Highly dispersed crystalline Ru nanoparticles (NPs) were successfully immobilized inside the pores of MIL-101 by a double solvents method (DSM). HRTEM clearly demonstrated the uniform distribution of the ultrafine Ru NPs throughout the interior cavities of MIL-101. The synthesized Ru@MIL-101 catalyst was also characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), N2adsorption desorption, and ICP-AES. The catalytic test indicated that the Ru NPs supported MIL-101 material exhibited exceedingly high activity and excellent durability for hydrogen generation from the catalytic hydrolysis of amine boranes.

In this paper, CoO[Formula: see text]Co2P composite nanocatalysts as highly active catalysts were successfully prepared for catalytic hydrolysis of sodium borohydride (NaBH[Formula: see text] to generate hydrogen. For catalyst preparation, pre-synthesized Co(OH)2 nanosheets were uniformly mixed with sodium hypophosphite (NaH2PO[Formula: see text] and then treated through vapor-phase phosphorization process. For characterization, field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), N2 adsorption–desorption measurement and X-ray photoelectric spectroscopy (XPS) were carried out, and traditional water-displacement method was performed to measure the hydrogen generation rate (HGR). It was found that component and catalytic activity of the composites were greatly affected by the ratio of Co(OH)2 to NaH2PO2. When the ratio was 2:1, the obtained catalyst composed of CoO and Co2P presented the highest HGR up to 3.94[Formula: see text]L min[Formula: see text] g[Formula: see text] using a 2[Formula: see text]wt.% NaBH[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]wt.% NaOH solution at [Formula: see text]C, and the apparent activation energy was detected as low as 27.4[Formula: see text]kJ mol[Formula: see text]. Additionally, the optimum CoO[Formula: see text]Co2P catalyst still retains 60% of the initial activity after recycling four times.

As promising hydrogen carriers, sodium borohydride (SB) and ammonia borane (AB) can controllably release pure hydrogen by means of catalytic hydrolysis at mild condition. In this work, we introduced a novel and facile method for transformation of commercial nickel foam (NF) to highly active 3D porous Ni–Zn catalyst. The method consisted of three steps including electroplating zinc on NF, alloying treatment and chemical etching. Catalyst microstructure and component were characterized by field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Hydrogen generation measurement indicates that the prepared Ni–Zn catalyst is highly efficient for catalytic hydrolysis of SB and AB to generate hydrogen. Moreover, recycling performance of the catalyst was also investigated.

In this paper, KIT: Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology No. 6 (KIT-6) and MCM: Mobil Composition of Matter No. 48 (MCM-48) mesoporous silica templates were prepared by wrapping Pluronic (P123) and Cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB). Mesoporous Co3O4 geometry tailored KIT-6 and MCM-48 with different porosity were synthesized via reflux technique. Crystal geometry, morphology, molecular vibrations and pore structure were analyzed by X-Ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) method based N2 adsorption–desorption for the modified materials. As expected, MCM-48 micropore-dominated electrode exhibited higher specific capacitance (442.5 F/g) which is much superior to that of KIT-6 (88.9 F/g). Outstanding electrochemical execution is due to the mesoporous tailored architecture (average pore diameter of 6.1 nm) and synergistic contribution of MCM-48 architectured with a Co3O4 core. This promising electrode material opens up a new platform for high-performance supercapacitors.

Over time, performance of tubular backpulse pressure filters in kraft mills deteriorates, even with regular acid washing. Unscheduled filter replacement due to filter plugging results in significant costs and may result in mill downtime. We identified acid-insoluble filter-plugging materials by scanning electron microscope/energy-dispersion X-ray spectroscopy (SEM/EDS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis in both polypropylene and Gore-Tex™ membrane filter socks. The major filter-plugging components were calcium sulfate (gypsum), calcium phosphate (hydroxylapatite), aluminosilicate clays, metal sulfides, and carbon. We carried out detailed sample analysis of both the standard acid-washing procedure and a modified procedure. Filter plugging by gypsum and metal sulfides appeared to occur because of the acid-washing procedure. Gypsum formation on the filter resulted from significant hydrolysis of sulfamic acid solution at temperatures greater than 130°F. Modification of the acid-washing procedure greatly reduced the amount of gypsum and addition of a surfactant to the acid reduced wash time and mobilized some of the carbon from the filter. With surfactant, acid washing was 95% complete after 40 min.

