The use of absorbents is one of the most common techniques to tackle this problem. These absorbents can be classified based on their characteristics of recyclability into irreversible and reversible ones. In this review, we discuss the application of several materials as oil absorbents, according to their classification and characteristics such as hydrophobicity, surface area and oil absorption capacity. Also, the fabrication methods for some materials are presented and analyzed.展开更多

The calculation results show that the substituted halogen has two effects on the 1-3 H transfer reaction: decreasing the activation energy and stabilizing the C=N double bond owing to the conjugative effect of p-π-p of products and transition states.展开更多

The results indicated that TeNPs were dispersion excellent in the TeNPs - sucrose sol and the morphology of TeNPs was needle-like with about 70 nm in width and 500 nm in length. The antioxidant activity of the TeNPs - sucrose sol in vitro was estimated by pyrogallol autoxidation method, Fenton method and oxygen radical absorbance capacity （ORAC） assay. The results showed that a certain amount of TeNPs - sucrose sol could effectively scavenge superoxide anion free radical and hydroxyl free radical with scavenging rates of 73 % and 57 %, respectively. ORAC assay was used to measure the total antioxidant capacity of TeNPs - sucrose sol. The order of ORAC values was 2.25 μmol.L-1 TeNPs - 0.025 % sucrose sol 〉 0.025 % sucrose 〉 2.25 μmol.L-1 Na2TeO3 〉 1.63 μmol.L-1 ascorbic acid. The results suggested that the TeNPs - sucrose sol had the excellent antioxidant activity and TeNPs were the dominating contributors to antioxidant capacity of the TeNPs - sucrose sol.展开更多
