Single‐crystalline gold microplates grown on substrates by solution‐phase synthesis

Chemically synthesized single‐crystalline gold microplates have been attracting increasing interest because of their potential as high‐quality gold films for nanotechnology. We present the growth of tens of nanometers thick and tens of micrometers large single‐crystalline gold plates directly on solid substrates by solution‐phase synthesis. Compared to microplates deposited on substrates from dispersion phase, substrate‐grown plates exhibit significantly higher quality by avoiding severe small‐particle contamination and aggregation. Substrate‐grown gold plates also open new perspectives to study the growth mechanism via step‐growth and observation cycles of a large number of individual plates. Growth models are proposed to interpret the evolution of thickness, area and shape of the plates. It is found that the plate surface remains smooth after regrowth, implying the applicability of regrowth for producing giant plates as well as unique single‐crystalline nano‐structures.     

Semiconductor and Metallic Core–Shell Nanostructures: Synthesis and Applications in Solar Cells and Catalysis

Nano‐heterostructures have attracted great attention due to their extraordinary properties beyond those of their single‐component counterparts. This review focuses on a specific type of hybrid structures: core–shell structures. In particular, we present and discuss the recent wet‐chemical synthesis approaches for semiconductor and metallic core–shell nanostructures, and their relevant properties and potential applications in photovoltaics and catalysis, respectively.     

Quantitative evaluation on oil diffusion mechanisms in nano‐organic‐montmorillonite modified caster oil‐based polyurethane foam for oil/water separation

To improve the oil absorbency of caster oil‐based polyurethane foam, nano‐organic‐montmorillonite (OMMT) was used for the additives. The aim of this study is to evaluate the oil diffusion mechanism and dispersion uniformity of OMMT modified caster oil‐based polyurethane (MPU) using experiments and molecular dynamic simulation. Molecule movement and molecule trajectory of oil was investigated by molecular dynamic simulation and numerical simulation. According to the quantitative analyzing results, the diffusion model was put forward. The average diffusion coefficient of crude oil in 0, 1, 2 wt%, 4, and 6 wt% MPU is 2.4 × 10^?4 cm²/s, 2.6 × 10^?4 cm²/s, 3.0 × 10^?4 cm²/s, 3.2 × 10^?4 cm²/s, and 3.3 × 10^?4 cm²/s, respectively. It indicated that crude oil appeared gradient in the MPU. The optimal diffusion direction of crude oil is (0, 0, 1) crystal face, and the small particles of crude oil are easy to be adsorbed. The two‐dimensional diffusion trajectory of crude oil is nonlinear. The diffusion model includes the diffusion of crude oil at the interface of oil and polyurethane, surface diffusion and pore diffusion, and pore adsorption. Furthermore, the diffusion model showed that the van der Waals force was the main reason for crude oil diffusion or adsorption. OMMT could improve the ability of oil/water separation of polyurethane.     

硫化丁苯橡胶纳观界面耐磨机理及参数影响分析

硫化橡胶因其良好的力学和物理化学性能而被广泛作为摩擦副的基础材料. 本文提出了一种硫化交联算法, 实现了C—C键的硫化互交联和自交联, 构建了硫化丁苯橡胶的分子动力学磨损模型, 从微观摩擦学的角度阐明了硫化交联结构对改善丁苯橡胶磨损性能的机理, 研究了不同界面参数对硫化橡胶微观磨损性能的影响. 结果发现 硫化使丁苯橡胶分子链的界面黏附能力和活动能力更弱, 拉伸和解缠能力更低, 磨损过程中界面累积能量更低, 更不容易脱离橡胶基体, 因此可以表现出更好的摩擦学性能, 更强的抗磨损性能; 随着速度的增大, 硫化橡胶的磨损率降低, 与宏观实验结果一致, 原因是硫化橡胶的原子分布函数和相互作用能随着速度增大而降低, 说明橡胶分子链的黏附能力和活动能力随着速度增加趋弱, 温升更低, 导致较低的磨损率; 压入深度对磨损率的影响规律则呈现相反的结果和趋势.
