Effect of carbon content on photocatalytic activity of C/TiO2 composite

A series of carbon-covered titania (CCT) were prepared via pyrolysis of sucrose highly dispersed on titania surface in flowing N₂. The samples were characterized by XRD, BET, DTA-TG, UV—Vis, and their photocatalytic properties were evaluated with two model pollutants, methylene blue (MB) and rhodamine B (RB), at room temperature. The effect of carbon content on photocatalytic activity of the C/TiO₂ composite was investigated. It was found that the effect of carbon content is different for different pollutants or different light sources. For three tested samples, under UV illumination CCT01 has the highest activity for MB photocatalytic degradation, while in the case of RB, CCT02 is the most active photocatalyst. Under visible light illumination, CCT005 has the highest activity for both MB and RB photocatalytic degradation. Translated from Chinese Journal of Catalysis, 2006, 27(1): (in Chinese)     

Cu2+与烟草多酚氧化酶相互作用研究

本文通过酶活性测定，荧光光谱和紫外光谱研究了外加Cu²⁺与烟草多酚氧化酶(简称PPO)的相互作用。结果表明，微量铜的加入能增加酶的活性，[Cu²⁺]/[PPO]为0.20左右时酶活性最大，[Cu²⁺]/[PPO]为0.91时，Cu²⁺开始表现出对PPO活性的抑制;Cu²⁺对PPO内源荧光的猝灭机制属于形成络合物所引起的静态猝灭，猝灭常数K_sv为8.0375×10³L·mol^-1;Cu²⁺的加入使PPO蛋白质分子构象发生变化，α-螺旋含量增加，多肽链及Trp和Tyr残基的芳杂环进一步向分子内收缩，疏水基团之间的疏水作用增强。     

Texture of zirconia obtained by forced hydrolysis of ZrOCl2 solutions

The structure and surface properties of ZrO₂ strongly depend on its preparation. In the present work the impact of prolonged aging at basic conditions (pH = 9, T = 100°C, t = 48 h), on the phase composition and textural properties, obtained by calcination of the precipitate, was investigated using several techniques conjointly (DTA/TG, DSC, XRD, porosimetry). The thermal effects accompanying the ZrO₂·xH₂O gel formation, the coalescence of the particles and crystallization were evaluated and discussed in terms of the structural differences between the aged and non-aged samples. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Gas chromatography of halogenated adamantanes

The main thermodynamic characteristics of the adsorption of haloadamantanes on graphitized thermal carbon black were determined by experimental measurements and by calculations in terms of molecular-statistic theory of adsorption. Using experimental data, the Kovac retention indices were calculated and the optimum conditions for gas-chromatographic separation of haloadamantanes on stationary phases with different polarity were elucidated. The influence of the cage effect in the adamantane unit on the chromatographic properties of haloadamantanes was established.

Surface mixed adsorption films of 2,4,6- trimethylphenol–2,4,6-trichlorophenol at aqueous solution/air interface

 The results of experimental studies of the adsorption at the solution/air interface from an aqueous mixture: 2,4,6-trimethylphenol–2,4,6-trichlorophenol are presented. The surface properties of the above-mentioned mixture were studied by surface potential and surface tension measurements. These measurements were carried out as a function of the concentration of 2,4,6-trimethylphenol aqueous solution at a constant concentration of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol. Using the results obtained and based on the Gibbs equation, Helmholtz formula and Motomura’s method the relative surface excesses of adsorbed substances, effective dipole moments, surface molar fractions of solutes and miscibility of adsorbed films were determined.

添加非金属元素Si对固体超强酸SO_4~(2-)/TiO_2的改性研究

采用共沉淀法引入Ｓｉ对ＳＯ２－４／ＴｉＯ２进行改性，制得了ＳＯ２－４／Ｔｉ－Ｓｉ－Ｏ系列固体超强酸，试样经ＩＲ、ＳＥＭ、ＸＲＤ表征和低温正戊烷异构化活性测试，发现超强酸中心是硫酸根离子与金属原子Ｔｉ结合形成的双配位螯合结构，在超强酸性的样品中ＴｉＯ２均呈锐钛矿晶型。引入Ｓｉ仅迟滞ＴｉＯ２晶化过程，控制Ｓｉ在ＳＯ２－４／Ｔｉ－Ｓｉ－Ｏ体系中的含量可以有效调节固体超强酸的酸性，并提高正戊烷异构化反应的选择性。     

CexTi1-xO2复合氧化物的结构及负载CuO对NO还原性能研究

采用共沉淀法制备了不同摩尔比(x=0,0.1,0.2～0.9,1.0)的CexTi1-xO2复合氧化物,考察了CuO/CexTi1-xO2对NO+CO反应的活性,并用BET,TPR和XRD等技术对各试样进行了表征。结果表明,试样的结构和还原特性随焙烧温度变化而变化。XRD检测表明,x值从0.1增加到0.5时,650℃焙烧的试样已形成了CeTi2O6物相,且主要以无定形状态存在;试样经800℃焙烧后晶化完全;x>0.6时,一些TiO2已经进入了CeO2晶格,形成了Ce Ti固溶体。催化剂活性评价表明CuO/CexTi1-xO2(650℃)对NO+CO反应具有较好的活性,其活性随x值变化而变化。TPR及XRD结果表明CuO与CeTi2O6之间存在很强的相互作用,CeTi2O6物相的形成使CuO的还原峰温由380℃提前到200℃,而CuO的存在又促进CeTi2O6的还原峰温从600℃提前至200～300℃。     

Reaction kinetics of the selective liquid phase hydrogenation of styrene oxide to β-phenethyl alcohol

Liquid phase hydrogenation of styrene oxide using 1% Pd/C and NaOH as a promoter was found to give selectively β-phenethyl alcohol (PEA) under very mild conditions (313–333 K; 0.68–5.5 MPa). The kinetics of this system was investigated by collecting initial rate data in a batch slurry reactor. Rate of hydrogenation was found to decrease beyond a certain concentration of both hydrogen (>3 MPa) and styrene oxide (>0.5 kmol/m³). A Langmuir–Hinshelwood type rate equation has been proposed based on the initial rate data in the kinetic regime. The model predictions agree very well with the experimentally observed concentration–time data indicating the applicability of the proposed rate model.
