The products were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), laser particle size analyzer and X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). The results indicate that the type, dosage and relative molecular mass of surfactants significantly impact the purity, dispersion property, particle size, size distribution and morphology of the products. The nonionic surfactants poly ethylene glycol (PEG) and polyethylene glycol sorbitan monostearate (Tween) showed better dispersing ability in the reaction system than the others. The optimal mass ratios of surfactant to Ni are 100 mg/g and 150 mg/g for PEG-600 and Tween-40, respectively. The products obtained in the optimal conditions have ideal morphology and narrow size distribution. Moreover, study on the relative molecular mass effect revealed that with the increase of the relative molecular mass of Tween, the morphology of nickel powders changed from sphere to spiny ball.展开更多

High angle annular dark‐field‐scanning transmission electron mi‐croscopy(HAADF‐STEM) measurement results show that most of the Ir species on Ir‐La‐S/AC exist as single atomic sites, while those on Ir‐La/AC exist as nanoparticles with an average diameter of 1.5 nm. Evaluation of Ir‐La‐S/AC as a catalyst for heterogeneous carbonylation of methanol to acetyl gave a maximum TOF (turn‐over‐frequency) of 2760 h^–1, which was distinctly higher than that achieved by the Ir‐La/AC catalyst(approximately 1000 h^-1). Temperature‐programmed desorption of ammonia(NH3‐TPD) result shows that the addition of sulfuric acid during the preparation pro‐cedure results in significantly more acidic sites on Ir‐La‐S/AC than those on Ir‐La/AC, which plays a key role in the enhancement of CO insertion as the rate‐determining step. Tempera‐ture‐programmed reduction(TPR) and in situ X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy reveal that Ir spe‐cies are more reducible, and that more Ir^+ might be formed by activation of Ir‐La‐S/AC than those on the Ir‐La/AC catalyst, which is thought to be beneficial for reductive elimination of AcI from Ir^3+ species as an essential step for CH3I regeneration and acetyl formation.展开更多

The effects of different system variables: pH, agitation speed, temperature and initial dye concentration were studied in the batch tests. The adsorption capacity of activated carbon for the dyes removal was found to be affected by the solution's pH. Acidic pH was found the favour disperse dyes removal. Over 95% removal was achieved for both the dyes at pH 3. The equilibrium time for both dyes was 30 min. Both Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms could be used to describe the adsorption of the dyes. Freundlich adsorption model succeeded in fitting the adsorption isotherms of dyes on olive stones activated carbon in single-solute systems, and prediction of the competitive adsorption behavior of dyes with the Freundlich-based Sheindorf-Rebuhn-Sheintuch (SRS) model gave acceptable results.展开更多

That is to say, the space variable is discretized with the symmetric interior penalty Calerkin method (SIPG), and the time variable is done with the backward Euler method. Making use of the duality technique, hp approximation properties and the interpolation theory, a residual-type a posteriori error estimation is achieved, which can be used for adaptivity. Compared with the analyses of semi-discretization, the current presentation is more challenging and more significant.展开更多

These metallic nano-particles were found to be separately stored, so their optical, catalytic, and antibacterial properties were retained both in the composite gel and a composite membrane. The composite gels were stable under hard external conditions. Based on this, a sensor for the detection of Hg2+ was developed using the Au nanoparticle/agar composite gel. Antibacterial materials were achieved using the Ag nanoparticle/agar composite gel and composite membrane. These two Ag nanoparticle-based materials showed good antibacterial activity against Gram-negative Escherichia coli and Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus.展开更多

文摘Fine face-centered cubic (FCC) nickel powders were synthesized by liquid phase reduction with different surfactants. The products were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), laser particle size analyzer and X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). The results indicate that the type, dosage and relative molecular mass of surfactants significantly impact the purity, dispersion property, particle size, size distribution and morphology of the products. The nonionic surfactants poly ethylene glycol (PEG) and polyethylene glycol sorbitan monostearate (Tween) showed better dispersing ability in the reaction system than the others. The optimal mass ratios of surfactant to Ni are 100 mg/g and 150 mg/g for PEG-600 and Tween-40, respectively. The products obtained in the optimal conditions have ideal morphology and narrow size distribution. Moreover, study on the relative molecular mass effect revealed that with the increase of the relative molecular mass of Tween, the morphology of nickel powders changed from sphere to spiny ball.

文摘Composite materials were synthesized by encapsulating Au and Ag nanoparticles in an agar gel matrix. These metallic nano-particles were found to be separately stored, so their optical, catalytic, and antibacterial properties were retained both in the composite gel and a composite membrane. The composite gels were stable under hard external conditions. Based on this, a sensor for the detection of Hg2+ was developed using the Au nanoparticle/agar composite gel. Antibacterial materials were achieved using the Ag nanoparticle/agar composite gel and composite membrane. These two Ag nanoparticle-based materials showed good antibacterial activity against Gram-negative Escherichia coli and Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus.
