Adsorption of Alkaline Copper Quat Components in Wood-mechanisms and Influencing FactorsLee, Myung Jae 31 August 2011 (has links)
Mechanisms of adsorption of alkaline copper quat (ACQ) components in wood were investigated with emphasis on: copper chemisorption, copper physisorption, and quat adsorption. Various factors were investigated that could affect the adsorption of individual ACQ components in red pine wood. Copper chemisorption in wood was affected by ligand types coordinating with Cu and the stability of the Cu-ligand complexes in solution. For Cu-monoethanolamine (Cu-Mea) system, the prevailing active solvent species at the solution pH, [Cu(Mea)2-H]+ complexes with wood acid sites and loses one Mea molecule through a ligand exchange reaction. The amount of adsorbed Cu was closely related to the cation exchange capacity of wood. An increase in Mea/Cu ratio increased the proportion of the uncharged Cu-Mea complex and resulted in decreased Cu chemisorption in wood. Copper precipitation is also an important Cu fixation mechanisms of Cu-amine treated wood. X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that in vitro precipitated Cu was a mixture of copper carbonates (azurite and malachite) and possibly Cu2O. Higher concentration Cu-amine solutions retarded the Cu precipitation to a lower pH because of higher free amine in the preservative-wood system. The changes in zeta potential of wood in relationship to the quaternary ammonium (alkyldimethylbenzylammonium chloride: ADBAC) adsorption isotherm showed two different adsorption mechanisms for quat in wood: ion exchange reaction at low concentration and additional aggregation form of adsorption by hydrophobic interaction at high concentration. Because of the aggregation effect, when wood was treated with ACQ, high amounts of ADBAC were concentrated near the surface creating a steep gradient with depth. This aggregated ADBAC was easily leached out while the ion exchanged ADBAC had high leaching resistance. Free Mea and Cu of ACQ components appeared to compete with ADBAC for the same bonding sites in wood.

Tuning the flexibility in MOFs by SBU functionalizationBon, Volodymyr, Kavoosi, Negar, Senkovska, Irena, Müller, Philipp, Schaber, Jana, Wallacher, Dirk, Többens, Daniel M., Mueller, Uwe, Kaskel, Stefan 17 March 2017 (has links) (PDF)
A new approach for the fine tuning of flexibility in MOFs, involving functionalization of the secondary building unit, is presented. The "gate pressure" MOF [Zn3(bpydc)2(HCOO)2] was used as a model material and SBU functionalization was performed by using monocarboxylic acids such as acetic, benzoic or cinnamic acids instead of formic acid in the synthesis. The resulting materials are isomorphous to [Zn3(bpydc)2(HCOO)2] in the "as made" form, but show different structural dynamics during the guest removal. The activated materials have entirely different properties in the nitrogen physisorption experiments clearly showing the tunability of the gate pressure, at which the structural transformation occurs, by using monocarboxylic acids with varying backbone structure in the synthesis. Thus, increasing the number of carbon atoms in the backbone leads to the decreasing gate pressure required to initiate the structural transition. Moreover, in situ adsorption/PXRD data suggest differences in the mechanism of the structural transformations: from "gate opening" in the case of formic acid to "breathing" if benzoic acid is used.

Dynamique d'états électroniques excités à la surface d'un filmMARINICA, Dana Codruta 10 June 2004 (has links) (PDF)
Ce travail de thèse porte sur l'étude de la dynamique d'états électroniques excités à la surface d'un métal recouvert d'une couche ordonnée ultra-mince de diélectrique (Ar). On s'est intéressé à la façon dont cette couche adsorbée modifie les propriétés des deux types d'états excités en surface : états délocalisés (comme états image, résonances image, résonances de puits quantique) et états localisés sur un adsorbat moléculaire (ion négatif transitoire). Pour décrire l'interaction entre l'électron excité et la couche d'Ar on a développé un modèle microscopique tridimensionnel sans paramètre ajustable, qui intègre la structure électronique et géométrique de la couche adsorbée sur métal. Les propriétés des états électroniques délocalisés (énergie, durée de vie, masse effective) sont discutées en fonction de l'épaisseur de la couche d'Ar (entre 1 et 4 mono-couches). Le caractère isolant d'une couche d'Ar très mince, même une seule mono-couche, est mis en évidence. Les résultats théoriques concernant les états image sur Cu(100) recouvert d'Ar sont comparés à des résultats expérimentaux et l'accord est très bon. Sur le même système, on a mis en évidence des résonances de puits quantique qui ont été par la suite confirmées expérimentalement. L'existence et les propriétés des résonances image sur un métal à électrons libres recouvert d'Ar sont aussi discutées. Les propriétés (énergie et largeur) de la résonance N^-_2 (^2 Pi_g) de la molécule d'azote adsorbée sur une mono-couche d'Ar déposée sur métal sont calculées et discutées en termes d'effets locaux(site d'adsorption) et globaux (réflectivité à l'interface Ar-vide).

