    The crystallization process of β zeolite has been investigated by using FT IR, XRD, TG, SEM, and ICP AES. The samples were obtained by hydrothermal synthesis at 140 ℃ and chemical composition of the mixture used for synthesis can be expressed as n(Al2O3)∶n(SiO2)∶n(TEABr)∶n(Na2O)∶ n(NaF) ∶n(H2O)∶n =1∶25∶7.5∶2.5∶3.75∶550∶6.25. The crystallization curve of zeolite β exhibits a typical Sshaped characteristic. The typical framework IRabsorptions at 567 and 518 cm-1 have different natures. The former is detected at the beginning of induction period and its intensity changes a little in induction period, but exhibits a direct correlation with crystallinity in growth period. The latter is not detected in the induction period, but exhibits the same trend in growth period. The large amorphous SiO2 Al2O3 particles which are visible at the beginning of crystallization change into small grains during the induction period. n(SiO2)/n(Al2O3) ratio of the solid phases obtained at different synthesis time changes significantly during the induction period, but changes a little in growth period. So the β zeolite crystal nucleus are formed via liquid phase synthesis mechanism. Atypical gel in synthesis of β zeolite is transformed initially into a solid, which contains richer aluminium, minor F- and occluded TEAspecies. The aluminosilicate gel particles are dissolved by F- during the induction period and the transition complex, which has a specific weak X-ray diffraction peak at 2θ=22.8° and specific DTGpattern, is formed at the turning point from induction period to growth period. During the growth period Si and Al transport from the liquid to the solid phase at almost the same rates. F- anion has greater influence on the formation and turning of transition complex.

    LiCl/NaY host-guest composite humidity-sensitive materials have been successfully prepared by dispersion of LiCl into the pores of zeolite. X-ray diffraction(XRD) and IRhave been used to investigate this system. LiCl/NaYmaterials can overcome the serious shortcomings of bulk LiCl, such as stability and durability at high humidity and at high temperature, contamination from dust or oil, etc. After a systematic investigation of LiCl/(NaY, ZSM-5, MOR), we have found that NaYis more suitable to be used as hosts, since NaYis characterized by a three-dimensional open framework structure, and composed of interconnected “super” cages.

    Sb substituted Sm2Fe17-xSbx materials have been synthesized by using modified reduction-diffusion process with superfine Fe metal powder as a starting material. This synthetic route is unique and particularly useful for the intermetallic compounds containing high volatile component. The substitution of Sb to the Sm2Fe17 significantly enhances the magnetic interaction between Fe atoms, which in turn, increases the Curie temperature of the materials. In addition, the chemical stability of Sm2Fe17 can also be improved by Sb substitution.

    Microemulsion electrokinetic chromatography(MEEKC) is a new technique which was employed to separate both basic and acidic proteins simultaneously. Optimum separation conditions were investigated with respect to ionic strength and the composition of microemulsion. The results show that if a stable microemulsion formed, the efficiency of protein separation was slightly affected by the concentration of the background and the composition of microemulsion. The fundamental characteristics of MEEKCwere studied in comparison with micellar electrokinetic chromatography(MEKC). The mechanism of MEEKCwas also investigated. The results show that MEEKCis an alternative way for protein separations with a high efficiency.

    A medium polarity sensitive membrane was prepared by embedding pyrene(Py), a polarity fluorescence probe, into a glutaraldehyde(Glu) crosslinked chitosan(CS) membrane. The composition and thermostability of the membrane were characterized by FTIRand TGAanalysis. It is shown that the composition of the membrane is close to that of CS. The introduction of micro amount of Py and crosslinker has little effect upon the composition of the membrane. However, the Glu crosslinked CSmembrane is more stable toward heating than the uncrosslinked CSmembrane. In addition, the crosslinked CSmembrane is also stable in acidic and basic media. The CS-Glu membrane containing Py was successfully used to monitor the polarities of various solvents including water, ethanol, and ethanol water mixtures. Based upon the measurement of polarity, the prepared membrane was also used to monitor the micellar formation in SDSsolution. Compared with the traditional solution fluorescence probing method, this new method is more simple and convenient, and can be recycled.

