A series of NMF LDHs were prepared by the above method, and then were calcined to obtain the Ni Mg FeOx(NMFOx) samples. The NMFOxsamples were characterized by XRD,SEM, TG-DTG, XPS and CO2-TPD, respectively. The catalytic performance of NMFOxfor depolymerizing calcium lignosulfonate(CLS) was evaluated by hydrothermal reaction. The results showed that the addition of hydroxyl compounds favored reducing the particle sizes of NMF LDHs. For the depolymerization of CSL, the yield of liquid product increased from 45% to 75.8% with the addition of NMFOx-ethanol(NMFOxET). The liquid products were mainly phenolics, aromatics, ketones and esters. The total selectivity of oxy-containing compounds was over 90.6%, among them, the phenolics were approximately 35.2%. The valence of Ni and Fe, crystalline phase and basicity almost remained unchanged. The NMFOx-ET samples were recycled for the depolymerization of CLS, moreover, the NMFOx-ET samples had high activity and stability after 4 cycles.展开更多

ZnAlLa-HTLcs were synthesized by a method of variable pH with the raw materials ofZn(NO_3)_2, Al(NO_3)_3, La(NO_3)_3, and NaOH. The eS'ccts of some factors (i.e. pH values, the moleratio of Al^(3+) to La^(3+), temperature and the period of hydrothermal treatment) on thepreparation of HTLcs were discussed systematically. XRD, TG-DTA, FT-IR spectroscopy, and ICP wereperformed to characterize ZnAlLa-HTLcs samples, and the thermal stability of HTLcs was alsodiscussed. It was shown that unique ZnAlLa-HTLcs with high crystallinity can be prepared, under theconditions of pH = 5.5-6.5, n(Zn^(2+))/n(Al^(3+) + La^(3+))=2 and the atomic ratio of La^(3+) toAl^(3+) ranging from 0.07 to 2, hydrothermal treatment at 120 ℃ for 5 h. When the calcination ofthe HTLcs is performed at temperatures above 200 ℃, ZnO phase is detected with Al_2O_3 and La_2O_3spreading on its top. The complex metal oxides derived from ZnAlLa-HTLcs at 500 ℃ have highercatalytic activity and selectivity than those from ZnAl-HTLcs for the esterification of acetic acidwith n-butanol under the same reaction conditions.展开更多

The effect of each factor on the preparation of HTLcs was discussed systematically, which included pH values, mole ratios of Mg2+ to Co2+, the concentrations of the solution, and the temperature and time of the hydrothermal treatment. Besides, the thermal decomposition of MgCoAI-HTLcs was discussed. X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, and FT-IR spectroscopy were performed to characterize the MgCoAI-HTLcs samples. The results showed that when the pH = 7.6-8.5 or 5.5-6.2, atomic ratios of (Mg^2++Co2+)/Al^3+ 2 and Mg^2+/Co^2+ ranging from 1.00 to 2.00, temperature and time of hydrothermal treatment being 110℃ and 6 h, unique MgCoAI-HTLcs with high crystallinity could be obtained. When the calcination temperature was up to 250℃, the MgO phase was detected coexisting with Al2O3 and MgAl2O4 was highly spreaded on the derived mixed oxides. The synthesis reaction of benzoin methyl ether with methanol and benzaldehyde was chosen to study the catalytic activity of MgCoAI-HTLcs. The catalyst showed high activity and high stability in the synthesis of benzoin methyl ether in the feasible condition.展开更多

The structure and the surface morphology of the as-prepared samples were characterized by FT–IR, XRD, N2 adsorption-desorption and SEM. These as-prepared X-LDOs could act as sulfur-transfer catalysts for desulfurization. The activity of SOx adsorption and regeneration was evaluated via a self-assembled fixed-bed reactor simulating the conditions found in the fluid catalytic cracking units. These four types of sulfur-transfer catalysts with the same phase but different structure displayed the following order of desulfurization efficiency: CO3-LDO >Cl-LDO >NO3-LDO > SO4-LDO.展开更多

It was found that the Mg-AI HTlc showed a good sorption ability for Cu(Ⅱ) from CuSO4 solution, indicating that the use of hydrotalcite-like compounds as promising inorganic sorbents for the removal of heavy metal ions from water is possible. The sorption kinetics and the sorption isotherm of Cu(Ⅱ) on the HTlc obeyed the pseudo-second order kinetic model and Langmuir equation, respectively. The percent removal of Cu(Ⅱ) by the HT1c was strongly dependent on the initial pH of bulk solution. It increased sharply with the increase of initial pH value in the range of 5-7, and was relatively small in the initial pH range of 4-5, while it reached about 100% after initial pH was higher than 7. The presence of AlCl3 might obviously lower the equilibrium sorption amount (qc) of Cu(Ⅱ) on the HTlc. However, the presences of NaCI and MgCl2 might increase the qe. The presences of ligands (citric acid and EDTA) in the studied concentration range might obviously decrease the qe of Cu(Ⅱ) on the HT1c. The removal mechanism of Cu(Ⅱ) cations by HTlc in the presence of SO4^2- anions may be attributed to the surface-induced precipitation of Cu(Ⅱ) hydroxides and the surface complex adsorption by the linking effect of SO4^2- between the HTlc and Cu(Ⅱ) cations, and the removal ability arising from the surface-induced precipitation is much higher than that from the linking effect of SO4^2-.展开更多

The first step was a novel hydrotalcite-like compound (HTLC) synthesized by a co-precipitating method, under standard ambient temperature and pressure, using chemical industry wastewater rich in divalent and trivalent cations, activated by a thermal treatment and finally characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (EDS) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The second step was a series of batch sorption tests performed with this activated HTLC and untreated underground sulfurous water from the state of Puebla, México. The HTLC calcined at 500°C/3 h exhibited the best sorption ability for ions, demonstrated a decrease of the hardness and sulfate ions to below the regional legal standards for drinking water. Once inactive after being used in water treatment, the sorbed ions were removed by ion exchange in a carbonate-containing solution, resulting in an 80% recycling of the material which upon activation demonstrated a retained capacity for water treatment. This recyclability suggests the exciting possibility of this novel compound as an efficient “green” technology in water treatment processes.展开更多

In the sample, the content of aluminum(III) in the layers was decreased to a proper value. The Al3+ ions coordinated with 8-hydroxyquinolines (8-HQ) which were dispersed into the anions in the interlayer region. The sample was characterized by XRD, XPS, FT-IR, TG-DSC, UV-Vis, and fluorescence spec- troscopy; its composition and structure were also determined. The results indicate that the sample can emit fluorescence (487 nm) with a strong fluorescence intensity (4.9×105 (a.u.)). The fluorescent lifetime and fluorescence quantum yield of Al-HTLc were measured to be 21.24 ns and 67%, respectively, higher than those of pure 8-hydroxyquinoline aluminum (Alq3). The result of TG-DSC measurement clearly shows the enhanced thermal stability of Al-HTLc compared with that of MgAl-LDH and pure Alq3.
