The yield, particle size and size distribution of these nanoparticles wereevaluated. The yield of nanoparticles prepared by this method is over 90%, and the average size of the nanoparticlesis between 130-180 nm. In order to clarify the effect of the organic solvent used in the system on nanoparticle yieldand size, the cloud points of PLA and PLGA were examined by cloud point titration. The results indicate that theyields of nanoparticles increase with the increase of ethanol in the acetone solution and attain the maximum at thecloud point of ethanol, while the size of nanoparticles decreases with the increase of ethanol in the acetone solutionand attains the minimum at the cloud point of ethanol. The optimal composition ratio of binary organic solvents coin-cides to that near the cloud point and the optimal condition of binary organic solvents can be predicted.展开更多

The as-prepared catalysts were characterized by N_2 adsorption-desorption, X-ray diffraction（XRD）, CO-chemisorption, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy（XPS） and hydrogen temperature-programmed reduction（H_2-TPR）. The preformed Pt nanoparticles generated using ethanol as a reducing agent on M-DS presented enhanced Pt dispersion regardless of aging treatment as confirmed by XRD and CO-chemisorption measurements. The textural properties and reduction ability of M-DS were maintained to a large extent after aging treatment. This result was consistent with those of the N_2 adsorption-desorption and H_2-TPR, respectively. Meanwhile, the XPS analysis demonstrated that higher Pt^0 species and larger Ce^（3＋） concentration could be obtained for M-DS. In the conversion of a simulated compressed natural gas（CNG） vehicle exhaust, both fresh and aged M-DS showed a significant enhancement in the activity and N_2-selectivity. Particularly, the complete conversion temperature（T_（90）） of CH_4 over the aged M-DS catalyst was 65 oC lower than that over the aged catalyst by conventional double-solvent method.展开更多

The Al2O3-ZrO2 powders (1:1 molar ratio) were prepared using aluminum tri-sec-butoxide and zirconium n-propoxide as precursors. Ethanol (EtOH), isopropanol (iPrOH) and isobutanol (iBuOH) were used as solvents.

Prepared oxides calcined at 700℃ showed high specific surface area (200 - 240 m2/g). Obtained results suggest that the homogeneity of the mixed oxides is favored by using a water addition rate of 0.06 and 0.10 mL/min with ethanol as solvent.展开更多

The optimum prepared condition was that the rice husk with 70%-90% aqueous solution of 1, 4-butanediol was mixed with autoclave, under a certain weight ratio of solid raw material and solvent, heated to 200-220℃ for 1.0-3.0 h, then water-insoluble RHL was separated from the liquor reaction mixture by water precipitation. Results suggested that the lower digestion temperature and concentration of 1,4-butanediol were both unfavorable for extracting lignin. Chemical weight-average molecular weight of RHL was 1939 g·mol^-1, and the residual polysaccharide content was 5.12%. The ^1H-NMR spectra of RHL showed the relative intensity ratio, aliphatic over aromatic methoxyl groups, situated at 3.5-3.8 and 3.8-4.0 ppm, respectively. The results from ^13C-NMR spectra showed that β-O-4 bond and β-5 carbon-carbon linkage were the major linkages between RHL units. The C9-formula of RHL was calculated by the experiment data.展开更多

The binding energies of Fe2+ and Fe3+ in high-spin state are higher than intermediate and low-spin states which show that the complex formation in a high spin state is more favorable. The calculated binding energies at different solvents indicate that the binding energies in polar solvents are lower than non-polar solvents. Furthermore, spectroscopic studies including FTIR and Raman spectrum in various solvents reveal that the formation of intermolecular bonds between the oxygen atom of carbonyl group and the hydrogen atom of solvent causes a spectral red shift. The calculated FTIR and geometry parameters are in good agreement with previous experimental data. Donor-acceptor interaction energies are evaluated due to the importance of the charge transfer in the complex formation. It is observed that the free electrons of oxygen atom interact with the antibonding orbitals of the iron. Finally, some correlations between the quantum chemical reactivity indices of the complexes and solvent polarity are considered. The study indicates a linear correlation between chemical hardness and binding energies of [Fe(cat)3]3﹣?complex.展开更多

The synthetic conditions were systematically investigated by orthogonal experiments, which indicate that the optimal reaction time, reaction temperature, molar ratio of Li to DES and rotate speed are 96 h, 220 ℃, 1:14 and20 r·min^(-1), respectively. X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscope(SEM) and transmission electron microscope(TEM) were characterized to investigate the crystalline structure and morphology of the obtained materials, indicating well-crystallized LiFePO_(4) with olivine structure. And the physical properties of LiFePO_(4) were explored through Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR),57 Fe Mo¨ ssbauer absorption spectra and Raman spectra. An initial discharge capacity can reach 151 m Ah·g^(-1) at 0.1 C rate for LiFePO_(4) following by calcining at 600 ℃ under the optimal conditions, and it retains 125.1 m Ah·g^(-1) after 100 cycles.

