Co-doped Fe2O3 oxygen carriers reacted with CO were investigated in order to study the temperature effect on the redox characterization.Co-Fe2O3 were characterized with X-ray diffraction (XRD), BET and transmission electron microscope (TEM), which showed that the surface structure was regular, and the polymorph was stable. The TG (Thermo Gravimetric Analyzer) analysis indicted that, rational doping Co could enhance the reactivity of iron-base oxygen carrier reacted with CO under different conditions. Oxygen carrier with Fe: Co molar ratio of 1:0.1 had best reactivity. With the temperature increased, the reduction degree became deeper and the complete conversion time shortened. The reduction reaction Co0.1Fe oxygen carrier with CO was carried out step by step, and the entire process was divided into three stages, namely 344.7-391.0, 414.7-472.5 and 607.6-681.5°C.

In this work, the series of Tb3+/Eu3+ co-doped xerogels and derivative glass-ceramics containing CaF2 nanocrystals were prepared and characterized. The in situ formation of fluoride crystals was verified by an X-ray diffraction technique (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The studies of the Tb3+/Eu3+ energy transfer (ET) process were performed based on excitation and emission spectra along with luminescence decay analysis. According to emission spectra recorded under near-ultraviolet (NUV) excitation (351 nm, 7F6 → 5L9 transition of Tb3+), the mutual coexistence of the 5D4 → 7FJ (J = 6–3) (Tb3+) and the 5D0 → 7FJ (J = 0–4) (Eu3+) luminescence bands was clearly observed. The co-doping also resulted in gradual shortening of a lifetime from the 5D4 state of Tb3+ ions, and the ET efficiencies were varied from ηET = 11.9% (Tb3+:Eu3+ = 1:0.5) to ηET = 22.9% (Tb3+:Eu3+ = 1:2) for xerogels, and from ηET = 25.7% (Tb3+:Eu3+ = 1:0.5) up to ηET = 67.4% (Tb3+:Eu3+ = 1:2) for glass-ceramics. Performed decay analysis from the 5D0 (Eu3+) and the 5D4 (Tb3+) state revealed a correlation with the change in Tb3+–Eu3+ and Eu3+–Eu3+ interionic distances resulting from both the variable Tb3+:Eu3+ molar ratio and their partial segregation in CaF2 nanophase.

Silica supported nickel molybdenum phosphides (NiMoP/SiO2) were successfully prepared by temperature-programmed reduction (TPR) reaction of phosphorous-impregnated nickel molybdenum oxides (NiMoO4) precursors with hydrogen at relatively low temperatures (530 – 590 oC) and characterized by Fourier transform-Infrared spectrometry (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) and Temperature-programmed reduction reaction (TPR). The process of solid transformation and properties of materials prepared from ammonium hydrogen phosphate (AMP)-impregnated samples were compared with those of phosphide made from phosphoric acid (PAC)-impregnated samples. Results show that the formation of a single NiMoP phase on silica significantly depends on reduction rates, phosphorous sources and phosphorous loadings. A single phase of NiMoP on SiO2 was particularly promoted at a below 5 oC/min of reduction rate and the starting molar ratio of Ni/Mo/P=1/1/1. A single phase of crystalline NiMoP on silica was produced from AMP-impregnated samples, while other phases of MoP, Ni2P, or NiMoP2 were appeared from PAC-impregnated samples with loading. The new phase of NiMoP2 was occurred with increasing phosphorous loading (above Ni/Mo/P=1/1/2.5) as a result of facilitated contact on the surface between the Ni-Mo bimetallic component and the phosphorous reagent

New molybdenum trioxide-incorporated ZnO materials were prepared through the electrospinning method and then calcination at 500 °C, for 2 h. The obtained electrospun ZnO:MoO3 hybrid materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning and transmission electron microscopies, ultraviolet (UV)-diffuse reflectance, UV–visible (UV–vis) absorption, and photoluminescence techniques. It was observed that the presence of MoO3 as loading material in pure ZnO matrix induces a small blue shift in the absorption band maxima (from 382 to 371 nm) and the emission peaks are shifted to shorter wavelengths, as compared to pure ZnO. Also, a slight decrease in the optical band gap energy of ZnO:MoO3 was registered after MoO3 incorporation. The photocatalytic performance of pure ZnO and ZnO:MoO3 was assessed in the degradation of rhodamine B (RhB) dye with an initial concentration of 5 mg/L, under visible light irradiation. A doubling of the degradation efficiency of the ZnO:MoO3 sample (3.26% of the atomic molar ratio of Mo/Zn) as compared to pure ZnO was obtained. The values of the reaction rate constants were found to be 0.0480 h−1 for ZnO, and 0.1072 h−1 for ZnO:MoO3, respectively.