For the investigation of the products of reaction of yttrium oxide with carbon mixed in various proportions, the chemical and X-ray diffraction methods of analysis were combined with the gas chromatographic analysis of the mixture of hydrocarbons and hydrogen formed on the sample decomposition with water. The carboreduction of Y2O3 was examined at relatively low temperatures, convenient for obtaining the reaction intermediates in higher yields. At 1 600 °C and pressures of 10-3 Pa the reduction of a mixture of Y2O3 with carbon in a stoichiometric ratio of 1 : 7 yields YC2 in equilibrium with 20% of Y2OC phase. At lower carbon contents (down to the Y2O3 : C ratio of 1 : 2) tha fraction of the Y2OC phase increases up to approximately 30%. In addition to Y2O3, the reaction mixture contains also Y2C, Y2OC and a phase giving propyne on hydrolysis. The presence of traces of C3 hydrocarbons and small amounts of methane in the product of hydrolysis of the carbide sample prepared by the carbothermal reduction of the oxide can be explained in terms of the occurrence of the Y15C19 phase, probably substituted in part by oxygen, and of the Y2OC phase. The results are compared with those obtained previously for the Sc2O3 + C system.

Organoclay nanoparticles (Cloisite® C10A, Cloisite® C15) and their combination with carbon black (N330) were studied as fillers in chloroprene/natural/butadiene rubber blends to prepare nanocomposites. The effect of filler type and load on the physical mechanical properties of nanocomposites was determined and correlated with its structure, compatibility and cure properties using Fourier Transformed Infrared (FT-IR), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) and rheometric analysis. Physical mechanical properties were improved by organoclays at 5–7 phr. Nanocomposites with organoclays exhibited a remarkable increase up to 46% in abrasion resistance. The improvement in properties was attributed to good organoclay dispersion in the rubber matrix and to the compatibility between them and the chloroprene rubber. Carbon black at a 40 phr load was not the optimal concentration to interact with organoclays. The present study confirmed that organoclays can be a reinforcing filler for high performance applications in rubber nanocomposites.

Bacteria–mineral contact and noncontact leaching models coexist in the bioleaching process. In the present paper, dialysis bags were used to study the bioleaching process by separating the bacteria from the mineral, and the reasons for chalcopyrite surface passivation were discussed. The results show that the copper leaching efficiency of the bacteria–mineral contact model was higher than that of the bacteria–mineral noncontact model. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) were used to discover that the leaching process led to the formation of a sulfur film to inhibit the diffusion of reactive ions. In addition, the deposited jarosite on chalcopyrite surface was crystallized by the hydrolysis of the excess Fe3+ ions. The depositions passivated the chalcopyrite leaching process. The crystallized jarosite in the bacteria EPS layer belonged to bacteria–mineral contact leaching system, while that in the sulfur films belonged to the bacteria–mineral noncontact system.

Adsorption Capability

The CO2 adsorption on various Prussian blue analogue hexacyanoferrates was evaluated by thermogravimetric analysis. Compositions of prepared phases were verified by energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, infra-red spectroscopy and powder X-ray diffraction. The influence of different alkali cations in the cubic Fm3m structures was investigated for nominal compositions A2/3Cu[Fe(CN)6]2/3 with A = vacant, Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs. The Rb and Cs compounds show the highest CO2 adsorption per unit cell, 3.3 molecules of CO2 at 20 C and 1 bar, while in terms of mmol/g the Na compound exhibits the highest adsorption capability, 3.8 mmol/g at 20 C and 1 bar. The fastest adsorption/desorption is exhibited by the A-cation free compound and the Li compound. The influence of the amount of Fe(CN)6 vacancies were assessed by determining the CO2 adsorption capabilities of Cu[Fe(CN)6]1/2 (Fm3m symmetry, nominally 50% vacancies), KCu[Fe(CN)6]3/4 (Fm3m symmetry, nominally 25% vacancies), and CsCu[Fe(CN)6] (I-4m2 symmetry, nominally 0% vacancies). Higher adsorption was, as expected, shown on compounds with higher vacancy concentrations.
