Multilayer films of cationic surfactants incorporating polyoxometalate on electrodes

A new kind of multilayer of didodecyldimethylammonium bromide (DDAB) and 1:12 phosphomolybdic anions (PMo₁₂) was achieved on the surface of a wax-impregnated graphite (WIG) electrode by ion exchange and electrostatic interaction. The characterization and electrochemical behavior of the multilayer films of DDAB/PMo₁₂ is described in detail. The chemically modified electrode was shown to exhibit an excellent electrocatalytic activity toward the reduction of BrO₃ ^– anion in 0.5 M H₂SO₄ and possesses several attractive features, such as simple preparation, fast response, good stability, etc. Electronic Publication     

Cu-ZSM-5分子筛上[Cu-O-Cu]2+物种的原位红外光谱研究

通过原位监测Ｃｕ－ＺＳＭ－５分子筛的振动动红外光谱随温度及不同处理条件的变化情况,观察到［Ｃｕ－Ｏ－Ｃｕ］＾２＋物种的形成过程,即两个Ｃｕ（ＯＨ）＾＋在脱水过程中经二聚形成［Ｃｕ－Ｏ－Ｃｕ］＾２＋,低交换度样品开始产生［Ｃｕ－Ｏ－Ｃｕ］＾２＋物种所需脱水温度较高,通过观察不同处理条件对［Ｃｕ－Ｏ－Ｃｕ］＾２＋的影响,说明Ｃｕ＾２＋是通过脱出［Ｃｕ－Ｏ－Ｃｕ］＾２＋中的超各氧而被还原为Ｃｕ＾＋,较高     

Separation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons by micellar electrokinetic chromatography with aqueous short-chain alcohol solvent

Micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography (MEKC) with aqueous organic solvent has been developed to separate polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Methanol, ethanol or propanol as an organic modifier was added to sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) micellar solution in order to increase the solubility of very hydrophobic solutes in mobile phase. Both methanol and ethanol can be used as co-solvents for the separation of PAHs. Use of ethanol resulted in a shorter analysis time than use of methanol. The separations of some PAHs were unsatisfactory using propanol although the analysis time was much shorter than with ethanol. The influence of ethanol content, SDS concentration and temperature on the separations was studied. Benzene and nine polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons were successfully separated using 50 mM SDS-20 mM phosphate-5 mM borate, containing 40% (v/v) ethanol at 35 degrees C. The relative standard deviation (R.S.D.) of t(R) ranged from 0.5 to 1.5% for six repeat injections.
