It has been found that the as-prepared Fe-MNRs with 3D flowerlike nanostructures （Fe-MNRs ＋ FNs） exhibit good absorption property for a typical heavy metal ion （Cr^VI） in wastewater, while Fe-MNRs do not possess such properties. The Fe-MNRs ＋ FNs could remove 99% CrvI ions from the solution in 40 min, and this adsorption property can be attributed to the ion exchange between Cr^VI and surface hydroxyl groups （O-H） of 3D flowerlike nanostructures. The present result suggests that the Fe-MNRs ＋ FNs, prepared by facile way, possess great potentials in removing heavy metallic ions in wastewater.展开更多

Novel flowerlike Cu20 micro-nanocrystals were prepared by a greener reductive reaction of cupric acetate monohydrate with ethylene glycol in aqueous solutions of [C8mim]X （X = CI-, Br-, BF4-, PFr-） and [C,,mim][BF4]...Novel flowerlike Cu20 micro-nanocrystals were prepared by a greener reductive reaction of cupric acetate monohydrate with ethylene glycol in aqueous solutions of [C8mim]X （X = CI-, Br-, BF4-, PFr-） and [C,,mim][BF4] （n = 4, 6, 8）. The obtained mi- crostructures of Cu2O were characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy （SEM）, X-ray diffraction （XRD） and Fourier Transform Infrared （FT-IR）. The effects of cations, anions and concentration of the ionic liquids on the morphology of Cu20 were examined in some details. The results suggest that the formation of flowerlike Cu20 was governed by a [Csmim][BF4] controlled reductive reaction mechanism. As one of their applications, the Cu20 nanoparticles were used for the photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue in aqueous solution, and high photocatalytic activity was observed.展开更多

Hereby, we present a comprehensive study in terms of petrography, zircon U-Pb geochronology, geochemistry and Sr-Nd-Pb isotope. The rock exposed as small-scale dykes in the field, intruding in the Archean migmatized biotite- plagioclase genesis at the southern margin of the North China Craton. It exhibits typical porphyrite texture with plagioclase and amphibole as dominant and subdominant phenocrysts, respectively. The diorite porphyry rocks contain 51 wt.%-59 wt.% SiO2, belonging to medium-K calc-alkaline rock series. They are characterized by enrichment of large ion lithophile elements （LILEs, e.g., Ba） and depletion of high field-strength elements （HFSEs, e.g., Nb, Ta, Zr and Hf）, resembling island arc magmatic rocks. They show high initial Sr isotopic ratios （0.710 7-0.715 8）, low eNd（t） values （-9.9 to -13.3） and variable initial Pb isotopic ratios （206pb/204Pb vary from 17.3 to 19.3）, similar to the coeval intermediate and mafic magmatic rocks of adjacent region. These geochemical features indicate that the Wulong diorite porphyry is likely to originate from an enriched mantle with contamination of crustal materials. Zircon U-Pb dating results reveal a magma crystallization age of 480-A3 Ma, consistent with the summit of the magmatic events of the Qinling orogenic belt and reflecting the northernmost Paleozoic magmatic activity of the belt. This may indicate the influence of northward subduction of Paleotethyan oceanic slab can extend a distance of ca. 200 km to the north and reach Luoyang-Songshan region in the East Qinling Orogen.展开更多

The ...Three dendronized polymers from generation one to generation three have been prepared by complexing negatively charged Frechet-type dendrons with a polyanion, poly（diallydimethylammoniurn chloride） （PDADMAC）. The gaffing degree has been confirmed mainly by elemental analysis. In dilute solutions of tetrahydrofuran, static light scattering studies indicate that the first generation complex has a coil-like conformation, even more flexible than PDADMAC. The second and third generation complexes exhibit polyelectrolyte behavior. Dynamic light scattering experiments indicate that all the three complexes have almost the same hydrodynamic radius, indicating that they might own similar coil conformation. Atomic force microscopy shows the existence of disordered globules formed by one or a couple of complex coils. All these observations can be explained by the flowerlike coil conformation, which is formed by the intra-molecular association. This is totally different from the stretched chain conformation formed by covalently connected dendronized polymers. This result also explains why some ordered supramolecular structures, found in condensed state of the similar complexes, are not as perfect as those of conventional dendronized polymers.展开更多