A new biodegradable aliphatic-aromatic poly (butylene carbonate-co-terephthalate) (PBCT-85) with the molar ratio [BC]/[BT] = 85/15, successfully synthesized through transesterification and polycondensation processes, was identified using 1H-NMR spectra. Various weight ratios of PBCT/organically modified layered zinc phenylphosphonate (m-PPZn) nanocomposites were manufactured using the solution mixing process. Wide-angle X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy were used to examine the morphology of PBCT-85/m-PPZn nanocomposites. Both results exhibited that the stacking layers of m-PPZn were intercalated into the PBCT-85 polymer matrix. The additional m-PPZn into PBCT-85 copolymer matrix significantly enhanced the storage modulus at −70 °C, as compared to that of neat PBCT-85. The lipase from Pseudomonas sp. was used to investigate the enzymatic degradation of PBCT-85/m-PPZn nanocomposites. The weight loss decreased as the loading of m-PPZn increased, indicating that the existence of m-PPZn inhibits the degradation of the PBCT-85 copolymers. This result might be attributed to the higher degree of contact angle for PBCT-85/m-PPZn nanocomposites. The PBCT-85/m-PPZn composites approved by MTT assay are appropriate for cell growth and might have potential in the application of biomedical materials.

In this work, novel graphene/In2O3 (GR/In2O3) nanocubes were prepared via one-pot solvothermal treatment, reduction reaction, and successive annealing technology at 600 °C step by step. Interestingly, In2O3 with featured cubic morphology was observed to grow on multi-layered graphene nanosheets, forming novel GR/In2O3 nanocubes. The resulting nanocomposites were characterized using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction spectroscopy (XRD), etc. Further investigations demonstrated that a selective electrochemical sensor based on the prepared GR/In2O3 nanocubes can be achieved. By using the prepared GR/In2O3-based electrochemical sensor, the enantioselective and chem-selective performance, as well as the optimal conditions for L-Lysine detection in Camellia nitidissima Chi, were evaluated. The experimental results revealed that the GR/In2O3 nanocube-based electrochemical sensor showed good chiral recognition features for L-lysine in Camellia nitidissima Chi with a linear range of 0.23–30 μmol·L−1, together with selectivity and anti-interference properties for other different amino acids in Camellia nitidissima Chi.

Three types of ternary low-platinum nanocatalysts, alloy PdPtIr/C, core–shell PdPt@PtIr/C and Pd@PtIr/C, have been prepared, and their catalytic behaviors toward methanol oxidation reaction (MOR)/oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) are comparatively investigated via cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry analysis in an acidic medium. Through a two-step colloidal technique, the synthesized core–shell structured catalyst PtPd@PtIr/C with alloy core and alloy shell show the best catalytic activity toward MOR and the best poisoning tolerance. The alloy PdPtIr/C catalyst prepared via a one-step colloidal technique exhibits the best performance toward ORR among the three catalysts. All the three catalysts are characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and other characterization techniques.

A novel nanocomposite ZnFe2O4-TiO2/MCM-41 (ZTM) was synthesized by a sol-gel method and characterized through X-ray diffraction (XRD), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), N2adsorption-desorption, Raman spectroscopy, and ultraviolet visible (UV-vis) spectrophotometry. The results confirmed the incorporation of ZnFe2O4-TiO2nanoparticles inside the pores of the mesoporous MCM-41 host without destroying its integrity. ZnFe2O4nanoparticles can inhibit the transformation of anatase into rutile phase of TiO2. Incorporation of ZnFe2O4-TiO2within MCM-41 avoided the agglomeration of nanoparticles and reduced the band gap energy of TiO2to enhance its visible light photocatalytic activity. UV-vis absorption edges of ZTM nanocomposites redshifted with the increase of Zn/Ti molar ratio. The nanocomposite approach could be a potential choice for enhancing the photoactivity of TiO2, indicating an interesting application in the photodegradation and photoelectric fields.

Fe-doped TiO2nanotubes (Fe-TNTs) have been prepared by ultrasonic-assisted hydrothermal method. The structure and composition of the as-prepared TiO2nanotubes were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and UV-Visible absorption spectroscopy. Their photocatalytic activities were evaluated by the degradation of MO under visible light. The UV-visible absorption spectra of the Fe-TNT showed a red shift and an enhancement of the absorption in the visible region compared to the pure TNT. The Fe-TNTs were provided with good photocatalytic activities and photostability and under visible light irradiation, and the optimum molar ratio of Ti : Fe was found to be 100 : 1 in our experiments.

γ–Fe2O3/SiO2 and Fe/SiO2 nanocomposites, with a Fe/Si molar ratio of 0.25, were prepared by the sol-gel method starting from ethanolic solutions of tetraethoxysilane and iron (III) nitrate. After gelation the xerogels were oxidated or reduced. Samples were investigated by transmission electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, and thermogravimetry. Magnetic properties of the samples were investigated at room temperature (RT) and at 77 K. Nanometric particles supported in the silica matrix were obtained in all cases. Bigger particles (10 nm) were obtained in the case of Fe/SiO2 nanocomposites with respect to the γ–Fe2O3/SiO2 samples (5–8 nm). A slight effect of sol dilution on particle size was observed only in the case of γ–Fe2O3/SiO2 nanocomposites. A superparamagnetic behavior was shown at RT only by γ–Fe2O3/SiO2 nanocomposites. Iron-based composites exhibited coercivity values higher than 700 Oe at RT.
