In the present work, the reactive extractions of 4-hydroxypyridine(4-HP) with tributyl phosphate(TBP), di(2-ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid(D2EHPA) and TBP + D2EHPA dissolved in 1-octanol were investigated, respectively. The influences of the initial concentrations of TBP, D2EHPA and TBP + D2EHPA on distribution ratio(D) were discussed, as well as the reactive extraction mechanism were proposed. The obvious intensification effect was observed when the mixture of TBP and D2EHPA was used as extractant. The best extraction conditions were found to be of the molar ratio of D2EHPA and TBP at 2:1 and the equilibrium aqueous pH at 3.50-4.50. D values increased with the increase of the total concentration of TBP and D2EHPA in 1-octanol. Especially, the analysis on the extraction mechanisms clearly indicate(i) TBP in 1-octanol shows negligible reactive extraction toward 4-HP,(ii) D2EHPA in 1-octanol exhibits moderate extraction effect by forming 4-HP:D2EHPA(1:1) and 4-HP:2D2EHPA(1:2) type complexes, while(iii) D2EHPA in TBP/1-octanol demonstrates the maximum distribution ratio with the 4-HP:D2EHPA(1:1) type complex domination. The discussion provides new insights on the mechanism and opens a new way for the intensified extraction of amphoteric organic compounds by using the mixture of multiple extractants in the diluent.展开更多

文摘Eu^(2+) and Mn^(2+) co-activated CaAlSiN_(3) red phosphors were produced using the solid-state reaction tech⁃nique in a N2 environment.Excitation spectra,emission spectra,and diffuse reflection spectra were used to study the luminescence characteristics,energy gap,and thermal stability in detail.CaAlSiN_(3)∶Eu^(2+) exhibits an extended emission band when stimulated with 450 nm blue light,which is caused by the 4f65d to 4f7 transition of Eu^(2+).Similar⁃ly,CaAlSiN_(3)∶Mn^(2+) displays a wide emission band centered at 628 nm,which results from Mn^(2+)’s transition from 4T1(4G) to 6A1(6S).When the ions of Mn^(2+)were combined into CaAlSiN_(3)∶Eu^(2+),the photoluminescence intensity of Eu^(2+ )was greatly boosted because there was energy transfer and co-emission between Mn^(2+) and Eu^(2+).Beyond that,CaAlSiN_(3)∶Eu^(2+),Mn^(2+) emerges with splendid thermostability and high quantum efficiency,the quenching temperature surpasses 300℃,and the internal quantum efficiency is determined to be around 84.9%.The white LED was pack⁃aged with a combination of CaAlSiN_(3)∶Eu^(2+),Mn^(2+),LuAG∶Ce3+ and a blue chip.At a warm white-light corresponding color temperature(3009 K) with CIE coordinates(0.4223,0.3748),the color rendering index Ra has reached 93.2.CaAlSiN_(3)∶Eu^(2+),Mn^(2+) would have great application potential as a red-emitting phosphor for white LEDs.

文摘Cement,phosphorous slag(PS),and steel slag(SS)were used to prepare low-carbon cementitious materials,and triisopropanolamine(TIPA)was used to improve the mechanical properties by controlling the hydration process.The experimental results show that,by using 0.06%TIPA,the compressive strength of cement containing 60%PS or 60%SS could be enhanced by 12%or 18%at 28 d.The presence of TIPA significantly affected the hydration process of PS and SS in cement.In the early stage,TIPA accelerated the dissolution of Al in PS,and the formation of carboaluminate hydrate was facilitated,which could induce the hydration;TIPA promoted the dissolution of Fe in SS,and the formation of Fe-monocarbonate,which was precipitated on the surface of SS,resulting in the postponement of hydration,especially for the high SS content.In the later stage,under the continuous solubilization effect of TIPA,the hydration of PS and SS could refine the pore structure.It was noted that compared with portland cement,the carbon emissions of cement-PS-TIPA and cement-SS-TIPA was reduced by 52%and 49%,respectively.
文摘The phosphors of KY_(1-x)(MoO_(4))_(2-y)(WO_(4))y:xLn^(3+)(Ln^(3+)=Tm^(3+),Dy^(3+),Eu^(3+))were synthesized by using a sol-gel method.Then,the crystal structure,luminescence properties,energy transfer,and white emission of the prepared materials were researched.The molar ratio of the anion group on the photoluminescence(PL)emission and excitation intensity were investigated,revealing that the optimum intensity could be obtained by using=3:1.The optimal Dy^(3+) doping concentration of KY(MoO_(4))1.5(WO4)0.5was obtained.In addition,the color-tunable emissions of Dy^(3+)/Eu^(3+)-codoped KY(MoO_(4))1.5(WO4)0.5phosphors were observed because of the effective energy transfer(ET)from Dy^(3+)to Eu^(3+)ions.Finally,by doping appropriate concentrations of Tm^(3+),Dy^(3+),and Eu^(3+)and different concentrations of(WO_(4))^(2-),white light emitting phosphors KY_(0.92)(WO_(4))2:0.01Tm^(3+),0.06Dy^(3+),0.01Eu^(3+)with excellent color-rending properties were obtained.The chromaticity coordinate was calculated as(x=0.3238,y=0.3173),closing to the artificial daylight(D65,x=0.313,y=0.329)illuminant,and which indicates the potential application of near ultraviolet White light-emitting diodes(WLEDs).

