The phase diagram and dynamic evolution of surface nanobubbles were analyzed under varying equilibrium adsorption constant.Four distinct dynamic behaviors appear in the phase diagram: shrinking to dissolution, expanding to bursting, shrinking to stability, and expanding to stability. Special boundary states are identified in phase diagram, where the continuous growth of nanobubbles can take place even under very weak gas–surface interaction or with very small initial bubble size. Surface adsorption plays a critical role in the stability, lifetime, radius, and contact angle of nanobubbles, thereby demonstrating that pinning is not a prerequisite for stabilization. Furthermore, stable equilibrium nanobubbles exhibit a characteristic range of footprint radius, a limited height, and a small contact angle, consistent with experimental observations.展开更多

The calculated results have shown that the surface tension (γ) of the adsorbed liquid nitrogen film on most of non-porous solid surfaces diminishes with the rise of the nitrogen gas pressure (p) or of the adsorbed layers (n) at 77.3K; when p reaches the vapour pressure (p_s) of the bulk liquid nitrogen, y turns into the surface tension (γ_o) of the bulk liquid nitrogen; whgn p /p, 【0.98, there is an obvious difference between γ and γ_O.展开更多

These PILs were characterized by FT-IR,H-NMR,C-NMR, TGA, XRD and SEM. Their COadsorption capacities were measured under different pressures and temperatures by constant-volume technique. It was observed that quaternary ammonium PILs of P[VBTHEA]Cl have higher adsorption capacity for COthan those imidazolium PILs, following P[VBTHEA]Cl > P[VEIm]PF> P[VEIm]BF> P[VEIm]Br, which may be ascribed to higher positive charge density on ammonium cation than that on imidazolium cation and thus stronger interaction with CO, consistent with the results from dual-mode adsorption model that ammonium PILs have much higher CObulk absorption than imidazolium PILs. COadsorption capacity of P[VBTHEA]Cl is 9.02 mg/g under 295 K and 1 bar, which is comparable to that of some other PILs, and is much higher than that of the corresponding ILs monomer. These PILs have good adsorption selectivity for COover Nand regeneration efficiency.展开更多

Compared with two natural adsorbents （zeolite and diatomite）, three solid wastes possessed a higher adsorption capacity for P because of the higher Fe, A1 and Ca contents. After modification （i.e., the fly ash and red mud modified by FeC13 and FARs modified by HC1）, the adsorption capacity increased, especially for the modified red mud, where more Fe bonded P was observed. The P adsorption kinetics can be satisfactorily fitted using the pseudo-second-order model. The Langmuir model can describe well the P adsorption on all of the samples in our study, pH and dissolved organic matter （DOM） are two important factors for P adsorption. Under neutral conditions, the maximum adsorption amount on the modified materials was observed. With the deviation from pH 7, the adsorption amount decreased, which resulted from the change of P species in water and surface charges of the adsorbents. The DOM in water can promote P adsorption, which may be due to the promotion effects of humic-Fe（A1） complexes and the pH buffer function exceeds the depression of competitive adsorption.展开更多

The radioactive gas from the nuclear core in an accident, such as the Fukushima nuclear accident, is usually released occurs under high-temperature conditions. Therefore, in this study, a 10 wt% silver phosphate-loaded alumina(Ag_3 PO_4/Al_2 O_3) adsorbent was prepared. Further, its performance toward radioiodine adsorption was tested at high temperatures up to 750 0 C, using Al_2 O_3 and traditional 10 wt% Ag/Al_2 O_3 adsorbent as controls. The results of the iodine adsorption test indicated that the 10 wt% Ag_3 PO_4/Al_2 O_3 adsorbent showed a higher decontamination factor than did the 10 wt% Ag/Al_2 O_3 adsorbent by two orders of magnitude at 650 and 750℃. Results of the iodine desorption test revealed that the new adsorbent could be effectively used at 750 ℃. The characteristic powder X-ray diffraction, nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherm,X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis-differential scanning calorimetry data indicated that the enhanced adsorption ability at high temperatures was attributed to the formation of a solid solution between silver iodide and Ag_3 PO_4.展开更多

The phenol adsorption performance was tested using temperature programmed desorption technique. The experimental results reveal that the introduction of ionic liquids on the surface of silica nanoparticles can improve the adsorption capacity of phenol compared to the pure silica nanoparticles.The initial adsorption capacity reaches 0.312 mmol·g^-1 at 25 ℃ under total pressure of 0.2 bar and it decreases slightly in the following adsorption-desorption cycles. The results demonstrate that introduction of ionic liquids can improve the phenol adsorption capacity and the simple material preparation process is feasible for industrial applications.展开更多

