Fluid atomic behavior is an important factor for industrial applications. Computer simulations based on simple models predict Poiseuille flow for these atomic structures with the presence of external force. In this work, we describe the dynamical properties of Ar and O2 flows with precise atomic arrangement via dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation approaches. In these methods, each model is represented by using Large-scale Atomic/Molecular Massively Parallel Simulator package. Simulation results show that maximum rate for velocity of Ar flow in platinum and copper microchannels is 0.100 (unit less)/0.091 Å ps?1 and 0.121 (unit less)/0.105 Å ps?1 by using DPD/MD approach. This atomic parameter changes to 0.111 (unit less)/0.102 Å ps?1 and 0.125 (unit less)/0.108 Å ps?1 for O2 fluid with mentioned approaches. By decreasing the microchannel size, the maximum rate of velocity reaches to 0.101 (unit less)/0.099 Å ps?1 and maximum temperature rate decreases to 485 (unit less)/440 K with DPD/MD approaches. These calculated parameters can be used in industrial application designing for some processes such as heat transfer in structures. It was seen that the developed DPD approach was able to simulate the fluid flow and heat transfer of various types of fluids at micro- and nanoscales with suitable accuracy versus MD.
The application of layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanomaterials as catalysts has attracted great interest due to their unique structural features. It also triggered the need to study their fate and behavior in the aquatic environment. In the present study, Zn-Fe nanolayered double hydroxides (Zn-Fe LDHs) were synthesized using a co-precipitation method and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and nitrogen adsorption-desorption analyses. The toxicity of the home-made Zn-Fe LDHs catalyst was examined by employing a variety of aquatic organisms from different trophic levels, namely the marine photobacterium Vibrio fischeri, the freshwater microalga Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata, the freshwater crustacean Daphnia magna, and the duckweed Spirodela polyrhiza. From the experimental results, it was evident that the acute toxicity of the catalyst depended on the exposure time and type of selected test organism. Zn-Fe LDHs toxicity was also affected by its physical state in suspension, chemical composition, as well as interaction with the bioassay test medium. 相似文献

A novel organic-inorganic hybrid optical sensor (SBA-NCO) was designed and synthesized through immobilization of isocyanatopropyl-triethoxysilane and 1-amino-naphthalene onto the surface of SBA-15 by post-grafting method. The characterization of materials using XRD, TEM, N2 adsorption-desorption, and FT-IR techniques confirmed the successful attachment of organic moieties and preserving original structure of SBA-15 after modification step. Fluorescence experiments demonstrated that SBA-NCO was a highly selective optical sensor for the detection of Fe3+ directly in water over a wide range of metal cations including Na+, Mg2+, Al3+, K+, Ca2+, Cr3+, Mn2+, Fe2+, Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, Cd2+, Hg2+, and Pb2+ in a wide pH values. 相似文献
A density functional theory based on interaction of alkali metal cations (Li+, Na+, K+, Rb+ and Cs+) with cyclic peptides constructed from 3 or 4 alanine molecule (CyAla3 and CyAla4), has been investigated using mixed basis set (C, H, O, Li+, Na+ and K+ using 6-31+G(d), and the heavier cations: Rb+ and Cs+ using LANL2DZ). The minimum energy structures, binding energies, and various thermodynamic parameters of free ligands and their metal cations complexes have been determined with B3LYP and CAM-B3LYP functionals. The order of interaction energies were found to be Li+ > K+ > Na+ > Rb+ > Cs+ and Li+ > Na+ > K+ ? Rb+ > Cs+, calculated at CAM-B3LYP level for the M/CyAla3 and M/CyAla4 complexes, respectively. Their selectivity trend shows that the highest cation selectivity for Li+ over other alkali metal ions has been achieved on the basis of thermodynamic analysis. The main types of driving force host–guest interactions are investigated, the electron-donating O offers lone pair electrons to the contacting LP* of alkali metal cations. 相似文献
Use of citric acid as a chelating agent and fuel, ammonium nitrate as fuel, boric acid as flux material and silica as supports, CaWO4:Ln3+@SiO2 (Ln = Er and Tm) nanoparticles were synthesized via a combustion reaction at 800 °C. Characterization of the samples was performed by X-ray diffractometer (XRD), reflectance UV–Vis spectrophotometer, fluorescence spectrophotometer (PL) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). XRD patterns showed that tetragonal crystalline structure of scheelite and silica supports were formed, and that the formation of a silica support could enhance the luminescence intensity of CaWO4:Ln3+. The reflectance UV–Vis and PL spectra indicated the broad absorption band of WO42? groups about 240 nm, the WO42? wide excitation band with maximum at 240 nm, a broad emission band of WO42? with maximum about 420 nm, and characteristic emissions of Ln3+ ions. According to the TEM analysis, CaWO4:Er3+@SiO2 and CaWO4:Tm3+@SiO2 nanoparticles have almost the same morphology with average particle sizes about 50 nm. 相似文献
