a new type of magnetically-recoverable catalyst was synthesized by the immobilization of h3pw12o40 on the surface of silica-encapsulated -fe2o3 nanoparticles. a series of novel 1,3,5-triaryl pyrazoline derivatives has been synthesized by the reaction of chalcone and phenylhydrazine in the presence of the -fe2o3@sio2-pw12nanoparticles,  in high yields. the structures of compounds obtained were...

Energy density can be substantially raised and even maximized if the bulk of an electrode material is fully utilized. Transition metal oxides based on conversion reaction mechanism are imperative choice due to either constructing nanostructure or intercalation pseudocapacitance with their intrinsic limitations. However, utilization transition hindered by poor understanding atomic-level mechanis...

A microwave hydrothermal method is developed for the synthesis of iron oxides, α-Fe2O3, β-FeOOH, and the junction of α-Fe2O3-β-FeOOH. This method is absolutely organic-free, and various structures could be obtained simply by changing the use of the iron source and NaOH. The as-prepared sea urchin-like β-FeOOH exhibits excellent catalytic performance for the degradation of methylene blue (MB) in...

While preparation of metal oxide from metal organic frameworks (MOFs) has been widely studied, crystal growth via thermal decomposition of MOFs in a confined space is rarely investigated. We demonstrate a confinement effect on the crystal growth via pyrolysis of MOFs at high temperature. Iron containing MOF (Fe-MIL-88A) was calcined inside a SiO2. The crystalline phase, particle size, morpholog...

ZnO-Fe2O3 mixed oxides and supported gold nanocatalysts were prepared by using coprecipitation and deposition–precipitation methods, respectively. Cinnamaldehyde hydrogenation over various ZnO-Fe2O3 mixed oxides supported gold nanocatalysts have been investigated at 140 ◦C and a hydrogen pressure of 1.0 MPa. The molar ratio of Fe to Zn was found to greatly affect the selective hydrogenation cat...

The process of reductive dissolution of α-Fe2O3, Ba-hexaferrite, α-FeOOH, γ-Fe2O3, γ-FeOOH, and ferrihydrite can be monitored continuously by abrasive stripping voltammetry and chronoamperometry to obtain information about homogeneity of reactivity and about the particle size of the pure phases and mixtures. Phase parameters (rate constant and charge transfer coefficient) and the geometrical fa...

Magnetic nanoparticles are frequently coated with SiO2 to improve their functionality and bio-compatibility in a range of biomedical and polymer nanocomposite applications. In this paper, a scalable flame aerosol technology is used to produce highly dispersible, superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles hermetically coated with silica to retain full magnetization performance. Iron oxide partic...

Fe2O3/ZSM-5 modified with Ce via citrate route (sol-gel approach) is applied for H2S removal in 500–700 ◦C temperature range. The sulfidation activity of Fe2O3/ZSM-5 is appreciably promoted by introduction of Ce plausibly attributed to the synergy of Fe2O3 and CeO2. 5Fe5Ce/ZSM-5 performs the optimal desulfurization behavior at 600 ◦C with sulfur capacity of 1020 μmol S/g, and the sulfidation pr...
