The addition of Na2SO3 into the solution can accelerate anodic dissolution of gold. The factors affecting selective dissolution of gold in the alkaline thiourea solution by electrolysis have been studied, and the optimum condition was obtained. In 0.1 mol/L thiourea solution of pH 12. 5 containing 0. 5 mol/L Na2SO3 and 2. 5% acetone, at the potential of 0. 34 V vs NHE, at the temperature of 323 K, the dissolved mass of gold anode with the exposed area of 1. 0 cm2 reached more than 300 mg·dm-3 within 30 min, and other metals such as silver, copper, nickel and iron could hardly dissolve.展开更多

The interaction mechanism between mineral and PECTU was investigated according to zeta potential and electrochemistry measurements in the presence of PECTU. The results proved that PECTU performed a stronger ability to capture chalcopyrite and a better selectivity against pyrite. The zeta potential of chalcopyrite was positively shifted after interacting with PECTU, which indicated that the collector PECTU was obviously adsorbed on chalcopyrite surface. The cyclic voltammetry and Tafel curves results indicated that the oxidation and corrosion rates of chalcopyrite surface were limited in the presence of PECTU, while the effect of PECTU on pyrite in weak alkaline solution can be neglected basically according to the results of zeta potential and electrochemical tests.展开更多

The thermodynamic analyses were conducted on the dissolving of gold in the alkaline thiourea solution containing Na 2SO 3 by the oxidants oxygen or Na 2S 2O 8. The results show that the possibility of gold dissolution reduces with increasing pH value, while oxygen acts as oxidant; and when Na 2S 2O 8 acts as the oxidant of gold in the alkaline thiourea solution of pH 12.5, decomposition potential of thiourea decreases from the standard value 0.42 V to -0.32 V, also the dissolution trend of gold enhances with shifting the mix potential of the solution to the positive direction.展开更多

B3LYP/6-311＋＋G（3df,3pd） and RCIS/6-311＋＋G（3df,3pd） calculations were done to elucidate the ultraviolet electronic transitions, the distorted geometry structure and the saddle point of thiourea in 21A excited state, respectively. The resonance Raman spectra were assigned. The absorption spectrum and resonance Raman intensities were modeled using Heller＇s time-dependent wavepacket approach to resonance Raman scattering. The results indicate that largest change in the displacement takes place with the C--S stretch mode u6 （｜△｜=0.95） and noticeable changes appear in the H5N3H6＋H8N4H7 wag v5 （｜△｜=0.19）, NCN symmetric stretch^-C--S stretch＋N3H6＋H8N4 wag v4 （｜△｜=0.18）, while the moderate intensities of 2-15 and 4-15 are mostly due to the large excited state frequency changes of v15, but not due to its significant change in the normal mode displacement. The mechanism of the appearance of even overtones of the S-CN2 out of plane deformation is explored. The results indicate that a Franck-Condon region saddle point is the driving force for the quadric phonon mechanism within the standard A-term of resonance Raman scattering, which leads to the pyramidalization of the carbon center and the geometry distortion of thiourea molecule in 21A excited state.展开更多

文摘Highly dispersed tungsten carbide（WC） nanoparticles（NPs） sandwiched between few-layer reduced graphene oxide（RGO） have been successfully synthesized by using thiourea as an anchoring and inducing reagent.The metatungstate ion,[H2W（12）O（40）]^6-,is assembled on thiourea-modified graphene oxide（GO） by an impregnation method.The WC NPs,with a mean diameter of 1.5 nm,are obtained through a process whereby ammonium metatungstate first turns to WS2,which then forms an intercalation compound with RGO before growing,in situ,to WC NPs.The Pt/WC-RGO electrocatalysts are fabricated by a microwave-assisted method.The intimate contacts between Pt,WC,and RGO are confirmed by X-ray diffraction,scanning electron microscope,transmission electron microscope,and Raman spectroscopy.For methanol oxidation,the Pt/WC-RGO electrocatalyst exhibited an electrochemical surface area value of 246.1 m^2/g Pt and a peak current density of1364.7 mA/mg Pt,which are,respectively,3.66 and 4.77 times greater than those of commercial Pt/C electrocatalyst（67.2 m^2/g Pt,286.0 mA/mg Pt）.The excellent CO-poisoning resistance and long-term stability of the electrocatalyst are also evidenced by CO stripping,chronoamperometry,and accelerated durability testing.Because Pt/WC-RGO has higher catalytic activity compared with that of commercial Pt/C,as a result of its intercalated structure and synergistic effect,less Pt will be required for the same performance,which in turn will reduce the cost of the fuel cell.The present method is facile,efficient,and scalable for mass production of the nanomaterials.