    Electroanalytic direct determination of aluminum is a difficult subject because of the highly negative reductive potential of Al(Ⅲ) and interference of H+. But developing methods for the determination of trace amount of aluminum in environmental and biological samples is a hot topic in recent decades owning to the recognition of the potential toxic effects of aluminum. In this paper, the indirect differential pulse voltammetric(DPV) determination of aluminum with L-dopa(3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine) on glass carbon working electrode has been reported. This novel method bases on the linear decrease of DPVanodic peak current of Ldopa with the concentration of aluminum added. Under the optimum experimental conditions (pH8.5, 0.08 mol/Lbuffer solution, 4×10-4 mol/L Ldopa), the linear range and the detection limit are (2—18)×10-7 and 7.6×10-8 mol/L Al(Ⅲ) respectively, the relative standard deviation for 2×10-5 mol/L Al (Ⅲ) is 2.4%(n=10). Anumber of foreign species, especially those necessary components in human body such as ascorbic acid, citrate, phosphate, Fe(Ⅲ), Fe(Ⅱ), Cu(Ⅱ), Zn(Ⅱ), Ca(Ⅱ) and Mg(Ⅱ) for interference have been studied. Satisfactory recoveries have been obtained by applying this method to determining aluminum in biological samples including mineral water, synthetic renal dialysate, urine and hair. The significance of the method and solutions to possible interference encountered in in vivo detection are discussed. Anew direction for further development of the in vivo determination of aluminum is provided in this studies.

Their structures were identified by elemental analysis, IR, UV, 1H NMR, 13C NMRand MS. The UVspectra were used to illustrate the change of compounds Ⅰa_Ⅰd under the irradiation of high pressure mercury lamp. It was found that these compounds undergo two kinds of reactions, the trans cis isomerization and intramolecular photodimerization. The former is fast and reversible, and the latter is slow and irreversible. The speed of intramolecular photodimerization will increase with increasing the length of the carbon chain between the two 2-[2-(5-methylbenzoxazolyl)]ethenyl]phenyl group. The fact that the photodimerization is not affected by oxygen shows that the reaction proceeds through an excited singlet state. It is also revealed that compounds Ⅰa_Ⅰd undergo [2+2] photolysis easily when irradiated under short UVlight. That the intramolecular photodimerization and photolysis of these compounds can repeat many times indicate that these compounds have a high photostability.

    Aseries of new superacid catalysts MCM-41 supported SO42-/ZrO2(SZ) were prepared first by an impregnation calcination method. The variation roles of their texture constructions and acid properties were investigated in detail. It was shown that, a high amount of ZrO2 could result in the damage of the pore system of MCM-41, however, superacid sites could not formed under a low amount of SZon MCM-41. The proper amount of SZis about 40%. The superacidities of samples were increased with the increas|ing of ZrO2 contents. Both medium strong acidities and weak acidities of samples were enhanced with the introducing of SZ. The acidities of samples can be adjusted by changing the amount of SZon MCM-41. This may be valuable in designing catalysts for the cracking reaction of large molecule hydrocarbon.

    The normal, benign and malignant human breast tissues have been studied by means of infrared spectroscopy. Some remarkable spectral differences (shape, peak positions and relative intensities) are observed among these three types of the samples. In the malignant breast tissues, these mainly characteristic changes involve: (1) In comparison with the normal breast tissues, the band near 1162 cm-1 from the stretching modes of C—O(H) group in proteins evidently shifts to a higher wavenumber, which suggests that the intermolecular hydrogen bonds are almost broken; The band near 3310 cm-1 from the stretching modes of the hydrogen bonded N—Hin protein molecules shifts to a lower wavenumber, which indicates that the intensity of the hydrogen bonds on the NH…O=Cis stronger in protein molecules of malignant breast tissues. (2) The intensity of the symmetric stretching modes of νPO2- at 1080 cm-1 from the phosphodiester groups in cellular nucleic acids is remarkably stronger, which suggests that the relative contents of DNAin cancer cellular increase. The symmetric stretching modes of PO3- at 970 cm-1 from the phosphorylated proteins become stronger, which suggests that the relative contents of phosphorylated protein increase. (3) The change of the intensity of collagen bands indicates the increase of its relative contents. This investigation shows that Infrared spectrometry can represent the characteristic of the breast tumor at the molecular level.

