The results revealed that the rich cerium rare earth carbonate could be changed into the rare earth oxide which was a kind of sandwich made of globose granule whose diameter was between 0.5～3.0 μm after being roasted in 900 ℃ for 2 h. This kind of crystal lattice in rare earth oxide belonged to face-centered cubic lattice and its space between crystal surface {111} and {200} (viz. L111 and L200) would enlarge as the roasting temperature increasing. With increasing roasting temperature, L111 would rise straightly upward, and L200 would rise straightly upward when roasting time was 2～4 h but changed little when roasting time was 4～6 h. The glass-polishing experiments found that the polishing ability of the ceria-based rare earth oxide was the best as L111 was 43～53 nm and the L200 was 43～56 nm.展开更多

The oxide to nitride removal selectivity of the ceria slurry with picolinic acid is as high as 76.6 in the chemical mechanical polishing. By using zeta potential analyzer, particle size analyzer, horizon profilometer, thermogravimetric analysis and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, the pre- and the post-polished wafer surfaces as well as the pre- and the post-used ceria-based slurries are compared. Possible mechanism of high oxide to nitride selectivity with using ceria-based slurry with picolinic acid is discussed.展开更多

文摘The cobalt-free Mn-based Li-rich layered oxide material has the advantages of low cost,high energy density,and good performance at low temperatures,and is the promising choice for energy storage batteries.However,the long-cycling stability of batteries needs to be improved.Herein,the Mn-based Li-rich cathode materials with small amounts of Li2 MnO3 crystal domains and gradient doping of Al and Ti elements from the surface to the bulk have been developed to improve the structure and interface stability.Then the batteries with a high energy density of 600 Wh kg^(-1),excellent capacity retention of 99.7%with low voltage decay of 0.03 mV cycle^(-1) after 800 cycles,and good rates performances can be achieved.Therefore,the structure and cycling stability of low voltage Mn-based Li-rich cathode materials can be significantly improved by the bulk structure design and interface regulation,and this work has paved the way for developing low-cost and high-energy Mn-based energy storage batteries with long lifetime.

文摘Bisphenol A(BPA)is a pervasive endocrine disruptor that enters the environment through anthropogenic activities,posing significant risks to ecosystems and human health.Advanced oxidation processes(AOPs)are promising methods for the removal of organic microcontaminants in the environment.Biogenic manganese oxides(BMO)are reported as catalysts due to their transitionmetal nature,and are also readily generated bymanganeseoxidizing microorganisms in the natural environment,and therefore their roles and effects in AOPs-based environmental remediation should be investigated.However,biogenic ironmanganese oxides(BFMO)are actually generated rather than BMO due to the coexistence of ferrous ionswhich can be oxidized to iron oxides.Therefore,this study produced BFMO originating from a highly efficientmanganese-oxidizing fungus Cladosporium sp.XM01 and chose peroxymonosulfate(PMS)as a typical oxidant for the degradation of bisphenol A(BPA),a model organic micropollutant.Characterization results indicate that the formed BFMO was amorphouswith a lowcrystallinity.The BFMO/PMS system achieved a high degradation performance that 85%BPA was rapidly degraded within 60min,and therefore the contribution of BFMO cannot be ignored during PMS-based environmental remediation.Different from the findings of previous studies(mostly radicals and singlet oxygen),the degradationmechanism was first proven as a 100%electron-transfer pathway mediated by high-valence Mn under acidic conditions provided by PMS.The findings of this study provide new insights into the degradation mechanisms of pollutants using biogenic metal oxides in PMS activation and the contribution of their coexistence in AOPs-based environmental remediation.

