The low-temperature synergistic mechanism of ADB and NaOl was explored by infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, surface tension measurement, foam performance test, and flotation reagent size measurement.The flotation tests revealed that the collector mixed with octadecyl dimethyl betaine (ODB) and NaOl in a mass ratio of 4:96 exhibited the highest collection capacity. The combined collector could increase the scheelite recovery by 3.48% at low temperatures of 8–12℃. This is particularly relevant in the Luanchuan area, which has the largest scheelite concentrate output in China. The results confirmed that ODB enhanced the collection capability of NaOl by improving the dispersion and foaming performance. Betaine can be introduced as an additive to NaOl to improve the recovery of scheelite at low temperatures.展开更多

Herein, we synthesized thiophene-conjugated porous C3N4 nanosheets(CN-ATCN) exhibiting boosted photoregeneration activity of nicotinamide cofactors(NADH and NADPH), which are the most common redox cofactors of oxidoreductases, with regeneration rates of 59.00 μM/min for NADH and 40.99 μM/min for NADPH, ~ 84.3 and 24.7 times higher than those of bulk g-C3N4, respectively. The thin nanosheet structure of CN-ATCN facilitates the exposure of active sites to reactants and favors the diff usion of reactants and products. Upon conjugation of a thiophene moiety into the carbon nitride framework, the optical and photoelectric properties of CN-ATCN were considerably enhanced by an extended π-conjugation system in the frameworks and molecular type II heterojunctions formed between the incorporated and nonincorporated portions of CN-ATCN.
