ChemInform Abstract: THE GENERATION OF HYDROGEN PEROXIDE DURING WATER PHOTOELECTROLYSIS AT N-TITANIUM DIOXIDE

Titanium dioxide supported sulfonated low rank coal catalyst possesses high catalytic activity in liquid phase oxidation of styrene with aqueous hydrogen peroxide at room temperature. The catalysts were prepared by sulfonation with concentrated sulfuric acid and impregnation of titanium dioxide (500-2500 µmol). The effect of titanium dioxide impregnation and calcinations on the catalysts were studied by X-ray diffraction, UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, BET surface area, field emission scanning electron microscopy and hydrophobicity measurement. The catalytic activity of the catalysts in the oxidation of styrene by aqueous H2O2 without calcination increased when the amount of titanium dioxide increased. Meanwhile, the catalytic activity of the catalyst calcined at 500oC for 2 h was lower than before calcination. It is suggested that the agglomeration of titanium dioxide and hydrophobicity play important role in the catalytic activity of titanium dioxide-supported sulfonated low rank coal in the oxidation of styrene with aqueous H2O2.

Oxidation Effect

Shenfu bituminous coal (SFBC) and Xilinhaote lignite (XL) were subject to photo-catalytic oxidation with hydrogen peroxide over titanium dioxide. The reaction mixtures were extracted with acetone exhaustively. The extracts were analyzed with FTIR and GC/MS. The results show that coals be oxidized selectively and degraded partially. Compared with the bituminite coal, the oxidation effect of the lignite coal with active hydrogens is more obvious. The alkyl side chains of the macromolecules, particularly, chains of methyl, methylene and aromatic, are the most vulnerable in relation to other compounds in coals. Moreover, the increasing of straight-chain alkanes and the decreasing of condensed nucleus in SFBC and XL through oxidation suggest that the oxidation is an effective method of coal utilization with no difficultly, also be friendly towards the environment after treated as well as in the process of the treatment.

(9) the oxidation rate of organic compounds is fast when large amount of ferrous ions are present because large amount of hydroxyl radicals are produced. However, the Fenton reaction may slow down due to the slow ferrous ion production. In previous studies, the photocatalytic degradation of dichlorvos (DDVP. an insecticide) on glass supported titanium dioxide was investigated. Results indicate that photocatalysis can be an effective process for the degradation of dichlorvos [3]. The mineralization of dichlorvos and the reduction of toxicity were investigated via the photocatalytic reaction [4]. This study uses Fenton’s reagent, ferrous ions/hydrogen peroxide, to oxidize dichlorvos with an attempt to explore the behavior of dichlorvos oxidation and how factors such as pH, [H O ],

Endodontically Treated Tooth

PURPOSE: This study evaluated the effect of 10% sodium ascorbate (10SA), in gel (10SAg) or aqueous solution (10SAs) formulations, on fracture resistance of endodontically treated tooth submitted to dental bleaching procedures with 15% hydrogen peroxide associated with titanium dioxide (15HP-TiO2) nanoparticles and photoactivated by LED-laser. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Forty maxillary premolars were endodontically-treated and embedded in acrylic resin up to the cement-enamel junction. The specimens were divided into four groups (n=10): G1 (negative control): no bleaching, coronal access restored with composite resin; G2 (positive control): three dental bleaching sessions using 15HP-TiO2 and LED-laser photoactivation and restored with composite resin (positive control); G3 (10SAg): similar procedures to G2, but applied 10SA, in gel formulation, for 24 hours before restoration; G4 (10SAs): similar procedures to G3, but applied 10SA, in aqueous solution formulation. The 15HP-TiO2 was applied on buccal and lingual surfaces of the crown tooth and inside the pulp chamber and photoactivated by LED-laser. Between each bleaching session, the teeth were maintained in artificial saliva, at 37oC, for 7 days. In sequence, the teeth were submitted to fracture resistance testing using an eletromechanical machine test. The data was analyzed using Kruskal Wallis test (p = 0.05) RESULTS: There are no differences significant among the groups in relation to fracture resistance of endodontically treated teeth (p>0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The use of 10% sodium ascorbate, in gel or aqueous solution formulations, did not interfered on the fracture resistance teeth after dental bleaching using 15HP-TiO2 and LED-laser photoactivation.
