The activation of Au–Ag plasmonic bimetallic nanocatalyst can make the nanocatalyst exhibit superior visible-light (VL) photocatalytic activity. An efficient activation of Au–Ag nanocatalyst by cold plasma requires the restructuring of Au and Ag species over catalyst surface to form Au–Ag alloy nanoparticles while suppressing agglomeration of the nanoparticles. We here report that the loading sequence of Au and Ag components on titanium dioxide (TiO2) support during catalyst preparation and discharge atmosphere play important roles in the plasma activation. Preparation of AuAg/TiO2 nanocatalyst by depositing Ag and Au in sequence could avoid the undesired loss of Ag component, and ensure an effective restructuring of Au and Ag species in O2 plasma activation. Compared with the reductive (H2) and inert (Ar and N2) plasmas, discharge in oxidative O2 establishes Coulomb field with the negatively charged species over catalyst surface and enable the restructuring and intimate interaction of Au and Ag species. The catalyst characterization and density functional theory calculations suggest that O2 plasma endows AuAg/TiO2 nanocatalyst with large numbers of Au–Ag alloy nanoparticles, small size of plasmonic nanoparticles, high density of coordinatively unsaturated sites, and high content of surface oxygen species in the activation, which facilitates the adsorption and activation of O2, and thus CO oxidation reaction under VL irradiation.

MWCNTs-Co(II) and Pd(II) were prepared through grafting silylated-salicylaldimine Pd(II) and Co(II) on multiwalled carbon nanotubes(MWCNTs) for ethylene oligomerization. The structures of the two MWCNTs-supported catalysts were characterized by means of scanning electron microscopy(SEM), X-ray diffraction(XRD), Fourier transform infrared(FTIR) spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analyses(TGA) and nitrogen adsorption and desorption. And the influence of the supported pattern on the catalytic properties for ethylene oligomerization was investigated. The results revealed that the silylated-salicylaldimine complexes were grafted on the inner and outer surfaces of the carbon nanotubes and the pore size and BET surface area of MWCNTs decreased. Compared with the homogeneous catalysts, the two MWCNTs-supported catalysts had higher selectivity for hexene and 1-hexene in the presence of diethylaluminum chloride(DEAC) with a small molecule size due to confinement effect. MWCNTs-Pd exhi-bited higher activity and higher selectivity for C8+ olefin compared to MWCNTs-Co due to electronic factors. The catalytic activities of MWCNTs-Pd and MWCNTs-Co decreased from 24.18×105g·(mol Pd·h)–1 and 20.57×105g·(mol Co·h)–1 to 19.79×105g·(mol Pd·h)–1 and 13.14×105g·(mol Co·h)–1 after the third recycle reaction, respectively. 相似文献
In this study, a green protocol for supporting CuO nanoparticles over chitosan-modified amino-magnetic nanoparticles is described. The physicochemical and morphological properties of the desired nanocomposite assessed by various techniques like ICP, FT-IR, FE-SEM, EDX, TEM, XRD and VSM. In the oncological part of the recent study, the Cu(NO3)2, Fe3O4, and Fe3O4-NH2@CS/CuO nanocomposite cell viability was very low against human gastric cancer cell lines i.e. MKN45, AGS, and KATO III and human colorectal carcinoma cell lines i.e. HT-29, HCT 116, HCT-8 [HRT-18], and Ramos.2G6.4C10. The IC50 of Fe3O4-NH2@CS/CuO nanocomposite against MKN45, AGS, KATO III, HT-29, HCT 116, HCT-8 [HRT-18], and Ramos.2G6.4C10 cell lines were 517, 525, 544, 282, 214, 420, and 477 µg/mL, respectively. Thereby, the best anti-gastro-duodenal cancers findings of our Fe3O4-NH2@CS/CuO nanocomposite was seen in the HCT 116 cell line case. 相似文献
In this study, flexible silk fibroin protein and biocompatible barium hexaferrite (BaM) nanoparticles were combined and electrospun into nanofibers, and their physical properties could be tuned through the mixing ratios and a water annealing process. Structural analysis indicates that the protein structure of the materials is fully controllable by the annealing process. The mechanical properties of the electrospun composites can be significantly improved by annealing, while the magnetic properties of barium hexaferrite are maintained in the composite. Notably, in the absence of a magnetic field, cell growth increased slightly with increasing BaM content. Application of an external magnetic field during in vitro cell biocompatibility study of the materials demonstrated significantly larger cell growth. We propose a mechanism to explain the effects of water annealing and magnetic field on cell growth. This study indicates that these composite electrospun fibers may be widely used in the biomedical field for controllable cell response through applying different external magnetic fields. 相似文献
