Thermal behaviour and firing characteristics of Zr/KClO4 primer mixture containing CuO

The effect of CuO on the thermal behaviour of Zr/KClO₄ primer mixtures was studied by thermoanalytical techniques, and the Bruceton method and its related calculation. It was found that the CuO catalytically promoted the decomposition of Zr/KClO₄ primer mixtures and shifted the exothermic peak of DSC curves to lower temperatures. In addition, the Zr/KClO₄ primer mixture containing CuO had a significant effect on the firing characteristics of electro-explosive devices.     

La2Zr2O7催化剂结构相变对甲烷氧化偶联反应性能的影响

采用共沉淀法并通过改变焙烧温度制备了一系列具有不同晶相结构的La₂Zr₂O₇催化剂，在微型固定床反应器上评价其甲烷氧化偶联反应性能，并利用XRD、Raman、CO₂-TPD、XPS等表征手段，探究催化剂的物相结构、表面碱性以及表面氧物种的变化规律。结果表明，随着焙烧温度从700℃逐渐升高到1200℃，La₂Zr₂O₇催化剂结晶度不断提高，晶相发生明显变化，从无定形结构逐渐向缺陷萤石结构过渡，最终转变成烧绿石结构。焙烧温度提高促使La₂Zr₂O₇晶相转变过程中，催化剂表面的碱性强度减弱，中等碱性位数量以及具有催化活性的表面氧物种O₂^2-和O₂^-的相对含量不断减少，致使催化剂的CH₄转化率和C₂₊选择性不断降低。其中，无定形LZO-CP-700催化剂表现出最佳的甲烷氧化偶联反应性能。

Zirconium(IV)-porphyrins as novel ionophores for fluoride-selective polymeric membrane electrodes

The feasibility of using Zr(IV)-porphyrins as novel ionophores for preparing anion-selective polymeric membrane electrodes is examined. Electrodes constructed using o-nitrophenyl octyl ether plasticized poly(vinyl chloride) membranes containing Zr(IV)-octaethylporphyrin (OEP) dichloride (Zr(IV)[OEP]Cl₂) or Zr(IV)-tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP) dichloride (Zr(IV)[TPP]Cl₂) were found to exhibit enhanced potentiometric selectivity toward fluoride compared to electrodes based on a typical anion-exchanger (e.g. tridodecylmethylammonium chloride). At pH 5.5, the electrodes displayed the following selectivity sequences: ClO₄⁻ > SCN⁻ > I⁻ > F⁻ > NO₃⁻ > Br⁻ > NO₂⁻ > Cl⁻ and F⁻ > ClO₄⁻ > SCN⁻ > I⁻ > NO₂⁻ > NO₃⁻ > Br⁻ > Cl⁻ for membranes doped with Zr(IV)[OEP]Cl₂) and Zr(IV)[TPP]Cl₂, respectively. Both ionophores are shown to operate via a charged carrier mechanism, with 10 mol% of lipophilic tetraphenylborate derivative in the membrane phase required to achieve optimal selectivity. Electrodes prepared with both metalloporphyrin species display super-Nernstian response toward fluoride with slopes typically greater than −100 mV per decade. It is shown, via UV-VIS spectroscopy of the membrane phase, that this behavior occurs due to spontaneous formation of hydroxide ion bridged porphyrin dimers in the membrane in the presence of the lipophilic anionic additive. The dimers are easily converted to monomeric species upon increasing the concentration of fluoride in the sample solution. Decreasing the pH of sample buffer background solution (from pH 5.5 to pH 3) decreases the lower detection limit (DL) of the electrode response toward fluoride (by two-order of magnitude) and improves the electrodes’ selectivity.     

