Effects of thermal oxidation on microwave-absorbing and mechanical properties of SiC_f/SiC composites with PyC interphase

The SiCf/SiC composites containing PyC interphase were prepared by chemical vapor infiltration process. The influences of thermal oxidation on the complex permittivity and microwave absorption properties of Si Cf/Si C composites were investigated in the frequency range of 8.2-12.4 GHz. Both the real and imaginary parts of the complex permittivity decreased after thermal oxidation. The composites after 100 h thermal oxidation showed that reflection loss exceeded-10 d B in the frequency of 9.7-11.9 GHz and the minimum value was-11.4 d B at 11.0 GHz. The flexural strength of composites decreased but fracture behavior was improved obviously after thermal oxidation. These results indicate that the SiCf/SiC composites containing PyC interphase after thermal oxidation possess good microwave absorbing property and fracture behavior.

An Effective Method to Improve the Performance of Fixed Carrier Membrane via Incorporation of C02-selective Adsorptive Silica Nanopartlcles

Fixed carrier membrane exhibits attractive CO2 permeance and selectivity due to its transport mechanism of reaction selectivity （facilitated transport）. However, its performance needs improvement to meet cost targets for CO2 capture. This study attempts to develop membranes with multiple permselective mechanisms in order to enhance CO2 separation performance of fixed carder membrane. In this study, a novel membrane with multiplepermselective mechanisms of solubility selectivity and reaction selectivity was developed by incorporating CO2-selective adsorptive silica nanoparticles in situ into the tertiary amine containing polyamide membrane formed by interfacial polymerization （IP）. Various techniques were employed to characterize the polyamide and polyam-ide-silica composite membranes. The TGA result shows that nanocomposite membranes exhlbit superior-thermal stability than pure polyamide membranes. In addition, gas permeation experiments show that both nanocomposite membranes have larger CO2 permeance than pure polyamide membranes. The enhanced CO2/N2 separation performance for nanocomposite membranes is mainly due to the thin film thickness, and multiple permselective mechanisms of solubility selectivity and reaction selectivity.

Effect of the surface properties of an activated coke on its desulphurization performance

Commercial coke was modified by H2O2 and/or NH3.H2O to obtain an activated coke containing additional oxygen functional groups and/or nitrogen functional groups. The aim of the modification was to enhance the SO2 adsorption capacity of the activated coke. Several techniques, including total nitrogen content measurements, SO2 adsorption, XPS and FTIR analysis, were used to characterize the coke samples. The XPS and FTIR spectra suggest the existence of -CONH2 groups in the H2O2 plus ammonia modified coke. The SO2 adsorption capacity of an activated coke increases slightly with an increase in H2O2 concentration during the modification process. The desulphurization performance of a modified coke is considerably enhanced by increasing the treatment temperature during ammonia modification. The amount of nitrogen in a coke modified by H2O2 plus NH3.H2O is the highest, and the SO2 adsorption capacity of the coke is also the highest (89.9 mg/gC). The NH3.H2O (only) modified sample has lower nitrogen content and lower desulphurization capacity (79.9 mg/gC). H2O modification gives the lowest SO2 adsorption capacity (28.9 mg/gC). The H2O2 pre-treatment is beneficial for the introduction of nitrogen onto the surface of a sample during the following ammonia treatment process.

Hydrogen sorption properties of nanocrystalline Mg_2FeH_6-based complex and catalytic effect of TiO_2

The diversities of hydrogen sorption properties of Mg2FeH6-based complexes with and without TiO2 were investigated. Mg2FeH6-based complexes with and without TiO2 were synthesized respectively by reactive mechanical alloying,and hydrogen sorption properties of the complexes were examined by Sieverts-type apparatus. The results show that the sample without TiO2 releases 4.43 % (mass fraction) hydrogen in 1.5 ks at 653 K under 0.1 MPa H2 pressure and absorbs 90% of the total 4.43 % (mass fraction) hydrogen absorbed in 85 s at 623 K under 4.0 MPa H2 pressure. But for the sample with TiO2 addition under the same condition,it only needs 400 s to release all of the stored hydrogen and 60 s to absorb 90% of the total hydrogen absorbed. The activation energies for desorption process of the samples with and without TiO2 are determined to be 71.2 and 80.3 kJ/(mol.K),respectively. The improvement in hydrogen sorption rate and and reduction in activation energy can be attributed to the addition of TiO2.

Ethylbenzene disproportionation and p-xylene selectivity enhancement in xylene isomerization using high crystallinity desilicated H-ZSM-5

Desilication accompanied with minimum loss of crystallinity effect of a high alumina ZSM-5 zeolite on the isomerization reaction of ethylbenzene/xylene mixtures has been considered.Desilication was assessed through XRF,XRD,FTIR,TEM,nitrogen adsorption/desorption,NH_3-TPD,^(29)Si and^(27)Al MAS NMR analytical techniques.Desilication was accompanied with the creation of super acid sites.There exists a limit(Si/Al molar ratio of9.67)for keeping high crystallinity and obtaining improved catalytic performance.Desilication promotes ethylbenzene conversion by disproportionation and trans-alkylation reactions while the same reactions are limited for the xylene isomers.The p-xylene approach to equilibrium improves by more than 7% at 400℃ and a WHSV of 2 h^(-1)for the optimum sample with respect to the parent zeolite.At the same conditions,the optimum sample exhibits the maximum ethylbenzene conversion of 89%,i.e.more than 40%w.r.t.of the parent zeolite.However,the xylene yield decreases only 3%.

