The characterization results demonstrated that the Ni Al_2O_4/γ-Al_2O_3 materials possessed mesoporous structures of uniform pore sizes; and the Ni^(2+) ions were completely reacted with alumina to Ni Al_2O_4 spinel in the matrices using N2 sorption, XRD, TEM, and XPS. The Ni Al_2O_4/γ-Al_2O_3 materials exhibited excellent catalytic properties and superior long-term stability for carbon dioxide reforming of methane. The effects of Ni content on the intrinsic activities and the amounts of coke disposition of the x NiAl_2O_4/γ-Al_2O_3 catalysts were discussed in detail for the carbon dioxide reforming of methane. The results revealed that the Ni particle sizes did not affect the intrinsic activity of metallic Ni, but smaller Ni particles could reduce the rate of coke deposition.展开更多

The effects of the two additives at certain concentrations on the seeded precipitation rate of sodium aluminate solution, particle size distribution (PSD) and morphology of precipitated gibbsite were investigated using titration method, particle size analyzer and scanning electron microscope (SEM), respectively. The results show that the two additives can accelerate the seeded precipitation rate of sodium aluminate solution. At relatively high concentration, the facilitative effect of EDTA on sodium aluminate solution is more obvious than that of Na4EDTA. EDTA makes gibbsite particles thinner than Na4EDTA. The Na+ and H+ result in the different effects on the seeded precipitation rate of sodium aluminate solution in spite of the same EDTA anion in the two additives.展开更多

文摘The adsorption method has the advantages of low cost,high efficiency,and environmental friendliness in treating fluorinated wastewater,and the adsorbent material is the key.This study combines the inherent anion-exchange adsorption properties of layered double hydroxides(LDHs).Self-supported porous adsorbent materials loaded with AFm and AFt were prepared from a composite cementitious system consisting of calcium aluminate cement(CAC)and flue gas desulfurization gypsum(FGDG)by chemical foaming technique.The mineral composition of the adsorbent material was characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD)and Scanning electron microscopy(SEM).Through the static adsorption experiment,the adsorption effect of the mineral composition of the adsorbent on fluoride ions was deeply analyzed,and the adsorption mechanism was revealed.XRD and SEM showed that the main hydration phases of the composite cementitious system consisting of CAC and FGDG are AFm,AFt,AH_(3),and CaSO_(4)·2H_(2)O.FGDG accelerates the hydration process of CAC and inhibits the transformation of AFt to AFm.The AFt content increased,and the AFm content decreased or even disappeared as the amount of FGDG increased.Static adsorption experiment results showed that AFm and AFt in adsorbent materials could significantly enhance the adsorption of fluoride ions.The adsorption of F^(−)in aqueous solution by PAG tends more towards monolayer adsorption with a theoretical maximum capacity of 108.70 mg/g and is similar to the measured value of 112.77 mg/g.

文摘Calcium aluminate cement(CAC)is a commonly used binder for refractory castables.There has been a long-running debate on the transformation mechanisms of calcium aluminate cement hydrates through solid-state reaction or solutionprecipitation.In order to demonstrate the conversion mechanism of CaO Al2O310H2O(CAH10)to 3CaO Al2O36H2O(C3AH6)and Al2O33H2O(AH3),the CAC pastes cured at 10℃to produce CAH10 was further cured at 60℃with and without free water.The hydration of the pastes was halted by freezing-drying,and the phases and microstructure of hydrates were investigated by XRD and SEM,respectively.The results indicate that CAH10 converts into C3AH6 and AH3 in water presence at 60℃,but does not transform into C3AH6 and AH3 without water,demonstrating that conversion of CAH10 into C3AH6 and AH3 does not happen through solid-state reaction,but takes place through preceding dissolution of CAH10 and subsequent precipitation of AH3 and C3AH6 from the solution.

