CaPtAs: A new noncentrosymmetric superconductor

We report the discovery of a new noncentrosymmetric superconductor CaPtAs.It crystallizes in a tetragonal structure(space group I41md,No.109),featuring three dimensional honeycomb networks of Pt-As and a much elongated c-axis(a=b=4.18?,and c=43.70?).The superconductivity of CaPtAs with Tc=1.47 K was characterized by means of electrical resistivity,specific heat,and ac magnetic susceptibility.The electronic specific heat Ce(T)/T shows evidence for a deviation from the behavior of a conventional BCS superconductor,and can be reasonably fitted by a p-wave model.The upper critical fieldμ0Hc2 of CaPtAs exhibits a moderate anisotropy,with an in-plane value of around 204 mT and an out-of-plane value of 148 mT.Density functional theory calculations indicate that the Pt-5 d and As-4 p orbitals mainly contribute to the density of states near the Fermi level,showing that the Pt-As honeycomb networks may significantly influence the superconducting properties.     

The High Energy X-ray telescope (HE) onboard the Insight-HXMT astronomy satellite

The Insight-Hard X-ray Modulation Telescope(Insight-HXMT) is a broadband X-ray and γ-ray(1-3000 ke V) astronomy satellite. One of its three main telescopes is the High Energy X-ray telescope(HE). The main detector plane of HE comprises 18 Na I(Tl)/Cs I(Na) phoswich detectors, where Na I(Tl) is used as the primary detector to measure ~ 20-250 ke V photons incident from the field of view(FOV) defined by collimators, and Cs I(Na) is used as the active shielding detector to Na I(Tl) by pulse shape discrimination. Additionally, Cs I(Na) is used as an omnidirectional γ-ray monitor. The HE collimators have a diverse FOV,i.e. 1.1°×5.7°(15 units), 5.7°×5.7°(2 units), and blocked(1 unit). Therefore, the combined FOV of HE is approximately5.7°×5.7°. Each HE detector has a diameter of 190 mm resulting in a total geometrical area of approximately 5100 cm2, and the energy resolution is ~15% at 60 ke V. For each recorded X-ray event by HE, the timing accuracy is less than 10 μs and the deadtime is less than 10 μs. HE is used for observing spectra and temporal variability of X-ray sources in the 20-250 ke V band either by pointing observations for known sources or scanning observations to unveil new sources. Additionally, HE is used for monitoring the γ-ray burst in 0.2-3 Me V band. This paper not only presents the design and performance of HE instruments but also reports results of the on-ground calibration experiments.     

巡游电子系化合物La0.8Ce0.2(Fe1-xCox)11.4Si1.6的磁热效应

对制备的化合物La0.8Ce0.2(Fe1-xCox)11.4Si1.6(x=0.02,0.04,0.06)的相组成、巡游电子变磁转变(IEMT)特性和磁热效应(MCE)进行了研究。粉末X射线衍射结果表明,经1373 K真空退火处理7 d后,化合物La0.8Ce0.2(Fe1-xCox)11.4Si1.6(x=0.02,0.04,0.06)均为单相立方NaZn13型晶体结构。随着Co含量由x=0.02增加到x=0.06,样品的居里温度TC由207 K上升到277 K。在0~1.5 T磁场变化下,x=0.02,0.04,0.06时样品的最大磁熵变|ΔSM(T)|分别为40.17,12.60和7.65 J.kg-1.K-1,可见该化合物有巨大的磁熵变,而且随Co含量的增加最大磁熵变迅速减小。该化合物的巨大磁熵变来源于TC处的一级相变,以及在TC以上由磁场诱导IEMT,但由于Co原子对Fe原子的替代能够抑制变磁转变的发生,因此该系化合物最大磁熵变随Co含量的增加迅速减小。     

V－Ag－Ni系氧化物的表面氧性质与甲苯选择性氧化的催化性能

制备了一系列Ｖ、Ａｇ、Ｎｉ原子比不同的三元氧化物，应用ＴＰＤ－ＭＳ技术研究了样品表面氧的性质，并测定了甲苯选择性氧化生成苯甲醛的催化活性．实验结果表明，样品表面存在有多种吸附的氧物种．在脱附温度＜９００℃：当Ｎｉ含量对Ａｇ（或Ｖ）的原子比为０．２５或０．５０时，仅在低温处出现有表面的Ｏ－和Ｏ２－两种氧物种的脱附峰；当Ｎｉ含量对Ａｇ（或Ｖ）的原子比增高到＞０．７５时，除有表面的Ｏ－和Ｏ２－两种氧物种的脱氧峰外，还有由于样品中的物相转变所生成的有晶格氧（Ｏ２－）参与脱附的脱氧峰．随着Ｖ－Ａｇ中Ｎｉ含量的改变，脱氧峰的脱附活化能Ｅｄ值也发生变化，３＃样品（Ｖ：Ａｇ：Ｎｉ＝１：１：０．７５）的Ｅｄ值最低，生成苯甲醛的选择性也最高．因此，样品的Ｅｄ值与生成苯甲醛的选择性之间存在着顺变关系．     

ZnO添加量对Pd/Zr0.5Al0.5O1.75催化剂净化稀燃天然气汽车尾气性能的影响

以掺杂不同含量ZnO的Zr_0.5Al_0.5O_1.75为载体,制备了系列1.5%Pd催化剂.在模拟稀燃天然气汽车尾气条件下,测试了催化剂的活性和抗水性,并用N₂吸附-脱附、X射线衍射、H₂程序升温还原和X射线光电子能谱等手段对催化剂进行了系统表征.研究结果表明,ZnO的添加及添加量对催化剂的活性和抗H₂O性有明显影响,其中以ZnO添加量为15%时制备的复合氧化物为载体的催化剂活性最佳.当模拟尾气中不含H₂O时,该催化剂对甲烷的起燃温度（T₅₀）和完全转化温度（T₉₀）分别为278和314℃;在含H₂O时,该催化剂的T₅₀和T₉₀分别为342和371℃.     

