Estudo do comportamento térmico dos compostos de Ag+ e Pb2+ com o ligante 1,4-bis(3-carbóxi-3-oxo-prop-1-enil)benzeno

Este trabalho reporta o estudo de compostos binários do dicarboxilato 1,4-bis(3-carbóxi-3-oxo-prop-1-enil)benzeno, C6H4(-CH=CH-CO-COO-)2 , com os cátions metálicos Ag+ e Pb2+, obtidos a partir de soluções aquosas do ligante e dos nitratos dos cátions metálicos, em proporções estequiométricas. Para a caracterização e o estudo do processo de decomposição térmica desses compostos foram empregadas Espectrofotometria de Absorção na Região do Infravermelho com Transformada de Fourier (FT-IR), Análise Elementar (C, H), Complexometria com EDTA, Termogravimetria (TG) e Calorimetria Exploratória Diferencial (DSC).

Structural Effects of Nanotubes, Nanowires, and Nanoporous Ti/TiO2 Electrodes on Photoelectrocatalytic Oxidation of 4,4-Oxydianiline

The present work illustrates the effect of electrolyte composition on the self-organized TiO2 nanotube arrays electrode preparation. The influence of structural and surface morphology of the TiO2 nanotube-like anode on their photoactivity and photoelectrocatalytic performance was also investigated. TiO2 nanotubular array electrodes are grown by anodization of Ti foil in 0.25wt % NH4F/glycerol/water, but nanowires can be obtained in 4% HF-DMSO as supporting electrolyte, even when both are subjected to electrochemical anodization at 30V during 50 h. The morphological characteristics are analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and field emission scanning electron microscope (FEG-SEM). The electrodes were successfully applied in photoelectrocatalytic oxidation of 4,4'-oxydianiline (ODAN) in aqueous solution, as a model of a harmful pollutant. Complete removal of the aromatic amine was obtained after 3 hours of photoelectrocatalytic treatment on nanotubular arrays electrodes.

Thermal, structural and optical properties of new tungsten lead-pyrophosphate glasses

Crystalline lead-pyrophosphate precursor was prepared in aqueous solution from lead nitrate and phosphoric acid and characterized by X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetry and Raman scattering. This crystalline lead-phosphate was then used to prepare glass samples in the binary system Pb(2)P(2)O(7)-WO(3). Dependence of WO(3) content on thermal, structural and optical properties were investigated by thermal analysis (DSC), Raman spectroscopy, UV-visible and near-infrared absorption and M-Line technique to access refractive index values. Incorporation of WO(3) in the lead-pyrophosphate matrix enhances the glass transition temperature and thermal stability against devitrification, favors formation of P-O-W bonds and WO(6) clusters. In addition, optical properties are strongly modified with a redshift of the optical bandgap with WO(3) incorporation as well as an increase of the refractive index from 1.89 to 2.05 in the visible.
