By using the seed-catalyzed reduction technique, anisotropic Fe2O3@Au core/shell particles with spindle morphology were successfully prepared. The Fe2O3 particles with spindle morphology were initially prepared as original cores. The Au nanoparticles of 2 nm were attached onto the Fe2O3 particles through organosilane molecules. Uniform Au shell formed onto Fe2O3 core modified by Au nanoparticles through the in-situ reduction of HAuCl4. The shell thickness was controlled through regulating the concentration of HAuCl4 solution. The results of TEM, XRD and UV-vis characterization show that the core/shell particles with the original shape of the Fe2O3 particles are obtained and these surfaces are covered by Au shell completely. The surface enhanced Raman spectrum of the probe molecules adsorbed on these core/shell substrates is strong and the intensity is enhanced with the increase of the thickness of Au shell or the aspect ratio of particles. The spindle Fe2O3@Au core/shell particles exhibit optimum (SERS) activity.展开更多

Then, the Fe3O4 nanoparticles and Fe3O4@SiO2 composite nanoparticles were characterized by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectra, scanning electron microscope (SEM) and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM).

The particle size of nano-α-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> was determined by nano-particle size analyzer, and the effects of nano-α-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> content, ethanol-aqueous solution ratio and KH560 dosage on the dispersion and particle size of nano-α-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> were investigated. The material structure before and after modification was determined by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Aqueous polyurethane resin and inorganic components are combined with modified nano-α-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> dispersion to form chromium-free passivation solution. The solution is coated on the galvanized sheet, the adhesion and surface hardness are tested, the bonding strength of the coating and the surface hardness of the substrate are discussed. The corrosion resistance and surface morphology of the matrix were investigated by electrochemical test, neutral salt spray test and scanning electron microscope test. The chromium-free passivation film formed after the modification of nano-α-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> increases the surface hardness of galvanized sheet by about 85%. The corrosion resistance of the film is better than that of a single polyurethane film. The results show that the surface hardness and corrosion resistance of polyurethane resin composite passivation film are significantly improved by the introduction of nano-α-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>.展开更多

It is found that the freshly prepared hydrosol of Fe2O3 nanoparticles is not stable. The surface pressure increases with the aging time and finally approaches a constant, and the smaller the concentration is, the smaller the surface pressure is stabilized at and the shorter the time the hydrosol reaching stable needs. The surface pressure also increases with compression until collapsed, and the longer the hydrosol is aged, the higher the collapsing pressure is. A uniform and compact film composed of nanoparticles with an average diameter of about 2-3 nm on the air-hydrosol interface is observed by Brewster angle microscope and transmission electron microscope.展开更多

Furthermore, the resulting nanoparticles were successfully applied in the electrophoretic display cell, which demonstrated that it was an effective approach to preparing chromatic electrophoretic particles.展开更多

The results indicated that particle size and content of silicon powder affected the cold crushing strength of coked specimens. It increased with the addition of silicon powder and its finer particle size. However, it decreased greatly when using too fine silicon powder. The particle size and content of silicon powder also impacted the phase evolution and microstructure of coked specimens, much more β-SiC whiskers constituted network structure and well distributed in specimens with reduction of their slenderness ratios when finer silicon powder was added, corresponding to that, the specimens＇ pore size distribution range became narrower with smaller pore diameter, but β-SiC whiskers were distributed sparsely and the specific pore volume of small pores increased when much finer powder was added. It was worthly mentioned that some nitride could form in specimens with addition of appropriate particle size and content of silicon powder.展开更多

The isolated DAO was complexed with Fe2O3 nanoparticles and its potential as an oxidation therapeutic agent was analysed. The ability of the complex in eliciting H2O2 mediated cytotoxicity was studied on Dalton’s lymphoma ascites cells (DLA). The induction of apoptosis in DLA cells by Fe2O3-DAO complex was studied by morphological examination and alkaline single cell gel electrophoresis (comet assay). The antitumor activity of the complex was investigated by oral administration of the complex and the substrate D-alanine to tumor bearing Swiss albino mice and by targeting the complex to the tumor site, using an externally applied magnetic field. Fe2O3-DAO along with D-alanine showed remarkable cytotoxicity in a substrate concentration-dependent manner. Both morphological examination and comet assay revealed that Fe2O3-DAO/D-alanine induced apoptosis. Oral administration of Fe2O3-DAO and D-alanine along with magnetic targeting significantly suppressed tumor growth in mice. The present report provides the first evidence for the promising application of enzyme bound nanoparticles for targeted oxidation therapy.展开更多

文摘The Y-Eu oxalate precursor was prepared with a homogeneous precipitation method. And the additives, Na2CO3, S, NaCl or their combination, were introduced into the precursor to prepare Y2O3 ：Eu^3＋ red phosphors at 1000 1300 ℃ for 2 h. The effect of molten salts on particle size and luminescent intensity was studied. The experimental results showed that the complex molten salt （Na：CO3 ＋ S ＋ NaCl） was conductive to enhance the luminescent intensity of Y2O3 ：Eu^3＋. The emission intensity of the phosphor prepared with these additives at 1300 ℃ was about 45% higher than that of the one prepared without molten salt, and about 11% higher than that of the corresponding commercial phosphor. Meanwhile, the particle size of Y2O3 ：Eu^3＋ phosphor was controlled effectively with the molten salt.
