Removal Of Arsenic

We report the synthesis of three-dimensional Fe3O4/graphene aerogels (GAs) and their application for the removal of arsenic (As) ions from water. The morphology and properties of Fe3O4/GAs have been characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and superconducting quantum inference device. The 3D nanostructure shows that iron oxide nanoparticles are decorated on graphene with an interconnected network structure. It is found that Fe3O4/GAs own a capacity of As(V) ions adsorption up to 40.048 mg/g due to their remarkable 3D structure and existence of magnetic Fe3O4nanoparticles for separation. The adsorption isotherm matches well with the Langmuir model and kinetic analysis suggests that the adsorption process is pseudo-second-ordered. In addition to the excellent adsorption capability, Fe3O4/GAs can be easily and effectively separated from water, indicating potential applications in water treatment.

A novel nanomaterial composed of copper and carbon nanofibers (CuCNFs) decorated with Ag-doped TiO2 (Ag–TiO[Formula: see text] nanoparticles was prepared through electrospinning, carbonization and solvothermal treatment. The composites were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The obtained composites were mixed with laccase and Nafion to construct novel hydroquinone biosensor. The electrochemical behavior of the novel biosensor was studied using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and chronoamperometry. The results demonstrated that the biosensor possessed a wide detection linear range (1.20–176.50[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]M), a good selectivity, repeatability, reproducibility and storage stability. This work provides a new material to design more efficient laccase (Lac) based biosensor for hydroquinone detection.

Large Pore Size

Pure KIT-5 and a series of Al-KT-X materials modified by different amounts of aluminum were synthesized by a direct hydrothermal method and acted as supports for the catalysts of a quinoline hydrodenitrification reaction with the NiW active phases supported. The results of X-ray diffraction (XRD), N2 isotherm absorption-desorption, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) for the supports indicated that Al species were embedded into the framework of the KIT-5 materials with a large pore size, pore volume, and specific surface area. The Pyridine-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (Py-IR) result of the catalysts demonstrated that the addition of aluminum atoms enhanced the acidity of the catalysts. The results of the high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS) characterizations for the sulfide catalysts indicated that the embedded Al species could facilitate the dispersion of active metals and the formation of the active phases. Among all the catalysts, NiW/Al-KT-40 showed the maximal hydrodenitrogenation conversion (HDNC) due to its open three-dimensional pore structure, appropriate acidity, and good dispersion of active metals.

Determination of the mass concentration of quartz in small biopsy specimens for clinical diagnostic purposes often cannot be performed by x-ray diffraction and light microscopy. A technique utilizing transmission electron microscopy (TEM) was used to determine the quartz concentration in a human lung specimen taken from a patient suspected of having silicosis.The sample was prepared for examination by low temperature incineration in an oxygen plasma. The inorganic residue was suspended in 0.5 percent Parlodion in amyl acetate. Grids were coated with the sample suspension and subsequently shadowed with a thin film of carbon. Standard quartz particles were prepared in a similar manner.

AbstractMore than 100 minerals have been reported from the Silver Coin Mine, Nevada USA; five new minerals have been discovered here, due to the unusual geochemical environment. The present study reports on the investigation of a greenish clayey sample from the Silver Coin Mine. After the separation of a fine fraction to enrich the clay minerals, sauconite, a rare Zn-rich smectite, was found by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and was further characterized by differential thermal analysis (DTA), infrared (IR) spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The Zn-rich smectite is accompanied by illite, minor kaolinite/halloysite and traces of gibbsite (as was indicated by the IR spectroscopy). The occurrence indicates an acidic environment probably caused by oxidation of sulfides.The determination of the structural formula, to further characterize the Zn-rich smectite, was difficult because of the multi-clay mineral assembly. However, different SEM-EDX (energy dispersive X-ray) approaches as well as transmission electron microscopy (TEM)-EDX analysis helped to characterize the smectite as Al-rich sauconite with some exchangeable K+.

ABSTRACTExperimental photoluminescence spectra of GaAs microcrystals show pronounced variations compared to the luminescence of bulk GaAs. The observed spectra are explained by spectral enhancement and inhibition of spontaneous emission in a three-dimensional optical resonator formed by a dielectrically confined semiconductor microcrystal. The crystals were produced by pulverization of bulk GaAs, size-separated by sedimentation techniques, and characterized by transmission electron microscopy, electron diffraction and x-ray diffraction.

AbstractThe facile synthesis of three-dimensional macroporous arrays of titania, zirconia and alumina was recently reported [1]. The synthesis of these materials has now been extended to the oxides of iron, tungsten, and antimony, as well as a mixed yttrium-zirconium system and organically modi- fied silicates. These materials were characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), selected area electron diffraction (SAED), X-ray energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS), and powder X-ray diffraction (XRD). Ordered structures of iron, tungsten, and antimony were formed from alkoxide precursors as in the originally reported synthesis, but the template was removed at a lower temperature. Samples of vinyl- and 2-cyanoethyl-modified silicates were formed from a mixture of organotrialkoxysilane and tetraalkoxysilane precursors; the polystyrene template was removed by extraction with a THF/acetone mixture. These results show the ease of extending the original syn- thesis to a wide range of systems. Also, the ability to form homogenous mixed-metal oxides will be important for tailoring the dielectric and photonic properties of these materials.
