Relationships between equivalent conductivity at 990-1 030 ℃ and temperature and composition, and relationship between equivalent conductivity activation energy and composition of the melts were then studied on the basis of two-step decomposition mechanism of AlF63-. According to the changes of molar fractions of different anions in NaF-AlF3 melts, courses of dependence of equivalent conductivity and its activation energy on composition were analyzed. The results show that the influence of temperature on equivalent conductivity of the melts is small in the researched temperature range, and equivalent conductivity increases with increasing the molar fraction of AlF3; there is a minimum point in the activation energy—composition curve when molar fraction of AlF3 is 0.29.展开更多

The polyoxomolybdate-based IL has high stability, and its decomposing temperature reaches 321 °C, which is higher than that of 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium halides IL. Further photocatalytic performances of the IL were measured via degrading dye rhodamine B(RB) in aqueous solution under the UV light irradiation. The experiments show that the conversion of RB reaches 80.5% after 90 min under UV-light and the degradation efficiency depends on the pH value of the solution, irradiation time and the dosage of the IL and so on.展开更多