Adsorption of cadmium ions from aqueous solutions by activated carbon with oxygen-containing functional groups

The adsorption of aqueous cadmium ions(Cd(Ⅱ)) have been investigated for modified activated carbon(AC-T)with oxygen-containing functional groups.The oxygen-containing groups of AC-T play an important role in Cd(Ⅱ) ion adsorption onto AC-T.The modified activated carbon is characterized by scanning electron microscopy,Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS).The results of batch experiments indicate that the maximal adsorption could be achieved over the broad pH range of 4.5 to 6.5.Adsorption isotherms and kinetic study suggest that the sorption of Cd(Ⅱ) onto AC-T produces monolayer coverage and that adsorption is controlled by chemical adsorption.And the adsorbent has a good reusability.According to the FT-IR and XPS analyses,electrostatic attraction and cation exchange between Cd(Ⅱ) and oxygen-containing functional groups on AC-T are dominant mechanisms for Cd(Ⅱ) adsorption.

Characterization and adsorption behaviors of a novel synthesized mesoporous silica coated carbon composite

A novel mesoporous silica coated carbon composite(denoted SEG) with hierarchical pore structure has been successfully prepared in an aqueous solution that contains triblock copolymer template, aluminum chloride, siliceous source and expanded graphite. Textural property and morphology of the SEG composite were characterized by the combination of X-ray diffraction, N_2 adsorption–desorption, scanning electron microscopy,transmission electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared measurements. Results show that mesoporous silica is steadily and uniformly grown on the surface of the graphite slices and the thickness of the silica layer can be finely tuned according to the silica/C molar ratio in the initial reaction solution. This newly synthesized SEG composite shows greatly increased adsorption capacity to methylene blue than the pristine expanded graphite in the batch tests. Both Langmuir and Frendlich models were further used to evaluate the adsorption isotherms of methylene blue over expanded graphite and SEG samples with different silica contents. Finally, pseudosecond-order model was used to describe the kinetics of methylene blue over expanded graphite and the silica-carbon composites.

Influence of Water Vapor on Silica Membrane： Adsorption Properties and Percolation Effect

The influence of water vapor on silica membrane with pore size of ,-4A has been investigated in terms of adsorption properties and percolation effect at 50 and 90 ℃. Two methods are employed： spectroscopic ellipsometry for water vapor adsorption and gas permeation of binary mixture of helium and H2O The adsorption behaviors on the silica membrane comply with the first-order Langmuir isotherm. The investigation demonstrates that helium flux through the silica membrane decreases dramatically in presence of H20 molecules. The transport of gas molecules through such small pores is believed not to be continuous any more, whereas it is reasonably assumed that the gas molecules hop from one occupied site to another unoccupied one under the potential gradient. When the coverage of H20 molecules on the silica surface increases, the dramatic decrease of helium flux could be related to percolation effect, where the adsorbed H20 molecules on the silica surface block the hopping of helium molecules.

3D interconnected nanoporous TaN films for photoelectrochemical water splitting: thickness-controlled synthesis and insights into stability

Solar-driven photoelectrochemical(PEC) water splitting is a promising technology for sustainable hydrogen production, which relies on the development of efficient and stable photoanodes for water oxidation reaction. The thickness and microstructure of semiconductor films are generally crucial to their PEC properties. Herein, three-dimensional(3D) interconnected nanoporous Ta3N5 film photoanodes with controlled thickness were successfully fabricated via galvanostatic anodization and NH3 nitridation. The porous Ta3N5 nanoarchitectures(NAs) of 900 nm in thickness showed the highest PEC performance due to the optimal lightharvesting and charge separation. Compared with the holeinduced photocorrosion, the electrochemical oxidation at high anodic potentials resulted in severer performance degradation of Ta3N5. Although the surface oxide layer on deteriorated Ta3N5 photoanodes could be removed by NH3 re-treatment,the PEC performance was only partially recovered. As an alternative, anchoring a dual-layer Co(OH)x/Co OOH co-catalyst shell on the porous Ta3N5 NAs demonstrated substantially enhanced PEC performance and stability. Overall, this work provides reference to controllably fabricate 3D nanoporous Ta3N5-based photoanodes for efficient and stable PEC water splitting via optimizing the light absorption, hole extraction,charge separation and utilization.

Low velocity impact response and energy absorption behavior on glass fibre reinforced epoxy composites

A study was undertaken to determine the effects of several key geometry influencing factors on the impact response and energy absorption behavior of the glass fibre reinforced epoxy composites at low and intermediate energies.The energy-balance model was employed for characterising the energy absorption behavior and it depends strongly on the plate diameter and thickness.In addition,the damage vs.energy and force maps is effective in monitoring damage growth within the composite panel.The response of the composite laminate configurations characterized by different stacking sequences subjected to low velocity impacts with different impact energies have also been studied to estimate the damage initiation of composites.

Improved performance and prolonged lifetime of titania-based materials: sequential use as adsorbent and photocatalyst

Lifetime is a key index in the evaluation of environmentally functional materials. Although it is well known that adsorption is the first step in photocatalysis, very little work has been done on the sequential use of materials as both adsorbents and photo- catalysts. In this work, two titania-based materials, TiO2 xerogel and TiO2 photocatalyst nanoparticles, were fabricated and evaluated as adsorbent and photocatalyst for the remediation of contaminated water with an azo dye, Acid Orange 7 （AO7）, as the modeling pollutant. The TiO2 xerogel showed a high adsorption capacity to AO7 （769 mg/g） and could be regenerated eas- ily with diluted NaOH solution （0.01 mol/L） for several cycles. The exhausted xerogel was calcined at 400 ℃ for 3 h and used as a photocatalyst for the degradation of AO7. Compared to the nanoparticles directly prepared from fresh TiO2 xerogel, the TiO2 nanoparticles from adsorption exhausted xerogel showed a much higher photocatalytic activity upon both UV and visible light irradiation. Thus the titania-based materials were endowed with improved performance as well as prolonged lifetime.
