Preparation of hollow CuO@SiO2 spheres and its catalytic performances for the NO + CO and CO oxidation.

ABSTRACT: The hollow CuO@SiO2 spheres with a mean diameter of 240 nm and a thin shell layer of about 30 nm in thickness was synthesized using an inorganic SiO2 shell coating on the surface of Cu@C composite that was prepared by a two-step hydrothermal method. The obtained hollow CuO@SiO2 spheres were characterized by ICP-AES, nitrogen adsorption-desorption, SEM, TEM, XRD, H2-TPR, CO-TPR, CO-TPD and NO-TPD. The results revealed that the hollow CuO@SiO2 spheres consist of CuO uniformly inserted into SiO2 layer. The CuO@SiO2 sample exhibits particular catalytic activities for CO oxidation and NO + CO reactions compared with CuO supported on SiO2 (CuO/SiO2). The higher catalytic activity is attributed to the special hollow shell structure that possesses much more highly dispersed CuO nanocluster that can be easy toward the CO and NO adsorption and the oxidation of CO on its surface.

Preparation of hollow iron/halloysite nanocomposites with enhanced electromagnetic performances.

Project description:Nanostructures loaded on halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) have attracted global interest, because the nanotubular HNTs could extend the range of their potential applications. In this study, we fabricated a novel nanocomposite with hollow iron nanoparticles loaded on the surface of HNTs. The structure of the iron nanoparticles can be adjusted by ageing time. Owing to the increased remnant magnetization and coercivity values, the nanocomposites loaded with hollow iron nanoparticles showed better electromagnetic performance than that with solid iron nanoparticles. This study opens a new pathway to fabricate halloysite nanotubular nanocomposites that may gain applications in the catalytic degradation of organic pollutants and electromagnetic wave absorption.

Excellent Catalytic Performances of a Au/C-CuO Binary System in the Selective Oxidation of Benzylamines to Imines under Atmospheric Oxygen.

Project description:A green method of the oxidation of benzylamines to imines was developed using a novel binary system of Au/C-CuO. This system was evaluated under atmospheric oxygen, and the corresponding imines were obtained in up to 100% yields by loading 0.006 mol % of Au/C and 1.25 mol % of CuO under mild conditions. This system was also successfully applied to the syntheses of N-containing functional molecules, as well as that of imines on the scale of several grams. Furthermore, the turnover number of the system (more than 8000 times on a gold basis) as well as its ability to be reused more than 10 times for benzylamine oxidation demonstrates the excellent durability and recyclability of the developed system.

Synthesis of CuO and Cu3N Nanoparticles in and on Hollow Silica Spheres.

Project description:Copper oxide nanoparticles within hollow mesoporous silica spheres were prepared by binding/adsorbing Cu2+ or [Cu(NH3)4(H2O)2]2+ ions on the surface of carbon spheres, followed by formation of a mesoporous silica shell by sol-gel processing and calcination in air. The CuO nanoparticles can subsequently be converted into Cu3N nanoparticles by nitridation with ammonia. The effect of the different copper precursors, i.e. Cu2+ and [Cu(NH3)4(H2O)2]2+, on the nanocomposites was studied. CuO nanoparticles on the outer surface of hollow silica spheres were obtained by thermal treatment of hollow CuSiO3 spheres in air. Nitridation of the CuSiO3 spheres with ammonia resulted in Cu3N@SiO2 composites, with aggregated Cu3N nanoparticles on hollow silica spheres.

Effects of the Crystalline Properties of Hollow Ceria Nanostructures on a CuO-CeO2 Catalyst in CO Oxidation.

Project description:The development of an efficient and economic catalyst with high catalytic performance is always challenging. In this study, we report the synthesis of hollow CeO2 nanostructures and the crystallinity control of a CeO2 layer used as a support material for a CuO-CeO2 catalyst in CO oxidation. The hollow CeO2 nanostructures were synthesized using a simple hydrothermal method. The crystallinity of the hollow CeO2 shell layer was controlled through thermal treatment at various temperatures. The crystallinity of hollow CeO2 was enhanced by increasing the calcination temperature, but both porosity and surface area decreased, showing an opposite trend to that of crystallinity. The crystallinity of hollow CeO2 significantly influenced both the characteristics and the catalytic performance of the corresponding hollow CuO-CeO2 (H-Cu-CeO2) catalysts. The degree of oxygen vacancy significantly decreased with the calcination temperature. H-Cu-CeO2 (HT), which presented the lowest CeO2 crystallinity, not only had a high degree of oxygen vacancy but also showed well-dispersed CuO species, while H-Cu-CeO2 (800), with well-developed crystallinity, showed low CuO dispersion. The H-Cu-CeO2 (HT) catalyst exhibited significantly enhanced catalytic activity and stability. In this study, we systemically analyzed the characteristics and catalyst performance of hollow CeO2 samples and the corresponding hollow CuO-CeO2 catalysts.

Oxidation of Benzyl Alcohol Using Cobalt Oxide Supported Inside and Outside Hollow Carbon Spheres.

