Thermodynamic properties of Dysprosium rhodite (DyRhO3) are measured in the temperature range from 900 to 1,300 K using a solid-state electrochemical cell incorporating yttria-stabilized zirconia as the electrolyte. The standard Gibbs free energy of formation of DyRhO3 with O-type perovskite structure from its components binary oxides, Dysprosia with C-rare earth structure and β-Rh2O3 with orthorhombic structure, can be represented by the equation: $$ {{{\varDelta G_{{f\left( {ox} \right)}}^o\left( {\pm 182} \right)}} \left/ {{{\mathrm{J} ~ \mathrm{mo}}{{\mathrm{l}}^{{ - 1}}}}} \right.} = - 52710 + 3.821\left( {{{T} \left/ {\mathrm{K}} \right.}} \right). $$ By using the thermodynamic data for DyRhO3 from experiment and auxiliary data for other phases from the literature, the phase relations in the system Dy-Rh-O are computed. Thermodynamic data for intermetallic phases in the binary system Dy-Rh, required for constructing the chemical potential diagrams, are evaluated using calorimetric data available in the literature for three intermetallics and Miedema’s model, consistent with the phase diagram. The results are presented in the form of Gibbs triangle, oxygen potential–composition diagram, and three-dimensional chemical potential diagram at 1,273 K. Temperature–composition diagrams at constant oxygen partial pressures are also developed. The decomposition temperature of DyRhO3 is 1,732 (±2.5) K in pure oxygen and 1,624 (±2.5) K and in air at standard pressure. 相似文献
It is shown that the gold surface is catalytically deactivated and smoothened upon removal of the Prussian blue (PB)–gold nanocomposite formed on the gold surface. Atomic force microscopy proves surface smoothening after PB removal. The voltammetric responses of Ru(NH3)6Cl3 on the smoothened surface remain unaffected, but the reactions that involve multistep and inner-sphere electron transfer are affected on the smoothened surface as exemplified by hydroquinone, ferrous oxalate redox reactions, and oxygen reduction. These effects are attributed to catalytic deactivation as a consequence of removal of the active sites.

The in vitro viability, osteogenic differentiation, and mineralization of four different equine mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) from bone marrow, periosteum, muscle, and adipose tissue are compared, when they are cultured with different collagen‐based scaffolds or with fibrin glue. The results indicate that bone marrow cells are the best source of MSCs for osteogenic differentiation, and that an electrochemically aggregated collagen gives the highest cell viability and best osteogenic differentiation among the four kinds of scaffolds studied.
Catalysts with tunable porosity, crystallinity and acidity can selectively produce aviation fuels and road transportation fuels via hydroprocessing of non-edible oils. Here we discuss several catalyst supports—mesoporous alumina, silica–alumina and hierarchical mesoporous zeolites, developed and used as support for hydroprocessing catalysts (Ni–Mo, Co–Mo, Ni–W), for the selective production of transportation fuels. These developed catalysts were used for the hydroconversion of waste cooking-oil, jatropha-oil, algal-oil and their mixtures with petroleum refinery oils. The physicochemical properties of the catalyst were tuned for optimal performance on the basis of evaluation results on high pressure fixed bed microreactors and pilot scale reactors. These studies targeted the production of transportation fuels (gasoline, kerosene and diesel) by hydroprocessing (hydrotreating or hydrocracking) renewable feed stocks or co-processing with fossil based oils. Modelling and process optimization studies for prediction of kinetic rate parameters and to know the reaction pathways for the conversion of these feed stocks to various range of hydrocarbon fuels, were also carried out. These studies provided the vital information that the reaction pathways were temperature dependent. 相似文献
A series of pyrenoimidazoles that contained various functional chromophores, such as anthracene, pyrene, triphenylamine, carbazole, and fluorene, were synthesized and characterized by optical, electrochemical, and theoretical studies. The absorption spectra of the dyes are dominated by electronic transitions that arise from the pyrenoimidazole core and the additional chromophore. All of the dyes exhibited blue‐light photoluminescence with moderate‐to‐high quantum efficiencies. They also displayed high thermal stability and their thermal‐decomposition temperatures fell within the range 462–512 °C; the highest decomposition temperature was recorded for a carbazole‐containing dye. The oxidation propensity of the dyes increased on the introduction of electron‐rich chromophores, such as triphenylamine or carbazole. The application of selected dyes that featured additional chromophores such as pyrene, carbazole, and triphenylamine as blue‐emissive dopants into multilayered organic light‐emitting diodes with a 4,4′‐bis(9H‐carbazol‐9‐yl)biphenyl (CBP) host was investigated. Devices that were based on triphenylamine‐ and carbazole‐containing dyes exhibited deep‐blue emission (CIE 0.157, 0.054 and 0.163, 0.041), whereas a device that was based on a pyrene‐containing dye showed a bright‐blue emission (CIE 0.156, 0.135). 相似文献
A facile one‐pot, three‐component protocol for the synthesis of novel spiro[3H‐indole‐3,2′‐thiazolidine]‐2,4′(1H)‐diones by condensing 1H‐indole‐2,3‐diones, 4H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐4‐amine and 2‐sulfanylpropanoic acid in [bmim]PF6 (1‐butyl‐3‐methyl‐1H‐imidazolium hexafluorophosphate) as a recyclable ionic‐liquid solvent gave good to excellent yields in the absence of any catalyst (Scheme 1 and Table 2). The advantages of this protocol over conventional methods are the mild reaction conditions, the high product yields, a shorter reaction time, as well as the eco‐friendly conditions. 相似文献