Surface morphology and structure of adsorbents have a significant impact on the adsorption properties. In this study, a novel acidic ionic liquid, 1-butyl-3-(triethoxysilylpropyl)imidazolium hydrogen sulfate(i.e., [BTPIm][HSO_4]), was synthesized and subsequently grafted onto the MCM-36 zeolite for the regulation of its adsorption properties towards isobutane and 1-butene. The resultant [BTPIm][HSO_4]-immobilized MCM-36(i.e., MCM-36-IL) was characterized by FT-IR, XPS, XRD, SEM, TG/DTG and N_2 adsorption–desorption measurement. It was found that the specific surface area, micropore volume and mesopore volume of the MCM-36 support underwent a reduction upon the immobilization of ionic liquid,while the surface density of acid increased from 0.0014 to 0.0035 mmol·m^(-2). The adsorption capacity of isobutane and 1-butene on the MCM-36-IL was determined by a static volumetric method. Results demonstrated that the interaction between isobutane and MCM-36-IL was enhanced and the interaction between 1-butene and MCM-36-IL was reduced. As a result, a tunable adsorption ratio of isobutane/1-butene on MCM-36 was achieved.With the increase in surface density of acid and the tunable adsorption ratio of isobutane and 1-butene on the functionalized MCM-36, the acidic ionic liquid-immobilized zeolites are beneficial to obtain an improved reaction yield and a prolonged catalyst life in the reactions catalyzed by solid acid.展开更多

Two types of PLCs of propyl hydroxypropyl cellulose ester（PPC） and octyl hydroxypropyl cellulose ester（OPC） were prepared by esterification from hydroxypropyl cellulose, and then were mixed with polyvinyl chloride and polyurethane to obtain composite films by solution casting, respectively. The surface morphology of PLCs and their composite films were characterized by polarized optical microscopy（POM） and scanning electron microscopy（SEM）, suggesting the existence of microdomain separation with fingerprint texture in PLC composite films. Water contact angle measurement results indicated that hydrophilicity of PLC/polymer composite films was dependent on the type and content of PLC as well as the type of matrix due to their interaction. Using bovine serum albumin（BSA） as a model protein, protein adsorption results revealed that PLCs with protein-resistant property can obviously suppress protein adsorption on their composite films, probably due to their flexible LC state. Moreover, all PLCs and their composites exhibited non-toxicity by MTT assay, suggesting their safety for biomedical applications.展开更多

Regulation of isobutane/1-butene adsorption ratio on the zeolite-supported acid catalyst is a big challenge for catalyst preparation. To regulate the isobutane/1-butene adsorption ratio, four types of ionic liquid （i.e., IL） with different alkyl chain lengths and different acid group numbers were synthesized and were subsequently immobilized onto the MCM-22 zeolite. The as-synthesized IL-immobilized MCM-22 （i.e., MCM-22-IL） was characterized by FT1R, TGA, BET, XPS and XRD, and their adsorption capacities and adsorption molar ratios of isobutane to l-butene （I/O） were investigated to correlate with surface features of MCM-22-IL Results showed that the immobilization of ILs led to a decrease of specific surface area and pore volume. But the surface density of acid groups was increased and the adsorption molar ratio of isobutane/1-butene （I/O） was significantly im- proved by the immobilization of ionic liquids. The adsorption molar ratio of I/O is substantially improved from 0.75 to above 0.9 at 300 kPa upon immobilizing ILs. Although the alkyl chain length oflLs was found to have little effect on the adsorption molar ratio of I/O, the increase of acid group numbers led to a dramatic decrease in the adsorption I/O ratio. The results illustrated that immobilizing ionic liquids is an effective way to modify the textural, chemical and morphological properties of MCM-22. Accordingly, the immobilization of ionic liquids provides a novel and a feasible way to regulate the adsorption I/O ratio on an adsorbent or a solid catalyst.展开更多

No X-ray diffraction peak of crystalline Eu2O3 can be found for all samples studied. The LRS show that two peaks at 998 and 1051 cm-1 assigned to two-dimensional surface europium-oxygen species appear at Eu2O3 content of 18.7 wt%. The peak at 1068 cm-1 due to the surface species and another peak at 342cm-1 due to crystalline Eu2O3 content start to appear for the sample with an Eu2O3 content of 36.5 wt%. The dispersity of Eu2O3 on the surface of amorphous Al2O3 were compared with that of α-Al2O3,η-Al2O3 and SiO2 gel. The results of these studies indicate that the structure of Eu2O3 dispersed onto the support surface depend on the structure of support and that there is an inductive effect of support on the structure of the Eu2O3.展开更多