文摘A chain of GdCe oxides boosted biochars derived from maize straw and sewage sludge(GdyCe1-y/MPBs)were fabricated for formaldehyde(HCHO)catalytic decomposition.The ingenerate relationship between the abatement performance and corresponding structural feature was comprehensively evaluated by XPS,in situ DRIFTS,BET,XRD,SEM and H_(2)-TPR.Meanwhile,10%Gd0.25Ce0.75/MPB exhibited excellent performance,favorable SO_(2) and moisture toleration over a broad temperature range from 160 to 320℃,where it achieved 96.8%removal efficiency with 90.5%selectivity at 200℃.The single or united effects of O_(2),SO_(2),H_(2)O on HCHO abatement over 10%Gd_(0.25)Ce_(0.75)/MPB were tested,and the findings demonstrated that the suppressive effects of SO_(2) and H_(2)O outweighed the promoting influence of O_(2) within a specific range.Gd and Ce co-modified MPB revealed superior HCHO removal capability in contrast to that of Gd or Ce severally modified MPB,ascribing to the synergistic effect of GdO_(x) and CeO_(x) and benefitting from the augmentation of surface area and total pore volume,the aggrandizement of surface active oxygen species,the promotion of redox ability and the inhibition crystallization of CeO_(x).According to in situ DRIFTS,a series of intermediates including formate species and dioxymethylene(DOM)were produced,which would eventually decompose into H_(2)O and CO_(2).In addition,the mass transfer and diffusion of the reactants along with the accessibility of the catalytic sites were enlarged by the hierarchical porous structure of the support,which were also answerable for its distinguished catalytic performance.Furthermore,10%Gd0.25Ce0.75/MPB possessed remarkable potential for industrial applications.

文摘The Kitaev honeycomb model has received significant attention due to its exactly solvable quantum spin liquid ground states and fractionalized excitations.Layered cobalt oxides have been considered as a promising platform for realizing this model.However,in contrast to the conventional wisdom regarding the single-q zigzag magnetic order inferred from previous studies of the candidate materials Na_(2)IrO_(3) and α-RuCl_(3),recent experiments on two representative honeycomb cobalt oxides,hexagonal Na_(2)Co_(2)TeO_(6) and monoclinic Na_(3)Co_(2)SbO_(6),have uncovered evidence for more complex multi-q zigzag order variants.This review surveys the experimental strategies used to distinguish between single-and multi-q orders,along with the crystallographic symmetries of cobalt oxides,in comparison with previously studied systems.The general formation mechanism of multi-q order is also briefly discussed.The goal is to provide a solid ground for examining the relevance of multi-q order in honeycomb cobalt oxides and discuss its implications for the microscopic model of these intriguing quantum magnets.

文摘The use of metal oxides has been extensively documented in the literature and applied in a variety of contexts,including but not limited to energy storage,chemical sensors,and biomedical applications.One of the most significant applications of metal oxides is heterogeneous catalysis,which represents a pivotal technology in industrial production on a global scale.Catalysts serve as the primary enabling agents for chemical reactions,and among the plethora of catalysts,metal oxides including magnesium oxide(MgO),ceria(CeO_(2))and titania(TiO_(2)),have been identified to be particularly effective in catalyzing a variety of reactions[1].Theoretical calculations based on density functional theory(DFT)and a multitude of other quantum chemistry methods have proven invaluable in elucidating the mechanisms of metal-oxide-catalyzed reactions,thereby facilitating the design of high-performance catalysts[2].

文摘We report on the investigation of the origin of high oxide to nitride polishing selectivity of ceria-based slurry in the presence of picolinic acid. The oxide to nitride removal selectivity of the ceria slurry with picolinic acid is as high as 76.6 in the chemical mechanical polishing. By using zeta potential analyzer, particle size analyzer, horizon profilometer, thermogravimetric analysis and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, the pre- and the post-polished wafer surfaces as well as the pre- and the post-used ceria-based slurries are compared. Possible mechanism of high oxide to nitride selectivity with using ceria-based slurry with picolinic acid is discussed.

文摘To mitigate the impact of interdiffusion reactions between the silicide slurry and Ta12W alloy substrate during vacuum sintering process on the oxidation resistance of the silicide coating,a micro-arc oxidation pretreatment was employed to construct a Ta_(2)O_(5)ceramic layer on the Ta12W alloy surface.Subsequently,a slurry spraying-vacuum sintering method was used to prepare a Si-Cr-Ti-Zr coating on the pretreated substrate.Comparative studies were conducted on the microstructure,phase composition,and isothermal oxidation resistance(at 1600℃)of the as-prepared coatings with and without the micro-arc oxidation ceramic layer.The results show that the Ta_(2)O_(5)layer prepared at 400 V is more continuous and has smaller pores than that prepared at 350 V.After microarc oxidation pretreatment,the Si-Cr-Ti-Zr coating on Ta12W alloy consists of three distinct layers:an upper layer dominated by Ti_(5)Si_(3),Ta_(5)Si_(3),and ZrSi;a middle layer dominated by TaSi_(2);a coating/substrate interfacial reaction layer dominated by Ta_(5)Si_(3).Both the Si-Cr-Ti-Zr coatings with and without the Ta_(2)O_(5)ceramic layer do not fail after isothermal oxidation at 1600℃for 5 h.Notably,the addition of the Ta2O5 ceramic layer reduces the high-temperature oxidation rate of the coating.

