The Cu NWs were prepared from copper (Ⅱ) nitrate using a solution-based reduction method. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, temperature-programmed reduction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. It was found that the morphology and composition of the catalysts could be tailored by varying the oxidation temperature and time. During the gradual oxidation of Cu NWs, the oxidation reaction inflated on the outer surface and gradually developed into the bulk of the NWs, leading to the formation of catalysts with various structures and layered compositions, e.g., Cu NWs with surface Cu2O, ternary Cu-Cu2O-CuO core-shell NWs, binary Cu2O-CuO nanotubes (NTs), and single CuO NTs. Among these catalysts, ternary Cu-Cu2O-CuO core-shell NWs exhibited superior M2 selectivity and Si conversion in the Rochow reaction. The enhanced catalytic performance was mainly attributed to improved mass and heat transfer resulting from the peculiar heterostructure and the synergistic effect among layered components. Our work indicated that the catalytic property of Cu-based nanoparticles can be improved by carefully controlling their structures and compositions.展开更多

High-resolution transmission electron microscopy and fast Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy indicated that the dominant crystal facets of L-CuO, F-CuO, U-CuO, and O-CuO were {001}, {110}, {001}, and {110}, as well as {001} and {110}, respectively. When tested for the Rochow reaction, it was found that their catalytic performances were dependent on their structures. Among the four CuO catalysts, L-CuO exhibited the best catalytic property, along with the strongest adsorption ability for oxygen and highest reducibility, which are mainly because of its largely exposed {001} facet and large specific surface area. In addition, the amount of the Cu3Si alloy phase, which is the most important reaction intermediate that generated in the reacted region of the Si surface, was measured for the different catalysts. Based on the findings, a detailed reaction mechanism was proposed. This work demonstrates that shape-controlled synthesis of oxide catalysts could be an effective strategy to design and develop efficient catalysts.展开更多

The diffusion effect is a main kinetic factor that can be used to regulate the growth and structure of materials. In this work, we developed a systematic and feasible strategy to synthesize Cu2O solid spheres and hexahedrons by controlling the diffusion coefficients. These Cu2O products can be successively transformed into corresponding Cu hollow spheres and hexahedrons as well as CuO porous spheres and hexahedrons by controlling hydrogen diffusion in hydrazine hydrate solution and controlling oxygen diffusion in air, respectively. The formation of these transformations was also discussed in detail. Tested for Rochow reaction, the as-prepared Cu2O solid and CuO porous spheres exhibit higher dimethyldichlorosilane selectivity and Si conversion than Cu hollow spheres, which is attributed to the active sites for CH3Cl adsorption formed in CuxSi phase after the removal of oxygen atoms in Cn2O and CuO in the formation of dimethylchlorosilane. The present work not only develops a feasible method for preparing well shape-defined Cu2O solid spheres and hexahedrons but also clarifies the respective roles of Cu, Cu2O and CuO in dimethyldichlorosilane synthesis via Rochow reaction.展开更多

WCMs from the organosilane industry were treated with acid followed by reduction with metallic iron powder. The obtained copper powder was then subjected to controlled oxidation in air at different temperatures, followed by ball milling. The orthogonal array approach was applied to optimize this process, and the stirring speed and pH were found to significantly affect the leaching ratio and copper yield, respectively. When used for the Rochow process, the optimized ternary Cu-Cu2O-CuO catalyst greatly enhanced the dimethyldichlorosilane selectivity and Si conversion compared with Cu-Cu2O-CuO catalysts prepared without ball milling, bare Cu catalysts, and Cu-Cu2O-CuO catalysts with different compositions. This could be attributed to their small particle size and the strong synergistic effect among the multiple components in the catalyst with the optimized composition.展开更多

The experimental results show that the photocatalytic activity of ABO 3 increases with increasing atomic number of atom B(Ti—Co) when A site atom keeps constant. It is connected with the rise of Allred Rochow electronegativity of atom B, the decrease of ABO 3 energy gap(energy defference between the filled p bands of O 2- and the unoccupied 3 d band of neighboring atom B) and the increase of the third atomic ionizaton potentials of atom B. It has been also proved that the photocatalytic activity of ABO 3 compounds increases with increasing χ AR of atom A(Ca, Cd, Pb).展开更多

However, the fabrication of well-defined hollow spheres with highly specific morphology for mixed transition metal oxides on a large scale remains challenging. In this work, uniform rambutan-like heterostructured CeO2~CuO hollow microspheres with numerous copper-ceria interfacial sites and nanorods and nanoparticles as building blocks are prepared via a facile hydrothermal method followed by calcination. Importantly, this approach can be readily scaled up and is applicable to the synthesis of various CuO-based mixed metal oxide complex hollow spheres. The as-prepared CeO2-CuO hollow rambutans exhibit superior performance both as electrode materials for supercapacitors and as Cu-based catalysts for the Rochow reaction, mainly due to the small primary nanoparticle constituents, high surface area, and formation of numerous interior heterostructures.展开更多
