钙钛矿型氧化物负载纳米金属催化剂结构的动态调变及其催化氧化CO反应性能

研究了钛酸钡和钛酸钙担载的Ag和Pt纳米催化剂的表面结构随氧化-还原处理过程的动态变化及其对CO完全氧化反应性能的影响.发现氧化物担载的Ag催化剂在氧化处理后其催化活性较还原处理的高; X射线衍射(XRD)和X射线光电子能谱(XPS)表征结果表明,氧化处理能够提高载体表面Ag颗粒的分散度,而还原处理导致Ag颗粒的聚集,从而降低了催化氧化CO反应的活性.氧化-还原处理改变了担载Ag纳米粒子的尺寸并影响其CO氧化反应活性.与此相反,氧化物担载的Pt催化剂在还原处理后所表现出的CO氧化反应活性较氧化处理的高; 对比研究发现,氧化和还原处理后Pt纳米粒子的尺寸基本相同,但是氧化处理的样品中Pt表面物种以氧化态为主,而还原处理后Pt表面物种主要为金属态.Pt纳米粒子表面化学状态随氧化-还原处理的调变是导致表面催化活性差异的主要原因.     

A re-examination of platinum-group element concentrations in the environmental certified reference material BCR-723

A detailed statistical examination of replicated data used to certify platinum-group elements (PGEs) in environmental reference material BCR-723 is presented. Certification of Pt, Pd, and Rh concentrations in BCR-723 was based on 16, eight, and nine accepted data sets, respectively. Each accepted data set contained six replicated measurements for each PGE, and the statistical properties of these concentration data were examined, i.e. 96 for Pt, 48 for Pd, and 54 for Rh. This level of investigation has received limited attention but is critical in furthering our understanding of PGE variability and representativeness. Concentrations of Pt, Pd, and Rh were shown to differ significantly between accepted data sets. Palladium and Pt differed in their quantification between detection techniques. Additionally, Pd and Pt concentrations varied significantly between laboratories using a similar definitive method (inductively coupled plasma-isotope dilution mass spectrometry). The distribution of Pd concentrations was found to be bimodal, with a secondary population exhibiting a contamination signal of about 15%. The secondary population, not previously reported in BCR-723, is likely a measurement artifact and not due to a nugget effect. Comparisons of BCR-723 with other environmental media from Europe, i.e. airborne particulate matter, tunnel dust, and road-deposited sediment, indicated that Pd is uncommonly low in BCR-723 (6.0?ng?g^?1) and is generally not representative in terms of its distribution relative to Pt and Rh. Serious consideration should be given to developing a new PGE certified environmental reference material.     

Bimetallic Co–Pd alloy nanoparticles as magnetically recoverable catalysts for the aerobic oxidation of alcohols in water

Co–Pd bimetallic alloy nanoparticle catalysts were prepared from CoCl₂, Pd(OAc)₂ and several capping agents with Li(C₂H₅)₃BH. The nanoparticle catalysts were applied to the aerobic oxidation of a variety of alcohols in water to give the corresponding carbonyl products. The catalyst was magnetically recovered and reused for further oxidation. The nanoparticle catalysts were characterized with TEM, ICP, and XPS analyses.     

Optical properties of highly planar diketopyrrolopyrrole derivatives fixed by coordinate bonds

Diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) derivatives bearing 2-pyridyl groups were synthesized, which could serve as anionic N,N′-chelate ligands consisting of two nitrogen atoms of the lactam moieties and the pyridyl groups. Coordination of the DPP ligand to boron and platinum yielded the corresponding DPP complexes. Their crystal structures exhibited coplanar structures between the DPP core and the 2-pyridyl groups, which indicated extended π-conjugation. The maximum absorption wavelength of the DPP complexes was longer than that of the corresponding DPP ligands. The choice of the introduced element affects the optical properties of the DPP complexes; the platinum complex has a longer absorption wavelength than the boron complex. The theoretical calculation revealed that these absorptions can be attributed to the π–π* transition. The introduction of the coordinating elements predominantly lowers the band gap. In addition, the substituent on the 2-pyridyl group can also modulate the energy levels.

Nine Hg(II) complexes, [Hg(DiphtS)₂(L-L)](2–7) {where, HDiphtS = 4,5-diphenyl-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol; L-L = bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane (dppe) (2); 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane (dppp)(3); 1,4-bis(diphenylphosphino)butane (dppb)(4); 1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene (dppf)(5); 2,2′-bipyridine (Bipy)(6) and 1,10-phenanthroline (Phen)(7) } or [Hg(DiphtS)₂(L)₂] (8–9) {where L = triphenylphosphine (Ph₃P) (8) and triphenylphosphine sulphide (Ph₃PS) (9)}, have been prepared form the reaction of [Hg(DiphtS)₂](1) with phosphine or amine as co-ligands. Then characterized by the IR, NMR (¹H and ³¹P) spectroscopy, elemental analysis, molar conductivity. The results supported the monodentate behaviour of HDiphtS ligand in all complexes (1–9) in anion form through the sulfur atom. Complexes 1, 2 and 6 have been used as single source precursors for the preparation of ethylene-diamine capped HgS-nanoparticles. Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), have been used to characterize the HgS nanoparticles.     

Block Copolymer Supported Gold Nanoparticles Assemblies with Exposed Gold Surface

Polymer-involved nanoparticles or nanoparticle assemblies are now facing a crossroad, where the exposure of nanoparticle and multiple nanoparticles cannot be obtained at the same time. Therefore, a new series of nanoparticle clusters is synthesized, where multiple gold nanoparticles assemble with amphiphilic block copolymers supporting inside. The exposure of gold nanoparticles of the structure is confirmed and increases the reduction rate of 4-nitrophenol by 60%. The assemblies can also be used as surface enhanced Raman scattering(SERS) probes with an enhancement factor(EF) as high as 3×10³.     

Facile Surfactant-, Reductant-, and Ag Salt-free Growth of Ag Nanoparticles with Controllable Size from 35 to 660 nm on Bulk Ag Materials

Morphologically and dimensionally controlled growth of Ag nanocrystals has long been plagued by surfactants or capping agents that complicate downstream applications, unstable Ag salts that impaired the reproducibility, and multistep seed injection that is troublesome and time-consuming. Here, we report a one-pot electro-chemical method to fast (∼2 min) produce Ag nanoparticles from commercial bulk Ag materials in a nitric acid solution, eliminating any need for surfactants or capping agents. Their size can be easily manipulated in an unprecedentedly wide range from 35 to 660 nm. Furthermore, the Ag nanoparticles are directly grown on the Ag substrate, highly desirable for promising applications such as catalysis and plasmonics. The mechanistic studies reveal that the concentration of Ag⁺ in the diffusion layer nearby the surface, controlled by the magnitude and duration of voltage, is critical in governing the nanoparticle formation (<1.3 mM) and its dimensional adjustability.
