Copper compounds are widely used as impregnants that enhance the removal of HCN by carbon-based filter media. The reaction mechanism involved is poorly understood. In this study, we have followed the reaction of HCN with pristine copper, copper oxide (CuO and Cu2O) and copper@copperoxide (Cu@Cu2O) core–shell nanoparticles of well-defined size and composition. We have established a cooperative reaction mechanism where both the copper oxide shell and copper core are required for the chemisorption of HCN onto copper nanoparticle impregnants. The suitability of copper@copperoxide nanoparticles as impregnants for the removal of HCN in respirator canisters is discussed.

ABSTRACTA nanoporous carbon (C) material, functionalized with Cobalt-Oxide/Cobalt (CoO/Co) core-shell nanoparticles (NPs), was structurally and chemically characterized with transmission electron microcopy (TEM) while its electrochemical response for Lithium ion battery (LIB) applications was evaluated as well. The results herein show that the nanoporous C material was uniformly functionalized with the CoO/Co core-shell NPs. Further the NPs were crystalline with fcc-type lattice on the Co2+ oxide shell and hcp-type core of metallic Co0. The electrochemical study was carried out by using galvanostatic charge/discharge cycling at a current density of 1000 mA g−1. The potential of this hybrid material for LIB applications was confirmed and it is attributed to the successful dispersion of the Co2+/ Co0 NPs in the C support.

Nanoscale thermodynamics and kinetics were explored via the manipulation of Pb/PbO core-shell nanoparticles with a focused electron beam which served as a nanometer heating probe. In the electron transmission microscope (TEM), when an electron beam of moderate intensity was used to irradiate the nanoparticles, the amorphous particles gradually crystallized and showed distinct boundaries between lead cores and oxide shells. In such a way, the oxide shell could be easily measured to be 0.5-2 nanometers. With a high intensity electron beam, melting of the lead cores could be observed, indicating a sufficient local temperature increasing induced by the concentrated heat generated by inelastic electron collisions. The fluidic metal core erupted out through the cracked shells accompanied with the vanish of the boundaries between the cores and shells. Manipulations on nanoparticle decorated carbon wires proved that the lead oxide shells could sustain the irradiation of intense electron beam.

ABSTRACTThis paper reports findings of an investigation of the synthesis of monolayer-capped iron oxide and core (iron oxide)-shell (gold) nanocomposite and their assembly towards thin films as sensing materials. Pre-synthesized and size-defined iron oxide nanoparticles were used as seeding materials for the reduction of gold precursors, which was shown to be effective for coating the iron oxide cores with gold shells (Fe oxide@Au). The unique aspect of our synthesis is the formation of Fe oxide@Au core-shell nanoparticles with controllable surface properties. By controlling the reaction temperatures and manipulating the capping agent properties and solution compositions, the size, shape, composition, and monodispersity can be tailored. The core-shell nanoparticles were shown to form molecularly-mediated thin film assemblies using molecular mediators. The sensing properties of the nanostructures on piezoelectric devices were examined for the detection of volatile organic compounds. The preliminary results have provided important insights into the design of core-shell nanocomposites as sensing materials.