文摘In this study,a string of Cr-Mnco-modified activated coke catalysts(XCryMn1-y/AC)were prepared to investigate toluene and Hg^(0) removal performance.Multifarious characterizations including XRD,TEM,SEM,in situ DRIFTS,BET,XPS and H_(2)-TPR showed that 4%Cr0.5Mn0.5/AC had excellent physicochemical properties and exhibited the best toluene and Hg^(0) removal efficiency at 200℃.By varying the experimental gas components and conditions,it was found that too large weight hourly space velocity would reduce the removal efficiency of toluene and Hg^(0).Although O_(2) promoted the abatement of toluene and Hg^(0),the inhibitory role of H_(2)O and SO_(2) offset the promoting effect of O_(2) to some extent.Toluene significantly inhibited Hg^(0) removal,resulting from that toluene was present at concentrations orders of magnitude greater than mercury’s or the catalyst was more prone to adsorb toluene,while Hg^(0) almost exerted non-existent influence on toluene elimination.The mechanistic analysis showed that the forms of toluene and Hg^(0) removal included both adsorption and oxidation,where the high-valent metal cations and oxygen vacancy clusters promoted the redox cycle of Cr^(3+)+Mn^(3+)/Mn^(4+)+Cr^(6+)+Mn^(2+),which facilitated the conversion and replenishment of reactive oxygen species in the oxidation process,and even the CrMn_(1.5)O_(4) spinel structure could provide a larger catalytic interface,thus enhancing the adsorption/oxidation of toluene and Hg^(0).Therefore,its excellent physicochemical properties make it a costeffective potential industrial catalyst with outstanding synergistic toluene and Hg^(0) removal performance and preeminent resistance to H_(2)O and SO_(2).

文摘Water scarcity,driven by climate change and population growth,necessitates innovative desalination technologies.Conventional methods for brackish water desalination are limited by high-energy demands,especially in the low salinity range,prompting the exploration of electrochemical approaches like faradaic deionization.Sodium-manganese oxides,traditionally used in sodium-ion batteries,show promise as faradaic deionization electrode materials due to their abundance,low toxicity,and cost-effectiveness.However,capacity fading during cycling,often caused by structural changes,volume expansion,or chemical transformations,remains a critical challenge.This study investigates the impact of morphology and crystal structure on the electrochemical performance of commercial and synthesized sodium-manganese oxides for faradaic deionization applications.Structural and electrochemical characterization in three-electrode cells with low-concentration electrolytes provided insights into the charge storage mechanisms.Rocking-chair full flow cell experiments demonstrated that the mixed-phase sodium-manganese oxide exhibited superior desalination performance,achieving a high salt removal capacity of 54.5 mg g^(−1)and a mean value in the salt removal rate of 1.49 mg g^(−1)min^(-1).Notably,mixed-phase sodium-manganese oxide maintained 98%capacity retention over 870 cycles,one of the longest reported cycling experiments in this field,effectively mitigating the Jahn-Teller effect.These findings highlight the crucial role of sodium-manganese oxide structure and morphology in electrochemical performance,positioning mixed-phase sodium-manganese oxide as a strong candidate for sustainable water treatment technologies.

文摘Although the powder Fenton-like catalysts have exhibited high catalytic performances towards pollutant degradation,they cannot be directly used for Fenton-like industrialization considering the problems of loss and recovery.Therefore,the membrane fixation of catalyst is an important step to realize the actual application of Fenton-like catalysts.In this work,an efficient catalyst was developed with Co-N_(x)configuration facilely reconstructed on the surface of Co_(3)O_(4)(Co-N_(x)/Co_(3)O_(4)),which exhibited superior catalytic activity.We further fixed the highly efficient Co-N_(x)/Co_(3)O_(4)onto three kinds of organic membranes and one kind of inorganic ceramic membrane installing with the residual PMS treatment device to investigate its catalytic stability and sustainability.Results indicated that the inorganic ceramic membrane(CM)can achieve high water flux of 710 L m-2h-1,and the similar water flux can be achieved by Co-N_(x)/Co_(3)O_(4)/CM even without the pressure extraction.We also employed the Co-N_(x)/Co_(3)O_(4)/CM system to the wastewater secondary effluent,and the pollutant in complicated secondary effluent could be highly removed by the Co-N_(x)/Co_(3)O_(4)/CM system.This paper provides a new point of view for the application of metal-based catalysts with M-N_(x)coordination in catalytic reaction device.