    The gas-solid heterogeneous photocatalytic oxidation using TiO2/UVwas conducted, and it was found that the degradation efficiency of NOx in air was very high, reaching 97% in the ranges of experimental concentration. Some factors affecting NOphotocatalytic destruction were investigated. The adsorption of NOx on TiO2 thin film surface in the dark, photocatalytic reaction kinetics and mechanism were studied, and some important conclusions were drawn. The product of NOx photocatalysis was detected to be HNO3 by FTIR. The greater part of HNO3 was adsorbed on TiO2 surface, causing catalyst deactivation, but when the catalyst was washed by water, its activity was regenerated as usual. In the end, NOx photocatalytic oxidation experiments were performed under sunlight irradiation, and NOx photocatalytic degradation yields remained high. The results showed that this process has potential applications to the elimination of NOx from the air.

    By using AFM, the process of the OTSmonolayer formation on glass substrate surface by self assembly from 1×10-3 mol/L OTStoluene solution at 18 ℃ was revealed. The analyses of AFMimages as well as the surface mean roughness Ra of the sample surfaces indicated that, after 15 min reaction a smooth OTSmonolayer with a Ra of 0.156 nm/4 μm2 could be obtained on the glass surface. However, this freshly formed OTSmonolayer was unstable, as the reaction proceeds, the Ra of the monolayer would slightly increase within the succeeding 15 min, and finally keep a constant value about 0.170 nm/4 μm2 even for 2 h reaction. The advancing contact angle measurement showed that after~15 min reaction, a completely hydrophobic surface formed with an advancing contact angle of 105°. Our research also showed that during the initial reaction period, most of the adsorption molecules just adsorbed on the substrate surface physically. But some kinds of very strong combination between a few of adsorption molecules and the substrate surface was established, which was much stronger than physical interaction.

    The influence of benzyl alcohol on the rheology and 1H NMRspectra of CTABof CTAB/KBr micellar system has been investigated. The addition of benzyl alcohol induces the viscosity of 0.01 mol/L CTAB/KBr micellar system to go through a marked maximum. In terms of 1H NMRspectra of CTAB, it is argued that a little amount of alcohol solubilized in the interfacial region of CTAB/KBr micelles will promote these micelles to be longer and overlapping. This process makes the viscosity of the system rise. With increasing alcohol concentration continuously, it will be dissolved in the palisades of micelles and induces the rod-like micelles to be transformed into small sphere ones and disentanglement.

    A Cr layer with thickness of 150 nm was successfully deposited on the surface of diamond particles using DCmagnetron sputtering technique. The interface diffusion and reaction between Cr and diamond was promoted by annealing in the range from 300 ℃ to 600 ℃ in high vacuum. The Auger profile results showed that the width of interface layer was more than 90 nm. A Cr2Ccarbide layer was formed after Cr/diamond annealed above 500 ℃. The formation of Cr2Con the interface was confirmed by Auger line shapes. When the annealing temperature was below 500 ℃ and annealing time less than 4 h, Cr2C3 interface species was formed. Higher temperature and longer time resulted in Cr2Cinterface species. The chemical reaction suggested that there was a strong chemical bond on the interface of Cr/diamond, which was one of the important factors for the high adhesion strength between metal and diamond. The interface diffusion and reaction was governed by the diffusion of carbon from diamond substrate. The activation energy of the interface diffusion reaction was 38.4 kJ/mol. The interface species varied with annealing temperature and time.

    The initial geometrical structures and relative stability of silicon-sulfur clusters(SiS2)n-(n=1—5) are explored by means of density functional theory(DFT) quantum chemical calculations. The effects of polarization functions, diffuse functions and electron correlation are included in those calculations. The electronic structures and vibrational spectra of the most stable geometrical structures of (SiS2)n- are analyzed by the same method. As the result, the regularity of the (SiS2)n- clusters growing is obtained, and the calculated results can be used to predict the formation mechanism of the (SiS2)n- clusters.

    The photo-lummescence behavior of seven kinds of pyrazoline monomer and dimer in solution and film has been studied comparatively in this work, The electro-luminescence properties of the material containing dopant in ELdevice, in which the structure[ITO/TPD/TPBI∶EP/TPBI/Mg∶Ag] was employed, have also been investigated. The results indicated that the ELdevices composed of pyrazoline compounds showed itself a very good ability on the electro-luminescence, especially, of the pyrazoline compound in which a 5-position substitution existed. The devices obtained also showed itself a good stability due to their excellent film formation and high Tg transition temperature of the compounds used. The results demonstrated that the fluorescence quantum yields of mono-pyrazoline compounds in solution were higher than that of pyrazoline dimer. The identical tendency in the emission intensity has also been observed when the ELdevices were composed of them.

