The prepared polymer was characterized by Fourier transmission infrared spectrometry, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherm. Bath experiments of Co（II） adsorption onto Co（II）-IIP were performed under the optimum conditions. The experimental data were analyzed by pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order kinetic models. It was found that the pseudo-second-order model best correlated the kinetic data. The intraparticle diffusion and liquid film diffusion were applied to discuss the adsorption mechanism. The results showed that Co（II） adsorption onto IIP was controlled by the intraparticle diffusion mechanism, along with a considerable film diffusion contribution. Langmuir, Freundlich and Dubinin-Radushkevich adsorption models were applied to determine the isotherm parameters. Langmuir model fitted the experiment data well and the maximum calculated capacity of Co（II） reached 39.26 mg/g under room temperature. The thermodynamic data were indicative of the spontaneousness of the endothermic sorption process of Co（II） onto Co（II）-IIP. Co（II）-IIP showed high affinity and selectivity for template ion compared with non imprinted polymer （NIP）.展开更多

The uptake of Cu^2＋ by SM-NZVI and the colloidal stability of the Cu-bearing SM-NZVI were examined in batch tests. The results showed that NZVI coated with different modifiers exhibited different affinities for Cu^2＋, which resulted in varying colloidal stability of different SM-NZVI in the presence of Cu^2＋. The presence of Cu^2＋ exerted a slight influence on the aggregation and settling of NZVI modified with PAA or Tween-20. However, the presence of Cu^2＋caused significant aggregation and sedimentation of starch-modified NZVI, which is due to Cu^2＋complexation with the starch molecules coated on the surface of the particles. Column experiments were conducted to investigate the co-transport of Cu^2＋ in association with SM-NZVI in water-saturated quartz sand. It was presumed that a physical straining mechanism accounted for the retention of Cu-bearing SM-NZVI in the porous media. Moreover, the enhanced aggregation of SM-NZVI in the presence of Cu^2＋ may be contributing to this straining effect.展开更多

The irradiation induced atomic displacement damage was analyzed by TRIM code. Changes in the mechanical properties and fracture behavior caused by the ion irradiation and the effects of subsequent annealing were studied. The distribution of micro-indentation depth as a function of the indentation position from the irradiated surface to the specimen interior was also examined. The occurrence of compressive residual stresses and increases in hardness and fracture toughness were found in the as-irradiated surface region of the specimen. The subsequent annealing revealed that these quantities were decreased gradually with raising the annealing temperature. Probable causes of the generation of the residual stress and the changes in mechanical properties and fracture mode due to the irradiation are discussed.展开更多

The potential profile is derived analytically by using a plasma-sheath equation, where negative ions produced on the plasma grid （PG） surface are considered in addition to positive ions and electrons. The potential profile depends on the amount and the temperature of the surface produced negative ions and the profile of the magnetic field. The negative potential peak is formed in the sheath region near the PG surface for the case of strong surface production of negative ions or low temperature negative ions. As the increase rate of the magnetic field near the wall becomes large, the negative potential peak becomes small.展开更多

It is experimentally revealed that under irradiation of IPIB pulses, the surface morphology of titanium alloy in a spatial scale of μm exhibits an obvious smoothening trend. The mechanism of this phenomenon is explained by the mass transfer caused by the surface tension of molten metal. Hydrodynamic simulation with a combination of the finite element method and the level set method reveals that the change in curvature on the molten surface leads to uneven distribution of surface tension. Mass transfer is caused by the relief of surface tension, and meanwhile a flattening trend in the surface morphology evolution is achieved.展开更多

A p H value of the metal solutions at 6.0 was beneficial to the high adsorption quantity of the biosorbent. The optimal mass ratio of the biosorbent to metal ions was found to be 2. A higher adsorption quantity of the biosorbent was achieved by keeping the reaction temperature below 55°C. Response surface methodology was applied to optimize the biosorption processes, and the developed mathematical equations showed high determination coefficients（above 0.99 for both metal ions） and insignificant lack of fit（p = 0.0838 and 0.0782 for Pb2＋and Zn2＋, respectively）. Atomic force microscopy analyses suggested that the metal elements were adsorbed onto the biosorbent surface via electrostatic interaction. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analyses indicated the presence of complexation（between –NH2,-CN and metal ions） and ion-exchange（between –COOH and metal ions）. The adsorption mechanisms could be the combined action of electrostatic interaction, complexation and ion-exchange between functional groups and metal ions.展开更多

The uptake of Cu^2＋ by SM-NZVI and the colloidal stability of the Cu-bearing SM-NZVI were examined in batch tests.

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analyses indicated the presence of complexation（between –NH2,-CN and metal ions） and ion-exchange（between –COOH and metal ions）. The adsorption mechanisms could be the combined action of electrostatic interaction, complexation and ion-exchange between functional groups and metal ions.
文摘K9 glass is a common material of optics and micro system, with cheaper price and better processing function. With the development of the optical and micro system, the technique of manufacturing micron/nanometer dimensions microstructure and micro device on K9 glass has used in photoelectron, microwave and diffraction optics device et al The coarse surface of optics and microwave device can cause the light scattering and signal losing, and the function of device reduced. So the supersmooth surface plays an important role in optic and microwave device.

文摘Hydrogen peroxide(H_(2)O_(2))is extensively used in medical disinfection,water treatment,and environmental protection.To achieve the green synthesis of H_(2)O_(2),g-C_(3)N_(4)-based photocatalysis is an effective strategy and shows great potential.Nonetheless,single g-C_(3)N_(4)exhibits poor photocatalytic properties due to severe photogenerated charge recombination.To solve this challenge,this work enables F^(−)adsorption on the surface of g-C_(3)N_(4)nanotubes in solution driven by Coulomb forces through pH adjustment and the addition of NH4F.The photocatalytic H_(2)O_(2)production rate of the optimal F^(−)-decorated g-C_(3)N_(4)is three times higher than that of pure g-C_(3)N_(4),attributing to the synergistic effect of F^(−)and H^(+).Quenching experiments verify that the photocatalytic H_(2)O_(2)production process of CNF is a two-electron oxygen reduction process.Electron quenching dynamics of g-C_(3)N_(4)and CNF are revealed by femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy(fs-TAS).Compared to pure g-C_(3)N_(4),CNF has an additional ultrashort lifetime(3.1 ps)representing the interfacial electron transfer from the conduction band of g-C_(3)N_(4)to F^(−).In situ fs-TAS results show that the interfacial electron transfer rate and electron utilization efficiency are respectively increased from 1.5×10^(8)s^(–1)and 19%in air to 5.0×10^(8)s^(-1)and 45%in O_(2) atmosphere with ethanol sacrificial agent.Hence,the O_(2),H^(+),and photogenerated electrons are key substances in the H_(2)O_(2)evolution.This work has elucidated the dynamics mechanism of enhanced photocatalytic performance of F^(−)-modified g-C_(3)N_(4)and provides inspiration for the design and synthesis of efficient g-C_(3)N_(4)-based photocatalysts.
