The carbonized leaf powder is expected as suitable adsorbent for Ni(II) removal became of the composition of some beneficial groups. In this work, carbonized leaf powder was evaluated for its adsorption performance towards Ni(II). According to the results, adsorbent component, dosage, initial solute concentration, solution pH, temperature and contact time can significantly affect the efficiency of Ni(II) removal. Sips model fits the test results best, and the adsorption capacity towards Ni(II) is determined around 37.62 mg/g. The thermodynamic behaviors reveal the endothermic and spontaneous nature of the adsorption. The free adsorption energy (fluctuate around 8 kJ/mol) predicted by D-R model indicates that the adsorption capacity originated from both physical and chemical adsorption. Room temperature (15-25 ℃) is suitable for Ni(II) removal as well as low energy consumption for temperature enhancement. Further conclusions about the mechanism of chemical adsorption are obtained through analysis of the FT-IR test and XRD spectra, which indicates that the adsorption process occurs predominantly between amine, carbonate, phosphate and nickel ions.展开更多

In this regard, the significant reduction of EMI reflection of CPCs to alleviate secondary pollution is deemed to be very important. Herein, a promising cyanate ester(CE) based composite was successfully fabricated by compounding carbonized spent coffee grounds(C-SCG) and graphene nanosheets(GNSs) via a facile solution blending followed by a hot-pressing method. Benefiting from the porous structure of C-SCG and the layered structure of GNSs, a three-dimensional(3 D)multi-interface conductive network in the CE was easily constructed. The EMI SE of the resultant 9 wt%C-SCG/CE composite(C9) is 15.38 d B and dramatically enhanced to 31.09 d B with the presence of 3 wt% GNSs. The remarkable enhancement is mainly attributed to the formation of the efficient conductive pathways as well as the well-dispersion of the incorporated fillers. Meanwhile, the absorption-dominated shielding mechanism in the prepared composites gets benefit from the synergistic effect of porous C-SCG and lamellar GNSs, which effectively captures and attenuates electromagnetic waves. These encouraging findings extend the practical applications of porous biocarbon materials in EMI shielding field.展开更多

In sharp contrast, two kinds of CPDs prepared via a hydrothermal process from citric acid(CA) and diethylenetriamine(DETA) exhibit obvious excitation-wavelength dependent emissions. Through the characterization and comparison of the two types of CPDs, it is concretely revealed that the polymer structure types during the formation of CPDs can effectively control the fluorescence excitation-wavelength independence/dependence. The homogeneous polymer structures contained in CPDs contribute to excitation-wavelength independence, whereas random copolymer structures contribute to excitation-wavelength dependence. These studies are of great significance for further understanding the polymer structures and designing unique optical properties of CPDs.展开更多

文摘Stabilizing triplet excited states is important for room temperature phosphorescence(RTP)materials to achieve multifunctional applications in humid environment.However,due to the lack of preparation strategies,the realization of RTP materials in water still faces challenges.Herein,a new design strategy was presented to achieve RTP in water by confining carbonized polymer dots(CPDs)in amino functional mesoporous silica(MSNs-NH_(2)).The as-prepared MSNs-CPDs aqueous dispersion exhibited blue afterglow,lasting more than 3 s to naked eyes.The triplet excited states were protected from non-radiative deactivation by the double-confinement effect including covalent bonding fixation and mesoporous structure confinement.The MSNs-CPDs inherited the structure of MSNs-NH_(2),so the stability of morphology and properties were superior to CPDs and even most of silica-based CPDs RTP materials.A water-related encryption technique demonstrated the promising application of MSNs-CPDs as smart materials in the field of information security.Besides,the possibility of potential application in ion detection was also explored.

