Adsorption of bulky molecules of nonylphenol ethoxylate on ordered mesoporous carbons

Ordered mesoporous carbons (OMCs) with varying pore sizes were prepared using ordered mesoporous silica SBA-15 as hard templates. The OMCs possess abundant mesopores with narrow pore size distribution, on which the adsorption behavior of bulky molecules of nonylphenol ethoxylate (NPE) were investigated. The isotherms of NPE on OMCs can be fitted by Langmuir adsorption model, evidenced by the adsorption data. The surface area of the pores larger than 1.5 nm is a crucial factor to the adsorption capacity of NPE, whereas the most probable pore diameter of OMCs is crucial to the adsorption rate of NPE. The adsorption temperature has more significant effects on adsorption rate than the adsorption capacity. Theoretical studies show that the adsorption kinetics of NPE on OMCs can be depicted with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. In addition, thermodynamic parameters of adsorption were evaluated based on the equilibrium constants related to the equilibrium of adsorption at different temperatures.     

Study on the electroreduction process of oxygen to superoxide ion by using acetylene black powder microelectrode

In this paper, the powder microelectrode technique was employed in studying the voltametric response of the O₂/₂⁻ couple, which demonstrated a nearly reversible redox process at an acetylene black powder microelectrode in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF). A well-developed steady state current plateau for the electrochemical reduction of oxygen was obtained in this system. The electron transfer number (n) and heterogeneous electron transfer rate constant k _s were measured by steady-state voltametric response, and the results were 1.08, 3.4 × 10⁻³ cm s⁻¹, respectively. Additionally, the scavenging activity of O₂⁻ with biological antioxidant (ascorbic acid) was evaluated by cyclic voltammetry; IC₅₀ came to 5 × 10⁻⁴ mol/l.

Hydrothermal Synthesis, Crystal Structure and Thermal Stability of [Ni(phen)3]·(C8H12O4)·(H2O)14

One novel complex [Ni(phen)3]·(C8H12O4)·(H2O)14 with hexane dicarboxylic acid and 1,10-phenanthroline has been hydrothermally synthesized and characterized. Crystal data: monoclinic, space group C2/c, a = 2.3475(5), b = 1.2208(2), c = 1.9499(4) nm, β = 114.682(3)o, V = 5.0778(16) nm3, Dc = 1.339 g/cm3, Z = 4, μ(MoKα) = 0.458 mm-1, F(000) = 2168, GOOF = 1.014, R = 0.0401 and wR = 0.0961. The nickel(Ⅱ) center in the title complex is coordinated with six nitrogen atoms of three 1,10-phenanthroline molecules, giving a distorted octahedral coordination geometry. However, the nickel(Ⅱ) ion does not coordinate to the hexane dicarboxylic acid. The complex molecules form a 3D structure through hydrogen bonds. TG analysis shows that the title complex is stable below 240.0 ℃.     

La2O3对沼气重整制氢催化剂Ni/γ-Al2O3的影响

用浸渍法制备了不同La2O3含量的Ni/La2O3/γ-Al2O3催化剂,用CH4/CO2体积比为1的混合气体模拟沼气,考察了La2O3对沼气重整制氢催化剂Ni/γ-Al2O3的结构及催化性能的影响.运用XRD、H2-TPR、BET及TEM等手段对催化剂进行了表征.结果表明,La2O3对催化剂Ni/γ-Al2O3的影响主要取决于其含量.载体中La2O3的添加增强了Ni与Al2O3之间的相互作用.添加适量的La2O3能使催化剂具有更好的可还原性,并能增加金属Ni的分散性,抑制反应过程中Ni的烧结,提高载体对CO2的吸附能力,从而改善了催化剂的抗积炭性,使催化剂具有较好的活性及稳定性.反之,过量La2O3的掺杂会使催化剂的抗积炭性及活性下降.当La2O3含量为6%(ω)时,催化剂中Ni晶粒具有较好的分散性、还原性及抗积炭性,从而使催化剂具有更好的活性及稳定性.

环双(对-蒽基-对草快)的分子识别与谱学性质

环双(对-蒽基-对草快)是一种新型的缺电子大环仿生主体, 分子识别是其最重要的应用之一. 考察主体对一系列客体分子如水、氨、醇及杂环等的识别能力, 用密度泛函理论(DFT)中的B3LYP/3-21G基组对主客体复合物的结构进行优化. 在B3LYP/6-31G(d)水平上进行单点能计算, 校正后得到复合物的结合能. 用B3LYP/3-21G方法计算13C和3He化学位移. 结果表明, 主体对客体分子的识别主要靠客体上的杂原子与主体上的氢原子之间的氢键进行. 复合物的稳定化能受氢键的数目和距离影响. 氢键的形成导致部分复合物LUMO与HOMO能隙增大, 同时导致与氢键相连的C—H键上C原子的化学位移向低场移动. 复合物的芳香性与其结合能的大小及结合方式有关. 主体的芳香性因其与客体之间的弱相互作用而提高, 但太强的相互作用及客体在主体空腔内都将影响主体的环电流, 从而削弱其芳香性.

Transient saturation absorption spectroscopy excited near the band gap at high excitation carrier density in GaAs

Transient saturation absorption spectroscopy in GaAs thin films was investigated using femtosecond pump and supercontinuum probe technique at excitation densities higher than 1×10^{19}cm^{-3}. The Coulomb enhancement factor of the electron－hole plasma results in a spectrum hole at the pump wavelength. Two distinct transmission peaks at two sides of the pump wavelength are observed, arising from the bleaching of transitions from the heavy- and light-hole bands to the conduction band. The dynamic process of the transient saturation absorption is fitted using a bi-exponential function. The fast decay process is dominated by the carrier-phonon scattering and the slow process may be attributed to the electron－hole recombination.
