The results show that the increasing amount of B203 causes the increase of the contents of [BO3], [BO4] and [SiO4], which deduces the increase of CaB204 and a-SiO2 and the decrease of CaSiO3 correspondingly. No new phase is observed throughout the entire experiments. A bulk density of 2.54 g/cm3, a thermal expansion coefficient value of 11.95× 10-6 ℃-1 （20-500℃）, a dielectric constant er value of 6.42 and a dielectric loss tanδ value of 0.000 9 （measured at 9.7 GHz） are obtained for CBS glass ceramics containing 35%-B203 （mass fraction） sintered at 850 ℃ for 15 min.展开更多

The scanning electron microscopy （SEM）, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy （FTIR）, surface area and porosity analyzer and micro-electrophoresis were used to determine pore structure and surface property.The pillared diatomite attaining the optimal adsorption densities （qe） of Pb^2＋ and Cd^2＋ was synthesized with the following conditions： Addition of pillaring solution containing Al3＋-oligomers with a concentration range of 0.1-0.2 mol/L to a suspension containing Na＋-diatomite to obtain the required Al/diatomite ratio of 10 mmol/g; synthesis temperature of 80 ℃ for 120 min; aging at a temperature of 105 ℃ for 16 h. The adsorption capacities of Pb^2＋ and Cd^2＋ on pillared diatomite increase by 23.79% and 27.36% compared with natural diatomite, respectively. The surface property of pillared diatomite is more favorable for ion adsorption than natural diatomite. The result suggests that diatomite can be modified by pillaring with polyhydroxyl-aluminum to improve its adsorption properties greatly.展开更多

X-ray diffractometry （XRD）, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy （FTIR） and scanning electron microscopy （SEM） were utilized to characterize relevant products obtained in the synthetic procedure. The reaction of Fe2P2O7 and Li2CO3 was investigated by thermo-gravimetric and differential thermal analysis （TGA-DTA）. Fe2O3 is completely reduced to Fe2P2O7 by NH4H2PO4 at 700 ℃ and Fe2P2O7 fully reacts with Li2CO3 to form LiFePO4 in the temperature range of 663.4-890 ℃. The primary particles of LiFePO4/C samples prepared at 670, 700 and 750 ℃ respectively exhibit uniform morphology and narrow size distribution, 0.5-3 μm for those obtained at 670 and 700 ℃ and 0.5-5 μm for those obtained at 750 ℃. LiFePO4/C （carbon content of 5.49%, mass fraction） made at 670 ℃ shows an appreciable average capacity of 153.2 mA·h/g at 0.1C in the first 50 cycles.展开更多

The ZnO precursors were calcined at 450 ℃ for 3 h to, synthesize ZnO nanoparticles. The composition of the precursors and the formation mechanism of ZnO were studied by thermogravimetric analysis and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The results of X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy and scanning electron microscopy of the ZnO powders demonstrate that high-purity zincite ZnO nanoparticles are synthesized. Orthogonal experiments were performed to find out the optimal conditions for the maximum yield and the minimum size. The ettect of temperature on the size ofZnO nanoparticles was investigated.

The results show that the increasing amount of alkali oxides in the glass causes the decrease of [SiO4], which results in the decrease of the continuity of glass network, and leads to the decrease of the softening temperature Tf of the samples and the increasing trend of crystallization. And that deduces corresponding rise of densification, dielectric constant, dielectric loss of the low temperature co-fired ceramic （LTCC） materials and the decrease of its thermal conductivity. By contrast, the borosilicate glass/A1203 composites with 1.5% （mass fraction） alkali oxides sintered at 875 ℃ for 30 rain exhibit better properties of a bulk density of 2.79 g/cm3, a porosity of 0.48%, a 2 value of 2.28 W/（m.K）, a er value of 7.82 and a tand value of 9.1 × 10-4 （measured at 10 MHz）.展开更多

The microstructure of MCM-41-（CH2）3Cl was characterized by the means of X-ray diffraction （XRD）, nitrogen absorption-desorption, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy （FT-IR）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM）, and transmission electron microscopy （TEM）. The results show that a successful synthesis of MCM-41-（CH2）3Cl with well structure is obtained. The optimal microwave power is 120 W and the best microwave time is 50 rain. The dosage of chloropropyltriethoxysilane on the structure of chloropropyl-functionalzed MCM-41 was also investigated. It is found that the chloropropyltriethoxysilane volume between 0.8 mL and 1.6 mL is favorable for the formation of highly ordered MCM-41-（CH2）3Cl mesostructure.展开更多

In order to improve oil adsorption capacity, corn cob was modified with lauric acid and ethanediol. The structure of raw and modified corn cob was investigated using Fourier transform infrared(FTIR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy(SEM), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller(BET) method, thermogravimetric analysis(TGA) and Ze Ta potential analyzer. The effects of p H level, adsorption time, adsorbent dosage, and initial oil concentration on oil absorbency of corn cob were studied. The results indicate that the modification significantly improved the lipophilicity of corn cob, making the modified corn cob with much better adsorption capacity on oil absorbency. Compared with raw corn cob, the maximum saturated adsorption capacity of modified corn cob is 16.52 mg/g at p H 5, and the increasing percentage is found to be 141%, which indicates that the modification causes a better adsorption capacity for oil removal. In addition, due to high oil adsorption capacity, affordable price and low secondary pollution, the modified corn cob could be considered promising alternative for the traditional oil adsorbent to clean up the emulsified oily water.展开更多
