Molecular simulation study of temperature effect on ionic hydration in carbon nanotubes

Molecular dynamics simulations have been performed to investigate the hydration of Li(+), Na(+), K(+), F(-), and Cl(-) inside the carbon nanotubes at temperatures ranging from 298 to 683 K. The structural characteristics of the coordination shells of ions are studied, including the ion-oxygen radial distribution functions, the coordination numbers, and the orientation distributions of the water molecules. Simulation results show that the first coordination shells of the five ions still exist in the nanoscale confinement. Nevertheless, the first coordination shell structures of cations change more significantly than those of anions because of the preferential orientation of the water molecules induced by the carbon nanotube. The first coordination shells of cations are considerably less ordered in the nanotube than in the bulk solution, whereas the change of the first coordination shell structures of the anions is minor. Furthermore, the confinement induces the anomalous behavior of the coordination shells of the ions with temperature. The first coordination shell of K(+) are found to be more ordered as the temperature increases only in the carbon nanotube with the effective diameter of 1.0 nm, implying the enhancement of the ionic hydration with temperature. This is contrary to that in the bulk solution. The coordination shells of the other four ions do not have such behavior in the carbon nanotube with the effective diameter ranging from 0.73 to 1.00 nm. The easier distortion of the coordination shell of K(+) and the match of the shell size and the nanotube size may play roles in this phenomenon. The exchange of water molecules in the first coordination shells of the ions with the solution and the ion diffusion along the axial direction of the nanotube are also investigated. The mobility of the ions and the stability of the coordination shells are greatly affected by the temperature in the nanotube as in the bulk solutions. These results help to understand the biological and chemical processes at the high temperature.     

室温快速合成Ag基金属有机骨架材料用于电催化还原CO2

选择具有强给电子能力的1,2,4-三唑为配体,成功合成了银基金属有机骨架材料(Ag-MOF)并用于电催化还原CO₂反应(CO₂RR)。借助粉末X射线衍射、透射电子显微镜、扫描电子显微镜、计时电流法等表征手段对材料的晶体结构、形貌和电催化CO₂RR性能进行了系统的研究。与商品化的纳米Ag颗粒对比,Ag-MOF展现出更优异的电催化CO₂RR产物选择性、催化活性和稳定性,在-0.9 V (vs RHE)时,CO的法拉第效率高达96.1%。当电压为-1.1 V (vs RHE)时,电流密度可达17 mA·cm^-2,且电极可以稳定运行300 min。这说明通过选择合适的配体结构,可以改变催化位点周围的化学环境,从而高效将CO₂转化为目标产物。     

Linear analysis of degree correlations in complex networks

Many real-world networks such as the protein–protein interaction networks and metabolic networks often display nontrivial correlations between degrees of vertices connected by edges. Here, we analyse the statistical methods used usually to describe the degree correlation in the networks, and analytically give linear relation in the degree correlation. It provides a simple and interesting perspective on the analysis of the degree correlation in networks, which is usefully complementary to the existing methods for degree correlation in networks. Especially, the slope in the linear relation corresponds exactly to the degree correlation coefficient in networks, meaning that it can not only characterize the level of degree correlation in networks, but also reflects the speed that the average nearest neighbours’ degree varies with the vertex degree. Finally, we applied our results to several real-world networks, validating the conclusions of the linear analysis of degree correlation. We hope that the work in this paper can be helpful for further understanding the degree correlation in complex networks.

FTIR study of hydrogen bonding of stearic acid with ethanol, dimethyl sulfoxide,and acetonitrile in supercritical CO_2

FTIR spectroscopy was used to study the hydrogen bonding of stearic acid with ethanol, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO),and acetonitrile in supercritical CO_2 at 318.15 K, and 12.5 and 16.5 MPa. The concentrations of the cosolvents range from 0—0.6 mol·L~(-1). The area percentage of absorption bands for hydrogen-bonded and nonhydrogen-bonded species was obtained from the IR spectra. The acid and the cosolvents can form hydrogen bond even when their concentrations are very low. At fixed solute concentration, the extent of hydrogenbonding increases with cosolvent concentration. At higher ethanol concentrations, it seems that one stearic acid molecule can hydrogen bond with more than one ethanol molecules simultaneously. It is seen that the strength of the hydrogen bond formed by the acid and the cosolvents is in the order: DMSO>ethanol>acetonitrile.