System performance study through computer usage to develop simulation program and simulate behaviors of system operation can give designed system which suits for user’s need. Also, the present study aims to develop dynamic simulation program of solid adsorption refrigeration system operated by solar assistance to simulate behaviors of system operation and its performance. Flat plate collectror is utilized to provide thermal energy for system’s adsorber and activated carbon/methanol is used to be a suitable working pair. Simulation procedure starts with various solar radiation intensities as input energy on solar collector and water is used as collector working fluid. Behavior of system operation can be considered to be 4 steps as isosteric heating, isobaric desorption, isosteric cooling and isobaric adsorption, respectively. This research studies the effect of varying solar radiation intensity on temperature, pressure of adsorber, adsorption ratio at each steps of system operated ranging from 6:00 am (the first day) to 6:00 am (the next day) and system performance which is defined as coefficient of performance, COP. In addition, the simulation result shows monthly average COP of 0.43 compared to a result of another previous research work under the same operating condition and the percentage error is 7.5%.展开更多

文摘We study the effects of gas adsorption on the dynamics and stability of nanobubbles at the solid–liquid interface. The phase diagram and dynamic evolution of surface nanobubbles were analyzed under varying equilibrium adsorption constant.Four distinct dynamic behaviors appear in the phase diagram: shrinking to dissolution, expanding to bursting, shrinking to stability, and expanding to stability. Special boundary states are identified in phase diagram, where the continuous growth of nanobubbles can take place even under very weak gas–surface interaction or with very small initial bubble size. Surface adsorption plays a critical role in the stability, lifetime, radius, and contact angle of nanobubbles, thereby demonstrating that pinning is not a prerequisite for stabilization. Furthermore, stable equilibrium nanobubbles exhibit a characteristic range of footprint radius, a limited height, and a small contact angle, consistent with experimental observations.

With the deviation from pH 7, the adsorption amount decreased, which resulted from the change of P species in water and surface charges of the adsorbents. The DOM in water can promote P adsorption, which may be due to the promotion effects of humic-Fe（A1） complexes and the pH buffer function exceeds the depression of competitive adsorption.

文摘Radioiodine-131 is one of the pernicious radionuclides released during nuclear accidents, as its radioactivity can potentially affect public health and safety.To prevent radioiodine-131 from being released into the environment, the use of adsorbents that are highly efficient at high temperatures is significantly important. The radioactive gas from the nuclear core in an accident, such as the Fukushima nuclear accident, is usually released occurs under high-temperature conditions. Therefore, in this study, a 10 wt% silver phosphate-loaded alumina(Ag_3 PO_4/Al_2 O_3) adsorbent was prepared. Further, its performance toward radioiodine adsorption was tested at high temperatures up to 750 0 C, using Al_2 O_3 and traditional 10 wt% Ag/Al_2 O_3 adsorbent as controls. The results of the iodine adsorption test indicated that the 10 wt% Ag_3 PO_4/Al_2 O_3 adsorbent showed a higher decontamination factor than did the 10 wt% Ag/Al_2 O_3 adsorbent by two orders of magnitude at 650 and 750℃. Results of the iodine desorption test revealed that the new adsorbent could be effectively used at 750 ℃. The characteristic powder X-ray diffraction, nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherm,X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis-differential scanning calorimetry data indicated that the enhanced adsorption ability at high temperatures was attributed to the formation of a solid solution between silver iodide and Ag_3 PO_4.

文摘Ionic liquid modified silica nanoparticles were synthesized using a simple silane chemistry,followed by substitution reaction. The phenol adsorption performance was tested using temperature programmed desorption technique. The experimental results reveal that the introduction of ionic liquids on the surface of silica nanoparticles can improve the adsorption capacity of phenol compared to the pure silica nanoparticles.The initial adsorption capacity reaches 0.312 mmol·g^-1 at 25 ℃ under total pressure of 0.2 bar and it decreases slightly in the following adsorption-desorption cycles. The results demonstrate that introduction of ionic liquids can improve the phenol adsorption capacity and the simple material preparation process is feasible for industrial applications.

文摘The non-aqueous solid-liquid biphasic solvent of 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol(AMP)/piperazine(PZ)/dipropylene glycol dimethyl ether(DME)features a high CO_(2)absorption loading,favorable phase separation behavior and high regeneration efficiency.Different with the liquid-liquid phase change solvent,the reaction kinetics of CO_(2)capture into solid-liquid biphasic solvent was rarely studied.In the present work,the reaction kinetics of CO_(2)absorption into AMP/PZ/DME solid-liquid biphasic solvent was investigated into the double stirred kettle reactor.The absorption reaction followed a pseudo-first-order kinetic model according to the zwitterion mechanism.The overall reaction rate constant(kov)and the enhancement factor(E)of CO_(2)absorption both increased with increasing temperature.The total mass transfer resistance of the absorbent decreased with increasing temperature and increased with increasing absorption loading,so the higher reaction temperature was conducive to the absorption,and the liquid phase mass transfer resistance was the main factor affecting the absorption rate.