无粘结剂ZSM-11催化剂上异丁烯直接胺化生成叔丁胺

叔丁胺是一种重要的化工原料和中间体,广泛应用于制备橡胶促进剂、医药、农药和着色剂等下游产品.异丁烯在分子筛催化剂上直接胺化生产叔丁胺是一个经济环保过程,其中ZSM-5和BEA分子筛的催化性能优于其它系列分子筛.ZSM-11与ZSM-5分子筛具有相似的孔道结构,我们以前的实验结果表明,与ZSM-5相比,ZSM-11表现出更优越的芳构化反应性能,在干气中乙烯低温芳构化方面也有明显优势.在此基础上,我们进行无粘结剂ZSM-11分子筛催化剂合成,并应用于异丁烯直接胺化生产叔丁胺反应.传统水热技术合成的分子筛通常为粉末,机械强度不能达到实际应用的要求,在工业化过程中分子筛粉末一般需要加入粘结剂成型使其具备一定的机械强度和形状,但是粘结剂会降低分子筛催化剂的活性和选择性,有可能会引发一些副反应,因此无粘结剂分子筛催化剂引起人们广泛关注.无粘结剂分子筛是指分子筛颗粒中不含惰性粘结剂或只含有少量粘结剂,主要依靠分子筛晶粒间的相互作用支撑存在,具有一定形状、尺寸和机械强度的催化材料.无粘结剂分子筛催化剂中分子筛含量较高,可利用的有效表面积较大,在离子交换及工业催化等方面具有明显优势.本文采用水热合成的ZSM-11分子筛原粉与二氧化硅机械混合(ZSM-11/SiO2=70/30)挤条后,通过气固相合成法制备了无粘结剂ZSM-11分子筛催化剂(Cat-C).作为对比,还分别制备了ZSM-11和SiO2机械混合(ZSM-11/SiO2=70/30)样品HZSM-11+SiO2及ZSM-11和氧化铝机械混合(ZSM-11/Al2O3=70/30)样品HZSM-11+Al2O3.利用X射线衍射、透射电镜、NH3程序升温脱附和吸附吡啶红外光谱等对分子筛催化剂的物理化学性能进行了表征.同时,以这些分子筛样品为催化剂,在固定床反应装置上进行了异丁烯胺化反应评价,反应条件为270℃,5.0 MPa,氨烯比为4和异丁烯空速0.5 h?1.结果表明,与HZSM-11+SiO2和HZSM-11+Al2O3相比,Cat-C上叔丁胺生成速率最高.关联催化剂物化性能和反应性能发现,催化剂孔道结构与叔丁胺生成并不存在明显的关联性,而较多的Br?nsted酸和较少的Lewis酸才是Cat-C具有良好反应性能的主要原因.具有一定机械强度的无粘结剂ZSM-11分子筛催化剂制备简单,在异丁烯直接胺化过程中叔丁胺生成速率高,具有很好的工业化应用前景.     

ATR-FTIR investigation on the complexation of myo-inositol hexaphosphate with aluminum hydroxide

The adsorption isotherm of and the pH effect on the adsorption of myo-inositol hexaphosphate (myo-IP6) on amorphous aluminum hydroxide was investigated. It was found that the adsorption isotherm of myo-IP6 on aluminum hydroxide could be well fitted with the Freundlich isotherm. The amount of myo-IP6 adsorbed remained almost constant in the range of pH 4.0 to 7.0, but it decreased considerably as the initial pH was over 7. The adsorption of myo-IP6 resulted in an increase in the pH level due to the release of OH(-) ions, which suggested that the adsorption of myo-IP6 on aluminum hydroxide was caused by a ligand exchange reaction. ATR-FTIR analysis of myo-IP6 in solution and adsorbed on aluminum hydroxide at different pH were performed. The ATR-FTIR investigation indicated that myo-IP6 was adsorbed onto aluminum hydroxide by forming inner-sphere complexes and adsorption facilitated the deprotonation of phosphate groups. The asymmetric vibration of the PO bond in AlPO(-)(3) appearing at a lower frequency than that in the terminal HPO(-)(3) indicated that Al bound to the O atom not as strongly as the H atom did. The ATR-FTIR investigation and theoretical calculation (with the Gaussian 03 program) revealed that three of the six phosphate groups in myo-IP6 molecules were bound to aluminum hydroxide while the other three remained free when myo-IP6 was adsorbed on aluminum hydroxide.     

氨基酸在乙醇/磷酸氢二钾双水相体系中分配行为

研究了5种结构和性质各异的氨基酸(谷氨酸,半胱氨酸,苯丙氨酸,赖氨酸,精氨酸)在亲水性有机溶剂乙醇和磷酸盐溶液形成的乙醇/K2HPO4双水相体系中的分配行为及其影响因素。当双水相体系中乙醇的质量分数从22%增加到30%时,半胱氨酸和苯丙氨酸的分配系数明显增大,其它三种氨基酸的分配系数变化幅度不大;当磷酸盐的质量分数从14%增加到22%时,氨基酸的分配系数的变化均不明显;双水相体系的pH值对氨基酸的分配系数影响较大,当pH增加时,5种氨基酸的分配系数均增加,但是当pH约为9.5时,苯丙氨酸、半胱氨酸的分配系数接近相等但与其它3种氨基酸的分配系数相差较多,当pH为6.0~8.0时,苯丙氨酸的分配系数远远大于另外4种氨基酸。氨基酸的支链结构中含有非极性基团将导致其分配系数的增加。
