In this paper, the adsorption property of the MDFF agent, MD-1, on quartz sand has been studied through adsorption experiments at different pH and temperatures. Experimental data are also analyzed kinetically and thermodynamically. The results show that the adsorption of MD-1 on quartz sand takes place mainly because of electrostatic interactions, which corresponds to adsorption that increases with pH. Kinetic analyses show that at a higher pH the activation energy for adsorption gets lower and, therefore, the adsorption becomes quicker for MD-1 on quartz sand. Thermodynamic analyses show that pH plays an important role in the adsorption of MD-1 on quartz sand. At a higher pH, more negative surface charges result in the increase of electrostatic interactions between MD-1 and quartz sand. Therefore, the saturated adsorption amount increases and more adsorption heat will be released.展开更多

The first is its nanotribological property investigated by an atomic force microscope, which indicates that the deposition of the MD film could reduce the frictional force. The second is its nanoindent property studied by a nano-indenter. The results show that, after the MD film is deposited on the Au substrate , the elastic modulus, hardness and load decreased all, moreover, the elastic deformation increased and the plastic deformation decreased, which indicates that the MD film can improve the nanomechanical properties of the Au substrate.展开更多

Through analyzing the 20th phthalocyanine MD film AFM image, we know that the surface of MD film is flat and compact. The physical-chemical properties of molecular end-group have influence on the MD films surface character notably. The contact angles of water on the odd and even layer MD films vary greatly complying with "odd-even" regularity, and the value increases slightly with the increment of MD film layers due to the decrease of van der Waals force reinforced by substrate through MD films.展开更多