Synthesis and Structure of the Centered Cluster Compound Ba3(Zr6Cl18Be)

Reaction of powdered Zr with ZrCl₄, BaCl₂ and Be in suitable proportions in a Ta container at 800°C produces the title compound. Suitable monocrystals for X-ray diffraction were obtained from reactions to which a comparable amount of Hg₂Cl₂ had been added. The structure of Ba₃Zr₆Cl₁₈Be is a superstructure of the K₂ZrCl₆ · Zr₆Cl₁₈H type (R3 c, Z = 6; a = 9.6852 (9) Å, c = 52.52 (1) Å; R, R_w = 2.7, 3.2% for 826 independent reflections, 2θ ≤ 50°). Trigonally compressed [Zr₆(Be)Cl₁₂ⁱ]Cl₆^a clusters are interconnected by six-coordinate barium atoms that lie in Cl^a antiprisms (a twisted version of the Zr^IV site) while (9 + 3)-coordinate barium substitutes for potassium within chlorine layers. Distortions associated with the size and field of barium are responsible for the superstructure and for differences from other analogues.     

KClO_4/Zr在石英管内的燃烧发射光谱与燃烧产物分析

为了研究燃烧条件对KClO_4/Zr烟火剂燃烧过程中光辐射性能的影响,考察了KClO_4/Zr在开放环境和不同规格封闭石英管内的燃烧发射光谱和燃烧产物。借助光纤光谱仪、光电二极管和示波器测试了烟火剂燃烧过程中的光辐射能量分布和闪光时间-强度曲线,分析了所得发射光谱在(590±10),(750±10)和(808±10)nm三个主吸收波段内的光谱效率,借助SEM表征了不同燃烧条件下KClO_4/Zr燃烧产物的形貌。结果表明:在开放条件下燃烧时,KClO_4/Zr的燃烧发射光谱在可见光到近红外的宽波段内,最强辐射出现在730~820nm波段。在石英管内封闭燃烧时,随着石英管体积的减少,在石英管外检测到的燃烧发射光谱强度逐渐减弱,光谱能量分布也呈现不同的变化规律,而且对火焰发射光谱分布进行处理后,随着石英管体积的变化,得到(590±10),(750±10)和(808±10)nm波段的光谱效率也呈现不同的变化规律。但是,随着石英管体积的减少,KClO_4/Zr烟火剂的爆燃闪光辐射时间逐渐缩短,峰值辐射强度逐渐提高。增加石英管的直径,有利于在管外获得更高的有效光辐射能量,减少石英管的直径,则有利于提高烟火剂的峰值辐射强度。随着管直径的增大,KClO_4燃烧更加充分,产物粒径较小,呈规则的球状。而管长度的改变对反应并无太大影响。     

89Zr Labeled Fe3O4@TiO2 Nanoparticles: In Vitro Afffinities with Breast and Prostate Cancer Cells

In this study, Fe₃O₄@TiO₂ nanoparticles were synthesized as a new Positron Emission Tomography/Magnetic Resonance Imaging (PET/MRI) hybrid imaging agent and radiolabeled with ⁸⁹Zr. In addition, Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles were synthesized and radiolabeled with ⁸⁹Zr. Df-Bz-NCS was used as bifunctional ligand. The nanoconjugates were characterized with transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and dynamic light scattering. Radiolabeling yields were 100%. Breast and prostate cancer cell affinities and cytotoxicity were determined using in vitro cell culture assays. The results demonstrated that Fe₃O₄@TiO₂ nanoparticles are promising for PET/MR imaging. Finally, unlike Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles, Fe₃O₄@TiO₂ nanoparticles showed a fluorescence spectrum at an excitation wavelength of 250 nm and an emission wavelength of 314 nm. Therefore, in addition to bearing the magnetic properties of Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles, Fe₃O₄@TiO₂ nanoparticles display fluorescence emission. This provides them with photodynamic therapy potential. Therefore multimodal treatment was performed with the combination of PDT and RT by using human prostate cancer cell line (PC3). The development of ⁸⁹Zr-Df-Bz-NCS-Fe₃O₄@TiO₂ nanoparticles as a new multifunctional PET/MRI agent with photodynamic therapy and hyperthermia therapeutic ability would be very useful.