Untersuchung der Physisorption von Wasserstoff in porösen Materialien mit einer neuartigen volumetrischen ApparaturKhvostikova, Olga 01 April 2011 (has links) (PDF)
Wasserstoff ist der ideale Energieträger, da er völlig schadstofffrei verbrennt und einen potentiell hohen Energiegehalt pro Masse besitzt. Die größte Herausforderung für den Gebrauch von Wasserstoff als Kraftstoff ist die Wasserstoffspeicherung in sicheren und kostengünstigen Systemen.
Die Ziele und Aufgaben der vorliegenden Doktorarbeit sind, poröse Materialien, die unterschiedliche Struktur und Zusammensetzung besitzen, für die Physisorption von Wasserstoff mittels einer neuartigen volumetrischen Apparatur zu untersuchen. Das Erreichen maximaler Speicherdaten stand nicht im Vordergrund dieser Arbeit. Viel wichtiger war es, einen Struktur – Eigenschafts – (Sorptions) – Zusammenhang zu verstehen, auf deren Basis eine systematische Entwicklung von Wasserstoffspeichermaterialien erfolgen könnte. Zwei Klassen von potentiellen Wasserstoffspeichern wurden erforscht: expandierte Graphitmaterialien und Metallorganische Netzwerke.
Neue experimentelle Methoden zur Untersuchung der Wasserstoffspeicherkapazität an modifizierter volumetrischer Apparatur wurden erfolgreich entwickelt und geprüft. Das Verwenden einer der Kammern als Referenzkammer ermöglicht das Ausschließen der experimentellen Artefakte aus der Auswertung der gespeicherten Wasserstoffmenge. Es wurde keine Gaszustandgleichung bei tiefen Temperaturen verwendet, was sehr wichtig bei den Experimenten mit Wasserstoff ist.

Characterization of Cu-Co-Cr-K CatalystsDoan, Phuong Thanh 04 August 2001 (has links)
The production of higher alcohols from synthesis gas over Cu-Co-Cr-K catalysts has been studied. The production rate of alcohol was measured in the flow reactor, operating at 250 to 350°C, 3500 to 8000 gas hourly space velocity, and 900 to 1800 psig. The productivity as a function of temperature, pressure, gas hourly space velocity, carbon dioxide content of the feed, and reaction time was also examined. Physisorption data have been analyzed using the Langmuir model, the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) method, the Barret-Joyner-Halenda (BJH) method, and the de Boer and Halsey t-method. The surface areas of catalysts CB1(1), CB1(3), and CB1(1) after reaction were 39.9 ± .9 m2/g, 28.9 ± 1.7 m2/g, and 26.5 ± 0.3 m2/g, respectively. Moreover, information such as pore size distribution, pore shape, monolayer volume, micropore volume and thickness of adsorption layer were also obtained. The atomic concentration and oxidation states of near surface species were established by X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy.

On the physisorption of water on graphene: a CCSD(T) studyVoloshina, Elena, Usvyat, Denis, Schütz, Martin, Dedkov, Yuriy, Paulus, Beate 02 April 2014 (has links) (PDF)
The electronic structure of the zero-gap two-dimensional graphene has a charge neutrality point exactly at the Fermi level that limits the practical application of this material. There are several ways to modify the Fermi-level-region of graphene, e.g. adsorption of graphene on different substrates or different molecules on its surface. In all cases the so-called dispersion or van der Waals interactions can play a crucial role in the mechanism, which describes the modification of electronic structure of graphene. The adsorption of water on graphene is not very accurately reproduced in the standard density functional theory (DFT) calculations and highly-accurate quantum-chemical treatments are required. A possibility to apply wavefunction-based methods to extended systems is the use of local correlation schemes. The adsorption energies obtained in the present work by means of CCSD(T) are much higher in magnitude than the values calculated with standard DFT functional although they agree that physisorption is observed. The obtained results are compared with the values available in the literature for binding of water on the graphene-like substrates. / Dieser Beitrag ist mit Zustimmung des Rechteinhabers aufgrund einer (DFG-geförderten) Allianz- bzw.

Multiple polymerization – formation of hybrid materials consisting of two or more polymers from one monomerEbert, T., Wollbrink, A., Seifert, A., John, R., Spange, S. 06 March 2017 (has links) (PDF)
Hybrid materials consisting of three different components were synthesized by the polymerization of one heterotrifunctional monomer in just one reaction step using, at the most, one catalyst. The polymerization of 2-furfuyloxy-2-methyl-4H-1,3,2-benzodioxasiline leading to a hybrid material consisting of phenolic resin, poly(furfuryl alcohol), and polymethylsilsesquioxane is, to the best of our knowledge, the first polymerization of this kind. The influence of different catalysts on the polymerization behavior and thus on the structure of the hybrid material was investigated. In accordance with the term “twin polymerization”, which is used for the polymerization of one monomer yielding two separate polymers, this type of polymerization could be called “triple polymerization”. The term “multiple polymerization” is introduced as a general term for the underlying concept of the synthesis of multiple polymers starting from one monomer in one process step. / Dieser Beitrag ist aufgrund einer (DFG-geförderten) Allianz- bzw.