文摘In this work,a novel in situ auto-reduction strategy was developed to encapsulate uniformly dispersed Pd clusters/nanoparticles in MIL-125-NH_(2).It is demonstrated that the amino groups in MIL-125-NH_(2)can react with formaldehyde to form novel reducing groups(-NH-CH_(2)OH),which can in situ auto-reduce the encapsulated Pd^(2+)ions to metallic Pd clusters/nanoparticles.As no additional reductants are required,the strategy limits the aggregation and migration of Pd clusters and the formation of large Pd nanoparticles via controlling the amount of Pd^(2+)precursor.When applied as catalysts in the hydrogenation of phenol in the aqueous phase,the obtained Pd(1.5)/MIL-125-NH-CH_(2)OH catalyst with highly dispersed Pd clusters/nanoparticles with the size of around 2 nm exhibited 100%of phenol conversion and 100%of cyclohexanone selectivity at 70℃ after 5 h,as well as remarkable reusability for at least five cycles due to the large MOF surface area,the highly dispersed Pd clusters/nanoparticles and their excellent stability within the MIL-125-NH-CH_(2)OH framework.
文摘Eu3+ is extracted at pH 6 with 5. 0×10-2 mol/L benzo-15-crown-5 in dichloromethane from 5. 0×10-2 mol/L aqueous solution of lithium picrate. The enriched extractability has been investigated. In a concentration range from 2. 4 ×10-4 to 1. 8 ×10-3 mol/L solution of europium nitrates, the enrichment coefficients are calculated with the phasc ratio (organic/aqueous) of 1: 5 or 4: 25. The ability of 0. 5 mol/L HNO3 as a back-extractant is discussed with the volume ratio [organic/(0. 5 mol/L HNO3)] of 1 : 3. Crown ether and picric acid exist in the back-extractivephase. Eu3+ is effectively separated from the organic phase by the electrochemical method. The separation efficiency is more than 84%. The optimum electrolysis time or cell voltage is obtained from the relation between the electrolysis current and the time or the voltage.
文摘Daqing FCC slurry was treated using mixed solvent containing N,N-dimethylformamide(extraction solvent)and n-paraffin(stripping-agent).The influence of solvent formulation(ratio of DMF/stripping-agent),temperature,time and solvent-oil ratio on yield and aromatics content of the extract oil were analyzed by a four-factor and three-level orthogonal experimental design.The polynomial regression models between the extract oil yield and aromatics content with the four factors were established.Response surface analysis showed that solvent formulation,temperature and solvent-oil ratio have significant effects on extraction result and there is an interaction between temperature and solvent-oil ratio on aromatics content,when the FCC slurry is extracted by mixed solvent.However,the extraction time has no significant effect.The optimal conditions for FCC slurry extraction covered:a solvent mixed ratio of 2.3,a temperature of 62.8℃,a solvent-oil ratio of 3.2,and a time of 35 min.The result of verification experiment was in good agreement with the prediction of the model.

文摘Orthorhombic AgInS2 nanoplate and nanoparticle were synthesized using pyridine and 1-dodecanethiol as the solvent.The obtained products were characterized by X-ray diffraction（XRD）,field-emission scanning electron microscope（FESEM）,field-emission transmission electron microscope（FETEM）,and the possible growth mechanism of AgInS2 was also proposed by the exploration of reaction temperature and time.Meanwhile,the bandgap of AgInS2 was calculated by the UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectrum,and the photocatalytic activity was also investigated.Those experimental results indicate that the reaction temperature,reaction time and solvent have an influence on phase and morphology of AgInS2,and both AgInS2 nanoplate and nanoparticle have some ability on photocatalytic degradation of organic dyes under UV-Vis light irradiation.

文摘Novel cobalt Fischer-Tropsch synthesis （FTS） catalysts were prepared from natural halloysite nanotubes （HNT） by double-solvent and wet- impregnation methods, and characterized by TEM, XRD, TPR and N2 adsorption-desorption. Comparing with the catalyst prepared by wet- impregnation method, the catalyst prepared by double-solvent method reduces Co3O4 particle migration and agglomeration due to size-induced effect, thus showing higher catalytic activity for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis.