Project description:Cobalt oxide nanoparticles (6 nm) supported both inside and outside of hollow carbon spheres (HCSs) were synthesized by using two different polymer templates. The oxidation of benzyl alcohol was used as a model reaction to evaluate the catalysts. PXRD studies indicated that the Co oxidation state varied for the different catalysts due to reduction of the Co by the carbon, and a metal oxidation step prior to the benzyl alcohol oxidation enhanced the catalytic activity. The metal loading influenced the catalytic efficiency, and the activity decreased with increasing metal loading, possibly due to pore filling effects. The catalysts showed similar activity and selectivity (to benzaldehyde) whether placed inside or outside the HCS (63 % selectivity at 50 % conversion). No poisoning was observed due to product build up in the HCS.

Necklace-like NiO-CuO Heterogeneous Composite Hollow Nanostructure: Preparation, Formation Mechanism and Structure Control.

Project description:Composite hollow nanostructure composed by transition metal oxides are promising materials in electrochemistry, catalyst chemistry and material science. In this contribution, necklace-like NiO-CuO heterogeneous composite hollow nanostructures were synthesized by annealing Ni/Cu superlattice nanowires in air. Two kinds of morphologies including CuO nanotube linked core-shell structures and CuO nanotube linked hollow structures were obtained. The structure can be tuned easily by adjusting the relative length of Cu segments in Ni/Cu superlattice nanowires and the annealing temperature. The relative diffusion amount of Cu to Ni segments was proved to be the key factor to influence the annealed sample morphology. The formation mechanism was discussed in detail based on Kirkendal effect and high temperature oxidation of alloy. We demonstrated that hollow structure or core-shell structure is related to whether the oxidation exists only in external sites or co-exists in external and internal sites during annealing.

Encapsulating Pd nanoparticles in double-shelled graphene@carbon hollow spheres for excellent chemical catalytic property.

Project description:Double-shelled hollow carbon spheres with reduced graphene oxide (RGO) as inner shell and carbon (C) layer as outer shell have been successfully designed and prepared. This tailor-making structure acts as an excellent capsule for encapsulating with ultrafine Pd nanoparticles (Pd NPs), which could effectively prevent Pd NPs from aggregation and leaching. As a result, the as-obtained RGO@Pd@C nanohybid exhibits superior and stable catalytic performance. With the aid of RGO@Pd@C, the reduction reaction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) to 4-aminophenol with NaBH4 as reducing agent can be finished within only 30 s, even the content of Pd is as low as 0.28 wt%. As far as we know, RGO@Pd@C is one of the most effective catalyst for 4-NP reducing reaction up to now.

Hollow terbium metal-organic-framework spheres: preparation and their performance in Fe3+ detection.

Project description:Hollow metal-organic framework (MOF) micro/nanostructures have been attracting a great amount of research interest in recent years. However, the synthesis of hollow metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is a great challenge. In this paper, by using 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid (H3BTC) as the organic ligand and 2,5-thiophenedicarboxylic acid (H2TDC) as the competitive ligand and protective agent, hollow terbium MOFs (Tb-MOFs) spheres were synthesized by a one-pot solvothermal method. By comparing the morphology of Tb-MOFs in the presence and absence of H2TDC, it is found that H2TDC plays a key role in the formation of the hollow spherical structure. Single crystal analyses and element analysis confirm that H2TDC is not involved in the coordination with Tb3+. Interestingly, Tb-MOFs can be used as the luminescent probes for Fe3+ recognition in aqueous and N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) solutions. In aqueous solution, the quenching constant (K SV) is 5.8 × 10-4 M-1, and the limit of detection (LOD) is 2.05 μM. In DMF, the K SV and LOD are 9.5 × 10-4 M-1 and 0.80 μM, respectively. The sensing mechanism is that the excitation energy absorption of Fe3+ ions reduces the energy transfer efficiency from the ligand to Tb3+ ions.

Metallic Sn spheres and SnO2@C core-shells by anaerobic and aerobic catalytic ethanol and CO oxidation reactions over SnO2 nanoparticles.

Project description:SnO2 has been studied intensely for applications to sensors, Li-ion batteries and solar cells. Despite this, comparatively little attention has been paid to the changes in morphology and crystal phase that occur on the metal oxide surface during chemical reactions. This paper reports anaerobic and aerobic ethanol and CO oxidation reactions over SnO2 nanoparticles (NPs), as well as the subsequent changes in the nature of the NPs. Uniform SnO2@C core-shells (10 nm) were formed by an aerobic ethanol oxidation reaction over SnO2 NPs. On the other hand, metallic Sn spheres were produced by an anaerobic ethanol oxidation reaction at 450 °C, which is significantly lower than that (1200 °C) used in industrial Sn production. Anaerobic and aerobic CO oxidation reactions were also examined. The novelty of the methods for the production of metallic Sn and SnO2@C core-shells including other anaerobic and aerobic reactions will contribute significantly to Sn and SnO2-based applications.

Facile synthesis of palladium nanoparticles on hierarchical hollow silica spheres and its catalytic properties in Suzuki-reaction.

Project description:A novel well-dispersed Pd@HHSS catalyst was synthesized by reduction of Pd(OAc)2 immobilized on HHSS we reported. When the ratios of Pd/SiO2 were 5 : 100 and 10 : 100, the Pd nanoparticles size was about 5-10 nm. The Pd@HHSS catalyst (Pd/SiO2 = 10 : 100) showed high catalytic activity in Suzuki-reaction with yields of 91-99% and the catalyst is reusable after four successive cycles without obvious loss of catalytic activity.
