The magnetic Fe_3O_4 colloidal nanocrystal clusters（CNCs） as nano-core were modified with a silica coating for improvement stability and superficial area of the Au-Cu particles. The morphological structure and chemical composition of the Fe_3O_4@SiO_2-Au/Cu NPs were characterized with high-resolution transmission electron microscopy（HRTEM）, energy-dispersive X-ray（EDX） and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy（XPS） analyses. The Au and Cu NPs were deposited on the SiO_2 surface in a highly dense and well dispersed manner with an average size of approximately 5 nm. The Fe_3O_4@SiO_2-Au/Cu NPs as magnetic nano-catalysts were applied to the Ullmann coupling reaction of bromamine acid to synthesize 4,40-diamino-1,10-dianthraquinonyl-3,30-disulfonic acid（DAS）. The prepared Fe_3O_4@SiO_2-Au/Cu NPs exhibited efficient catalytic activity with higher conversion and selectivity. A bromamine acid conversion of 97.35% and selectivity for DAS of 88.67% were obtained in aqueous medium. The magnetic nano-catalysts can be readily separated from the reaction system and reused. This new nano-catalytic reaction represents a useful and attractive cleaner production system. The new catalyst system has important and potential applications in dye and pigment industry.展开更多

Then, the Fe3O4 nanoparticles and Fe3O4@SiO2 composite nanoparticles were characterized by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectra, scanning electron microscope (SEM) and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). Recently, the studies focus on how to improve the dispersion of composite particle and achieve good magnetic performance. Hence effects of the volume ratio of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and magnetite colloid on the structural, morphological and magnetic properties of the composite nanoparticles were systematically investi-gated. The results revealed that the Fe3O4@SiO2 had better thermal stability and dispersion than the magnetite nanoparticles. Furthermore, the particle size and magnetic property of the Fe3O4@SiO2 composite nanoparticles can be adjusted by changing the volume ratio of TEOS and magnetite colloid.展开更多

X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and vibration sample magnetometry were used to characterize the TiO2/Fe3O4 particles. The photocatalytic activity of the particles was tested by degrading methyl blue solution under UV illumination （254 nm）. The results indicate that with the content of TiO2 increasing, the photocatalytic activity of the composite particles enhances, while the magnetism of the particles decreases. When the molar ratio of TiO2 to Fe3O4 is about 8, both the photocatalytic activity and magnetism of the TiO2/Fe3O4 particles are relatively high, and their photocatalytic activity remains well after repeated use.展开更多

The Fe3O4 MNPs were in nanometre scale with an average diameter of approximately 12 to 18 nm. The introduction of Fe3O4 MNPs increased levofloxacin sono-degradation in the US/H2O2 system. Experimental parameters, such as Fe3O4 MNP dose, initial solution p H, and H2O2 concentration, were investigated by a one-factor-at-a-time approach. The results showed that Fe3O4 MNPs enhanced levofloxacin removal in the p H range from 4.0 to 9.0. Levofloxacin removal ratio increased with Fe3O4 MNP dose up to 1.0 g·L-1and with H2O2 concentration until reaching the maximum. Moreover, three main intermediate compounds were identified by HPLC with electrospray ionisation tandem mass spectrometry, and a possible degradation pathway was proposed. This study suggests that combination of H2O2, Fe3O4 MNPs and US is a good way to improve the degradation efficiency of antibiotics.展开更多

The shape and structure of prepared Fe3O4@UiO-66-NH2 were characterized, and the absorbed concentration of strontium was determined through inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. The results indicated that Fe3O4 and UiO-66-NH2 combined through chemical bonding. The experimental adsorption results for separation of Sr^2＋ in aqueous solution indicated that the adsorption of Sr^2＋ to Fe3O4@UiO-66-NH2 increased drastically from pH 11 to pH 13. The adsorption isotherm model indicated that the adsorption of Sr^2＋ conformed to the Freundlich isotherm model（R2 = 0.9919）. The MMOF thus inherited the superior qualities of magnetic composites and metal organic frameworks, and can easily be separated under an external magnetic field. This MMOF thus has potential applications as a magnetic adsorbent for low level radionuclide （90）Sr.展开更多

The carboxyl groups of DHCA have a strong affinity to coordination behavior of Pb^2＋ thus inducing the transformation of Fe/Fe3O4 nanoparticles from a dispersed to an aggregated state with a corresponding decrease, then increase in transverse relaxation time（T2） of the surrounding water protons. Upon addition of the different concentrations of Pb^2＋ to an aq. solution of DHCA functionalized Fe/Fe3O4 nanoparticles（DHCA-Fe/Fe3O4 NPs）（[Fe] = 90 mmol/L）, the change of T2 values display a good linear relationship with the concentration of Pb^2＋ from 40 μmol/L to 100 μmol/L and from 130 μmol/L to 200 μmol/L, respectively. Owing to the especially strong interaction between DHCA and Pb^2＋, DHCA-Fe/Fe3O4 NPs exhibited a high selectivity over other metal ions.展开更多
