TiO2担载镍催化剂上硝基苯液相加氢（英文）

The catalytic hydrogenation of nitrobenzene to aniline employing nickel impregnated on rutile,anatase,and high surface area titania supports has been investigated.The nickel is present in elemental state as fcc phase on the catalyst as evidenced by X-ray diffraction results.The Ni crystallite size was found to be greater for Ni/anatase.The temperature-programmed reduction results suggest a greater metal-support interaction for Ni/rutile.The observed order of catalytic activity for the hydrogenation of nitrobenzene is Ni/rutile > Ni/anatase > Ni/TiO2.A conversion of 99% was observed for Ni/rutile at 140 oC and hydrogen pressure of 1.96 MPa.Interestingly,aniline is the only product formed which demonstrates the catalytic hydrogenation of nitrobenzene proceeds with atom economy.Both Ni/rutile and Ni/anatase exhibited a better stability than Ni/TiO2.The hydrogenation proceeds with the preferential adsorption of hydrogen on nickel present in the catalyst surface,possibly assisted by TiOx species.     

Dispersion and Structure Studies of Molybdenum Oxide on Anatase TiO2

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) were used to characterize the structure of the mixture of molybdenum oxide and anatase calcined at 723 K. The resuits indicate that molybdenum oxide can disperse onto the surface of anatase (TiO2) and the dispersion threshold is 11.2 mg in per gram of MoO3 or 4.8 Mo atoms/nm^2 TiO2. When the coment of MoO3 is below the dispersion threshold, MoO3 species is in highly dispersed state interacting strongly with TiO2 support and in discrete tetrahedral coordination. [MoO4], on the surface of TiO2. When the MoO3 loading is above this value, MoO3 exists in both dispersed phase and crystalline phase. MoO3 in dispersed phase is still a discrete [MoO4] tetrahedron; MoO3 in crystal phase is in octahedral coordination.

Controllable synthesis of titania/reduced graphite oxide nanocomposites with various titania phase compositions and their photocatalytic performance

A facile method is presented for preparing TiO2 /reduced graphite oxide(RGO) nanocomposites with phase-controlled TiO2 nanoparticles via redox reaction between the reductive titanium(Ⅲ) precursor and graphite oxide(GO),and a series of TiO2 /RGO composites with various TiO2 phase compositions were obtained.In all the titania/RGO composites,the TiO2 nanoparticles were uniformly distributed on the surface of the RGO.The TiO2 consisted of anatase phase particles in the form of square-plates with edges less than 10 nm and the rutile phase nanorods in diameters less than 10 nm.The performances of the as-prepared TiO2 /RGO composites were investigated on catalytically degrading phenol under visible light irradiation.The TiO2 /RGO composites can effectively degrade phenol under visible light irradiation,and the phase composition of TiO2 in the composites significantly influences the activities of these catalysts.     

Kinetics of hydrate formation using gas bubble suspended in water

An innovative experimental technique, which was devised to study the effects of temperature and pressure on the rate of hydrate formation at the surface of a gas bubble suspended in a stagnant water phase, was adapted in this work. Under such conditions, the hydrate-growth process is free from dynamic mass transfer factors. The rate of hydrate formation of methane and carbon dioxide has been systematically studied. The measured hydrate-growth data were correlated by using the molar Gibbs free energy as driving force. In the course of the experiments, some interesting surface phenomena were observed.     

Structures and stabilities of HPO_2 isomers

The potential energy surface of HPO2 system including eight isomers and twelve transition states is predicated at MP2/6-311++G(d, p) and QCISD(t)/6-311++G(3df,2p)(single-point) levels of theory. On the potential energy surface, cis-HOPO(E1) is found to be thermodynamically and kinetically most stable isomer followed by trans-HOPO(E2) and HPO(O)(C2v, E3) at 10.99 and 48.36 kJ/mol higher, respectively. Based on the potential energy surface, only E1 and E3 are thermodynamically stable isomers, and should be experimentally observable. The products cis-HPOO(E5) and frans-HPOO(E6) in the first-step reaction of HP with O2 can isomerize into isomer E1 that has higher stability. The reaction of OH with PO will directly lead to the formation of isomer E1. The computed results are well consistent with the previous experimental studies.     