文摘Adsorption properties of an adsorbent or a catalyst towards adsorbates are crucial in the process of adsorption separation or catalytic reaction. Surface morphology and structure of adsorbents have a significant impact on the adsorption properties. In this study, a novel acidic ionic liquid, 1-butyl-3-(triethoxysilylpropyl)imidazolium hydrogen sulfate(i.e., [BTPIm][HSO_4]), was synthesized and subsequently grafted onto the MCM-36 zeolite for the regulation of its adsorption properties towards isobutane and 1-butene. The resultant [BTPIm][HSO_4]-immobilized MCM-36(i.e., MCM-36-IL) was characterized by FT-IR, XPS, XRD, SEM, TG/DTG and N_2 adsorption–desorption measurement. It was found that the specific surface area, micropore volume and mesopore volume of the MCM-36 support underwent a reduction upon the immobilization of ionic liquid,while the surface density of acid increased from 0.0014 to 0.0035 mmol·m^(-2). The adsorption capacity of isobutane and 1-butene on the MCM-36-IL was determined by a static volumetric method. Results demonstrated that the interaction between isobutane and MCM-36-IL was enhanced and the interaction between 1-butene and MCM-36-IL was reduced. As a result, a tunable adsorption ratio of isobutane/1-butene on MCM-36 was achieved.With the increase in surface density of acid and the tunable adsorption ratio of isobutane and 1-butene on the functionalized MCM-36, the acidic ionic liquid-immobilized zeolites are beneficial to obtain an improved reaction yield and a prolonged catalyst life in the reactions catalyzed by solid acid.

文摘A novel biomimetic protein-resistant modifier based on cellulose-based polymeric liquid crystals was described（PLCs）. Two types of PLCs of propyl hydroxypropyl cellulose ester（PPC） and octyl hydroxypropyl cellulose ester（OPC） were prepared by esterification from hydroxypropyl cellulose, and then were mixed with polyvinyl chloride and polyurethane to obtain composite films by solution casting, respectively. The surface morphology of PLCs and their composite films were characterized by polarized optical microscopy（POM） and scanning electron microscopy（SEM）, suggesting the existence of microdomain separation with fingerprint texture in PLC composite films. Water contact angle measurement results indicated that hydrophilicity of PLC/polymer composite films was dependent on the type and content of PLC as well as the type of matrix due to their interaction. Using bovine serum albumin（BSA） as a model protein, protein adsorption results revealed that PLCs with protein-resistant property can obviously suppress protein adsorption on their composite films, probably due to their flexible LC state. Moreover, all PLCs and their composites exhibited non-toxicity by MTT assay, suggesting their safety for biomedical applications.

文摘The adsorption ratio of isobutane/1-butene on the catalyst surface is one of the most important factors for the C4 alkylation process. Regulation of isobutane/1-butene adsorption ratio on the zeolite-supported acid catalyst is a big challenge for catalyst preparation. To regulate the isobutane/1-butene adsorption ratio, four types of ionic liquid （i.e., IL） with different alkyl chain lengths and different acid group numbers were synthesized and were subsequently immobilized onto the MCM-22 zeolite. The as-synthesized IL-immobilized MCM-22 （i.e., MCM-22-IL） was characterized by FT1R, TGA, BET, XPS and XRD, and their adsorption capacities and adsorption molar ratios of isobutane to l-butene （I/O） were investigated to correlate with surface features of MCM-22-IL Results showed that the immobilization of ILs led to a decrease of specific surface area and pore volume. But the surface density of acid groups was increased and the adsorption molar ratio of isobutane/1-butene （I/O） was significantly im- proved by the immobilization of ionic liquids. The adsorption molar ratio of I/O is substantially improved from 0.75 to above 0.9 at 300 kPa upon immobilizing ILs. Although the alkyl chain length oflLs was found to have little effect on the adsorption molar ratio of I/O, the increase of acid group numbers led to a dramatic decrease in the adsorption I/O ratio. The results illustrated that immobilizing ionic liquids is an effective way to modify the textural, chemical and morphological properties of MCM-22. Accordingly, the immobilization of ionic liquids provides a novel and a feasible way to regulate the adsorption I/O ratio on an adsorbent or a solid catalyst.
文摘Solid-solid surface adsorption of Eu2O3 on amorphous Al2O3 have been investigated by Mossbauer spectroscopy, X- ray diffraction analysis and laser Raman spectra (LRS). No X-ray diffraction peak of crystalline Eu2O3 can be found for all samples studied. The LRS show that two peaks at 998 and 1051 cm-1 assigned to two-dimensional surface europium-oxygen species appear at Eu2O3 content of 18.7 wt%. The peak at 1068 cm-1 due to the surface species and another peak at 342cm-1 due to crystalline Eu2O3 content start to appear for the sample with an Eu2O3 content of 36.5 wt%. The dispersity of Eu2O3 on the surface of amorphous Al2O3 were compared with that of α-Al2O3,η-Al2O3 and SiO2 gel. The results of these studies indicate that the structure of Eu2O3 dispersed onto the support surface depend on the structure of support and that there is an inductive effect of support on the structure of the Eu2O3.

