To reveal the effect of Co-doping on the electrochemical performance of micro-sized LiNi 0.5 Mn 1.5 O 4 (LNMO), undoped LNMO and Co-doped LiCo 0.1 Ni 0.45 Mn 1.45 O 4 (LCoNMO) are synthesized via a PVP-combustion method and calcined at 1000 °C for 6h. SEM and XRD analyses suggest that Co-doping decreases the particle size and
Silica supported sulfuric acid (SSA) has been demonstrated to be capable of effectively removing phenyl VOCs through the reaction-type adsorption mechanism. The effects of the solvent (water, ethyl acetate) used to impregnate silica gel with H2SO4 solution in order to prepare SSA adsorbents have been studied. As-prepared two series SSA(E)-x and SSA(W)-x materials (x = 1, 2, 3, 4) were characterized by TG, SEM/EDS and N2 adsorption/desorption techniques, and their breakthrough adsorption performances were evaluated from experimental and theoretical aspects. The results showed that the H2SO4 loading amounts were 2.8, 4.0, 4.8 and 5.6 mmol g−1 respectively for both SSA(E)-x and SSA(W)-x when x equaled 1, 2, 3, 4. Among them, SSA(E)-4 was found to have a higher proportion of the C-state H2SO4 than SSA(W)-4. Both SSA(E)-x and SSA(W)-x exhibited significant removal capacity of gaseous o-xylene. The reactive temperature regions were determined to be 120–170 °C for SSA(E)-4 and 120–160 °C for SSA(W)-4 with a common optimum point of 160 °C. Both SSA(E)-x and SSA(W)-x adsorbents exhibited excellent recyclability and reuse performance. Further, the series SSA(E)-x materials outperformed the series SSA(W)-x on all adsorption performance metrics, suggesting that ethyl acetate is a preferred solvent for preparing the SSA materials in phenyl VOCs removal application.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