The adsorption and activation of formic acid on different anatase TiO_2 surfaces

Formic acid photodegradation is one of the most important reactions in organic pollution control, and helps to improve the hydrogen generation efficiency in titanium dioxide catalyzed water photodecomposition. Based on density functional theory and Reax FF molecular dynamics, the adsorption, diffusion and activation of formic acid on the different anatase TiO_2(101),(001),(010) surfaces are investigated.The result shows that the adsorption of COOH on anatase TiO_2 surface shrinks the energy gap between the dehydrogenation intermediate COOH and HCOO. On the anatase TiO_2(101) surface, the formic acid breaks the O–H bond at the first step with activation energy 0.24 eV, and the consequent break of α-H become much easier with activation energy 0.77 eV. The dissociation of α-H is the determination step of the HCOOH decomposition.     

溶胶-凝胶法制备金属铂高分散的二氧化钛薄膜

Uniform and crack free TiO 2 thin films with highly dispersed platinum were prepared from i PrOH TTIP DEA H 2O system containing H 2PtCl 6·6H 2O as metal source by sol gel method. The microstructure and morphology of the films were characterized by TEM and XRD respectively. It was found that the Pt particles dispersed in the films and had a homogeneous distribution in the shape of sphere with an average size of about 5 nm. This study also showed that the doping with few percent of Pt resulted in the formation of pure rutile phase at a temperature as low as 550 ℃, whereas the same pure phase was formed at the temperature higher than 650 ℃ in TiO 2 or Au/TiO 2 thin films.     

微乳法制备纳米TiO2 /SiO2的结构及光催化研究

Nanosized TiO₂ and TiO₂/SiO₂ particles were prepared by hydrolysis of tetrabutyl titanate (TBOT) and tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) in the TX-100 reverse microemulsion. These particles were characterized by TG-DSC, XRD, FTIR, TEM，N₂ adsorption-desorption. Their photocatalytic activity was tested by degradation of methyl orange. The result shows that TiO₂/SiO₂ nanoparticles are with a monodispersed spherical phase and a uniform size distribution，and TiO₂ particles are dispersed on the surface of SiO₂. The band for Ti-O-Si vibration in FTIR was observed, the Ti-O-Si bond increased the stability of anatase TiO₂, suppressed the phase transformation of titania from anatase to rutile. And due to the addition of SiO₂, the average size of titania decreased from 38 nm in pure TiO₂ to 5 nm in TiO₂/SiO₂. It was found, under UV light irradiation, TiO₂/SiO₂ particles showed higher activity than pure TiO₂, and TiO₂/SiO₂(1/1) particles showed the highest photocatalytic activity on the photocatalytic decomposition of methyl orange, which was influenced by crystal structure, particle size, crystallinity and Surface area Characteristics.     

Diffusion Mode Transition between Gaussian and Non-Gaussian of Nanoparticles in Polymer Solutions

The dynamic density functional theory is applied to study the diffusion of nanoparticles in polymer solutions, in which different diffusion modes have been identified by exploiting the density and free energy evolutions. Under the condition of low polymer concentration, diffusion is controlled by particle free motion with a normal Gaussian type. As the concentration increases, the non- Gaussian behavior can be observed when the particle size is comparable to the correlation length of polymer chain. Particles need to penetrate through a cage and overcome an entropic barrier, where the hopping and the model-coupling diffusion coexist. Further increase of polymer concentration can result in complete restriction of the particle by surrounding polymer segments. In this case, the non-Gaussian process fades away, and particle diffusion is controlled by Rouse dynamics of polymer chains with the generalized Gaussian characteristics.     