文摘High phosphorus steel slag and carbonized rice husk are two common wastes characterized by high generation and low secondary use values.Through the reduction of high phosphorus steel slag by biomass,both wastes were fully utilized,thus reducing the negative impact on the environment.In this study,variables such as temperature,time,and amount of reactants were changed to determine the optimal conditions for the reaction of steel slag with carbonized rice husk at high temperatures.The actual amount of reducing agent consumed during the reduction was significantly greater than that predicted by theoretical calculations.Adding three carbon equivalent of carbonized rice husk and maintaining at 1500℃ for 30 min could remove 79.25% of P_(2)O_(5) in the slag.By modeling the material cycle in which high phosphorus steel slag was treated with biomass,the product could be used for crop growth.Meanwhile,the reduced iron and residual steel slag can be used tomake steel again,thereby leading to a sharp reduction in fossil fuel usage and greenhouse gas emissions in this process.

文摘The conductive polymer composites(CPCs) with highly efficient electromagnetic interference(EMI)shielding effectiveness(SE) are always accompanied with excessive reflectivity, which would cause serious secondary EMI pollution. In this regard, the significant reduction of EMI reflection of CPCs to alleviate secondary pollution is deemed to be very important. Herein, a promising cyanate ester(CE) based composite was successfully fabricated by compounding carbonized spent coffee grounds(C-SCG) and graphene nanosheets(GNSs) via a facile solution blending followed by a hot-pressing method. Benefiting from the porous structure of C-SCG and the layered structure of GNSs, a three-dimensional(3 D)multi-interface conductive network in the CE was easily constructed. The EMI SE of the resultant 9 wt%C-SCG/CE composite(C9) is 15.38 d B and dramatically enhanced to 31.09 d B with the presence of 3 wt% GNSs. The remarkable enhancement is mainly attributed to the formation of the efficient conductive pathways as well as the well-dispersion of the incorporated fillers. Meanwhile, the absorption-dominated shielding mechanism in the prepared composites gets benefit from the synergistic effect of porous C-SCG and lamellar GNSs, which effectively captures and attenuates electromagnetic waves. These encouraging findings extend the practical applications of porous biocarbon materials in EMI shielding field.
文摘Silicon carbide (SiC) has been prepared by passing natural gas over (100) oriented hot Si substrate at different temperatures in the range 930~1000℃. Reaction times of 60 and 90 min are used.Depth profile, using Auger Electron Spectroscopy, shows the formation of SiC under a thin coating of carbon for the samples prepared at 930 and 950℃. Annealing, at 1050℃ for 12 h,results in a more pronounced formation of SiC. It is found that at the temperature of 1000℃and reaction times of 60 and 90 min, a hard diamond-like coating is formed.

文摘In recent years,flexible strain sensors have received considerable attention owing to their excellent flexibility and multifunctionality.However,it is still a great challenge for them to accurately monitor multi-model deformations with high sensitivity and linearity.In this study,the industrial insulating silk habotai was successfully converted into carbonized silk habotai(CSH)for use in strain sensors.A strain sensor created using CSH exhibited excellent sensing performance under multi-model deformations,including stretching,twist and bending.The maximum tensile strain was 434%.The gauge factors were 14.6 in the wide tensile range of 0%–400%with a high linearity of 0.959.In addition,the CSH strain sensor exhibited an extremely fast response time(110 ms)and could accurately detect bending(0°–180°)and torsional(0°–180°)strains.High durability and repeatability were observed for the multi-model strains.Finally,a new type of smart pillow was developed to accurately record head movement and breathing during sleep.The sensor may also be used for auxiliary training in table tennis.The proposed CSH strain sensor has shown great potential for applications in smart devices and human-machine interactions.

文摘Identification of lymph nodes(LNs)is critical for studies of the structure,the role in disease development,and the efficacy of disease treatment.Carbonized polymer dots(CPDs)are expected to be potential LNs-targeted imaging agents due to their excellent properties with special structure,better photoluminescence(PL)and great biocompatibility.Herein,a red/near infrared(NIR)emission CPDs(RCPDs)with one and two-photon bioimaging based on citric acid(CA)and benzoylurea(BU)are prepared.Notably,the RCPDs are capable of targeting LNs for imaging.Lymphocyte homing has been demonstrated to be the cellular mechanism of RCPDs target LNs imaging.This work has developed a new nanomaterial for targeted imaging of LNs,while the biological applications of CPDs have been expanded and deepened.

