Transmission electron microscopy(TEM), X-ray diffraction(XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectrometer(XPS), Fourier transformation infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and thermogravimetric analysis(TGA) were adopted to characterize and investigate the size, structure, composition, and the binding manners between organic capping agent TOPO and inorganic ZrO2 nanocores of the as-prepared nanoparticles. In addition, the nanoparticles were also studied to determine their solubility and relative stability. The experimental results show that the prepared nanoparticles contain about 25% organic capping shell TOPO, 75% inorganic ZrO2 nanocores, and can be easily dissolved and be stably disersed in non-polar organic solvents.展开更多

The effect of pH, TOPO concentration, medium, stirring time and the amount of sails added on the distribution of lanthanides between two phases were investigated. Two different compositions Ln(H2O)(t-2) (TOPO)(2)(OH)(2)NO3 (Ln=Nd and Sm) and Ln(H2O)(s-1) (TOPO)(2)(OH)(NO3)(2) (Ln=Tb and Yb) were determined by slope analysis method. The equilibrium extraction constant K-ex and pH(1/2) value were calculated and the thermodynamic parameters were obtained from the dependence of K-ex on the temperature.展开更多

Compositions of these complexes are revealed to be Eu2(1-x)Y2x(TPA)(TTA)4- (TPPO)4 or Eu1-xYx(TPA)(TTA)(TPPO)2. Their IR spectra, fluorescent spectra and the thermal and optical stability were studied. The fluorescent excitation spectra of these complexes show more broad excitation bands than those of Eu2(TPA)3(TPPO)4 and Eu(TTA)3(TPPO)2 corresponding to their formations. In addition, both the binuclear complex EuY(TPA)(TTA)4(TPPO)4 and the chain complex Eu0.4Y0.6(TPA)(TTA)(TPPO)2 present higher thermal stability and better optical stability than the mononuclear complex Eu(TTA)3(TPPO)2 does. And their thermal and optical stabilities are preferably interpreted from the binuclear structure together with the chain polynuclear structure of the complexes. The fluorescence enhancement of cofluorescence Y3+ ions to the Eu(Ⅲ) complexes is clear. The optimum content of Y3+ is 0.6 (molar fraction) for the chain complexes Eu1-xYx(TPA)(TTA)- (TPPO)2 and 0.5 for the binuclear complexes Eu2(1-x)Y2x(TPA)(TTA)4(TPPO)4. The formation of polynuclear structure of the complex Eu1-xYx(TPA)(TTA)(TPPO)2 appears to be responsible for the good cofluorescence effect of Y3+ ions.展开更多

We investigated solvent extraction of U(VI) from aqueous solutions into a commonly used ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide([C4mim][NTf2]) using trioctylphosphine oxide(TOPO) as an extractant. The effects of contact time, TOPO concentration, acidity, and nitrate ions on the U(VI) extraction are discussed in detail. The extraction mechanism was proposed based on slope analysis and UV-Vis measurement. The results clearly show that TOPO/[C4mim][NTf2] provides a highly efficient extraction of U(VI) from aqueous solution under near-neutral conditions. When the TOPO concentration was 10 mmol/L, the extraction of 1 mmol/L U(VI) was almost complete(> 97%). Both the extraction efficiency and distribution coefficient were much larger than in conventional organic solvents such as dichloromethane. Slope analysis confirmed that three TOPO molecules in [C4mim][NTf2] bound with one U(VI) ion and one nitrate ion was also involved in the complexation and formed the final extracted species of [UO2(NO3)(TOPO)3]+. Such a complex suggests that extraction occurs by a cation-exchange mode, which was subsequently evidenced by the fact that the concentration of C4mim+ in the aqueous phase increased linearly with the extraction percent of U(VI) recorded by UV-Vis measurement.展开更多

Solvent extraction of lithium ion from aqueous solution using kerosene as solvent was proposed. Lithium ion is effectively extracted by thenoyltrifluoroace- tone-trioctylphosphine oxide (TTA-TOPO) in kerosene within 80 min. Extraction efficiency is severely influenced by stoichiometric parameters. Among the stoichiometric parameters, volume ratio of aqueous (A) to extraction (E) solution is the most influential parameter. After extrac- tion, lithium ion could be easily stripped from the extraction solution by acidic solutions. Stripping efficiency decreases with pH of acidic solutions, and the kind of acid does not affect the stripping efficiency. Extraction efficiency main- tains at more than 93 % even when the extraction solution is recycled three times. 65 % of lithium ion can be extracted from seawater by this solvent extraction process when magnesium ion is precipitated by NHaOH prior to solvent extraction process. Other metallic ions in seawater decrease the extraction efficiency of lithium ion.展开更多