Porosity, structural and fractal study of sol-gel TiO2-CeO2 mixed oxides

Sol-gel TiO₂-CeO₂ materials were synthesized at pH=3 employing HNO₃ as hydrolysis agent. Gels were thermally treated at 473, 673, 873, and 1073 K, respectively. Morphologies of the final substrates were studied via N₂ sorption, XRD and TEM. N₂ isotherms indicated a steady porosity in TiO₂-CeO₂ samples treated up to 873 K. Adsorption-desorption isotherms and TEM micrographs were used to perform fractal analyses of annealed samples. A dominant anatase phase was detected by XRD between 473 and 873 K while a rutile phase was evident at 1073 K. The presence of cerium conferred an increased thermal stability to the TiO₂ materials against particle sintering and pore collapse. The structure of cerium-doped anatase lattice was visualized through crystal simulation to investigate the possible substitution of Ti⁴⁺ by Ce⁺⁴ ions. This effect and the progressive segregation of CeO₂ crystals with temperature on the surface of TiO₂ grains lead to substrates of assorted morphologies.

Specific surface areas and mean Au particle of 49 and 74 m²/g and 35 and 25 Å were obtained for impregnated commercial TiO₂ and sol-gel preparations, respectively. XRD patterns shown that in sol-gel derived TiO₂ only anatase phase was identified, while in commercial TiO₂ anatase and rutile phases co-exist. Titania support effect on Au activity for the oxidation of CO has been observed. The light-off during the reaction on Au/TiO₂initiates at 50°C, whereas for commercial impregnated TiO₂ catalyst the light-off initiates at 200°C.     

Effect of annealing temperatures and of high content of the iron ion (Fe<Superscript>3+</Superscript>)-doping on transition anatase–rutile phase of nanocrystalline TiO<Subscript>2</Subscript> thin films prepared by sol–gel spin coating

Titanium dioxide doped with iron (III) was prepared by sol–gel Spin Coating method. The phase structures, morphologies, particle size of the doped TiO₂ have been characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy (AFM) and ultraviolet–visible (UV–Vis) spectrophotometer. The XRD and Raman results show that the 10% Fe³⁺-doped TiO₂ thin films crystallize in anatase phase between 600 and 800 °C, and into the anatase–rutile phase at 1,000 °C, and further into the rutile phase when the content of Fe³⁺ increases (20%). The grain size calculated from XRD patterns shows that the crystallinity of the obtained anatase particles increased from 39.4 to 43.4 nm as the temperature of annealing increase, whereas the size of rutile crystallites increases, with increasing Fe³⁺ concentrations from 36.9 to 38.1 nm. The AFM surface morphology results confirmed that the particle size increases by increasing the annealing temperature and also with an increasing of Fe³⁺ content. The optical band gap (E _g) of the films was determined by the UV–Vis spectrophotometer. We have found that the optical band gap decreased with an increasing of annealing temperatures and also with an increasing of Fe³⁺ content.     

Preparation of nanocrystalline anatase TiO2 using basic sol-gel method

Nanocrystalline titanium dioxide particles with anatase structure and high thermal stability have been synthesized using the basic sol-gel method. The particle size and morphology were refined under hydrothermal conditions in the presence of different concentrations of tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) at 210°C and 230°C. XRD and TEM analysis showed that the TiO₂ particles obtained were homogeneous and monodispersive at low contents of TMAH. All intense peaks, clearly observed in the XRD patterns, were assigned to the anatase phase and no rutile phase was observed. At high contents of TMAH, nanoscale small (10–30 nm) and larger (>100 nm) TiO₂ particles were one-pot synthesized. The nanocrystalline TiO₂ particles synthesized by this method have good thermal stability. With the sintering temperature of up to 650°C, all the XRD peaks maintained good agreement with the anatase reference data.     

Preparation and characterization of SiO2/TiO2 composite microspheres with microporous SiO2 core/mesoporous TiO2 shell

SiO₂/TiO₂ composite microspheres with microporous SiO₂ core/mesoporous TiO₂ shell structures were prepared by hydrolysis of titanium tetrabutylorthotitanate (TTBT) in the presence of microporous silica microspheres using hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC) as a surface esterification agent and porous template, and then dried and calcined at different temperatures. The as-prepared products were characterized with differential thermal analysis and thermogravimetric (DTA/TG), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), nitrogen adsorption. The results showed that composite particles were about 1.8 μm in diameter, and had a spherical morphology and a narrow size distribution. Uniform mesoporous titania coatings on the surfaces of microporous silica microspheres could be obtained by adjusting the HPC concentration to an optimal concentration of about 3.2 mmol L⁻¹. The anatase and rutile phase in the SiO₂/TiO₂ composite microspheres began to form at 700 and 900 °C, respectively. At 700 °C, the specific surface area and pore volume of the SiO₂/TiO₂ composite microspheres were 552 and 0.652 mL g⁻¹, respectively. However, at 900 °C, the specific surface area and pore volume significantly decreased due to the phase transformation from anatase to rutile.     

