Flower-like 3D CuO microsphere acting as photocatalytic water oxidation catalyst

Flower-like 3D CuO microspheres were synthesized and used to photo-catalyze water oxidation under visible light.The structure of the CuO microspheres was characterized by scanning electron microscopy,transmission electron microscopy,infrared,powder X-ray diffraction,electron dispersive spectroscopy,Raman and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy（XPS）.This is the first time that a copper oxide was demonstrated as a photocatalytic water oxidation catalyst under near neutral conditions.The catalytic activity of CuO microspheres in borate buffer shows the best performance with O2 yield of 11.5%.No change in the surface properties of CuO before and after the photocatalytic reaction was seen by XPS,which showed good catalyst stability.A photocatalytic water oxidation reaction mechanism catalyzed by the CuO microspheres was proposed.

Thermostability,mechanical and tribological behaviors of polyimide matrix composites interpenetrated with foamed copper

Polyimide matrix composites interpenetrated with foamed copper were prepared via pressure impregnation and vacuum immersion to focus on their thermostability, mechanical and tribological behaviors as sliding electrical contact materials. The results show that the interpenetrating phase composites（IPC） are very heat-resistant and exhibit higher hardness as well as bending strength, when compared with homologous polyimide matrix composites without foamed copper. Sliding electrical contact property of the materials is also remarkably improved, from the point of contact voltage drops. Moreover, it is believed that fatigue wear is the main mechanism involved, along with slight abrasive wear and oxidation wear. The better abrasive resistance of the IPC under different testing conditions was detected, which was mainly attributed to the successful hybrid of foamed copper and polyimide.

Stabilizing CuO photocathode with a Cu_(3)N protection shell

CuO,as a promising photocathode material,suffers from severe photocorrosion in photoelectrochemical water splitting applications.Herein,a Cu_(3)N protection shell was used to protect the CuO photocathode for the first time to effectively suppress the photocorrosion of CuO.Consequently,the Cu_(3)N‐protected CuO photocathode shows improved stability,retaining 80% of its initial current density in a 20‐min test,while only 10%of the initial current density can be retained for the bare photocathode.This work may provide an important strategy for using Cu_(3)N shells to stabilize unstable photocathodes.

Stability and nonlinear dynamic behavior of drilling shaft system in copper stave deep hole drilling

The stability and nonlinear dynamic behavior of drilling shaft system in copper stave deep hole drilling were analyzed. The effects of the fluctuation of the cutting force, the mass eccentricity and the hydrodynamic forces of cutting fluid could be taken into consideration in the model of drilling shaft system. Based on the isoparametric finite element method, the variational form of Reynolds equation in hydrodynamic fluid was used to calculate nonlinear hydrodynamic forces and their Jacobian matrices simultaneously. In the stability analysis, a new shooting method for rapidly determining the periodic orbit of the nonlinear drilling shaft system and its period was presented by rebuilding the traditional shooting method and changing the time scale. Through the combination of theories with experiment, the correctness and effectiveness of the above methods are verified by using the Floquet theory. The results show that the mass eccentricity can inhibit the whirling motion of drilling shaft to some extent.

Preparation and Characterization of Macroporous Resin Immobilized Pd－Cu Bimetallic Cluster Catalysts

The Solvated Metal Atom Impregnation (SMAI) technique was employed to prepare macroporous resin immobilized Pd--Cu bimetallic cluster catalysts. The X--ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron micrograph (TEM) showed that Pd--Cu alloy was formed and the particle sizes of Pd--Cu clusters were very small, with average diameters <3nm. X--ray photoelectron spectroscopy indicated that both Pd and Cu were in zero--valent state. The catalytic activities of the macroporous resin immobilized Pd--Cu catalysts in hydrogenation of 4--methyl--3--penten--2--one were much greater than that of the carbon supported Pd--Cu catalysts.

Synergistic effects of CuO and Au nanodomains on Cu_2O cubes for improving photocatalytic activity and stability

Cu2O is a promising photocatalyst,but it suffers from poor photocatalytic activity and stability,especially for Cu2O cubes.Herein,we report the deposition of CuO and Au nanodomains on Cu2O cubes to form dual surface heterostructures(HCs)to improve photocatalytic activity and stability.The apparent quantum efficiency of Au/CuO/Cu2O HCs was ca.123 times that of pristine Cu2O.In addition,the Au/CuO/Cu2O HCs maintained nearly 80%of its original activity after eight cycles in contrast to five cycles for the Au/Cu2O material.Therefore,CuO and Au domains greatly improved the photocatalytic activity and stability of the Cu2O cubes due to the synergistic effect of the HCs.

Changes in Soil Solution Cu and Zn Following Application of Alkaline Stab ilisedSewageSludgeand GammaIrradiation *1

A glasshouse pot experiment was conducted to study changes in the solubility of copper and zinc in the soil plant system following heavy application of sewage sludge and partial sterilisation of the sludge/soil mixture. A slightly acid sandy loam was mixed with alkaline stabilised and composted urban sewage sludge solids (`Agri Soil', 180 t hm -2 ), and the soil/sludge mixture was γ irradiated (10 kGy). The contrasts without the application of sewage sludge and γ irradiation were also included in the experiment. Perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne cv. Magella) was grown on irradiated and unirradiated soils for 50 days. Soil solution samples were obtained using soil suction samplers immediately before plant transplantation and every ten days thereafter. The soil solution samples were used directly for determination of Cu and Zn, together with pH, electrical conductivity (EC) and absorbance at wavelength 360 nm (A 360 ). Application of Agri Soil led to a substantial increase in dissolved Cu and a significant decrease in dissolved Zn in the soil solution and these effects were accompanied by increased soil solution pH, EC and A 360 . The alkaline sludge product (Agri Soil) in combination with γ irradiation also led to a pronounced elevation of Cu and A 360 but a marked decline in EC, indicating an increase in dissolved organic compounds and a decrease in the ionic strength of the soil solution. The dissolved Cu and Zn, EC and A 360 usually decreased while the pH increased after plant growth for 50 days.

