Removal of lead(Pb(Ⅱ))and zinc(Zn(Ⅱ))from aqueous solution using coal fly ash(CFA)as a dual-sites adsorbent

Coal fly ash(CFA)is composed of minerals containing some oxides in crystalline phase(i.e.,quartz and mullite),as well as unburned carbon as mesoporous material,thus enabling CFA to act as a dual-sites adsorbent with unique properties.This work focused on the adsorption of Pb(Ⅱ)and Zn(Ⅱ)from binary system,a mixture containing two metal ion solutions present simultaneously,onto NaOH-modified CFA(MCFA).Several adsorption tests were conducted to evaluate the effect of several parameters,includ-ing pH and contact times.The experiment results indicated that chemical treatment of CFA with NaOH increased pore volume from 0.021 to 0.223 cm3 g-1.In addition,it could also enhance the availability of functional groups on both minerals and unburned carbon,resulting in almost 100％Pb(Ⅱ)and 97％Zn(Ⅱ)adsorbed.The optimum pH for adsorption system was pH=3 and quasi-equilibrium occurred in 240 minutes.Equilibrium data from the experimental results were analyzed using Modified Extended Langmuir(MEL)and Competitive Adsorption Langmuir-Langmuir(CALL)isotherm models.The analysis results showed that the CALL isotherm model could better describe the Pb(Ⅱ)and Zn(Ⅱ)adsorption pro-cess onto MCFA in binary system compared with MEL isotherm model.     

Synthetic copolymer (AM/AMPS/DMDAAC/SSS) as rheology modifier and fluid loss additive at HTHP for water-based drilling fluids

In the petroleum industry, high temperature and high pressure (HTHP) would dramatically worsen rheological properties and increase fluid loss volumes of drilling fluids. Synthetic polymer as an indispensable additive has attracted more and more attention recently. In this article, a new copolymer (named AADS) of 2-acrylamide-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid, acrylamide, dimethyl diallyl ammonium chloride, and sodium styrene sulfonate was synthesized through aqueous solution polymerization. The chemical structure of the copolymer was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance. Moreover, its thermal stability was simultaneously analyzed using a differential scanning calorimetry. The results showed that the synthetic polymer contained all the designed functional groups, and its structure was consistent to the desired one. Under contamination of sodium chloride, AADS solution maintained relatively high viscosity in high concentration brine, showing a good antisalt capacity. Furthermore, the effect of AADS content and temperature on rheological behavior and fluid loss volume of the water-based drilling fluid (WBDF) containing the synthesized product were investigated according to the American Petroleum Institute standard. Results showed that the rheological and filtration properties of the prepared WBDF were improved with the increase in the AADS concentration before and after the thermal aging test. In addition, in the temperature range of 80–240 °C, a reversible rheological behavior was observed during the heating–cooling process, and the HTHP fluid loss was controlled within 22.5 mL, suggesting that the copolymer AADS was suitable for making WBDF s with high temperature resistance. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

氨基羟基脲（HSC)是一种新型无盐试剂，可有效控制后处理料液中钚的价态，实现铀钚分离和钚的纯化，其含量是后处理工艺中的一项重要参数，需准确测定。本文根据HSC和对二甲氨基苯甲醛在酸性介质中发生显色反应，其产物在456 nm处有明显特征吸收的原理，建立了后处理料液中HSC的分析方法，并优化了分析条件。结果表明，HSC的最佳测量条件为测量波长456 nm、显色温度80～90 ℃（水浴）、显色时间45 min，NO^-₂、Fe³⁺、N₂H₄及其他共存组分对HSC的测定无明显影响。HSC含量在2.5～60.0 μmol/L范围内符合比耳定律，R²为0.999 9，测量精密度优于5.0%。在45 d内工作曲线重复性好，具有良好的长期稳定性。真实样品的测量结果显示，其重加回收率在99%～105%之间。     

Ti对铬钼钒模具钢奥氏体化组织与性能的影响

??The microstructure and properties of die steels with Ti and without Ti at different austenitizing temperatures were studied through the combination of thermodynamic calculation and experiment. The results show that the total solution temperature of Cr23C6, Cr7C3, VC, V2C, V8C7, MoC, Mo2C and TiC is 748. 2, 952. 7, 977. 3, 632. 9, 1116. 0, 1131. 2, 645. 3 and 1044. 1??, respectively. Hardness and impact toughness both increase with the increase in temperature. When the austenitizing temperature is above 1200 ??, it has a greater influence on the hardness. Toughness of die steel with Ti is better than that without Ti. The grain becomes coarse and the amount of martensite increases with the increase of temperature. The average grain size of the die steel with Ti is 21. 4??m smaller than that without Ti, and the size of the undissolved phase of the former is about 0. 2??m smaller than that of the latter.     

