催化膜和催化膜反应器:整合的高效和环保催化过程

 The design of new heterogeneous photooxygenation systems able to employ visible light, oxygen, mild temperatures, and solvent with a low environmental impact has been investigated. In particular, the heterogenization of decatungstate (W10O4-32), a polyoxometalate with photocatalytic activity in oxidation reactions, has been carried out in polymeric membranes of polyvinylidenefluoride. The polymeric catalytic membranes prepared by phase inversion technique have been successfully applied in the aerobic mineralization of phenol in water, which was used as an example of organic pollutant. In order to evaluate the effect of the polymeric environment on the overall catalyst behavior, we have also heterogenized the decatungstate (opportunely functionalized) in perfluorinated membrane made of Hyflon. The photocatalytic composite membranes are characterized by different and tuneable properties depending on the nature of the polymeric micro-environment, in which the catalyst is confined. Moreover, the selective separation function of the membrane results in enhanced performance in comparison with homogeneous reactions.

金催化乙炔氢氯化的密度泛函理论研究进展

乙炔氢氯化(AH)是生产氯乙烯的主要途径之一,传统上使用高毒性的汞催化剂,因此开发无汞催化剂迫在眉睫。金(Au)催化剂是最有潜力的替代催化剂之一,然而其活性Au物种、反应物的活化过程或反应过渡态结构等催化机理仍不够清晰。密度泛函理论（DFT）在研究由Au催化AH的反应机理中发挥了极其重要的作用。本文综述了DFT对金催化剂活性位点、反应物在催化剂上的吸附性质及反应机理的研究进展。重点讨论了DFT对阳离子金和金簇催化AH反应过程的模拟计算,包括Au电子状态、其它原子掺杂及金簇尺寸和形状对催化AH反应影响的模拟。结果表明DFT模拟计算在微观分子尺度上研究反应物的吸附、反应中间体及过渡态等方面发挥了关键作用,对理解Au催化AH反应机理做出了重要贡献。

Polyoxometalate/Cellulose Nanofibrils Aerogels for Highly Efficient Oxidative Desulfurization

Polyoxometalate (POM) presents great potential in oxidative desulfurization (ODS) reaction. However, the high dissolubility of POM in common solvents makes it difficult to recycle. Besides, the small specific surface area of POM also limits the interaction between them and the substrate. Depositing polyoxometalates onto three-dimensional (3D) network structured materials could largely expand the application of POM. Here, the surfaces of cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs) were modified with very few (3-Aminopropyl) trimethoxysilane (APTS) to endow positive charges on the surfaces of CNFs, and then phosphotungstic acid (PTA) was loaded to obtain the aerogel A-CNF/PTA as the ODS catalyst. FT-IR indicated the successful deposition of PTA onto aminosilane modified CNF surfaces. UV-VIS further suggested the stability of PTA in the aerogels. BET and SEM results suggested the increased specific surface area and the relatively uniform 3D network structure of the prepared aerogels. TGA analysis indicated that the thermal stability of the aerogel A-CNF/PTA50% was a little higher than that of the pure CNF aerogel. Most importantly, the aerogel A-CNF/PTA50% showed good catalytic performance for ODS. Catalysis results showed that the substrate conversion rate of the aerogel A-CNF/PTA50% reached 100% within 120 min at room temperature. Even after five cycles, the substrate conversion rate of the aerogel A-CNF/PTA50% still reached 91.2% during the dynamic catalytic process. This work provides a scalable and facile way to stably deposit POM onto 3D structured materials.     

Au@碳球复合结构中Au颗粒位置调控光吸收

采用时域有限差分（FDTD）法研究Au纳米颗粒@碳球（AuNPs@CS）复合结构的光吸收控制。发现Au纳米颗粒@碳球复合结构中Au颗粒的位置可以控制复合结构光吸收。模型计算中选取两粒Au纳米颗粒以最佳深度（0 nm）嵌入碳球表面。当两粒Au颗粒球心与碳球球心夹角为22.5°和45°时,复合结构光吸收较单一碳球光吸收明显增强;当夹角为315°、270°、180°、90°时,光吸收增量逐渐减小;当夹角为337.5°时,光吸收量低于单一碳球。这一结果主要归因于Au纳米颗粒位置变化可引起表面等离子体光强度和光散射方向的变化。改变碳球表面Au纳米颗粒的数量和位置,可以进一步调节AuNPs@CS复合结构的光吸收。     

Laser‐Induced Self‐Assembled Nanostructures on Electron‐Transparent Substrates

Currently, one of the challenges in high‐resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM) studies of nanomaterials is to make contamination‐free materials in a simple and time‐efficient way. Here, a method is demonstrated that combines nanosecond‐pulsed laser dewetting of thin films with a film float‐off technique to realize nanostructures (NSs) on electron‐transparent substrates in a robust and rapid manner. NSs of metal (Ag) and bimetals (AgCo, AuCo) ranging from 20 to 150 nm are synthesized on thin carbon film deposited on mica substrates. The NS/carbon system is subsequently transferred onto TEM grids by a float‐off process resulting from debonding of the carbon from mica due to their contrasting hydrophobic nature. This process enables the fabrication of different NSs on flexible and electron‐transparent substrates.     

A study on the distribution of adsorbed nanoparticles

We use Monte Carlo simulation to calculate the distributions of particles under adsorption force near planar and cylindrical surfaces,respectively.Both hard sphere interaction and repulsive Yukawa (screened coulomb) interaction are employed in our simulations.We study the influence of the inter-particle potentials.The difference between the MC simulation results and the analytical results of ideal gas model shows that the interaction between particles plays an important role in the density distribution under external fields.Moreover,the 2-dimensional constructions of particles close to the surface are studied and show relations of the interaction between particles.These results may indicate us how to improve the methods of building nanoparticle coatings and nano-scale patterns.

用于乙烯环氧化反应的CuCs掺杂银基催化剂设计

最近的理论研究筛选出CuCs掺杂Ag基催化剂是一种高效的乙烯环氧化催化剂[ACS Catal. 11,3371 (2021)]. 然而,该工作是基于研究表面建模预测Ag基催化剂的性能,在实际反应过程中,Ag基催化剂是颗粒状的. 本文结合密度函数理论、Wulff构造理论和微观动力学分析来研究Ag基催化剂在颗粒模型上的催化性能. 研究表明,CuCs掺杂Ag基催化剂在选择性和活性方面都优于纯Ag基催化剂,这一点通过实验得到了证明. 进一步地表征分析发现,CuCs掺杂能促进颗粒的生长以及颗粒的分散,从而形成富含晶界的Ag颗粒. 此外,CuCs促进了催化剂表面亲电氧的形成,这均有利于环氧乙烷的形成和解吸. 本工作为理论与实验相结合的催化剂设计提供了一个案例研究.
