A lead(II) sensor based on a glassy carbon electrode modified with Fe3O4 nanospheres and carbon nanotubes

We have developed a highly sensitive and selective sensor for lead(II) ions. A glassy carbon electrode was modified with Fe₃O₄ nanospheres and multi-walled carbon nanotubes, and this material was characterized by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The electrode displays good electrochemical activity toward Pb(II) and gives anodic and cathodic peaks with potentials at ?496 mV and ?638 mV (vs. Ag/AgCl) in pH?6.0 solution. The sensor exhibits a sensitive and fairly selective response to Pb(II) ion, with a linear range between 20 pM and 1.6 nM, and a detection limit as low as 6.0 pM (at a signal-to noise ratio of 3). The sensor was successfully applied to monitor Pb(II) in spiked water samples.

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of Two Succinato‐Bridged Macrocyclic Nickel(II) Complexes

Two dinuclear succinato‐bridged nickel(II) complexes [Ni(RR‐L)]₂(μ‐SA)(ClO₄)₂ ( 1 ) and [Ni(SS‐L)]₂(μ‐SA)(ClO₄)₂ ( 2 ) (L = 5, 5, 7, 12, 12, 14‐hexamethyl‐1, 4, 8, 11‐tetraazacyclotetradecane, SA = succinic acid) were synthesized and characterized by EA, Circular dichroism (CD), as well as IR and UV/Vis spectroscopy. Single crystal X‐ray diffraction analyses revealed that the Ni^II atoms display a distorted octahedral coordination arrangement, and the succinato ligand bridges two central Ni^II atoms in a bis bidentate fashion to form dimers in 1 and 2 . The monomers of {[Ni(RR‐L)]₂(μ‐SA)}²⁺ and {[Ni(SS‐L)]₂(μ‐SA)}²⁺ are connected by O–H ··· O and N–H ··· O hydrogen bonds into a 1D right‐handed and left‐handed helical chain along the b axis, respectively. The homochiral natures of 1 and 2 are confirmed by the results of CD spectroscopy.     

Investigation on ion movement in the fringe-field switching mode depending on resistivity of alignment layer and dielectric anisotropic sign of liquid crystal

Adsorption and desorption of ions at interface between liquid crystal and alignment layer in liquid crystal displays play a crucial role in residual direct current voltage associated with image sticking. In this article, the dependency of such adsorption and desorption of ions on resistivity of alignment layer and sign of liquid crystal dielectric anisotropy in the fringe-field liquid crystal cell has been investigated. Our studies show that the time constant of ions during adsorption and desorption depends upon resistivity and dielectric constant of liquid crystal and alignment layer, and most strongly influenced by the resistivity of alignment layer such that the one with lower resistivity in two orders shows much faster adsorption and desorption at the interface than that of the one with higher resistivity.     

Synthesis, crystal structures, and magnetic properties of tetranuclear nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes with tridentate Schiff bases

Two cubane-type tetranuclear nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes, [Ni₄(L¹)₄(CH₃OH)₄] (1) and [Cu₄(L²)₄]·H₂O (2), where L¹ and L² are the dianionic forms of the tridentate Schiff bases 4-nitro-2-[(2-hydroxyethylimino)methyl]phenol (H₂L¹) and 5-methoxy-2-[(2-hydroxyethylimino)methyl]phenol (H₂L²), respectively, have been synthesized and characterized by physicochemical methods and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The magnetic properties of the complexes show the presence of ferromagnetic interactions for complex 1 and antiferromagnetic interactions for complex 2, mediated by hydroxyl bridges.     

稀土元素在含残余砷、锡09Cr2AlMoRE钢中的作用

对加稀土前后09Cr2AlMoRE钢取样分析化学成分,制备金相样用SEM-EDS研究了钢中析出物特征,制备透射电镜(TEM)试样通过TEM研究元素的晶界偏聚,并用热力学计算了稀土Ce,La,S和残余元素As反应固定残余元素As的可能性。研究结果表明:在低氧、硫的条件下,稀土镧可以和09Cr2AlMoRE钢中较低含量的砷(130×10-6)作用生成镧砷金属间化合物;铈、镧主要是通过形成稀土砷硫夹杂物固定钢中残余元素砷。另外,在本实验条件下稀土元素(64×10-6)只有很微量的偏聚在晶界,残余元素As不在晶界偏聚。     

过渡金属氧化物对阻燃剂聚磷酸铵热分解的影响机制

过渡金属氧化物(MO)可以显著影响聚磷酸铵(APP)的热分解过程,进而改善APP复配膨胀阻燃聚合物材料的阻燃效率。将ZnO、Fe2O3、TiO2掺入到APP中,采用热失重分析(TGA)、X射线光电子能谱(XPS)和X射线衍射分析(XRD),考察了3种MO对APP热分解行为的影响,分析了相互作用过程中金属原子和磷原子化学结合状态的变化以及高温热分解产物的物相结构。TGA和XPS图谱分析结果表明,MO可降低APP的起始热分解温度,并催化APP释放NH3和H2O,而在热分解后期由于金属磷酸盐的形成可显著增加APP的高温残留量。3种MO催化APP热分解脱NH3和H2O的活性由大到小的顺序是:ZnO>Fe2O3>TiO2,而对APP凝聚相热分解P-O产物的交联能力从大到小的顺序为:Fe2O3>ZnO>TiO2。XRD结果显示,ZnO在高温下与APP反应生成了Zn(PO3)2晶体,而Fe2O3和TiO2与APP反应分别生成了Fe4(P2O7)3和TiP2O7晶体。

Hausdorff operators on the Heisenberg group

This paper is devoted to the high-dimensional and multilinear Hausdorff operators on the Heisenberg group H n. The sharp bounds for the strong type(p, p)(1 ≤ p ≤∞) estimates of n-dimensional Hausdorff operators on H n are obtained. The sharp bounds for strong(p, p) estimates are further extended to multilinear cases. As an application, we derive the sharp constant for the multilinear Hardy operator on H n. The weak type(p, p)(1 ≤ p ≤∞) estimates are also obtained.
