Abstract:The catalyst nanosized TiO2 was synthesized in the EbCDAB/ n-hexanol / water microemulsion .The structure and surface morphology was characterized by TG, XRD, FI-TR, and TEM methods. The photocatalytic degradation of methyl orange was used as a probe reaction to evaluate their photocatalytic activities using UV-light irradiation comparing with P25.The results indicated that compared with TiO2 synthesized in the CTAB microemulsion, these samples possessed smaller particle size, higher thermal stability and crystal stability. It was also found that the anatase phase can be maintained quite well even after calcination at 700 ℃.In additional,the photocatalytic activities for these samples had better photoactivity than P25.The smallest size particles and the highest photocatalytic activity was obtained when the mass ratio of n-hexanol to EbCDAB was 6:3.Under optimum condition, 82.6% decolorization of methyl orange could be achieved within 60 min UV irradiation.

Abstract:The powders of Li4/3Ti5/3O4/Ag composite were prepared by sol-gel technique. Phase identification, surface morphology and electrochemical properties were studied by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, galvanostatic charge-discharge experiments, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The results show that the Ti-O band is not affected by the addditive of Ag. Li4/3Ti5/3O4/Ag and Li4/3Ti5/3O4 have very similar crystal lattice parameters. Ag does not enter the Li4/3Ti5/3O4 crystal and disperses homogeneously in Li4/3Ti5/3O4 particles. Compared with Li4/3Ti5/3O4, Li4/3Ti5/3O4/Ag composite has higher specific capacity, higher columbic efficiency and lower polarization. The additive of Ag have little effect on the lithium ion diffusion of Li4/3Ti5/3O4. The capacity loss of Li4/3Ti5/3O4/Ag is smaller than that of i4/3Ti5/3O4 during cycling. The additive of Ag greatly improves the cycleability of Li4/3Ti5/3O4 powders, especially at higher charge-discharge rate.

Abstract:Attapulgite clay(ATP) from Xuyi was purified by a wet method then treated with NaOH and 1 mol/L,2 mol/L and 3 mol/L solutions of HCl. Transmission electron microscope(TEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were used to characterize the ATPs of different treated methods, and then specific surface, pore volume and Zeta potential were deteremined as well. Results showed that wet purification could remove most of impurities without destroy composition and fiber structure of ATP. Treatment of 3 mol/L hydrochloric acid could dissolve some element of ATP so much as form SiO2 and destroy fiber structure to clips. Adsorption experiments of 0.01 mol/L Fe3 , Ni2 and Cr2O72- on ATP removed from aqueous solutions were done. Absorbents were original ATP, purified ATP or ATP treated with sodium hydroxide, 1 mol/L,2 mol/L and 3 mol/L solutions of hydrochloric acid. Influences of treatment methods and kinds of ion on adsorptive ratio were studied. The results showed that Fe3 and Ni2 had higher adsorptive ratio on ATP than Cr2O72- , and adsorptive ratios had close relationship to Zeta potenial of ATP.

Abstract:Two binary complexes Eu(AA)3,Eu(MA)3 and two ternary complexes Eu(AA)3Phen, Eu(MA)3Phen were synthesized by the reaction of Eu2O3 with acrylic acid (HAA), methacrylic acid (HMA) and 1,10-phenanthroline(phen).The four complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, fluorescence and thermal analysis. It shows that the complexes have excellent thermal stability and fluorescence intensity. The ternary complexes have a significant increase in the luminous intensity compared to the binary complexes. The copolymers emit characteristic fluorescence of Eu3 and the fluorescence intensities increase with the increase of the concentration of the complexes in the copolymers. At the same time, there is no concentration quenching. The copolymers copolymerized with binary complexes have stronger luminous intensity than the copolymers copolymerized with ternary complexes under maximum solubility because the solubility of the ternary complexes in the mixture of MMA and HMA are less than the binary complexes.

Abstract:An amphiphilic N-octyl-O-poly (ethylene glycol) chitosan was prepared by grafting successively octyl groups onto amino groups at C-2 position as hydrophobic moieties and polyethylene glycol (PEG) groups onto hydroxyl groups at C-6, C-3 as hydrophilic ones. A certain amount of –NH2 was retained in the structure of chitosan derivatives through protection by phthalic anhydride. The chemical structures and degree of N- and O-substitution of chitosan derivatives were characterized by FT-IR, 1HNMR and elemental analysis, respectively. The amphiphilic property for convenient self-assembly and the preserved –NH2 groups for progressive chemical cross-linking make the resultant N-ocyl-O-PEG chitosan soluble in water and potentially applicable in preparing stable chitosan hollow microspheres as drug-carriers.

Abstract:The HDI trimer (HT) modified aqueous polyurethane dispersions(HPUD) were synthesized and the effects of the contents of HT on the water- and solvent-resistance, the degree of crosslinking, hardness, gloss and surface drying time of the HPUD films were discussed. The particle sizes and its distributions, structures and thermal stability of HPUDs and its film were characterized by dynamic light-scattering technique (DLS), infrared spectra (IR) and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), respectively. The results show that introducing 5–10 wt% of HT into PUD improve surface dry rate and crosslinking degree of HPUD films, the HPUD films with 10% HT possess better performance including 45 min of the surface drying time, 80% of the crosslinking degree, 78% and 7% of the alcohol- and water-absorption rate. On the other hand, HPUDs display faster film hardness increasing rates and slightly lower final films hardness than those of the common PUDs without HT modification. DLS analysis results show that the particle sizes and its distributions increase and storage stability decrease with increasing the HT content in the HPUD up to 20% during the storage process. TGA curves indicate that the HPUD films possess good thermal stability.

Abstract:A series of supported MoO3 catalysts were prepared by an equivalent-volumetic impregnation method with MoO3 loadings ranging from 1 to 30 wt%, with SiO2 and Al2O3 as the carrier. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), specific surface area measurements (BET), temperature-programmed desorption (NH3-TPD). The catalytic esterification of acetic acid with ethanol was carried out in a three-neck flask at 90-100℃.The results clearly revealed that MoO3/SiO2 and MoO3/Al2O3 catalysts were active and selective towards the formation of ethyl acetate. The MoO3/SiO2 catalyst containing 5 wt% MoO3 was the most active and selective one. The results emphasize the importance of the porous structure together with the weak acidic sites of the prepared catalyst towards ester formation.

Abstract:The synthesis of 1, 2-propanediol by selective hydrogenolysis of glycerol over the Cu-H4SiW12O40/γ-Al2O3 catalysts in a fixed-bed reactor was investigation. It was found that lower liquid hourly space velocity may promote the glycerol conversion but reduce the selectivity of 1, 2-propanediol. The loading of H4SiW12O40 on the catalyst exhibited a significant on glycerol conversion and a maximum glycerol conversion was obtained at the H4SiW12O40 loading of 5%. NH3-TPD and H2-TPR suggested that Cu-H4SiW12O40/γ-Al2O3 acted as a bi-functional catalyst in the reaction: glycerol dehydration to dehydrated intermediates over H4SiW12O40/γ-Al2O3 and the following hydrogenation over Cu.
