The chemical compositions, morphologies and corrosion resistance of coatings were investigated through energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), electron probe micro-analysis (EPMA) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) together with hydrogen volumetric and electrochemical tests. The results indicate that both coatings predominately contain crystalline hopeite (Zn3(PO4)2·4H2O), Mg3(PO4)2 and Ca3(PO4)2, and traces of non-crystalline MgF2 and CaF2. The Zn-Ca-Ce-P coating is more compact than the Zn-Ca-P coating due to the formation of CePO4, and displays better corrosion resistance than the Zn-Ca-P coating. Both coatings protect the AZ31 Mg substrate only during an initial immersion period. The micro-galvanic corrosion between the coatings and their substrates leads to an increase of hydrogen evolution rate (HER) with extending the immersion time. The addition of Ce promotes the homogenous distribution of Ca and formation of hopeite. The Zn-Ca-Ce-P coating has the potential for the primer coating on magnesium alloys.展开更多

The influence of different process parameters on the surface morphology and performance of the conversion film were analyzed by means of SEM and electrochemical method. Formation dynamics about cerium conversion film on magnesium alloy in solution containing cerium salt and the anti-corrosion behavior of the conversion film in 3.5% NaCl solution were studied by electrochemical method respectively. The results shows that the conversion film is more compact at room temperature when concentration of cerium sulfate is 10 g·L-1 in the solution; the open circuit potential of the magnesium sample moves up to positive direction about 100 mV, the surface of conversion film becomes even and lustrous, and the adhesion intensity of conversion film increases when adding aluminum nitrate into the solution containing cerium salt. The pH value of the solution and immersion time of the sample in the solution also affect the surface morphology and anti-corrosion property of the conversion film. After covered by rare earths conversion film, the anti-corrosion property of magnesium alloy is obviously improved. Rare earth conversion film has self-repairing capability in corrosion medium.展开更多

The corrosion resistance of the coating was studied by salt spray and damp test, and the corrosion tendency during salt immersion test was analyzed. The results show that the phase composition before and after pre-treatment is almost changeless, and the deep microflaw appears between a andβ phases during acidic pickling. The phosphate conversion coating is mainly composed of Mg, MgO, and some amorphous phase, and it can provide a good protection for the AZ31B alloy. Results from corrosive morphology indicate that the growth and the corrosion resistance of the phosphate conversion coating are related to the forming process of the AZ31B matrix.展开更多

Then the forming process, structure and corrosion resistance of the coating were investigated. The influential factors of cerium conversion coating were discussed through orthogonal experiments, and the optimum processing parameters were confirmed. XPS spectra displayed that the conversion coating consisted of cerium compounds, and the major component of the protective layer was a mixture of Ce (IV) oxide and Ce (IV) hydroxide. In addition, XRD pattern illustrated that there was crystalline CeO2 in the conversion coating. Analysis by SEM showed that the cerium conversion coating was uniform with a fiber-like morphology. The thickness of the conversion coating was 12 μm. The results of electrochemical potentiodynamic polarization and hydrogen evolution measurement indicated that the cerium conversion coating provided effective protection to the novel Mg-Li alloy.展开更多

The reaction products were further converted to a series of perfluoroalkyl-substituted a, β-unsaturated acids or esters, a-amino acids and γ-lactones. A peculiar peak (M+15)was found to appear in the mass spectra of some perfluoroalkyl-substituted methyl esters. It was interpreted to be the result of a CH_3 group transfer to the molecular ion. Magnetic nonequivalence was observed in the ^(19)F NMR spectra of CF_2 group linked to CH_2 in compounds 2t, g and 3t', g which showed a typical AB pattern, and was attributed to the effect of steric hindrance.展开更多

Both chemical conversion treatment and anodizing can increase the bonding strength. The anodizing treatment gives higher bonding strength and better corrosion resistance than chemical conversion treatment. The increase of bonding strength by the treatmetlts may be attributed to the uneven surface structures with micro-pores, resulting in increased bonding areas and the embedding effect.展开更多

The influence of solution composition on the surface morphology of golden yellow rare earth conversion film on magnesium alloy was studied by means of SEM; potential-time curves in the formation process of rare earth conversion film and the anti-corrosion property of the conversion film were tested through ECT. The results show that, when there is no other component in the solution besides cerium sulfate, yellow film can be obtained on magnesium alloy, but there are some dusts on the film surface and the solution is not stable. The stability of cerium sulfate solution increases with adding hydrogen peroxide, while the film is thin and its color turn light. After adding combination additive containing Al 3+, smooth and compact golden yellow film was obtained on magnesium alloy. The polarization curves tested in 3.5% NaCl solution show that the anti-corrosion property of magnesium alloy is increased obviously by rare earth conversion film, and the film has self-repairing capability in the corrosion process.展开更多