Effect of direct electric current on wetting behavior of molten Bi on Cu substrate

The effect of direct electric current on the wetting behavior of molten Bi on Cu substrate at 370℃ was investigated by the sessile drop method. The wettability of molten Bi on Cu without an applied current is poor and the spreading time required to form the steady-state contact angle （about 102°） is approximately 30 min. With the increase of the applied electric current, the spreading of molten Bi on Cu is accelerated significantly and the steady-state contact angle decreases considerably. The cross-section SEM micrographs of the solidified Bi droplet on Cu substrate show that the electric current has a marked effect on the convection of melt. Correspondingly, the application of an electric current obviously enhances the dissolution of Cu into Bi melt, which may change the wetting triple line configuration. The improvement of wettability induced by electric current is also related to the additional driving force for wetting provided by the electromagnetic pressure gradient force.

Slope stability analysis of Southern slope of Chengmenshan copper mine,China

The engineering geology and hydrogeology in the southern slope of Chengmenshan copper mine are very complicated,because there is a soft-weak layer between two kinds of sandstones.Field investigations demonstrate that some instability problems might occur in the slope.In this research,the southern slope,which is divided into six sections(I-0,I-1,I-2,II-0,II-1 and II-2),is selected for slope stability analysis using limit equilibrium and numerical method.Stability results show that the values of factor of safety(FOS) of sections I-0,I-1 and I-2 are very low and slope failure is likely to happen.Therefore reinforcement subjected to seismic,water and weak layer according to sections were carried out to increase the factor of safety of the three sections,two methods were used;grouting with hydration of cement and water to increase the cohesion(c) and pre-stressed anchor.Results of reinforcement showed that factor of safety increased more than 1.15.

Real-solution stability diagrams for copper-ammonia-chloride-water system

A comprehensive thermodynamic model, which combined the Helgeson Kirkham-Flowers （HKF） equation of state for standard-state thermodynamic properties of all species with realistic activity coefficient model developed by BROMLEY, was used to calculate the thermodynamic equilibrium, and a graphical method was developed to construct predominance existence diagrams （PED） for copper-ammonia-chloride in the presence of realistically modeled aqueous solutions. The existence of the different predominant chemical species for Cu（lI） predicted by the diagrams was corroborated by spectrophotometrical studies and X-ray diffractometry. The simulated and experimental results indicate that the predominance of a given species in solution strongly depends on the pH value in this system. More quantitative information on real copper hydrometallurgy in the presence of ammonia and chloride can be obtained from these diagrams compared with the conventional predominance existence diagrams.

Method of Calculation of Stability Constants of Fulvic Complexes on the Example of Copper

On the example of copper fulvate, it is discussed the method of calculation of stability constants of fulvic complexes. At pH = 8, the complex formation of copper（ll） ions with fulvic acids was studied by the solubility method. Fulvic acids were separated from the river Mtkvari by the adsorption-chromotographic method. The charcoal （BAU, Russia） was used as a sorbent. The suspension of copper（If） hydroxide was used as the solid phase, on which was added the increasing quantity of standard solution of fulvic acids. In diluted solutions, at pH = 8 the dominant form of copper（lI） is copper dihydroxo complex Cu（OH）^zO. It was established that in the Cu（OH）2 （solid）-Cu（OH）^20 （solution）-FA^2-H20 system, dominates copper dyhydroxo fulvate complex with the structure 1：1, [Cu（OH）2FA]^2. The average stability constant of copper dyhydroxo fulvate complex was calculated based on experimental data fl [Cu（OH）2FAJ^2 = 4.5× l0^5.

Enhanced thermal stability and mechanical properties of high-temperature resistant Al-Cu alloy with Zr and Mn micro-alloying

The high temperature(HT)thermal stability and mechanical properties of Al-5%Cu(AC)and Al-5%Cu-0.2%Mn-0.2 Zr%(ACMZ)alloys from 573 to 673 K were systematically studied.The results displayed that micro-alloying additions of Zr and Mn elements have presented a significant role in stabilizing the main strengthening metastableθ′precipitates at a temperature as high as 573 K.Simultaneously,the HT tensile test demonstrated that ACMZ alloy retained their strength of(88.6±8.8)MPa,which was much higher than that of AC alloy((32.5±0.8)MPa)after the thermal exposure at 573 K for 200 h.Finally,the underlying mechanisms of strength and ductility enhancement mechanism of the ACMZ alloy at HT were discussed in detail.

Li_(x)Cu alloy nanowires nested in Ni foam for highly stable Li metal composite anode

Porous metal architectures are widely adopted as three-dimensional conducting scaffolds for constructing Li metal composite anodes,whereas their macropores hinder their practical application due to limited surface area and large pore size of few hundred micrometers.In this work,a network of Li_(x)Cu solid solution alloy nanowires is in situ formed via infiltrating molten Li-Cu alloy into Ni foam and subsequent cooling treatment,whereby a three-component composite anode consisting of Li metal,Li_(x)Cu alloy,and Ni foam is fabricated.The Li_(x)Cu nanowires nested as secondary frame split the macropores into micropores,enlarging the active surface area and inducing uniform Li deposition significantly.The lithiophilicity of the alloy wires and the shrunken void size built by the hierarchical architecture can further tune the nucleation and growth behavior of Li.The multiscale synergetic effect between the primary and secondary scaffold guarantees the composite anode sheet with extraordinarily long-term cycling stability even under high current rates.