    Electrocatalytic performance of the Pt-TiOx /Ti electrode prepared with electrochemical reduction-oxidation method toward the oxidation of methanol has been studied. The experimental results showed that the Pt-TiOx /Ti electrode has a high electrocatalytic activity and good stability for the electrocatalytic oxidation of methanol. By means of electrochemical, XPS, STMand in-situ FTIRtechniques, it was found that one reason for the electrode to exhibit an excellent performance is attributed to the high dispersion between nanosized Pt and TiOx particles. The low adsorption ability of the intermediate derived from methanol, such as linearly adsorbed COspecies on the electrode surface due to the interaction between Pt and TiOx , also results in the excellent performance.

    The dissociative adsorption and electrooxidation of glycine on Pt electrode in 0.1 mol/L NaOHsolutions were studied using cyclic voltammetry and in situ FTIRspectroscopy. The results demonstrated that a strong interaction exists between glycine and Pt surface, leading to dissociate easily glycine on Pt surface at potentials below 0.2 Vto form cyanide and carboxylate ions. The strongly adsorbed cyanide species on the electrode surface can inhibit the oxidation of glycine, and are considered as poison species for the reaction. The oxidation of glycine at potentials above 0.2 Vyielded solution species of cyanate and carboxylate. The cyanide species derived from dissociative adsorption of glycine can be isolated on electrodes of smooth Pt and nanometer thin Pt film supported on glassy carbon(nm-Pt/GC), and has been determined by in situ FTIRSas showing a band at around 2100 cm-1 . The intensity of IRabsorption band of cyanide on nm-Pt/GCsurface is 14 times larger than that on a smooth Pt surface, and the IRband is in the opposite direction to that obtained on Pt surface, confirming the adsorption of cyanide species and the abnormal IReffects. The IRabsorption of cyanate and carboxylate produced in the oxidation of glycine yields infrared bands at around 2169 and 1390 cm-1 , respectively. The present study revealed the interaction between glycine and Pt electrode surface, and suggested the adsorption modes and oxidation mechanism of glycine on Pt electrode as well.

    Density functional theory with the combined Becke 3-LYP exchange-correlation energy function using the 6-31G* basis set was applied to study the structures and vibrational IRspectra of am ino-oxo and am ino-hydroxy forms of guanine. The calculated force fields were corrected by scaling the forces fields over a convenient set of local internal coordinates. The scale factors were determined by least-squares fitting of the theoretical frequencies to the experimental ones of the two parent molecules, isocytosine and imidazole. The predicted vibrational frequencies of two tautomers of guanine were compared with the available observed matrix-isolated IRspectra with mean deviations of about 6.6 cm-1 for amino oxo form and 6.0 cm-1 for am ino-hydroxy form. The results made it possible to give reliable assignments of the IRspectra of isolated guanine. This study shows that the scaled density functional force field approach enables us to give a good interpretation of vibrational spectra of large molecules through the transferability of scale factors.

    The influence of the baked temperature for TiO2 ultrafine particles on the photocatalytic oxidation reaction of SO2 was investigated. The photocatalytic activity of TiO2 baked at 320 ℃ is higher than that at other temperatures(480 ℃, 550 ℃). It may be explained by the surface state of TiO2, increasing the content of surface hydroxyl is helpful to enhance the photocatalytic activity. According to the experimental results, the first order kinetic reaction and the mechanism of the reaction were suggested, also the rate constants and half-life time were reported.

    Crystallographic equivalence of ether and ketone in all para-substituted PAEKs crystallized in form Ⅰ was discussed in this paper. In a word, crystallographic equivalence between ether and ketone groups is tenable when polymer contains only phenyl rings in the repeat unit. If a polymer contains a diphenyl group in the repeat unit, two cases should be distinguished. In the case of PEDEKKand PEEKDK, crystallographic equivalence between ether and ketone linkages is untenable. However, in the case of PEDKand PEDEKDK, crystallographic equivalence between ether and ketone linkages is still tenable.

    A series of polystyrene resin with C60 in the side group were prepared by chloromethylation, azidation and cycloaddition. In these C60-containing polystyrene resins, the C60 contents are about 2.9% , 6.7% and 11% (mass fraction), respectively. With the increase of C60 content in the C60-containing polystyrene resin, the photoconductivity increases obviously. α-NP as the charge transport material is better than DMMP, which proves that it is very important that charge transport material(CTM) match the charge generation material(CGM). If no charge transport layer in the photoreceptor exsist, the polystyrene resin with C60 in the side group could not show any photoconductivity at all.