Tunable temperature‐ and shear‐responsive hydrogels based on poly(alkyl glycidyl ether)s

We describe the synthesis, characterization and direct‐write 3D printing of triblock copolymer hydrogels that have a tunable response to temperature and shear stress. In aqueous solutions, these polymers utilize the temperature‐dependent self‐association of poly(alkyl glycidyl ether) ‘A’ blocks and a central poly(ethylene oxide) segment to create a physically crosslinked three‐dimensional network. The temperature response of these hydrogels was dependent upon composition, chain length and concentration of the ‘A’ block in the copolymer. Rheological experiments confirmed the existence of sol–gel transitions and the shear‐thinning behavior of the hydrogels. The temperature‐ and shear‐responsive properties enabled direct‐write 3D printing of complex objects with high fidelity. Hydrogel cytocompatibility was also confirmed by incorporating HeLa cells into select hydrogels resulting in high viabilities over 24 h. The tunable temperature response and innate shear‐thinning properties of these hydrogels, coupled with encouraging cell viability results, present an attractive opportunity for additive manufacturing and tissue engineering applications. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry     

分光光度法和光度滴定法联合测定湿法炼锌流程中钴渣浸出液中锌钴镍

湿法炼锌流程中钴渣浸出液中含有高浓度的Fe²⁺和Mn²⁺,用分光光度法测定Co²⁺和Ni²⁺时,Fe²⁺-EDTA会严重干扰Co²⁺和Ni²⁺的测定;在用光度滴定法测定Zn²⁺和Co²⁺合量时,Ni²⁺对二甲酚橙指示剂具有封闭作用,Mn²⁺亦与EDTA螯合,导致滴定结果偏高。为消除Fe²⁺和Mn²⁺对Zn²⁺、Co²⁺和Ni²⁺测定的干扰,实验进行氧化分离Fe²⁺和Mn²⁺预处理,在NaAc/Hac缓冲体系下,以EDTA作显色剂用分光光度法测定Co²⁺、Ni²⁺。在波长466nm处,Co²⁺的线性范围为50~500mg/L时与吸光度呈线性,相关系数R²为0.9992;在384nm处,Ni²⁺的线性范围为50~500mg/L时与吸光度呈线性,相关系数R²为0.9998。根据分光光度法测出Ni²⁺物质的量,加入1.1倍的丁二酮肟以除去Ni²⁺,用二甲酚橙为指示剂,EDTA鳌合-光度滴定法测定Zn²⁺、Co²⁺合量,扣减Co²⁺含量得出Zn²⁺含量。选取4个锌湿法炼锌流程中钴渣浸出液实际样品,按照实验方法中的分光光度法测定Co²⁺和Ni²⁺,光度滴定法测定Zn²⁺、Co²⁺合量,Zn²⁺、Co²⁺和Ni²⁺测定结果的相对标准偏差(RSD,n=6)均不大于0.70%,加标回收率分别为99.59%~100.41%、99.69%~100.64%、99.92%~100.08%。     

Controllable 1D Patterned Assembly of Colloidal Quantum Dots on PbSO4 Nanoribbons

Control of the 1D self‐assembly pattern of colloidal quantum dots (QDs) on PbSO₄ nanoribbon (NRb) templates is achieved. The internal structure of the NRbs is investigated by X‐ray diffraction, revealing the isotropic packing of the PbSO₄ nanoclusters in the NRbs. Colloidal QDs in a chloroform/hexane mixture are adsorbed onto the region close to the edges of the NRbs and form a 1D assembly of straight single line or double lines by controlling the amount of OAm. This is the first demonstration of a densely packed 1D self‐assembly of colloidal QDs with a straight line pattern without the use of any molecular bridge or adhesive. Atomic force microscopy measurements of the NRbs show depressions in the phase profile along the width of the NRbs, corresponding to the position of the 1D QD chain. The amount of adsorbed QDs on the NRbs in solution decreases as the addition of OAm increases, suggesting that additional OAm prevents interaction between the QDs and NRbs but facilitates the uniform adsorption of the 1D assembly. The low‐dimensional self‐assembly of colloidal QDs in this study opens up the possibility for the creation of anisotropically assembled QD superstructures.     

Catalytic oxidation of CO on mesoporous codoped ceria catalysts:Insights into correlation of physicochemical property and catalytic activity

Codoping approach is an appealing strategy to further improve the catalytic activity of Ce-based catalysts. In the present study,Mn and/or Cu doped ceria solid solutions MnxCuyCe_(1-x-y)O_2,Cu_xCe_(1-x)O_2,Mn_xCe_(1-x)O_2 and pure CeO_2 were prepared by CTAB-assisted hydrothermal method for CO oxidation.XRD, SEM, EDS, BET, Raman, H2-TPR, XPS and in situ DRIFTS techniques were carried out to study the physicochemical properties and to correlate them to the activity. The doped samples maintain the cubic fluorite structure of CeO_2 with high crystallinity and small crystallite size, forming Ce-based solid solutions. The obtained catalysts have large mesoporous structure with average pore size of 10-14 nm. The doped transition metal enhances the oxygen vacancies and improves reducibility of the solids. The synergistic interaction of Mn and Cu codoping induces mo re oxygen vacancies, pro moting the increase of surface adsorbed oxygen and the transfer of bulk oxygen of catalyst, thereby enhancing the catalytic activity for CO oxidation. Besides, the decomposition rate of the carbonate species which is derived from in situ DRIFTS for each catalyst can provide a measure to evaluate its catalytic activity of CO oxidation.