Herein, we demonstrate preparation of ZnO/ZnS core-shell composites through di- rectly synthesizing ZnS on the ZnO nanoparticles in solution. We confirmed the formation of ZnO/ZnS core-shell composites by the uses of X-ray diffraction patterns and the Fourier transform infrared spec- troscopy. ZnO/ZnS composites exhibit much homogeneous surface morphology as compared with the bare ZnO as revealed in the scanning electronic microscopy. Moreover, the upper shift of conduction band level upon composition of the ZnO/ZnS film results in a better alignment of energy level, which facilitates cas- cade charge extraction and thus improves the current density of perovskite solar cell. The shift of conduc- tion band also improves the voltage of the PSCs. The photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopies measured in both steady and transient states were carried out to characterize the charge extraction at the interface between CH_3NH_3Pbl_3 and the electron transport layers of either ZnO or ZnO/ZnS composite. The ZnO/ZnS composite can more efficiently quench the PL signal of perovskite absorber than bare ZnO resulting in enhanced photocurrent generation in PSCs.展开更多

A peculiar peak (M+15)was found to appear in the mass spectra of some perfluoroalkyl-substituted methyl esters. It was interpreted to be the result of a CH_3 group transfer to the molecular ion. Magnetic nonequivalence was observed in the ^(19)F NMR spectra of CF_2 group linked to CH_2 in compounds 2t, g and 3t', g which showed a typical AB pattern, and was attributed to the effect of steric hindrance.

文摘The influences of chromium-free chemical conversion treatment and anodizing treatment on bonding strength of AZ31 magnesium alloy were studied by lap-shear test, SEM and electrochemical methods. Both chemical conversion treatment and anodizing can increase the bonding strength. The anodizing treatment gives higher bonding strength and better corrosion resistance than chemical conversion treatment. The increase of bonding strength by the treatmetlts may be attributed to the uneven surface structures with micro-pores, resulting in increased bonding areas and the embedding effect.
文摘Cerium sulfate was used as main composite in solution to prepare golden yellow chemical conversion film on magnesium alloy. The influence of solution composition on the surface morphology of golden yellow rare earth conversion film on magnesium alloy was studied by means of SEM; potential-time curves in the formation process of rare earth conversion film and the anti-corrosion property of the conversion film were tested through ECT. The results show that, when there is no other component in the solution besides cerium sulfate, yellow film can be obtained on magnesium alloy, but there are some dusts on the film surface and the solution is not stable. The stability of cerium sulfate solution increases with adding hydrogen peroxide, while the film is thin and its color turn light. After adding combination additive containing Al 3+, smooth and compact golden yellow film was obtained on magnesium alloy. The polarization curves tested in 3.5% NaCl solution show that the anti-corrosion property of magnesium alloy is increased obviously by rare earth conversion film, and the film has self-repairing capability in the corrosion process.

文摘Liquid chemical looping technology is an innovation of chemical looping conversion technology.Using liquid metal oxide as the oxygen carrier during gasification process could prolong the service life of oxygen carrier and improve the process efficiency.In this paper,based on Gibbs minimum free energy method,the thermodynamic characteristics of biomass liquid chemical looping gasification were studied.Cellulose and lignin,the main components of biomass,were taken as the research objects.Bismuth oxide and antimony oxide were selected as liquid oxygen carriers.The results showed that when the temperature increased from 600℃to 900℃,the output of H_(2)and CO in the products of cellulose gasification increased from 0.5 and 0.3 kmol to 1.3 and 2.6 kmol respectively.Different ratios of oxygen carriers to gasification raw materials had the best molar ratio.The addition of steam in the system was beneficial to the increase of H_(2)content and the increase of H_(2)/CO molar ratio.Bi_(2)O_(3)and Sb_(2)O_(3)with different mass ratios were used as mixed oxygen carriers.The simulation results showed that the gasification temperature of biomass with different mixed oxygen carriers had the same equilibrium trend products.It could be seen from the results of product distribution that the influence of the mixing ratio of Bi_(2)O_(3)and Sb_(2)O_(3)on gas product distribution could be neglected.These results could provide simulation reference and data basis for subsequent research on liquid chemical looping gasification.