文摘Doping in Si nanocrystals is an interesting topic and directly studying the distribution of dopants in phosphorous/boron co-doping is an important issue facing the scientific community.In this study,atom probe tomography is performed to study the structures and distribution of impurity in phosphorous/boron co-doped Si nanocrystals/SiO_(2) multilayers.Compared with phosphorous singly doped Si nanocrystals,it is interesting to find that the concentration of phosphorous in co-doped samples can be significantly improved.Theoretical simulation suggests that phosphorous-boron pairs are formed in co-doped Si nanocrystals with the lowest formation energy,which also reduces the formation energy of phosphorous in Si nanocrystals.The results indicate that co-doping can promote the entry of phosphorous impurities into the near-surface and inner sites of Si nanocrystals,which provides an interesting way to regulate the electronic and optical properties of Si nanocrystals such as the observed enhancement of conductivity and sub-band light emission.

文摘Owing to their high luminous efficiency and tunable emission in both red light and far-red light regions,Mn^(4+)ion-activated phosphors have appealed significant interest in photoelectric and energy conversion devices such as white light emitting diode(W-LED),plant cultivation LED,and temperature thermometer.Up to now,Mn^(4+)has been widely introduced into the lattices of various inorganic hosts for brightly redemitting phosphors.However,how to correlate the structure-activity relationship between host framework,luminescence property,and photoelectric device is urgently demanded.In this review,we thoroughly summarize the recent advances of Mn^(4+)doped phosphors.Meanwhile,several strategies like co-doping and defect passivation for improving Mn^(4+)emission are also discussed.Most importantly,the relationship between the protocols for tailoring the structures of Mn^(4+)doped phosphors,increased luminescence performance,and the targeted devices with efficient photoelectric and energy conversion efficiency is deeply correlated.Finally,the challenges and perspectives of Mn^(4+)doped phosphors for practical applications are anticipated.We cordially anticipate that this review can deliver a deep comprehension of not only Mn^(4+)luminescence mechanism but also the crystal structure tailoring strategy of phosphors,so as to spur innovative thoughts in designing advanced phosphors and deepening the applications.

文摘The efficient separation of amphoteric organic compounds from dilute solutions is of great importance in the industrial field. In the present work, the reactive extractions of 4-hydroxypyridine(4-HP) with tributyl phosphate(TBP), di(2-ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid(D2EHPA) and TBP + D2EHPA dissolved in 1-octanol were investigated, respectively. The influences of the initial concentrations of TBP, D2EHPA and TBP + D2EHPA on distribution ratio(D) were discussed, as well as the reactive extraction mechanism were proposed. The obvious intensification effect was observed when the mixture of TBP and D2EHPA was used as extractant. The best extraction conditions were found to be of the molar ratio of D2EHPA and TBP at 2:1 and the equilibrium aqueous pH at 3.50-4.50. D values increased with the increase of the total concentration of TBP and D2EHPA in 1-octanol. Especially, the analysis on the extraction mechanisms clearly indicate(i) TBP in 1-octanol shows negligible reactive extraction toward 4-HP,(ii) D2EHPA in 1-octanol exhibits moderate extraction effect by forming 4-HP:D2EHPA(1:1) and 4-HP:2D2EHPA(1:2) type complexes, while(iii) D2EHPA in TBP/1-octanol demonstrates the maximum distribution ratio with the 4-HP:D2EHPA(1:1) type complex domination. The discussion provides new insights on the mechanism and opens a new way for the intensified extraction of amphoteric organic compounds by using the mixture of multiple extractants in the diluent.

文摘Electrochemical N_(2) reduction reaction(eNRR) over Cu-based catalysts suffers from an intrinsically low activity of Cu for activation of stable N_(2) molecules and the limited supply of N_(2) to the catalyst due to its low solubility in aqueous electrolytes.Herein,we propose phosphorus-activated Cu electrocatalysts to generate electron-deficient Cu sites on the catalyst surface to promote the adsorption of N_(2) molecules.The eNRR system is further modified using a gas diffusion electrode(GDE) coated with polytetrafluoroethylene(PTFE) to form an effective three-phase boundary of liquid water-gas N_(2)-solid catalyst to facilitate easy access of N_(2) to the catalytic sites.As a result,the new catalyst in the flow-type cell records a Faradaic efficiency of 13.15% and an NH_(3) production rate of 7.69 μg h^(-1) cm^(-2) at-0.2 V_(RHE),which represent 3.56 and 59.2 times increases from those obtained with a pristine Cu electrode in a typical electrolytic cell.This work represents a successful demonstration of dual modification strategies;catalyst modification and N_(2) supplying system engineering,and the results would provide a useful platform for further developments of electrocatalysts and reaction systems.

The K3</sub>MoO2</sub>F<sub>5</sub><sup>.</sup><sub></sub>2H2</sub>O:Mn4+</sup> phosphor has a blocky structure and exhibits sharp red emission at the range of 580 to 670 nm excited by the blue light at 470 nm. The fabricated WLED device at 20 mA current has low correlation color temperature (CCT = 3608 K) and high color rendering index (Ra = 90.1), which can significantly improve the electroluminescence performance of cold WLED devices.
