Core Shell Structure

A core-shell structure RuRh@Pt/C nanoparticles was prepared by using a two-step reduction method under ultrasonic promotion. The catalytic performance was tested in methanol electrooxidation. X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) combined with cyclic voltammetry (CV) were used to characterize the obtained catalyst. The results showed that there was no alloy formed between the core RuRh and the shell Pt. The electrocatalytic activity of RuRh@Pt/C varied with the Ru/Rh ratio in the bimetallic core, among which the catalyst with the Ru/Rh ratio 1:2 and the Pt-shell thickness of 1.5 ([email protected]/C) showed the highest catalytic activity for methanol. With this catalyst, the current density of the oxidation peak for methanol electro-oxidation reached 2.3 times as that of Pt1.5/C while the corresponding peak potential shifted 60 mV negatively in comparing to that of Pt1.5/C. In addition, the catalyst with the core-shell structure of RuRh@Pt/C possessed much higher CO-tolerance for methanol electro-oxidation, indicating its promising application in low temperature fuel cell.

In this paper, the monodisperse TiO2 particles and TiO2 coated SiO2 core-shell particles were prepared by the method of microemulsion, and the phase and morphology of TiO2 and TiO2 coated SiO2 core-shell structure particles were analyzed by using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). At the same time, the phase changes and morphology changes of the two different kinds of structural particles as the changes of sintering temperature were compared. The results show that when the TiO2 particles were prepared by the method of microemulsion, the content of anatase TiO2 decreased gradually and the rutile TiO2 increased gradually as the sintering temperature increases from 550 °C to 650 °C; the core-shell particles of TiO2 coated SiO2 prepared were anatase when the sintering temperature increases from 600 °C to 800 °C; all of the particles size were about 1μm, the monodispersity of the particles were optimal and the particles were coated evenly, smoothly.

Core Shell Structure

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is a powerful tool in charge transfer (CT) process research. By analyzing the relative intensity of the characteristic bands in the bridging molecules, one can obtain detailed information about the CT between two materials. Herein, we synthesized a series of Au nanorods (NRs) with different length-to-diameter ratios (L/Ds) and used these Au NRs to prepare a series of core–shell structures with the same Cu2O thicknesses to form Au NR–4-mercaptobenzoic acid (MBA)@Cu2O core–shell structures. Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) absorption bands were adjusted by tuning the L/Ds of Au NR cores in these assemblies. SERS spectra of the core-shell structure were obtained under 633 and 785 nm laser excitations, and on the basis of the differences in the relative band strengths of these SERS spectra detected with the as-synthesized assemblies, we calculated the CT degree of the core–shell structure. We explored whether the Cu2O conduction band and valence band position and the SPR absorption band position together affect the CT process in the core–shell structure. In this work, we found that the specific surface area of the Au NRs could influence the CT process in Au NR–MBA@Cu2O core–shell structures, which has rarely been discussed before.

The core–shell structure composite magnetic nanoparticles (NPs), Fe3O4@chitosan@nimodipine (Fe3O4@CS@NMDP), were successfully synthesized by a chemical cross-linking method in this paper. NMDP is widely used for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease prevention and treatment, while CS is of biocompatibility. The composite particles were characterized by an X-ray diffractometer (XRD), a Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), a transmission electron microscopy (TEM), a vibrating sample magnetometers (VSM) and a high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The results show that the size of the core–shell structure composite particles is ranging from 12[Formula: see text]nm to 20[Formula: see text]nm and the coating thickness of NMDP is about 2[Formula: see text]nm. The saturation magnetization of core–shell composite NPs is 46.7[Formula: see text]emu/g, which indicates a good potential application for treating cancer by magnetic target delivery. The release percentage of the NMDP can reach 57.6% in a short time of 20[Formula: see text]min in the PBS, and to 100% in a time of 60[Formula: see text]min, which indicates the availability of Fe3O4@CS@NMDP composite NPs for targeting delivery treatment.