文摘Solid polymer electrolytes(SPEs)have attracted much attention for their safety,ease of packaging,costeffectiveness,excellent flexibility and stability.Poly-dioxolane(PDOL)is one of the most promising matrix materials of SPEs due to its remarkable compatibility with lithium metal anodes(LMAs)and suitability for in-situ polymerization.However,poor thermal stability,insufficient ionic conductivity and narrow electrochemical stability window(ESW)hinder its further application in lithium metal batteries(LMBs).To ameliorate these problems,we have successfully synthesized a polymerized-ionic-liquid(PIL)monomer named DIMTFSI by modifying DOL with imidazolium cation coupled with TFSI^(-)anion,which simultaneously inherits the lipophilicity of DOL,high ionic conductivity of imidazole,and excellent stability of PILs.Then the tridentate crosslinker trimethylolpropane tris[3-(2-methyl-1-aziridine)propionate](TTMAP)was introduced to regulate the excessive Li^(+)-O coordination and prepare a flame-retardant SPE(DT-SPE)with prominent thermal stability,wide ESW,high ionic conductivity and abundant Lit transference numbers(t_(Li+)).As a result,the LiFePO_(4)|DT-SPE|Li cell exhibits a high initial discharge specific capacity of 149.60 mAh g^(-1)at 0.2C and 30℃with a capacity retention rate of 98.68%after 500 cycles.This work provides new insights into the structural design of PIL-based electrolytes for long-cycling LMBs with high safety and stability.

文摘Solid adsorption system, one of alternative refrigeration systems, is utilized to provide cold for refrigerator or air-conditioner and can be operated by assistance of solar heat. System performance study through computer usage to develop simulation program and simulate behaviors of system operation can give designed system which suits for user’s need. Also, the present study aims to develop dynamic simulation program of solid adsorption refrigeration system operated by solar assistance to simulate behaviors of system operation and its performance. Flat plate collectror is utilized to provide thermal energy for system’s adsorber and activated carbon/methanol is used to be a suitable working pair. Simulation procedure starts with various solar radiation intensities as input energy on solar collector and water is used as collector working fluid. Behavior of system operation can be considered to be 4 steps as isosteric heating, isobaric desorption, isosteric cooling and isobaric adsorption, respectively. This research studies the effect of varying solar radiation intensity on temperature, pressure of adsorber, adsorption ratio at each steps of system operated ranging from 6:00 am (the first day) to 6:00 am (the next day) and system performance which is defined as coefficient of performance, COP. In addition, the simulation result shows monthly average COP of 0.43 compared to a result of another previous research work under the same operating condition and the percentage error is 7.5%.

文摘Nano porous polymer film with a hexagonal colum nar(Coln)structure was fabricated by templated hydroge n-bonding discotic liquid crystals containing methacrylate functional group.The supramolecular hydrogen-bonded complex T3Ph-L is composed of a 1,3/5-tris(1Hbenzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)benzene(T3Ph)core molecule as the hydrogen-bonding acceptor and 3,4,5-tris((11-(methacryloyloxy)undecyl)oxy)benzoic acid(L)peripheral molecules as donors.And the Colh structure is always retained after self-assembly,photo-crosslinking,and removal of the template T3Ph.The nanoporous polymer film can retain the Colh phase even under the dry condition,which indicates more possibilities for practical applicati ons.After chemical modificati on of the inner wall of the nano pores,the nan oporous polymer film with pores of about 1 nm selectively adsorbs ionic dyes,and the adsorption process is spontaneous and exothermic in nature.Homeotropic alignment can be obtained when the blend complex was sandwiched between two modified glasses after annealing by slow cooling,which shows that the nanoporous polymer film has potential in applications such as nanofiltration.
