TL;DR: An Fe-Ce bimetal adsorbent was investigated with X-ray powder diffraction, transmission electron micrograph, Fourier transform infrared spectra, andXPS methods for a better understanding of the effect of surface properties on arsenate (As(V), proving that the adsorption of As(V) by Fe- CeO8 is mainly realized through the mechanism of quantitative ligand exchange.
Abstract: An Fe−Ce bimetal adsorbent was investigated with X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), transmission electron micrograph (TEM), Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) methods for a better understanding of the effect of surface properties on arsenate (As(V)) adsorption. In the adsorption test, the bimetal oxide adsorbent showed a significantly higher As(V) adsorption capacity than the referenced Ce and Fe oxides (CeO2 and Fe3O4) prepared by the same procedure and some other arsenate adsorbents reported recently. XRD measurement of the adsorbent demonstrated that the phase of magnetite (Fe3O4) disappears gradually with the increasing dosage of Ce4+ ions until reaching a molar ratio of Ce4+ to Fe3+ and Fe2+ of 0.08:0.2:0.1 (Fe−Ce08 refers to the adsorbent prepared at this ratio), and the phase of CeO2 begins to appear following a further increase of the Ce dose. Combined with the results of TEM observation, it was assumed that a solid solution of Fe−Ce is formed follow...

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of different concentrations of Na2O on the structure of a composition of fresh C-S-H gels was addressed. And the results showed that the addition of various concentrations of sodium leads to C−S−H gel modification even in the very short term.

TL;DR: The alpha-Fe(2)O(3) with various morphologies has been successfully synthesized via an ionic liquid-assisted hydrothermal synthetic method and is expected to be a useful technique for controlling the diverse shapes of crystalline inorganic materials for a variety of applications, including sensors, gas and heavy metal ion adsorbents, catalytic fields, hydrogen and Li ion storage, and controlled drug delivery.
Abstract: The α-Fe2O3 with various morphologies has been successfully synthesized via an ionic liquid-assisted hydrothermal synthetic method. The samples are characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), transmission electron microscopy, and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. The results indicate that the as-prepared samples are α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles, mesoporous hollow microspheres, microcubes, and porous nanorods. The effects of the ionic liquid 1-n-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([bmim][Cl]) on the formation of the α-Fe2O3 with various morphologies have been investigated systematically. The proposed formation mechanisms have also been investigated on the basis of a series of FE-SEM studies of the products obtained at different durations. Because of the unique porous structure, the potential application in water treatment of the α-Fe2O3 porous nanorods was investigated. The UV−vis measurements suggest that the a...
