOF-1 nanocomposite exhibited stronger antibacterial activities than the Ag/Ag₃PO₄ nanoparticles and IRMOF-1 at all tested bacteria types. Based on inhibition zone, without any light irradiation, Ag/Ag₃PO₄-IRMOF-1 nanocomposite showed activity toward E. coil, but in presence of light nanocomposite depicted activity toward S. aureus. The results demonstrated that antibacterial activity of all synthesized samples in the dark and light against S. aureus bacteria was more than E. coil bacteria. The antibacterial activity mechanism was due to sustained-release of silver ions in the dark and reactive oxygen species (ROS) under visible light. The bioactivity of IRMOF-1 was related to the degradation of the its structure and the release of Zn²⁺ ions into the culture medium that bind to the cell wall and deactivation bacteria.     

Random Occupation of Multimetal Sites in Transition Metal-Organic Frameworks for Boosting the Oxygen Evolution Reaction

Developing robust oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts with excellent performance is essential for the conversion of renewable electricity to clean fuel. Herein, we present a facile concept for the synthesis of efficient high-entropy metal-organic frameworks (HEMOFs) as electrocatalysts in a one-step solvothermal synthesis. This strategy allows control of the microstructure and corresponding lattice distortion by tuning the metal ion composition. As a result, the OER activity was improved by optimizing the coordination environment of the metal catalytic center. The optimized Co-rich HEMOFs exhibited a low overpotential of 310 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm⁻², better than a RuO₂ catalyst tested under the same conditions. The finding of lattice distortion of the HEMOFs provides a new strategy for developing high-performance electrocatalysts for energy conversion.     

Colorimetric technique for the detection of carbofuran and its application in various environmental samples

A large variety of pesticides have been used in the agriculture area to raise the quality, extend and yield storage life of crops. The nonstop uses of these pesticides have resulted in pollution of the environment and also caused risk to human health. For the rapid detection of selective CBFpesticide, we developed a simple and sensitive colorimetric detection method based on azo-coupling reaction. After a simple pre-treatment of carbofuran (2, 2-dimethyl-2, 3-dihydro-7-benzofuranyl N-methyl carbamate) (CBF) (1000 ​μg ​mL⁻¹) with a diazotized solution, the resulting is rapidly undergoing azo-coupling reaction with p-aminoantipyrine (1% alcoholic) with a dramatic color change only in few minutes. Finally, we successfully applied the concentrations of CBF pesticide on vegetable, fruit, soil, and water samples in the presence of natural interferences using UV–Vis spectrophotometer and FTIR with limits of detection at 0.004μgmL⁻¹. CBF had recoveries in the range of 93–98%, with relative standard deviation values less than 2% and good linearity was achieved with r ​≥ ​0.98. The inhibition rate was linear with CBF concentration in the range of 1μgmL⁻¹ to 10μgmL⁻¹. The proposed method applies to analyze CBF pesticide in real samples. FTIR technique was used to consider and gain structural information about the existing intermolecular interactions for vegetable samples.

Study on liquid oxygen compatibility of bromine‐containing epoxy resins for the application in liquid oxygen tank

The liquid oxygen compatible epoxy resin was obtained by the polycondensation between tetrabromobisphenol A and neat epoxy resins. The results of liquid oxygen impact test indicated that the synthetic epoxy resins were compatible with liquid oxygen. The relationship between impact reaction sensitivity (IRS) and flame retardancy were studied by liquid oxygen impact test and limiting oxygen index test. The results showed that the flame‐retardant modification of epoxy resin was valuable to reduce the IRS. The thermal gravimetric analysis results indicated that the Br · radical was quickly released in relatively low temperature (approximately 370°C) for compatible epoxy resin. The Br · radical was a key factor to promote the epoxy resin compatible with the liquid oxygen. The X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy was used to survey the distribution of functional groups on the surface of samples before and after impact. The results showed that the oxidation reaction and carbonization process may occur on the surface of samples after impact. The liquid oxygen compatibility mechanism is proposed in this paper. The bromine‐containing epoxy resin has the potential to be the material used in liquid oxygen tank. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Simple strategy for the optimization of solid-phase extraction procedures through the use of solid-liquid distribution coefficients application to the determination of aliphatic lactones in wine

A practical strategy for the optimization of solid-phase extraction (SPE) systems is presented. Critical SPE volumes (sample loaded, rinsing and elution solvent) are calculated from solid–liquid extraction coefficients and from basic bed parameters determined in simple experiments, using the Lövkist Jonsson model and other expressions derived from the general theory of chromatography. The agreement between calculated and measured volumes is satisfactory, which makes it possible to consider different sorbents and rinsing and elution solvents in the SPE optimization with a relatively low experimental effort. The strategy has been successfully applied to the optimization of a SPE method directed to the selective extraction of aliphatic lactones from wine. Six different reversed-phase sorbents were studied and the one showing maximum extraction selectivity was selected. Wine (50 ml) is extracted in a 200 mg cartridge filled with Bond Elut-ENV resins. Interferences are removed with 20 ml of methanol–water (40:60) with 1% NaHCO₃. Elution is carried out with 1.8 ml of dichloromethane. The extract is concentrated to 0.15 ml and analyzed by GC–ion trap MS. Eight odor-active aliphatic γ and δ lactones (with 8–12 C atoms) from wine are recovered (R>75%) in an extract free from wine major volatiles. Detection limits are in the 40–300 ng/l range, well below the odor detection threshold of these compounds. Linearity (r²>0.996) and precision (average R.S.D. 3.5%) are satisfactory in all cases. The levels in wine of some of these lactones (γ-octa, undeca and dodecalactones) are reported by first time and results demonstrate that can be present at concentrations above or close to their corresponding odor thresholds.     

Theoretical study of the mechanism for C-H bond activation in spin-forbidden reaction between Ti<Superscript>+</Superscript> and C<Subscript>2</Subscript>H<Subscript>4</Subscript>

The mechanism of the spin-forbidden reaction Ti⁺(⁴F, 3d²4s¹) + C₂H₄→TiC₂H₂ ⁺ (²A₂) + H₂ on both doublet and quartet potential energy surfaces has been investigated at the B3LYP level of theory. Crossing points between the potential energy surfaces and the possible spin inversion process are discussed by means of spin-orbit coupling (SOC) calculations. The strength of the SOC between the low-lying quartet state and the doublet state is 59.3 cm⁻¹ in the intermediate complex IM1-⁴B₂. Thus, the changes of its spin multiplicity may occur from the quartet to the doublet surface to form IM1-²A₁, leading to a sig-nificant decrease in the barrier height on the quartet PES. After the insertion intermediate IM2, two distinct reaction paths on the doublet PES have been found, i.e., a stepwise path and a concerted path. The latter is found to be the lowest energy path on the doublet PES to exothermic TiC₂H₂ ⁺(²A₂) + H₂ products, with the active barrier of 4.52 kcal/mol. In other words, this reaction proceeds in the following way: Ti⁺+C₂H₄→⁴IC→IM1-⁴B₂→^4,2ISC→IM1-²A₁→[²TS_ins]→IM2→[²TS_MCTS]→IM5→TiC₂H₂ ⁺(²A₂)+H₂.
