Organic molecular beam deposition of oligophenyls on Au111: A study by X-ray absorption spectroscopy.

Near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectroscopy has been applied to reveal the molecular arrangement of ultrathin oligophenyl films [p-quaterphenyl (4P) and p-hexaphenyl (6P)] on Au(111). In the half-monolayer films the molecules lie flat on the surface but still have a considerable inter-ring twist of 30 degrees -40 degrees , similar to the gas-phase conformation. In the saturated monolayer film the second half of the molecules is side-tilted by an angle of less than 66 degrees with respect to the surface. This arrangement is already similar to that in bulk net planes of thicker films parallel to the surface, that is, the 4P(211) and 6P(21-3) planes, respectively.     

羧酸在笼形聚偕氨肟树脂上吸咐

碱处理笼形聚偕氨肟树脂（BCAO）对羧酸表现出强的吸附能力。一元羧酸在BCAO树脂上以多层吸附为主要特征。二元和三元羧酸则以单层吸附占优势。后者可能是以双阴离子的一个负极吸着在BCAO树脂表面，形成了对其他羧酸阴离子起排斥作用的负离子场。另外，双阴离子也有可能和两个氨基结合形成次级交联，妨碍着其他离子迁移和扩散。     

Adsorption enthalpy and desorption enthalpy during displacement of adsorbate to solvent in a liquid-solid system

The adsorption heat of the stoichiometric displacement process for the adsorption of a solute in a liquid-solid system was investigated. On the basis of the SDM-A and the rule of the additivity of energy, an expression which describes the dependence of the adsorption enthalpy on the nature and concentration of the solute, and on the solvent and adsorbent, was derived. The adsorption heat determined for the solute with the traditional method can be divided into two independent fractions, relating to the adsorption of the solute and to the desorption of the solvent. Experimental data on both isotherms from the literatures and precise calorimetry were used to test the adsorption heat and its fractions computed quantitatively via the equations presented in this study, and a satisfactory degree of conformity between them was obtained.

Low-Field NMR Relaxation Analysis of High-Pressure Ethane Adsorption in Mesoporous Silicas

Understanding the behaviour of short-chain hydrocarbons confined to porous solids informs the targeted extraction of natural resources from geological features, and underpins rational developments in separation, storage and catalytic conversion processes. Herein, we report the application of low-field (12.7 MHz) ¹H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) relaxation measurements to characterise ethane dynamics within mesoporous silica materials exhibiting mean pore diameters between 6 and 50 nm. Our measurements provide NMR-based adsorption isotherms within the range 25–50 bar and at ambient temperature, incorporating the ethane condensation point (40.7 bar at our experimental temperature of 23.6 °C). The quantitative nature of the acquired data is validated via a direct comparison of NMR-derived excess adsorption capacities with ex situ gravimetric ethane adsorption measurements, which are demonstrated to agree to within 0.2 mmol g⁻¹ of the observed ethane capacity. NMR relaxation time distributions are further demonstrated as a means to decouple interparticle and mesopore dominated adsorption phenomena, with unexpectedly rapid relaxation rates associated with interparticle ethane gas confirmed via a direct comparison with NMR self-diffusion analysis.

Production of oxygen enriched air by rapid pressure swing adsorption

A novel rapid pressure swing adsorption (RPSA) process is described for production of 25–50% oxygen enriched air. The embodiment consists of one or more pairs of adsorbent layers contained in a single adsorption vessel. The layers undergo simultaneous pressurization-adsorption and simultaneous depressurization-purge steps. A total cycle time of 6–20 seconds is used. The process yields a very large specific oxygen production rate and a reasonable oxygen recovery for production of 20–50 mole% oxygen enriched gas.It is demonstrated by a simple mathematical model of isothermal single adsorbate pressure swing ad(de)sorption concept on a single adsorbent particle that the specific production rate of a PSA process cannot be indefinitely increased by reducing the cycle time of operation when adsorbate mass transfer resistances are finite.     

Adsorption of an amphipatic copolymer on a kidney dialysis membrane

We have studied the adsorption of a copolymer of acrylonitrile and methacrylate of nonaethyleneglycol on a kidney dialysis membrane, which contains mostly nitrile groups. The kinetics study reveals at first a rapid increase of the adsorbance, followed by slow variations suggesting rearrangements at the interface. The isotherms do not present a true plateau at high concentration. The high adsorbance observed at low pH or high salt concentration could be related to the ability of polyethyleneoxide to form a complex with cations.     

Removal of H2S from Exhaust Gas by Use of Alkaline Activated Carbon

The purpose of this research was to select an activated carbon and alkaline solution blend that generated the best H₂S adsorption on alkaline-activated carbon. RB₂ (activated carbon) impregnated with NaOH solution was shown to have the optimum H₂S removal efficiency. The optimum NaOH concentration was 50 mg per gram of carbon. H₂S adsorption via RB₂-NaOH₅₀ was five times that of a corresponding fresh-activated carbon. The adsorption equivalent of H₂S is nearly 1 (mol-H₂S/mol-AOH), therefore, H₂S + AOH AHS + H₂O was the major reaction. The H₂S adsorption isotherm corresponded to the Freundlich isotherm.     

Corrugated single-layer graphite sheet as a model of stepped surface of a crystal

Electronic structure calculations have been performed for flat graphite sheets and periodically distorted sheets with different values of deformation angle and hydrogen adsorption. These characteristics do not all behave monotonically with increasing deformation angle. At small deformation angles, the electrons pass from the atoms of terraces to those of edges, while at larger angles the reverse pattern is observed. The position of the Fermi level also varies nonmonotonically. The binding energy of hydrogen depends significantly on the adsorption site, and the difference can be doubled. Based on the ata obtained, it was concluded that a priori statements derived from the “general concepts” on the difference in the physicochemical properties of, for example, terrace and edge atoms on high-index facets are unreliable.     

Adsorption of fast green and erythrosin-B to montmorillonite modified with crystal violet

Adsorption of erythrosin-B (EB) and fast green (FG) to a non-charged organosmectite based on crystal violet adsorbed up to 100% of the cation exchange capacity (CEC) was tested. Adsorption isotherms of EB and FG were prepared at 3, 24 and 50°C. All isotherms are of H-type reaching loads of approximately up to 20% of the original CEC of the crude montmorillonite (up to 0.15 and 0.10 mol dye kg^–1 clay for EB and FG, respectively). Adsorption decreases with temperature, indicating an exothermic process. Enthalpy was evaluated using van’t Hoff equation, yielding approximately –20 kJ mol^–1 for both dyes.