文摘The mineral transition and formation mechanism of calcium aluminate compounds in CaO-Al2O3-Na2O system during the hightemperature sintering process were systematically investigated using DSC-TG,XRD,SEM-EDS,FTIR,and Raman spectra,and the crystal structure of Na4Ca3(AlO2)10 was also simulated by Material Studio software.The results indicated that the minerals formed during the sintering process included Na4Ca3(AlO2)10,CaO·Al2O3,and 12 CaO·7 Al2O3,and the content of Na4Ca3(AlO2)10 could reach 92 wt%when sintered at 1200°C for 30 min.The main formation stage of Na4Ca3(AlO2)10 occurred at temperatures from 970 to 1100°C,and the content could reach82 wt%when the reaction temperature increased to 1100°C.The crystal system of Na4Ca3(AlO2)10 was tetragonal,and the cells preferred to grow along crystal planes(110)and(210).The formation of Na4Ca3(AlO2)10 was an exothermic reaction that followed a secondary reaction model,and its activation energy was 223.97 kJ/mol.

文摘Na4EDTA and EDTA were adopted as new additives to intensify the seeded precipitation process of sodium aluminate solution. The effects of the two additives at certain concentrations on the seeded precipitation rate of sodium aluminate solution, particle size distribution (PSD) and morphology of precipitated gibbsite were investigated using titration method, particle size analyzer and scanning electron microscope (SEM), respectively. The results show that the two additives can accelerate the seeded precipitation rate of sodium aluminate solution. At relatively high concentration, the facilitative effect of EDTA on sodium aluminate solution is more obvious than that of Na4EDTA. EDTA makes gibbsite particles thinner than Na4EDTA. The Na+ and H+ result in the different effects on the seeded precipitation rate of sodium aluminate solution in spite of the same EDTA anion in the two additives.

文摘The early hydration of calcium aluminate cement (CAC) with different kinds of zinc (II),such as ZnSO4g7H2O,ZnO,Zn(NO3)2·6H2O and ZnCl2,was analyzed.Changes in consistency,setting time,hydration heat flow,hydration heat amount,ion concentration in solution,and hydration products were found upon the addition of different Zn^2+.The water consumption of standard consistency of CAC is decreased with different Zn^2+.Zn^2+ can delay the initial hydration of CAC.The induction period of cement with Zn^2+ is longer than that of CAC,especially the reaction time of the acceleration period is extended.Zn^2+ can promote hydration hydrate of CAC at 24 h.The characteristic diffraction peaks of CA and CA2 in CAC with different Zn^2+ are significantly reduced.It can inhibit the formation of CAH10 and promote the formation C3AH6 and AH3 in hydration products at 24 h.

文摘The electronic structure and the energy of various aluminate anions possibly existed in sodium aluminate solutions have been calculated by ah inilio and DV-Xct methods of quantum chemistry.The calculation results are used to explain the experimental results of the spectroscopic study of sodium aluminate solutions.It has been found that Al(OH)4^(-)may be more stable than AlO_(2)in solutions,and that[(H0)3Al-O-Al(OH)_(3)]^(2-)may be more stable than[(HO)_(3)Al<H■H>Al(OH)_(3)]^(2-)anions.The ultraviolet spectra of sodium aluminate solutions are also interpreted by quantum chemical method.
文摘Calcium aluminate cement(CAC)bonded corundum based castables were prepared using tabular corundum and activated alumina as the starting materials,CAC as the binder,zinc hydroxide(Zn(OH)_(2))and basic zinc carbonate(BZC)as the ZnO precursors.The effects of the two ZnO precursors on the phase composition and the microstructure of the CAC bonded corundum based castable matrix specimens were analyzed,and the reasons affecting the hot performance of the castables were studied.The results show that Zn(OH)_(2) with a smaller particle size(d_(50)=1.26μm)is prone to agglomerate during sample preparation and generates ZnAl_(2)O_(4) spinel grains after firing,hindering the growth of CA_(6),thus decreasing the mechanical strength of the castables.BZC with a larger particle size(d_(50)=2.91μm),which shows a sound dispersity,in-situ generates nano-sized ZnO after firing,and ZnO or Zn^(2+)diffuses into calcium aluminates,promoting the sintering of CA_(2) and CA_(6),thereby enhancing the hot properties of the CAC-bonded corundum based castables.