文摘Humic acid(HA)was carbonized at 300,400 and 500℃ and then functionalized with 1 wt%–12 wt%Fe(Ⅲ)respectively[CHA300/400/500-Fe(Ⅲ)].Adsorption of such Fe(III)-functionalized carbonized HA as adsorbents to aqueous tetracycline(TC:25 mg·L^-1)was studied.The adsorption equilibrium time for CHA400-Fe(Ⅲ)to TC was 6 h faster and the adsorption removal efficiency(Re)was two times higher than that of HA/CHA.The adsorption Reof CHA400-Fe(Ⅲ)loaded 10%iron[CHA400-(10%)Fe(Ⅲ)]to TC could reach 99.8%at 8 h and still kept80.6%after 8 cycles.The adsorption kinetics were well fitted to the pseudo-second-order equation and the adsorption isotherms could be well delineated via Langmuir equations(R^2N 0.99),indicating that the homogeneous chemical adsorption of TC occurred on the adsorbents.The main adsorption mechanisms of TC were complexation Fe(III)and hydrophobic distribution.Electropositive and electronegative repulsion between TC and CHA400-(10%)Fe(Ⅲ)at lowly p H(2)and highly p H(8–10)respectively,leaded to the relatively low adsorption capacity and more notable influence of ion concentration.When the p H was between 4 and 8,TC mainly existed in neutral molecules(TCH2),so the influence of ion concentration was not obvious.The dynamic adsorption results showed that the CHA400-(10%)Fe(Ⅲ)could continuously treat about 2.4 L TC(27 mg·L^-1)wastewater with the effluent concentration as low as 0.068 mg·L^-1.Our study suggested a broad application prospect of a new,effective,lowcost and environment-friendly adsorbent CHA400-(10%)Fe(Ⅲ)for treatment of low-concentration TC polluted wastewater.

文摘It is highly desired to accurately and selectively detect and image intracellular L-lysine and pH in biological systems because they could act as the biomarkers in certain abnormal conditions and may give us a warning of the occurrence of diseases.It has been attracted more focuses to design new ratiometric fluorescent probe for monitoring L-lysine and pH to improve detection accuracy.Carbonized polymer dots(CPDs),which possess carbon/polymer hybrid structure rather than pure carbon structure and constitute of a carbon core and large amounts of functional groups/polymer chains on the surface,rise up as a new type of fluorescent nanomaterials and especially display many advantages for bioanalysis.In this study,o-phenylenediamine(o-PD)and poly(styrene-co-maleic anhydride)(PSMA)are used as the precursors to synthesize the desired CPDs through one-step hydrothermal amide method.The prepared CPDs display two well-resolved fluorescence emission bands,i.e.,a very weak emission centered at 470 nm in blue region and a strong emission centered at 558 nm in yellow region.It is found that the two emissions are both responsive to L-lysine based on the surface passivation mechanism,whereas,only the yellow emission is responsive to pH due to the protonation/deprotonation process of the amino groups.Based on the different responsive behaviors,ratiometric detection and imaging of L-lysine and pH are achieved.The prepared ratiometric CPDs probe is successfully applied for L-lysine and pH sensing and imaging at two emission channels in live cell and zebrafish with satisfactory results.
文摘Zinc oxide nanoparticles(ZnOnp) are molecular nanoparticles synthesized by a chemical precipitation method from zinc nitrate tetrahydrate and sodium hydroxide.Carbonized sawdust(CSD) was prepared from sawdust obtained from a local wood mill.The matrix of both provides a better material as an adsorbent.The present study applied the functionality of ZnOnp,CSD,and ZnOnp-CSD matrix as adsorbent materials for the removal of Pb(Ⅱ) ions from aqueous solution.The method of batch process was employed to investigate the potential of the adsorbents.The influence of pH,contact time,initial concentration of adsorbate,the dosage of adsorbents,and the temperature of adsorbate-adsorbent mixture on the adsorption capacity were revealed.The adsorption isotherm studies indicate that both Freundlich and Langmuir isotherms were suitable to express the experimental data obtained with theoretical maximum adsorption capacities(q_(m)) of 70.42,87.72,and 92.59 mg·g^(-1) for the adsorption of Pb(Ⅱ) ions onto ZnOnp,CSD,and ZnOnp-CSD matrix,respectively.The separation factors(R_(L)) calculated showed that the use of the adsorbents for the removal of Pb(Ⅱ) ions is a feasible process with R_(L) <1.The thermodynamic parameters obtained revealed that the processes are endothermic,feasible,and spontaneous in nature at 25-50℃.Evaluation of the kinetic model elected that the processes agreed better with pseudo-second order where the values of rate constant(k_2) obtained for the adsorption of Pb(Ⅱ) ions onto ZnOnp,CSD,and ZnOnp-CSD matrix are 0.00149,0.00188,and 0.00315 g·mg^(-1)·min^(-1),respectively.The reusability potential examined for four cycles indicated that the adsorbents have better potential and economic value of reuse and the ZnOnp-CSD matrix indicates improved adsorbent material to remove Pb(Ⅱ) ions from aqueous solution.