文摘Electron transport layers (ETLs) in perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are a key factor to determine the photo- voltaic performance. Herein, we demonstrate preparation of ZnO/ZnS core-shell composites through di- rectly synthesizing ZnS on the ZnO nanoparticles in solution. We confirmed the formation of ZnO/ZnS core-shell composites by the uses of X-ray diffraction patterns and the Fourier transform infrared spec- troscopy. ZnO/ZnS composites exhibit much homogeneous surface morphology as compared with the bare ZnO as revealed in the scanning electronic microscopy. Moreover, the upper shift of conduction band level upon composition of the ZnO/ZnS film results in a better alignment of energy level, which facilitates cas- cade charge extraction and thus improves the current density of perovskite solar cell. The shift of conduc- tion band also improves the voltage of the PSCs. The photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopies measured in both steady and transient states were carried out to characterize the charge extraction at the interface between CH_3NH_3Pbl_3 and the electron transport layers of either ZnO or ZnO/ZnS composite. The ZnO/ZnS composite can more efficiently quench the PL signal of perovskite absorber than bare ZnO resulting in enhanced photocurrent generation in PSCs.
文摘Solar‐to‐chemical energy conversion is perceived as one of the most potential solutions to the current energy and environmental crisis,yet requires major scientific endeavors on the development of efficient and sustainable photocatalysts.Remolding the composition and morphology of a semiconductor jointly for the purpose of improving photocatalysis efficiency remains challenging.Herein,we rationally fabricated Cu‐doped ZnS nanoframes via a simple conjunct strategy of substitutional doping,chemical acidic etching,and sulfidation,aiming at enhancing the light utilization and charge separation/transfer efficiency for solar‐light‐driven hydrogen generation.Cu‐doped zeolitic imidazolate framework‐8(ZIF‐8)rhombic dodecahedrons are transformed to hollow Cu‐ZIF‐8 nanoframes converted to Cu‐ZnS nanoframes with three‐dimensional photocatalytic active surfaces via anisotropic chemical etching,which is further converted to Cu‐ZnS nanoframes.By combining the merits of optimal heteroatom doping and frame‐like open architecture,the obtained 1%Cu‐doped ZnS nanoframe exhibits high photocatalytic activity under solar light irradiation with improved hydrogen production rate up to 8.30 mmol h^(–1) g^(–1) and excellent stability in the absence of cocatalysts,which is significantly improved in comparison with those of the bare ZnS and Cu‐ZnS with different morphologies.This work inspired by merging the merits of metal doping and anisotropic chemical etching may shed light on the rational design and fabrication of advanced photocatalysts.
文摘Research progress is required to be enhanced for those storage technologies which store CO_(2)fast and permanently.However,temporary storage technologies importance cannot be denied to immediately reduce global warming and reduce higher CO_(2)concentration in the atmosphere.Continuous CO_(2)storage facilities,semi-batch and batch pilot plants deemed necessary to build for future survival of the earth planet.Membranes can be used to separate CO_(2)from common flue gases followed by mineral carbonation to convert CO_(2)into stable carbonates.Modifications in cement industry,coal fired power plants,fertilizer industries and other chemical process industries appears essential.
文摘Selective reduction of CO_(2) into liquid products such as ethanol through electrochemical catalysis is promising in storing renewable energy in more deliverable chemicals and balancing the carbon footprint in the environment.However,the lack of efficient catalysts for electrochemical CO_(2) reduction reaction(eCO_(2)RR)makes the promise challenging because the formation of C2+alcohols requires coupling reactions between the shallow reduction intermediates and deep reduction intermediates that are usually difficult to form on uniform catalyst surfaces simultaneously with appropriate transient kinetics.Herein,we report a new strategy for synthesizing bimetallic nanostructures with high densities of interfaced Ag/Cu boundaries,which facilitate the coupling reaction of the high‐oxidation‐number intermediates(CO)formed on the Ag surface and the low‐oxidation‐number intermediates(CHx)formed on the Cu surface.The synthesis relies on the electrochemical reduction of bilayered nanoplates made of silver thiolate and copper thiolate,resulting in Ag/Cu nanostructures exposing Ag surface,Cu surface,and the Ag/Cu interfaced boundaries.Balancing the accessible surface areas of the Ag surface,Cu surface,and Ag/Cu boundaries is beneficial for maximizing the activity and selectivity of eCO_(2)RR towards ethanol production.Faradaic efficiency of forming ethanol has been observed as high as about 50%using the Ag/Cu nanostructure catalyst with molar ratio nAg:nCu of 1:1.Moreover,the promoted coupling reaction at the Ag/Cu boundaries and surface modification with thiolate anions significantly suppress the undesirable hydrogen evolution reaction,particularly at high cathodic potentials,maintaining high energy efficiency for eCO_(2)RR.
