The Mn3+, Zr4+, Ti4+and Pb4+cations are incorporated into the lattice of tetragonal rutile SnO2 to form a solid solution structure. As a consequence, the surface area and thermal stability of the catalysts are improved. Moreover, the oxygen species of the modified catalysts become easier to be reduced. Therefore, the oxidation activity over the catalysts was improved, except for the one modified by Pb oxide. Manganese oxide demonstrates the best promotional effects for SnO2. Using an X‐ray diffraction extrapolation method, the lattice capacity of SnO2 for Mn2O3 was 0.135 g Mn2O3/g SnO2, which indicates that to form stable solid solution, only 21%Sn4+cations in the lattice can be maximally replaced by Mn3+. If the amount of Mn3+cations is over the capacity, Mn2O3 will be formed, which is not favorable for the activity of the catalysts. The Sn rich samples with only Sn‐Mn solid solution phase show higher activity than the ones with excess Mn2O3 species.展开更多

In addition, the (1010)and (0002) pole figures were measured, and the tensile test was performed to reveal the influence of rolling temperature on mechanical properties. The results show that the microstrucmre of ZK60 alloy sheet consisted of fibrous structure with elongated grains, and shear bands along the rolling direction after warm rolling. Dynamic recrystallization could be found during the warm rolling process at rolling temperature 350℃ and above. And many fine recrystallized grain could be observed in the shear bands area. It is a little difficult to see the recrystallized grain in the sheet warm rolled at 300℃ because of higher density of shear bands. The warm rolled ZK60 alloy sheet exhibited strong (0002) pole texture, the intensity of (0002) pole figure decreases with the increasing of rolling temperature and the basal pole tilted slightly to the transverse direction after warm rolling.展开更多

Absorption range and band gap energy, which are respon- sible for the observed photocatalyst behavior, were investigated by UV/vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) for pure and silver oxide loaded BiV04. Pbotocatalytic properties of the prepared samples were examined by studying the degradation of the methyl orange. When using NaCI02 as an electron acceptor, the possible photocatalytic mech- anism has been discussed by photocatalytic reactions. With the help of electron acceptor, the results show clearly that the BiV04 loaded silver oxide exhibited superior photocatalytic activity in simulated dye wastewater treatment.展开更多

In this work, we describe the process immobilization of galactose oxidase on ZnO nanorods surface with glutaraldehyde as a cross-linker molecule to make the working electrode in electrochemical biosensor. ZnO nanorods were grown on FTO (Fluorine-doped tin oxide) substrate by solution method at low temperature. The crystalline phase and orientation of ZnO nanorods were identified using X-ray diffraction. The efficiency of the immobilization was calculated by Braford method showed that about 36% enzyme content was immobilized on ZnO nanorods surface. The working electrode based on the immobilized ZnO nanorods was tested in galactose solution by CV (cyclic voltammetry) method indicated the value of current intensity is about 0.14 μA. These results clearly demonstrate the potential of galactose sensor based on ZnO nanorod.展开更多

XRD spectra of coal shows (002)-band and γ-band, and based on fitting calculation and multi-peak separation methods, the values of 2θ002 and 2θγ can be obtained, as well as corresponding intensities I002 and Iγ, consequently the coal rank can be quantized as the ratio of I002 and Iγ, that is coal rank=I002/Iγ. The research shows that the values of θ002 and θγ increase with the metamorphic grade, and a very good linear positive correlation exists between calculated Coal Rank and Ro.展开更多

Some of the physical properties, such as lattice parameters, crystal structure and x-rays data of CdSxSe1-x alloys were determined using x-ray diffractometry. X-ray diffractometry has shown that CdS-CdSe mixed crystals had the wurtzite structure for all compositions between CdS and CdSe. The lattice parameters (both a and c) were found to show a linear dependence with composition. The dependence of the lattice parameters of a and c on composition can be expressed as: a(x) = 4.165 + 0.16x; c(x) = 6.713 + 0.27x. The variation of band gap with composition was determined for these samples from optical absorption measurements, which showed that the band gap varied smoothly and monotonically, but not linearly over the composition range typical results were found between 2.42-1.74 eV at room temperature.展开更多

The samples were charac- terized and analyzed by XRD, SEM, FTIR and zeta potential measurements. The products were modified with different sur- factants to improve their dispersion stability, both the amount and the best zeta potential values of which were identified in this work. The surface-modified nano-particles were added at a mass fraction of 1.0%, 2.0%, 3.0%, and 4.0%, respectively, into the base oil. It was showed that the additive in base oil has good oil solubility without detectable corrosion of copper stripe, and had excellent behavior in terms of anti-wear performance and lower friction coefficient.展开更多

Some complex inorganic oxides are known that they may be promising color materials (absorbing visible light of certain wavelengths region) having potential application for environmentally benign catalysts, for example, photocatalysts. Chiral copper(Ⅱ) complexes having bidentate amine ligands ([CuL2]2+) can be acted as cationic building blocks of bimetallic metal complexes. We have prepared some chiral bimetallic complexes with various anionic metal complexes such as [PtCl4]2-, [M02O7]2 and Mn12 clusters (typical single-molecule magnets) which characterized by means of solid-state electronic and CD (circular dichroism) spectra, IR (infrared) spectra, synchrotron XRD (X-ray diffraction) and XAS (soft X-ray absorption spectroscopy). By sintering these precursor chiral bimetallic complexes, we have prepared complex inorganic oxides from them. The IR spectra indicated substituting metal-ligand bonds and losing organic moieties. The XRD pattern indicated complete changes of crystal structures. The XAS revealed replacing coordination atoms as well as oxidation of valences of metal ions. Furthermore, we will also investigate possibility of patterning by homogeneous precipitation method as bimetallic complexes to prepare desirable complex inorganic oxides.展开更多

The effects of final crystallization temperature, crystallization time, stirring speed, crystallization frequency and other factors on the purity were investigated. The appropriate operating condition was that the final crystallization temperature and time were 5 ℃ and 10 h respectively under a low-speed stirring for crystallizing twice, which would make the purity and yield of boric acid reach 99.94% and 95.36%, respectively. Taking this as foundation, recrystallization process was optimized with acetone as anti-solvent, whose amount was the most important index. The boric acid solution was added into acetone and recrystallized under the same condition, and the purity and yield of boric acid would reach 99.98% and 99.61%, respectively. The product detected by XRD was confirmed as boric acid crystal. Main ion concentration in the product was detected by ICP, which basically met the national standard of high purity. Crystal morphology of boric acid was observed by SEM.展开更多