文摘Development of high-performance solid state luminescent carbon-based nanomaterials remains challenging.Here,strong blue-green fluorescent carbonized polymer dots(CPDs)from o-aminobenzenethiol and thiosalicylic acid(o ABT-TSA-CPDs)with an absolute photoluminescence quantum yield(PLQY)of 76%in solid state without matrix were synthesized.Through adjusting the reaction temperature and time,the PL centers were proved to be carbon core state and surface state associated to carbonyl group which was the source of strong fluorescence emission in solid state.The mechanism of the unique phenomenon of enhanced emission from ethanol solution(PLQY=7%)to powder(PLQY=76%)was investigated by analyzing the chemical properties and structures of o ABT-TSA-CPDs at different temperatures and o ABT-TSACPDs/PVC composites,and was confirmed as fixation of PL centers.

文摘Three kinds of carbonized polymer dots(CPDs) synthesized via a one-pot process from ophenylenediamine(OPD), m-phenylenediamine(MPD) and p-phenylenediamine(PPD) exhibit excitationwavelength independent yellow, green and red emissions, respectively. In sharp contrast, two kinds of CPDs prepared via a hydrothermal process from citric acid(CA) and diethylenetriamine(DETA) exhibit obvious excitation-wavelength dependent emissions. Through the characterization and comparison of the two types of CPDs, it is concretely revealed that the polymer structure types during the formation of CPDs can effectively control the fluorescence excitation-wavelength independence/dependence. The homogeneous polymer structures contained in CPDs contribute to excitation-wavelength independence, whereas random copolymer structures contribute to excitation-wavelength dependence. These studies are of great significance for further understanding the polymer structures and designing unique optical properties of CPDs.

文摘Carbonized polymer dots(CPDs)modified layer-structured CdBiO_(2)Br(CPDs/CdBiO_(2)Br)Z-scheme heterojunction hybrid material has been synthesized via simple solvothermal method.The hybrid material with Z-scheme heterojunction can effectively maintain the original highly oxidizing holes of CdBiO_(2)Br and the highly reducing electrons of CPDs.In addition,the construction of heterostructure is beneficial to the migration and separation of photogenerated carriers.Under visible light irradiation,6 wt%CPDs/CdBiO_(2)Br showed the best catalytic activity for degradation of organic pollutants.Free radical capture experiments and ESR analysis confirmed that the main active species are·O_(2)^(-)and h^(+).The decomposition process of organic pollutants was analyzed by LC-MS.Finally,the probable visible light mechanism performance of CPDs/CdBiO_(2)Br as direct Z-scheme heterojunction photocatalytic materials was proposed.