Thermal evolution of mesoporous titania prepared by CO2 supercritical extraction

Porous anatase is attractive because of its notable photo-electronic properties. Titania wet gel prepared by hydrolysis of Ti-alkoxide was immersed in the flow of supercritical CO₂ at 60°C and the solvent was extracted (aerogel). Mesoporous TiO₂ consisting of anatase nano-particles, about 5 nm in diameter, have been obtained. Thermal evolution of the microstructure of the aerogel was evaluated by TGA-DTA, N₂ adsorption, TEM and XRD, and discussed in comparison with that of the corresponding xerogel. The diffraction peaks of anatase were found for the as-extracted gel while the xerogel dried at 90°C was amorphous. After calcination at 600°C, the average pore size of the aerogel, about 20 nm in diameter, was 4 times larger than that of the xerogel, and the pore volume, about 0.35 cm³ g⁻¹, and the specific surface area, about 60 m² g⁻¹, were 2 times larger than those of the xerogel. XRD peaks of rutile have been found after calcination at 600°C. The particle sizes of anatase and rutile are about 13 and 25 nm in diameter, respectively. The surface morphology of TiO₂ nano-particles has been discussed in terms of their surface fractal dimensions estimated from the N₂ gas adsorption isotherms.     

Phase transformations in nanocrystalline TiO2 milled in different milling atmospheres

The structural evolution of nanocrystalline TiO₂ milled in different milling atmospheres was studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Rietveld refinements of the XRD data showed that high-energy ball milling induced the transformations from anatase to srilankite and rutile at room temperature and ambient pressure. The milling atmospheres with different oxygen partial pressures had an influence on the transformation kinetics of anatase. When the nanocrystalline TiO₂ powders were, respectively, milled in oxygen, air and nitrogen atmospheres, the transformation rates of anatases in turn increased with a decrease in oxygen partial pressure of the milling atmosphere, due to the reducing concentration of oxygen vacancies in the milled TiO₂ lattice.     

Morphological and phase evolution of TiO2 nanocrystals prepared from peroxotitanate complex aqueous solution: Influence of acetic acid

Nanosized anatase and rutile TiO₂ having different shape, phase and size have been prepared from aqueous solutions of peroxo titanium complex starting from titanium(IV) isopropoxide (TTIP), acetic acid and hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) in water/isopropanol media by a facile sol-gel process. The TiO₂ nanocrystals are characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, FT-IR spectroscopy, TEM, high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and selected area electron diffraction (SAED) techniques. The influence of pH and the sequence of addition of reaction contents on the phase and morphology of TiO₂ are studied. The reasons for the observation of only anatase and/or mixture of anatase and rutile are given.     

High temperature stability and photocatalytic activity of nanocrystalline anatase powders with Zr and Si co-dopants

TiO₂ nanopowders doped by Si and Zr were prepared by sol–gel method. The effects of Si and Zr doping on the structural, optical, and photo-catalytic properties of titania nanopowders have been studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and UV–Vis absorption spectroscopy. XRD results suggest that adding impurities has a significant effect on anatase phase stability, crystallinity, and particle size of TiO₂. Titania rutile phase formation in ternary system (Ti–Si–Zr) was inhibited by Zr⁴⁺ and Si⁴⁺ co-doped TiO₂ in high temperatures (500–900 °C) and 36 mol% anatase composition is retained even after calcination at 1,000 °C. The photocatalyst activity was evaluated by photocatalytic degradation kinetics of aqueous methylen orange under visible radiation. The results show that the photocatalytic activity of the 20 %Si and 15 %Zr co-doped TiO₂ nanopowders have a larger degradation efficiency than pure TiO₂ under visible light.