In 0.1 mol/L thiourea solution of pH 12. 5 containing 0. 5 mol/L Na2SO3 and 2. 5% acetone, at the potential of 0. 34 V vs NHE, at the temperature of 323 K, the dissolved mass of gold anode with the exposed area of 1. 0 cm2 reached more than 300 mg·dm-3 within 30 min, and other metals such as silver, copper, nickel and iron could hardly dissolve.

文摘The characteristics of N-propyl-N′-ethoxycarbonyl thiourea（PECTU） were studied in the flotation experiments of chalcopyrite and pyrite compared with butyl xanthate（BX）. The interaction mechanism between mineral and PECTU was investigated according to zeta potential and electrochemistry measurements in the presence of PECTU. The results proved that PECTU performed a stronger ability to capture chalcopyrite and a better selectivity against pyrite. The zeta potential of chalcopyrite was positively shifted after interacting with PECTU, which indicated that the collector PECTU was obviously adsorbed on chalcopyrite surface. The cyclic voltammetry and Tafel curves results indicated that the oxidation and corrosion rates of chalcopyrite surface were limited in the presence of PECTU, while the effect of PECTU on pyrite in weak alkaline solution can be neglected basically according to the results of zeta potential and electrochemical tests.
文摘The oxidants of gold were investigated in an alkaline thiourea solution containing Na 2CO 3, in which Na 2S 2O 8 is a proper oxidant for dissolving gold because of in such homogeneous sulfur system coexisting complex agent, oxidant and stabilizing agent. The thermodynamic analyses were conducted on the dissolving of gold in the alkaline thiourea solution containing Na 2SO 3 by the oxidants oxygen or Na 2S 2O 8. The results show that the possibility of gold dissolution reduces with increasing pH value, while oxygen acts as oxidant; and when Na 2S 2O 8 acts as the oxidant of gold in the alkaline thiourea solution of pH 12.5, decomposition potential of thiourea decreases from the standard value 0.42 V to -0.32 V, also the dissolution trend of gold enhances with shifting the mix potential of the solution to the positive direction.

文摘The A-band resonance Raman spectra of thiourea were obtained in water and acetonitrile solution. B3LYP/6-311＋＋G（3df,3pd） and RCIS/6-311＋＋G（3df,3pd） calculations were done to elucidate the ultraviolet electronic transitions, the distorted geometry structure and the saddle point of thiourea in 21A excited state, respectively. The resonance Raman spectra were assigned. The absorption spectrum and resonance Raman intensities were modeled using Heller＇s time-dependent wavepacket approach to resonance Raman scattering. The results indicate that largest change in the displacement takes place with the C--S stretch mode u6 （｜△｜=0.95） and noticeable changes appear in the H5N3H6＋H8N4H7 wag v5 （｜△｜=0.19）, NCN symmetric stretch^-C--S stretch＋N3H6＋H8N4 wag v4 （｜△｜=0.18）, while the moderate intensities of 2-15 and 4-15 are mostly due to the large excited state frequency changes of v15, but not due to its significant change in the normal mode displacement. The mechanism of the appearance of even overtones of the S-CN2 out of plane deformation is explored. The results indicate that a Franck-Condon region saddle point is the driving force for the quadric phonon mechanism within the standard A-term of resonance Raman scattering, which leads to the pyramidalization of the carbon center and the geometry distortion of thiourea molecule in 21A excited state.

文摘The solubility,metastable zone width(MSZW),and induction time of thiourea for cooling crystallization were experimentally determined in the temperature range of 283-323 K.The solubility data could be well described by the Apelblat equation model as lnx=-99.55+1071.66/T+16.27 lnT.The determinations of the effects of various stirring and cooling rates indicated that the MSZW increased with increasing and decreasing cooling and stirring rates,respectively.Furthermore,the induction times at various temperatures and supersaturation ratios were also measured.The results indicated that homogeneous nucleation could occur at high supersaturation,whereas heterogeneous nucleation was more likely to occur at low supersaturation.Based on the classical nucleation theory and induction period data,the calculated solid-liquid interfacial tensions of thiourea in deionized water at 302.46 and 312.58 K were 2.86 and 2.94 mJ·m^(-2),respectively.
