The Ca(OH)2 monocrystal powder samples were characterized by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), and Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The NOx adsorption ability of the samples was evaluated, and the influence of various types and concentrations of surfactants on powder agglomeration and then the specific surface area in the precipitation process were studied. The specific surface area of the samples was found as high as 58 m2/g and 92 m2/g and the particle size, 300-400 nm and 200-300 nm in the presence of 10 wt% PEG600 and 0.086 mL/L SDS at a reaction time of 5 h, respectively. The product has an exceptionally strong adsorption ability for NOx, which makes it a highly promising adsorbent for emission control and air purification.展开更多