文摘A_(2)B_(2)O_(7)high-entropy oxides are ceramic materials characterized by diverse compositions,strong structural inclusivity,and a broad range of potential applications.These materials hold significant value in fields such as thermal barrier coatings,energy storage,dielectric materials,and transparent ceramics.However,there are limited reports on the dielectric properties of A_(2)B_(2)O_(7)high-entropy oxides.Consequently,further investigation is required to understand the polarization mechanisms in high-entropy ceramics and analyze the formation of oxygen vacancies and their influence.In the present study,La_(2)[(TiZrSnHfGe)_((1-2x)5)(NbGa)_(x)]_(2)O_(7)(x=0.129,0.143,0.157,0.171)(LTZSHGNGO)ceramics were synthesized successfully using a conventional solidstate reaction method.Compared withLa_(2)(TiZrSnHfGe)_(2)O_(7)ceramics,LTZSHGNGO demonstrated a nearly 6.7-fold increase in dielectric constant and a 33%reduction in dielectric loss.The incorporation of Nb/Ga enhanced the high-temperature dielectric properties and improved dielectric stability.The exceptional dielectric performance is primarily attributed to the synergistic highentropy effect,while Nb/Ga doping increased the number of oxygen vacancies and generated more defect dipole clusters[Ti^(4+)·e-V_(O)^(**)-Ti^(4+)·e].This study provides novel insights into the dielectric properties of LTZSHGNGO high-entropy ceramics and offers a novel approach to understanding the performance of A_(2)B_(2)O_(7)ceramics.

文摘Recently,the strategy of tuning the dielectric parameters of absorbers for their excellent electromag-netic wave absorption(EMA)performance has attracted much attention.Among those candidates used for EMA application,high-entropy oxides(HEOs)can be implemented with this strategy due to their rich composition modulability.In this work,a series of implementation approaches varying from elemental design to structural modulation are employed to modulate the dielectric parameters of HEOs,resulting in their excellent EMA performance.The addition of Ti element optimizes the dipole distribution at the microscopic scales,improving the dielectric polarization of the materials.Moreover,a composite mate-rial is constructed by physically blending HEO with acetylene black(ACET),which significantly improves the macroscopic conduction loss of the material.The optimization of the dielectric genes of HEO/ACET is achieved with the blending effect and excellent EMA performance could be obtained.Among them,HEO with 17.5%ACET addition exhibits dual-band absorption,while Ti-HEO containing Ti element exhibits not only low-frequency absorption with reflection loss(RL)up to-29.81 dB at C-band but broadband absorption over 6 GHz as well as an optimal RL value up to-52.31 dB.In addition to the development of innovative EMA materials,this study offers a new perspective on how the EMA characteristics can be effectively regulated.

文摘Proton ceramic fuel cell efficiently converts chemical energy into electrical energy,representing a pivotal component of future energy systems.However,its current performance is hindered by limitations in cathode and electrolyte materials,thereby impeding commercialization.Anion doping emerges as a promising strategy to enhance the electrochemical efficiency of perovskite-based cathodes and electrolytes.However,integrating this approach within a single-cell structure still requires further research.In this study,F-doped perovskite oxides BaCo_(0.4)Fe_(0.4)Zr_(0.1)Y_(0.1)O_(2.9-δ)F_(0.1)(BCFZYF)and BaZr_(0.1)Ce_(0.7)Y_(0.1)Yb_(0.1)O_(2.9-δ)F_(0.1)(BZCYYbF)were synthesized for use as the cathode and electrolyte,respectively,in proton ceramic fuel cells.Our findings demonstrate that F-doped perovskite oxides exhibit superior electrochemical performance and enhanced structural stability.Furthermore,doping both electrodes and electrolytes with F ions improves their interfacial compatibility.The cell configuration BCFZYF|BZCYYbF|Ni-BZCYYbF achieved a peak power density of 998 mW·cm^(−2)at 650℃using H_(2)as fuel,and it maintained stable operation for over 400 h at 550℃with a current density of 400 mA·cm^(−2).This research underscores an effective strategy for enhancing the performance and durability of proton ceramic fuel cells.
